WW CXXXIX - The Red Death II - GAME OVER, SERVANTS WIN - Page 36

The Jackal · 10-06-2011, 11:06 AM

Exactly, J.

The Jackal · 10-06-2011, 11:08 AM

I'm going to be out running errands most of the day, and then the FLYERS season opens tonight, so I'll be MIA during that watching the game. I might want to decide who to vote for fairly early here, will do my best to check in later but it might be via phone and could be tough to read the presumed loads of info.

dubb93 · 10-06-2011, 11:11 AM

I suspect that with the exorcist still around that means one of three things.

1. There isn't really an exorcist in the game. Unlikely.

2. The wolves are happy with their items that stop exorcisms and as such not worried about him in the slightest.

3. Prehaps they only started with 2 major roles that were able to kill them. They lost NtN on N1 and Zinto was too busy converting to bother with killing him. Now it makes me wonder if they even have anyone left that is able to kill him.

agreed, but I don't want people to also get away with trying to hide that there/is only one side and we lose sight of that too.

I'm going on the probability there is one team that can do one kill and one convert each night, with the convert part dropping off at some point. Who knows, there might be some role(s) with a one time kill attached too.

The PM part is likely for someone who gets converted and can be converted back. That person might get to receive PM through the GM or something like that. You cant let someone know who all the wolves are if they can get converted back. That could also be part of the possession mechanic.

Grammaticus · 10-06-2011, 11:17 AM

I'm going to go ahead and vote bug for now.

Vote MrBug708

I too find it odd the Exorcist has been left alone by the wolves. As far as being able to kill him, I did not see anything in the exorcist role description that indicated a regular night kill would not work. It looks like he does have defense against being converted.

EagleFan · 10-06-2011, 11:24 AM

Place holder vote.

Grammaticus · 10-06-2011, 11:26 AM

Okay, the Exorcist description did say you are immune to attacks from minor undead.

Going to keep things close for now, I am also feeling that possible convert vib from RA.

The Servants must have more than the # of Lightbringers (instead of the usual 1:1 ratio), and they must kill or convert every Exorcist and Minister as well. If, at the end of the game, there is one Servant and one Lightbringer left, a special rule will occur to see who wins based on roles. Lightbringers are no chumps.

There are many items in this game, and every player will begin with a random item, even Servants. The only person who brings items into the game, however, is the Scientist. Each night, once, you may pass an item to a person of your choice, just pm me and let me know. This is processed when Night Actions are processed, but it does not count as a Night Action. Items are passed as the last thing during the evening. Items on a dead person are collected by the Servants.

Some items are obvious – Charms of Protection Against Shapeshifters or Colt Peacemaker. Other items have unknown or more nefarious uses, and you may not immediately know what they all do. There might even be red herrings

Not all Servants may be able to pm each other. There are no hidden Lightbringer roles beyond the Exorcized. There may be more than one of each role. When they are killed, Servants of the Red Death will have both their title and their role and abilities posted in the thread. You are experienced enough that you know what a creature is and all about it.

Okay, the win conditions for the servants requires them to kill / convert every minister and exorcist. That means it would be very important to deal with ministers and exorcists.

Also, the first paragraph kind of contradicts itself. It says the servants must have more than the # of lightbringers. Then goes on to say if there is one of each left there is a special rule. Why, that would be a 1:1 ratio and equal a lightbringer victory, right?

I thing with Dzilla still around, it is very suspicious.

The Jackal · 10-06-2011, 11:42 AM

Well, dzilla can't be converted. Are you saying you think he was lying about being an exorcist?

The Jackal · 10-06-2011, 11:46 AM

I tend to think its more likely the wolves avoided him because they assumed the sheriff would be guarding him, but it's worth keeping in mind, especially since another exorcist wouldn't counter reveal because they have no way of knowing if he is lying or not with the potential for multiple exorcist roles in the game.

Grammaticus · 10-06-2011, 11:49 AM

He may be lying?? But they have to kill him to win the game. The role description looks like he can't be converted and minor undead cannot kill him. I think that role makes him a critical kill for the wolves.

Grammaticus · 10-06-2011, 11:57 AM

Another question. If the Minister and Exorcist are immune to corruption, why does the win conditions specify the servants must kill or convert every Exorcist and Minister? If they are immune to corruption, wouldn't it just say kill?

MrBug708 · 10-06-2011, 11:59 AM

If, at the end, there are 7:7 ratio, the the Servants have to go to 7:6 to win. However, suppose it's at 2:1 Village. The Village must kill ALL Servants to win, so they have to keep playing, but the Servants can't win, because they can;t get more than the One they have left, so the Servants still has a changce by taking it to 1:1 and use a special tiebreaker rule.

dubb93 · 10-06-2011, 12:28 PM

I think he is the D1 convert.

mauchow · 10-06-2011, 12:28 PM

Just my thoughts, some one my have already stated this, but I think there are only two wolf trans in the sense original wolves pm original wolves and converts no pms so if they are exorcised they can't finger any wolves.

I'm not real sure what you are saying here but if you are saying converts don't have PM rights that is unlikely. If is far more likely that there was one rogue wolf with his own victory condition at the start but I think that is unlikely as well.

I think Abe was baiting you with the vague rules and you have fallen hook line and sinker.

FWIW it didn't work the way you laid out last time around either.

4. They were worried he would be protected, took out the Minister on night two and got pissed off with Danny so took him out night three. If the attacks have all been carried out by a werewolf then they have to be worried that the sheriff will block a kill-attempt and kill the werewolf at the same time.

If 3 is true then I don't see how the bad guys can win, unless they get hold of an item or something to do it or have some other means of conversion to create a role that can kill the guy.

I realize you were a wolf last game and have that insight, but because there was a last game I'd have to believe Abe changed things up just to screw people up who think everything will be the same.

Narcizo · 10-06-2011, 01:28 PM

As of 1778

Bug (4) - Commo (1678), dzilla (1701), Grammaticus (1756), EagleFan (1758)
Raiders Army (3) - Thomkal (1708), Autumn (1725), Jackal (1760)
Chief Rum (1) - Narcizo (1718)
CrimsonFox (1) - Dubb (1769)
Abe Sargent (1) - Chief Rum (173)

MrBug708 · 10-06-2011, 01:32 PM

Im almost curious to see what would happen if we all voted fro Abe. Probably nothing but vengeance and the wolves would get a free night action

Narcizo · 10-06-2011, 01:34 PM

I'll probably move my vote over to Bug if no-one moves to Chief in the next hour or so. I'm really not feeling the "Raiders being day one convert" vib. And I'm not a fan of vague semi-reveals as a rule.

Narcizo · 10-06-2011, 01:35 PM

Or go with Abe.

hoopsguy · 10-06-2011, 01:38 PM

Hmm, I'm actually thinking of going back to an earlier vote target of Narcizo's - EagleFan.

I know his schedule is stressed - dealing with same issues here - but I can't think of anything that he has done off the top of my head that would be pro-village.

I want Bug in that runoff to see if anything pops, but I'm less excited about the other candidates I've seen listed so far.

If someone wants to convince me that this is a weak/bad vote, I'll probably be an easy sell. But for now ...

VOTE EAGLEFAN

Thomkal · 10-06-2011, 01:39 PM

I would agree with those saying it doesn't really matter if there are two teams or not at this point-we have to lynch all of them anyway.

I don't mean to come across as all knowing but so far the posted PM's for the wolves roles, especially Zinto, have been nearly identical. I believe you are right in that some things are different. From everything I have seen from the items in play that I know about to the private roles of the wolves that have been posted, the big things are extremely similar. Again I could be wrong here, but everything I have seen so far suggests I am not.

No idea how the Servants may operate, but I think there is enough here to suggest two bad guy teams.

you mean humans and nonhumans? it's possible. I still have no knowledge of how things worked previously but yes it's obvious to me ntn was not a vamp.
I still like the "one wolf doesn't know the rest theory" too.
