Because a tie could kill two of us.

I guess I'll go watch Walking Dead while JAGs kids are being naughty.

[JAG]

With the elevators inoperable, you begin the long trek up the stairs towards the penthouse of the Ivo Shandor building. About halfway up the stairs, the lights go out and you hear a scream. You hear the whine of proton packs being turned on and weapons firing towards the sound. The lights come back on and you see the remnants of bhlloy lying on the stairs. His body gives no sign of having been supernatural in origin.

You wait for the other shoe to drop, but nothing happens. You continue to climb and all of a sudden hear multiple enormous cracks of thunder. You find renewed energy and head up the stairs until you finally reach the penthouse. Down the hall, you see the suite has an eerie light coming from it. Busting down the door, you realize the room is in massive disarray and the windows have been blown out. Another stairway leads up and you climb it. You see a horrible sight as you reach the top.

Two terror dogs have taken up positions outside of a temple. Two figures are standing before them holding hands while beams of light emmenate from them towards the temple. You realize you have no hope to stop them without extreme action.

Egon, who you realize now is Chubby, turns to Venkman, who you now realize is Autumn:

"The door swings both ways. We could reverse the particle flow by crossing the streams."

"I thought you said crossing the streams was bad."

"There's definitely a very slim chance we'll survive."

There's no time to come to another course of action. They both switch on their proton pack weapons and cross the streams...

(continued)

bhlloy was a Citizen of NYC

[mauchow]

Okay, bad result #1.

[KatyLied]

Boo!

[fontisian]

So Lathum and Katy are definitly wolves. Narc might be a convert. That'll be very helpful if we survive this.

[mauchow]

Lathum saved you Katy, that means you're a wolf.

[KatyLied]

I'm still innocent - Lathum is trying to frame me!

[mauchow]

If they're crossing streams automatically....

[mauchow]

that would mean we're even wolves/villagers...

[Lathum]

wait, what!

I saved her because I knew she was a villager.

We must have been villager-villager

[mauchow]

That would be statistically impossible... or nearly so.

[fontisian]

On the bright side, I always wanted to know what would happen if we crossed the streams.

Me too. Well, sorta.

[fontisian]

Just, not like this. I was kind of of hoping for an explaination after the game.

[JAG]

The beams cross and fluctuate wildly as they aim at the temple. The ghostbusters can barely control their weapons as at last a gigantic blast of energy destroys the temple. The backfire from the blast can't be contained by Egon and he dies in an explosion. The debris from the temple barely misses most of you, but Narcizo and mauchow aren't quite as lucky. Narcizo appears to be a citizen, but mauchow the terror dog is definitely not.

Chubby was Egon Spengler
Narcizo was a Citizen of NYC
mauchow was a Terror Dog

Passacaglia, who you now recognize as the other terror dog, leaps out and slays Autumn, who with his proton pack drained can't stop him. Lathum the Keymaster and KatyLied the Gatekeeper both point at fontisian. Lightning bolts shoot out and kill her where she stands.

The forces of Gozer have won!
hoopsguy wins a major victory for sliming Venkman.

[mauchow]

You just had to kill me..

[mauchow]

I told you Katy, you were a wolf!

You're welcome for getting you included in the victory lap

[mauchow]

Well, I had a blast playing this game, JAG, thanks so much.

And thank you to Chubby who obviously had bum luck.

[Lathum]

hell yeah

[JAG]

Thanks to everyone for playing. I'm sure there will be questions and I'll be happy to answer them. The first one is that the wolves converted Katy after the lynch tonight which brought us to 4-4, which is why we had a cross the streams event. Lathum was indeed the convert N2.

[Lathum]

gotta give MAu mad props, heput a ton of effort into every wolf move and made some really smart plays

[mauchow]

Who were Chubby's three conditional scans tonight?

[mauchow]

JAG, unlock your speculation thread?

[KatyLied]

Dude. I have the vapors!

[JAG]

Chubby was going to scan Pass tonight, so that would've hurt some. If you had had some really bad rolls, it could've even been a forced loss.

Working on it.

[fontisian]

How did the Keymaster/Gatekeeper stuff work?

Erm...thanks for bringing out my inner demon?

[hoopsguy]

No duke, Autumn?

Each of us terror dogs could scan a player each night. Night 2 Pass found Lathum and he was instantly converted.

Then after that I was able to continue scanning one person per night and if I found them they would be instantly converted. Lathum was also able to scan but if he found them I would have to scan her the next night. THis is what happened, Lathum found her the night before and I scanned her tonight...which is why the last minute switcheroo happened.

Hey, you at least lived as a wolf. JAG killed me

[JAG]

The two terror dogs had a scan each night for a convert. If they hit on one, there would be no night kill that night but the convertee would join their ranks (full PM rights). The terror dog that found them lost their scan, however the Keymaster (in this case, since he was found first) gets a scan for the Gatekeeper. The difference with the Keymaster scan is that he can't perform the conversion, so Lathum actually found Katy last night but couldn't convert her. mauchow did that tonight.

[JAG]

Too slow.

[Lathum]

Once we found out who you were it was our priority to keep you from being lynched. We made the decision to take a shot tonight in case Chubby scanned one of us. Always more fun that way.

We were banking on the duke not putting in a conditional order

[mauchow]

Sorry, I won't help anymore. I just had so much fun

[PackerFanatic]

Hooray! Nice job wolves (mau especially)

[mauchow]

Team effort!

[JAG]

The night Chubby changed his scan to murrayyyy, his first option would've ended up scanning mauchow, which would've hurt the wolves as they would've lost their ability to convert Katy. Pass and Lathum still might've been ok though, as Pass had a couple votes on mau earlier and Lathum was reasonably trusted.

[fontisian]

Well done guys. You broke my winning streak though.

Have any of you heard of quicktopics?

[mauchow]

We NK'd you hoops because we saw you were on the right track way too many times. Killing you and Danny on the same die I think was a massive analysis blow for the village.

[JAG]

The D1 lynch had a pretty big impact on the game. Let's say DT reveals early enough to move votes off him. Lathum had the next most votes by three or so towards the end of the day. If he gets voted out, the wolves lose a convertee and have to get through the proton pack to get rid of Ray and maybe Britrock doesn't get killed N1 (an unlisted role ability was that Autumn got to take over the Ray scan if Ray died before him, so britrock might've had a chance to become a Ghostbuster).

The Zinto lynch ended up having a big impact too, since if Katy had been lynched they would've lost that convertee and Chubby would've scanned and cleared Zinto instead of scanning the night kill target.

[KatyLied]

i would just like to note, for the record, my ability to smell a rat (even when I am one).

[mauchow]

Deep down you knew you were the Gatekeeper so you didn't want to push it

[Autumn]

I can't type too much on this stupid thing. But damnit, I had the wolves dad to rights this game! Mau and Pass I pegged you days ago!

I saved the duke, thinking it would be more useful tomorrow, and hoping wolves wouldn't reveal themselves with a move. Never considered that they might have the scan of a convert. Bad move, but I wouldn't have duked to Mau despite my suspicions.
