Open 623 (White Flag) - A Moment in Time (Over)

[AlwaysInnocent]

So, Viva La Gloria could have been scum or town in slot #1, and scum or town in slot #2. There is no transfer of knowledge. So all is good.

[Something_Smart]

Yeah Eagle don't worry, you can see if someone has opened a pm you've sent, so Drixx can confirm that Viva did not.

I like how AI's scumread on Eagle suddenly developed only when Eagle started to get pressured by other players.

...I've been pressuring Eagle for a while?

Pedit: Sorry Eagle I misread your question. I thought you meant why I responded to Titus taking me seriously by saying "lol you guys realize that was a joke right".
I thought Titus's "you're scum with Rhazh" was a joke, so I joked back.

Peditedit: AI, Eagle is right, stop using Wikipedia to defend yourself.

Are you seriously taking suggestions from scum?

Yeah, in order for scum to be believable, they have to be right about some things.

Pedit: no Cakez because Eagle dug himself deeper and deeper as I accused him. And it's not unheard of to be skeptical of a case out of the blue but change your mind once it is explained more or you look at it again.

[AlwaysInnocent]

I assume that scum will be hard defending each other in this game, so... SirCakez, Titus and Eagle could be scum together. But there's TheCow, too.

[Something_Smart]

I don't know about SirCakez and Eagle because Eagle did vote SirCakez when he caught up, but I could see Titus with either one of them. And TheCow with any of them.
Don't forget Yonom either.

[Drixx]

Prodding Pistachi0n.

Viva La Gloria replaces NotAnAlt.

As a note, when replacing someone who doesn't pick up their role PM, I edit the message in the outbox so that said person no longer actually has a role PM. In this case, we have a player who originally signed up and then got busy replacing back in. I have confirmed that they did not see their original role PM and therefore they only have knowledge of the slot they are replacing into. If you have any questions, please drop me a PM. ~Drixx

Oh, I just saw this. Ok. Still, I have a nasty feeling about this.

Does deleting it from your outbox delete it from their inbox? I need to try this.

I don't delete role PMs that don't get picked up. I just edit them. Since it changes from Outbox the Sent Items when someone reads it and since there is no option to check mark a message and "mark as unread", I can be sure that if the message is still in the outbox, it hasn't been picked up. When I replaced the two who didn't originally pick up their Role PM, I edited the messages to say the following: "You failed to pick up your Role PM and confirm in time. I have replaced your slot. I hope to see you in a future game."

In fact, Victor_Mortimer's is still sitting in the outbox, so he has that message instead of a role PM.

I also confirmed with Viva La Gloria that it works that way, and reached out to the list mods to be 100% sure. Unless Viva La Gloria is a site admin with access to the database, there's no way he has seen any Role PM except for the one for the slot he is currently in.

I hope that makes sense. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Love, Drixx

Eh, fuck it.

You know my reads. Please get Eagle tomorrow.

[Something_Smart]

Also TheCow's hammer sucked so you might want to look at him too.
And Yonom, Cakez and Fire (especially if Eagle is scum).

[AlwaysInnocent]

Great quickhammer, TheCow. This surely makes you look town, especially if Something_Smart flips scum.

(Sacasm.)

[Something_Smart]

Well, it's been fun playing with y'all, hope I can improve my day one in future games.
I'll be rooting for town all the way!

[SirCakez]

Yeah I think we lynch Cow tomorrow.

Flip and a bit of flavor coming. Night timer will start when the flip and flavor are posted.

On this day, in 1965, legendary British Prime Minister and Allied Commander Winston Churchill passed away from complications related to a serious stroke. He remains frozen in memory at that moment in time, 70 years to the day after his own father's death.

With the declaration of total war, the small community instantly became paranoid with one another. In an attempt to relieve some of the tension, Something_Smart fell back upon humor, and the majority of the other citizens turned their attention to him. Despite many protestations that he was only kidding and despite his protestations of innocence, fear and paranoia prevented most from listening and believing him. Resigned to his fate, Something_Smart shouted out his last words as he was led to the gibbet and set to dancing the hangman's jig.

Something_Smart, Vanilla Townie, has been lynched.

It is now night phase. Day two will begin in (expired on 2016-01-26 14:00:00), or January 26th at 2:00 PM Eastern (GMT-5)

On this day in 1697, Isaac Newton received rival Jean Bernoulli's 6 month time-limit problem, designed by Bernoulli to embarass Newton and show that Newton had not actually 'discovered' Calculus. Newton solved the problem before going to bed that same night. Bernoulli's problem was an early example of a group or "class" of problems called Calculus of Variations now. To see an example of Bernoulli's solution (and to see whether you could solve the problem), click here.

If maths isn't your thing, it is said that Benjamin Franklin complained greatly on this day that the Bald Eagle was chosen as a symbol of the United States instead of a Turkey.

As the morning dawns, a bit of new history is made in our sleepy little villiage. You all find

Droog

tied to a lamp post, shot to death, with a sign hung around his neck. The sign says

Join us or suffer the same fate.

. Will our heroes join Droog in death, or shall they force a surrender? That yet remains a future moment in time.

Droog was shot to death on Night One: He was a

VOTE: Titus

[Viva La Gloria]

How dare you steal my thunder.

VOTE: Titus

I'm not letting her get away with that cheeky 'SS is 100% confscum sheep me' crap when I and others made every effort to make her explain and support her reads and positions and she refused.
I've considered the fact that she was set up by scum, namedly Pistachi0n and EE, but I think Occam's razor suggests that she's the scum here.
That theory doesn't explain why she was so insistent on lynching SS and refusing to explain or elaborate on any of her other reads either.
Her associatives with Yonom were bizarre and she also had an awful vote on the SS wagon so I wouldn't mind lynching that either.
I was expecting to be night killed or I would have written something up. I'll fill in the rest of my work later.

[pistachi0n]

I'm also suspicious of Titus.

Pedit: yep

[AlwaysInnocent]

Titus' first vote was Something_Smart. It was never changed, neither did Titus' "read" on Something_Smart change. She never doubted herself apparently, even calling Something_Smart confirmed scum at some point. It was nothing more than rationalized voteparking. No-one can give that much importance to a silly joke and completely ignore everything else Something_Smart said.

Yeah. Titus should definitely die.

[SirCakez]

VOTE: TheCow
I like this vote better.

[Viva La Gloria]

VOTE: TheCow

You know you've spent the entire game making excuses for Titus without ever explaining why you townread her.
Now you're trying to create a counterwagon.
You're next bucko.

[SirCakez]

You're probably scum when Titus flips town. I've given my reasons for townreading Titus and you're ignoring them to further your own goals.

[AlwaysInnocent]

VOTE: TheCow
I like this vote better.

Not a bad choice either. You get a cookie for this.

[AlwaysInnocent]

You're probably scum when Titus flips town. I've given my reasons for townreading Titus and you're ignoring them to further your own goals.

Please convince me that Titus is town.
