I'd rather kill a bad guy than someone claiming to be a just a citizen. Sticking with the vote on Isgrimnur. If I'm wrong, so what? It happens quite a bit on Day One.

Quick Unagi, vote for Isgrimnur. Then Scoop will have two players on the edge of death that he could put the kill vote on. He won't know what to do. He'll get so excited his head will explode.

This is sadly way more amusing than it should be.
Some claim to be things they aren't.
Some claim things they don't deserve.
Some claim to know more than they ever will.
I don't claim anything, because no one would believe the truth anyways.

Yeah, that's about what I figured would happen. Good luck in your future endeavors, you oblivious, murderous bastards. Make sure after you kill me, you get your damned mob off my freaking lawn. Maybe tomorrow you could actually, y'know, take out a bad guy. :tjg:

While discussion is obviously needed, it seems like the strong personalities always dominate and lead. Which is great, until they end up being the evil ones or just plain wrong. Just being erudite does not make one infallible.

Do you want to reward people acting out of character? The consensus seems to be that tru1cy's silence usually keeps him alive. So what actions will you take to his newfound verbosity?

All in all, there's so much baggage and meta stuff in these games that the roles don't really matter unless someone slips up.

Who's in touch with whom?

Assume that Newcastle was not Rachel.

Batman <==> Rachel
Rachel <==> Dent
Joker <==> Ramirez
Joker <==> Sniper
Ramirez <==> Sniper

Who would say "I tried" to whom after attempting to prevent a bandwagon by every means except self-sacrifice?

It follows that
(a) if Isgrimnur is evil, then tru1cy is evil
and
(b) if Isgrimnur is good, and is a member of {Batman, Rachel, Dent}, then tru1cy is an adjacent member of {Batman, Rachel, Dent}.

The only alternative to communication, of course, is scanning.

If Isgrimnur was a good special, and tru1cy was a good special, it would be disastrously stupid to publicly admit that you were trying to prevent the other's death, right?

Had that been the case, why would he have withdrawn from consideration at the last second and secured the other's death?

Of course, if Isgrimnur and tru1cy are both good Specials, a forking sequence unfolds tonight. And when you come to a fork in the road, it's a good idea to take it.
