    Wait. The movie called "City of EMBER". I have seen it. But does it have anything to do with the Chronicles of Amber? Or is that part of the joke that I did not get?

    Yeah. I know who the mayor is from the movie. But I don't him mentioned on the wiki. Maybe I'm missing it?

    I'm complety willing to be voted out if only to serve as living (or rather dying) proof of why nobody should ever listen to B:L, at least not on Day One.

    I will be sure to link people to this thread every time B:L pulls this stunt in the future. I'm being 100% serious here, so it may be worth your while to listen to B:L one last time.

    Remember, B:L, eventually the little boy stops crying wolf. (Because he's been eaten by a wolf...and gets the rest of his village eaten by a wolf.)

    And I'll vote for Pyphor at random who has no votes yet.

    Now the vote is tied between B:L and me.

    I leave it to the thread to decide which one of us is the fruit loop.

    Thanks for reawakening the sleeping bastard inside me, B:L.

    Now no need to throw a tantrum, no one is crying wolf.

    I'm just crying Mole. Which you seem to be acting since if you were helpful to our City of Amber you would have mentioned something to me so we can move the bandwagon somewhere else. Seeing as you haven't, well, you can't blame someone for assuming the worst.


    All I'm doing is stating that I have a vigilante note here and someone is going down tonight. I'd prefer that I'm not in the vote lead when this happens.

    Your inaction actually places you closer to the shenanigans. If you do "nothing" and I end up eating the vote, you jump right up in the suspect list for refusing to save me.

    As a citizen of the City of Amber I encourage taking proper action to ensure the survival of this city and of your Mayor.

You're asking people to understand what B:L is all about... a lot of these people don't know what B:L is capable of.

    I personally think that both Drez and B:L are out of control and I refuse to be a part of this mess.

    Yeah it clearly says

    "And I'll vote for Pyphor at random who has no votes yet."

    Which says pretty concisely that Phyphor, at that time, had zero votes. Not that Phyphor hadn't voted, but that Phyphor had no votes

You're asking people to understand what B:L is all about... a lot of these people don't know what B:L is capable of.

    I personally think that both Drez and B:L are out of control and I refuse to be a part of this mess.

    vagrant_winds is not rubbing me the right way at all. Fix that.

    Well, unless I mistead, B:L is not claiming to be a vigilante, but rather claiming to either have knowledge of or is in control of a vigilante kill. This could mean a few things:


    One, B:L is the vigilante. Risky gambit, especially if you aren't sure there are any guardians, but it's possible.

    Two, B:L had a pregame alliance with the person who turned out to be the vigilante and the person decided to open up to B:L. Really stupid (on the part of the vigilante), but possible.

    Three, B:L didn't have a pregame alliance with the vigilante, but the vigilante decided to contact B:L of all people. Even dumber than the last option, and very unlikely, but possible.

    Four, B:L has an item that can do a one-shot vigilante-like kill. It's happened, and it's possible, and it's even lead to networks being formed before. This is actually a good gambit because the longer you hold on to an item (especially if you are B:L), the less chance you'll have to lose it, and if it's a one-shot kill and you are just a vanillager without it, then . Likely, possible, and I wouldn't put it past B:L to go for this if it's the case. It's definitely the best case scenario.

    Five, B:L is just making shit up. Also possible. And very likely. It happened in the last game he was in. It's happened in a lot of games he's been in.


    The fact is, my initial vote for B:L came before I even read that he voted for me on the previous page. It was never a serious vote. I don't like his attention whoring antics, but I am not convinced he's evil, just crazy.

    As for the dilemma I presented to the village, I wasn't really asking them to choose between B:L and me for execution. The question is really whether or not you think B:L is worth listening to. Whether we vote him out or not is a separate question. Personally, I mislike tactics where someone tries to entirely dominate and control everyone's actions on DAY ONE. You don't need to know anything about B:L or his past or his playstyle really for this to be alarming behavior. It should be, to anyone, for anyone that acts this way. I mean, not only is he claiming to be able to direct a kill at someone, but he's also trying to control the vote. Based on what? He can't possibly have any knowledge or even any substantial argument as to my mafia-ness at this point. So he's basically pissing in the wind and he's trying to piss on me.

    So my opinion is this: Let him become the network mouthpiece if his gambit works out, but other than that why on Earth would anyone follow his lead today? I don't think you really need to know anything about B:L


    I do kind of have a spidey-sense tingling in the same way you do, Grundl, so !retract Pyphor and vagrant_winds too, at least for now.

    Really? Calling everyone "dumbfucks" is being pro-village? Because, see, I consider that just a little abraisive. But maybe I just have thin skin.

    Tied is still in the lead or close enough to it for vote manipulation and people "forgeting" to switch their vote or "voting last minute without reading the thread".

    It's not "oh it's B:L" it's "oh, this guy is crazy." People really shouldn't listen to people that act like B:L is acting. The fact that it actually IS B:L is mostly irrelevant.

    If B:L said, "hey dudes, I have a way of confirming myself as a network mouthpiece, hold off on voting for me and if there's a guardian, guard me tonight" that'd be cool. I'd be down with that. But he didn't do that. He said, more or less, "HEY DUDES, I'M GONNA KILL SOMEONE TONIGHT. ALSO, VOTE FOR THE PERSON I TELL YOU TO VOTE FOR DESPITE ME NOT HAVING ANY INFORMATION AND THIS HAVING ABSOLUTELY NO BEARING ON ME PROVING I AM GOOD. AND ALSO DON'T QUESTION ME OR I WILL BLEAT AT YOU UNTIL YOU GET SICK OF ME."

    He's probably not mafia, but he certainly is a silly goose for trying to control fucking everything on day one. I don't care if he's the vigilante or not.

    Or maybe you should reference the game where you acted exactly like this, and I pointed you out to be very likely mafia, but instead of listening to me the village decided to trust you instead... a fatal choice that ended up with you and your fellow mafia attaining a perfect victory.

    Any model citizen can see that voting out Drez will provide the perfect outcome of saving the Mayor, and voting out someone who just loves manipulating the village.

    You mean the one where you told everyone Rakaam was DEFINITELY MAFIA and he wasn't, like you're doing here now with me? That game? The game you got killed in specifically because you were acting crazy, despite the fact that we could have used your help winning? I mean we won anyway thanks to thorgot and some, um, interesting game mechanics. In fact, victory was inevitable. But your actions were inexcusably stupid.

    As far as I'm concerned, the fact that you actually were a special makes the situation even worse. Frankly, you have a responsibility not to get yourself killed when you're in that situation. Good job, captain.
