    Hmm, I was under the impression that those were for failing to meet activity requirements, but looking at it again, Samurai seems to have posted enough to meet those last night.

    Were these withdrawals automatic for inactivity, made at the player's request, or forced by the action of another player?


    Can't hurt to ask.

    Also worth noting is that three people didn't vote last night: Arivia, Cantide, and Jdarksun. Also, Cleo voted for Burnage. Not sure if that counts.

    A while back I used to be a civil servant, working with... farmers.

    Farmers, by and large, make up some of the nicest and some of the worst people in customer history

    To adapt something my gran used to say, some you would tell your daughters to marry, others you would happily lower into quicklime millimetre by millimetre

    Some knew the system backwards and forwards and could happily soldier on and get things done even on the occasion that the computer system fucked up and sent around deathbots to rape their cattle or whatever

    Others were living in 1850 and didn’t deserve subsidies

    One chap demanded we processed his application form even though he hadn’t signed it, and best of all he still refused to sign it when we brought it out from filing and showed him the big empty box marked “please sign here”

    Another signed the forms, but crossed out parts of the terms & conditions that he didn’t agree with, and couldn’t understand why this was an issue

    Another filled out a land claim form sideways, turned 90 degrees, meaning all the existing columns and headers were complete gibberish

    Another who didn’t understand that processing took time and would constantly phone the department demanding an update when we’d told him, every time, that it would take at least a month for his new details to be confirmed by the inspectorate

    And don’t get me started on the fucking useless agents who forward-thinking farmers would hire to manage their paperwork, only to find that they complicated matters incredibly by merits of being really quite stupid

    But of course the organisation I worked for was riddled with incompetence anyway so it was a shitstorm whichever way you looked at it

    Is this the best post? It might be the best post.

    For your consideration:

    Kill Dr. Lucky, Day 2

    The very first thing that jumps out at me is that Kay voted for Rawkking Goodguy when the vote was quite close.

    Indeed that is correct. But I don't think that exonerates Rawkking Goodguy either, as it was still rather early in the day (4:10ish PDT), and there were quite a few votes for Zandracon at the very end of the day.

    It doesn't exonerate him but I think another Rawkking goodguy wagon is probably a waste of time.

    I agree. If anyone has additional reasons to suspect him, they can always try to shank him.

    I agree as well, I was just saying that we should not implicitly trust him based on the vote of a single bodyguard.

    Didn't Kay vote for SkyCaptian also? I wouldn't use his voting record to clear Rawkking at all.

    I kinda second this, but I think after the way the skycaptain vote turned out, mafia would be a little bit less inclined to vote for each other.

    Athenor and samurai6966 withdrew from the game by personal request, and not by any other player's influence.

    Yeah, I got totally absorbed by Persona 4. Again. That game is fucking dangerous.

    For starters, Houn, I'd vote for you for "being a dick two days" in a row... :mrgreen:

    ...but I think this !Fatal3RROR thing has legs.

    Man, if you think I've only been a dick for two days, you don't know me at all. :lol:

    I know you can be a fully contributing member of this society instead of playing it safe and voting for one-offs.

    I haven't seen any bandwagons worth jumping on. *shrug*

    By the time SkyCap'n was in full-on dick mode, my vote wasn't really needed. I never agreed with with Zand vote. I'm reserving judgment on Fatal for now; It's a bit early in the day to hop on the train, and from what I've seen, when people start rolling in and find an established bandwagon, it's too easy to simply join it, rather than analyze it.

    So, I'll continue to throw votes away and be a non-influence until I see something shake loose that I can get behind. Day's young, sir. ;-)

    A reminder: a special rule today says that you must move today, or you will be moved randomly instead. Remember, you have two different ways to move. First, there is always the free one-room movement in the Movement Phase. Then, if you want to move further, you can also play a Movement Card on yourself in the Action Phase.

    Hopefully no more questions about personal movement come up...

    Telling people to apply somewhere without the URL or a link or something comes across as a little cliquish. Like 'you can come join me if you're a friend already' or something. I thought there we no bros in Phalla?

    Reading through theories and misdirections and complications is giving me a lot of possible places to place my vote. I think Ardor may be onto something with his 'spread out' theory, pinning a higher chance of bodyguard-itis on those in less populated rooms, based on the protection mechanic mentioned in the OP.

    Ahava was right, you DO sound like a bodyguard.

    Until someone starts serenading them in a shouty singing voice while vibrating their lower jaw, I think we're safe.

    Hmm, I've got a moment, so I suppose I'll post and be active. :)

    So I see this train of thought against Fatal, and I wonder if I had done what I was originally thinking last night, would this be brought against me too? I was thinking about moving to 4, anticipating a couple of movement cards being played against Lucky and hoping to wind up in the same room as him, but I decided against it and figured I'd sit still.

    His vote doesn't seem especially suspicious to me, especially since I voted at the same time as him, albeit with an ever-so-slightly longer post. I'm learning to empathize with the busy.

    Hmm...but who do I suspect? That, sirs and madams, is an excellent question. And I've got no answer.

    I just wanted to talk. :P

    My thought of the moment: 3 bodyguards are already dead on day 3. This is a pretty decent sign for anyone looking to kill the dear doctor. If I was a bodyguard, I would want to stay very very quiet today. I say we take a look at people who were very active days 1 and 2 and are suddenly quiet today.

    My initial vote could be on Ardor, again, but that would make it look like I have some sort of grudge against him, which I totally don't. Instead, I do know funkywaltdogg vouched for him, but why would Ardor just pm funky instead of just posting in the thread?

    My guess: Because he's a fellow bodyguard, and he told him he wouldn't be here on their bodyguard proboards.

    That's some nice grundlogic you've got going there, RU. We want to look at people who've been quiet today, therefore I'm the obvious choice since I've been active. Also you fabricated the bit about the PM from Ardor; I was chatting with him on IM, something I do quite regularly, and I quite carefully refrained from defending him; I only repeated what he told me.

    EDIT: He's talking about this post.
