    It doesn't count as a vote unless you get the second "U" in there.

    You are actually a Dwarven Gnomesniffer!

    You and two fellow Gnomesniffers have infiltrated the tourist group based on rumors of gnomish subversion. Unfortunately, you were not fast enough to prevent the initial attack and at the moment, with suspicions high, you must proceed with caution. Double-unfortunately, you're not exactly sure which humans your fellow Gnomesniffers are disguised as. Once per night you may select a target and detect whether or not they are a Gnome. You will receive no other data other than whether or not they are a Gnome. Your goal is to eliminate the Gnomish threat.


    All Specials PM me now! :winky:

    Yeah this is good enough reason to kill squashua:

    !kill Squashua

    I wonder how many non-humans there are, because the cultists win conditions sound a little easy to win. (since they might only have to kill 5 or so people).

    But there are only two of them. Unless they have a seer or something, that sounds like a pretty bad deal for them.

    Just a stab, but being first day and all it's better than any other guess I can make.

    Inquisitor is from LA, visiblehowl is too, afaik. Didn't find anything to contradict such living arrangements as roommates with a brief search, so it's a not bad first day lead compared to RNGing it.

    Squashua's antics is a good bandwagon too though, whatever.

    But they don't have to kill there targets themselves, anybody can kill them. There targets just have to die at the hands of anybody. Simply by random chance I think they have a pretty good chance to win if they can stay alive (which isn't that hard look at the cultist in rygar's game).

    I didn't make that interpretation.

    That's a little metagamey, I think...Inquisitor bowed out so that the information wouldn't influence the game, and now you're trying to make it influence the game. :(

    For the DSDMT to be resurrected, at least one member of every race must be killed. As long as at least one cult member is alive when this goal is achieved, the cult will win the game.
    It sounds to me like anyone can do the killing.

    If the cultists have to make the kills directly, then it is kind of simple to prevent them from winning by the village and the other factions and the gnomes killing all the specials of a particular race before the cultists have the chance to.

    Attention Hu-Mon villagers: Keep a good eye on anyone jumping on the "Squashua" bandwagon this late in the game who isn't doing it out of Phallanoia vengeance, and you'll have a good "gnome suspect list" after tonight's narration reveal.

    Especially investigate those who try to put actual credence behind my "Dwarven Gnomesniffer" claims.

    Yeah, I think Gnasty needs to clarify that bit as it's open to either imo.

    And I wondered about the roommate thing but for the same reasons that he dropped out I have a hard time ignoring it. It's hard to take things back after the fact in a game where mystery is the mechanic, would have been best to not detail the situation around it but again, too late now.

    Please note that I'm making the the connection and vote based purely on public info on the PA forums and I don't have any insider info on Inquisitor and his roommate.

    Uh no the dwarven sniffer bullshit (especially after phallanoia) is justification enough for anybody to kill you.

    I was going to vote for somebody else, because you get bandwagoned every game, but that bullshit was enough to convince me that you need to die.

    Yeah, well, he shouldn't have volunteered any information at all, to be honest. Now I'm going through and looking for people who signed up specifically for this game, on the off-chance that the roommate is someone who was looking over his shoulder at previous games...

    Hi, Lignisse! I make !vote for you.

    And that's probably not very fair. However...I'd be surprised if only 2 of 50 people in this game lived in LA. Big town.

    We also have to assume, considering the nature of the information given and his humanity, that the roommate is bad for our collective health. At this point I'm guessing cultist.

    He shouldn't have worded it the way he did. Just a simple, "Uh, I saw someone else's PM and need to drop out" likely would have sufficed. The how and why of the circumstances notwithstanding.

    Heck, a private PM to Gnasty could have handled it without any of us even knowing.

    We could just not go looking for people's locations. That would make it pretty easy to ignore the information.

    It's just bad form working like this, and although Inquisitor might have been able to handle it better, he didn't, so now we're here.

    That said, I'm probably not going to convince anyone that we shouldn't web detective Inquisitor to find out who he lives with, so bah to you all.

    Stating that you're metagaming (acting on pre-game attitude) and then refusing to metagame (not acting on location investigation) in the next sentence/paragraph? Man, that is SO hypocritical. :winky:

    He could have ignored that he saw the PM too then. My point being that it's hard to ignore info and "play right" after the fact. I doubt I was the only one tempted by this.

    You weren't. I was tempted by it too. Then I thought about it, realized that it wasn't really the way the game was meant to be played, and decided against searching around for info on it. Obviously my beliefs aren't yours, nor should they necessarily be, but I still think that it's the wrong way to play this game.
