    Also, Darn you Gnasty! I can't tell you why, so just trust me that you deserve it.

    Tell me why! It's because I'm just too awesome and you're completely devastated that you were killed off early, right?

    Gnasty I just want to say this Phalla looks really well set up and I wish I had seen the signups in time. It's a shame there's been so much inactivity.

    If I tell you will I be resurrected?

    It is partially because I was killed off early(/shakes fist at tehspectre), but also because you used a mechanic that I really wanted to use in my game. I'll probably go ahead and use it anyway though, since there should be 2 months between the games.

    Certainly, but it's not necessary to contribute additional information, especially due to the earlier suspicions that a living player might be reading this thread.

    But, those suspicions proved to be completely unfounded...

    Well, I suppose you're right, but what I meant was that the reason a living player was suspected of reading this thread turned out not to be a reason at all.

    Oh ho! Well well well. Wellity Wellity Wellity.

    Good job, Cult-buddy!

    How many gnomes do you guys think are left? There can't honestly be that many, can there?

    This could come down to the wire...

    EDIT: Also. Precisionk? Cherub?? The mind boggles at the improbability.

    I'm disappointed that the Cherub never even got to use his power. :( Maybe if he had actually been here the first two days he could have spiced things up.

    Every time I post a narration I worry that I accidentally screwed up someone's kill order and I'm killing the wrong person and revealing their role and everything. It's stressful.

    Kind of dumb of me. Of course the little freaks are going to take umbrage at that. :P

    I like this game though. Peppy. Quick.

    You got targetted because of my amazing first night skillz. I couldn't pick another special out to save my life though.

    I hope so too. It does seem a bit suspicious, timing-wise. Of course, if no suspects had come to light, (and I had lived) I was planning to bandwagon Devoutly Apathetic to death for his gnome avatar. Of course, that would have fallen about equidistant between suspicion, playfulness, and wanting to kill the good players off ASAP.

    Yea, the avatar thing is kinda silly. BTW my avatar was up like this before Role PMs were even handed out, I just wanted to parade David the Gnome around the forums for awhile.

    Oh, and that last bit is entirely the real reason you died. I totally should have gone for Ardor as well. I never kill Ardor soon enough.

    I made you when you said you were planning on retracting your vote for me. Having it confirmed, I'm sorry I didn't go the whole ten rounds, but I just didn't have the energy. Well done, sir.

    Up until the whole death thing, I guess :P

    Honestly, I would have. That goes even for if I was a normal villager. If you were going to do what you did you should have fully committed and just outed yourself. Half in and half out just isn't very convincing.

    Yeah, well, that was the plan originally. Like I said, I just didn't have the energy. I was getting all wrapped up in it, you know, emotionally, and I realized it really wasn't worth it.

    But since we're chatting anyway... I went over that post a couple times and it basically convinced me you were a gnome. Whether it was what you said, how you said it, or just something I read into it 'cuz you were trying to kill me... I can't rightly say. Either way, I figured if no one but me saw it you probably deserved to live anyway. Fair is fair.

    I am sure that everyone hopes that their first phalla will result in them not dying in the face. However, I died in the face. Sad sad day.

    We don't get to say anything that might indict the living we worked with, right?

    Why the fuck did I die?

    I was soooo close to voting for you. But I didn't think it'd do anything. And TehSpectre ate your face anyway. I actually typed out !vote life3, then I deleted it... I was thinking 'oh man let's not rock the boat or anything, this is your first time phallaing'. You fucker.

    Man. Is that irony? TehSpectre? Ancient spirit? Killing powers?

    Eh, I can't really say you didn't see anything in that post as you obviously did. I tried to be as reasonable as I could be and I don't post any different between when I'm evil and when I'm not. Your plan really did look pretty bad to me.

    The only advice I'd give you is that if you get a gut feeling like that stick by them. I'm very intuitive and while it didn't help me much this game I usually pick out one or two opposing specials by the end of the game. If you can find any evidence backing you up and you stick to your guns you can practically bandwagon anybody.

    If you're wrong though...well don't expect to be posting in the main thread for long...

    Now when TormentedSoul posted right after me saying "Me Too!" I was *so* pissed. When he died soon afterwards? Uh-oh.....

    Seriously Adrien, this statement is so true. I nearly got Plutonium voted out because of one dinky little line that he wrote. And I wasn't even trying to bandwagon him. People just latched on for whatever reason. It is not very difficult at all to sway the mob if that's what you really want to do.

    He might. Alot of people have a really skewed view on statistics and the way averages work. Some people swear that because of averages there shouldn't be large gaps like that in randomly assigned things, which really makes no sense. Just like someone will say "This coin keeps landing heads, it will have to land tails soon!"

    Yea, maybe. It just gets me cause there are equally large gaps of just humans in more suspicious places. (Check out the end of the list. No specials anywhere in the revealed roles.)

    Yea, well the first time is more involving than the next. This is also slightly odd with the multiple factions. They really distort the basic gameplay. Though the end of the day you've just got to decide if you enjoyed yourself or not.

    Still annoyed at being killed on night one, before I even got a chance to check the thread (was without internets that day). On the other hand, I wouldn't have had time to play as actively as I normally do so... meh. Damn gnomes.
