  1. Well, if I'm a goodie, there's only one I can be after that little play. Consider that my claim. I suspect we've lost. My gamble was a bet that you were a goodie, Molly, but that didn't work out. We'll probably get at least one nongoodie in this lynch, but it remains to be seen.

     

    If MiKi was the baddie, then she would have been forced to manip a vote onto Maurice. And after the vote manip is factored in, Mo's definitely dead. Not the way I wanted this to turn out.

    On the other hand, if she's the indy and mo's the baddie, we win and this whole little scuffle meant nothing in the end.

    If bonanova's the baddie, he changed his vote at the last second to save himself, which means MiKi and Mo are either indy-goodie or goodie-indy, which means either way we got the indy, which is a good trade.

    But if bonanova's the indy, it's game over -- three goodies dead and a baddie is almost a guarantee that the indy wins with the RID kill.

    Well, I'll hit the sack for tonight. If the game's over, well played all.

  2. 1. maurice - voting for MiKi
    2. Flamebirde- voting for maurice

    3. Molly Mae - voting for MiKi
    5. MiKi - voting for maurice
    7. bonanova  - voting for MiKi

     

    Hirkala - NK1 by baddies
    Panther - NK2 by baddies

    Damn, was that in time?

    It doesn't look like it.

     

    Well, this makes the next lynch very clear cut, if we have one. It looks like the final roster is what Bonanova posted. For better or worse.

  3. Roster:

     

    1. maurice - voting for MiKi
    2. Flamebirde - voting for
    Bonanova
    3. Molly Mae - voting for MiKi
    5. MiKi - voting for maurice
    7. bonanova  - voting for maurice

     

    Hirkala - NK1 by baddies
    Panther - NK2 by baddies

     

    Might not be a conversation tonight, if this plays out well.

    I've weighed the options quite a bit and played the probabilities. One of you is going to be a martyr, and if MiKi's a baddie or Molly isn't a goodie than the jig's up for us. But if we mislynched today, it would already be futile...

    Here's hoping.

  4. Well, let me put it this way; MiKi's probably not a goodie, just because she's not said anything. Place my vote on MiKi.

    the Bonanova-Mo thing is interesting, but not relevant, since we can just lynch MiKi today.

     

    But really, the Indy should be our target for sure. If we lynch Mick, then DJ has a chance of winning outright, and odds are that one of the two goodies already killed were one of his targets, meaning with his RID kill things get bad. Quick.

  5. No, it doesn't look like we can make that assumption. Since there isn't any information contained in the flavor text that isn't explicitly stated in the TL;DR version, the Baker could still be alive.

     

    Basically, ignore the flavor text. if you want the information we gained from a phase, just look at the TL;DR.

  6. @Molly Mae did you perhaps drop a subtle hint in an earlier post?

    @bonanova What makes you think Molly and I are cleared?

    Roster:

    1. maurice - voting for Bonanova
    2. Flamebirde - voting for MiKi
    3. Molly Mae - voting for Flamebirde
    4. Panther - voting for Bonanova
    5. MiKi - voting for Bonanova
    7. bonanova - voting for MiKi

    6. Hirkala - Killed N1 by the Baddies

    For the moment, Bonanova's at least said something fairly constructive. I'm inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt today and place pressure on someone else who hasn't said much at all.

  7. Yeah, I guess so. I just saw trap>block in the OP so I assumed a bit. In terms of clearing a goodie, though, I'm not sure about that one. Blocking the spy is the worst case scenario. Blocking the vanilla does nothing, even after he gets his kill. Blocking the vote manip could potentially lose the game. And blocking the save is... almost always bad.

     

    Bottom line, I'm not sure that the shopkeeper should ever act. The chances are that it would hinder the goodies more than it would help, especially not after last night, where I assume the block already knows who the Indy is.

    I suppose those two possibilities still apply, but I'm thinking inactivity is unlikely, given that everyone's commented (except Hirk, but he got offed N1, so...). Purposeful misdirection? A possibility. If the block knows for a fact who the Indy is, it would be in our favor for the shopkeeper to out now.

  8. Good for you, I'm completely lost in this nonsense. I've got a guess as to where this leads, but really I'm just praying now.

    For now, I'll follow the bandwagon on Bonanova.

    Roster:
    1. maurice - voting for Bonanova
    2. Flamebirde - voting for Bonanova
    3. Molly Mae - voting for Flamebirde
    4. Panther - voting for Bonanova
    5. MiKi - voting for Bonanova
    7. bonanova

    6. Hirkala - Killed N1 by the Baddies

     

  9. Spoiler

    I think the first digit is the absolute value of the left two numbers subtracted from each other. 3-4=-1 and the absolute value is 1; 4-1=3; 2-3=-1 and the absolute value is 1. That does give us the 3 in 30. But then I have no clue...

    According to this, it only says, "the multiplication or product of the number of white and black goat" If it is just one white goat and one black goat, then the answer is one. However, it could just be a spelling error, and the answer is something else.

     

    Spoiler

    If we're talking about tricky grammar, then technically you can't have the "multiplication or product of the number of white and black goat" because then there would only be one number; the number of white and black goats would be 8 (3+5).

    Well... huh. Decided to check back on these forums in a fit of nostalgia, and lo, this old thing is still in signups! Wasn't expecting any activity to be honest, but it's actually rather nice to see some familiar faces having posted (semi) recently! To any of my old friends that still hang around here: I hope you are all well!

    I'm still up for this. Why not? Considering the last post before MikeD was 2014, I'm not too hopeful, but what the hell.

    Given the huge time-gap, I took the liberty of resetting the confirmations, and checking up on everyone's activity.

    Guess I'm back to checking up on BD every so often.

    Backup: maurice_2.0 - Confirmed, February 2017

    Pinging everyone that has been around BD recently. As for the people who haven't been around in years, maybe we could try another round of emails? Or, if this draws some attention, maybe some new folks could fill in the red spaces.

    @Molly Mae@flamebirde@bonanova@araver@Hirkala@BMAD@marksmanjay@dee_tot

    I think it's fair to say that the Coup of Rhotus is effectively dead for now; we're having enough trouble getting signups for a ten player game as is. Maybe once we build the player base a bit we can try to revive it, but for now I think it's rather unlikely.

    On the other hand, Forgotten Districts is in signups, and that's relatively close to getting off the ground!
