You CAN say it, you know.

Not with my rule, he can't. I'm beginning to think it was a bad idea, though.

...Eh?

A tree stump is a player that is dead, but can still participate in the discussion.

Without being able to talk about the game, it's a useless role.

Yep. It was a bad idea... I am allowed to change the rule at this point, right?

Probably not.

Damn.

I don't hold it against you. You were only doing what you thought best given the situation. See ya next game.

Scept, it's YOUR game. You're the host, therefore you have complete autonomy over your own game. As long as you're willing to treat all stumped players the same way, and as long as it's fine with the players, it's cool with me if you want to tweak the rules. I mean, it's early in the game, nothing would have changed up to this point if you had allowed stumped players to speak freely. So in my opinion you should go for it.

You know what? I'm gonna say stumps can speak about the information they have. I was really hoping to just add a little color to the round with them, but I should have considered functionality. Sorry for that...
But it's only my first round. I can get away with it, right...?

There's been worse mistakes in other people's first round so I think you're fine. Anyway, since I can spill my info, I'm gonna say this. My targets were Cloak and Hater, in that order. Meaning that Hater stumped me. I have no idea how I may have affected Cloak though.

Also, repostan the table since it's been over 10 posts.

spp - 2 - Mentlegen, Cloak
Shadi - 1 - Spp
Vat - 1 - Shadi
Hater - 1 - DA

Total - 5/11

Night shenanigans came to light recently, things don't add up and Shadi is probably lying. Disregard what I said yesterday.

spp - 1 - Cloak
Shadi - 2 - Spp, Mentlegen
Vat - 1 - Shadi
Hater - 1 - DA

Total - 5/11

I'm one of those roles that's useless unless they get really lucky.

Sticking with Spp.

Tired as fuck from uni and currently with no idea on who might be mafiascum. I'm gonna leave my vote on cloak and sleep for a bit. If I wake up before the round ends I'll issue my vote then.

Cloak till future reference - Massive
spp - 1 - Cloak
Shadi - 2 - Spp, Mentlegen
Vat - 1 - Shadi
Hater - 1 - DA

Total - 6/11

I don't like the whole claiming thing.
I didn't like it two years ago when I was on their forums, I don't like it now.

Provides too many opportunities for things to just get confusing.
I don't like the looks of Cloak or Nale still but

Cloak till future reference - Massive
spp - 1 - Cloak
Shadi - 2 - Spp, Mentlegen
Vat - 1 - Shadi
Hater - 2 - DA, Stalin

Total - 7/11

I hate to break a good tie, but I feel I must.

Cloak till future reference - Massive
spp - 1 - Cloak
Shadi - 3 - Spp, Mentlegen, Nale
Vat - 1 - Shadi
Hater - 2 - DA, Stalin

Total - 8/11

I don't think we should lynch Hater. Link pretty much confirmed that Hater is the Alpar role, and as the people who targeted him became tree stumps instead of joining him, he's probably not a Cultist, being more of a Paranoid Gun Owner.

We can't be sure, but I wouldn't lynch someone that the mafia can't touch.

You monster.

Someone put my vote on Shadi I'm kind of busy at the moment kthxbai

Cloak till future reference - Massive
spp - 1 - Cloak
Shadi - 4 - Spp, Mentlegen, Nale, Vat
Vat - 1 - Shadi
Hater - 2 - DA, Stalin

Total - 9/11

With Hater as a sorta confirmed townie, I think we shouldn't lynch him.

Since the stumper probably can't be night killed, and I'm guessing the Alpar role is a townie, the mafia MUST lynch him to kill him, otherwise he's a confirmed townie, so only mafia would vote for him in my mind. He's only dangerous to the town if we fuck with him.

So lets just... not fuck with him. Bam, confirmed townie, untouchable.

Polls closed. Shadi goes. Writing story.

Four more gone today (although there appeared to be another Alpar). The Halolzians' hope was fading quickly, but they still trekked onward. The day passed by with little drama. The player named Shadi was selected to go next.

He didn't go quietly. "GOD DAMMIT!" he screamed. "I hate you all! I'll get you, Shawn! I'll get all of--"

WHAM!

"USER NALE HAS BEEN VOTEBANNED."


Shawn crept to his target's page. He knew the occupant was dangerous. Slowly, he entered and was immediately spotted. The target grabbed his elbow. Right away, Shawn could feel the assimilation begin. His will drained fast, but he managed to lift the banhammer above his head and let it crash down.

"USER ALPAR HAS BEEN KILLBANNED."

The overlord left the page, clutching at his chest. For a second, he thought he had begun to desire dragon girls. He shuddered at the thought. How horrible...



Shadi's desire for revenge couldn't save him.

Spoiler:

HATER almost assimilated his killer, but failed.

Spoiler:

Also, Link is now dead. For realz.

Welp, so much for him being kill proof.
AND SHADI. YOU LYING BASTARD.

I'm useless as shit anyway, so I'm just going to tell you all I'm the watcher.
Watched Spp, DA, and Vat. All nothing.

DA and Stalin both wanted to lynch a practically confirmed townie, so I guess they're my realistic suspicions? Spp still kinda bugging me.

Stalin - 1 - Cloak
1/9

I wasn't around when Link confirmed the fact that he's Alpar. Sorry 'bout that.
I'm still wondering what kind of Night Shennanigans Comeuppance did Mentle find out that misled him on Shadi's position as third party. He WAS right about Shadi lying with the whole "winning WITH another faction, not just himself" thing, though. Ment seems the least suspicious so far.

Still...

Since when does THIS happen with Nale?
The ties were Shadi and Hater, 2 confirmed third party roles, and he went with the 99.99% confirmed one.
But then again, ALL of his votes have been against Shadi... hm...

Stalin seems a bit more calmer than usual, so I'll go for him.

Stalin - 2 - Cloak, DA
2/9

I think Nale is a mafia.

Safe votes every time, no tie forcing.
It's not like him.

Stalin -2 -Da, Nale
Nale - 1- Stalin
