WW40 - Game Thread

[MJW (ya that one)]

I'll just dump my votes on Marcus Aurelius Marcus Aurelius until he explains how he came to realms beyond because all he has is a mysterious post on 'mount&blade'.

Because Gods aren't heroes if we claim all our names we can force the Gods to guess a hero name and hope they hit one who is unclaimed. I'm not going to brother pushing this unless Zak or Lewwyn gets on-board because only they have the influence to make it happen.

If the torture is town-aligned he can reveal the alignment, without revealing himself, by attacking or defending the player who got tortured. When the torturer dies if he's town aligned we can react to his posts appropriately.

I wouldn't object to being tortured.

I just had a sudden thought : the OP says the torturer gets to know the alignement. Does that mean the torturer is basically a day cop whose target is decided by majority vote ?

Well, yes. Which aspect of this did you only realize now?

Lewwyn, why do you think I have hammer envy?

[Lewwyn]

@novice

We've probably been given a hammer because scum have a nail gun.

Sounded a bit bitter to me, as in you have a nail gun.

To quote Novice earlier...

I mean, have you seen some of the games he thinks we will find "fun?" I'm thinking fun DF style here.

hmmmm... I expected more content. Why did no-one comment on my first post when it has the potential to break the game if Serdoa failed to make safe-claims like uberfish did that ffh game? (That didn't work out because JKaen went nuclear because "Bamber" wasn't important enough to be invited).

Are we allowed to say our name from the role-pm, Serdoa?

[BRickAstley]

Well the whole role pm minus any powers is spelled out in the first post, only needing the specific name. With my name and the way the theming looks, i don't think it would be very hard for scum to make a fake claim. Which is all moot if Serdoa has given them safe claims, as you've said.

If he hasn't and you feel like that might catch them off guard, be my guess, I just don't see it really accomplishing much.

Serdoa's hero-names are very obvious. So if we all claim we can ether force scum to claim non-obvious names, which did indeed got someone killed in that ffh game, or claim an obvious name and force 50-50 coinflips which is very favoriteable to us.

Unless there's a agreement to mass-claim there's no reason to do any of it because the above won't happen. The wolf's won't be forced to claim.

I just noted your comment for later contemplation MJW. I figure that scum are likely to get names as well as the heroes, so it wouldn't take much to piece together that they should pick a hero name. Either we are dealing with a specific pantheon, or multiple. Within a specific pantheon there is some slight chance of getting caught faking, but if we are using multiple pantheons, like say Gaimen's American Gods, then almost any claim would be safe.

Let's check that then.

I'm from the Greek pantheon.
