I was just pointing out Ody was pulling clues out of thin air to accuse someone.
Just sounds kinda suspicious…
Believe it or not, it isn't. He thought they were honest clues.

:/ I dunno, it still seems likely that you're the serial killer.
Although losing the vigilante would be a huge loss.

To clarify my position about Hakoshen

The clues are very obvious and quite pointed. GM said that he bases clues on what is said and behavior. Hakoshen is the only person to use the word Mafioso. This cannot be overlooked. A red herring is a clue that points away from the suspect. this one is a direct hit.

Also there are NO OTHER CLUES in that particular hit. So the weight of the clue has to be considered. That means that it must be very specific - not a general fuzzy “well it looks like it might be LoS”. We have a direct quote from Hakoshen.

You're right. There are no other clues. In fact, there are no other clues that specific anywhere. For that reason, it's my personal belief is the brains set me up on this matter, since no one else has something so blatant (which is what Humor said he wanted to avoid by not using profiles and the like) in the entire narrative.

I'm sure others noticed it, but the only one to think it was evidence was someone out of Ochi's camp. It's so easy to associate the ripper with the guy with two lightsabers in his banner regardless of whether it's officially used by Humor or not. So why wouldn't the mafia make such a clear ploy to pin it on me, especially considering I was the most vehement one about killing them?

On an unrelated note, consider this.

When Ozone and Hark died, our most prominent detectives have yet to mention that one of them was a mason. Go ahead and look. There's only three of them left.
God needed the Devil, the Beatles needed the Rolling Stones, Hakoshen needs me.
I'm the enemy he requires to define him.
Soon or later, he'll bring me back to life again for another epic encounter of shouting about power levels and grimacing.

I've been re-reading this thread and I'm thinking that Ochi is acting really suspiciously. I'm not making an accusation yet

You're justified. If you kill me, you'll know that it's incorrect, but I can't blame you for suspecting. I would feel the same.

odysseus55
MADAM MAYOR please - a triple lynching this cycle!
Hang Hakoshen.
Hang Gullas
Hang SkoolMunkee

I'm sorry, but that seems…incredibly fast. I don't think it's a good idea yet…

If the majority wants it, I'll call for a multiple lynching next time. For this moment, since there are only six votes and mine would tip the balance irretrievably, I'm not going to vote this cycle, if that's ok.

Just received word from the mayor. There will only be one lynching today. Voting closes in about a half-hour (4:00pm PST).

Billy vs. Tree – The epic struggle of boy versus tree.
Sonic Colores – It looks like it's going to be a good game because I love how the way it makes me grow.

If you dont change your vote from LoS to Haoshen

3 townies will die tonight.

If I am wrong about hakshen I will accept your wrath.
But I am not wrong.
This is a different game than last one. Different way to generate clues.

wikipedia
A typographical error (shortened as typo) is a mistake made during, originally, the manual type-setting (typography) of printed material, or more recently, the typing process. The term includes errors due to mechanical failure or slips of the hand or finger, but excludes errors of ignorance. Before the arrival of printing, the “copyist's mistake” was the equivalent for manuscripts. Most typos involve simple duplication, omission, transposition, or substitution of a small number of characters.

Though the term “typo” excludes errors of ignorance, it is common to find it used as a euphemism to describe instances of poor spelling, punctuation, or grammar, such as accidentally typing a homophone.

A typographical error is distinct from an orthographical error; the latter is characterised by incorrect usage of language.

thats the wikipedia meaning

-,-

This is the same thing he did last game, except last game he really was the vigilante, and this game he's either the vigilante or the serial killer.

Either way he gets stupid and desperate when he's in trouble, and whether he really is a vig or not, claiming to be will get him killed by mafia if he manages not to get lynched. LoS should have learned from the last game that a stupid vigilante that everyone knows, and is willing to start killing the first night based on rumors, isn't any more useful than a dead vigilante.

LoS has also pretty much admitted that if he's spared from lynching today, he's going to just try to hit anyone and ‘hope’ he hits a thug. If you're so confident about who you think is a bad guy LoS- tell us who you intend to hit, in case you die. :] If you're really the vigilante and you die, then your suspicions may be useful. Heck, they'll be useful even if you don't die. The mafia can't protect themselves from a hit so it isn't like they'd be able to use that knowledge to defend themselves. And if you believe someone's suspicious it would work for the town to know who that is.

I still think the narrative points more at him being the serial killer than the vigilante, but I'm not exactly sure how much we're supposed to interpret the narrative in that way.

That would be saying that the masons are specifically four people with a special name and that they're no different from townies, since anyone can talk to anyone. Besides, he would have had to change it for it to go from 4 to 3.

I think I'm gonna stick with LoS being the biggest suspect, I hope he isnt a vigilante though, I think I agree with skool that the first murder was committed by a serial killer…. this is pretty tough! =_=

Mason is a separate role. You can't be both a jailkeeper and a mason. All 3 masons are still out there.


Unless the person lynched today is the Ripper, that means we'll get another clue tomorrow about their identity (possibly two, or possibly none, depending on who/if they try to kill). So the argument against Hakoshen would be able to be investigated. I do tend to think that any clues would be based on more than a single shared word, but it's a starting place.

That's exactly what I did when I was the mafia pardoner. T_T Quit copying my moves, mafia mayor!


Edit: I'm hoping I've interpreted it right that LoS is the serial killer too… it wouldn't be great to lose a vigilante (despite how annoyed I sound about his announcing himself in both games), but worse, it would mean I was WRONG D: (And then no one will believe what I think anymore, ‘til I’m dead anyway.)

Oh. Well, my apologies go out to Waff for arguing out of ignorance. Somehow or another I thought there were originally four.

Okay, voting's over.

leaderofstars will be lynched at 5:00pm PST, that is unless the mayor pardons him in the next 30 minutes.

There's not much else I can do. You said it yourself; even if he is vigilante, he can't help anymore. He'll be killed by the mafia even if I pardon him, unless he IS a mafia. All he's done is make himself a target for both sides.

I can't help him now, and you know it.


Everyone remember: I'll call a multi-lynch if it's requested on the next day cycle.
