I’m vaguely tempted to vote for peeker and/or Ed just to stop the goddam BS posts. No peeker, vaguely coherent basically fluff is not graduate level mafia. Making yourself difficult to understand does not make you a better player, nor does it help Town.

Hey! My mom was a SAHM!
um…that’s not a good thing
Chronos:
First of all, you did read the part about how the forces of darkness have infiltrated us, right? Just because there’s someone who claims to be your brother, doesn’t mean he is. Second, this game is supposed to be accessible to folks not familiar with the canon. Third, and I realize that you only have my word on this, if Mahaloth intended that Boromir know who Faramir is, or vice-versa, he would have just told you (considering that that’s how it worked with me).
**Mahaloth **told you that Boromir would know who Faramir is?
Sorry. I’m getting a little punchy, obviously.
Says you!
(Every time I see that, I think “stay at home mom.” Which she was.)

Quoth peeker :
ok, in the game i am semi designing masons would not be told who each were. they would be given little snippets of information that if they were smart enough they would be able to connect. in that way town gets a huge bonus if they are smart enough and nada if they just pass on each other. and since there would be no ways of communication or even confirming each other then it ends up being a whole game within a game. and top it off, don’t even let the “masons” know that is what is going on. kind of let them figure it out.
there is something that is very similar to what ed is describing with what is going on with me. if i believe him, which i do, then he is faramir. i know that i am boromir and need to take care of my little brother. i’m following canon at this point.

i understand that and i apologize for the frivolity, but not much. there is nowhere in my pm that states emphatically that faramir would be good in this game. shoot there is nowhere in my pm that states that faramir is in this game at all. i was just trying to follow canon a wee bit. and of the two of us i would suspect me before him is all i was trying to convey. this is a game mechanism that i have been toying with and it seems to play based on behaviors thus far.
Chronos:
Well, I don’t know anything about Plankton ’s actual motivations, but at a guess: He was of course trying to pass as Town, and so was behaving as though he didn’t know what side I’m on. It looks to me like he’s just saying that Hoopy is being active and aggressive, and that he’s (pretending to) give him credit for that. But I don’t know; maybe he was just picking people at random to focus on, or maybe he was trying to set me up for a frame in case he went down, or maybe he was inclined to like anyone going after someone he knew to be Town, or maybe Hoopy is Scum, too, and he was looking for things to praise him for, or maybe he had some completely different reason for that that I can’t even guess at.
Fair enough. But Plankton ’s quote could also look like he was behaving as if he *did *know what side you were on; namely, his.

what in the world do you want nook ?
no bs question.
i mean do you want me to go player by player?
ok, i’ll try based on post count.
peek jeebus he talks a lot but i also have first hand experience that he is town.
ed man he posts a ton but he is my little brother. got take care of him.
gadaren much more active than normal. kind of pissing me off so he might be ok.
chronos man he is posting a lot this game. and the fact that he is somehwhat defending me is kind of waking me up to his presence.
Is it worth speculating on whether this game closely follows canon, and if so, which one? Does it follow the books more closely or the movie more closely? There’s some differences between the two. For example, bookFaramir is not really tempted by The Ring (he lets Frodo and Sam go), movieFaramir is tempted. Arwin’s character has slight changes between the book and the movie, too. (There’s probably more, I just can’t think of them right now.)
If these characters are roles in game, knowing which canon was followed might have implications for these players. Maybe? Maybe not.
hoopy not as active as i would have thougth. real inconsistent in logic and reasonsing. but it is good to have him back again.
maha is the primary mod. good guy as near as i can tell.
astral and please don’t take this wrong but i really worry about the big dogs. seems to be all over the board.
pleo heebus soft claim and then nada. that really makes me worry. but he always pulls this shit so wifom.
WTF. I just read two pages and I feel noticeably stupider. I think I hate you all.
Seriously, what the hell was that about?
