Fnord!
And here I was, going off, and getting high on, expounding on usage #1 there.
Nope, I actually said something there, ThingFish.
I suspect your Fnord is a Fnord itself.*
*which I just now found on Wiki, via Microdotting, yet again.
Now, if you wanted to be sneaky with a Fnord, wouldn’t you have done something like this?
Anyway, this is all fine and dandy, but we do have a game to play, right?
I don’t know what Peeker is after, but I suspect that if a bandwagon starts on him, it would gain the mass it needs.
Putting that aside, Do you think it would be worthwhile to speculate at what night powers scum have in this game? Do we know for certain that it is a relative vanilla afair?
For the record, Meeko, I guessed pretty much immediately what that cipher was. And you’re right; it’s far, far older than the SDMB. I don’t see how it helps anyone here, though, nor what it has to do with microdots (nor, for that matter, why peeker was talking about microdots in the first place).
Yes, Meeko, we do have a game to play (above blankness can be read by mousing over it). As yet we have no evidence that scum have any powers other than infecting someone with the seed of sin (Sinners) and nightkilling (Blackhearts). Until something happens that we can’t more plausibly explain without postulating extra scum powers, I doubt it would be highly productive to speculate about what such powers might be.
- We did have the post from Paul the First that at the very least, Pede knows of power roles at night that scum could use. Paul did, after all look at Ed.
2.Then again, when we have people spouting off Chinese, it could be scum, or it could be Pede.
Probably.
If you have forgotten, peeker voted for me because BEFORE THE GAME BEGAN, I told Meeko(a newcomer) that he could trust Ped’s descriptions of the rules.
No roles had even been assigned, and he was judging me on that, which makes zero sense.
Did someone define OMGUS yet?
That’s actually an excellent point! You are learning stuff!
But as I recall, ped said somewhere up there that the two scum groups have to designate a specific person every night to sinfect or kill. So paul’s power could have been designed to catch just those two people, without having to postulate extra scum powers.
Since Angel (and both pauls) is now confirmed Town, I think we can assume that she/he was probably telling the truth that the Chinese was imposed by ped as a side effect of paul I cleansing **Angel **of Sin.
I was wondering about that too: If Scum never does anything, then an observation power (as paul claimed to have) is of no use to Town. Somewhere along the way there, I asked pede if there were some designated member of each Scum faction that does the dirty deed, and he said “yes”, so at the very least, paul might have seen the Blackheart killer or the Sinner infector on the way to the scene of the crime.
paul never did tell us what he would learn from a successful use of that power, though, whether he would just find out that the observed person had taken an action, or if he would learn what the action was, and/or if it had a target. Depending on that, it could still wind up being an anti-Town power: He might learn, for instance, that “Qadgop targeted sachertorte with an action”, and not realize that Qadgop was the Doctor.

Twice I think.
Okay, maybe just once.
snipped and bolding mine
uh, did you really just say that?
look, i am playing this game as a flavor.
if you guys/gals don’t see that mygosh is scum and meekma then what happens is pre determined.
**pede is this really going to be allowed? otay the gloves come off **
ray, tiy aowwk reykkt,.
giq viyr rgar>
and when the rest of you catch up can we at least find some time to catch and kill scum?
sheesh, meek get with the communal program. i mean i am trying but you are just dicking around at this point.
come join us on idle mafia and giraffe. you’ll fit in just fine. plus, they get tough.
This is the issue, there is no other issue currently:
Is peeker with us, or against us?
As he says he is playing this game as a favor, why, exactly is he saying that?
What is the reason that we do not vote Peeker?
At the same time, is there an outstanding reason that we can not vote Peeker?
I don’t want to trust something that is so knee-jerk, as “OMGUS Peeker”
Anyone else in the same boat here?
Peeker : Are you not enjoying this?
I would think on some level you are. Based on that, cut out the part you don’t like doing, and you wouldn’t be on the fence here.
prove it
NETA :
Your Half. Not my “dicking around” – because it isn’t
I don’t think I could have said it better myself.
Especially given the fact that you didn’t say anything.
