We have hands? So _that’s_ what those things are that keep going up my nose… I can’t see how a townsperson could inadvertantly divulge much of anything. Or are you referring to the non-average special roles? Even then, the only ones who know the special roles at this stage of the game are Revenant Threshold and the rolees themselves. Anyone claiming to be anything is subject to nothing but scepticism at this point. ---

[QUOTE=jsgoddess] Raisins are the squishy, withered… um… Bad Things of Satan. [/QUOTE] Damn straight, says I. Matzoh sucks. Chocolate covered matzoh is pretty good. Raisins suck. Yogurt covered raisins still suck. So, when you get lynched, can I have the chicken salad? Wouldn’t want it to go to waste. 🙂 ---

[QUOTE=ComeToTheDarkSideWeHaveCookies] Maybe what we need is a social mixer? We could tap into the town treasury, hire a dj, buy some boxed wine, and roll out the salami, cheese & tomato bites. [/QUOTE] And kibble. Don’t forget the kibble. It would act like the cheese in a mouse trap. Or something.. ---

[QUOTE=hocow] And kibble. Don’t forget the kibble. It would act like the cheese in a mouse trap. Or something.. [/QUOTE] Eh. We’re medieval peasants. I really don’t think going for kibble is all that suspicious when the alternatives are watery turnip soup, moldy bread, and, if we’re really lucky, the piece of rancid meat with the fewest maggots on it. Actually, that gives me an idea. My finest she-goat to whoever exposes the alpha werewolf! Some of my wife’s most adequate tough black bread for any of the common werewolves! In addition, where the hell are our feudal lords in all of this? We need some knights and proper inquisitors and such. I’m telling you, man, after we take care of these werewolves, we should totally revolt. ---

[QUOTE=JSexton] I think you’re on the right track, except I’m going with Menocchio. At mafiascum, a site devoted to this game, a longtime player did a study of townie bandwagons, and found that the third person on was highly likely to be a bad guy. Something about sensing the trend and getting on it. Anyway, it’s as good a tell as anything else right now, so vote for Meocchio! [/QUOTE] Sorry for lurking,just trying to get a feel for the game. I ain’t buying this **Jsexton** …you get my vote Jsexton and for whoever poked me…QUIT IT! ---
