If I get lynched today, I won't be able to help any m

Now that Tomorrow is alive, maybe he can finally finish this sentence!!

Extra long deadline works well - My daughter has a gymnastics meet at Noon (because apparently they don't care today is the Super Bowl!) and then we will watch football!

I will try to check in during the meet!
 
As you can see by my avatar, I am the bartender although I exhausted my supply of alcohol over the last two nights.

The first night, I gave an Anheuser-Busch O'dule's to Twietee (being German he obviously preferred an American beer) who was unable to tell us who he scanned.
The second night, I gave a Harpoon Boston Irish Stout to a villager who survived the night. I'll wait on the villager to announce today who they scanned.

Note - 1) I'm now just a regular villager and it clears me of initially being a WW although I can still be infected.
2) An advantage of the bartender is that the person can reveal who they scanned without revealing their role.
3) A disadvantage of the bartender is that the person scanning might be a WW. A WW could still be tripped up by lying about the scan.

I'm waiting on the scan results before voting.

Pray remind me again of that wonderful line from (the movie) Desperado? You know, the one that went something as follows: 'The bartender never dies'……..followed by a sublime soundtrack.

good use of the drinks, @Plutonius
too bad for twietee (although we have to consider suicide now that we know what you forced him to drink, that was cruel)
it puts you a bit more at risk for the night, but hopefully the person who used your scan can as a minimum clear another person.
i agree that the receiver should come forward, as the divulgation of the scan results comes basically with no risks for them

I'm just bummed I didn't see his response :D

Possibly, but I would rather be taken out then have the WWs kill someone who might be our seer or hunter. Besides, I can't be cleared 100% with the infection in play.

I had started a sour-grapes quip in frustration that I meant to try to cancel before writing the post I actually did write. I was set to reveal my role, and the very squirrelly way I ended up able to clear you. I'm not sure it's a smart idea for me to reveal the whole story but it has to do with the anomaly Comeagain? mentioned about not initially assigning a seer. In a nutshell, it's not me, but on the first night I was mistakenly sent your role when I had intended to protect you (I'm the guard).

I won't expose your role here unless you want me to, but I can confirm you're not a WW.

This gets more interesting by the minute. Fascinating.

So, we have @Tomorrow - sort of cleared, @Plutonius, sort of cleared, @Moyank24 sort of cleared, and @mscriv, @twietee, dead and @WoodNUFC, and @ravenvii lynched.

A bit of a thinning of the ranks of those whom we might reasonably suspect. Again, fascinating.

And thank you @Tomorrow; I can tell you that @Moyank24 was not alone in desiring to know what would have transpired had you been able to finish your post.
 
I got Plutonius' drink. It was tasty. I scanned @Moyank24 and can confirm she's not a WW. Unfortunately, Tomorrow also scanned her. I was hoping other scanners would go for DP or Pluto or someone else, but them's the breaks.

if i get it right, tomorrow didn't scan her, he just came to know her role by chance.
so the seer should still have two scan results in his/her files.
the only scan unfortunately wasted was that given to twietee.
[doublepost=1454909154][/doublepost]based on what has transpired, unlikely to be WW for now:
plutonius, tomorrow, moyank, dsching

suspects (2/8):
Sythas, ricksnagwell, Scepticalscribe, Philbeeney, curmudgeonete, mrkramer, Queen of Spades, Don't Panic

if the undertaker scanned ravenvii, and he was not NW, it would be maybe a good idea to let us know.

Wait, so Tomorrow was sent Moyank's role without a scan? Why?

That list looks spot on.

I'm sure it will be explained at the end of the game. It sounded like a comeagain? error might have occurred while fixing up the lack of a seer.

I'm starting off the voting by voting for Rick. He has single votes both days. Another one I would look at is Sythas.
 
No seer the first day, Moyank24's roll revealed to Tomorrow - what if these "mistakes" aren't mistakes at all! What if they're intentional - as in what if they are the "twists" that Comeagain? mentioned? What else is in store for us?

Hm. Interesting. Actually, I had completely forgotten about the 'twists' that had been promised. Must go back a read a little of what was said in the OP some time ago.

I guess our beloved GameGod had one too many too!

Pure poison I tell y'all! :D

There's not a lot of voting activity yet, but it's good to have some people mostly cleared for the day although it also has created a nice lost for the wolves to choose from for an infection. @Plutonius why are you suspicious of sythas?

Just the voting record. It looks like he is trying to stay out of the fray although not to the extent Rick is.

A good analysis!

Yes. Ravenvii was NW.

Ah, a few pieces are coming together now.

So, we have a number of roles identified, for now: Namely, the NW (who seem to have been @ravenvii and @Dsching), the Bartender - a gregarious role which was ably filled by @Plutonius (I would have been more than happy to sale some of your exotic wares), the Guard (@Tomorrow), and pretty much cleared for now, @Moyank24.

This leaves us with the list above put together by @Don't panic to delve into further a bit further.

Of the eight names, which include myself, @Don't panic, @Queen of Spades, @curmudgeonette, @philbeeney, @mrkramer, @Sythas and @rick snagwell, it is clear that a few of these have been flying somewhat under the radar and have been less visible than they might otherwise have been.

Sythas has voted for me twice now, and then vanished into the undergrowth. Methinks it is perhaps time to think of returning the favour. Sythas.
 
I don't suspect Don't panic at this point, simply based on behavior. curmudgeonette, being a rookie, is hard for me to read. Sythas, mrkramer, and rick snagwell have me wondering, but I'm not ready to dogpile on Sythas just yet. For now, I'm going to go with rick snagwell, but I am going to come right out and ASK him if there's any reason I shouldn't vote for him - as is so often the case, I can be swayed.

Where is Sythas' daily early-bird vote for Scepticalscribe? Holding back for a defensive vote later? At first it looked like Sythas was staying quite to protect an important role we need, but with so many roles now revealed/suspected, the odds of that have diminished.

because im not a wolf??!!

i still have to go over all this going on in the last 24-36 hours and i was very drunk yesterday due to the game, which i still can't believe denver won and lost a considerable amount of $$ betting on the dang panthers. im putting up a no vote for the moment until i go over the thread and get on the same page.
 
another rapid pileup.
i find scepticalscribe's vote a bit eyebrow-raising, but since it is shaping as a sythas-rick affair, i will go with rick on the matter

tally:
sythas: 4 (mrkramer, dsching, scepticalscribe, curmudgeonette)
ricksnagwell: 3 (plutonius, tomorrow, dontpanic)
dontpanic: 1 (philbeeney)
no vote: 1 (rick)

yet to vote: 3 (sythas,, moyank, queenofspades)

edit: ninja'd by rick, changed tally accordingly

Not really. My own eyebrows remain where they are, just above the farms of my spectacles.

In any case, it was shaping up to be a choice between rick or Sythas, and, in the absence of anything else to go on, I chose Sythas.

Actually, I was tempted to choose rick, but - in a way - he is an easier target, and is someone who, in my experience, is far too easy to pile on; once votes land on him, they don't usually change and he has a history of being voted off quickly once a critical mass of votes develop.

Having said that, forcing a tie is always interesting - not least because it compels individuals to try to defend themselves, or it may serve to flush something out.

Sythas voting for me two days running, and then disappearing, did strike me as odd, and worthy of further examination at some stage. And now that an opportunity to put him under the microscope presented itself, I would have felt very foolish if I hadn't availed of the opportunity to pry further.
