raversofbrc - [everyone] Third Night

Link:9132 Sat Jan 23 00:21:54 2010

The day passes slowly, and you sleep fitfully, as you anxiously await the next arrest. You are jarred awake by a terrible cacaphony of sirens, and peek out of your tent to see [info]parzanese standing outside of his RV. He gives off the impression that he's almost EXPECTING to get arrested.

Sure enough, the LEOs roll in, jump out of their vehicles, spin him around, and push him up against the side of the RV.

"Wait! I can explain!", he yells, but his complaints fall on deaf ears.

[info]Jeeves comes out of the RV, and is apprehended as well. The [info]duck makes loud quacking noises and disappears in a ball of confusion and flying white feathers, too small and too fast to be caught.

"Umm, sir?" says [info]Jeeves as he is pushed into a patrol car.

"You idiots! I've been working on this bust for weeks!" exclaims [info]parzanese.

"You're a cop? Right... And I'm the Queen of the May.", says the arresting officer, as he unceremoniously shoves [info]parzanese into the patrol car. Another officer can be seen wrapping the RV in yellow "crime scene" tape.

Nearly an hour passes, and [info]Jeeves returns, cuts the yellow tape, and climbs into the RV. The engine starts, and [info]Jeeves drives off into the setting sun.

As the sky darkens, Danger Ranger appears. "Holy shit," he says, "Did they ever fuck that one up! Good work kids, we've almost got 'em all now."

SUMMARY: [info]parzanese the NARC has been mistakenly arrested. His cover is blown. Lynching discussion begins here. Don't forget the official vote tally is at http://cuddlepuddle.org/~adam/lj_games

Hot damn. And I was ready to give [info]parzanese full clear because he was the first one to jump all over [info]airor.

Do the NARCs not have any telephathy with each other at all?! I mean, they don't know who they are either?

Okay - I'll start the discussion... what the hell does that mean...

How did the NARCS gang up and arrest [info]parzanese, as a NARC?

Or can we interpret this as a "no-kill" by the NARCS, but a poising by the CHEMIST.

/me wanders off to re-re-read all of the character descriptions and special properties.

so this is a crazy game so far.

the K9 and two NARCs are gone. Leaving one original NARC and the SNITCH who was probably turned last night.

right?

and remember that just because [info]parzanese was a NARC doesn't mean that the NINJA's claim entry actually was about him and there's no way to know. [info]joelzero and [info]ilovetequila claim to be plain old RAVERS with no possibility of proof.

In captain dummy talk, I agree with the later speculation, the NARCS grabbed the SNITCH, and the CHEMIST popped [info]parzanese who really was a narc anyway.

The only other interpretation I can imagine is that [info]parzanese really was a NARC, and the now only remaining NARC browbeat him into submission and the both voted against him. Wow would that be dumb.

This didn't look like a poisoning, but I can't fit my head around how, with only two Narcs, one of them can vote to arrest the other one. I think they need a majority to arrest, which means a unanimity with only two Narcs.

Oh great neon Man! Won't you give us a sign?!

The [info]duck appears, pulling a little red wagon full of sod. He proceeds to roll the sod out onto the playa, then set up a tent on it. He pulls a large piece of cardboard, a stick, and a magic marker from his tent. He impales the cardboard on the stick, and writes on it with the magic marker. He then plants it squarely in the sod for all to see: "Keep off the grass".

Reviewing the facts of last day:

One Narc got offed by sunset.
There was only two Narcs remaining at the beginning of the day.
Therefore:
It could've only been the super-potion of the Chemist that wound up getting [info]parzanese busted.
Therefore:
The Narcs didn't directly arrest anyone last day.
They found the Snitch OR they couldn't decide who to bust.

I think that them not compromising on someone to bust is bloody unlikely, although possibly due to the obvious Narc infighting going on. I think it's much more likely that one of us has turned Snitch.

Which means, two more Narcs to go.

I (unfortunately) think it was [info]parzanese that he checked. The Mayor is just too wily a player to not have to know what side he's on. That also means my "proof" of identity is gone. Nonetheless, I am a generic, pill munching RAVER. I have no special role.

I think we've found the noisy Narcs. I think one of the remaining Narcs is a quiet one. [info]ilovetequila's gut instinct resonated with me. I vote [info]hungryandhollow due to uncharacteristically mild posting.

the third, and most unlikely option of what transpired is that [info]parzanese was the SNITCH, and was targeted by the NARCS, turning him into a NARC. The chemist, could then have poisoned him.

wait, i don't know if thats true...(wouldn't the chemist have seen that he was targeted by the NARCS and then not have poisoned him?)

the chemist could also have drugged [info]parzanese and "saved" someone, which would only leave us with one NARC, if the chemist used both potions.

also last night he said

"right now it looks like a battle between the [info][info]airor and Paraneze camps. But frankly, in the 1 game I've played with each of them, they were extremely strong villagers (sorry, "ravers") and I'm not voting for either of them without some damn good evidence.
so i've picked someone at random. vote [info][info]perkyevil ."

so he may be trying to avoid voting for any NARC

Hrm. If the chemist popped [info]parzanese, he would be wandering around on long acting psychadelic, not arrested and we would know the difference.

Just like in the werewolves game, we can tell the difference between death by wolf attack and death by witch's poison, we should be able to tell the difference between someone being arrested and being slipped the chemist's psychadelic.

GM: is this correct? If someone gets slipped the long acting psycadelic, will we know it or will they appear to be arrested?

But it just doesn't make sense. A hit by the chemist should not be the same as an arrest just like a poisoning by a witch is not the same as a werewolf attack. We should be able to see the difference. I'm not seeing any possible way for these events to have transpired.

My uncharacteristically mild posting is a result of the fact that classes start this Thursday. Therefore, we've had several activities going on at church - I've spent at least 4 hours a day there monday, yesterday, and today - and i've been working 8-5 monday and tuesday and 8-1 today because i work on campus, and these are the days we have our annual training session. i usually check from work, but i've been unable to do so because i actually had stuff to do at work these last few days, and church has chewed up my remaining time.

Things we know.
We have removed from play the following roles:
([info]evilben) The GLOWSTICK NINJA
([info]the1mouse) The K9 UNIT
([info]airor) First (of three original) NARC(s)
([info]parzanese) -- seemingly the Second (of three original) NARC(s)

The DOSE FAIRY (me) could not affect the outcome of that round.
The HIGH SCHOOL CHUMS (2) could not affect the outocme of that round.
The FRAT BOY could not affect the outcome of that round.
[Also, the FRAT BOY has not been entirely deactivated and for the rest of the game can be considered just another of the original RAVERS - as there are not remaining NINJA claims to wrongly see him.]
The RAVERS (all 5 still with us! We should call them 6 from now on.) could not affect the outcome of that round.

I imagine that since only one person was taken out that the DRAMA QUEEN was not activated, but somehow survived while taking out their target. Anybody else think this is possible? (NARCS pick DRAMA QUEEN, DRAMA QUEEN was pointed at [info]parzanese (who turned out to be a NARC), CHEMIST saves DRAMA QUEEN, [info]parzanese gets busted anyway.)

Leaving us with significant players "yesterday":
2 Original NARCS
CHEMIST
SNITCH

NARCS attack [info]parzanese ([info]parzanese is not an original NARC)
Chemist is told that [info]parzanese is attacked
- Chemist Defends - how did [info]parzanese get killed then? - not possible.
- Chemist ignores - [info]parzanese dies - how did he read as a NARC? not possible.
- Chemist attacks - why would they do that? That makes No sense at all!!
NARCS attack ![info]parzanese
- Chemist Defends - how was [info]parzanese involved in this. Chemist can't save and kill in same round.
- Chemist ignores - how did [info]parzanese die? Not possible.
- Chemist Attacks - [info]parzanese, NARCS target is now turned.

Yup - that seems the only sane interpretation; that the SNITCH was targeted by the NARCS and has been activated and then the CHEMIST had it out for and nuked [info]parzanese. Wonder who the chemist is to have had that grudge, or was it who the NARCS targeted that set them off? Sadly, I'm reluctant to accept this interpretation because the SUMMARY text above doesn't match with my expectations based on the the roles descriptions.

Other theories:
1) The NARCS pick up the DRAMA QUEEN. The DRAMA QUEEN fingers [info]parzanese, but the CHEMIST (saving) potions the DRAMA QUEEN? Should be applicable since the DRAMA QUEEN wasn't actually "killed" and shouln't have been triggered.

2) The NARCS pick up [info]parzanese who is the SNITCH. The CHEMIST is informed, and chooses to doubly blow him up. Thus activation and then removing the SNITCH in one fell swoop. Why would the CHEMIST extra double attack the NARCS target?

or as i mention below, the chemist and the NARCS target him, and he's the snitch

he becomes a NARC, only to get arrested.

It's all simultaneous, I believe. The Chemist can dose the same person the Narcs bust.

Only one of the Chemist's two potions may be used on any given day.

i think my post stands as a valid point - [info]airor and paraneze were two of our strongest players in former games, and i saw no evidence that we should lynch either of them. i know it looks suspicious and you'll probably lynch me next, but i really am a plain, simple raver with no special abilites. if you have any more questions, let me know by 10 PM tonight and i'll be able to answer them - cass starts tomorrow morning so i won't be on.

so if it is done simultaneously, the chemist easily could have drugged [info]parzanese, who may was the SNITCH and trageted by the NARCS to shut him up.

I almost find that more likely than him starting the vote against [info]airor, the NARC

it would make sense for the NARCS to take him out early.

I imagine that since only one person was taken out that the DRAMA QUEEN was not activated

If the Drama Queen is busted, she is revealed as the Drama Queen. The Drama Queen is still among us.

If [info]parzanese wasn't the Snitch, that means the Chemist saw who the Snitch is! The Chemist knows who one of the remaining Narcs is!

1) In this setting is a player being removed from the game via CHEMIST potion indistinguishable from a NARC pick-up?

2) In this setting, is it possible for the DRAMA QUEEN to be activated (killed) take out their target, and then be saved - thus resulting only in the removal of the DRAMA QUEEN's target but not the DRAMA QUEEN?

I'm inclined to agree with you, but the GM's language seems to conflict with several players expectations re: a CHEMIST killing. If that is the likely possibility, why is the saved after activated DRAMA QUEEN interpretation not also valid? Liberties with notifications seem a required feature of the current outcome.

I guess the "what info you reveal" chart is different and unknown for [info]raversofbrc. It may even be different for [info]millershollow. All we know for sure is that [info]parzanese isn't here and that he was a Narc.

well, the only reason we can tell hte difference in wolf/witch attackes is the flavor text, which we are technically not supposed to use.

The only required information that the moderator gives is who is "dead" and what role they had (at the current time, in the case of the Snitch). Giving reasons why someone "died" (poison, arrested by Narcs, eaten by the Werebunny) is completely up to the moderator's discretion and is not covered by the Master Rules. There is a blind version of the game where roles are not revealed at the death of that character, but we are not playing that version.

2) As a moderator, I would rule the Drama Queen isn't dead in this case, and therefore gets no retalitory strike. I'm not sure what the rules are here.

[info]parzanese was arrested. He was not under the influence of the chemist's long lasting psychedelic.

I think I'd have had much more fun writing flavor text if the Mayor of Miller's Hollow had been hopped up on the long lasting psychedelic when he was arrested. =)

[info]parzanese was straight up arrested

not drugged, just arrested

so, there is no snitch (the two NARCS taregted [info]parzanese?), there was no "save"

1) Would I pass up such a sweet opportunity for writing flavor text that had the Mayor hopped up on some long lasting psychedelic? The long lasting psychedelic potion would not look like a normal arrest.

2) The DRAMA QUEEN only gets their free kill when they actually die.

No, we are told the difference. When someone is dead, we are told whether they were killed by wolves or poisoned by the witch.

The Man has raised his hands and spoken. [info]parzanese did not die at the hands of the CHEMIST or the DRAMA QUEEN, and game text will uniquely indentify those endings in other cases.

So then, what's the explaination that makes any sense? There's no MARTYR in this game. Have we mis-interpreted a sly and subtle role definition that permits some false report? Was there a second kill attempt the first day that the CHEMIST saved?

Alright!
SO I believe we now know:

* The snitch did not turn (there would have been no arrests).
* The chemist did not dose anyone (there would be someone out due to being dosed!)
* The drama queen did not take anyone out (this only happens if the drama queen is herself actually taken out - if she's saved, no one goes out).

Therefore

* [info]Parzanese was a narc the whole time.
* There is now one narc left in the game, and one snitch who could turn if the narc tries to arrest him.
* [info]Parzanese was arrested by himself and his fellow snitch.

I believe [info]Parzanese was counting on being saved by the witch. To give us [info]airor and then be targetted (but saved) would make him appear awfully trustworthy. But the witch did not play into his plan.

Also interesting, our two known NARCS ([info]airor and [info]parzanese) voted so far only for each other, [info]evilben(NINJA, killed), and [info]the1mouse(K9UNIT(killed)).

No evidence from their deaths of candidate fellow NARCS or likely safe RAVERS. Damn. Even in death.

A recommendation for the rest of the game, right now (still counting [info]pergatorigirl), we have eliminated 4 of 17 players. The lone remaining NARC knows their own identity. There are 7 players who think they're ordinary villagers. One of them is a SNITCH.

I imagine for the rest of the game that the lone NARC will be trying to find their SNITCH. Right now, they've got 1/11 to hunt for. If we fully reduce the number (outing all the specials) it falls to 1/6. And the DRAMA QUEEN can still be used against us anyway.

But by just blind random chance their 1/11 or 1/6 is still better than our collective 1/12 or 1/5 and the gap grows as our numbers dwindle.

So - we've got to find a way to (while not outing ourselves) hunt down the NARC from among the seven "plain" RAVERS, from the 11 people left that aren't me. Sadly, those of you that've made claims to be plain RAVERS are the targets for both sides now.

more later. and sadly, the Adam's rockin' game interface page has been down for a while now, so reading back up into the comments threads here is gonna be a pain.

Busy night tonight, so I'm not sure that I'll get back to getting into a more organized writing of my thoughts here, but this I think needs spelled out, so here goes.

All special characters, DO NOT OUT YOURSELVES... let me explain.

DRAMA QUEEN - if you out yourself you become a target for the NARC as they know you'll take someone down with you. Keep your drama bomb targeted at random villagers. If you think you've identified the CHUMs or the CHEMIST, go ahead and avoid them. If we have a highly likely second choice for lynching, you might choose them that night.

LOVERS - same above - if you out yourself you become a target for the NARC going for the two-for-one kill.

HIGH SCHOOL CHUMS - your anonymity protects the DRAMA QUEEN and the CHEMIST.

CHEMIST - You are the key to identifying the activated SNITCH.
Do not save anybody (including me, excluding yourself, you're no use to us dead). As long as you haven't saved anyone you get visibility into who the SNITCH is once activated. Very powerful. I'm not sure what to do yet once a SNITCH has been activated, not how to defend yourself should you be the target of a lynching. Any help here someone. MORE FROM ME ON THIS LATER IF I GET A CHANCE TO THINK WRITE OUT ALL THE REASONS.

EVERYBODY - the three players left in the game that are of special value to the last NARC are the SNITCH (who will increase the number of NARCS), the CHEMIST (who can both identify the SNITCH once activated and kill at will in the day), and the DRAMA QUEEN who will has that two-for-one kill value. The LOVERS also fit that bill, but not knowing how they overlap (if at all) the other roles, they can really be ignored here. The last NARC at this point is likely to be optimizing for detecting these roles.

That's it for my first pass. Think on it, comment on the holes I've left here or am blatently failing on.

I agree about the chemist. Don't kill or save anyone but yourself - none of the rest of us are important at this point. When you see someone targeted and not killed, just kill them the next day. No need to even reveal yourself.

Well, it's 4 votes for me and none for anyone else, so it looks bad for my chances. I'll just reiterate what i've said before - I've been having training sessions at work Monday-Wednesday, my classes are starting tomorrow, and my duties for the church council keep me very busy. Since this is Welcome Week for freshmen, I've spent many hours a day at church working on the welcome activities we do, which eats up my free time after work.
As for my defense of [info]airor and paraneze, that was just logic. Two of our strongest players, with no concrete evidence against either - it didn't make any sense, although i know in retrospect it looks bad.
On the other hand, it won't bother me overmuch if you lynch me (or whatever we do here in BRC :P). I haven't had the time to get into this game like I have in the past, and it looks like we'll win soon anyway - i don't see how the NARCs could come back from such a blow. But there's always a chance, so please, don't lynch me. I give you my word i'm just a raver.
Oh, and since i'll probably die anyway, here's my shameful secret - i hate raves <3

With no good evidence, a dogpile already on [info]hungryandhollow, four players that outright skipped the last vote, and appointments from 0830-0930 and 1030-1130 with an hour commute between then, I might not get a chance to do anything more than passingly scan new comments.

A second "kill" attempt is not possible unless it is the Chemist or Drama Queen. We know the kill-trip potion hasn't been used, nor has the Drama Queen been busted. There has been no second "kill".

um why would the chemist see anything about the snitch? . . . I don't know how Adam's doing it, but in Millers Hollow, the witch (chemist) sees who the victim is of the werewolves (narcs). In the case of the afflicted (snitch) there is no victim. That's all the witch (chemist) gets. There's no way I'd rat out the identity of the afflicted to the witch just because they hadn't used their healing potion.

I'm assuming Adam will either refute me or back me up.

I know that there is very little I can say, except that I've been talking a lot of strategy, and that I am in fact NOT THE NARC

it isn't that foolish to ostracize one villager, since we are so far ahead, but I think there is absolutely no proof of my guilt. And I think that there are far more suspcious characters than I.

Also, [info]parzanese voted to arrest himself, why do you think he would have put the last remaining NARC in any category? he's obviously playing a more agggressive, chancy game than we gave him credit for.
