HoWW I Met Your Mother: Game Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
14min to go and I'm still tied...

I'm Sandy Rivers. I wrote that headline - I thought I'd be cute by writing out the emoticon since Sandy reads them out loud on his show (as I understand). I can write one headline each day that comes out on the main thread. Additionally, since my character is a womanizer, I can ask one woman out to a date each night. If successful, I can PM with them overnight.

Last night, I attempted to date Ashgirl. I received the response that "he doesn't date bros" (emphasis mine), so I included the deliberate "he" to try and provide some information in the headline.

I wasn't told my alignment, and I wasn't set up in any PM groups. I think I'm a villager, but other WW games have made me paranoid.

If you let me live, tomorrow's headline will be "Sandy Rivers lives to see another day by town's mercy"
 
unlynch zen....lynch snowwhite

I have a good role too. Definitely a villager role. You don't want to see me lynched this early in the game.
 
Someone else should take over

Gwen - 1 (Rogert)
Ash - 2 (DocE, WZ)
Cyndia - 2 (Dyachei, Gwen)
Honeyt - 2 (LIS, Devyn)
Snowwhite- 6 (Tucker, Cyndia, Swiniazycie, Zen, ZVH, RM)
Hammer - 1 (SOV)
NilocDent - 0
Swings - 0
ZVH - 4 (Caia, DVMDream, Foxhunter, Jilary)
Zensing - 2 (BI, Orca)
SOV- 1 (Hammer)
Devyn - 1 (Allie)
 
Whoops. I was reading Dr. Seuss books for 3 hours today at a elementary school. Trying to catch up now. ###lynch honey###
 
You all talk a lot, I didn't catch up in time to vote.

Something about ashgirl/Barney is really strange, and I could see her being chaos. I hope someone can look into her.
 
The outraged Marshall has decided to head up this lynch, due to his outrage over the death of his dear friend Daphne.

Originally, the crowds started crowding around Zensing. But then everyone realized that Zensing was Sandy Rivers, who could DEFINITELY not be a wolf, so everyone decided to form a last minute circle around two unsuspecting victims, snow white96 and ZVH.

Robin approaches ZVH first and makes a realization. "Patrice?"

"Robin, I love you so much, I made you these cookies. So how can I help you Robin? Apparently they want to kill me and everything, but I just want to do anything that I can to help you. So what is that I can..."

"NO ONE ASKED YOU PATRICE!" And with that Robin gladly takes out a gun and does the will of the group and shoots her in the head.

Dead is ZVH, Patrice, who would be able to do ANY night action so long as Robin requested her to do the action. Unfortunately, she was unable to communicate with Robin or anyone else her ability to do so, and was only allowed to vaguely ask Robin about needing any assistance.

Then Robin looks over at the next person..... "Don......"

"Robin, I am so sorry about what happened. They told me about offering you the job when I got down there. I never meant to hurt you, I just.... I didn't ever think I would get a chance like that again. I hope you can forgive me..."

"Oh I can forgive you. I can definitely forgive you. But do you remember what I said on the phone. I am going to kill you. I will put your stupid face on a deep dish pizza and eat it. And that is exactly what I will do." And with that she shot him in his stupid face killing him. And she had deep dish pizza later that night.

Dead is Snow White96, Don Frank, who after finding Robin, would have been able to expose a wolf via her night action.

Womp womp villagers, better luck next time.

Night is officially started, deadline for tonight is set for 7 am (I will be doing a 4 hour drive starting at 7, and it will close as soon as I am back)
 
I wanted to save this for when we lynched a wolf, but I will never find it again....

This is SOV (or @LetItSnow)'s celebration dance:

This is the best.
 
Well, the good news is that gives us a little information about wolves...since both of those roles would have been helpful in catching wolves, and they both connected to Robin, it seems likely that the main group of characters are not wolves.

Someone has to be first. You picked the wrong someone!

*******************************************************************
 
So it looks like we lost two useful people. At the same time, it seems like this game is entirely based around finding people (my role also requires me to find one of the main characters before it does anything.), and thus we might have an excess of good roles that are balanced by the unlikely chance they will ever be activated due to the seriously limited communication STL has imposed upon us. Or at least that's what I'm hoping the deal is.
 
I'm pretty sure the press release came from a player and newish one since they referred to Ashgirl as a he. Could be SOV/LIS I suppose but they don't seem very likely to use an emoticon like that.

Hahahahaha. I appreciate the nod, but I'm amused that you think I have the time to write that press release.

I actually asked Mr. Mod himself on this one, and the hoax simply meant that it was a hoax to anyone but me, meaning that I would be the only one who could become mayor and receive benefits for it.

This <might> be true, but it really, really strikes me as bullcrap.

If you let me live, tomorrow's headline will be "Sandy Rivers lives to see another day by town's mercy

While that would confirm your ability (or that you can PM someone who has that ability), it doesn't really make you a villager or a wolf. And Sandy Rivers is someone I could see either way (at least, at this point in the game).

@LetItSnow can you spare this fragile noob just couple more days of life..? :c

Had I been around during the day, this plea would definitely have been enough for me not to vote for you. I don't really care for the little smushy faced breeds, but 'fragile noob' is too good of a term not to reward its usage.

I really can't believe everyone is falling into this ridiculously obvious STL trap. Ashgirl isn't a wolf. And lynching Barney will mess some things up seriously bad. I would strongly encourage you not to unless we've got someone that can revive him after this obvious mistake.

I didn't vote for Ashgirl, but if I would have, it wouldn't have been because I think she's a wolf - it would have been because I'm pretty sure (as much as I can be without any actual data) that she's neutral or chaos. And I'd definitely vote to take out neutral/chaos.
 
Just as a heads up, left an hour later then I was supposed to, deadline will be 8 am, and night will close almost immediately from there
 
This is unfortunately going to have to be fairly short and sweet for right now as I have class in a few.

Last night's events began at the Lusty Leopard. Chillbo baggins, aka Carl Maclaren, decided it was time to go back to enjoy some lap dances, since he had so much fun there the night before, when he got Ranjit completely wasted. He immediately hones in on a blonde stripper that was wearing a black lacey thong and a black lacey bra. She turns around and looks at him, and smiles as she says, "Hey sexy, do you want a lap dance?"

She takes no time to start giving one of the most vigorous, sexy lap dances of her life. I am not even sure if descriptions of this type of lap dance are lounge appropriate. 10 minutes later, she says to him, "Why don't we take this back to the champagne suite?" He eagerly follows her to the back. Once back there, she hands him a blindfold. "Put this on and no peeking, I will be back in just a second."

She walks off, and almost instantaneously, he feels hot breath on the nape of his neck. "You really are quick, I didn't even hear....." And that's when the knife was stabbed straight through his back severing his spine. A minute later, there is a loud scream, definitely coming from a girl, and the police are called.

Dead is Chillbo Baggins, Carl Maclaren, who could use a "Robin Sherbatsky" (the drink) to enhance someone's powers, stop all night actions for one night, block someone with beer, or create his own shot that would have mixed effects on people that were daring enough to drink it.

On the other side of town, Tuckervet, aka Clint, was walking around trying to spread harmony. He finally came upon a girl who was tolerant enough to listen to him. In fact, she even broke out her guitar and appeased him by playing kumbaya songs and all that ish with him. Neither of them noticed the female that came up right behind them. The female in all black was intent on killing the girl with the guitar, but the sound of Clint's voice was infuriating to her. She couldn't deal with his terrible songs, his terrible voice, or for that matter, anything about him, and drove the sword she was carrying straight into Clint's back. The girl with the guitar almost reflexively crashed the guitar over the head of the female in all black and made a break for it. She escaped unharmed, while Clint was not as lucky....

Dead is Tuckervet, Clint (the martyr), who in his efforts to promote peace, would die in place of anyone he decided to protect on a given night.

In other news, a dark new presence can be felt by many as of last night. And some interesting information was obtained by several people.

Lynch deadline is set for 8 pm.

Tuckervet was protecting me last night. That the wolves came after me makes me suspicious of DVMD and zensing, as I had communication with both of them last night and was pretty open about having a possibly important role. I'd investigate the both of them.

Come at me wolves

Edited to re-add picture because someone's bandwidth limit was exceeded.
 
I got a message last night. Probably the same person who sent MJ a message because of reasons. It made me laugh and I wanted to say thanks 😀

I've got no new info to share today. Still interested in trying an Ashgirl lynch though...

In other news. Power worked on ashgirl this time around. Which bodes a little better for them.

I wouldn't be that suspicious of DVMD because of that...she's a veteran who is smarter than to act on info like that the same day she got it. Zensing on the other hand.... but yeah investigating them to be sure wouldn't hurt

I agree. But with my inability to communicate and Zensing being a noob, I could see her trying to take me out since I had no way of telling anyone I was in communication with her, and Zensing is nooby enough to probably not put the pieces together.

I'm not accusing either of them though, just saying they're worth a look.
 
The two kills last night is a little weird. I wonder if the wolves get some extra kills, or if that means there might be a chaos with a kill ability.

Do you think ashgirl is a villager, or just that abilities seem to work on her now?

Did either of them know you were also able to communicate with the other though?

Yup, we could all 3 communicate in one PM. I didn't say much because I have said many times I don't do PMs really, you want to PM me fine, but don't expect me to say much or tell you anything.

Also, pay attention to the last lynch, MJ made it very clear then (at least to me) that he had an important role. So, it is just as likely anyone who was reading the thread picked up on it and attacked him.

I was blocked by ashgirl day one. But it worked this time around. Honestly not sure if ash would have blocked anyone who interacted with her the first night or if i was specifically blocked by her. But point is, if power worked on her this time around I'm less concerned about some wolf immunity to my role (though it by no means clears her. I just think failing twice would have been damning)

Yes. It was a 3 way convo.

I have it on good authority that there are a bunch of different factions in this game. Including a half faction somehow.
 
Lynch dyachei

Because, and stop me if you've heard this one, f the police.

What I lack in good ideas right now I make up on with boredom in the pediatric ER

Put on a sheet, pretend to be a ghost, go scare the poop out of some kids. Hopefully one of them has a bowel blockage so you can claim alternative treatment.

I manually disempacted a kid today. I tried everything I could to argue it wasnt necessary. But that kid had an abd x-ray that was... well... impressive. There was going to be some issues exiting unassisted.

I wish i thought of the sheet technique.
 
I still have no information. I tried my night action on ashgirl night one, and ksmi night two, and both times it didn't work. My action has no ties to indicating affiliation, but because I don't want to lynch Barney just yet and I'm curious why my action didn't work, I'm going to lynch ksmi. There is always the chance that it is simply an ineffective night action, or I timed it poorly with other people's actions, so admittedly this is a really weak reason for lynch. But oh well, was going to have to RNG otherwise.
 
Lynch HowIMetYourPet

So far inactive and I'd rather lynch an inactive player than an active one given a lack of information.

Also, I've never seen the show, so for people who have, who do you think the wolves would be? I realize this is an STL game so that may be harder to figure out. I know everyone was surprised that Piper was a wolf in OitNB.

To be fair. Piper was a chaos faction.
