Your animal avatar is excellent camouflage if you want to pretend to be a prevet and hang out on this forum...
I'm confused. I have lots of experience, but all I feel is regret when I play. It doesn't make sense.
Makes perfect sense. It's because you haven't wanted to be a WW-er since you were a blastocyst.
 
This is the story of how many pivotal plot points happened in the story all in one night.

The first thing that happened last night was a wedding. Or what was supposed to be a wedding. Stella couldn't go through with the wedding, and left Ted for her ex husband, Tony Grafanello. This would have resulted in Ted's death (due to inconsolable sadness), but thankfully, Marshall was still alive to console him, and thus activated his passive protection of him.

Marshall did such a good job on consoling Ted, that Ted was very quickly able to rebound! So quickly, that he started going out with Zoey Pierson the very same night (much to The Captain's dismay, since you know, they are married and all).

Interestingly enough, a younger girl, named Tracy McConnell, was able to find the ONE last night. Now she just needs to figure out a way to start dating him!

Enough with the background stuff, time to get to the real action of tonight! A very smart woman approached Marshall last night and figured out the ONLY way he could be truly deactivated. Who knows by what means she was able to do so, but the end result was a Marshall who no longer had protection.

Once the first woman was done with him, the second woman came over laughing. "What are you going to do now that you are a sniveling, puny man child with no abilities? Probably just go home and cry to your mom?" The second woman starts laughing.

Marshall looked up at the two women. "I will have you know that a very savvy man has currently employed me. He will not take kindly to this at all. Not one bit. If I do not get back to him safely, there will be consequences."

"Oh please, what's the worst that he could do to us? Pay us off with all of his money to kill him too?" Both women start laughing at this joke.

"Well, i think we have had enough fun here for one evening. Now Marshall, if you would kindly die, we would very much appreciate it." The woman raises the gun up to his head and pulls the trigger. And for safe measure, pulls the trigger another 5 times, 2 more times in the head, once in the heart, and twice in the lungs. "Well, that's one less nuisance we have to worry about!" The women chuckle and head on their respective ways.

Dead is Marshall, villager turned to CHAOS, who could force a lynch through regardless of any lynch protections, could protect one person each night, and would passively protect Ted against heartbreak, primarily that of being left at the altar.

Later that night, Barney is told the news of Marshall's death. Barney looks sad for a second, but that gets incredibly happy. "Wait, this means no lame married couple shooting down all of my amazing ideas. GUYS! GREAT NEWS! I AM THE NEW LEADER OF THE GANG!!!!!!"

Barney goes into his own world, and you can hear him say, " ba ba ba baa baaaaaaaa baa ba ba Barney is the new leader of the gang andlifejustgotmoreawesome!!!" Who knows what Barney will do with his new found role as gang leader?!

Also, what would be the difference between chaos and neutral?
chaos usually has its own win condition, or if not, is very hard to kill and is included in the game just to cause a lot of trouble for villagers and wolves.

neutral usually means there is no win condition, and the players do not really count for either side.

but... with STL... who knows what it really means.
 
I've been doing some sleuthing, and I found out who tried to kill Ted last night by leaving him at the altar.

Lynch DVMD

How come when I use multiple colors as a mod, all I hear about is "SOV and his colors🙄" in a very sarcastic tone, but you do it and not a peep.
There is some serious unequal treatment going on here.

Harumph.

Nope.

I did not.

I am Stella. I didn't do any leaving anyone at the altar. STL even PMed me to say directly, "You did not leave Ted at the altar, this was preplanned".

Direct words from STL.

You lynch me, you lose a big part of this game that has been doing a LOT to keep the seers safe behind the scenes.
 
I want to hear from @WillowLeaf about this BS claim that someone found out devyn was a wolf but can't state it on the thread so therefore an anonymous PM had to be sent out to inform people of it.

THIS is what needs to be settled and what I was working on so hard yesterday to clear up behind the scenes, but since I have "preplanned" lost my contatct with Ted (not amused) I can't do it in PMs anymore, so now it gets to be addressed on the thread.

Any idea who planned it, then?

I wish. I would lynch their ass. To be honest, I think STL has this game on a sort of auto pilot and wants it to go a certain way. But I really don't know that nor do I know how or why it was "preplanned". I hate mods that "preplan" things in games... design it and let it play out however it does.

That's plausible, though how would you explain "she may kill someone by breaking their heart by leaving them at the altar." from STL himself? It just seems a bit suspicious, is all.

It would make sense for the story line if it was "pre-planned," (and this is an STL game after-all...) " but what if Marshal was already dead then, would Ted have died I wonder?

So basically either:

1. Devyn is actually a wolf
2. Willow is a wolf though knowing who she is I have doubts.
3. Whoever the hell claimed devyn to be a wolf to willow is wolf.

But there you go... I have given you another wolf in the set above, unless there is some faulty crap going on there.

I can leave someone at the altar, it has a 75% chance of killing them. I have not done that. Hence why STL cleared it up to me. And I won't do that unless it is needed. Hell, I was going to use it on you but I was advised by others that know more about the show that it probably won't work with you, so I held onto it.

I do like how you reveal that one aspect of my roll though... instead of the fact that I can do about 5 other things that directly benefit and have been benefitting villagers.... which side are you really on? If you are going to cherry pick out that one ability... seems you are trying to help wolves.

Also this altar thing is a ONE time ability... once used it is gone... so basically I could use it tonight to prove I still have it. But it seems pointless to do that and possibly kill someone that isn't a wolf... I am open to suggestions.

And no, I am not neutral or chaos either.

I'm aware of your other abilities (I can reveal them if you would like, I didn't because I figured you wouldn't want your entire role shared), and I also know that as of a few nights ago you were still a villager. However, I'm also aware that there can be converts, so when I saw you stood Ted up at the altar, I figured you tried to kill him, not that it was pre-planned. :shrug:

That makes sense. No don't reveal the rest. But I have shared my role in full to 2 people already. Every detail. I would be the dumbest wolf on earth to suddenly use the leave someone at the altar ability because they would instantly call me out on it.

And since you know my roll I have been using number 1 of it every night on a seer.... I am thinking you have it in the right order, so this should make sense to you.

I am still a villager. I don't understand the preplanned BS. I wish that I did, but I don't. I still have the altar ability but so no reason to use it at this point, better to save it for a difficult to kill wolf...
 
Meh. I've been talking to DVMD all game. She was upfront with me about her abilities long ago.

In the show, Ted even calls Stella (as a friend) toward the end of the last season. I don't think she's a wolf.

Sticking with my devyn vote for now.

But really guys.... pay attention to this, please. I am basically handing you a wolf in one of 3 people here.... so it is kind of important. You can seer me again tonight, lynch me tomorrow, I don't care, but seriously... this here... this will find you a wolf.

Or some serious odd crap that even I am still confused on, which is why I am bringing it up.
 
HIMYP was in the Original Apartment group yesterday, right? I suppose I should be the best person to remember that, but I think she was. I'm going to lynch Willow for now.

I can do that, too. My take on it is that we have to lynch either Willow or Devyn (and then the other if we don't find a wolf the first time).

Sorry, I'm confused. There was a message, it was anonymous and willow sent it? Claiming devyn is a wolf?
 
I am confused.

1) If Willow sent an anonymous message then how do you know it is willow?
2) If a message was sent about Devyn, wouldn't these seers you are protecting have seer-ed Devyn and we would have an answer. I mean, maybe you can't communicate with them, but you could see who they vote for, and that would decide it.
3) Not sure what I think of a player's ability being mentioned in the write-up and then they say they didn't use it. If you said Ashgirl used it, I could believe that.

All-in-all, i am not inclined to lynch dvmd today. As she says, she should be checked out tonight.

I agree with LIS. Lynch devyn or WL, assuming we have confirmation it is actually WL who sent the message, but I really don't understand how one of them is not already checked out.

I was also unimpressed with Devyn's lame defense yesterday when she was being lynched. Just not sure if she would be more likely to put up so little defense if she was a wolf or villager.

I want to wait to see if DVMD can receive a clue from a seer about this, and then vote later, but I prefer more people vote so we don't know exactly who the seer is that DVMD is waiting to see.

so lynch Devyn temporarily.
Will adjust later if necessary.
