I'm not sure what to think on the whole dagny thing, it seems like she could possibly just be some sort of ISK. I know someone brought that up in the very beginning, I think those roles usually have protection for a certain number of nights so that could play right into why she's gotten out of being killed multiple times now. I think it's best not to focus too much on her for right now and move in another direction. Come back to her in a few days when we might have more clarity on the situation, plus we don't waste another attempted kill if she's still protected.

I also don't think she should use her special power she's implied right now, if she's telling the truth there's no reason to use it just yet imo.

I'm starting to get hungry, I could really go for a smore but we don't have chocolate, graham crackers or marshmallows :scared: , I tried making one that had sand and coconut milk between two slices of pineapple but that was terrible.

I don't understand. I did keep the poll going.

"Some" people don't seem to understand why I haven't revealed it yet, since they voted yes. I'm not going to unless there's a village consensus, but apparently I had to explain that to them.

redwill really, really, really wants to know what it is.

dags...i see what you're saying with somethings being better left unsaid so the baddies don't know, but at the same time you have to understand that everything looks very suspicious.

Yeah, but the other baddies will now either a) avoid the answer, or b) answer opposite.

I just wish you would have just kept it going w/o saying that.

Just my point of view. Doesn't mean I'm right.

To me, dags is obviously lying. That "explanation" was such a a jumbled, garbled pile of poo I am amazed that people believe it. And I'm not sure how just voting for a quiet person helps us.

Really to be honest, the only thing that stuck out in my mind, and this is the last thing I'm going to add to the Dagny conversation is that.
These JOAT powers are a little different. I do not have a kill option. There is a completely different power that we've never had in the game before, but it will become pointless if I divulge it. It can be an absolute game breaker near the end of the game, though.

I also get one seer option, but there's a condition that must be met, that I'm not allowed to reveal, before I can use it.

I'll now be asking for the angel's assistance in protecting me at night. Angel is still hidden, so it can at least keep the baddies guessing as to whether or not they should waste another night on me.
It just seems to fake and forced. She had the ability to protect herself once, had she said, that she was able to protect herself multiple nights, it would of kept the bad guy's guessing. I mean, it's just laid out to me, and feels very forced IMO. I look at it at a few ways.

1) She's the baddies angel, and she protected herself, "knowingly" that most of the heat was going to be on her, which it was. Now she's using this last ditch effort to get something to stick.

2) she's the alpha or regular, and basically read the rest of part 1.

3) Or she's telling the truth.

To me, I'm willing to explore option #3. I'm fine with her surviving a few days, but until something more is gained about this special "game breaking" ability, I am hesitant at the very least. If it's really that game breaking, why would you even say it? It's either really selfish in order to keep yourself alive, and or you're a baddie trying to extend your stay.

Every time there have been weird events like this (i.e. the person being protected multiple times) the person has turned up red. I go back to when I was the Godfather, and you guys tried to kill me two separate times.

1. that role was used only once or twice in these games and never stuck.
2. it wouldn't be called "mayor", if it were some power for this game i bet it would have some lost connotation to the role or power title.
It is called the mayor power, my protect was called the angel power, my research is called the seer power, my other power is called the politician. Something we've NEVER had before.

I find it odd that she mentions only this "game changing power" no power to see no power to kill. I dont know it just seems odd.

not to change the subject or anything, but have we given any thought as to what happened to mac? i mean, i know he's missing, but what caused his absence? random choice by the mods? someone having a specialized role? dags and mac were the only two that something happened to, i would think the baddies tried to kill someone last night and the only attempt to kill was on dags.

"the politician"............oh come on. If you are telling the truth, i apologize. But this reeks of the "making up a new title" game...kind of like when I made up the "scout" rule in NHL Warz.

I agree. I find it odd that Mac is gone and something tried to kill Dagny.

Yeah I pretty much agree here. Something seems up with it, but I'm willing to let it go to the backburner for a little bit and go in another direction.

I'm trying a new smore recipe with some pineapple and scorpions between a few english muffins I found in the wreckage anybody want some?

If the village concurs, I'll reveal what it is, use it tonight to prove it, and then we can quit wasting our time on me, and go after those of you who are pushing so hard for me to reveal it.

Outside of Redwill who is pushing that hard? I think it's fair to say most of us don't believe you, but hardly pushing.

THIS is what I want to know, but I hesitated posting about it for fear of people thinking I was trying to deflect.

I can not come up with anything or any role to fit this situation.

A missing villager? What kind of role does that? Will he come back? HOW will he come back? Who took him? Are they good or bad?

omg.... dharma?

maybe a dharma faction and an others faction? maybe to make a recruit in this game they have to be taken overnight?
