Serial Killer Round 70: Soviet Submarine Slaughter!

[crimson5pheonix]

VOTE FOR BEERTENT

Wrong round.

Now, I'm not trying to defend anyone but I will say that it is possible not just the Killer was delayed, but others were to, if they live in certain portions of Washington, they were without electricity for at least 24 hours...due to wind storms...
...and bros, there be some serious fires going on in Washington.

Just sayin', the killer might not be someone who isn't very active, but someone who couldn't get on the site due to outside influence.

So we need to kill the Washingtonites is what I'm hearing here.

@EvilRoy: I'd be a hypocrite if I didn't speak up in Dirty Cop's defense. Because despite the fact you're simply playing around, that is how the bandwagon shenanigans start. Suddenly you influenced enough people to kill someone before they even had a chance to testify or defend themselves. I'm not getting on you, but if you're kidding- be careful with what you say. People around here are known for killing off anyone for the slightest excuse ... even if it's so obvious that the evidence is very flawed.

@Dirty Cop James funs: Surprised I defended you? When I claim i'm against this trend of getting people executed before the first cycle, I mean it regardless of whom it's aimed for (yes I am bringing this up and this will be the final time I talk about it... alright stopping now).

Well there's no defense anyone can provide at this point beyond trying to claim a role which will get them Americanized. But I will admit some suspicion of Dirty Cop. Dragging their feet on purpose then pretending it was someone more inactive seems like a decent tactic. Of course it's not really possible to discern whether it was a feint or a real delay so that leaves us at square one.

The only bit of information I get from this is that Dirty spoke up. The question is whether he would have genuinely missed the possibility this was deliberate. If he was usually pretty savvy then this may look a bit suspicious.

@EvilRoy: Are they all within a "circle of lies" or within a "lie of circles", EvilRoy?

Whoa here are we back to prejudice against the openly evil? I'll have you know my attachment for the sin of sloth keeps be far away from being able to actually murder someone. Unless I, like, influenced someone to follow in my footsteps and they died from too much fat in the arteries or something.

@Frap

As with all things I remain simultaneously irreverent and irreconcilable which is a weird mix, but fun thanks to the extra arrrrs. I remain suspicious of most things and indeed all people until a better option comes up. Plus Dirty seems pretty sneaky. Anyway, once again I've proven my innocence because if I was the killer I totally would have killed him to keep him from murdering me because he's the killer.

 

[Crysan]

Yay! First game and I lived a round! (Sorry Scars, I don't mean to dance on your grave...)

Please don't kill the pumpkin.

Over here in SK, we don't just kill pumpkins. We carve them...very, very slowly, heheheh...that is, if the bigger pumpkins don't eat you first.

Unless you picked him as your lawyer!

O NO! SCARS UNSEEN IS DEAD! Who do you like the least? time for voting!

do I just Pm you

Yes, we vote anonymously via PM to the GM. Some GMs also allow a recasting of votes within the time limit, I do not believe snekadid has made any statements as to whether he will allow this or not.

You do. Probably putting the name of your nominee in the subject to make it easier

@DCJf

o snap, backfire. Everyone keep him alive. Extremely alive. Medic, priest, get to it. Round the clock watch.

Edit:
Wait I haven't even voted yet. Where's the spy with the list of nonsense? I need to know who to kill. For super serialization - last time I had no idea what to do :\

 

[Secondhand Revenant]

@Secondhang Revenant: For all I know, Dirty could be guilty. But I highly doubt it ... unless the Spy forges the list of suspects. Hopefully they do, and not remain silent .. because usually we lose when the Spy cannot inform their peers on the possible Killer. But, on the other hand... now that we have that new role Doppleganger, it's going to be quite tricky to narrow down the suspects without prolonging the game. Hopefully things work out, but ... we'll have to see.

Why would you highly doubt it? I mean at least, is there a particular reason to consider him more likely to be innocent?

All I have to go on is his comment, in which he either failed to consider or mention that the delay could be a ruse or he deliberately did not say it. It's not much but to me it's a bit more solid than trying to guess how absent the killer may have been. And I say this as someone who was indeed active at the time we were waiting

 

[Secondhand Revenant]

@Dirty Cop James funs: See what happens? When one person suggests someone should die- everyone goes with it. No second thoughts, no 'hold on, let me rethink' segments or just observing everyone else. It's just decided and the next thing you know- a mob has you by the noose (hangman knot).

Personally, I didn't vote for you. I already sent a vote in one an unactive member, mainly because I believe the Killer was inactive regardless of being lazy / busy / disabled from acting sooner. We'll have to see what follows.

It was only me and it was because of his incomplete assessment of the activity of the killer. I didn't do it just because EvilRoy joked about it. I'd already considered the possibility of the killer deliberately delaying, which is why I didn't start a hunt for the inactives

The spy is unlikely to reveal himself at this point. He would have little information and speaking up would get him killed before he could really ask enough questions

What so I have to stab at random? Again? At least I'm used to it. Y'know I didn't actually successfully get one person killed last round regardless of guilt or innocence despite not missing a vote.

 

[Secondhand Revenant]

@Fraps: I'm actually pretty chill about it.


@Secondhand Revenant: I doubt it's a ruse, mainly because I never witnessed one during my ye olde days of SK. The closest is a reverse ruse, where Lizzy pretended to be busy to avoid suspension. But in actuality? She was very, very active.

I'm also somewhat doubtful but it's something I'd do so I don't want to lean too hard the other way.

And also I'm suspicious because you didn't at least mention that it could be a ruse. Of course you could have not considered it or not considered it important but it also could be you left it out deliberately to better influence people. It's a pretty flimsy suspicion but it's still a suspicion. If you'd originally acknowledged the possibility of it being a rude I wouldn't be suspicious.

Also your attitude to it is rather good. It's the good attitude of good team playing villager. You die, not too big a deal since in this game you still have a voice... but then if I were guilty is try to emulate that too...

I'm kind of overly suspicious perhaps.

Pretty much, yes! Well you've got James' suspicion and my suspicion to go off of if you want.

I suggest everyone going with James'idea work together to name a single person. The list of more inactive people is big so if you all go randomly that may be an issue

 

[Secondhand Revenant]

@Secondhand Revenant: You make good points- however, it is simply cycle 1. I doubt everyone (even combined) has little to no evidence on the Killer. We're picking at straws, and anything is possible. The Killer could be the most active / talkative person we know. Or he / she is the one accusing people, or playing it chill ... or even editing lewd pictures to throw you off.

We can't tell. Only the Spy can show us the way, if they decide to help / say anything.
Although we do have one clue. Unseen Scars died, whom was silent ... and though it was possibly a random kill- it still shows the Killer has (perhaps), no idea whom has a role. So we're at the advantage for now.

Oh yeah I know that for sure. Which is why I pick at Dirty Cop's slight omission of information and consider whether it was deliberate. It's my current straw I'm grasping at.

Hmm. Hard to figure who would kill Scars. Possibly just random at the moment.

I'm actually pretty sure I count as suspicious under his ruling because I didn't bother contributing to the obvious madness creeping into peoples brains until I knew I was playing and then until the killer actually woke up. Oh the woes of the one sane man, watching the rest of you suspicious insane bastards point accusations at each other.
