Hanged Man June 2, 2015 Share June 2, 2015 Wow - no way would I declare myself to be a 'very important' hero this early in the game. It puts a huge target on your back. Maybe it's a bluff and he is a kamikaze character. Or a doublebluff and he is counting on the villains being bluffed into thinking he is a kamikaze Or maybe he is a villain and it doesn't matter what he says since the villains arent going to come after him Or maybe it's the truth and he is just messing with everybody 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/96915-the-princess-bride-mafia/page/3/#findComment-1205148

Oinky Boinky June 2, 2015 Share June 2, 2015 I also have to say, I hope the Grandfather and Grandson are NOT characters, as I don't want to think about what will happen to the story if one of them dies... I had another thought (brace yourselves) In games where there is a princess, a beloved princess (and who could be more beloved than our Buttercup?)if she is killed the town may be forced into mourning. Anywhere from 1 to 3 days with no town abilities. Now as some of you want to cheerfully march to the end of a useless no lynch day think about the addition of days with no ability to DL. I would like more discussion of SVNBob and his declaration of importance + dire warning. That should be day 8 on his deathbed talk, not his first post, first day.

If there were no option to lynch for a period of time, there would be no reason for discussion and the thread would dwindle to nothing but drinking and popping in to see what the villains did each night.

Oinky Boinky June 2, 2015 Share June 2, 2015 You immediately go to another night when the beloved is killed. How I like to see day one proceed is discussion of the story and clues. Discussion with each other. Try to rattle someone and see what happens ie what SVNBob said was huge. And while you are asking I like to see a DL at the end of day one. For those who want to give odds on a hero being DL'd we know the odds of no villain being killed are 100% with no DL. Do you not agree when you are the villain you absolutely love the no DL day? For day one non contributors are good for DL - they are not helping and the odds are the same re hero or no. Currently it is really easy to lay low in this game and get a by into the heart of the game. And if you are not getting the clue on Day 1, pretty sure you are not getting the clue on Day 2 but that is the day you will choose to DL someone. I don't see the difference in Day 1 DL and Day 2 DL or it is miniscule. I'm not going to argue this point anymore- the villains will be happy with a no DL. I won't vote for it. I am going to go back and read for clues. It would be nice to hear from anyone who hasn't posted yet. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/96915-the-princess-bride-mafia/page/3/#findComment-1206156

(I think this Q is for me, right?) When I was a Recruitable, I preferred a Day 1 DL because maybe we kill a villain, maybe a hero, whatever. When I was a Villain, I preferred a Day 1 DL, because I knew who my friends were, it was easy to join forces to encourage or direct suspicion at someone and YAY dead Hero. Now I feel differently. I am protective over my allies, and really not willing to take a chance with their lives. Just want to say the following - Oinky was equally as aggressive about a D1-DL in the last game and she was a Hero (Buffy.)

Does anyone know, because I sure as hell didn't. Maybe it was a lease, or she was upside down on the mortgage and sold it to get out from under it. Maybe she didn't pay her property taxes. Maybe farming was too much for a single girl with a broken heart. Maybe she wanted to leave the farm and escape the memories of true love. Maybe a huge conglomerate bought the property around hers and cut her off from water and the roads. Maybe a neighboring farm was jealous of her beauty and true love and filed a complaint with the EPA that her farming was endangering the habitat of the rare spotted shrew and she was forced to cease and desist all farming activities while an investigation took place, however the investigation took so long that she couldn't financially support herself. OR maybe the farm was hers provided she was making solid gains towards matrimony and when Westley left and died, she shut her self in and mourned so the executor of the will that gave her the farm decided she was in forfeiture of the farm. Maybe it was raided by trolls; mean ones not the good ones. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/96915-the-princess-bride-mafia/page/3/#findComment-1207972
