    I hope that wasn't directed at me. I was trying to keep it general.
  2. Walter Kovacs
    For obvious reasons, I'm much more inclined to vote for Redblade today. Since the Masons have come out, they've not led us astray. And I see no reason to not continue that trend. Zepher, you almost sound like you are trying to divert attention from a scummy compatriot.
  3. Walter Kovacs
    Because there are other valid reasons why an investigation result can come up wrong. The investigator wasn't necessarily lying, so immediately lynching him because he gave an incorrect result only weakens the town, and moves the scum closer to a win. Plus, if the investigator is on the level, the Town has just lynched one of their most powerful tools. Accusations in Mafia rarely have solid evidence backing them up. Most lynches are based on hunches and nitpicking the small details of what a player said... and what a player has not said. Typically the town stars out with a few mis-lynches. But as information comes in, and everyone talks a bit more, the town usually manages to pull together and starts finding the scum. That's what is happening here, it's happening in EB II. You can only hope that it happens before the Town loses too many players and can't recover. But sometimes the Town has a miserable failure. Take a look at Prohibition or Bloodbrick I. The scum won both of those without the town finding any scum. You'll understand when you're in the heat of battle. Things look much different when it's you trying to connect the dots, as opposed to the observers watching from above.

    I agree. Peanuts was not the killer last night. He could still be scum. I was just getting the info out so that everyone knows what went on last night.

    mayor:L'il KielDaMan (KielDaMan) Long live the Mayor (or at least do better than your predesessors.) I'm sorry to see Endgame go. But the battle lines should be pretty clear Stupid phone. There should be a now at the end of that sentence. On Endgame's orders, I blocked Peanuts last night. So we at least know he wasn't out killing last night, as I didn't get blocked last night either.

    I am Town. I'm just trying to put all the pieces together so that I know who to believe. Right now there are only two people I can trust. You, and myself. I want to make sure that you have thought about every permutation. It looks like most players are going to follow your lead. If you think about it and still come to the conclusion that Rick is Scum, then by all means lynch him. But if there is doubt in your mind, is there anyone else who makes a better lynch target? That's all I'm trying to do. Make sure that the ones leading us have thought everything through.
  7. Walter Kovacs
    I've been doing a lot of thinking over multiple scenarios. And Li'l KDM is right, we will need to stick together if Rick is going to get convicted. If the vote ends up tied, he can save himself. Unvote: Li'l Capt. Redblade (Capt. Redblade) Vote: Li'l Rick (Rick) The only caveat is that Li'l KDM doesn't know something we don't. Like Rick is Town, and the scum have four members, and Rick's mis-lynch will send the Scum happily to the win. "Join us in the Rick bandwagon, and seal the Town's doom!" If we truly are in a Lynch Or Lose situation, the last thing we want to do is blindly follow one person, but use the brains God gave us and make sure our lynch is as good and well-informed as it can be. We know that if Rick is scum, there can only be three or less scum left. But if there are four scum, Rick CANNOT be one of them. Explanation for Peanuts: If there were four scum, and Rick was among them, they could vote for any townie, and by virtue of the Mayor-hood, break any tie in the Scum's favor. I'm not asking anyone to un-vote Rick. Just make certain you know it is the right thing to do.
  8. Walter Kovacs
    Nope, I cannot block the same target two nights in a row. And since I targeted Redblade last night, he is off limits.
  9. Walter Kovacs
    Don't get so jumpy, KDM. There is plenty of time left in the day to get a little discussion going, and perhaps learn something. I've PM'd Endgame already, and I told him that I have every intention of following his lead on this vote. But as for now, all we have is his statement that he is going to vote for Rick. In my eyes, Redblade is far scummier than Rick right now, so I want to give Endgame a little food for thought, and give Redblade a reason to talk to us. I have other reasons as well. I attempted to block Redblade last night. So if Rick and Redblade are both scum, I would not be able to block Redblade, but could block Rick. I'd much rather not hamstring myself in target choice tonight if Endgame believes both are scum. I'd prefer to keep their killer at bay, if it's all the same. And if Redblade is the killer, I wouldn't be able to do that. And if it wasn't obvious, I have left my target for tonight in Endgame's hands. He knows who else is in the Masonic block, while I don't. So he is much better placed to help me target a scum. It's not like the masons think Redblade is town, either. Dave was the one who asked me to block Redblade last night. Just like Pie had me block TBW the night before.

    10123 Cloud City Cloud City.mpd There are several issues. Luke Skywalker has the wrong Torso print. Lando Calrissian has the wrong Head print, Torso print, and his cape is not reversible. Instead I put a second cape on him, offset so that it looks like it is Yellow on the inside and Medium Blue on the outside. Boba Fett has the wrong helmet, has no arm printing and has no leg printing. Princess Leia has the wrong Torso print. The 16 x 16 Rounded Corner Bricks that make up part of the landing platform have the wrong number of studs, which in turn cause four of the 1 x 1 Round Plates to "Float" on the landing platform.
  11. Walter Kovacs
    Apparently Rick posted while I was busy typing. And what I read makes me a little more reluctant to vote for him at this time. I agree, Rick. Redblade IS someone that I can agree with. Vote: Li'l Redblade (Capt. RedBlade) You might ask why I chose to wait on a vote for Rick, but jump on Redblade? I've made no secret that I think Redblade is scum. I did try to block him last night.
  12. Walter Kovacs
    There is plenty of time left before voting closes, and I think one vote is enough for now. I'll let Rick start talking before voting.
  13. Walter Kovacs
    This is the final PM, the one between Dave, Hinckley and I. Be sure to read carefully! Mr. Def has promised a pop quiz in the morning. I assumed that meant Pally was the Vig. Wives, children, work. All of it causes Li'l Walter to be sleepy. I know what you're going to say, "It's mafia, sleep comes second." To that I say BAH! Walter loves his sleep. And his wife and kids. Here, sanitized PMs: Now if you're screwing me over REDACTED. I will furiously multiple times over, but frankly I haven't really trusted anyone since CM and Foog died, so I think you're my best bet. CK also questioned me later on: He seems to infer that he is not on the town's side, as I see it. If you're town, good luck. If not, die tonight! I responded that it would help to track him even if we killed him as if he is the Scum Recruiter, his Action would still go through and we'd need to see who he targeted. I think it's now past the deadline. I don't know what the Vigilante chose to do. Sorry, Dave. No go. We'll figure him out today. I am referring to a PM between Cecilie, Hinckley and I. I won't post that one unless you REALLY need it.
  14. Walter Kovacs
    This PM is between myself and Hinckley only. Somewhere in the middle a third PM started, between Dave, Hinckley and myself. Have fun reading! Editorial: This is when the third PM, between Dave, Hinckley and I, started. That will follow soon. Everything else is in the third PM.
  15. Walter Kovacs
    A little light reading for you all. This first PM is between myself and Dave. He had expressed some doubts about my allegience, so I contacted him. Now this meant "you cannot be the vig since you targeted Palathadric yesterday and he is still alive" Let's chalk this up as a misunderstanding. I would like to work with you, but seeing you know mine, I should know yours (role) I am not willing to blindly trust you, sorry. Editorial: This is where things got confused. And the reason why I ended up claiming to Hinckley and outing Cecilie to him, though he had already had a good idea about it. Now this meant "you cannot be the vig since you targeted Palathadric yesterday and he is still alive" Let's chalk this up as a misunderstanding. I would like to work with you, but seeing you know mine, I should know yours (role) I am not willing to blindly trust you, sorry. Voila! Hinckley found out Cecilie was the Vig on Day 3, she was killed Night 3. Did Cecilie let Hinck know Corny was the protector? I know they were talking together before the three of us started our conversation. Corny was killed on Night 2. I've received a message that I've been blocked on Nights 2 & 4, and Day 2 was when I claimed to Hinck. Then there was this gem. Thanks to the {discussion that shall not be said in thread}, everyone and their brother assumed that Zepher was Vanilla town. So Why would Hinck try and direct me onto him, when even if he was converted, he would LOSE a night action, and never gain one? Zepher is the last person anyone would need to block. Though he could easily be scum. It's certainly not conclusive, but it's a fair sight better than anything else we've had this game. Unfortunately, the Zepher post sort of looks obvious, like he wants me to use it as evidence so that the scum teams can unite and end the game. And I don't know if I've got enough to force the issue without it. Editorial: I had to sanitize the above post or face penalty votes. I can't afford that right now. I think everyone knows what was left out. More to follow.
  16. Walter Kovacs
    My first two targets were my choice. Corny was acting very... defiant on Day 1. Almost cocky, like he knew he wouldn't be killed. My thought process was that he knew he wouldn't be killed because he WAS scum. I was wrong, but it seemed like the best lead on Day 1. It wasn't till after the fact that I thought of alternative theories (he could have been a Grenade, and was hoping to trade one Townie for a Scum killer, or he was hoping to attract the Watcher, for example). I targetted Pally for the same reason everyone jumped on his bandwagon on Day 3. He was acting very scummy. Hindsight is 20/20, but after Days 1 & 2, pretty much everyone thought Pally was scum. Dave was among those. As was I. I didn't start talking to Hinck until late Day 2. I was talking to Cecilie on Day 1. If you want proof (that goes for anyone who is interested), I can add you to the conversations. Everyone in them, except me, is dead now.

    In a nutshell, I am the Town Blocker. Night 1 I blocked Cornelius Murdock Night 2 I attempted to blck Palathadric, but was instead blocked myself Night 3 I blocked Peanuts Night 4 I attempted to block KielDaMan, but was instead blocked myself Night 5 I blocked The Boy Wonder Night 6 I attempted to block Capt. Redblade, but was instead blocked myself Before the game began , I asked Mr. Def if I would receive any feedback from a successful block. He told me that I would only receive feedback if I was blocked (which has happened on every even numbered night), and if I wasn't, to assume that the block was successful, whether the target was scum, town PR or Vanilla Town. The entire case against me comes down to the fact I wasn't able to be recruited by the Masons, though I am not sure which night it was. I see it as proof that the Scum have a Recruitment Blocker, but everyone else apparently thinks that is too convenient an explanation. Apparently I also wasn't able to be Tracked one night (again, no idea which night), but if it was an even numbered night, I was blocked, so I would have been seen as a Vanilla. No one seems to be suggesting that possibility, either. Everyone also seems to find it suspicious that I talked with Hinckley, a known Scum. Yet I don't recall anyone pointing fingers at him until Day 5. Is it a crime to get duped by a scum? Especially one as persuasive as Hinck? Apparently it is, in this town. As for who I'd lynch? I think it's obvious I'd like to see Redblade put under scrutiny. I tried to block him for a reason. I think he has a scummy stench that I'll be able to smell in the afterlife. Grr... blck = block

    Just because it isn't currently available doesn't mean it will never be available. I know I've bought one off of BL before. In my experience, BL a set is usually more expensive than buying a complete one. Stay patient, and you are bound to find a good deal on a complete set.
  19. Walter Kovacs
    This is the first time I've heard that I was not trackable. Care to give me some details? Like what night? As for being unrecruitable, the only explanation that makes sense is that the Scum's Recruitment Blocker blocked me. I do believe I have mentioned that. Several times. Rick's likely in the same boat. Rick, you were blocked on an odd night(s), correct? I've been blocked on all three even nights. I know I cannot target the same person twice, perhaps the scum have the same limitation? I think it's about time we took stock of where we are at. Endgame is a mason, and clearly town. Rick was trusted by Dave, another mason, and so I think we can safely call him town. KDM was trusted by Dave, though Dave also trusted Hinckley to a degree during the game. I'll assume he's town. I know I'm town, though no one believes me. So who does that leave? Redblade, who has said very little, and even less of substance, all game long. Peanuts,, who has said even less than Redblade. Zepher, who started out town, but everyone and their mother agreed was recruitment target #1. Nightshroud, who I am least certain is scum. I won't fight a bandwagon against me. I've said everything I could, and it still seems that no one believes me. It's your funeral. Oh, and for the record, Dave was not certain of my scumminess. Not by a longshot:
  20. Walter Kovacs
    Thanks for the update, C3POwen.
  21. Walter Kovacs
    I used to have my Brickshelf link in my sig, I guess I need to get it back in there. Brickshelf TIE Models on Brickshelf, since I've got a lot of other crap there as well.
  22. Walter Kovacs
    Gah, apparently I still cannot read. Yes, two killers, one original scum recruiter, and whomever the scum have managed to convert along the way. I misremembered Nightshroud's post. We are on the same page, except a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. TBW is almost certainly scum, and I am certain of my innocence, which by default makes me not one of the killers. We can worry about lynching a killing scum tomorrow. Lets just make sure we get A scum today. Also I'd like to prove my innocence by blocking the killer tonight. Dave, I'm putting my target in your hands, as I put the choice into Pie's hands last night. Converse with the rest of your team, and anyone else you trust, and give me someone to block.
  23. Walter Kovacs
    Well said, Clanure. I couldn't agree with you more. I have some additional observations as well. I've been away from EB for the better part of two years, for personal reasons. Before my self-imposed exile, I was on a quest to build an UCS version of every TIE variant I could find a source photo for. I posted every model that I built, and with few exceptions, I only garnered 3 or 4 comments per model. And nothing ever seemed constructive. I might get a "this section doesn't look right" comment, but nothing in the way of "and here's how to make it better", which is what I really needed to advance in my art. If I knew how to improve it, It wouldn't look the way it does now. Also, I am a very fervent MLCad MOCer. Every MOC I do starts in MLCad, and then gets translated into real bricks as I am able to afford buying them. But whenever I post a rendered MOC, the only comment I seem to get is "When are you going to build it in real bricks." (This attitude has changed in the last few years, as LDD has made digital bricking much more accessible.) Another thing is that MOCing takes time, and sometimes other interests creep into our lives. I got involved in the Mafia games here at EB, and fell in love with them. Right now I am designing MOCs in MLCad for my own mafia game, and that takes a lot of hard work and time, and must be done in secrecy to avoid giving anything away in the game. And this takes away from time I could devote to MOCing SW type things.
  24. Walter Kovacs
    I stand, err, sit corrected. That clears a few things up. So we are looking for two more on the recruiting team, one more killer, and any successful conversions, who can also recruit. It seems finding the remaining killer is top priority, unlike what Nightshroud's been pushing for. Mr Def's post says nothing about the killing action being passed on. Of course, the game wasn't finalized at that point either. Things still might have changed.
  25. Walter Kovacs
    I don't recall Mr Def ever saying there would be 2 converters and 3 killers. I DO remember him saying he would reduce the scum numbers by 1 due to a lower number of players. Perhaps you know because you are in the know, no? Vote: Li'l Boy Wonder (TheBoyWonder)
