For those topics one could describe as the forum equivalent of a twinkie. Word games, forum contests and giveaways are all the rage here.

I want white and purple!

*cracks up* I got all confused and read the information wrong, and thought that day should have ended already. I was like "It's the 7th, and it's hit 5pm over there... what's going on!?"

Then I realised that due to timezones, it's still the 6th in America (at least, in Scott's timezone).

Yes, I'm stupid ^_^

First Day Executions

A great debate always seems to occur on the first day revolving around executions. The two sides of the arguement tend to be :

* Don't execute anybody today : Wait for dreamers to dream of somebody, we could hit a powerful innocent, it's not fair to kill somebody on day one, we have no suspects
* Execute somebody today : Dreamers may not hit anybody, if we don't kill somebody we'll be in the same position tomorrow, we can't give the baddies a free kill, we could hit a baddy

No matter where you stand on the issue you must always respect other people's opinions. Just because you think there should be an execution doesn't mean everybody else has to.

Whilst it can be good to wait for dreamers to find a baddy, the odds are they won't. Even if they do they need to find somebody that isn't a baddy that they can relay their messages through. This requires another dream.

The odds of hitting an innocent if you randomly selected a player from a group of 25 people is about 70% (In games it tends to be that 25% - 33% of the players are evil), however, with an execution it means the dreamers have one less person to have to check to be evil and the next day there is one less person to have to find suspects among.

Trust me, in a game starting with Night I was killed first. It sucked but I got over it, giving the excuse that it's not fair to be killed so early is just avoiding a reasonable answer.

Whilst it can be good to try and make it so the baddies aren't getting a free kill (There is a 30% chance of hitting one remember) it's also good to acknowledge that you are assisting the baddies by killing somebody if you kill an innocent. They have one less person to have to kill in order to win the game.

If you don't take a risk and execute somebody you don't know is innocent or evil there is no way you are going to win the game (Unless you are on a baddy team). Your dreamers are not going to find every baddy and they are not always going to survive for very long. Take a gamble and execute somebody or be sitting ducks. Whilst you don't have to execute everyday, you must execute somebody sometime or you're going to lose.


Just something over from Randomness =)

Recolouring? Nah, I'm not that stupid :P Using the powerful graphics-editing software known as Fireworks, I have simply added a semi-transparent layer of colour over the chicken head.

Not to say that the chickens aren't of top notch value of course.

And today only, buy one GREEN chicken, get one free! Yes FREE!
Simply copy and paste this orderform:
No. of GREEN chickens:
Free Chicken colour:

No I did not steal WIS's Idea... I swear :P

For CD: Image
For Alex: Image Image
Enjoy your Chickens :P


Now that that... business is out of the way, I have to comment about Kalathalan's post. Whilst I agree that assumptions must be made to win this game, it's usually easier to identify odd behaviour after a day or two. I mean, right now, everyone here seems innocent. I know some here aren't, but we need to wait for a slip-up or a mistake on their part before we can really tell if they're evil or not.

I don't think the chances of hitting an baddie are big enough for it to be worth it.

Vote: No execution

Revealing time!!!

Yes, WIS, there are other-people-posting requirements. I'm willing to bet you're Blue and TS's Green. (Ha! No CAPS, no tally!) :P

Edit: Scott, I unvoted.

You're 50% wrong! The other 50%, you have 50% of being right on that 50%. :P


And by saying that, you practically revealed to us your role 50%.
