Acolytes game 2: A new dawn? (Day 1)

[Aluse Cannon]

So if Ben is to be believed, we know who a few members of the village are.

Let's not get too caught up in questing that we forget about the actual goal here.


Who are the murderers?

 

[shortkut]

Yeah, anyone who uses Trump gifs deserves death, IMHO.

I quested myself to death last game. Let me do it again. It’s not like I have anyone running a DnD game, so let me have this

I don’t know what other roles do

 

[Ants!]

dimmerwit has returned to the town injured.

 

[Jon]

dimmerwit has returned to the town injured.

There's always one in the group...

 

[shortkut]

I’m officially voting @Tommy Boy for refusing to quest. @Ants! Worked hard in this game and you’re treating it like garbage!

 

[dimmerwit]

I'd suggest perhaps not going to the Cursed Ruins.

 

[shortkut]

Are they cursed?

 

[dimmerwit]

As it turns out yes, yes they are.

 

[Tommy Boy]

My strategy worked out just fine last time, though at least now I can use it for good and make sure the town gets a vote every day. I will (possibly literally) die on this hill!!!

Last time you were an acolyte. This time those who question can still vote

 

[Ants!]

This time you don't automatically lose your vote for questing, although it is one of the possible consequences of failing a quest.

You can quest and vote this time.

Suck it Thomas Man

 

[Zell 17]

I have a shitload of stuff to read but in the meantime quest me at labyrinth

 

[Tommy Boy]

My perfect strategy, ruined!

 

[dimmerwit]

Fun thing is I selected Cursed Ruins not even thinking about advantages because I was reading the other thread about vaginas.

And now I have an STD.

Serves me right.

 

[Ben]

As it turns out yes, yes they are.

Only pansies are scared of curses.

 

[shortkut]

[canadaguy]

Not enough baseless accusations going on

 

[shortkut]

Not enough baseless accusations going on

I accused Tommy of sucking the fun and uniqueness out of this game

 

[Ben]

And now I have an STD.

Serves me right.

If it makes you feel any better, I too am cursed.

 

[dimmerwit]

 

[shortkut]

I’m not cursed yet. It’s possible I become cursed by the end of the day

 

[Jon]

If it makes you feel any better, I too am cursed.

You have an STD... that's different.

Shortkut Trauma Disorder

Wolves suffer from “shortkut tastes delicious”

Next time don’t advertise your fancy rewards in front of an outlaw

 

[Aluse Cannon]

@Christina what are you up to? Good things?

 

[Ben]

Gimme a prescription of some ADHD drug and maybe I would!

 

[Christina]

@Christina what are you up to? Good things?

Stuff and things. Trying to decide if I should quest, but I need to go read the rules about it first least I get myself killed and no longer be able to do stuff and things.

 

[shortkut]

Gimme a prescription of some ADHD drug and maybe I would!

ADHD is an off-label use for cowbell

 

[Local Hero]

I am alive, but still not feeling great.

@Ants! Let's go questing to the haunted dungeons

 

[shortkut]

I’ve come to the conclusion that questing is only dangerous for acolytes and solos. Due to the fact that it is possible to die on a quest, and they have such limited numbers to begin with, anyone not questing should be considered suspect

 

[Fool's Requiem]

That sounds like something an Acolyte or Solo would say to trick players with strong roles into a poor position.

Greetings village members of [Insert Villiage Name Here]. I am Bramel the Brave. I have come to your village to vanquish evil, protect the innocent, and provide opinions that everyone will disagree with.

Before acting, I require information. Information can be the difference between an unjustly killed village member and a vanquished Acolyte.

Also, if would feel kinda scummy if I killed someone "at random" shortly after them disagreeing with a hot take of mine...

 

[Fool's Requiem]

Meanwhile, voting kut.

I will not be questing in this round. My quest is vanquishing evil.

I plan on questing every day like last game

 

[shortkut]

With the exception of Ben, notice how the two people voting me are the two people who won’t quest.

Solo Killer dies on a quest? Game over for them and their team of 1

Acolytes go questing and die? Suddenly a lot easier for the town because there are only 4 acolytes.

Yes, it could theoretically benefit those groups if townies die, but it is much more costly for them to risk needless death than it is for the town

 

[Christina]

Ok went and read the quest tutorial. Seems safe enough since I am currently not injured so my chance of death is low.

@Ants! I shall quest in the Lost Temple. That I shall hitherto refer to as the Forgotten Temple as Zelda intended.

 

[Ants!]

Quagmire has returned to the town without an injury.

Who are the murderers?

I know bens read at me is right but ifs evil it's easy to fake, so who knows

 

[Ben]

I know bens read at me is right but ifs evil it's easy to fake, so who knows

From skimming, I don't think any of the evil roles have the ability to learn someone's exact role, so I could prove that I'm good by revealing what you are specifically. But again, I don't wanna do that.
