Man. I had four strips of bacon yesterday. Was one automatically undercooked, one automatically overcooked? No, let's put a stop to that right here, all four strips were excellent.

All players have confirmed. 

D1 will begin in 24 hours (maybe longer because of work, but not before then)

Day 1 Start

"1, 2, 3, 4,....., 12.  Good, good.  Everyone is here.  Let me welcome you to this planning session." I began.  "Since you are all here, we can now start planning the best Holiday Party that f.ds has ever seen!  Teproc and I gathered you all together because you each have a unique perspective on what this party should look like.  However, due to budgetary constraints (I don't get paid enough) we won't quite be able to do EVERYTHING that EVERYONE wants.  So let's begin by...."

Suddenly Teproc burst in from the back of the room.  "Look what I found!  A transmogrifier box with a note attached!"

Everyone got quiet as the note was read.

"Bah Humbug!  Holiday Parties ruin the season.  So we will ruin yours"

"This is rather unfortunate."  I said once I saw the note.  "Luckily I have a de-transmogrifier box that will transform any transmogrified person back to their original state.  There is one bug that I haven't quite had the time to get ragingduckd to salvage though.  If you aren't transmogrified already, you will be forever changed into a goko bot.  Just a minor bug, and you will be able to still play Dominion the rest of your life, but you won't be able to help plan our Holiday Party.  But unless we find these rapscallions who are trying to thwart our party, we won't be able to have our party anyway!"


The First Day of Planning for the f.ds Holiday Party has Begun!

With 12 alive it takes 7 to lynch. Day 1 will last 10 days. The deadline for Day 1 will be Saturday, December 27 at 6:30 pm forum time.

I will allow for a 2-day extension due to the Holiday season.  To get this extension, 7 of you must send me a PM requesting the extension.  DO NOT POST in the main thread about this.  I will confirm the official deadline Sunday, December 21 (or before if I get enough requests), so if you want an extension PM me before then.

Okay, just finished a full re-read, and mostly witherweaver and Joseph2302 come off as scummy, with ashersky as towniest.

Everyone else is null to scummy, mostly based on lurking.

I think deadline's in 45 minutes, so we really need to get moving.

I was also curious, how did you see this? Or did you randomly create this type of salad that Google doesn't acknowledge the existence of? All in all, seems pretty scummy to me, and you were scummy last time, so Vote:ADK.

Easy way to check the scum slips.

chairs and Joseph, claim your holiday info.  If it's verified, you're safe.

Vote: asher

Protecting your scum partners?  Awful jumpy.

If you think "fishing" for "information" is scummy in this instance, you have NOT read the setup.  PM flavor will have zilch to do with roles and alignment.

What PM flavor may tell us all, though, is if town and scum got different styles of PM.

I got someone else's holiday information in my PM.  ADK mentioned the same.  I know I'm town, I assume ADK's is town.

Now, when two people immediately jump on something that should absolutely, 100% be known to a town player as the norm, it screams something important.

So, if scum got PMs that didn't include someone else's random holiday information, we can catch them through that lack of information.  The fact that they've yet to post since being called out about this signals that they are frantically PMing the mod for information to use to cover themselves.

What may be unlucky for them is, if the random flavor distribution was done after alignment distribution for example, no town player will be able to confirm their claims.  If all holiday information was randomized and just the scum players were left out, they'll have to wait for the Mod to provide that information.

So, the longer it takes for them to respond, to more likely it is to me that they've been caught in a scumslip situation.

This is very familiar to the Major Arcana II VT claim issue, I think, and it's the best thing we've got going for us.

We have very little activity, we have very little posting from anyone, and we have an unbreakable setup.  The scumslip looks promising, and it's worth pursuing until it's otherwise proven false or we lynch one of them.

Since I have no information, I will not vote and potentially condemn an innocent man/woman.

Umm wait I'm bad at reading sarcasm so theres a chance yours is sarcasm also. Mine was sarcasm but i guess its easy to misinterpret it as i didn't display it very well.
