We'll get started tomorrow. I left my game in the car after game night, and it is so damn cold out that no one will ever convince me to run to my car for a game, no matter what you try. Brrrrr....

In the meantime, though, I will announce that E's dicebot has picked Persephone ~~to enjoy a free 6 month supply of pomegranates.~~ to be the next Forensic Scientist!

LOL!

This sounds like an excuse I'd use.

How far is that car? You can't even run out in a little bit of cold? I would warm you up when you get back!!

I ran outside today in a t-shirt, sweatpants, and socks to help my dad load up his laptop and table for his DJ gig tonight. lol

If he runs the game again after this, I will happily give you my spot so you get a chance to play. ^^

Not an issue in the least. I am having a lot of fun just watching and also learning from how everyone's playing it!

Madame Professor · « **Reply #160 on:** January 20, 2016, 06:46:23 AM »

You aren't late, Der dear. Guy hasn't handed out all the hidden roles yet. He was just announcing Persephone as the new FS for this round.

Fear not! We will toss you and Red into the frying pan!

ThatRPGuy · « **Reply #161 on:** January 20, 2016, 07:15:10 AM »

When I said we have 12, I was counting you as number 11, Der, you're in!

I don't count as a player, I just had out cards unless I'm the FS.

When I get home from work, I'll deal out cards, and if I have time do roles, otherwise I'll start the game tomorrow for sure.

We will be adding The Witness! The witness starts the game knowing who the Murderer is! However, in the event of a victory by the investigators, the murderer gets one chance to guess and eliminate the witness before they make it to court, flipping the victory for themselves!

Basically a Merlin + Assassin combo. Sweet! That's awesome. I suspect this will make things actually harder for the investigators.

Congrats Verasaille! And a polite hat tip to Assassini as well who also mentioned that possibility. I have to admit that while I wrote above that I found some merit in the Electric Current/Oil Stain argument, I’m not sure I would have ever actually guessed it myself. So I’m glad that someone did. That seemed like a rather tough round – Remiel really didn’t get a lot in the way of clues to point us towards Oil Stain.

Someone noticed! Fate is officially me new favourite.

You know how cold it is around here, that's not an excuse, it's a totally legit reason. *shivers*

Lies, Guy adores you all!

I'm so glad the turnout for this game had been so good. You guys are awesome, and your enthusiasm is infectious.

If only I was having as good luck getting stories started as I am social games...

Yeah, when Madame Professor was explaining what the witness does, she was like, "the Witness knows which two players (but not which is which) the Murderer and Accomplice are, but not the murder weapon or the evidence" I was like "Well, that's dumb. I hate the witness."

Then she said "but if the Investigators solve the crime, the Murderer and Accomplice get to guess who the Witness is. If they're right, the witness is killed and they win," I said "Oh, like Avalon? I changed my mind, that's awesome."

I found the murderer! Mp with the frying pan in the forum!

Guy- Whoops! Hit modify instead of quote! Not used to GM actions being there.

But what was the key evidence?

RedPhoenix · « **Reply #169 on:** January 20, 2016, 01:47:11 PM »

Sauce for the deep fried corpses?

Lol eww.

For some reason, Red, you avatar makes me think of a fancy futuristic VR headset. It makes me want to go dig up some old threads or mafia games....

RedPhoenix · « **Reply #171 on:** January 20, 2016, 02:04:48 PM »

I keep trying to push people to Mafia but nobody wants to play all vanilla versions!

What do you mean by all vanilla? Just mafia and innocents, no special roles?

I was actually planning on pitching a round of werewolves during the Deception break. Depending on what you're looking for, maybe I can help.

Not exactly nobody. A lot of us have shown interest. Just don't have enough people.
