Average Speed XV: Independence Day GAME THREAD

<font color="#bc8785">Good evening on this July 1, 3004, and welcome to Channel Root 2's ongoing Election Coverage.</font>

http://www.hakubi.us/ww/asxv/linda-disaster.png

<font color="#bc8785">I'm Linda, and here's tonight's Top Story. Earth President Richard Nix... wait... this just in. Disaster struck tonight when President Nixon arrived home to New New York to deliver the first pitch in tonight's interleague blurnsball game between the New New York Mets and the Lunar Lions. Mets manager Bobby Valentine's Head cursed at a fan who had been taunting him the whole game, and that fan happened to be one of the Old Timers, the race that conquered Earth 200 years ago. He immediately vowed revenge, and now Old Timer ships hover above major Earth cities.</font>

<font color="#31b918">MORBO IS PLEASED WITH THIS TURN OF EVENTS. MORBO IS ONE OF THE OLD TIMERS, AND HE WILL WATCH WITH GLEE AS OLD TIMERS REPLACE MEMBERS OF THE EARTHICAN SECURITY COUNCIL, AND TURN THE BODY INTO A LYNCH MOB, TURNING PUNY HUMAN AGAINST PUNY HUMAN, WHILE AT NIGHT WE DEVOUR THE PUNY HUMANS ONE BY ONE, UNTIL OLD TIMERS CAN TAKE OVER AND SURRENDER THE EARTH!</font>

http://www.hakubi.us/ww/asxv/linda.png

<font color="#bc8785">Ha ha ha ha ha! Now let's look at who the members of the Earthican Security Council are, who now meet tomorrow in New New York to vote on who to, er, lynch.</font>

<font color="#31b918">FIVE OF THESE COUNCIL MEMBERS ARE OLD TIMERS! FEAR US PUNY HUMANS!</font>

<font color="#bc8785">Ha ha ha ha ha! Two of the members are seers, who can determine every night (including night zero and excluding nights 1, 5, and 9) whether a council member is a seer, a puny human, or an Old Timer. The rest are ordinary humans.</font>

IT IS NIGHT

Re: Average Speed XV: Independence Day GAME THREAD
 

All PMs should be out. If you did not receive a PM, please PM me.

Majority lynch will be in effect all game long. However, to keep the game from dragging on too long, there will be cutoffs. Days one and two will open at 8am Pacific Time and lynch on plurality at 6pm Pacific Time if no majority is reached sooner.

Days three and on will have no set start or end time, however if a day threatens to drag on, I reserve the right to set a cutoff plurality lynch time for that day. I will try to ensure all players have an opportunity to see that a cutoff has been set.

The Old Timers may chat out of thread at any time, day or night.

As we have the same number of players as in ASXIV (aka AS-something) the seers get the same combined number of peeks as in that game. However instead of a full seer and a half seer, this game has two three-quarter seers.

IT IS NIGHT

<font color="#31b918">MORBO WELCOMES EARTH PRESIDENT NIXON TO NEW NEW MORNING IN NEW NEW YORK! I ASK YOU MISTER PRESIDENT, HOW DO YOU INTEND TO SUBMIT YOUR SURRENDER TO MORBO'S PEOPLE?</font>

<font color="#b87516">Morbo, frankly, your people don't scare me. As soon as that pesky Security Council lynches you intruders, I can get them to approve my secret plan to end this standoff. Hint: It involves Zapp Brannigan.</font>

<font color="#31b918">MORBO LAUGHS AT THE IDEA THAT EARTH'S FATE RESTS IN THE HANDS OF THE SECURITY COUNCIL, WHICH MEETS IN 90 MINUTES. NOW FOR THE WEATHER.</font>

Still waiting on read receipts. Any seers who have not read and replied in time will have peeks randomized for them.

IT IS NIGHT

<font color="#b87516">I, Richard M. Nixon's Head, do declare this meeting of the Earthican Security Council opened!</font>

DAY

Re: Average Speed XV: Independence Day GAME THREAD
 

Lynch Dustin

Prove me wrong......

Re: Average Speed XV: Independence Day GAME THREAD
 

yeah

I'm an obvious village this game

and I should note that I've never said I was an obvious villager, in a long game, at night, on the road, when leading after 5 inning, and not been a village- so take that for what its worth.

FCBL is likely a wolf just through process of elimination

I just did I think

Re: Average Speed XV: Independence Day GAME THREAD
 

Dustin on a serious note if we are actually both villagers we must establish a masonry early to pwn and punish teh wolves. If you are a wolf then I must pwn and punish you day 1 before you kill me tonight.

So really it's win-win for me if we chat some today.

Re: Average Speed XV: Independence Day GAME THREAD
 

I agree Herbie. I'll be around most of the day I think.

Welcome Back Books

Re: Average Speed XV: Independence Day GAME THREAD

Re: Average Speed XV: Independence Day GAME THREAD
 

Good morning, everyone.

Thankfully, I'm a villager again. Unfortunately, I won't have a ton of time today, especially after 3:30 when I go to work. I hope to make a post with some thoughts/reads a little before then.

Hopefully, Herbie and Dustin are both villagers, and also can prove it to one another early, because that would be +++++++EV for us.

Re: Average Speed XV: Independence Day GAME THREAD
 

cook the books

also im the seer. i peeked eskimo. hes village.

Re: Average Speed XV: Independence Day GAME THREAD
 

HAY GUISE

Excited about another Average Speed, awesome writeups thus far Neil.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

1) My rand is still villarigged, so please proceed accordingly
2) I will be spending the day trying to figure out if I can mason with Herbie
3) I hope to give the village at least two wolves this game, so please listen to me
4) Herbie (and anyone else who hand anything to do with it), if you turbolynch me when I'm away from the keyboard again as an obvious villager, I will forever be your enemy

K thx

Seers get no peeks nights 1, 5, and 9, but did get a night 0. That's all the special rules I found.

Re: Average Speed XV: Independence Day GAME THREAD
 

Dustin,

I'm glad you are in this game.

That's all.

Also, Chibana, welcome to POG. Is this your first WW game?

Re: Average Speed XV: Independence Day GAME THREAD
 

Wow, is me lynching Zurvan in every game really that big of a deal?

Re: Average Speed XV: Independence Day GAME THREAD

Re: Average Speed XV: Independence Day GAME THREAD
 

Congrats, Nez. You've made two votes and neither of them are getting on my voting breakdown.

Go for traz or shortline next.

Sure

Re: Average Speed XV: Independence Day GAME THREAD
 

Also I'm setting 4 PM as the earliest possible time that I will actually accuse someone of being a wolf. Until then we can all be friends.

Re: Average Speed XV: Independence Day GAME THREAD
 

If Neil was a player and not the mod I'd probably already be accusing him of being lupine.

I'm glad he's the mod because I can't read him worth crap.

I'm glad he's the mod because he gets mad at me whenever he's a villager.

My d1 reads have bee teh suck lately, so I'll probably be in the same boat... although I'm going to be a bit more careful about who I push, aka, maybe I won't go after you today

I miss when I could read Herbie as a villgaer every game. But we've been through this.

If you could just let me know one way or the other , i'd apprecaite it.

Hi Herbie and Dan

Check this out though. Herbie has a soul read on Dustin and Dustin has a soul read on Neil so I'd just work backwards from Neil to Herbie. heh
