Of course, this is all just BS Day 1 feelings...

Can players other then evil PM each other? that could be useful for the seer to slowly build up a "secret" good alliance.
Hold on hold on hold on...

Punisher, you and I had this exchange a few days ago:
Punisher wrote:I thought that nobody knew who anyone was so how could any team have a coach?
Holman wrote:The evil team has its own private forum where they can communicate behind the scenes. (AS YOU NO DOUBT KNOW!!!)

The rest of us are limited to open talk on the game forum. In fact, private messages WRT to the game are against the rules.
Punisher wrote:Must have missed the private forum thing. I thought nobody knew who any one was.
If evil knows each other, then all kills they make are known good guys so it would seem it is easier for them. In fact, if they just stay quiet, all kills would be random except for theirs so I would think they have a much easier path to victory...
How are you still wondering now whether players can PM each other?

This just crossed the line from looking like genuine newbiness to looking like strategically feigned newbiness.

And believe me, I've walked that line.
Hmm... I remember the part about the private forum, but didn't remember anything about the PM's.. maybe I should be paying more attention.

If we do get someone up there and they claim special I think we should be quick to change our vote to Moliere to test him.

We've been through that before, we call bacon bacon and ham ham, anyway in Quebec we do. Could be a western Canada thing where they call our "canadian bacon" bacon but I'm not convinced since I've had bacon a few times while in Calgary and it was, well, normal bacon.

I could see the 'mostly quiet' scoop being evil scoop. He seems to have kept himself out of this first day's comedic routine - which is a little off.

And, in an effort the get something going here before out deadline (practice what I preach):

Remus, ElG, Holman, and a little bit Grund - are others I would switch to today.

I will say that I've played a ton with Remus, and I've gotten to hear his voice in his posts (kinda) - and he has taken on a ton here that is very much the tone I have come to see from 'evil Remus'. For what that's worth.

OK OK OK I'm interested.

I have no idea what you see suspicious about me, but I would definitely like to know what you find suspicious about El G and Grund.

Other than the fact that Remus, El Guapo, and Grund are experienced players who are normally top early targets for the wolves, of course...

The game started 7 days ago. Do you consider your 3 posts in that time to be "more engaged, and earlier-engaged" than your usual dearth of posts? On the Alex Jones podcast today he said your announcement was a black flag operation meant to mislead us. I guess that makes me a Grundbegriff Truther.

And I still want Unagi to justify his accusations against El G, Grund, and me. (He did offer something on Remus, although that could've been just throwing smoke.)

This reads to me like just trying to get something going on experienced players (El G, Grund, Remus) who make life hard for wolves. I really can't see the basis for it in this game.

(Grund's weird claim is still Grund's weird claim, but it hadn't happened yet when Unagi threw suspicion.)
