#townspeople log

Sadly Dave Smith refuses to sign up, since he is too busy to play

crowsty says "maybe"

though there are several people who are not on varsity who should be signing up

we have more people!

I forgot to rejoin this when I quit last week

you put it there, lmm

This is going to get repetitive, isn't it?

lmm: I guess I should have in my notes "Known as Jenny"

[23:00 PM] Johnny killed Timmy

lulz. Guess I'm dead

also, you need to adjust the template to use the right stylesheet or something

since the background is not black, and the wrong dagger is used

I heard you were thinking of playing

will we see you on Wednesday at all?

well it's in my room so might be a bit of a problem if I didn't show up

are you around here next year?

I give my big envelope to bogs tomorrow with any luck

I'm off to be an Actuary in London

is Felicity going to be in London also?

so where is your room?

so quite close to you if you;re living in the main bit of college

burrell's, is that on sedgewick?

you go through the Burrell's p'lodge and turn right

on Grange Road, opposite Robinson and along a bit

will we be able to get in?

i remember burrells being a fortress

at that time? should do. There'll be a bell to ring at the bottom of the staircase

BadgerGirl is playing

Should lead to extra amusement in the CL

what was wrong with the IRC description page linked to from teh social wiki that I gave lmm to link to?

I had updated it for Mich 06 in the FAQ

someone probably needs to update it then

the display has gone weird. Can you force the Notes column to be narrowers so it looks pretty?

needs to be wider if anything

oh hang on - I can stretch it across my sillily large resolution

ah yes - I fear you may have made the table wrongly, lmm

as in, there is a column all to the cloak

which would be a good thing

since I would actually go to them, rather than failing to do so

nah, I planned to hang around and wait to be attacked

lmm: I take it we can add more appointments as we get closer to the dates

I mostly just made shit up for the second half of the week.

Not that I expect to be alive nearly that long.

Xanth: are you coming to the S/EoGP tomorrow?

Yes, I hope to attend.

I certainly can't see any reason why I wouldn't be able to at this point, especially if I have a house of people coming with me.

Oh, if by house I mean just adam, come to think of it. Even if Flying_O and bryony do play, they'll be busy tomorrow evening.

I was just wondering if you could bring my buttery card back

I'd actually forgotten about that entirely.

Not that it isn't safe or anything.

Do we pick our village roles or will lmm suggest them?

I think we need to pick them

Roles in the what now?

I said that Thierry was a travelling salesman when I sent in my full appointment schedule, if that matters at all.

I think lmm dispensed with the villagers theme

However, if you request something...

I am trying to explain away my appointments as the actions of the village priest

(I'm not god, so I assume that was an euphemism for something)

will you be using a bot here to make reports + updates?

you could use the assassins one

well, make it amusing and entertaining

it doesnt have to be a fantasy masterpiece :p

people say a lot of things, not that i usually listen or in some cases even hear them ;)

You can stay on #townspeople after death, right? That's just the whole point of having everyone voiced, +m set and people devoiced on death, right?

On another note, you might want to set +m at some point.

Oh, seeing as adam and I have been looking through past mafia games and the like, mostly just to talk about what fun they were or whatever, the topic of illuminati came to mind.

I don't think I've seen any mention of illuminati in the rules, so if they haven't been considered for being in place this game, I'm totally forwarding it now.

As it stirs activity on both sides.

Other stuff came up, but I think it's all minor in comparison and all stuff that adam's already sent in e-mail form.

All three preceding Mafia games had illuminati.

I strongly advocate it, as it involves bugger all extra work on your end, and calls for more and better organised activity on both sides.

it's all mindless fun, no need to overcomplicate matters

It's not exactly rocket surgery.

neither's needlework but most people wouldn't advocate that

It's a staple that does plenty of good and no bad for the game.

well... you say that

I did wonder why we weren't having such, but I presumed that lmm had a good reason

it's all a bit unpredictable as it is

lmm: may I send you a picture of me?

since I won't be coming tonight?

(and I don't want you choosing an awful one :P)

lmm: is it true that we can't be attacked before we get home after the party?

(i.e. can I safely go unarmed?)

what if I stay outdoors for the entire week?

lmm: the index page still links to the background rather than the story

Also, shouldn't Rev be Ricardo or something for the story?

Yes, and sure, why not.

One last voice for illuminati, otherwise things seem cool. The story's barely relevant. The level of 'story' in Mafia I was more than enough.

Mafia II's style of actual story would be way too much faff.

lmm: you might want to fix some of the addresses to actually show which college people are from.

In the instances where they're missing.

Not that I could see from a scan.

If you're looking to wipe out errors from around the site, my background has been posted twice on the story page.

And that whole page could probably do with proper formatting, by which I guess I mostly just mean adding appropriate line breaks.

Also for the to-do list, you might want to shrink Lauren's photo, and tell solitude to get one which actually helps people recognise him

And make Boz's not a .bmp.

also you might want to rename steve and emma's photo, as it implies that steve is on the left and emma on the right

what the fuck is going on with solitude's photo?

I thought that was deliberate

the labelling, or his photo?

both could be... lmm deliberately funny, solitude's photo deliberately useless

well... it made me laugh :)

lmm: you might want to do something about that

Philip: how was Caius hall?

Lauren: it was delicious :d

ooh Chronos is playing?

quite a healthy gamesize

where on earth do you normally see that?

lmm: I have sent you a new list of my appointments with story-like things put in, to replace what is currently on the website

Typical case of the connection dropping without bothering to tell me, so it just looked like everywhere was quiet.

So, anything suspicious happen yet?

who was the mayor again|

I'm an honest townsperson unfortunately :(

no-one was outside my door :o

clearly all these Entropy types are not as 1337 as they claim

also, bloody putting 9am lectures as appointments, meant I had to get up :-(

(totally unconnected to my eevil killing spree, honest)

lmm: Could I have some line breaks in my story, please?

Also, the dates on the news pages don't match the headlines

hello, I'm a townsperson :)

Ah, I'm getting mixed up between when they were updated and when they happened

*sorts out decent size rubber bands from a mixed pack

I also am a townsperson

But everyone's a townsperson, of course

It's just that some people are also Mafia

Well, TheKremlin is mafia

He just attacked me outside of Caius

(I may be a little late for my first appointment

oooh, fun and intrigue

(just thought I'd let you know in case he gets me the next time I leave my room)

now, to leave Caius without death occuring...

surely you want Jake's death to occur? :)

I note that he missed his first appointment to attack me on my way to mine

Philip: You are late >:(

that's because Jake attacked me

Can someone remove my voice and invite me to #corpses please?

Spoilers: I may be dead.

aah, the sweet smell of paranoia in the morning

I *hate* Tennis Court Road and all the hiding places and the way the sun points in just the wrong direction

ah, Tennis Court Road

I used to have a room with a perfect view down it

never did manage to kill you from there though

Were you ever trying?

Can someone remove my voice and invite me to #corpses please?

Spoilers: I may be dead.

so, Jake for mafia then...

well, there is clearly some suspicion attached to you.

...right. Smear campaign has already begun, then.

just 'cause I have a beard... :P

While Philip could have been mafia trying to discredit your good name, the fact that he is now dead makes this less likely, in my view.

just hide from me anyway and I won't complain ;)

of course, he might have been mafia and fouled up an attempt :)

I will say, however, that *damn* were those some paranoia-inducing lectures.

Spotted far too many players to be comfortable.

thankfully I can now sit here and work and not be disturbed for the rest of the day :)

(actually counter-lurked my own driveway this morning :s don't imagine I'll be doing that one again.)

Oh good, people have died before I woke up.

I was hoping this would be the case, so I wouldn't be the first dead myself.

I remember when you used to get up at 6 to go killing

I can't reliably shift my sleep by that much in one night.

If you're trying to stir me into attacking you, calling the house 'Entropy' is a good start.

I was not aware of an issue with this :s

I hear it was initially called this due to two residents, one of whom was Tom.

right. I take it you dislike the decision, then?

I hear that all the current residents apart from you are still calling it that, at least to me.

I was under the impression that some decision had been reached, because it was still being called it.

That would be mostly because when we decided not to call it so Kirsty had a fit, it looked like we were alienating her, Bryony jumped to her defence and told us to drop all of it.

Yes, it's a good, instructive name.

whichever, I was awaiting the possibility of any of xanth, flying_O, adam, felicity or anyone else uber-keen lurking my house this morning.

didn't want to die on day 1 again.

well except you're clearly mafia

(hello fellow villagers)

zomg, fursecution, etc!

Speaking of laziness, where's lmm?

I continue to deny being mafia. This may or may not be appearing more and more futile :s

I suspect I now have the entire game out for me. Buggrit.

Damn you Phil, going and getting yourself killed and giving your story credibility :s

You're either mafia or a townsperson just killing everyone.

so either way we should kill you

but your lectures are stupidly early

Xanth: or Phil is mafia and lying and got really lucky by dying ;)

The townspeople need to kill you either way for their own good, and the mafia will be particularly interested in your death if it's the latter.

also, there was someone very shifty around my room about half an hour ago

if anyone doesn't have an alibi for then

(lol narrowing it down)

anyone know of any other deaths and/or shifty people?

I haven't left the house since getting back from Burrell's last night, but I'm essentially home alone, so it's not the best of claims.

well whoever it was was in the toilet downstairs, and when I came downstairs they shut the door, and then about a minute later left (no toilet flushing noise), went up the stairs, then came down the stairs again

ooh, I bet it was Coli... wow

could've been, actually

perhaps he was after a repeat of last time ;)

when did he sign off?

I see shenanigans have occurred

hello, evil mafia dude

apparently Philip and Flying_O are dead

flying_O and phil have asked ot be devoiced, so... yes

I take it from your not-silence you've not brushed with death yourself?

and Philip reported being attacked by jake this morning

Xanth: I only just woke up

I continue to protest this foul accusation
