For instance, we vote on who to kill. If someone is accused in the old games, they don't die and their name is cleared. Now, if everyone thinks its them, they die.
Together, the officers can blindly kill more than the assassinator ever could.

Re: Scioly Assassination 63: The Mob Seizes Power
I hate to say this, but I agree with paleonaps. It doesn't seem that we are voting on who to collectivally accuse as much as we are voting for who to kill off. Doesn't seem quite right.starpug wrote:It's not why you don't like it, but it is why you don't like it?paleonaps wrote:That's not why I don't like it.

Honestly guys, it's just a different way of playing. In the real world you don't accuse people of murder without consequences. I personally like the fact that it makes people think about the consequences of an accusation "If this person dies, then what" instead of "I'm going to make this accusation because I'm bored and want this game over with because the assassin annoys me"
May I also point out naps that you are free to attempt to solve clues from beyond the grave?

Re: Scioly Assassination 63: The Mob Seizes Power
1) In the real world murderers don't leave cryptic clues regarding their next victim.
2) So I can post, just not accuse or protect?

Re: Scioly Assassination 63: The Mob Seizes Power
The reason we leave clues in the assassinator games is because we're nice to each other, unlike most murderers who are very hostile.

Re: Scioly Assassination 63: The Mob Seizes Power
This constant bickering is quite entertaining. However, it looks like this kill clue is unsolvable. Hence, here is the replacement.
Oh, starpug is replacing brobo as judge. Carry on.
You have 3 days staring now. If you have sent in a vote to us, then you may not change it. Remember, posting who you are going to accuse on the thread is fine, but it will only count in the overall vote if you send a PM to both starpug and myself.

Re: Scioly Assassination 63: The Mob Seizes Power
From a tineye result:
"It could well look like an exploding star or a galaxy when you look at pictures of it but the Eye of the Sahara is a huge 50 kilometer diameter formation on the Sahara desert. Geologist thought that it was due to a meteor impact but it is now believed to be caused by land uplift forming the dome, and erosion exposing the quartz forming the bed."
