Well, Miss Bennet, technically speaking, would be MLE as Jane. You would be Miss Kitty Bennet and I would be Miss Mary Bennet.
Depending on how canonical the colour is - we have 3 out of 5 Bennet sisters here plus Charlotte Collins. We are the goodish sisters. We're missing Lydia, the naughty one, and Elizabeth, the heroine. Could that be significant? I don't want to post this on the main board at the moment, but a gender claim at least could be significant and a full character claim could be great. OK, probably not, but might help on Day one where we might not have much to go on. If someone came out as Wickham or Aunt Norris, it might nudge me to probing.

I changed my mind, character claim is a bad idea at present, but could be a great idea after the first death/zombification.

Charlotte checking in. I agree that a name claim is premature, as the colour is pretty specific and would act as a red flag to anyone on scum with knowledge of Austen.
I do believe our missing ladies are relevant.

I would tend to agree.
4 masons in a 19 person game is a little unusual - so i would assume 4 scum, 1 pfk, 1 3rd party
I also wondering if we should maybe play a little unusual as well - since the Bennet's are mentioned in the opening colour, one of us could declare "I am one of the Bennet sisters, and I am a Mason"
Pro's - it gets folks talking and establishes the townness of the bennet's right out in the open; and it will be interesting to see folks reaction to a mason claim on day 1
Con's - the other bennet's could be scum - unlikely tho May not see Day 2 - but if the scum do kill the claimant, it proves that there are masons, and they are the bennets
I'm good with making that claim myself - if we think it has merit -- thoughts?

I don't like it at this stage at all. I reckon we are 2 Bennets missing for a reason. Lydia is probably scum, possibly the one who lets the zombie loose, and Elizabeth is likely to have a bigger power role. I really don't think it will be all that hard to work out roles from names so we should keep schtum for now.

I see it both ways. There are benefits to claiming mason/Bennet soon, and benefits to waiting. I agree that the missing Bennets are probably scum/power if Ulla is going by canon.
Bill, the biggest problem I see with claiming mason/Bennet on Day 1 is that if there is a janitor-type role, scum may nightkill whichever of us claims but town may not get the benefit of role or alignment. Not that I necessarily think that there is a janitor, but as I said in the previous thread 4 masons in a 20 player game to me says that scum have a lot of power.

I think we have a lot to lose and very little to gain by claiming Bennet on day one. Let's get a death and/or an investigation so that we have something to go on.

So we have
Zuma random.org vote's Duvsie -- and I HATE RANDOM.ORG VOTES. Duvsie's response is very Duvsie - it is a null tell in my opinion Red's response and vote on Duvsie seems very opportunistic LockedITToaC vote on Red is also someone opportunistic, but I do agree with him Zeener's comment and smudge on Locked for placing the vote is also suspect.
So we essentially have Red and Zeener saying it is scummy not to find Duvsie's reaction to Zuma scummy.

I think anyone who hasn't played with Duvsie might find her reaction to Zuma scummy. I read the F11 game, but maybe not everybody did. So I don't know that you could read too much into Duvsie's reaction, or the reactions to her reaction, or the reaction to the reactions to her reaction.

Not sure on Duvsie. I still suspect Uthy, he was too quick to jump on the zeener bandwagon and too quick to jump off it again when lucifer changed his mind. He also seemed a bit overkeen to have a gender claim when we had hardly started. Also does anyone think Auburn is smudging Bill here? www.giraffeboards.com/showthread.php?p=438056#post438056

A bit off topic, but I read a mafia game once where doing some breadcrumbing for the masons ended up being very helpful to town later in the game. I think it was Kat who did the breadcrumbing. Anyone think it might be a good idea to set something up like that ahead of time? A post where each sentence starts (or ends) with the letters of our names (Bill, mle, rom, ben) or something similar could help with a mason claim later on.

Yeah, she put the letters of the other masons usernames as the first letters in a paragraph of sentences about something totally unrelated that the other masons knew about and were able to reference later. I'm sure there are other ways to breadcrumb; it was just something I'd thought of. I think only one of us would have to do it. That way if/when one of us is killed or comes under fire or whatever, it can be pointed out later.

Oh, except to say please read uthrecht's answers to my questions about his earlier zeener vote. Do any of those make any sense at all if he was town? Plus, he hasn't answered at all what i was asking. I have other reasons for thinking he's scum but will post properly here tomorrow before doing anything on main board.

I really shouldn't play on a blackberry - but Zuma really over-reacted to the vote. And breadcrumb
Basically, no.
Reading grey on white timestamps on a blackberry is tricky at the best of times; I went back through your previous posts...one...till I reached the pre-game thread; so that is where I drew my conclusion of one post since the sign up thread.
But I'll freely admit I oopsed looking through your previous posts.
My vote stands based on your over-reaction response.

Can we still talk in here if we get killed? [/b][/quote] No, sorry. If you die you can be spoiled and join in the fun with other dead ones. Since you're all masons, no one from this thread can be subbed into the game once more (as I might with unspoiled vanilla town). But you'd still be allowed to read in here. Just like you'd still be allowed to follow the rest of the game in the game-thread.

The next few hours will be my last chance to vote toDay, as i will be in bed and then up early for work. I would really appreciate some input from fellow masons. Are we all happy with Red being lynched toDay? To my mind, the same arguments, and more, could be levelled against Uthrecht for the reasons I mentioned up thread. I did intend putting together a proper indictment of uthy but don't really see the point, as i am unlikely to be able to get enough support to get him lynched anyway, and I think there's a good chance that Red is scummy anyway. Posting all my reasons would just get me night killed if uthy really is non-town. Any other thoughts anyone? Anything we've missed? Your experienced guidance would be appreciated.

Voted Red. Hoping that nobody posts here now making a brilliant case against someone else, but it would look too odd if I changed it without a convincing reason, so it's going to have to stand.

Am not necessarily convinced about Red's claimed role, as i did expect Elizabeth to be town cop or doc. But I had to withdraw my vote.
