I know you've been saying that might be you in that section, so I could see where you might suspect that he was bus driven that night. It didn't seem conclusive either way, so that would be why I hadn't put that together.

Hopefully someone can shed some light on that.
IF they don't, then it's a scum busdriver (which I suspect to be honest, considering targets), providing of course your telling the complete truth.

Lots of ways this could go, but almost every single way means a revelation of some kind. Some good to know, some maybe best kept under wraps. Depends on who was bussed... Your target, you, and who with. However, with all the revelations this phase, it's almost sure to reveal true scum (providing your not that True scum of course).

I don't know the series either, but if it's using fantasy creatures like Kobolds... Well, I know something about fantasy creatures. Kobolds are genuinely small, like big dog sized. Not really the scary creature that we have been seeing in the write-ups. IF that's not how they are represented in Nekodius, then I guess it would depend on how they are represented.

Bassically, Kobolds are the bottum of the barrel of the humanoids. They ussually only attack in groups, when the odds of success favor them, and running if the enemy puts up a good fight. Cowardly is a good way to explain them.

Perhaps the one in this game has been taking some steroids. Lots of steroids.

Nah, I targeted Derek Night 3 which is probably why I'm not where I thought I'd be; in light of his ability.

I did indeed target T night 2, and going back to the first game, my character is cowardly, which fits the person that was talking to T.

Interesting. It's a good answer, we're just asking the wrong question.

SO...let's ask another question: Mich or Mach....who of you targetted Astil N1?

Instead of going on a yes or no on N2 or N3...see if any of these two can shed some light on the subject.

Seriously though... I know our PMs say humanity and I know the game title says everything... but I did NOT know anything about what you just mentioned. The idea that there may essentially be a nuke out there that could do that kind of damage is worrying, though is an interesting mechanic to have if that's accurate. Don't think I've seen a game where the mod could kill everyone with a mechanic before.
It's not a nuke. It just holds alot of power that can't be in the wrong hands. In the wrong hands everything can be eliminated... It's what keeps everything alive.

The wrong hands is not made specific to me, meaning I don't know that all Humanity aligned individuals would use it wisely. I do think I will know if it falls into the wrong hands, so I'm happy with the holder right now, no matter their alignment.

The win condition isn't just an alignment thing. It's real...

Other win conditions, I can't imagine saying "When Humanity falls!" because they are a part of humanity as well... It's going to be the standard... When your numbers outnumber the town, etc. IF there is a group that wants to destroy everything, we could be screwed by letting them know where to look.... Which is why I was weary of SB's question of whom all was where.

People that are not where everyone else is, could be people that are protecting this power, which is something that needs to be done, for humanities sake.

The person that was talking to "T" was talking in Orange, if that was "T".

Seems that might be what this exchange is about.

It needs to be done this way." He sat far more calmly than his friend, watching the pacing in amusement.
Could be an indication that they're looking for a particular something.

In Suikoden the kobolds are a race in their own right, humanoid and capable of doing good things. The picture I linked to was a few of the friendly ones that sign up with the good guys though there are minion level ones you fight in the wild still. Basically, in Suikoden they're on the level of humans though humans are still the main power in the games.

Could be the dog/beast is one on steroids which might make sense with the way it's portrayed in the write ups, but I'm more inclined it's like the second of the two I linked to... which is Shiro from Suikoden 2, a large wolf type beast that is friendly in the game and can be used without it's handler. Could be that something like that is either wild here OR is being instructed by someone else on what to do.

Agreed... I'm starting to think that whatever it is that we're supposed to be scared of is like the True Runes in Suikoden, each of which has massive power and forms much of the plot there. Don't want to be dealing with something like the Soul Eater, that would be bad. And all of this is making me understand why you were worried about SmartBomb's questions.

Starting to get a bit tipsy already, definitely gonna be good when I hit the pool table tonight. Is important to be a couple of beers in, helps get the eye and the arm in sync.

Yes, but mostly I want to know if we have a town busdriver and what they have done, if we have a busdriver at all.

Otherwise, we are going to have to lynch Gonvick, and hope for the best in that result. I don't see people jumping on my bandwagon for Derek right now.... dang it.

/shrug, I don't know. Are their steroids around?

Gnolls are kind of like Kobolds as well, but ussually bigger, etc. Don't know if they are around in Nekodius though.
