  • Hmm, I wasn't think of it as her being malicious, not in my mind anyway, just that her posts exposed problems which embarrassed the council, and ultimately caused the attack on the catering staff by the newspaper, which was actually a good thing bec…
  • Dude, that happened like, over 12 hours ago.
  • Just because she can take pictures again doesn't invalidate anything. The quality of school lunches continues to be a problem, not just in this small town, but in many places around the world. In fact, what this story teaches is that, far from bei…
  • One day old news, the horror. :P I think it's still a thing worth talking about. (Although, I have to admit that part of the reason it caught my eye was because I've been reading the Ender's Shadow series for the past couple weeks, and it sort of…
  • http://m.wired.com/wiredscience/2012/06/neverseconds-shut-down/ Typical that these people would try to stop the bad reports by banning the girl rather than by actually fixing what's wrong.
  • This is true; however, the way I read the story was that this is a significant increase over what is already normally there. Although, the story did say the fish caught in Cali were still far below what are deemed dangerous levels.... Checked anot…
  • Ah, that is helpful. Implies potentially worrying things about the tuna lingering around Japan though.
  • "Most likely, the [tuna] would have eaten some contaminated fish off the coast of Japan and then swam across the Pacific ocean." “That’s a big ocean. To swim across it and still retain these radionuclides is pretty amazing,” lead researcher Nicholas…
  • Some of the comments were interesting on there, This one caught my eye, a link to an old news article about how pollution can ride the jet streams from Asia to the American west coast: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2002943714_asian…
  • Impressive bus driver. http://www.chinasmack.com/2012/stories/us-says-china-can-report-air-quality-of-american-cities-too.html I thought this one was interesting too.
  • I don't think I can justify giving the inventor immunity with severely imbalancing the game. It was just a case of bad luck really; if we replayed the same rule set, it could end up completely different. As it is, I'm wondering if I should have bu…
  • You shouldn't have given up so easy Darby, you probably could have convinced people Tmonsta was lying, esp since he messed up on saying Tyrsis had a night action when he doesn't.
  • Game over, town wins! Bad Guys: Numbnut: Phantom Dumbbutt: Darubian Good Guys: Doctor: dank Detective: Dogtown Seer: TMonsta Vigilante: GagazetSK Inventor: LewsTherin Hangman: TaitysHeaven Night 1 Trolls Kill Dank Vig kills Lews Tmonsta spies Sc…
  • Shall I declare a game over and post the role list?
  • Phantom the Troll and Jeph the Villager were killed in the night! Day has Begun!
  • Lots of women Kes? According to their manager, they were celibate as of last fall. http://www.metro.co.uk/tv/873938-jedward-are-not-gay-or-autistic-their-manager-insists Referring to the virgin pair’s celibacy, he insisted the duo are just follow…
  • Damdred was Elected Mayor, and Jester the villager was lynched! Night has Begun! And just to spice things up, the first two people to message me 'tonight' can have a free shot with the Detective skill, regardless of their role. This offer is open …
  • Prime the villager and Dogtown the Detective have been killed in the night. Day has Begun!
  • http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2154283/Cats-away-Artist-turns-dead-pet-flying-helicopter-killed-car.html Rather disturbing imo
  • http://www.ted.com/talks/susan_cain_the_power_of_introverts.html Interesting TED talk I ran across. I'm definitely sympathetic to this perspective. :P
  • Tabris the villager has been lynched! Night has Begun! (Roughly 24 hour night phase.)
  • (*sad mod face* )
  • Old news yo? We already had this convo in MY news thread.
  • Tyrsis, specify lynch or elect please, I won't know how to count it otherwise. damdred, bolds please?
  • As the night drew to a close, and the sun began to dawn, the villagers heard two sharp screams. When they dared venture out of doors, they found Dank the Doctor, and LewsTherin the Inventor dead on opposite ends of town. DAY 2 HAS BEGUN
  • I ended up DLing the article referenced in that third link, it's pretty interesting stuff. I think I agree with a lot of things that got said. While some parents do make appalling choices of names, I definitely think that naming your kid whatever …
  • http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow/judge-orders-adolf-hitler-kept-child-custody-173659145.html This link made me think they took the children away because of the questionable politics of the parents, and I was starting to go, "can you DO that?" …
  • Day 1 has ended! Tabris has been elected Mayor, and as his first action in office, lynched Silent Butterfly the villager. Night has begun (Tentatively, Night 1 will last about 2 days. If all night moves are submitted prior to that, Day 2 will star…
  • That article is really disturbing, but leaves me slightly confused as to if they are using actual bath salts as a drug, or if "bath salts" is just a slang term for a new drug. It starts out sounding like the latter, and ends up sounding like the fo…
  • The inventor can use any ability possessed by another town role, but only once, and only one action per day/night cycle. So the inventor could, hypothetically, decide to use the Seer's power tonight. He would then See his target the same way the s…
