  1. The shield is mine, but it does not fully protect.
  2. Then you should watch Incendies, from the same director. I thought that one was beter, though I liked Prisoners as well. Enemy is also by the same director, and is also good, although pretty vague unlike Incendies and Prisoners. Anyway, I did what I said I´d do, and pre-ordered it, so I´ll see for myself if the show is any good. Strangely though, Amazon has sent me an update notifying me of an actual releasedate in June, which is not consistent with HBO´s regular release schedule, so I don't know how reliable this info is.
  3. I never said I was? #### Anway, I will not go down before I know who has got my shield. It´s possible someone interfered, but I´ve received no notice of being roleblocked, and I doubt Jimbob had a higher priority than I did. Peeps must be lying if there was no interference.
  4. Sorry, but it really does. Just wtf are you talking about kb/s? You know the difference between analogue and digital right? It is a fact, that vinyl has a theoretical higher quality than CD´s, because of it being analogue. Again, theoretically, sound can be recorded to vinyl one to one, which can´t be done digitally, you always lose quality in the process. But that´s theoretical. Like I said, vinyl is prone to dust and scratches, CD´s less so. You go have a look at this link: http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/question487.htm
  5. Then I guesss The Peeps was on of Jimbob's last targets. I certainly did target The Peeps, or at least attempted to. So someone else probably was shielded then. I received no PM´s in any case. #### Although Jimbob shouldn´t have been able to target you. Are you very sure you didn´t get a shield Peeps? Rummy, you did get a PM didn´t you? If Jimbob´s priority was higher for some reason, then I think the only players he could´ve switched with The Peeps are Yvonne or ReZ. I´d like to know who has my shield.
  6. There´s an oldskool style point & click adventure on Steam called [Heroine´s quest: the herald of Ragnarok] I´ve been playing for an hour or so, but the game definitely has charm. Oh and it´s free.
  7. And why is that?
  8. If you didn´t care for the first episodes, I suspect you´re not going to like it. I loved the first episodes of season 1, but then I missed the rest. Then I got Netflix, and I found the middle episodes to be not so great. But then towards the end it got better again. I do agree that Claire is one of the most annoying protagonists I´ve ever seen in a show that holds my interest. It´s a shame because I actually like the actress. I do like here when she goes crazy though, that´s awesome. Like I said, I did like the end, so I´m going to watch season 2, which apparently recently became available here on Netflix. But again, I suspect it´s just not for you. That said, Homeland is a remake of a foreign show, from Israel I believe, someone here mentioned the title. Maybe that one´s better. It´s funny how I rarely actually watch Netflix. I should start with Breaking Bad some time..
  9. I was exaggerating folks. Vinyl delivers the best audio quality theoretically, but is prone to scratches. The best medium of course is flac. Geez.. For collectors of physical media though, vinyl is much cooler than a CD, or I dunno, an Itunes giftcard. But I guess I´m on my own here : peace:. Anyway, like I said in the OP (although you seems to have focussed on just one minor sentence), even if you don´t care about vinyl, there will also be live music, but that will be announced closer to the date of the event. Well, I intend to go, so I´d say no.
  10. 1 Rummy 2 .. Rummy 3 The Peeps
  11. This will be even funnier if you´ve seen American Hustle:
  12. Does anyone know what this is, and is looking forward to it? For those who don´t know: It´s a day where people celebrate the BEST medium to put music on: vinyl. It´s a worldwide event, with a lot of recordstores participating in each country. They sell a lot of limited vinyl releases, some specifically released for this event, and therefore very hard to get outside of it. Apart from that, some recordstores will also have live music on that day. This year it´s held on April 19. As for the exclusive releases: they vary a bit per country, some are worldwide releases, some are exclusive to that country (local bands etc.). The records span the broadest range of genres you can think of, in fact some of it doesn´t seem to be music. But there´s bound to be something you like. All kinds of genres, soundtracks, new, old, special re-releases, or limited vinyl exclusives in fancy colours for the collector.. Since most of you are British, here´s a list on the UK site: http://www.recordstoreday.co.uk/exclusive-products/2014/ Also, keep in mind not every store will stock every record. Even if you don´t care about vinyl in general, this list is a great way to discover new (or old) music. You can spend an evening googling the list of 400 releases. As for live events, you´ll have to check yourself, but they haven´t announced anything yet so far. But you can also check your local recordstore to see if they have any special plans. Since I´m a collector of all kinds of media, vinyl is just part of the game. I used to have DJ ambitions (well, I guess I still have more or less), so most of my small colection is dance / house related, but with the trend nowadays of pop artists rediscovering vinyl as a medium (being more exclusive), I´m buying other stuff as well. When I have the money that is. But I like physical objects, being a collector, and when I can choose between a CD and vinyl, I´ll opt for vinyl. Doesn´t seem I´ll have much money to spend next month, but after a quick look, I have my eyes set on at least: Bonobo ft Szjerdene - Get Thy Bearings And I also kind of like the sound of: London Grammar - Hey Now Last year I bought this one (didn´t have any money back then as well.. Otherwise I´d had bought more). Sébastien Tellier & Caroline Polachek - In The Crew Of Tea Time
  13. Yeah sorry, I´ll try not to miss most of the day again. I was successful once again. I prefer not to give my role information yet, on the other hand, it seems some people already guessed it, in which case my targets are no mystery. ###### In addition, I´ll give info if I need to interfere, but at the moment it´s not necessary.
  14. Didn´t exactly get the chance yesterday, but I was successful in my action, as was I last night. But I have no info to report other than that.
  15. I had a casual interest in it. I was interested in the series way back, but it wasn´t properly shown here, so I´ve never actually seen it. But I would´ve like to see how a fun little Kickstarter project turned out in the cinema, but it´s not playing in Cinemas here. There´s a special screening for the fans, but that´s it. Apparently Christine Lakin is in it (and apparently, she was in the series as well). Wow. She grew up, she filled out.. (she was from am old sitcom called Step by Step)
  16. Elizabeth is up for pre-order by the way. https://store.irrationalgames.com/Product.aspx?pSKU=2K-INF-LIZNOIR&vSKU=2K-INF-LIZNOIR $ 250,- So far I think it looks good, but I think I prefer her original design. I heard they didn´t do a statue of her in her original outfit. Anyway, I´ll skip this one, but cool collector´s item nonetheless.
  17. I have no trouble not seeing it. The line is too thin, and there´s too much space between the 'II' and the "souls".
  18. Vote: no lynch
  19. Vote: ReZ I´ll remove it if you say you didn´t pick / get that Galactus creature :p.
  20. Damn, I´d want that.
  21. I can´t get HBO (even if I wanted to), but this show piqued my interest. Too bad that HBO Netherlands only had the first episode free to stream on their site for a limited time, otherwise I´d check it out. I´m seriously considering pre-ordering the blu-rays blind though.. I´ve got a good feeling about it.
  22. Looks pretty cool, but is very expensive ($ 475): Weirder things have happened, a Playboy and Hello Kitty collab:
  23. Bit of a weird purchase, but I was compelled. Can´t wait to find out what Steins;gate is all about.
  24. First of all, all the abilties. I´ll post my comments later. The abilities are abbreviated for the sake of being practical. If anyone want more detailed info.. You´ll actually have to ask the player performing the ability, as I deleted most of the PM´s out of necessity. I also deleted the abilties for dead people, so I try if I can recall them, otherwise, the players themselves have to fill in the blanks. Also, I can´t recall every request I rejected. If you want to know why I rejected something, you can ask now. There is going to be a sequel at some point (I´m thinking Christmas), so take a good luck (especially future mafia members), to see what you´re up against. Turn 1 The Peeps passive: on targeting send player PM with "We Like Roy!" The Peeps active: alignment investigate Yvonne immediately (report sent) Yvonne passive: if 2 players attempt to use the same ability in a turn, grant double vote next turn. Yvonne active: make The Peeps active and passive ability apear in the write-up Rummy passive: on targeting notify Rummy of who´s targeting him and attempting to perform what action. Rummy active: a copy of the PMs ReZourceman sends. Mr-Paul passive: appear town under investigation Mr-Paul active: protect Cube from all targeting Jonnas passive: n/a Jonnas active: kill Jimbob (night) Sheikah passive: on death roleblock player responsible for death (either killer or hammer) next turn Sheikah active: on target, use the ability on the player instead top priority. Jimbob passive: n/a Jimbob active: make anyone targeting Jonnas appear opposite alignment DuD passive: on death (kill), kill killer as well. Dud active: n/a Cube passive: n/a Cube: active: n/a ReZourceman passive: on targeting with a negative ability (kill, ability interference), player must write in green text next turn. If they break this rule, they won´t be able to send in an ability that turn. ReZourceman active: steal The Peeps PM (Peeps already received a PM, no use) Comment: The Peeps had already gotten his result, so there was nothing left for ReZ to steal. Jonnas got extremely lucky.. There was an exact 30% chance Jimbob would be mafia. If Jonnas didn´t take the shot, Sheikah would´ve killed Rummy. Turn 2 The Peeps passive: on targeting include player´s name in a list in the write-up The Peeps active: reflect abilities back to source Yvonne passive: Receive previous night's target for anyone who uses the @ symbol in a post in current day phase. Yvonne active: delay effects of abilities on Yvonne by one phase. Yvonne status: double vote Rummy passive (change available): on targeting notify Rummy of who´s targeting him and attempting to perform what action. Rummy active: a copy of the PM´s Sheikah sends Mr-Paul passive (change available): appear town under investigation Mr-Paul active: kill Sheikah Jonnas passive: n/a Jonnas active: jailkeep mr-paul Sheikah passive (change available): on death roleblock player responsible for death (either killer or hammer) next turn ##### made a mistake, forgot to update passive ability. Was supposed to be changed Sheikah active: placebo truth serum thing Jimbob passive: n/a Jimbob active: n/a DuD passive: passive and active abilities can stop or alter DuD´s passive or active abilities. DuD active: when somebody kills, DuD will take place of killer, but will have the option to decide whether to go thorugh with it. DuD wants to kill Cube instead of Sheikah Cube passive: on death (kill lynch) kill player as well Cube active: n/a ReZourceman passive (change available): on targeting with a negative ability (kill, ability interference), player must write in green text next turn. If they break this rule, they won´t be able to send in an ability that turn. ReZourceman active: force The Peeps = reZ to post 5 sentences or more each post. Reflected by The Peeps ability Comment: Like I already told him, in hindsight, I shouldn´t have allowed DuD´s ability, and I didn't next turn. At first it looked cool, but after looking at it some more, I felt there was very little to distinguish it from a regular kill. Would have allowed it again without the redirection part. It didn´t do anything this time however, as the killer, mr-Paul, was roleblocked. Or well, jailkept. If he was not, Cube would be dead. DuD´s original request was quite involved. I kept replying that I´d need something very detailed and specific before I even considered it. Eventually, this scared him off, and he requested something else. If I had allowed it the way he wanted, he would be a bona fide terrorist. I forgot to update Sheikah´s passive. I forgot what he wanted. It was my mistake. ReZourceman got reflected with his own ability. He had to post 5 or more sentences each post. He did. He neglected to think of some sort of punishment though, and I couldn't be arsed with one, so I didn´t check for this. I also thought this was actually some sort of roundabout way to alignment investigate someone (perhaps why ReZ didn´t think of a punishment). I only allowed it because that turn, nobody actually bothered with an actual alignment investigation. Turn 3 The Peeps passive(change available): on targeting include player´s name in a list in the write-up The Peeps active: alignment investigate Cube immediately: report sent Yvonne passive: Get an extra vote for every page of discussion this turn Yvonne active: anyone targeting Yvonne dies. Yvonne status: triple vote Rummy passive (change available): on targeting notify Rummy of who´s targeting him and attempting to perform what action. Rummy active: get PM´s from mr-paul Mr-Paul passive: reflect everything back to user Mr-Paul active: kill DuD Jonnas passive: people who are blocked by Jonnas won´t be informed Jonnas active: jailkeep mr-paul Sheikah passive: reflect abilities back to user Sheikah active: n/a DuD passive: find out who is targeted for death DuD active: wants to be untargetable Cube passive: on death (kill lynch) kill player as well Cube active: n/a ReZourceman passive (change available): on targeting with a negative ability (kill, ability interference), player must write in green text next turn. If they break this rule, they won´t be able to send in an ability that turn. ReZourceman active: protect The Peeps from mafia Comment: Yvonne´s ability is quite powerful. In normal circumstances, I´d probably would´ve though longer about it, but from turn 2 it was already apparent (to me) that the mafia team were doomed. Also, it was technically indiscriminate, so I thought it potentially could do the mafia some good. However, Yvonne was basically the first person to put the PM´s to good use, he warned a few players he trusted. Even still, the fact it did nothing in the end confirms to me it does not affect the balance. Sheikah was disappointed his reflect ability didn´t work. I don´t consider passive abilities as abilities being used on him. He triggered it himself. Mr-Paul finally chose a useful passive, which became available after Sheikah died because of the lynchbomb (I had to doublecheck this as I´d almost forgotten). It meant that Rummy got his own PM´s, and Jonnas jailkept himself. The reason why the kill failed was therefore because DuD was untargetable, which h chose because he was well aware he was the intended victim. Turn 4 The only thing that happened was that The Peeps roleblocked himself due to Mr-Paul´s reflect ability. So, those are all the abilities if I´m correct. Again, I´ll post my comments about the game in general later.
  25. I had forgotten about him already.
