Thank you, I was wondering about it. Sad that it's broken. :(

My notes bc I need bed, along with conclusions below.
post 38
Our Intrepid (or at least blessedly ignorant and slightly obtuse) hero goes waltzing down the street, drawing strange looks from passers-by (surely it isn't "passer-bys"?). Suddenly, he stops, wheels about on his heel, and walks three steps forward before bending and peering in a window.
"Strange, strange--beyond passing strange, that is" says he.
"Hereunto is a mystery, my dear Mrs. Watson. Oh, I know you'll say it is just another gum-and-candy store, but I have a sneaking suspicion that this is the place that Inspector Gregstrade was talking about the other day. The five-and-ten that sells smuggled imitation Burberry in the bottom of the barrels of candy, you remember? A jimp trick, to be sure--berrying [Sic] coats under mounds of sticky Root Beer Burrels [Sic, again]. The odds and sods of Lunnon [Sic a third time! Why don't you go to a doctor!] would never know there was a fortune in ripped-off clothing in those barrels of candy until they'd eaten half-way down, and the average Joe (Sapphire?) would never buy it in bulk. Properly austere engorging would take literally months to get through the candy, and by then origins of the nondescript burrels would be forgotten. The thieving merchants, however, who buy these burrels ostensibly for their candy displays but in reality for their clothing racks, are truly tricky.
I deduced all this, of course, by seeing the swath of cotton stuck on the Licorice Pretzel jug over there. See the design? What could it be but that logo?"

"What could it be, my dear fellow? What could it be? It's obvious! It's a monstrosity! Who ever heard of licorice pretzels! The very thought makes me quiver with ill-suppressed jello. Your deduction powers are nothing like those of your Grandfather, poor Mr semloH. Come, let's be on our way to the music hall!"

As I've outed myself, I might as well be useful and vote so

vote nmillar

No, but I backed off when he claimed that others would be able to verify it as a joke. I stated I was still "on the fence" about Catte in the post you sre referring to, and didn't back completely until after dedo conformed in the next post.

As such, I was already looking at other potential scum combinations, which made even more sense after dedo's confirmation.

Aha! So we do have Gryffindor! Does that make three Ravenclaw's a bit more unlikely?

we have griffyndor in post 2, btw--

Why donyou have three names, whereas everybody else has two?

@Micro - whoops, completely overlooked that!

Well, you sadi you are on fence and then said it leaves you with amfia among remaining players so it read like he was off the hook by then.

Still doesn't explain the part why you backed down previously and wanted him not to "spill the beans" while you were sitting on this and brought it up only shortly thereafter and what were you expecting to gain from it overall. Catch him as ascum, reveal someone other as scum?

You mean those 3 Ravenclaw that are all confirmed by flip?

Dunno, ask my parents.

I was waiting to see if he went anywhere with it. I did drop the "witch" thing in to multiple posts, but that didn't get a response, which is why I pushed again a short time later.

I should really check the first page more often. I thought someone still in the game had claimed Ravenclaw.

if everyone's claims are to be believed, we have

1. JoeSapphire - William Bird, Gryffindor, Townie Roleblocker. NK N1.
2. catte - "Manuel Alce from Hufflepuff and I am VT" (1037)
3. Lifthrasil - "OK. I'm Samantha Smith, Hufflepuff. " (1078)
4. trentonlf - Professor Andrew Stockton, Ravenclaw, Vanilla Townie. Lunched D1.
5. GymHenson - "Thomas Cole, House Hufflepuff(of course), and sadly just vanilla." (1074)
6. phaolo - ??
7. nmillar - "Okay, I'm Jane Hollis, vanilla Slytherin." (716)
8. Microfish_1 - Alfred Flint, Gryffindor JOAT (1084) (this was why I really didn't want to claim....)
9¾. dedoporno - ??
10. gogtrial34987 - Elizabeth "Lili" Walker, Ravenclaw, Townie Watcher. NK N2.
11. Vitek - "I am Arthur Casey Hanson and am proud Gryffindor. Unfortunately I don't have any ability. " (1082)
12. blotunga - Terence Rowling (no relation), Ravenclaw, Vanilla Townie. Lunched D2.

3 Hufflepuff 3 Gryff 3 Ravenclaw 1 Slytherin 2 Unknown...

NMillar is at L-1

Interestingly, Vitek had the opportunity to hammer, but hasn't done, so a few town points there.

dedo claimed Slytherin very early, and as that's my house, then logically he has to be town.

Micro's claim makes sense, so probably town as well.

That leaves GH, Catte, phaolo and Lift, three of which have all claimed Hufflepuff. Only phaolo hasn't claimed from these (and dedo has only claimed Slytherin).

This is useless..

I'm James Feynman, Gryffindor, Vanilla Townie

Four Gryffindor? There's a liar amongst you. Two PRs as well, one of which has been verified.

Also, with only dedo remaining, I'm the only one to claim Slytherin. As we know Slytherin aren't the bad guys, then surely that proves my claim is genuine? Unless of course, you're going with the hypothesis that there are no Slytherin in the game, in which case it's me and dedo along with one of the Gryffindor claims.

yes... but we knew all along that the houses would be unbalanced as 9/4 is not a rational number. Still, we have 2-3 liars in our midst, assuming dedo was not lying about slytherin earlier...

bump?

it doesn't prove your claim is genuine, ofc, and I believe your actions have borne out the suspicion on you to "reasonable doubt" levels, but it does raise questions about how ZFR distributed people into houses.

However, thank you for reminding us about Dedo's claim earlier... It will be interesting to see if he sticks with it or not... if he is scum, the whole "slytherin is scum" idea that Joe entertained us with his dialogue about (365) might have been on the money.

Knowing he loves Random.org/dice, I suspect that is how the players got shuffled into houses....

Either dedo is PR / one of the VT is lying through their teeth (bad town play to lie about PR even in a mass claim!!), or we maybe have only 2 scum / 1-2 scum PR, because this seems very under-powered for town....

(is rational number the right term? I forget my math. at any rate, it isn't a whole number.)

Is that a genuine dedo quote? If so, he's mis-spelled Slytherin ...
