Day 1: The Joke's On YouPhalla's Arch. Midnight.
Mad King Thorn sat, pumpkin chin propped up by one hand. In front of him stood a mob of transformed heroes and villains, all baying for each other's blood. If his pumpkin face could ever stop smiling, it wouldn't have. After all, what greater comedy than to watch the greatest heroes of Tyria stab each other in the back?
He paused, and took a deep breath.PHIL THE HUMAN! STEP FORWARDS!There was a long, awkward pause before a gangly skeleton stepped out of the crowd."Hi. I'm Phil." CONGRATULATIONS! YOU GET A MEDAL! THE REST OF YOU SHOULD BE MORE LIKE PHIL! NOW PHIL! WHO DO YOU WANT ME TO KILL?"Um... we put it to a vote, and... we chose that guy." Phil pointed nervously, his legbones shaking in fear.RIGHT!It was only a few minutes later that the rest of the bodies were found. Evil... was in.The Dead:Megafrost - Lieutenant Kholer, Ascalonian Ghost. DEATH BY... POPULAR... DEMAND?[/b] SaberOverEasy - Grand Duchess Faolain of the Nightmare Court. DEATH BY CONICAL SHOTGUN BLAST[/b] TheRoadVirus - Theodryn Rydhaur, Norn Whispers Agent. DEATH BY HAMMERyeah. And so we likely killed the Cultist or a Neutral. A pity in the latter case. And yeah as Fiaryn deduced, it's likely Megafrost got killed because he didn't tell a joke... Also don't let INANTP get you down, he's been a preachy motherfucker lately

That or Alegis has some kind of vote protection? Is there precedent for such a thing?

so there are clarifications? Also it would seem that Baidol probably had a one time self-guard. As seen in Kilnaga's previous game. shalmelo should be familiar with this. This would be my bet at least. Or the guard has odd tastes.

One time vote redirection seems reasonable. Probably a village special.

The thing I don't get is why it wouldn't go to the person in second place... if Alegis was the one who overturned it.. let me recount and see if I missed a last minute mega vote or something

yeah and fwitw I double checked about saber always being day 1'd and just saw it in Skies. and I noticed he gets killed early (which is a bummer).But just saw that this would be getting day 1'd twice in a row (as opposed to some ridiculous amount). I did make sure it wasn't a 3-5 times in a row type deal forums.penny-arcade.com/discussion/comment/24868066/#Comment_24868066

So much for that theory about Baidol not being guarded, eh?

so the connections to Megafrost are
Typhus733 and Obifett who both voted for him.
and INANTP who he roleblocked..but that seems farfetched.
if SoE was doing his softnetworking with select people , including Alegis. And Obi had an ability and trusted Alegis. That could possibly make sense.
I hate to play blame the victim. But if part of his deal is to normally contact you, shalmelo and he was a neutral. He really should have :/
Granted it could have been a hunter being hunted deal. In which case I'm not sure why he would share it with Obi.

So much for that theory about Baidol not being guarded, eh? as I said. You do recall the self-guarding ability in Kilnaga's previous game, yes? Considering Baidol's odd behavior, it wouldn't surprise me if he was trying to provoke the mafia into wasting a kill. Also the theory was more that he was a special... Also it would seem that Baidol probably had a one time self-guard. As seen in Kilnaga's previous game. shalmelo should be familiar with this. This would be my bet at least. Or the guard has odd tastes.

From this postgranted if Langly turns out to be the guard, it would explain some Blue Rogue loyalty or some crapFrom a rational point of view though. There was no reason to guard Baidol. He had three votes on him, making him someone that the mafia would likely want to keep alive in most circumstances. He was acting bizarre which would make most people suspect. Only possibility (of a guard and not self guard) that makes sense is buddy loyalty or softnetworking/Rend dealing (or light variety) with the right people.
