Serial Killer

[juju]

Okay, so I have some good or bad news for all of you, depending on how
you take it.

There will be no serial killer kill this day, for a good reason. I am
the SK, and a damn deputy sherrif held me up on my way to gmg's house
(note: I did not target any of my fellow culties, for reasons
explained later I wanted to win with you guys if possible.) I just got
BNBs PM about it, and had to make a choice about what to do.
I expect this deputy will come forward today or tomorrow to denounce
me as the SK, or perhaps as a cultie since our kill didn't go through
either. I have a tenuous strategy for wheedling the town into letting
me live a while longer, though it's not guaranteed to work, but it's
better than laying down and taking it. But in order to do it, I needed
you guys to know, as I'm sure much craziness will ensue.

So, why did I lie? Frankly, I was hoping I'd come into the cult and
you guys would magically have the Psychiatrist. Then I would be able
to use my powers for the good of the group until near the end, when he
could cure me and make me a normal townie, capable of winning with my
new "team." This could still happen, and it's what I hoped for once I
got the invite to the group.

However, as it is I still hold my old win condition, and wanted to
keep it quiet in order to hide until we either had the psychiatrist,
or he died, thus losing me any chance of winning with you guys. In
which case I'd have to look out for old #1.

Now, well, I feel bad for lying, but want to see a way to spin this
into a positive for team evil to make up for it. That is if I can
avoid the kill today.

KingP, I don't know if you were aware, but at least two actions were
targetted at you night 1; myself and the schitzo. The schitzo ended up
protecting you from me.

I have one piece of "proof" that could serve to convince them of my
SKness, which is that the night I killed Jewbie the psychiatrist
showed up at the door as I was slipping out, effectively targetting my
victim rather than myself. I will let this known in open play, and say
that if the psychiatrist disputes my claim they can come forward and
say I'm full of shit. Obviously they won't, since it's the truth. But
if someone did come out it would be someone who was afraid of the SK,
namely the horsemen. I will also mention that those who wouldn't want
me to help are those who have something to fear from a town-aligned
killer, thus making people a little less likely to call for my blood
loudly.

So, my plan. It's imperfect, and probably won't work, but it's better
than doing nothing and letting them kill me anyway if it comes up.

I will admit to being the killer when and if someone calls me on it. I
will then point them back to my rhetoric about how the SK is the most
useful tool we can have in the game, and offer my services to the
town. I will tell them I did not come forward due to the possibility
of being recruited. I will then promise them that if I am approached
for recruitment I will turn it down, in order to make the chances even
(which is not a lie, since obviously I won't be approached for
recruitment NOW.) I will offer to be killed later if they think I am
in the cult, or to be cured whenever they begin to doubt my loyalty.
Hopefully they will believe me, allow me to live and protect me at
night so the horsemen and vigilante won't come for me. If the tradeoff
is worth it, we may need to have me SK a cultie, all in the name of
ensuring we keep the extra kill. If the psychiatrist is killed, I
would want you all to kill me before it gets too close to time, since
I'm quite sure I'm fucked as far as winning as SK (not that they ever
have much chances anyway) I might as well do something devious to help
a side win.

As I said, unlikely to work, but might as well do something, right?
Or if you guys don't trust me, you can be at the head of the lynch
pack, torches in hand, denouncing me as the dreadful SK, and when I
die and am shown to be bad in more than 1 way it might lend you a
glimmer of respectability.

Fuck fuckity fuck fuck fuck, that's a huge wall-o-text. Sorry guys.

[Bianca Johnson]

do what you've got to do.

[juju]

Or, if you want me dead today, come out and say that you are an
investigator and I came up not only SK but also a baddie. But then it
calls into the fact that they know they can't trust you further than
they can throw you after a night, even if you were good when you came
out with information.

[juju]

By the way, I would only come out if someone came out about me. This
is not as likely to happen today as it would tomorrow, if the deputy
is smart. They would want to be sure that I was a baddie by blocking
me two nights, instead of running the chance that the SK targetted
someone who was protected or just forgot because it was a weekend.

[KingPellinore]

Well that's interesting.

I'm guessing the doctor will immediately try to cure you.

Not if they want to keep the extra town night kill. I'm actually
surprised by how easily everyone's accepting the plan right now. Is it
bad that I always feel guilty for lying in these games?

Personally, I would have preferred knowing you were the SK sooner, but
this game wouldn't be very much fun if everyone told the truth all the
time.

I'm glad we have you on our side, juju. And I'm very glad you ended
up not killing me on Day 1.

Granted, I was a townie then.

Well at the time I was thinking I needed to make sure that I had a
chance to win. If I didn't get outted, it would have been a pretty
sweet position to be an SK in, don't you agree? I always like the
underdog, and with no SK winning so far I'd say they're a pretty big
underdog.
I'm glad you guys recruited me, it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy
and wanted.

Oh, I'd have done the same thing in your position.

You want conflicted? I was in the original "Moldie" group during
Sensible Epicerie, THEN I was recruited in to the Moth Group.
