Ah I just read this:
It is time for an announcement. The riddle game has begun, lucky contestants chosen to join the game have fun. It is now time to have a battle of wits with the Riddler. All who were included in the riddle game must play if they wish to be removed from it. Failure means death. No discussing in thread or in the zsasz QT if you happen to be in it and invited.
It doesn't actually say we can't discuss it here in our QT, but I'll double check for confirmation. e: also, BC frequently read our topic, he surely would have intervented long before we figured out the Bloody Cobbler riddle. It´s not expressly forbidden, that doesn´t mean it´s allowed. You should have checked with BC. Like I said, I believe Rad did. Moreover, after we started discussing a bit BC posted this in the QT: YulathPerson was signed in when posted 02-09-2012 01:18 PM ET (US) Why? I did not confirm a players role. I merely clarified on things you have already said in here. I don't want to see people discouraged on setup based reasons. It also isn't just helping you as both third parties have asked if they could be roleblocked and know they can be -_- As for the riddle stuff, before making generalized comments talk to the people within said game to find out what answers they have been given by me to figure out how the game works. The more questions asked the more information they receive  So I am really sure, that this was, in fact allowed. as you see, he even encouraged talking about it... Really? When wondering about the Riddler game, you should talk to eachother to get answers, but Town should shut up about it and figure it out themselves? You don´t find that odd? yes. I do find it odd. Like I already posted, designed like this, the Riddler is really anti-town. But if the host of the game encourages you to discuss, wouldn't you? Or do you believe that this wasn't BC??? I´d ask again for clarification. The answer I read sounds like you should tell eachother about the rules that BC have told you each through PMs, so that he doesn´t have to tell you all individually, not that you are free to help eachother with the riddles themselves. again, I believe Rad did that. Plus, at the point where BC posted that we already made some Riddle comments, he would have stopped us. Seriously. Also, BC answered possible answers with hints. You could ask questions about the riddle and he gave information. That's what he meant. He literally inspired us to all send questions and answers in and compare what we get back...combine that with the riddler message not mentioning scum QT, I see no reason to assume that this is forbidden. Finally, only one person got out of the game. JB actually had the answer to his third riddle immediately and failed to send it in, because he was too tired which evens it out even more. No game breaking done. Both lost one person, that's better than your other vigs So far I have "Radfield probably took care of it", "BH didn´t stop us" and "but we screwed up the advantage we got from cheating so it´s okay". ##vote Jayjay54
alright, last comment from me on that issue.
a) It nowhere states that this is forbidden, you just assume that it is, because of "the spirit of the riddler game". Maybe the vig was designed to not be good, because you already had a fuckton of KPs (lynch+2x compVigs (Joker, Penguin) + normal Vig (sasz)+ solomon's passive)...not to mention the thirds. Did you ever happen to think that the last vig was not town favoured?
b) BC did not only let us continue, but actually encouraged us to discuss and share what our inquiries got us. After seeing we started discussing.
c) Rad said, he'd check, so I believe he did, why wouldn't I?
You just call us cheaters, because you think the role should be different. Well, it wasn't...
I hate being called a cheater.

I hate being called a cheater. You say I´m making assumptions, but it´s you who are making assumptions. You assumed Radfield checked and got an OK, you assume that you were allowed due to the specific wording in the announcement, and you assume that BC is checking your every post in the scumQT, ready to jump forward if you do something weird. You´d only need to make sure once, check with Radfield again, send your own PM to BC, and I would have no real problem with this, only with the setup and the riddler power.
this is what BC posted:

He says we should talk about the game with other players in the game. Everyone received the same Riddler PM, so it is not at all about rules, but about inquiries and questions. If we aren't allowed to talk about the riddle at all, why would he write this?
BC actively encourages us to discuss the riddles. "The more question asked the more information they receive".
How is this not a confirmation that we are allowed?

I got incorrect back eventually... and correct back on the last riddle I got, had basically seen it before also amusing choice Zsasz is a comp vig with limited targets isn't he? Also I found radfields little bits of subversion rather amusing
he'd not really give hints, but say "warm or cold":
Original Message From BloodyC0bbler:
have an almost right answer in one of these ones.
Original Message From jaybrundage:
Btw Five men came to pay tribute to* his grave this to is supposed to be here correct.
Because of his intellect
Because (pun involving question marks)
Because the riddler wanted to be buried that would make people question his choice of a grave.
The riddler was buried there to provide this riddle.
No one knows why he was the riddler.
We can never know hes dead
Original Message From BloodyC0bbler:
not quite, but close
Original Message From jaybrundage:
Because thats where he wanted to be buried
Original Message From Curu:
So you've made it this far? It is time for one final challenge:
Riddle Me This:
The Riddler has told his final riddle.
Five men came to pay tribute his grave.
The first spoke of his greatest triumphs.
The second told of his most foolish mistakes.
The third praised his extraordinary intellect,
While the fourth referenced his questionable sanity
The fifth remained silent, pondering the Enigma that was lost to all.
Now tell me, why was The Riddler buried in the exact center of Gotham City?
also, yes you are right, you had 3 comp Vigs + lynch....that's 3 KP for town and mafia every night. Plus lynch and solomon...holy shit, that's a lot...

No, BC asked you to talk to eachother about what answers he had given so that you could "figure out how the game works", basically figure out how the power works, that´s not the same as helping eachother solve the riddle.
would you please stop it already? that doesn't even make sense. everyone received the same rule information PM and no further stuff on rules. it's not that everyone had different pieces of the riddler role. Everyone had the same pm and just hot & cold stuff afterwards. Nothing more. So no he meant talking about the riddles...
i promise now, last post on issue. Already made 3 too many.
nice post VE :D although, I don't agree, with low activity on my part :D like 15 pages in my filter

I took it as a way for Palmar to claim third party without claiming third party.
at first I thought he was two-face, because of different behavior between night and day...
his play was really good for town, although I considered his batman "claims" as borderline (e.g. list with all players and his own name in coloured letters)...maybe biased because of scum view...
|
his claims basically helped town a lot. He implied DT abilities and painted Rad red. Also his "To Batman" posts basically showed town his actions beforehand, making him a scum thread and not a town thread. As soon as joker was dead he was 100% pro town which is why we gave up VE (<3) to remove him.

I only know troll palmar  maybe you're right.
As I said, my view is biased, but I believe without him / his batman actions, Rad would have survived as confirmed DT.

the shot claim was a little too much, I agree. The timing was fine though, very first post he made day 2, people were voting all over the place...nothing scummy timingwise here imo....
BM saving rg and saying he saved lay is still beyond comprehension to me.
Same thing with kurumi. Why appear as scum?

No, town DT radfield would never role claim. He would just push for his lynch and only claim if it was absolutely necessary in order to get the target lynched. Lynching sheth would obviously have been easy, given how close to a lynch he was on day 1. I doubt he would even check sheth in that position, but rather someone who he isn't sure about. Good thing we discussed this before you rolled DT!
yea, still learning, only second game :D but eager to improve
nuke: I liked your move pretending you were protected...although it didn't make sense LORE-wise, it could have fit setup-wise. rg destroyed it though.
