Only Brewers can transfer Shine to other players, right? We've already had one confirmed scum brewer flip, and I can't imagine the scumteam picking two brewers.

Are you sure you received the Shine from Moat? Because if so, that means the remaining scum has to be MMT.

well this actually never came up but in the shine lottery it said "you are not allowed to discuss this with anyone" which i assume applied to scum so maybe they did pick multiple brewers

well moat said he gave me shine on the night i got an extra shine and no one else said otherwise sooooooooo probably unless like some redirection or something but then they would have to know the role of a brewer and also redirect that original target to go to me and... yeah i dont think that's possible because it was n1 that i got the shine iirc

Please don't get this wrong you guys. SSV's been floating through the game, hasn't put out a single case on scum, and is lying about his spymaster ability.

It's definitely either SSV or myself - please do a reread on the two of us and get this right, because at this point it's clear as day to me that it's SSV.

Re-reading over SSV, I feel like there's been a lot of white noise over the last few days.


While it's great that SSV was going back over the game looking for information, he doesn't share a single conclusion that he came to from said re-read. What was the point of any of those posts, if the strongest read he has after the fact is a gut read on me?

I am of the opinion that if you really did see 4 actions on a night where only 3 have been claimed, you would be using that to try and case someone. That story still doesn't add up, nor does the fact that you don't seem particularly invested in figuring out why it doesn't add up.

"A letter for me? It's about time those ugly mugs sent me some news from back home. Let's see here..."

Settled in his uncomfortable Alcatraz cell for the night, Al Capone tore open the long-awaited letter and lay back on his bed to read the latest news from his beloved Chicago home. The first couple of lines already had him heaving a heavy sigh.

"Ah, those bastards got Vic? drat, that guy never could catch a break. Tough luck for him."


quote:

Vic spent his days limping back and forth. Fetching cigs, hanging up coats and hats, shining shoes, emptying ashtrays, clearing away Shine empties - not exactly the glamorous life he'd expected when joining the Outfit. But that was just the kind of luck he'd come to expect, since that first fateful day...

After all, how lucky was he to get hand-picked by Capone himself to head out what was supposed to be a simple run? Collect protection money from a few bars, make sure they knew where their loyalties were, maybe swipe a bottle of Shine for the road. Easy stuff, right?

Unfortunately, it turns out those bars had paid their protection money to the North Side Gang just before he got there - in fact, the gangster still had the cash wadded up in one fat paw when he swaggered up, proud as a peacock. And drat if their other hand didn't have a gun aimed at Vic the second he opened his fat mouth.

Nope, it wasn't bad enough that he had to turn tail and skedaddle like a coward. That would have been too easy. They decided to teach him a lesson, the nature of which involved leaving three toes behind by way of a bullet or five and saddling him with an unsightly nickname for the rest of his days.

So Vic limped back and forth, staying in the background and waiting for his chance. After all, Shine gave people power - enough power to ignore silly things like a crippled foot. If he could just get his hands on some of that stuff - maybe he could finally get back on track with the good luck he was long overdue for?

:rip: SirSamVimes, aka Victor 'Two Toes' Griest, Outfit-Aligned 1-Shot Universal Shine Backup {Spymaster}, was executed on Day 8! :rip:

♪ Can you hear that lonesome moanin'
Is that you or is that me?
My broken heart ain't aching for nothing
That I can't touch or I can't see

And do you hear that lonesome cryin'
Thought I made it stop it's singin'
But my hands lay there on the bottle
And I just drank until my heart would be too drunk to dream ♫

Capone read on, grimacing as he reached the end of the first page - the handwriting was messy, clearly written in haste. Whoever penned this letter obviously mailed it off on their way out of town.

"Blackjack too? Hell, who's left at this point that knows the Shine recipe? I never shoulda shacked up with that Russkie bitch - knew she'd be more trouble than she was worth. drat."


quote:

Luck is a strange thing. Sometimes it's the wink you catch from across a crowded bar, or the perfect hand a dealer drops in front of you at the end of a long night. But whatever form it takes, it's always life-changing in some way or another. In that sense, you figure Al Capone calling you into his office to meet 'a special lady' was the luckiest thing that ever happened to you.

You wouldn't have believed it if she hadn't shown you herself - such humble ingredients, when combined in the right way, quite literally made miracles happen.

:rip: Moatillata, aka Iliana 'Blackjack' Varrone, Outfit-Aligned Vanilla {Brewer}, was filled with lead on Night 8! :rip:

♪ So baby, you can leave if you wanna
There ain't no drinkin' when the bottle is dry
Sugar, you can leave if you wanna
I got no more tears to cry

Do you hear that lonesome shuffle
Of my feet walking out of the bar
And I stumble down the same drat streets
My daddy done stumbled before ♫
