You are a...
Citizen.
You have a special ability. You are the Builder.
Details of your role will be revealed to you shortly.

It is up to you whether to reveal your role to your fellow players, however I suggest you consider that carefully and perhaps keep it to yourself until the full details of your role are revealed.

You have a special ability. You are the Builder.
As the Builder, your carpentry skills will come to good use in this game. You have the ability to construct and build a Bunker. . Bulding a Bunker is not an easy task - it might take you most of the game to do so. But the reward is incredible and is well worth the effort. This reward will be revealed to you after Imprisonment #2.
So how do you build a Bunker anyway? Of course you can't build a whole Bunker all by yourself, that'd be insanity! You're going to need some friends to help you. You will attempt to construct a Bunker in the middle of the night with the help of your fellow Citizens. Every episode you will attempt to build the Bunker under the cover of darkness. To get your friends to help, you will have to get them to secretly post a code word in their confessionals (NOT conversations). For every person you get to type the code word (either wittingly or unwittingly, either counts) in their confessional per episode, you get one point. You may type the code word in your own confessional for one point per episode.
You can say, suggest, hint, trick, or manipulate however you want to get that person to post that exact word in their confessional. You could even reveal your role and get them in on the gig. It is completely up to you whether or not to reveal this ability to your fellow players.
Be wary, there is a trap. If a Spy posts the code word in their confessional, the Bunker will be sabotaged and be blown to bits.
How long will it take to build the Bunker? Who can you trust to help? That is all up to you.
Unfortunately, your current point total cannot be revealed to you. The codeword might change periodically. The reward will be revealed to you after Imprisonment #2. It is possible that during the game you can complete special tasks to lower the point total you need to build the Bunker.
It is recommended you begin slowly, and work your way up. I know the point total looks daunting, but remember it may lower and if you think hard, you may find ways to make this task easier. The reward is well worth the effort.
Point total needed: 27
current codeword: skeptical
If you have any questions please ask.

Your code word remains skeptical for Episode 2.

Should you complete your Bunker, you will receive an incredible reward.
You will be able to put one person into the Bunker each and every episode, including yourself. Any person who is in the Bunker cannot be Imprisoned.
Yes, this means you could make yourself completely Immune from Imprisonment should you complete your mission. You could also instead choose to make someone else Immune from Imprisonment instead of yourself.
Surely permanent Immunity is something to work hard for. You've still got aways to go though, so keep up the good work. If you try and build the Bunker too quickly, you'll risk detection and destruction by Spies. Try and build it too slowly, and you might get less use out of it or be eliminated before then. It's up to you to find the right pace.

Just checking, have you been counting the ones I do in my confessional? I have 3 so far...

I've checked and rechecked each time and that point total is correct.
Don't forget to make a name for the Costume Party! =)

spies3Anneliese (8:14:02 PM): So that Reicheru can stop yelling at me really quick... For the first 2 episodes, the word was the same. Did I get a point each time the word was posted overall, or each time the word was posted per episode?
every time someone posts a word in an episode you get a point. 1 point per word per episode.

Another question. What are the requirements for the word appearing in the confessional? Must it be by itself in its own post? Can it be posted as a part of a conversation? Do you just use CTRL + F to find the word? How does it have to appear to count...

Post by Anneliese on May 21, 2007 18:04:32 GMT -5
Also, may the word appear as its own thread in one's Folder? For example if the word were Bananas and I posted a thread "Bananas" in the Anneliese folder, and the only word in it were "Bananas", would that count?

We have been over the rules 100 times, everything is absolutely clear. :-) The word must be spelled correctly. The word must be posted in a confessional that is not inside of a conversation, meaning the person has to type up the word themselves. That's about it.

Are you completely clear with how your role works? I do not want you to be scared or shy to ask me questions lol. I apologize if I have been offputting or curt with you. I shouldn't have been. If you have any questions at all please ask me.

I think I am lol... It's just after last week everyone kept hounding me to find out every little detail which I thought I already knew. The word MUST be in the Episode __ Confessional thread, and it MUST be typed on its own, not as part of a conversation, right?

What you should tell people is that the word has to be:
A) spelled correctly
B) not part of a conversation that they've copied and pasted. this includes PM's.

Also the code words I give you are not clues. I don't give clues, this isn't Mole lol. I just try and think up a word that is a normal word but very rarely used (so someone doesn't accidentally hit it). My original theory was that you would just use the word tons in normal speech and then some people might pick up on it and start using it, so for a lot of the words I tried to make that easy to do. For "skeptical" I tried to think up something spy-ish then I searched this board and Spies 2 to see if anyone ever used it. "newcomer" just because new people were coming it at the time and it'd be an easy word, plus no one would type "newcomer" accidentally they'd type "newcomers." I chose juvenile because at the time people were acting juvenile.

Y'know, if Sam had just come forward and said "As long as the words are somewhere in the individual's folder and NOT part of a conversation," we would have immediately caught 2 spies. AFTER the game, he elaborated on this criteria, but the way he says it here makes it sound like it must be in the confessional thread, not its own thread. Sneaky Sam
