Uh, what I tried to do was rifle through Opop's corpse (parsley, the graverobbing spice) and take any spices he might have died with, but I think something interfered with me last night. My results say my action was successful but Grandi didn't tell me I got any spices, and instead I received a vaguely threatening message claiming to be from the observers of the game. Now it's possible that Opop just didn't have anything to steal, but I think I might have been befuddled.

Ok Grandi just confirmed in my confessional that I still have the parsley and nothing else that could've come from Opop. Parsley is gossiping, i.e. if you use it and someone visits you that night, the action fails and you keep the spice.

So there is no way my action was actually successful despite that being my night results. So I was clearly befuddled last night, presumably by someone who was worried I was going to get a juicy investigative result on someone and wanted to sabotage it.

I'm responsible for the mod's stress headache result. I'm not quite sure what to make of that yet

Oh, could this be the reason why there are two results when you seem to be expecting there to just be one?

I might as well tell you now cause idk whether or not CPig will tell you after I die tonight, our masonry has a power to randomly copy a number of abilities used at night and use them on random targets. The number of abilities is randomized between 1 and half the total ability count, and I assume the chosen abilities are also randomized. The masonry is not told which abilities were used or on whom, but any results produced are given to us, and even if both CPig and I die, the masonry continues to work its sorcery wreaking havoc.

Oh I think my masonry action could have prevented your graverob. I created a spice cop + mason maker blend and used N1, so I've been in a spice cop masonry with TPC and salad. It gives a list of spices that the target owns, has owned and what's been used on you (randomly sorted).

It's a long list that I haven't fully checked out what they mean, it includes individual spices and blends

Do you know a blend with the initials H. O.? If that wasn't one you made it may have been used on you

Also Eyes of Potatoes is the watch masonry salad and TPC and I are in that salad created.

I guess it's possible, but my night action result clearly said my action was successful, and it absolutely wasn't, because I still have the parsley I started with. So my night action results are an outright fabrication, including the message. Someone befuddled me, and that would be enough to cancel the graverob. Personally, I know one person who really likes befuddlement so let's just say they've shot way up on my scum list today.

First I heard about a watch masonry, can you explain what this is? And what's the Panopticon masonry? It sounds like there's a shitload of powered masonries out there and I'm not part of any of them!

I'll get to the other things later but one of the spices you had interacted with is called Hallucinogenic Overdose, so it sounds like a befuddle cocktail of some kind.

There were also two Pppaaarriiikkkaaas (I assume that's the Cpig blend that created The Buffet) which suggests you were visited by someone - did you have spices stolen?

As far as I can tell my inventory is as it should be (assuming my graverob failed). Hallucinogenic Overdose sure sounds like it could be what confused my results and created that message, I agree there. The only masonries I'm in are the Buffet and the Lazy Susan, which is the unpowered masonry with saladscooper and formerly PQ and Voodoo. It has been dead quiet all night, nobody is talking. I don't know what created the Lazy Susan, I think PQ did it.

I'm trying to figure that out but "Eye of Potatoes" (salad's masonry I'm in) interacted with someone in "Mods Stress Headache", or the reverse - Salad interacted with someone who has been in Mods Stress Headache. I think Salad is the first name on that list and TPC and myself are absent.

You're sure on your Lazy Susan membership? Because TPC said in one of ours that they were in Lazy Susan (I specifically asked because they kept saying they were in 4 masonries)

Yes, TPC is also in Lazy Susan. I just wasn't sure if TPC wanted me to say so, but if you know anyway, I can confirm it.

I don't know if it helps you or not, but I didn't buy any spices for quite a while. If someone tried to spice steal me when I had no spices, I don't think there's any way for me to know.

I'll wait for more people to check in but don't have too much more to add. I'm getting a little burned out on cooking. I think salad is highest on my scum list now but need to reread.

Today is our last day in my current office so I'll be packing up the rest of my stuff. If all goes according to plan I'll be setting my work station up in the new building next week. I'm okay with things NOT working out, I'm not excited about the commute to work although I'll have to suck it up and deal.

Veggies!



This all got chopped. I had no asafoetida, put on some garlic instead, and coriander went on whole. Also no mango powder, put on lime nothing, I forgot. As I did forget the salt too, thankfully that's fixable.



Chop chop.



Cooking veggies! I added them too fast and the potatoes didn't cook properly at first, so I had to cover it up and add a glass or so of water so it'd steam properly and not burn. It worked perfectly.



Steamin'!



The result. Yes, I do own tablecloths. Yes, that plate is probably in its mid 40s by now. We don't do photogenia here, sorry.

Veredict: pretty loving tasty, would again. Heavily recommend adding some salt. Will also look onto getting mango powder for the next time.

It was our "eyes of potatoes" group action - it watches the target but also says who they visited? It said you were visited by no one.

Yeah, that's correct on both counts. My spice mix roleblocked and befuddled a number of targets of my choosing, but would have failed if anybody had visited me. So basically I picked half the players. Ideally this would prevent a death, which unfortunately didn't happen.

Meaning that Sand, HCT, Illu and Token were roleblocked last night, so they couldn't have done the nightkill unless they jugged. Leaving Wind, Maerlyn, salad and TPC open. Wind is dead and town. Maerlyn has, as far as I'm concerned, sufficiently proven that she used the spice she claimed to have used by naming my spice mix and my targets. Salad has claimed to have roleblocked Wind, and Wind being roleblocked was publically announced in the day opening. So that leaves TPC as the only player who wasn't blocked and hasn't claimed an action yet.

(Asking Illu for a claim was to muddle the waters a bit.)
