Knowing that these can be faked in chrome thanks to last round I took this photo in IE. As far as I know there isn't a way to do that in there. (its also why my motto of the moment is screwed up)Aerosteam said:
The image is linked to the full size version of it. (I just didn't want to break the thread) I didn't want to trim the background desktop at all as it might show as tampering and ruin the whole point.
That's true I suppose since the killer can just kill me again the next round... and it's not like the medic is all that useful as seen by the past four games, lol.gritch said:
Aww yeah... my IT background! Heh. Currently I do server / application maintenance for the Provincial Government for a Cognos Business Intelligence environment. (keep the lights on, application patches, fix broken reports, etc)Aerosteam said:
To answer the more direct version of your question... Do I have the HTML skills to pull off a fake? Absolutely, I went to school for programming (VB6 & Java, but code is code). Do I have the Photoshop skills to pull off a fake? Definitely not. (that and I don't own Photoshop)
@Demagogue:
You forgot to change the avatar in the second screenshot to Hippo's.
I'm really quite disappointed.
Edit:
Edit 2: I retract my statement but that's definitely not how any messages I send look. That's not the default avatar that I see. I suppose it could be different. I could put some serious money on Demagogue being the Killer at this point.
My second point still stands. And I'm keeping the gif. Because Nathan Fillion makes me happy.

Edit:
I will point out I have no background in programming nor did I own photoshop before last round and I still made convincing screenshots. It's very easy to download a free trail of ps and modify a screenshot. Especially if you follow the instructions I laid out last round.Demagogue said:

@Dema: Hmm...
First thing, it is actually possible to alter website text in Internet Explorer. You are probably not a proficient coder and I believe you when you said you didn't know that because you aren't ghost quoting in this thread - a proper coder would know how to do it.
Further, looking at your post history you are definitely one of the more active players. Because of this it's likely you know I code based on what I've said last round. Very unlikely you lied because if you know you can edit text on IE, then of course I would also.
Conclusion 1: You did not alter the PM's code.
Very odd choice for text you want to appear on this site. Times New Roman and medium sized. But people have their preferences for browsing options - I know a former player uses one of the grey backgrounds.
I believe you on not using an image manipulation program. Main thing for this - your avatar. You're a member of the Pub Club and anyone who is in it has an interesting avatar but your one is rather boring, meaning you aren't good with programs like PhotoShop. Your avatar, I can tell, is very old. Further shows you're not one to edit images.
Conclusion 2: You did not edit the screen cap of the PM.
From a technical stand point, both PMs are sound. I've changed my own browsing options and lined my own PMs with yours - the pixels align correctly. Times for them are valid, for both when the PMs were sent and what time you took the screen cap.
You are a relatively new player and it's true the Medic's ability has not been of high activity since you joined, it's understandable you're not sure how the role works so it's a possibility you just made a blunder.
Conclusion 3: The PMs are real.

@Caramel and gritch: (See my previous post.) I'm quoting you guys because it's only you two who have expressed suspicion on Demagogue.
Here is the suspect list:
altnameJag
FPLOON
gritch
DoPo
tm96 (Not logged in during any murder)
Demagogue (The Medic)
BeerTent (Almost died)
kingofkumquats (Dead)
Here is the suspect list:
altnameJag
FPLOON
gritch
DoPo
@Caramel: Firstly, yes, that glitch with sent PMs exists as I suffer from it.
Secondly, I seriously doubt tm96, a brand new player is that cunning to send a murder message externally.
Thirdly, why I think Demagogue is the Medic is not mostly based on times. Look at conclusions 1 and 2.

@Frappe: I think the robot is from when I first became a pubsub. It reset my avatar to blank when I subbed, and I couldn't find Red for some reason so I was looking through other ones and I choose that robot. That robot is tied to my account somehow I'm just not sure how. I just sent you a PM Caramel and it gave me RedXIII as the avatar that time. So I have no freaking clue what's going on... maybe it has to do with us both being pubsubs? *goes to PM Aero*
I'm all for staying in my crows nest for this to pass over, but the more Rounds I play, the more I've started to see Frappe as the eternal paladin. Once he sees himself as sure he's on the right path, nothing at all seems to dissuade him otherwise. He'd destroy his own assets in order to prove his point, even when evidence points away.Aerosteam said:
If the killer kills Dema next turn it's be just as useful and we'd have had a turn to shrink the list twice. If the killer doesn't kill Dema (to keep the heat off him), then we got the medic another go. It's strategically more useful to gank one of the others on the list.
I would like to something else to everyone's attention. If we take a look at the original suspicious post by Dema.
The only way I can figure that Demagogue knew BeerTent was saved is by him being the Killer himself.
If we assume Demagogue is the Medic I'd ask this question - how would he know which of the 5 people on the list was saved? Sure he'd know someone was saved but how would he know it was definitely BeerTent? He didn't just celebrate that someone was saved but rather than someone in particular was saved. There's nothing posted by the GM as far as I'm aware that would inform the Medic who was actually saved.
