  1. I will vote now for Saffron Iguana for sleeping 17 hours. The Lord Ruler did not mean for man to sleep that long.
  2. Thank The Lord Ruler, I’m fine. As long as He continues to bless us, we will all stay well. Just as long as we all believe…
  3. I see we have another Ruin's Champion to face... This was pretty fun, and I did my best to stay up to speed with things after I died. Unfortunately the Elims didn't succeed in getting Swan N4, or they would have finished murdering the "PMing Spree" trust quartet of Dingo/Tuatara/Meerkat/Swan with utmost efficiency. (Also for those living, no, I did not talk in the entire doc like this. That would have given even me too much of a headache.)
  4. I think avoiding making ashmounts out of molehills would be good for everyone. But dismissing them entirely is also, perhaps, not ideal. But I've said my piece on it, as far as it goes. And there are other places to look for suspicions for the day.
  5. Oh my. Iguana was a Rioter. Ergo, someone had vote manipulation. Not sure if they were on at rollover but Toucan and Heron’s votes were significantly before.
  6. See, that's less not "really the right phrase" and more the complete opposite. You weren't suspicious of the lack of substance, but were suspicious of the substance itself. I'll also note that I specifically said I didn't want to vote Falcon. I didn't understand their reasoning, and found parts of it faulty, but they also had reasoning to look at. Chameleon - that's quite alright, but it would be nice to know earlier. And an update on your Hyena opinions would be appreciated. From what I saw, you were there?
  7. Spy they may be, but some spies can live guilt-free. Ivory Dragonfly, can I ask what about my posts seems so performative and insubstantial that you vote me 40 seconds before rollover?
  8. Are seven people alright with this distribution? Pearl Chameleon Of the three other two-votes, Mouse has contributed some at meaningful points, and Penguin is strictly inactive... and to be honest, that CR intrigues me. And there's Crocodile and Hyena voting on the same person. Intriguing. Saffron Iguana, as they seem to fit the lack of involvement despite being present.
  9. Chameleon had been on after their vote, about 5 hours before I made mine iirc. Granted, Dragonfly had also been around without posting. And your main arguments didn't seem to be about non-contribution, only focused on the non-shifting votes. I agree that's something to look for, but there are many others who fit that category, including Pearl Chameleon, who I still think better fits the stable-vote-but-not-contributing category. And Magenta Albatross was still non-contributing (at least, they were until an hour ago). I understand that you weren't talking about it statistically, just that I was. It just feels like a trap to assume the Spiked won't do something unexpected. Following the optimal path is too much a paradox, because it becomes so predictable it becomes suboptimal. I do like the slip-up chances as a reason for your read, though. I hadn't considered that. Does this have any sway on your opinion on there being at least one Villager among Chameleon/Hyena/Ostrich? I do vaguely agree with Crocodile, in that a Spiked would follow through with a promise. But this is largely because Villagers have that expectation to be helpful as well. Regardless, I would much prefer to hear from @Pearl Chameleon themselves, and I feel decently confident in my vote from their Hyena vote being unreferenced. They haven't been on for 18 hours, though, and my read of Hyena is wavering from the vote on Kangaroo. There's also the point that I'd expect most people who would reach out to everybody, not to claim so in thread. But to be honest I haven't received other PMs that I myself haven't initiated, which means this is unlikely.
  10. Amethyst Scorpion (1): Sapphire Elephant Azure Mouse (1): Sage Kangaroo Charcoal Hyena (3): Cream Tuatara, Pearl Chameleon, Salmon Meerkat Chartreuse Penguin (2): Amethyst Scorpion, Onyx Flamingo Ivory Dragonfly (1): Emerald Falcon Magenta Albatross (1): Ivory Dragonfly Melon Dingo (2): Coral Swan, Indigo Weasel Plum Rhinoceros (1): Mauve Crocodile Saffron Iguana (1): Mint Heron Well. That's not what I expected to happen. But sometimes that's what you get to work with. Mauve Crocodile does seem rather go-getting, which is appreciated. But I wish to hear more from Charcoal Hyena before interfering. What others see as non-engagement, I see a form of questioning, of following a laid-down string that no one picked up. That, and Reverse's conversations with Aylia have been entertaining, if not enlightening. I'd prefer that they continue. But I have little more to add, and an explanation from their own mouth would be best. I, for one, am not sure what to think of Emerald Falcon. They posted their own analysis in a format easier to pick apart, but I'm finding parts of it quite easy to do so. Hyena, Ostrich, and Chameleon claiming to PM everyone is likely more indicative of the kind of player they are, rather than their own alignment - I agree that the three openly claiming to do so all being Spiked is statistically unlikely, but I'm struggling to find a non-statistical reason for such, and that leaves plenty of likely Spiked who can remain silent. I agree on Cream Tuatara seeming Village, but as above I don't really agree with their conclusions. Same with Mauve Crocodile. But the vote on Ivory Dragonfly seems strange. Yes, Ivory Dragonfly did not mention their vote on Magenta Albatross in their most recent post. That post was two words, and clearly not a direct interaction with anything game-related. That's its own reason to wonder, but Dragonfly's hardly alone in it. And Albatross has not posted yet, yes. Is that a good reason to change directions? Why should Dragonfly reflect on their vote of an individual who has contributed nothing, in a situation where nothing has changed? Compared to Pearl Chameleon, who voted Hyena (who had received a lot of discussion and changes) Dragonfly just seems more innocent to me. The other two notes are related to me, and the two voting for me - I'm uncertain whether or not Swan knew I posted before they voted me, and I've already expressed the extent of my opinion on Indigo Weasel. This is rather odd to read, but I like it. But it does feel again like a strange thing to focus on. Maybe I just lack self-Preservation. Another note is less related to Falcon and more to Pearl Chameleon. Despite their claim that they would PM everyone, and a message I sent them several hours ago, I have yet to hear from them. They even read my message. I'm curious to hear if Falcon or others have had actual communications, or if that promise remains undelivered. I'm not voting Emerald Falcon for any of this. Dissent is not a sign of opposing alignments, and they are one of the few who has contributed to have dissent to oppose. Multiple parts of their post seem village to me, even a few of the flaws. But I will vote Pearl Chameleon, for the reasons above.
  11. If my method of speech proves too difficult or irritating, I have other options. But for now, this will stay.
  12. Is this Dutch? My translators had difficulty identifying it, but they eventually settled in on German, part of a song.
  13. Reverse looked at the cooling slabs in the back of his shop with a hint of regret. They all looked fine, uniform, clear and all that. It just seemed soulless compared to his usual projects. This kind of industry was not something he was that used to. He liked making unique items, ones with flair. But he would make what was needed. And right now, Tyrian Falls needed windows. Reverse took a step back. The glass would be fine on its own, now. The best thing he could do would be to leave it alone. He'd heard the whispers of saboteurs around, but he imagined there were better things for them to try and break in this day and age. The mists wouldn't go through an open window much anyway, and attacking food or metal would be more disastrous. There was the possibility of hooligans breaking in, mimicking things they did not understand, but that was a risk of doing business sometimes. Better to lose a batch of windows than live life trying to find an activity more boring than watching paint dry. Besides, the glass was still quite hot. Anyone who messed with it would be in for a rather nasty surprise. So Reverse grabbed his coat and stepped into the town streets, heading for the town square, giving a few nods to those he knew. People came for him to advice from time to time. He wasn't entirely sure why. He was a glassblower, after all. Not a psychologist.
