Snipexe Posted July 10, 2019 Report Share Posted July 10, 2019 To let people know, I’ve submitted an action to grab chalk, so I would be part of those 4 Devotary mentioned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Araris Valerian Posted July 10, 2019 Report Share Posted July 10, 2019 It might make more sense for people planning to defend the camp to do the same as xino's contact (rather than reveal publicly, as Snipexe just did), to message another person who can reveal to the thread. That way the elims have a lower chance of being able to Invigorate the defenses. It would be easy to communicate through several different people, so that everyone isn't letting the elims know who to roleblock. For example, if someone else were to do the same thing, then they would want to tell someone besides xino. It would also make the defenders a bit more accountable to everyone else.

Shqueeves Posted July 10, 2019 Report Share Posted July 10, 2019 Sorry for not posting earlier. I'm here now. Everyone who is doing a LoW please find a way to inform the thread so that way we avoid wasting our chalk. Right now we only need whoever contacted Xino, but we may need someone else to add one tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sart Posted July 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2019 3 hours ago, Devotary of Spontaneity said: We seem committed to the idea of lynching an inactive then. @Sart, is it possible to grab the items of the player who is lynched today? If four different players go for chalk, would the fourth one get the chalk dropped by the player who gets lynched? First off, there's only 2 chalk available, so 4 players definitely aren't getting chalk today. To answer the question though, no, you cannot pickup the items of a player who just died. They will become available in the next turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ookla-son-son-Ventyl Posted July 10, 2019 Report Share Posted July 10, 2019 Hello, sorry I haven’t been on for all of this beginning stuff. As Striker mentioned our grandpa is in the hospital and I’ve spent the last two days visiting him, and we’ve also started moving today. I will still be able to play this game so don’t worry. Anyways, I personally like the idea of getting one person who we can all agree on are likely village to get the gun every day if they’d be willing to do so, and if we see more kills than would be possible with the amount of kills in the game we could possibly catch an elim. Though, I’d recommend that the person who grabs it doesn’t use it, unless we have a hard elim read on someone. As a couple of people have already pointed out, the bribe will be more useful near the end of the game. Lines of making and crabs will also become more useful after we get one elim dead, but will still be useful no matter what. @Sart if we use our piece of chalk to make a line, will it disappear or does it have multiple uses, considering it’s a piece of chalk? I’ll poke vote StrikerEZ for no reason other than that he is my brother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone that the Elims know the ID of and they will become a target. The Elims will also have roleblocks so if we vote and decide that a Gun needs to be used, it can simply be blocked. I would instead consider the option of one person getting a Gun and passing it to another secret person for either holding or using to kill inactives/high level suspects. The Elims won't know who to target to block the kill but it does come with the downside of it being easier for an Elim getting their hands on a Gun.

Sart Posted July 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 The Camp took stock of its situation, and set to work. Many items were distributed among the survivors while they introduced themselves. Caden noticed something was amiss though. Rick was nowhere to be found. The base was a series of small caves, and so Caden set off spelunking. He was horrified by what he found. Rick's lifeless body was sprawled out in a side cavern, resting in a pool of blood. Wild chalklings were already feasting on the corpse. Some of the swarm noticed Caden. He ran away and screamed, "Guys, we need to get out of here!" Vote Count: Cadmium Compounder (1): Butt Ad Venture Ventyl (1): Araris Valerian Dr. Dapper (1): Cadmium Compounder StrikerEZ (1): Ventyl Dr. Dapper was lynched. He was a Rithmatist. Items Taken: Spoiler Snipexe took a Piece of Chalk Cadmium Compounder took a Bribe Devotary of Spontaneity took a Lantern Araris Valerian took a Lantern Shqueeves took a Lantern Butt Ad Venture took a Spring-Powered Crab Elandera took a Spring-Powered Crab Alvron took a Gun!

StrikerEZ Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 I'm so sorry I forgot to get back on the Shard today. It just completely slipped my mind, even though I wasn't as busy today as I thought I'd be. Anyway, I just finished getting caught up on what happened D1, and I'm not quite sure what to make of the lynch. I would think that, if one of the Forgotten had been in danger of being lynched, then there would've been more votes on another player to protect the Forgotten. Of course, the Forgotten also could've been trying to avoid suspicion by doing that. Or, we could've gotten really unlucky and happened to put 4 Rithmatists in danger of dying, so the Forgotten didn't even need to vote (or voted on one of the Rithmatists). Anyway, I still need to go familiarize myself with the rules again, as I'm not quite sure I understand everyone's discussions of the game mechanics yet.

CadCom Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 Hey all! we've got about 10-12 hours left, and we still don't have two people claiming to be protecting the camp. Just One so far, and only Xino knows the identity of that person. In no way do I want to become a mayor-type role, but if anyone is interested in protecting tonight, go ahead and reach out to me(or someone else that you trust) and let them know, so they can let the thread know. Two people is the bare minimum that we need. Three people would keep us safe if the elims got lucky with a block attempt, but I don't think that there's any need to have more than 3. Anyway, I'll try to get up a player analysis. If not tonight, then tomorrow during the day cycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CadCom Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 Sorry about the double-post, but it's been about 4 hours, and this is significantly new information, that I want people to be able to see it easier. I've had someone reach out to me stating that they would also be willing to do a Line of Warding as well. Actually, I've had a couple people reach out, so confirmed with one person to place the Line of Warding, and I want all of your thoughts to determine whether or not we will need the third person for safety reasons or not.

Snipexe Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 Oh, I think we definitely do, just to confirm that the camp won’t be over run night one, which would be unfortunate. There’s a decently high probability that one of those who have reached out is an elim, and therefore can’t be trusted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devotary of Spontaneity Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 Right now, we have a theoretical two Lines of Warding, and four people we can blame if things go wrong(Xino, Cadcom, Xino's 'contact', one of CadCom's two 'contacts'). @xinoehp512, @Cadmium Compounder, it might be worthwhile if you post the names of your contacts ~30 seconds before rollover, in case one of you dies. The disadvantage is a successful protection means we've outed people who don't have chalk anymore, but it does prevent a scenario where an elim offers to draw a Line of Warding, then kills you so nobody finds out who they were. It also stops elim!Xino and/or elim!CadCom from making up a contact who doesn't exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lumgol Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 I already submitted an action other than protecting the camp, but I can switch it if no one else protects the camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrikerEZ Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 @Lumgol It might be best if you leave decision about whether or not you’ll be protecting the camp to yourself. That way, if you’re village, the elims will be less likely to roleblock you since they’d be uncertain if you actually performed an action or not. It’d be a much safer bet for them to attempt to find out the identity of one of CadCom’s or Xino’s contacts, who they know are (supposedly) submitting an action to do a LoW. As for myself, I will also leave my decision as to whether or not I will protect the camp ambiguous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sart Posted July 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2019 (edited) The camp made steady progress through the Night, inching ever closer to the Tower. Brodie noticed something odd in the distance. Eager to investigate, he ran off ahead of the group. He was surprised to discover a small log cabin nestled in the middle of the woods. Amazed at finding civilization this far into the wilds, he entered the cabin. Papers filled with mad scribbling littered every inch of the place. He picked one up, trying to decipher it. Scrawled on the paper, were notes on theoretical Rithmatics. Incredibly, it detailed two new Lines of Rithmatics. How was that even possible? And what other knowledge was contained in this place? Brodie turned around, eager to report back, but standing in the doorway was a shadowy figure. Brodie was startled, but then relaxed as he realized that it was one of the others. "You'll never believe..." Brodie was interrupted mid-sentence. The other man had thrown a knife into Brodie's chest. Brodie tried to stay on his feet, but a second knife to the head sealed his fate. The Forgotten looked around the room. The secrets in here were dangerous. If he had the chance, he would have burned this place to the ground. Unfortunately, the others weren't much farther behind. Still, he wasn't too concerned. The Forgotten would make sure the knowledge here never left the group. Camp Supply: Hide contents 4 Pieces of Chalk 1 Lantern 1 Spring-Powered Crab 1 Map 1 Book of the Sentry 1 Book of the Guardian 1 Book of the Duelist 1 Book of the Artist 1 Book of the Silencer 1 Book of the Bouncer Known Items: Hide contents Piece of Chalk (One-use, Day or Night): Do one of the following: Line of Warding: Add one to the Camp’s Defense (Night) Line of Forbiddance: Protect a player from up to one attack.
