Frustration Posted October 12, 2023 Report Share Posted October 12, 2023 1 minute ago, Matrim's Dice said: Why did you vote DeTess Also Mark I’ll complain at Szeth This comment On 10/9/2023 at 1:29 AM, DeTess said: I don't like this comment. It seems intended to discourage vanillagers from using the action they have, which in turn nerfs any village mages. Meanwhile, any elim mages will have built in support from any vanillas in their team. For now, experience. Which was in reply to comments about why we should not pass magic around as it might go to an elim, which I can only see as encouraging such actions.

Mark IV Posted October 12, 2023 Report Share Posted October 12, 2023 19 minutes ago, Matrim's Dice said: Also Mark I’ll complain at Szeth Very well, I'll put in my complaint now. If I read the rules correctly, our complaints should be rearmed by D3 anyway, so I'd be willing to risk it, especially given Szeth's last post. I hope it's not the wrong thing to do, but I have a hunch it's probably not. 17 minutes ago, Frustration said: Which was in reply to comments about why we should not pass magic around as it might go to an elim, which I can only see as encouraging such actions. Honestly, this feels more like the same thing as what DeTess did - DeTess isn't calling anyone to stop or continue passing investiture. They're commenting more on Exp's motives. They even vote on Exp in the same post. It's a fine distinction, but essentially, both your post and DeTess's post call out the person saying the thing, and don't necessarily call for enforcing/acting against the thing itself. I thought this made you more suspicious in my eyes, but looking back, you've always been of the opinion that villagers need to be more careful of passing investiture, at the very least. And if I believe DeTess is village now, then clearly villagers are liable to commit the "fallacy" as well, so it's NAI at best. I'm not entirely happy with my Araris vote given their lack of effort to get it off them when there's two other votes on them and given the fact that I don't see any other votes picking up steam. But I'm not sure where I should put my vote otherwise. It's been 2 whole cycles, so if the elims have vote manip, they're likely to use it to cause chaos anyway, so it'd be better to have a strong lead in the votes than a flimsy tie. --------------------------- 5 min later: Okay, you know what Araris , Archer . There's little more than a gut feeling here, but I just wanna try it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat Posted October 12, 2023 Report Share Posted October 12, 2023 Archer is my most confident village read, for what it's worth. Bad kill imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archer Posted October 12, 2023 Report Share Posted October 12, 2023 TKN Szeth Lowkey using 'willing to burn their complaint card on a longshot' to be a sign of villageness, so good vibes from Mark. I'm not sure why we haven't seen a coordinated kill from the elims using complaints yet, but I expect them to save their complaints for it. Interestingly, that Szeth post didn't have emojis. Again, I'm fine if it comes down to Szeth 1st, me 2nd and me probably getting the chop if the exe skips the GM. I just want to see what happens. Maybe it let's us enter the real life portion of the game, who knows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's vote GM okay Szeth_Pancakes Then elims won't have anyone to complain to °•° 4 hours ago, Mark IV said: What gives you that gut read, if you could elaborate? Is that something you thought of too, or are you agreeing with me about the Exp train? Hmm, makes me think it might be a good idea to complain at the GM? Or maybe even vote? The feeling's mutual, mate. Idk why, I'm just trying to find anything, but everything feels NAI, so far. Unless a GM lynch is specifically in some sort of win condition for someone. But yeah, I think I agree I think it's more likely Archer's just curious (as a villager or as elim, could be either) Anyone wanna complain at the GM? @Aeoryi? I must keep my streak of never submitting an action. Maybe. Apparently there's 1 complaint already on szetha anyway Also don't kill me please I don't deserve to die yet I haven't dones anything wrong don't kill me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Szeth_Pancakes Posted October 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2023 (edited) LG97 Night Two: Pierced Through the Heart (But Never Killed) One week ago…? The Carnation Floral laughs. You’re sitting across from him, at a different table in the same room. One of his eyes is missing, black, malodorous liquid spilling from the wound down his face, dripping from his chin onto the table. It doesn’t seem to bother him. “You think you’re so clever, don’t you, with your little complaints?” he asks. “Sure. You hurt me.” He points to his empty eye socket. “But you can’t kill me. Not that easily, anyway.” He grins. “I’m a monster on the hill,” he sings. “Too big to hang out, slowly lurching toward your favorite city. Pierced through the heart… but never killed.” He speaks the last part, in a raspy baritone that sends a chill down your spine. “Oh, and… congrats! You killed another one of your friends,” he says, returning to his usual singsong tenor. “Ar– Aschu here–” he snaps his fingers, and you see Aschu’s broken body, lying dead-eyed, slumped against the trunk of a tree– “was taken by the Constables. He’s dead because of you, you know. Think about that for a second: How are you better than me? Your killing is no more justified than mine. What does it matter that you’re trying to stop me? You’ve caused just as much damage.” Finished with his monologue, he sits back, forming a tent with his fingers. “Now: back to your game.” ------------ Vote Count: Araris (1): DeTess TKN (1): Matrim DeTess (1): Frustration Archer (3): Stink, TKN, Mark Szeth_Pancakes (2): Archer, Aeoryi Aeoryi (1): Araris *** Archer was executed!

Feels like I played for the elims regardless of whether I was on their team Is the GM immune to complaints? I mean, the RP says "one week ago", so clearly the floral is still alive in current time, yes?

That probably isn't the right term so I'm happy to correct it if there's a better one but I like just woke up and haven't had my morning tea yet so apologies if this seems a tad aggressive or w/e I'm not looking at TKN in a good light either mind but where's all this coming from did you have like a real nice PM with Archer 'cause I'd understand that always sucks to see a PM buddy go Also also I already explained why I voted Archer I know it wasn't in the post where I did vote on Archer but it is in the thread so /shrug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat Posted October 13, 2023 Report Share Posted October 13, 2023 I did have a PM with him but it was more that he was a decently obvious active villager who I did have in my top tier village reads the whole game I understand that this isn’t a reason you really can sympathize with if you didn’t share the reads but I was sure enough and mentioned it enough times that it felt avoidable considering the votes that were cast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aeoryi Posted October 13, 2023 Report Share Posted October 13, 2023 (edited) The thing is about Exlo is that no one really has any good leads, or really any sort of momentum. So unless: A) people start talking, and people get either V!read or E!read B. idk a scanner or something C) We get lucky and hit an Elim Happens we're basically hopeless 1 hour ago, The Known Novel said: I most likely would have just unvoted Archer.
