Mat he/him Posted June 15, 2024 Posted June 15, 2024 Outing the teams turns this into a logistics game rather than a mind game, which is a choice we could make. I don’t wanna play a logistics game though, I signed up for a mind game

Individual Epics may have their own wincons. Not much reason to hunt for them when we’ve got no clue what they are.
Aeoryi she/her Posted June 15, 2024 Posted June 15, 2024 What I mean is that we should treat independent epics as the elims

I don’t wanna play a logistics game though, I signed up for a mind game Mech-like stuff makes my head hurt, so fair enough. I did have another thought (shocking, I know): faking connections is pretty hard this game because it's not like e!person A can claim town and pretend to be friends with person A2 (teehee) outside their faction because person A2 KNOWS who is in their faction. So like ??? this game actually confuses me so much. Like how is an Independent Epic going to save themselves against a full team? This is why you load in as a squad, never solo queue. Edit: Another thought. How would you even go about figuring out pairing and such in thread, because I can't read my teammates then. If I call Teammate A paired with person A2, person A2 literally knows I'm lying. There's just too much TMI in this game. 1 hour ago, Ashbringer said: Not necessarily.

We should be - all teams benefit from killing off the solos. Edited June 15, 2024 by Aeternum revenge A's :P

There's just too much TMI in this game. I mean, that can end up true in normal games too If you're guessing, there's always the chance that you pick two people on the same faction or in different factions. So A2 would know that you're wrong, but not that you're intentionally placing them with a teammate vs just guessing and being wrong. 35 minutes ago, Aeternum said: Spoken like an Independent Epic. We should be - all teams benefit from killing off the solos. ... you know, I thought Independents had their own hidden wincons, not a faction-in-one. But I stand by it. For one thing, it kinda sucks to get targeted by people you could theoretically win alongside. For another, you can win alongside them - unlike other teams, who people seem to be striking deals with already. Plus, even if it was solely beneficial to not have Independents around... they're around. And they've got plenty of Marks to go around.

And they've got plenty of Marks to go around. They can Mark once or take three other actions. Jerk move would be to redirect them when they claim, which means them claiming does put them in a position of relatively reduced power. You could as a faction just cut a deal but I guess trust issues.
Kasimir he/him Posted June 15, 2024 Posted June 15, 2024 The Arsonist flicked the wheel of the Zippo lighter, and watched as sparks turned to flame. Far as he was concerned, most problems could be solved by a jerrycan of gasoline and a lighter. Especially Reckoner-sized ones. 'Course, the way he saw it, there wasn't much benefit in working for Mindstorm, either. Giving the survivors the 'honour' of becoming his right hand men, would he? He flicked the lighter again, but this time, there was no answering sparks, no flame. The Arsonist glared at it, and abruptly, the entire lighter was engulfed in fire. He shook out his hand, letting the flames dance with the motion. 10 hours ago, Aeternum said: Spoken like an Independent Epic. We should be - all teams benefit from killing off the solos. There wasn't much sense in going in alone, the Arsonist thought. Sure, he could barely stand some of his gang these days, but you screwed around and found out, what with the other Epic gangs, the Reckoners, and Mindstorm. You had to be pretty tough and capable of taking a hit, but the way the Arsonist saw it, it was the sort of thing some of those scum would want, as though they thought you were a tyro—get everyone else to waste their fuel flaming the lone wolves, then take them out in the process and get crowned king of the ashes. Yeah, you didn't need to provoke anyone. Burning the solos looked good because you didn't antagonise anyone. But everyone knew everyone was out to get each other. Hell, sometimes, even your own gang was about as much help as a piece of tissue paper in an inferno. 8 hours ago, Mat said: RoyalBeeMage The Dwarf's voice echoed in the hush that had fallen. The Arsonist couldn't decide whether it was because he'd hit a good target, or people were too terrified to contest the hit. Of course, who you were willing to see hit was itself telling, so there was that. "Helios, was it?" the Arsonist smirked. "Well, the sun's a great big ball of fire, and the way I see it, there's only one god of fire in town." [OOC: RoyalBeeMage] He lobbed the fire at the wall, and smiled as the flames spread, carpeting the surface of the concrete. 2

CadCom he/him Posted June 15, 2024 Posted June 15, 2024 Ok quick vote count: TUO (1): Aeternum Sart (1): CadCom (me) RBM (3): Mat, Kas, TUA. So currently RBM is going to be marked. 49 minutes ago, Aeternum said: @RoyalBeeMage wake up before they murder you! This seems like it wouldn't be a teammate tagging their teammate, but only because it would be too obvious. But that also means it could be. Classic IKYK (I think I'm using that right) --- I'll try to add more thoughts later. I'm doing several projects simultaneously irl, so its a busy weekend for me.

Ashbringer he/him Posted June 15, 2024 Posted June 15, 2024 If they really wanted to be secretive about it, they could just use a PM. But maybe Aeternum knows that. Let the IKYK’s flow 1
