The Sibling watches carefully as humans, singers, as other strange beings move through their halls. It has been so long since they have played host to a civilization, it is hard to understand the things they say and do now. Newly revealed to the world, and to the greater Cosmere, the Tower City of Urithiru and the Sibling who serves as it's mind and soul are a subject of great interest. Ancient secrets and lost powers attract the curious and powerful. Some who would study, and some who would steal. But as long as a person is inside their halls, it does not matter what power they can bring to bear. They can be stopped, if they can be remembered.

 

This is a simple, semi-experimental game that might end up being a little longer then most Quick Fixes. The only way to be removed from this game is to be Executed. There are no Kill abilities. Votes cast for Execution last forever though, and the Eliminators can remove some votes.

 

VOTING and EXECUTIONS

 

Everyone must vote every cycle. If you do not vote in a cycle, your vote will be cast for yourself.

 

The final vote count at the end of a cycle carries over to the next cycle, and the next, ad infinitum. This means that if 3 people vote for you on Cycle 1, and you are not executed, you will begin Cycle 2 with 3 votes on you. Votes cannot be changed after the end of the cycle. If Alice votes for Bob on cycle 1, that vote will be on Bob for the rest of the game, regardles of who Alice votes for on Cycle 2.

 

When a player dies, their votes are not removed nor erased. They continue to be considered for execution.

 

In the case of a Tied Execution, the players tied for most votes are all executed.

 

There will be a public Voting Spreadsheet so that everyone can easily see what votes have been made throughout the game. Players will still vote in the thread as normal.

 

PRIVATE MESSAGES

 

Private Messages are available, but are limited to only 1 on 1 messages, and must include the Impartial Moderator, and myself, the Game Master. You may make any number of PM's per cycle, and they last throughout the game.

 

FACTIONS and ALIGNMENTS

 

There are only two Factions and Alignments, the Citizens of Urithiru, and the Enemies of Urithiru.

Citizens of Urithiru
The typical Village Faction. They win when all of the Enemies are dead.

Enemies of Urithiru

The Enemies have a Google Doc to speak in private. The Enemies of Urithiru do not have a Kill action. Instead, they may target one player, and erase all votes they have made in the game, including this cycle. 

Once per Game, the Enemies may instead protect one player from execution. If they are the only one up for execution, the player with the second most votes will be executed instead. If they are in a tie, the others will be executed instead.

The Enemies win when the Citizens cannot win through perfect play. Generally, this means outnumbering the Citizens, but that does not guarantee victory.

 

HOUSEKEEPING

 

Quick Fix 75 will begin in exactly one Week, on Wednesday the 21st of May, 2025, at 2:00 PM UTC. Each Cycle will be one Turn, lasting for exactly 24 hours, from 2 PM to the following 2 PM.

 

Our Impartial Moderator will be @Araris Valerian.

The Sibling bids you welcome to Urithiru, and then checks their map. There is no Area in Urithiru that is Unknown to them.

The Sibling bids you welcome to Urithiru, and appreciates your lack of things to say. Not everything has to be a conversation.

Sign me up as well

The Sibling bids you welcome to Urithiru and seems sad that you didn't want to GM as them.

I join as Talinele

My first SE :)

 

Also, just to confirm, rollover is 2PM UTC? That is exactly midnight for me.

The Sibling bids you welcome to Urithiru, Talinele, first of your name, he who sleeps through rollover.

Yup, 2PM UTC, assuming I did the math right. Rollover is at the exact same time I posted this thread.

Maybe I'll just do a random one...

The Sibling bids you welcome to Urithiru, and offers you a repository of names.

That is correct! Distribution for this game isn't complicated, so I can take signups right up until the very last second.

I can't count that high. Is that more or less than 6?

There are overall 15 factors of 144, of which 2 and 3 are its prime factors. The Prime Factorization of 144 is 24 × 32.
Factors of 144: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 24, 36, 48, 72 and 144
Prime Factorization of 144: 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 = 24 × 32

Does that help?
