Mint Heron Posted January 6 Posted January 6 1 minute ago, Taupe Gecko said: Probably a coin flip or smth Vc says 5 so I wanna confirm is it a tie-breaker vote or something. I just want us to know if it involves vm or not because if it does, the complexion of the EoD actually changes here depending on your analysis of the trains.
Mint Heron Posted January 6 Posted January 6 1 minute ago, Taupe Gecko said: BUT BRO WE WON WHAT THE HECK Nah bruv we gotta keep our eyes on the ball and keep pressing on. Good opener, need to make sure we play a solid mid to endgame as well Very good D1 result, much stuff to analyse, thank you for calling for the tie, thank you @Oxblood Beagle for the Kanga, IDK how I feel about Axl now and need to go back, will note that I was actually going to and fro on Axl in terms of Axl's response though it was uh, a lot of rando thought vomit into thread in the last hour so I think people scrolled past, I just felt that Axl should be readable in some way from that response and was a bit frustrated with myself I didn't have a strong read on that basis. ... But holy hell man what a D1 wtf was this even
Magenta Albatross Posted January 6 Posted January 6 (edited) loll L that's hilarious now that means that we can prolly v/lean Weasel and Dragonfly (if VCs go backwards like that idk) or the first two people who hopped on her train for rn also, by that logic, theres at least one elim on the countertrain which is Flamingo, Heron, Dingo and Crocodile [DISCLAIMER] I have not read through EoD at all so this is likely very flawed and misconceived by my assumptions im gonna exclude Heron, cuz I really like what they're doing in anaylsis and engaging the game well so out of {dingo, flamingo, crocodile] turns out I also like crocodile going back lol crossing them off for now so between dingo and flamingo . . . based on Dingo's playing and their reaction to the flip, I'm going flamingo for rn. Prove me wrong @Onyx Flamingo Spoiler also random distro rant this distro is confusing me more and more I feel like Jo and TUM are purposely trying to do a weird distro, but elim seeker and no tineyes? kinda weird I don't like it lets just pray the MB rolls tineye soon realizing now just how flawed this anaylsis is oh well I might as well publish it and work on reads later lol EDITED TO ADD: this is wrong so very wrong I misread who got exed proof im really braindead pls disregard Edited January 7 by Magenta Albatross
Oxblood Beagle Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Levin stood there shocked. He had suspicion of the Kangaroo, who had come across as being opportunistic when she had accused the Dragonfly of being a saboteur, but still, he hadn't expected this outcome. There was a memory that rose to the surface of his mind. The details were murky, but in a past life, he had been an inquisitor and had led innocent men and women to the stake because he thought they had malice in their hearts. He regretted the person that he was and was afraid that his history would catch up to him. But, now was different. They had found one of the saboteur lurking in this vessel. Today, he felt relief and glee that things had turned out for the better. Certainly, there were statements and actions that could be recollected upon, from which they could find information that might point to the Kangaroo's comrades, but for a moment, Levin would relax and take in the fact that they were one step closer to securing the safety of their lives.

Spoiler this meme don't got to make sense to anyone just allow me it. i will be srs once i get sleep and i will rp more. edit: 1 hour ago, A Jo in the Bush said: Current vote count Violet Axolotl (6): Oxblood Beagle, Onyx Flamingo, Mint Heron, Melon Dingo, Mauve Crocodile, Ivory Dragonfly Scarlet Octopus (1): Saffron Iguana Sapphire Elephant (1): Sunburst Toucan Salmon Meerkat (2): Sapphire Elephant, Magenta Albatross Sage Kangaroo (2): Salmon Meerkat, Indigo Weasel Mauve Crocodile (1): Quartz Zebra Ivory Dragonfly (3): Violet Axolotl, Scarlet Octopus, Sage Kangaroo Indigo Weasel (1): Taupe Gecko Do we feel the Axl train is clean at those sizes btw? I'm trying to work out what we might think wrt comp off these and what Elim disposition would be. There's a certain argument Es tend to really hate EoDs when Villagers are being chaotic and wild and I think it's possible we might be able to read a bit more into the uh, chain of events that unfolded after this.

Scarlet Octopus Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Well, I certainly wasn't expecting that. But this does clear Dragonfly. So I was a little busy around rollover. So who are our top suspects? Chiji blinked. He had not expected the one other person on the ship who also worshipped ironeyes to be a saboteur. "Ironeyes will torment your soul forever traitor." He grumbled, upset that he'd been tricked by them.
Taupe Gecko Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Alright I think I'm somewhat recovered from that shock H.E.A.R.T.H spun in a crazed circle. Inside its head, thoughts raced in a frantic neverending stream. One rose above all others. They had DONE IT. The impossible had occured; a monster was dead, the loyal crew intact. It was almost too good to be true. But true it was. As true as the memories of fire and blood and war, of a girl and a ravine and a leap- memories? Me-mo-ries? That was a matter for a different time. For now, H.E.A.R.T.H exulted. It's wheels screeched as it barreled down corridors at full speed, but it didn't stop. Parts jangled and its arms flailed wildly, but it celebrated in its chaos. Until, at last, it slowed. Coming from inside the mess hall. Sounds of discussion. The place had become the defacto debate chamber, it seemed. Giving itself a second to cool down, H.E.A.R.T.H waited a minute and then pushed open the doors, entering the mostly empty hall. It was massive, yet there were only a couple faces seated in a tight circle. H.E.A.R.T.H wheeled over and joined them. 30 minutes ago, Magenta Albatross said: now that means that we can prolly v/lean Weasel and Dragonfly (if VCs go backwards like that idk) or the first two people who hopped on her train for rn "I'd actually disagree," H.E.A.R.T.H chimed.

If it's not included the spreadsheet will retroactively resurect players and kill other player. Basically there is a ghost player named Tiebreaker who only votes when there's a tie, Fantastic. So basically playa kanga went 1v1 with the Tiebreaker The idea there is a version of this game where people randomly come back to life and people randomly die is oddly...terrifying. anyway ok so: no vm - 3E world unlikely IMO (probably at least one V in DF and Axl due to thread dynamics after/with DF's claim - would also probably argue DF is V in most worlds with a slight asterisk given the thread control requirement) lack of vm therefore more likely because E!vm weren't online (there's an E/E world where they cbf because Axl and Kanga are both E so have a pref to let it rand, you could argue they would try to VM there to mislead us making us think it's a V/E pair. we can't fully read alignment here, but I'd say minimally Dingo, Gecko, myself, Beagle, and DF not e!vm. bit more obvious in some cases than others, but.)

Taupe Gecko Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Alright so I just checked and I'mma clear Heron, Beagle, and Dragonfly as all village Dang I love killing elims CONCRETE INFO IT'S AWESOME
Scarlet Octopus Posted January 6 Posted January 6 3 minutes ago, Taupe Gecko said: H.E.A.R.T.H turned to Chiji's sudden remarks. "Why would this clear Dragonfly?" "Because for most of the cycle they were voting each other, now it doesnt exclude an e/e combo, but I think it makes it less likely." Chiji remarked, explaining as if it was simple. "Ironeyes have me if they're both saboteur."

"Dragonfly and Kangaroo. I need to know who we're most suspicious of right now, and who we think the saboteurs are most likely to kill. We need to send them to Ironeyes before they send us."
Mint Heron Posted January 6 Posted January 6 I'm inclined to lean a very wary and weak V on Weasel for their analysis btw: 13 hours ago, Indigo Weasel said: This, makes sense. And implies a V!lean Meerkat, so I’m willing to let slide the E!lean from his earlier post. For Octopus as well, there’s some reasoning. I think Sage Kangaroo because while the timing is very weird with all three, Octopus has actual reasoning, and Meerkat calls out Kangaroo on it their lack of reasoning. While it is possible that all three are elims, and Meerkat was trying to make the situation less suspicious, in both cases Kangaroo is Elim and should be voted out. So it’s a fairly safe bet. (I did not mention it in thread, but Weasel's case analysis did persuade me that I might not have been tripping in my Kanga suspicions/wariness.) This is actually why I slightly trusted Weasel to SAN check me about how everyone was responding to the DF claim. Also Weasel's vote created this votestate: 13 hours ago, A Jo in the Bush said: Violet Axolotl (4): Onyx Flamingo, Mint Heron, Melon Dingo, Mauve Crocodile Sunburst Toucan (1): Ivory Dragonfly Sapphire Elephant (2): Sunburst Toucan, Oxblood Beagle Salmon Meerkat (2): Sapphire Elephant, Magenta Albatross Sage Kangaroo (3): Salmon Meerkat, Saffron Iguana, Indigo Weasel Mauve Crocodile (1): Quartz Zebra Ivory Dragonfly (4): Violet Axolotl, Taupe Gecko, Scarlet Octopus, Sage Kangaroo Weasel increased the Kanga train. In a V!DF world, Weasel can go on DF, or presumably on Ele or Meerkat (assuming at least one V in them.) In an Axl/DF V/V world, Weasel likely goes onto another V train because this just brings Kanga into contention with time in the cycle and two top trains/possible VM. It's weak because I respect Weasel's play. Sorry Weasel, it happens

Mint Heron Posted January 6 Posted January 6 3 minutes ago, Taupe Gecko said: "Where did Meerkat and Iguana go?" I'm curious too. I recall someone dropping a late EoD on them, and in particular @Ivory Dragonfly felt Ig sus I think? DF, any chance you can maybe re-explain it again? IDK if you need more substantive posts for it. (DO NOT RECOMMEND READING THIS THIS IS JUST REFERENCE FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO PUZZLE THROUGH THIS BECAUSE I DON'T GET IT.) 1 hour ago, Ivory Dragonfly said: Worked it out Saffron Iguana The elim They're claiming Particular lean Given the post DF is referencing, I...think DF is maybe accusing Ig of claiming E!something? E!Kandra? IDK, I am struggling with the post in question. I don't really understand the thought process (would probably not recommend breaking too much brain on it compared to looking at the votes.) 11 hours ago, Saffron Iguana said: "Well, I finally got the dog (and it's hair) disposed of. Unfortunately my job description doesn't allow me to do any more work today. I understand that it's my responsibility to do the cleaning in my allotted time, and I shall strive to be more productive on the morrow." Well, I was about to say that it was odd Dragonfly was leaving random poke votes when they are in the lead, but that's been resolved now. My vote on Sage Kanga has outlived its pokiness. In general I find Axolotl a more compelling option than Dragonfly, but I'm also interested in the Dragonfly voters. In particular, Scarlet Octo hasn't really given much more past their original vote, despite things changing a bit since then. Seems like a "I found an easy vote so I'll just sit on it" kinda attitude. Not that I'm one to talk, but what can you do.
