Outside of the first two or three cycles, I haven't been active enough to exert any influence over the votes and have mostly been listening to what others proposed should be the correct vote. They would much rather recruit someone who has more sway 3. I did try to make an effort to get the meta elims out post Pseudo Cycle? Here is me saying we should vote Xino four cycles ago Here is me trying to reconsider that Star might not be the right vote Although unsuccessful, I have been trying to help out with finding the meta elims It is between the two of you and I'm unsure not which it is. Hoid I could see since he seems like he could be closer to the people in the elim group? Especially that he started off as a pseudo elim as well. Araris I could also see since he has had a lot of sway over the votes and had a lot of trust built from getting out elims before the convert would happen Also Hoid, yes I was not able to read what you said, but I was already leaning voting Xino regardless since I was on that train of thought several cycles ago and by process of elimination, once we've kept axing everyone in the pseudo elim group, it made even more sense for it to be Xino I am okay with shortening it to 24 hrs, but since idk if either of you will be back tonight, might be better to make it 36 hrs instead, so I can have time to hear out both of you and give time for Hoid /Araris to respond to my post Is this saying yes to 24 hours?

We know the latest the conversion could have happened is the cycle where we exed Qian (metacycle 6), since xino was inactive for metacycles 7 and 8, but there was a NK on metacycle 8. And there wasn't one on metacycle 7. So whoever the convert is, they + xino didn't send in a kill on metacycle 7. 45 minutes ago, Divergent said: 1.

The three of us have all been active, so that doesn't help sort things out here 2. If I had been an original elim, the consideration for converting you would be a stealth thing, rather than thread control. The elims were pretty exposed after the pseudogame ended (coco+Qian+mole), so they could have just been concerned with survival 3. You could have been converted after going after xino That's mostly to say that you don't have a foolproof alibi. The main thing in your favor, at least in my eyes, is that you voted for xino pretty easily last cycle, in contrast with Hoid, who was trying to get me killed all day against solid evidence and without any good reasoning of his own.

Hoid Slayer He/Him Posted June 25 Posted June 25 (edited) The Shard remained. Though that didn't bring Hoid much relief, it did bring him hope. Of course, both Araris and Dive were against him here, so he didn't know how much he could believe that hope. For now, however, he was concerned with something else. Reading. When he had awoken to find the truth about Xino, he had also found a new PM in his inbox. The sender of this one was clear. TAUPE GECKO. Why the roleplay characters had sent him a message, he didn't know. But curious nonetheless, he had opened it. Contained in it were nothing but links. They led to posts. His posts. Hoid read: On 4/16/2025 at 7:50 PM, Hoid Slayer said: The clock was the first to break the silence. Evinir felt the urge to bury his head in his hands, but this time, he resisted. He had shoved his emotions aside since his previous tirade. Now, he felt… nothing. Only coldness. The mystery was like a game of Colorchess. The Assembly, the Followers. Starkeeper, the Priest. Evinir had spoken in private to many of the pieces. His move was made. All he could do was wait. Evinir was not usually one to pray. But in this moment, in that room, alone with Elydir, a man he had bet his entire plot on, he prayed. The silence grew between the two diplomats. Evinir felt like something should break it. Come in, and snap the tension, revealing all the events of the past week to be a dream. A trick. Anything but what they were. Painfully, irrevocably real. Evinir knew he might not last past this day. The old him would have run away long ago, fleeing to a neighboring nation. But he knew that if the plan he had so carefully put into place had any chance of succeeding, he had to stay. Even if that meant greeting death itself with open arms. The clock ticked again, and Evinir didn’t flinch as the door slammed open. A pair of servants rushed past, then left them alone again. The night grew, nearing its climax. And Evinir waited. He fingered the knife hidden in the coils of his cloak. Alone in this room with a man he was betting his life on, he knew they would not both make it out alive. Perhaps neither of them would. It would all be over soon. The clock struck again. By now, the moon was high in the sky. Yes, it would all be over very, very soon. ”Goodbye, Elydir.” Hoid felt the dampness again on his cheek. Again, he shut his computer. Unlike Evinir, Hoid had no master plot. He felt like something should come in, disrupt the shadowless light in the guest bedroom. Snap the tension, revealing all the events of the past week to be a dream. A trick. Anything other than what they were. Painfully, irrevocably real. And all of a sudden, the full weight of what was happening fell on him. These beings were alive. Thoughts, turned into words, become now capable of thought and writing of their own. The implications... he couldn't even think of the implications. As he lay on the bed, Hoid began to see a new angle to the whole situation. An angle that could, perhaps, grant him some measure of relief. And some measure of fear as well. Perhaps there was something glorious in what they had done. It was the only consolation he could find. He thought again of the tab that remained open next to the Shard on his computer, the document, carefully prepared. It would indeed all be over very, very soon. "Goodbye, Evinir." Edited June 25 by Hoid Slayer

Ohh and yeah I do not see why the elims would have withheld their conversion for that long either And yup, if I were elim with Xino, I could have won last cycle instead of trying to get to an F3 I think it is just Hoid Slayer. I do not see it much of a possibility either for Araris to go after Xino when the game is that close to being in his hands
Araris Valerian he/him Posted June 25 Posted June 25 22 minutes ago, Hoid Slayer said: I assume you won't back me here? Yeah, I think I'm going to go with my first impression here, which is you as the last elim. I could spend a lot of time second-guessing that, but I don't think it's worthwhile.

The Unknown Character he/him Posted June 25 Author Posted June 25 This cycle has officially been shortened! @Hoid Slayer, @Divergent, @Araris Valerian, it will end in a bit over 3 hours

So the fact that you didn’t consider that suggests Hoids not Elim

|TJ| he/him Posted June 25 Posted June 25 If Araris needs any reassurance, I still think it's Hoid Slayer. Even discount the desperation of this cycle, his behaviour from last cycle with the reading of everyone and very strongly casing anti-xino trying to get others on his side, reads evil. If it's not him, I actually think it's Araris - in this case the first missed kill was just elims forgetting the kill and the second missed kill would be the Araris conversion. Last cycle signs be Araris hellbussing to ensure a win at F3.
