Yeah I guess

Yeah probably one of the worst cases of bad fortune or unforgiving targeting I've seen in all my years of SE. 

 

But now that you're cleared, do you have any insights about who the bad guys are?

Yeah, actually when I died, an elim PMed me the names of all the elims because they thought I was too inactive to notice.

No, I have genuinely been to inactive to play... or read...

Wow I feel hurt. I was killed in both games???

Well now I feel validated for being inactive. Although I really wasn't doing anything, so I guess that was a valid move.

Still, bitter.

Yeah uhh sorry 'bout that 

Alright guys my hand has been forced

Momentous RP is on the way

We’ve been working under the assumption that there’s a mole this whole time.

“We”? Pseudo Elim claim?

Dusk fell outside the cave.

Evinir ate his last bite of the sandwich, and stepped up. In the last hours, he had examined every corner of the ancient Spiked altar, one of the few of its kind throughout the Cosmere. He walked over to the slab of stone that marked its core. Running a finger over it, he felt the scratches and scars etched into its surface, and if he closed his eyes, he could hear the screams of those whose pain had been reaped here.

The squab chirped from its makeshift nest, and Evinir returned to the present. He had work to do. By the light of the torches, he pulled a spanreed out of his satchel, placed it to a side. His back ached as he reached down. Evinir grimaced, then reached for his shirt and slowly lifted it. As the cold air hit his bare skin, he gasped, and tossed the shirt into a corner. It fell still in a pile. He had been sweating. Evinir closed his eyes, took a deep breath, clenched his fists. Then he pulled something else out of his satchel. His breath quickened. He placed his empty hand on the slab.

Then he positioned the spike, and slammed the hammer down. The clang rung out in the echo chamber of the cavern. Somewhere, the squab cried out. Evinir did not scream. 

The pain was a friend now.

As the blood ran down his trembling arm, as the taste of blood filled his mouth, he repeated a single phrase in his mind, a mantra. It was all he had left.

Endure.

Uh, no. A collective “we” meaning everyone. Unless you haven’t been working under that assumption for some reason?

Okay no one cares about this I’m kinda disappointed in y’all

I think they’re all either freaking out in their heads, haven’t noticed it yet, or haven’t been online to see it.

I’m sure someone is in a doc right now doing all sorts of theorizing about how this changes everything

[StrikerEZ he/him]

I think I'm lost in the sauce. But I like the Myst exe. I keep flip-flopping on them. I do think TJ is right that we flip them now, before a potential MetaElim PseudoGM has the chance to change their PseudoRole to match the claim. If Myst flips Coinshot here, then we vote Myst out in the next MetaCycle. If they flip Lurcher, we vote out either Verdance or TJ in the next MetaCycle.

I think I'm fine not voting here myself because we have a two point lead (would take five Investiture to get Verdance exed over Myst, and for Reasons™ I am fairly confident no one has that much) on the Myst exe and I don't want to make it harder for us to exe who we want to in the next MetaCycle. Sorry Myst, but I think this makes the most sense here.

[Hoid Slayer He/Him]

Alright since no one is going crazy about my RP (thanks for the support, Myst, it means a lot) I'm just gonna be straight up

I am pseudo-elim

Myst was our C1 NK

I did consider the possibility that it was a fellow elim that blew up Scadrial, and have pretty much discarded it

Additionally, Myst has been seeming extremely village to me in our PMs

If he is evil, then he has me the hardest pocketed one can be

And I would very much not like to kill him here, thank you very much

Well, 4 would make it 50/50 plus I’m sure someone has vote manip. Idk, it highly depends on what other people decide to do.

I legit just don’t see Myst being elim his behavior doesn’t line up with that so for that reason Striker attacking him here does not actually make the most sense

I actually decently like Striker and I get his reasoning

The Coinshot debate is genuinely concerning

Whoever it was that claimed someone told them Myst was Coinshot, or whoever actually made the claim, are you willing to reveal yourself and testify?

Myst, are you willing tl confide in us your real role if you are not Coinshot?

So far the only thing I have against striker is his vote psuedo day 1

I am a lurcher

[Verdance he/him]

Verdance the human being [Ver] sits back in his beanbag. “I… can’t… spell… competensy”, he types. 

Meanwhile, [Avatar Verdance] is engaged in an epic swordfight with a revived Cricket Chaisler. Since Cricket is dead, though, this is not canon, and you do not get to see it. It would probably be bored anyway.

Ver stares at whatever Verdance typed in the Shard for him, questioning his own sanity.What is he talking about? Time to turn the phone off.

Does my ability let me see what Myst is

can i do that

Unless the elims change your role

maybe they will change it, or, here’s a iseful idea-maybe they will try to get more coinshots to control the outcome of the game

if they can get enough coinshots they can basically win
