Seriously, y'all? I mean, I did sign up for this, but still...

You know, when I CoGMed LG112 I had a folder with like 55 inter Player PMs (I never read most of them)

Tshanin was on his way to Fickle when he recognized Dvalk's voice, and following it, heard the final snippets of the conversation. He opened his mouth, considered for a moment, and then stepped in.

"Excuse me," he said. He stretched out an open hand to the stranger. "I'm Tshanin, Vitiv's successor. I couldn't help but notice your discussion. Would you truly consider willingly giving up our freedom - our most valuable treasure, our lifeblood - for fear of uncertain waters ahead?" He tried not to let slip what he truly thought of the idea - cowardice - hiding it behind a smile that tried to say he was half-joking.

Yes

Like the fact that Wahr is more popular than me for some reason

"It is nice to meet you, Tshanin, My Name is Ralm and I am not saying we should just give up and join Odium, but I do fear what will become of Thaylenah when there are no friendly ports. We are a nation of seafarers and Traders after all"

Also Slayermann, how do you manage to be less popular than me, I have like less than a handfull of PMs

In terms of votes, I’m not quite sure who to vote yet. I’d say I’m looking at TUC and Mint the most atm. I’m also kind of looking at Myst but I’m hesitant to get him out C1 again. 

You having Myst and Mint in your list simultaneously intrigues me.

What about TUC do you find suspicious?

I tried to read all the PMs when I Co-GMed

I think I was fairly successful

I mean I wrote out a list and voted on Ink, they didn't all have bulleted reasons but I at least talked about my vote and I think it was decently clear that I'm just sheeping Illwei on TUC :P.

*goes to check said list*

Ahh I see

I also see it's another thing I'm not in

Also still curious on your thoughts on Mint, but take your time I wouldn't wanna read all this thread myself

Oh he that's you

Wait a bit

Not a complete list, to be fair :P. You can assume that I don't have formed reads on anyone I didn't mention.

idk why you pinged me for not sharing my reads if you didn't read my post but w/e lol

edit: @Araris Valerian I see you lurking, what's on your mind?

"Thaylenah will do what it has always done: endure. The sea will always remain open, to those who dare. No foreign decision will change that."

I don’t think theyre e/e but I think they’re both suspicious.

Mainly how hard he’s pushing the deposition. As I said I don’t think that’s a good idea (and others have also presented good arguments against it so I don't like that he’s continued on that track.

TUC

Why

Guys I just wanna say I love how this thread is constantly active

It’s gonna suck when I have to leave for the next six hours but hey

At this rate we’re gonna hit 20 pages in one cycle

[WhimsyIsTheBestShard]

Lord Falwin looks at the old man. He... Is openly saying we should depose the queen. "Does anyone know why he is here?"

He outright admitted that as elim he would push for deposition and then "saves it" by saying he wouldn't push for increasing loyalty when that actually seems like an elim thing to do. You wouldn't just say, we should depose the queen! You would have some sort of "would an elim really do this though?"

Did that come off too aggressive?

Pause how is that an elim thing to do

[Illwei]

This is currently where I am with the list of people I would want to Exe today. 

Hopper
Coco
Myst
Twinstorm
Grub**
Mint
Araris
Star
Alvron
Ink

Off the table forever:
Illwei (duh)

Off the table town:
TUC | Wahr | Archer* | Hoid | 

Off the table today: 
Keyfox (new) | Whimsy (new) | Asriel (new) |
Kaladin (new?) | Mat (returning) |

*I can't explain it I just wanna believe it. I mean, look at him!

--

Coco currently hasn't posted more than 1 post. I don't feel bad about that single post so far but until more content I have no good reason to take them out of the pool. 

Hopper is in the same boat as Coco, but with smaller pop ins iirc that don't really provide anything. 

Myst I don't have a strong feeling one way or another as of this moment. I mildly want to call them a villager but it's not strong enough with what's happened so far. I think they have been calm cool and collected, but their comparison with Hoid post doesn't sit totally right with me. IIRC people don't want to kill them anyways, as they were C1d last game. 

Twin Is a mild Elim lean in the first place from their first post. They come back to not really give any thoughts anyways, but the first post is a standard "I will be back, but I'm here so see I'm paying attention and care about the game!" kinda post. Not AI always but I do have a watch on them atm. 

Ink I think has basically the same thing, the non-post posts. the most engaged was his responses to Mat, which I find interesting with Mat voting on him. He comments on himself (past games), Mech (Talk with Mat), and then asks the GMs a question. While he does sound pretty comfortable in thread, this isn't enough right now for me. 

Mint is someone who I really wanna hear more from those voting/suspecting them. I'll read through again but I don't quite follow the reasoning. I don't have enough that I want to place them in my Village reads, but I'm also not sure they belong on the kill list as of this moment. 

 

Does anyone have any thoughts to add on to this? To counter to this?

Kaladin (new?)

He’s not new just back after a hiatus, he might be older than me

[WhimsyIsTheBestShard]

You took that out of context. I meant that they would have something to make pushing for deposition less suspicious. It is only C1 but I still think that deposing the queen is objectively better for the elim.

Edit: Plus, if we sort of "normalize" it as an advantage it then let's an elim depose without being immediately suspicious

Ahh

@Jo and the Bush?

Ive never made a group PM in SE before, but if I can I’d want to try it

[Illwei]

I asked, they are allowed. He said he would regret it. but that they are allowed. 

Don't forget he asked people to ping him in PMs rather than thread.

I am definitely making one then. Just need to decide who to put in it

[|TJ| he/him]

Friendly reminder that you have an IM available to you at all times! Please reach out to me if you feel uncomfortable with anything that's being said at any point in the game! Essentially, you can ping or PM me for any possible reason you can think of, except anything related to the game rules. That's Jo's job :P. 

Happy hunting!
