Silver continued in a rapid dialogue. @Flash EDIT: I would still like to know why I was roleblocked D1... Probably just random. I mean most roles (in any game) revolve around either the lynch (vote nullify, vote redirect, etc) or the kill (protect, kill, etc). Without all of that, really, only a scan works. A roleblock probably just hit you randomly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"This pistol is another example of my rail gun technique. It's not completely magnetically launched like the big one I showed you earlier, but it reduces the amount of gunpowder to launch the ammunition. It also acts as a more efficient form of rifling, making this pistol easier to shoot, and much more accurate. I always carry one myself. Oh, and here is the specialized ammunition." Impulse smiled. Already things were going well. BOOM! And impulse disappeared with a gust of wind, off to visit the gun tycoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elithanathile Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 "...You just brought a knife to a gunfight." Falchion pointed a finger at cyborg-manguy, an intent look on his face. "Okay, that? That was rude." He hefted the longsword with his free hand, shaking it slightly. "See this? This is called a sword. Say it with me, okay? Sw. Ord. Knives have nothing on this beauty of ancient and modern craftsmanship! And who likes guns anyway! They're like a Nora, any old guy, (case in point)" he mumbles, not even trying to hide it, "can just pick one up and use it to kill someone! And that's not justice at all!" Making more dramatic hand gestures, the Epic continued, now getting into full-on rant mode. "Now a sword takes skill. If you use a sword that means that you've trained for years, both your mind and body to handle the rigors of combat against your opponent. You've trained, sweated, and bled for the right, the honor to wield a blade. Swords have been an icon, a symbol for centuries. There are entire legends dedicated to swords and the people who wield them." Falchion took a step towards droidman, viciously pointing his finger. "Ever heard of King Arthur? Susanoo? Charlemagne, Roland, Siegfried, Atilla, Masamune, Manannan?" He took a second look at the man and the woman standing at the end of the corridor. "Probably not, huh." Shaking his head in disappointment, he turned to leave. "Come back when you've got some respect for that fancy hand of yours instead of treating it like a toy." In a split second he dropped from a portal above the metal man, seamlessly completing his statement. "Or you can just die now." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the winter system Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 (edited) The thing is, the main thread has no idea who we're even trying to lynch. I'd feel a lot more comfortable lynching someone than just having a random kill. I mean, what if randomness ends up killing someone who's first game it is, like cole? That's not fair. Edit: Elith, can the protection role you got gifted protect you from the lynch? Because if so, you could use it on yourself and we could lynch you so nobody dies before we have reason to kill someone.

Elithanathile Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 Their death will probably give us more information though, so their sacrifice will not be in vain. And it's probably less harsh to be killed by random chance than by other people teaming up. The fact is that we really don't have anything to go off of for who to lynch unless someone has a scanner power they've already used, then it's basically random chance anyway, except the elims, if there are any, will be able to influence it.

A random death gives us far less information than a lynch, though. We don’t get to see who votes for them or tries to change the lynch target, we don’t get to hear the defense and any critical information they might share or let slip under pressure. Instead, we get only their alignment and role (assuming this game does that part normally), and nothing to correlate that with. Elith, I feel a random lynch target is a bad idea and a dangerous plan, but while it was suggested by Mint originally (I think) and there’s been other debate about it, no one else’s post read like someone trying to talk the village into a bad situation knowingly. Almost like you wrote that in a doc and then copy/pasted it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elithanathile Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 Oh look. I am being voted on now. I gave my opinion and what I think is the best plan for people. I did in no way "try to talk the village into a bad situation knowingly." And if you feel that random lynch is a bad or dangerous plan, why haven't you spoken up against it before? Or given reasons why we should do it outside of suspecting me? I'm also assuming that they drop their items upon death, which could be helpful. To me it looks like you're suddenly jumping onto the "intentional lynch" so you can land a vote on me. Could I inquire as to whether your end game goal has something to do with killing or lynching neutrals? Also quick side note, Flash, I don't think I've actually been confirmed neutral yet. So there's still some suspicion on that front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jondesu Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 @Elithanathile, I did speak up against it already. I said it was dangerous and while it wasn’t awful, I didn’t like the idea. I’ve since realized the additional information we’d lack, largely because of your post, and found it suspicious that you were pushing it as a good way to get information when it clearly isn’t.

BrightnessRadiant Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 (edited) Ugh don't lynch Elith for that please....He claimed neutral with his words in yellow and Flash or any other neutral can confirm his claim is real right? I mean, how else would he know that? Just sayin...also just sayin that lynching a neutral with a protection role isn't that good a first day lynch. (Plus, I don't want my rp pals taken away that fast again xD) Yes, I'm being biased but it's day one lol...Plus I don't think lynching him would help the village at all.

Gifted power okay so it was a defensive power gifted by an epic...guess that's what I was thinking of lol @King Cole if you could just edit your other post into your previous one that'd help to avoid double posting cuz it's really not allowed unless it's been a long time after you posted last...just a quick note. Edit: like this heh Also, on a note about Elith being the first lynch...please just don't lol...he was lynched in the first cycle in one of the last games he played for talking about his alignment day one and it got really blown outta proportion where we lynched him for a kinda silly reason. (Of course I added to it cuz I was an elim, but hey...don't want it to happen twice so soon haha) Edited August 22, 2017 by BrightnessRadiant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't understand why you voted for him. I suspect it was because Jon was the first to vote and thus break the tie/random lynch. If no one voted then there would only be a 3.846% chance of one particular player dying. The odds are very good you would survive. However for those in a faction, the odds increase quite a bit for them to lose one of their own. If there are five members then that's a 19.23% chance of them losing one of theirs.
