The Young Pyromancer he/him Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Had written up a post explaining Drake and my connection, but it got eaten. Walin has posted, so good on him. Don't want drake to die, so even though I don't think you're an elim here Experience, Drake's both my strongest village read and someone with a potentially important role for later.
Ookla-son-son-Ventyl Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) Alright after reading others post about Drake, I genuinely agree with the concept of him being more of an elim than Experience. His voting patterns do seem odd when you look back at them, and the comment about letting lynches be decided by elims does stick out among some other post that I don’t have time to make a full analysis on before the turn ends. So here is an updated vote count as far as I know. DrakeMarshall (4): Ashbringer, Magestar, TJ Shade, VentylKynedath (3): Araris Valerian, DrakeMarshall, MistExperience (3): Elandera, Emi, Yong PyromancerAraris Valerian (2): Shard of Reading, xinoeph512Emi (2): Experience, Karnage EDIT: ninja’d by everyone, but luckily Striker kept me updated on the votes Edited June 9, 2020 by Ventyl
Magestar he/him Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) And here I was about to move my vote to Kynedath to stop Pyro running away with the lynch. Dang this is fun. Good job Striker. Edit: Wait no now it's only Drake. Uh. I guess that's good. I'm a little concerned by how little resistance there is, other than from Pyro. Guess we'll see. Edited June 9, 2020 by Magestar
StrikerEZ he/him Posted June 9, 2020 Author Posted June 9, 2020 Okay, the turn's over. If anyone manages to ninja me, their vote still doesn't count. Why did you guys do this to me? 2
StrikerEZ he/him Posted June 9, 2020 Author Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) Lorena Blackburn tapped cadmium and stopped breathing. She'd spent her whole life using this lil' trick to make it easier to sneak up on people to take the things they didn't quite care enough about to hide well enough. If they couldn't hear yer breathing, then ya didn't have to worry about hiding that sound. Just the sounds of ya sneaking up on them. Lorena did so now, following some Reginald fellow. The group had been talking about finding them loyalists or whatever, and Lorena had jumped in every now and then to make people trust them. All she had to do was steal some money from Reginald and she could go on about her merry day. Her hands had found their way into his suit pocket when she felt a hand grab her back. "What are you doing, reaching into that fine man's suit!" Lorena could barely hear the words she was so shocked. Not once in her life had she been caught, and she would swear on Harmony, the Survivor, and her dead mother that was true. "You wouldn't happen to be a rusting loyalist would ya, little lady?" The man's breath smelled awful, but that was the least of Lorena's worries. There was already a growing crowd, and that Reginald bloke looked especially angry. Now how am I going to get out of this? Lorena thought to herself. I could lie, maybe convince them that- She didn't get a chance to finish her thoughts as the man slapped her and threw her to the ground. If she hadn't already been tapping cadmium, she for sure would've lost her breath. As it was though, she had immense pain in her back from when the man threw her on the ground. She was about to get back up when the crowd began to beat her back down. "I asked you a question! Or are you too afraid to answer since you're a loyalist and just got caught red-handed!" Lorena didn't get a chance to respond as the crowd kept beating her. The crowd finally dispersed, and when people went to check on Lorena's corpse, they find nothing that could incriminate her as a loyalist. Nothing was in her room either. The crowd fell apart, and they went to their rooms for another night and yet no loyalists to show for their efforts so far. DrakeMarshall has been lynched! He was a PRE Operative Gasper Ferring and Thief!

Mat he/him Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) So far we've mislynched a Hemalurgist and a thief. Not a great start. Edit: I checked, the black market is as full as it was last cycle. As expected. Edited June 9, 2020 by Matrim's_Dice 3
StrikerEZ he/him Posted June 9, 2020 Author Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) In addition, @Kidpen will be subbing in for @ILuvHats! Welcome him to the game! Edited June 9, 2020 by StrikerEZ
|TJ| he/him Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 What even happened when I was gone?? Drake had just my solo vote. Votes for Kynedath popped up from somewhere? Man, I was really hoping to soothe my suspicion on Drake in the following cycles. Be right back, after going through what happened.
The Young Pyromancer he/him Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 GAH! Why are all my allies all being lynched! Part of me thinks that the elims are specifically targeting me and the allies I've managed to make, but I know that's just paranoia. RRRGGG. I'm so FRUSTRATED!!!!
Mat he/him Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 That's two SHOUTY-SHOUT members down. Rest In Peace.
Ookla-son-son-Ventyl Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Not to make light of their death, but this should mean that whispery whisper inc. is better right? None of us have died...
The Young Pyromancer he/him Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Right, I'm going to cross-reference who voted on drake/coda. People who voted on both of them, you're bumped up my suspect list to the top. And yes, I knew Drake's roles, and having a thief would really help us stop the elims from getting Lerasium, especially when coordinated with a wider group of players like I was planning on doing. I was really looking forward to playing SE with Drake. For all the people who voted on him, you killed the one person I could almost guarantee was village, someone who is good at strategising and pulling off plays behind the scenes, someone who had no real reason to be voted on, and someone with an important role for late-game resource denial against the elims. I hope you're happy.
Ashbringer he/him Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) ... I think the reason I/we were suspicious is because you two were trying to do so much behind the scenes... Well, that backfired. Now my suspicions are back to square one, because I doubt Pyro could fool both Drake and I in order to lynch a certain target. So I think Pyro’s soft cleared at least by me.

I hope you're happy. Hey. I was legitimately suspicious of Drake, and had the circumstances been a little different, would gladly have voted on him. You should be careful thinking you know someone's alignment that well after 2 cycles, especially someone as skilled as Drake. 1
Kidpen he/him Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Ayyyy how's it going. Time to actually read the rules. And the thread too, if I feel like it. But definitely the rules at least. 2
The Young Pyromancer he/him Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 I mean, I know Drake pretty well from the reckoner's RP, as we worked closely together on that, and between the 3 pms we've shared, a total of 275 messages have been exchanged. True, a lot of those are between other people, but in drake and my private PM alone we've sent a total of 87 messages. It's just really irritating, because C1 I talked the most with Coda, and C2 with drake, getting solid village reads on both of them, and yet they were both killed, and both were village. So next time I say I have a village read on someone due to PMs, please at least CONSIDER not lynching them?
Elandera she/her Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Rusts. Rollover is at a really bad time for me on work days. The last time I was able to look at the thread, it was still on page 6. I'm still suspicious of Experience and don't like the surge to swing the votes again. 3 minutes ago, The Young Pyromancer said: So next time I say I have a village read on someone due to PMs, please at least CONSIDER not lynching them? But... but... it's so much fun! Actually, this is a good point. If anyone's suspicions are because Pyro thinks they're village, why not lynch Pyro instead? Granted, I don't know the actual reasoning for lynching Drake, since I was unable to look at the thread when most of the votes happened. 7 minutes ago, Kidpen said: Ayyyy how's it going.

It's a nightmare of 20+ pages of nonsense. N1 is a fine place to start, or maybe the end of D1. If you have time, though, why not? Good news, after tonight I'm going into my weekend, so I will have a bit more time to actually go through and find an explanation for my gut read on Experience. Just in time for another vote! (Yay tunnels!)

(Yay tunnels!) The main reasons were because of suspicious votes, and some comments about the letting elims decides the vote. To be far, I only switched my vote to him because he was the next best option behind Experience. I didn’t want to vote Experience because of conversation in PMs.
Experience he/him Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 How was I not lynched!? I don't even know what happened. I guess I should go and read through last turn now...
Kynedath Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Apologies for my absence! I'll do my best to get back into the habit of checking the shard regularly. I was almost lynched and have no idea why. I'll go back through and see what I can find from previous turns. I'll be back probably tomorrow with my thoughts.

|TJ| he/him Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 So I've come back after going through the 2+ pages I've missed and.... THE LYNCH WAS MISCOUNTED. DRAKE WAS WRONGFULLY LYNCHED. @StrikerEZ WE WANT JUSTICE (jk, it's not your fault. you've been a great GM. I blame all the people late voting) WRONG VOTE COUNT: DrakeMarshall (4): Ashbringer, Magestar, TJ Shade, VentylExperience (3): Elandera, Emi, The Young PyromancerKynedath (3): Araris Valerian, DrakeMarshall, MistAraris Valerian (2): Shard of Reading, xinoehp512Emi (2): Experience, Karnage CORRECT VOTE COUNT: DrakeMarshall (4): Ashbringer, Magestar, TJ Shade, VentylExperience (4): Elandera, Emi, The Young Pyromancer, LAHILT Kynedath (3): Araris Valerian, DrakeMarshall, MistAraris Valerian (2): Shard of Reading, xinoehp512Emi (2): Experience, Karnage If the vote was soothed, the name should have been there. I believe it was a miscount since you did not mention Lahilt's name in the previous counts as well PS: I will go back to check if Lahilt retracted their vote on Experience. If they have I'd be extremely embarassed. 2
The Young Pyromancer he/him Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 AHAHAH!!! @DrakeMarshall, my friend, we might be back in business!!!
