    Just to make sure I understand how that mechanic would work: So, if the Darkfriends happen to decide to make a kill on Fain, and the Corrupted Darkfriend happens to be the one making the group kill, then if he chooses to win as a Darkfriend, he can make the kill in accordance with the group's instructions, but he can't betray/reveal who Fain is. (Can he lie and say "I think that guy is a channeler, we really need to kill him, trust me"?) If he chooses to win as a Corrupted, then he probably tries to direct them to a different target other than Fain, yes?

    I understand m'Lord. I hear and obey.

    Hmmm. It makes sense, I'd agree. How would it work though? The Corrupted Darkfriend can't be the one executing the group kill on Fain? At the moment, I'm vaguely worried it might result in situations where the Corrupted Darkfriend is forced to win as one of the Corrupted than as a Darkfriend. (I'm not sure if I'm making sense with this or if this would be truly problematic. It's just a thought.)

    I believe it's a paradox. If I express chaotic disobedience, then I am acting in obedience to my Lord's precepts. If I express obedience to chaos, then I obediently pledge myself to disobedience. Either way, I am hoist upon my own petard. What would you have me do?
  5. Kasimir
    I wonder why...

    I accept the Dark Waffle. I pledge myself to the service of Lord Chaos. By my oath, I will draw as he says 'draw' and sheathe as he says 'sheathe.' By my oath, I will come as he says 'come' and go as he says 'go.'

    I am really sorry that it seems I am the player who keeps asking all these weird questions, but: is there a reason Waes is not on the player list? :S

    ...it's taken me a while to decide, but it's chaos. Causing disorder! Pandemonium! That's pretty storming hard to resist. ...So, how do I sign on?

    In part, it also depends on how much stock we're putting on Turing tests, doesn't it? My impression was that it's by no means a unanimous or uncriticised notion within the field: just a measure which has successfully captured the popular imagination.

    Gamma: Another clarification about win conditions. I've noticed that both the darkfriends and the corrupted are to outnumber the remaining players, and there's the thing about the win conditions of corrupted darkfriends. So, if all the villagers get eliminated but darkfriends and corrupted are exactly neck-and-neck--they may have to kill each other in order to win? And might I also confirm that the corrupted seem to be a faction with no kill ability; they can only participate in lynches and try to encourage people to lynch the wrong people?
  11. Kasimir
    Understood. Many thanks for the name-fix and the clarifications, GM-to-be!

    A minor request: on the player list, I should be Kasimir, playing Kaim Kasimar is my much-disliked Quick Fix 2 character who got himself ignobly killed in a generally unnecessarily excessive way In addition, I was looking through the rules again and I found some things I wanted to ask about: 1. The only ways of role-blocking, just to be clear, are: A) if a person has been Detained, B ) if the person is the Forsaken (in the case of Padan Fain attempting to Corrupt) and C) through a channeler using the Spirit weave? 2. How does Padan Fain's Corruption work? Here's my thoughts: let's say he can corrupt 5 out of the 25 players and does so. One of his corrupted players is killed. Is he allowed to corrupt another? Or does the cap decrease with the number of players? So now there are, say 15 players at that stage of the game, and Fain has unfortunately lost all his corrupted. Is he now allowed to corrupt 2 others? So I guess in a nutshell, these are my questions: A) is the corruption cap a hard one or a shifting one, based on the players currently alive in the game? B ) is Fain allowed to corrupt more once he's hit the cap the first time around?

    Could I have a joke profile pic, please, O Great Forger? (I've always considered asking and finally just gave in.)
  14. Kasimir
    I guess you win I'm growing awfully fond of that panda.
  15. Kasimir
    Well, seeing as I'm mostly just entertaining an audience of one in the dead doc at the moment, the idea of signing up to get myself killed again sounds ridiculously appealing. This time, I'll be Kaim, retired thief-taker. P.S. I understand that there is some question is to whether the entertainment will continue once my partner-in-crime gets there. Unfortunately, I made a rather ill-advised statement in that regard... And thanks, Gamma, I've been looking forward to a WoT game for ages

    Hence the scare quotes. And yep, Joel. Joe's got it.
  17. Kasimir
    Oh storms, I think that was way too vague :/ Hint: non-Cosmere, but not as 'obscure' as the last work of Brandon referenced in a question (i.e. not as 'obscure' as the work the one Joe's invisible swords came from).
  18. Kasimir
    In retrospect, that was probably a really bad way of putting it :/ Nope, although Kobold King gets an upvote for that one.
  19. Kasimir
    Aww man He has a dream.
  20. Kasimir
    Mindblades? :S
  21. Kasimir
    Other question: do you need experienced RPers for this? That's to say, I've almost never successfully completed a real RP before. That didn't involve dice.
  22. Kasimir
    Could I clarify what sort of RP this would be?

    Kasimar stared down at the steaming cup he held. His head hurt. He breathed the fragrance of the tea, trying to enjoy it. It was far too costly, he thought, but everything seemed to be more costly given the state of Kholinar. The highstorm had passed, leaving devastation and an odd silence in its wake. Rain still dripped steadily from the grey skies outside the small, beat-down store. "You look like the wrong end of a highstorm hit you," said the darkeyed owner. "I think it did," Kasimar replied, quietly. Tea cupped in his hands, he sipped at it patiently and waited to die. Goodbye blue sky.

    What is love? Baby don't spike me, don't spike me, no more.

    Offhand, I like the sound of (the names of) the swords Durendal and Arondight. The first has been associated with Roland (paladin of Charlemagne) and the second (apparently, although I cannot find a literature source quote which makes me slightly doubt this) with Sir Lancelot. In the Fated Blades series, there's Tiger on the Mountain (a tachi that protects its wielder; the prime case being a single house surviving a devastating earthquake), Glorious Victory Unsought (a very long sword that punishes an ambitious wielder), and Beautiful Singer (a katana which drives male wielders to madness and eventually, their deaths/doom.)
