Anniversary Game: In the Re-Wake of the Koloss
Ashiok replied to Metacognition's topic in Sanderson Elimination
Sent 03 January 2015 - 06:51 PM, so half an hour after ren posted his theory. Oh... Facepalm. I had been reading the PMs and not paying attention to the thread, so I thought the idea came from her. And that's what happens when you rely on PMing to get messages. Sorry Wilson. -
Anniversary Game: In the Re-Wake of the Koloss
Ashiok replied to Metacognition's topic in Sanderson Elimination
I find Wilson's late vote strange because it's a very eliminatory thing to do. Sneak a kill in. Wilson doing this is unusual, because if she was spiked she wouldn't draw suspicion on herself by doing so, but if not spiked, why suddenly decide to kill Satrams? Curioser and curioser. There's more on the list of strange things. Early on, she was explaining to me how Eol would likely be a sTineye. Just to me, not to the thread, the collective. A logical reason for this would be her trying to put me against him, have me argue that point for her, get me to kill an innocent. Admittedly, it could've just been a theory, but something's fishy over here. -
Oudeis, that sounds like an AMAZING idea to me, but it'll be pretty hard. Good luck, and I'll try to help you out.

All that would mean is that a seeker found a spiked really early, and notified you. Odds of approx 2:5 assuming 1/5th eliminators and two seekers (that trust you) -

It's a conscience thing. I don't want to choose somebody, and take them out of the game day one, on an impulse. That's just not nice. Pardon me for having a conscience. -
Anniversary Game: In the Re-Wake of the Koloss
Ashiok replied to Metacognition's topic in Sanderson Elimination
Why should we kill an inactive? To keep an active alive one more cycle? Not reason enough. We lynch for info, and killing somebody because they're inactive is stupid. It grants much less info than killing somebody whilst discussing why to kill them. Therefore, we gain more info by killing somebody other than Dom, and if we're gonna kill Dom, we might as well not kill anybody. We have three possible routes: Killing Dom pros: Learn what his role is, no actives deaths, possibility of discussion (But unlikely) Cons: Loss of a player, loss of the info granted by a lynch that was discussed (AKA loss of a cycle), somebody dies to Spiked next cycle and This leaves: 25 people, mostly actives (AKA 25) No Lynch Pros: Discussion, no deaths Cons: Loss of info, somebody dies to spiked next cycle in the same way as Dom 26 people, one of which is confirmed inactive (AKA 25) Lynching an active Pros: Gain info from discussing the lynch, possibly kill spiked Cons: possibly kill innocent active 25 people, one of which is confirmed inactive (AKA 24) While lynching an active leaves us with the least amount of functioning players, it gives us the most info for day one. Sure, I'll argue for lynches, I just don't know where to put my vote yet. -
Anniversary Game: In the Re-Wake of the Koloss

It's 90% certain that there's sBronze. Normal eliminator roles are seeker and protector and possibly Mistborn. But, seeing as GM almighty has decided that there will be no safe roles, we can't assume that. @Kas: Meaningful like on one of the main suspects or somebody that would shed new light on the discussion, which I suppose you actually ended up doing (admittedly completely changing the track of the discussion, but I digress...) and while those positions are meaningfulness, usually when I get onto one of them, discussion is derailed, and I don't want to be responsible for that. Oops, too late... -
Anniversary Game: In the Re-Wake of the Koloss
Ashiok replied to Metacognition's topic in Sanderson Elimination
Whoops. Eol's right. I REPLIED a at noon, and that was the only time I saw on the message, first time around. I've been sleeping, and will respond to everything else in a bit EDIT: After reading through: @Kas... Self votes are bad, for yourself and the village. They distract, and that is bad. Also, if you're arguing for voting, vote somewhere that MATTERS, somewhere that gives info. @Mail I seem to magically know how the CURRENT eliminators think? No, no, no. I just know what comes with being in a collective. (that was my thing with secondary clarifications)... But I guess that my activity, in it of itself, is suspicious? I've been quasi inactive, but when I post useful things, I post useful things to the best of my ability @the whole Hero debacle: If we don't vote, we don't get much info. What else would we do in thread? We'd just be picked off by the spiked. We have to vote. I do doubt that Hero is Spiked, if only because this argument has been had many times, less so recently, but he hasn't played recently. @Eol: The more I look at it, the less likely it seems to be a spiked plan, and more likely to be as he said. @me not voting this cycle: I don't like voting cycle one... Not enough info. I do agree that it needs to be done, I just don't want to pull the trigger -
Anniversary Game: In the Re-Wake of the Koloss
Ashiok replied to Metacognition's topic in Sanderson Elimination
Well, this would be a logical scheme to pull if you were a sTineye. The Spiked don't want any tineyes to survive, so in the beginning they may have told you to suicide, getting info in the process. Later, they might have realized that a tineye would be good to hold onto as a role villagers wouldn't to kill, so they told you to clarify. This makes more sense to me than you being innocent and profiling us all through these minuscule exchanges. I responded in what, two sentences? You didn't continue the farce after that, explain your (imaginary) logic, and actually accumulate an idea of how I behaved. You didn't even respond. And that, Eolhondras, is why I'm debating voting for you to die. While your little trick was creative, the inept execution leads me to wonder. However, this is a strange thing to pull, especially Day one. After night two, actual conversations could be held over role accusations, and you could've gotten strong profiles. Here's how I would've done it. I believe you would amass better reactions this way. Tell Wilson/Claincy that you're going to do it. Do the thingy on night two, when there's more info, except only contact one person at a time. A while in, tell them that it was just a test, to profile them, and that they shouldn't tell anybody about it. Rinse and repeat. As I was saying, creative idea, but the execution fell short. Innocent or not, it is pretty suspicious. -

Anniversary Game: In the Re-Wake of the Koloss
Ashiok replied to Metacognition's topic in Sanderson Elimination
"Ugh, this town is so DIRTY! I mean, I've been here a week, and look at my gowns! They're all sooty. Koloss would be better than this drudgery," Ashette whined, just as she had been for the last week. "But, I guess I'd rather survive to return to Luthadel and marry. Now. If I'm going to survive, we're going to need a plan. Here's what I'm thinking. You all run out, and fight the koloss. I'll hop in my carriage and ride away. How's that sound?" She smiled cutely as everybody else groaned. "But, in all seriousness, we have to stick together. If we split up and start talking in messages and codes and suchlike, there'll be chaos and anarchy and Beetle incidents. We do NOT want any Beetle incidents. Welp, Ashette seems to have summed up my logic fairly nicely. Cute, vapid and with a strong sense of self preservation. That's my Ashette Cett. -
Seriously? No New York? Oh well. Looks like I'll have to try to fly up to California MLK weekend, so I don't miss any school. That'll go over well with the parents.

Anniversary Game: In the Re-Wake of the Koloss
Ashiok replied to Metacognition's topic in Sanderson Elimination
Except the kittens are catquisitors, and the box is a shardpool. Also, Ashette is the genius who forgot to RP, so... A month ago: "Father, don't make me go! I don't want to leave! I can't live in that squalor, and not with dreadful Aunt Rae. You can't do this, you just can't!" Ashette yelled as her father picked her up, bodily throwing her into the carriage. "Young lady, it's for your own good. We've spoiled you. Aunt Rae will fix that." Her father said gruffly. As the carriage pulled away, sending Ashette away, she began to cry, perhaps knowing that she would soon be... In the Wake of the Koloss. -
