    Thanks to you, I read "AM" as "Altermind"

    In Elantris, I don't think that the religions are a trustworthy source of information about the identity of the holder of a shard. However, I still believe that Endowment is held by a man because Edgli sounds like a guy name to me.

    What a coincidence! Newan is also a fan of Sanderson. His favorite cosmere character is Zane.

    Here are some of my ideas for strategies: 1) I think we should announce if we plan on going for the Cornucopia. If there are at least fifteen people going for the Cornucopia, I don't think anyone else would want to sign up. This benefits everyone. Too many people at the cornucopia means that you are more likely to be killed. Too few people at the cornucopia means that a lot of people are running away when they don't have to, and a minority is going to get most of the items. Newan is currently planning on going for the Cornucopia. If I change my mind, I will retract it in blue. 2) Alliances should not betray each other early on. Alliances cannot last forever, and the urge to get a head start and kill your allies early on will be strong. If people are going to fall into this, alliances will be completely useless. I say that every alliance should set an expiration date. Maybe it's the number of cycles you will stay together, or maybe it's the number of other people alive. Either way, if somebody breaks an alliance before it expires, nobody take them in. If somebody can't be trusted, they must be killed. 3) Beginners should work together. The people who have been playing this game for a long time have history together. If you form an alliance with Kasimir and Renegade and you get close to the end of the game, who do you think they are going to choose to kill? (No offense, guys) 4) Don't kill me. If you're thinking about killing me, just tell me. Instead, you should let me promise not to kill you for the next four turns if you promise not to kill me for as long. Or if you just want to kill me for my item, tell me so. I'll give you my item if you let me into your alliance. It's better than dying. An agreement can be made. This game makes me want to be evil and ruthless, but I know it will work out better if I choose to be honorable instead. Life before death!

    There's a new game starting at the Sanderson Elimination forum. Everybody join!

    Taken: males from 3, 4, 7, 9, 10, and <wherever Joe's character is from> (Just so people signing up now don't have to go back and search through. When I was writing my post, 4 had been available, but Al edited before I posted. Confusing.)

    Woops I'll edit.

    Newan is in. He's a closet sociopath from District 9 who was very happy when he was finally chosen by random. I just thought of something funny: once twelve people sign up as dudes, the other people will have to sign up as female characters if they want to stay canon-friendly. Also, if it's possible, can people not spoil Mockingjay with this RP? I've only read the first two books so far. I have a couple more questions for Peng: 1) If we decide to go for the Cornucopia, do we send it to you in a PM, or do we announce it in the thread? 2) Are there events? Like, suddenly there are three new medical kits at the Cornucopia! or something? 3) Can we give items to other people as a show of good faith? 4) When somebody is killed, is the killer revealed in the write-up? Are protectors revealed in the write-up? Also, I'm officially going to start referring to experienced players as Career killers.

    Survive long enough to get a shardblade: a statistically terrible plan of action, but it somehow worked out. Thanks everybody for a fun game! And thanks for being so nice and encouraging me despite past hiccups. It's all of you great people that keep me coming back to these games. Also, to the new people: thank you for sticking with it. I hope to see all of you in future games!

    And if I had matter manipulation, I would just make it rain pancakes. Why be creative and original when you can make it rain pancakes?

    Yay Kas gets his win! I'll send in my shardblade action for Torwel now.

    It was down, then up, and now it's down again. It's like a drunk windrunner. I'll just keep refreshing this: http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/brandonsanderson.com

    Wyrm, would I lose my shardblade if I led a vote against the Wit? Also, for old times' sake:

    I love the fact that you guys regularly write fan fiction for this fan fiction.
  19. Newan
    Truthlock is an epic I've thought about for a while, and he's probably Chaos's most important agent. I'll write him up here. Truthlock, reluctant agent of Chaos: Truthlock is extremely potent, as far as information epics go. He is Chaos's prime source of information about the world.

    Alv, I'm willing to give Jasnah the benefit of the doubt because of your reasons, for now. Seeing that other people think Aonar's actions seem off makes me feel better. I thought so. Aonar! What is your role? There are enough large targets now that I doubt it's worth keeping it a secret anymore. What do you think we should do now? This is kind of a poke vote, but also kind of a gut feeling vote. I will change it if you convince me that my gut is a darkfriend.

    Florida chapter of the Reckoners somehow manages to be both lazy and clever. Also, this:
  22. Newan
    It's just like what Uncle Ben said: with great power comes great opportunity to kill bad guys. Are these reasons that you can tell us, or do they have to remain secret?
  23. Newan
    I'm looking at the Florida Man twitter, and I see a lot of headlines about Florida Man trying to sneak out of stores with the wares stuffed down his pants. Maybe one of his powers could be... ah... how do I put this so that it doesn't sound really weird... Storm it: Maybe his pants are bigger on the inside.

    I won't kill you if there are others who more urgently need my attention. You've been pretty suspicious for this entire game. Jumping on bandwagon votes and trolling alongside Macen has actually worked pretty well for you, but I'm just not convinced that you are good. And you're right. Chances are, I'm not going to be convinced that you are good. But it's very likely that I will be convinced that someone else is bad. I'm just saying, if I don't come up with any ideas of somebody else who I need to kill, you will be my default. And please don't take this the wrong way, Winter Cloud. The way I've been playing makes it seem like I have a vendetta against you, but I'm a fan of you. You have been one of the most entertaining parts of this game. I just also think that you're rather suspicious. Long story short: no, you're not doomed. Currently, it is my plan to shardblade you in the face, but that plan is just as liable to change as my vote. I'm sorry I made my convictions sound so harsh in my first post this cycle.

    Marand, I'm sorry. I really did think you were a spy. I guess that just means I need to play more games where you are an eliminator. I doubt there were more than 2 spies among the lighteyes. I trust Norlav because he had no reason to tell us he was heterochromic if he was bad. I trust Mek and Eolhondras because of last cycle's exchange. Our three spies are likely to be hidden among these six: Damon Shan Reihmer Odysa Aonaran Alinel Torwel With a lynch and two shardblades, we have the ability to kill three people this cycle. I say we go for it. I don't know what to make of Torwel, Alinel, or Damon. I'll have to go back and read Torwel's posts again when I have time, and Wilson's post explaining why she voted for Alinel. I remember somebody saying that Jasnah has feigned inactivity before, so that's not a good sign. This is why I'm voting for Damon Shan. I think Reihmer is less likely to be bad than Aonar. I'm not saying that Aonar is suspicious. He's too careful for that. But Aonar has been jeeping my name on possible people to block or kill with a shardblade, even though it didn't make sense. Obviously, I'm too compromised to make a decision there until I here some others' opinions on the matter. Odysa! Your malarky, shenanigans, and tomfoolery have gone on for too long! Unless I hear a solid reason not to, I am going to kill you. That's right, cremlings. The Supreme Lynchmaster is back, and he means business.
