    "Yep. Jus' a plain ol' normal redneck." Bubba picked up an empty beer can that had suddenly appeared on the floor of the White Room and spit into it. Then he hesitated. "Uh, well... I mean, mostly normal. For some reason, I can't go nowhere unless my imaginary friend Stephen goes with me. And I can't always just summon him when i want. It's real annoyin' when I run out of dip. Or spit cups." Everybody near him took a step back. "But now you, Miss Clare... are you pretendin' to be dead or somethin'? (/spit) You gotcha dress all floatin' around and whatnot." I don't know why I'm focusing on the dip thing. Sorry about that... kinda?

    As soon as that insolent peasant Martin breathed his last, Vineyerian smiled knowingly at the rest of the crowd around him. He said, almost too softly for anyone else to hear, "My work is complete, my lord. Your plans for me have been carried out perfectly, and all is in place as you have forseen." Suddenly, red smoke enveloped his hands and feet, then crept along his extremities until it seemed to be emanating from every pore of his body. "YES, PUTRID LITTLE CREMLINGS. I SERVE THE GREATEST LORD AND MASTER IN THE COSMERE; THE MIGHTY ODIUM. MAKE ALL THE PLANS THAT YOU WILL. TAKE MY PHYSICAL BODY AND KILL IT. YOU CANNOT ESCAPE THE DAMNATION THAT AWAITS YOU!" Those around Vineyerian were momentarily stunned into silence, so he continued: "Hoid! I see you, you dog! You might kill me, but I am just the Baleful Almighty's servant. You cannot escape the wrath of Odium! You might even manage to strike down Rayse, but ODIUM will survive. The Cosmere will be rid of your foul stench soon enough! The inexorable ascent of my mighty Lord and master has begun, and it cannot be stopped! TREMBLE, PUNY MORTALS, AND PREPARE TO KNEEL BEFORE YOUR GOD!"

    The dude from the Interlude in... WoR, I think? That made shoes for free for homeless children. Was that Ym? EDIT: The Coppermind tells me that yes, it was. Dang it, Joe. You and your encylcopedic memory.

    "Dead? Aw, heck, I ain't never been dead before, Miss Clare. Don't see how as I'd like it much," Bubba responded. "No huntin'. No fishin'. Wouldn't be much of a life." He chuckled to himself at what he imagined was his extremely clever joke. Then he glanced around to either side and leaned in closer, as if to share a secret. "I will tell ya somethin', though. I got this imaginary friend that appears to me sometimes and talks to me. Big sonofagun, too. Says his name is Stephen."

    Bubba sauntered into the room, casually put a plug of dip inside his bottom lip, and nodded towards Clare. "Howdy there, miss. My momma named me Dale Earnhardt Junior the Fifth, on account'a bein' her fifth son, but you can call me Bubba Vee. That shore is a nice poofy dress ya got there."
  7. vineyarddawg
    Cool, I'm Bubba V, a southern redneck who's convinced that Stephen is actually a figment of his imagination. (Also, I'm only about 1/3 of the way through reading Legion... just started reading it when Hero announced this game was next. So I apologize if anything I say isn't correct in-world.)

    This might be a dumb question, but can we play in more than one Elimination game at the same time (if we promise to only get them confused with each other no more than twice... in the first cycle)?
  9. vineyarddawg
    Wait. Are you saying you don't like Calvinball??

    Just for that Patrick, the role of Prof in the upcoming Reckoners movie will be played by Jar Jar Binks. (Hollywood strikes again! )

    Do you know what the airspeed velocity is of an unladen potato-balloon?
  13. vineyarddawg
    Precisely. The proof will be in the pudding, so to speak. I hear what you're saying, Maillw, but I don't know what response I could give that would be able to 100% convince you. We discussed the double-claim scenario a good bit in the Night 2 thread. It's my word against Antillar's, essentially.
  14. vineyarddawg
    Actually, I think it would be more like a balloon attached to a potato in a minefield...

    I wouldn't eat that cookie... they've been known to have hazardous hemalurgic content! EDIT: And welcome to the 17th shard!
  16. vineyarddawg
    Welcome! And I wouldn't take that cookie... What books have you read? (Don't want to spoil something you haven't read!)
  17. vineyarddawg
    I would like to reiterate what Marns said.

    Yeesh. Sorry. If I'd known, I could have held off. I've literally had no one to collaborate with about it, so I just went by what I thought I should do. (Even in the Roshar PM group, there's only one experienced player, and I wasn't about to reveal my role in the open world PM, anyway.)
  22. vineyarddawg
    So, this is why I was so interested in the witness role last cycle. I'm a witness. And I saw Antillar Maximus. I'm sure he'll claim the reverse, so if he does, just kill us both to be sure. I don't mind dying to take out an OC or Odium. EDIT: This is also why I was asking in the Roshar PM group if anybody knew or had access to Cultivation. I wouldn't have spoken up so easily if I had had someone to PM about it.
  23. vineyarddawg
    I agree, but the bottom line is that I was addressing Unodus' comments, which seem more and more suspicious to me.
  24. vineyarddawg
    Odium. Unodus was talking about us killing Odium, so that's what I was addressing. I see now in your quote that I accidentally wrote a confusing sentence there. What I meant is that, in general, a shard's investiture survives unless that shard is killed by Odium. I assume Odium wouldn't shatter himself, so Odium's investiture ability will survive after Odium is shattered, and it would be given to the last person in whom Odium invested. Sorry for the confusing wording earlier.
  25. vineyarddawg
    I'm just reading from the Expanded rules document (the link I posted). This is the Odium section (relevant section bolded by me): ODIUM: Shardic: Once per night, Odium can target a player for death. If that player is a Shard, they die, and their power is shattered. This removes the shard from the game, not allowing Endowment to give it to someone. Odium can NOT shatter Endowment. Investiture: During the Day, Odium can invest in a worldhopper. That player can kill a non shardic player during the night phase of the same cycle. IF they target a Shard, the Shard Miraculously survives. NOTE: If Odium dies, his shard is given to the player last invested in rather than to Endowment.
