    Action 3: What: Purchase 3 MP for 3 wealth from House Jormungard per turn When: G6T2A3 Where: Keep Tekiel Who: Lord Tekiel Why: To augment the military strength of House Tekiel

    I apologise for my lack of participation today - I had a gap year job interview yesterday, and have discovered the shard has now been blocked (along with a host of other sites) at school, in accordance with their new policy. I don't have the time right now to balance my suspicions against each other, or consider them in depth, so I'd just like to offer that I'm looking at Ada so far this game with more than mild suspicion.

    Adavantos, I'm not Luckat, but isn't it incredibly simple? PMs during the night phase are used for most communication - be it sensitive, or just discussing the actions of, and thoughts on, other players. Introducing a cipher in the day would be the equivalent of merely extending the time during which generic PMs can be used. That said, there is an argument to be made that use of it in this manner is going against the spirit of the rules, if not the letter - Wyrm, Mods, do you have any thoughts on this?

    Lopen, given how few players I interacted with last cycle - indeed, before today, you could make the same argument about my killing almost any player. I still don't see why you're promoting me to suspicion here?
  6. Orlok Tsubodai
    I killed Burnt 'Because I might decide to kill her randomly'? You could use that argument for any player killed. In its very nature it cannot be used to lay specific blame on me - for you acknowledge that it would be chosen randomly, and hence I could not be any more likely to pick her than any other - and indeed any other player who might choose a kill randomly would be equally likely to decide upon her.
  7. Orlok Tsubodai
    Of course, Lopen! On a serious note, why was Burnt the target? She's a very good player - but not one with a particularly high profile. I'm going to have low activity until tomorrow evening - I have a job interview at 10am GMT tomorrow.

    I have to say I'm opposed to any scheme that forces people to kill themselves for the game - it is only a game, and the aim is to have fun, not necessarily to win. If we start demanding that players kill themselves, we have decided to place winning over having fun. Has it been a trend in the last few games for there to be little actual lynch discussion on day one?
  9. Orlok Tsubodai
    I haven't played resistance before - would anyone with experience be kind enough to provide a summary of the non-obvious changes that the differing mechanics bring?
  10. Orlok Tsubodai
    I have returned. I'm in a rush now, but again have time to play, so will sign up as Locke Tekiel
  11. Orlok Tsubodai
    I would put a not insignificant amount of money on Sart being evil - at this stage in the game, prolonging it is madness, and a vote on an inactive does nothing. However, I think it more conceivable to get a lynch on Hero - although don't think it particularly likely even so!
  12. Orlok Tsubodai
    In the interests of trying to tie down a lynch, I'm going to add my vote to Meta. Right now, frankly, I have no particularly strong opinion on his alignment - and suspect I'd need to reread everything several times to do so - but given the discussion, the information we get on living players from Meta's death is worth it. Sorry Meta...

    Ada, it has nothing to do with juggling two - or even three (despite not being involved in conversation, I am following the AG), but more to do with the fact that I've been at a family funeral today. I fully intend to make a contribution as soon as I'm home - I'm currently checking the forum with patchy mobile internet whilst it's not my turn to drive.
  14. Orlok Tsubodai
    I'm hardly insistent on getting him lynched Kipper! Indeed - it was he I scanned on cycle 1, and was reluctant to reveal his identity early as a lurcher. I'd just like to understand as much of the situation as I can before a lynch you consider so crucial.
  15. Orlok Tsubodai
    And why are we so set on getting Queensteph rather than Lopen lynched? Lopen himself is a dangerous player - sufficiently so that a team containing him is very plausible. Further, given the number of kills flying around, protection for the eliminators seems like a very sensible role to give them
  16. Orlok Tsubodai
    I apologise for my absence last cycle - I was travelling to a family funeral. I doubt I'll be active until later this evening. Kipper, a thought to consider: if all the reckoners are sufficiently well equipped as Arraenae was, could that be considered sufficiently powerful to warrant the lack of an overly experienced player? Although, since you do seen so set on there being an experienced player, what makes you any more likely to be innocent than me?
  17. Orlok Tsubodai
    Although I do, without question, suspect Mailliw, I do agree that discussion is always a good thing - and something that I must confess to not having aided this game. In the interests of allowing greater movement here, and because Mailliw does have a ring of exasperation that, on some intuional level is making me believe his innocence slightly more, I'm going to vote Hero.
  18. Orlok Tsubodai
    Given Ada's allusion that he is targeting one of his larger suspicions tonight, of which I am one, I'd ask that if, as is entirely possible, I die tonight, that players do consider strongly the chance that at least one of the players with magnified persuasion is evil - although I'm no longer quite so sure on it being Ada, or to consider the parallel possibility that with so many kill roles flying around, the eliminator team is likely to be quite small, and no doubt will have a not insignificant degree of protection - I will admit to have scanned a lurcher on cycle 1, and am now leaning towards making their name public - so if I don't survive, I'd still encourage the debate on publicising lurcher identities to be held next cycle. Whilst I am suspicious of both Ada and Clanky, I think it more important that we discover the result of the player we actually decide to lynch this cycle - I'm going to add my vote to Arraenae, hoping to solidify the lynch against manipulation.
  19. Orlok Tsubodai
    Ada, as I said before, I do not intend to reveal the cycle 1 result: it is not in the interests of the village to have it public. Cycle 2, Mailliw 'did something I did not understand' and used Acceleratwd healing. Last turn, Kipper 'made someone see something that wasn't there'. Whilst I'll reveal last cycle's result, I'm not certain that it's terribly sensible to reveal every result every cycle, omitting those that would be dangerous to reveal - not least because we then give the eliminators a significant amount of information from which to narrow down those who do hold important roles.
  20. Orlok Tsubodai
    Ada, you mention that the informational negatives to the eliminators of body snatching might outweigh the advantages. This, to me, seems to be misdirection - although they do lose information on which roles remain, this is only a problem to the elimintors if they kill the mortician sufficiently early. Hence, I fully expect no information on eliminator kills for a number of days. Whilst there clearly are advantages of refraining from using roles, I would argue that 1) this turns the game into a far more 'cop' reliant strategy - one I've never enjoyed, and 2) handicaps the village by preventing the use of effective roles.
  21. Orlok Tsubodai
    Mailliw, I would appreciate an explanation of your erratic playstyle, and also the result I received scanning you! That said, given 3 players so far have demonstrated accelerated healing, we really do need to be conscious that Ada could be a reckoner matter disruptor - or at least isn't precluded from being a reckoner solely based on his role.
  22. Orlok Tsubodai
    Cycle 1 I found out some information I don't think would be in the best interests of the village to disclose. Last cycle, I followed Mailliw, who 'did something I did not understand' and (and I checked that this was a second action) used his own accelerated healing. Also, Kipper, I do not have magnified persuasion -just accelerated healing (now used) and invisibility.
  23. Orlok Tsubodai
    Before I start, I'd like to apologise for the lack of quoted evidence in my post. Part of this is due to my owning only the kindle editions of the Era 2 mistborn books, and partly due to the specific incident that triggered my thinking up this theory being within the first chapters of Bands of Mourning. Now I admit this theory is completely outlandish, but I have some niggling intuition that Steris is a Spinner - a chromium ferring, with the ability to store luck. I would argue that constantly storing luck is both the reason for the consistency of unplanned and unfortunate events plaguing her, and also the impetus for her remarkable contingency planning - storing luck means that she knows that something will go wrong, and so mitigates the disadvantages of doing so by being prepared for even the worst eventualities.
  24. Orlok Tsubodai
    Given the current state of the lynch, it would be nice to have more people weigh in - no lynch in a quick fix leaves us bereft of the information we need next cycle, and is far more damaging than in longer games.
  25. Orlok Tsubodai
    Emphasis mine.This seems like a wholly misleading statement. Are you arguing that you came at this with such a high level that your arguments were equally valid regardless of my innocence? You seemed fairly set on my guilt a few hours ago - so this sudden claim to have been trying to ensure my protection all along is to be completely disingenuous. I'm afraid, Ada, that a lot of what you've said today strikes me as manipulation, which makes me very wary.
