Good game well played everyone! We broke the AG curse in a similar game -- I think each game, the village has gotten closer and closer to winning. The elims of AG5 better watch out >:) Speaking in parodies only this game was an interesting experience. I cut down on a lot of the side chatter this game and had to simplify my analysis, because sometimes it would be a hassle even finding a related song. @Straw, can you link the docs here?

Under a banner of a blue bead lake That's where you pointed out my mistake If Herzadian's an elim we'll win So I'll say Don't you worry, don't you worry Araris See I've got a plan for you Don't you worry, don't you worry now, yeah Interesting. You're claiming Seeker? Who else did you scan and what did you get?

Let's start at the very beginning A very good place to start When you read you go with ABC When you play you go with P O E (P O E) The first three notes just happen to be P O E (P O E) Process of elimination Oh let's see if I can make it easier Oplen, seeked, by our Mistborn Rae, a cleared Coinshot Itiah, a clever rules exploiter Two Armed, who'll soon be dead Stick, a helpful Mistborn Snip, lightly vouched for by Itiah Pyro, his past self left a self-vote That will bring us back to Araris Valerian @LopenTheTwoArmedHerdazian, if you can give us some substantial thoughts about the game by 10 PM PDT this cycle, I'll consider taking my vote off of you. As things stand now, though, I have no reason to believe that you're not a villager. Even if you are, the village won't loose much from your death if your current levels of contribution stay the same.

Rae: Mr. Mighty Lopen Madam Stick Araris, sir What is this? Oplen: We have charges counted From separate accounts… Stick: Lack of lynch votes, made to be discounted… Araris: To a Devotary of Spontanity way back in Quick Fix cycle 4 Rae: Is that what you have? Are you done? Stick: You are uniquely situated by virtue of your position Oplen: Though 'virtue' is not a word I'd apply to this situation Stick: To seek personal gain, to stray from your village mission Lopen: And your thread post show no votes but speculation Araris: An R&R player speaking in riddles for fun Oplen and Stick: I can almost see the headline, your career is done Araris: After today's lynching the elim count will be none Araris, Oplen, and Stick: Ya best g'wan run back where ya come from! Rae: Ha! You don't even know what you're asking me to confess Araris, Oplen, and Stick: Confess Rae: You have nothing. I don't have to tell you anything at all Unless Araris, Oplen, and Stick: Unless Rae: If I can prove I had a good reason to defer Do you promise not to tell another soul what you heard? Araris: No one else was in the room where it happened Rae: Is that a yes? Araris, Oplen, and Stick: Um, yes Araris: "Dear Itiah, I hope this letter finds you in good health And in a position where you can lend some stealth In the pockets of players who do as they are taught You see, it'll be Devotary who tomorrow I'll coin..." Oplen: Whaaaat Rae: She courted us Gave us some reads but not nearly enough That's when I decided to kick up a fuss Told y'all she was sus I paid her forcefully Without a vote I mortally wounded her guts But my papers are orderly! As you can see I kept a record of every kill in my bloodied history Check it again against your list n' see consistency Devotary was the only kill that was mine You sent the dogs after my scent, that's fine Yes, I have reasons for shame But I am not a dirty spiked that has sullied my good name Tonight I will wreak on two-armed Lopen some illegal action Are my answers to your satisfaction? Oplen: My God Stick: Gentlemen, let's go Rae: So? Oplen and Araris: The people won't know what we know Rae: Stick! How do I know you won't use this against me The next time we go toe to toe? Stick: Rae, rumors only grow And we both know what we know

Midnight, you come inthread to lurk around Quick fix, could end in burning flames or paradise Fade into view, oh, It's been a while since I have even heard from you (Heard from you) And I should just tell you to speak 'cause I Know exactly where it leads but I Watch you go lurk and lurk each time You got that barely in the game look in your eye And we got posts to read from players in our sights And when we go crashing down, we come back every time 'Cause silence never goes out of style, it never goes out of style You've got that homework to do in your university dorm And we got that hard working eyebags after a night of brainstorms And when we go crashing down, we come back every time 'Cause silence never goes out of style, it never goes out of style So it goes, your can't keep your wild eyes in the game Goes on home, lights are off you're going on Netflix I say "I've heard that you've been out and about with some other game, some other game" You say "What you've heard is true but I Can't stop thinking about this QF" and I I said "I've been there too a few times" But that's still doesn't make the lack of game-related context any less suspicious, @Devotary of Spontaneity and @Snipexe. If you two don't say more by the end of the cycle, my vote's going on you.

Itiah. Gancho. Show me how to lieYou're getting better all the timeAnd turning all against the oneIs an art that's hard to teachA faked overreactionSoothes away an unsuspecting herdAnd as you get back into lineA mob moves away from you Again, no link to the song because it has swearwords in it. It's called "You're Gonna Go Far Kid."

Give them only access to Worm powers that they know about It doesn't even have to be Worm, maybe only just powers associated with fictional superheroes.

It happened in AG3. Drake: It must be nice, it must be nice To have an elim team on your side It must be nice, it must be nice To have an elim team on your side Oplen: Ev'ry action has its equal, opposite reactions Thanks to Elandera, our votin' group fractured into factions Try not to crack under the stress, we're breaking down like fractions We smack each other in the thread, and we don't print retractions I get no satisfaction witnessing her fits of passion The way she talks and walks and points out errors with dispassion Our other players, our villagers, live ration to ration As the spiked robs 'em blind in search of trust to cash in This gal is askin' for someone to bring her to task Somebody gimme some dirt on this vacuous mass so we can at last unmask her I'll pull the trigger on her, someone load the gun and cock it While we were all watching, she got the villagers in her pocket Itiah and Oplen: It must be nice, it must be nice To have an elim team on your side It must be nice, it must be nice To have an elim team on your side Look back at analysis of her jokes Rae: Which I wrote Alv, Oplen, and Rae: The ink hasn't dried It must be nice, it must be nice To have an elim team on your side Drake: So she's been a thug without telling us Wouldn't a villager have kicked up more fuss? Oplen: Look in her eyes! Itiah: See how she lies Rae: Follow the scent of her enterprise Alv: Being a thug with two others Would rightly balance elim sisters and brothers Drake: If we don't stop it we aid and abet it Oplen: We have to lynch her Rae: Somebody has to stand up for Cali's South! Drake: Somebody has to stand up to her mouth! Itiah: If there's a fire you're trying to douse Alv and Itiah: You can't put it out from inside the house Oplen: I am a voter, I am complicit in Watching her grabbin' at power and kissin' it If the villagers ain't gon' listen To disciplined dissidents, this is the difference: This kid is out! Meanwhile, Elandera's supposed elim team: *sound of crickets* The song used was "Washington on Your Side" from Hamilton, if you want to find it. Watch out, there's some swears in there.

And with one PM You inspired a fire of devotion that lasts for a cycle What kind of player talks like this? To let us dangle at a cruel angle Oh, it must be in a PM I thought it might be dangerous and felt bad calling it out But you never said it inthread What kind of player talks like this? What kind of player? What kind of villager talks like this? What kind of villager?
-
Itiah: Look at me you may think you see Who I really am but you'll never know me Every day it's as if I play a part Now I see if I stay silent now I can keep my secrets but I'll get lynched Who is that player I see staring straight back at me? When will all the inthread reads show who I am inside? @I think I am here.

After looking at my time commitments for next month, I've realized I don't have time for this. I'm going to bow out for the next month, sorry.

Listen Eland'ra there ain't no action big enough Ain't no joke low enough Ain't no distancin' good enough To keep me from gettin' to you elim Remember the last game you were in Orlok found you and Wonko all joking From that day on, I made a vow To do behavior analysis Some way, some how Oh Elan there ain't no action high enough Ain't no joke low enough Ain't no distancin' good enough To keep me from gettin' to you elim

What year does Steelheart take place? I'm trying to figure out timing for character details here.

Two roads diverged for our Bort, And sorry he could not travel both And play the game, to enjoy the sport He looked down one as far as he could To see how it would make the game goeth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because he'd be gameless in a chair; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, he voted himself for that day! For knowing how silence leads on to silence, He doubted if he should ever come back. I shall be telling this to the court Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in the game, and Bort— He took the one without replacement, And that has made all the difference.

@LopenTheTwoArmedHerdazian I’ve been playin' around here for a while So some say that I’m intense or I’m insane You want a revolution? I want a revelation So listen to my declaration: We hold these truths to be self evident That all analysis can be useful And when I see you around I'mma compell you to put a vote down

I like that idea. How easy would it be to see through this mist, though? Heavy mist is going to cut down on visibility a lot.

Rae: Fools who run their mouths off wind up dead Elim: Yo yo yo yo yo What role you got? Cadmium: This one! Rae: Like I said Why do you act like we’re running out of time?Call for more votes like we're running out of time?Ev’ry hour you fight, like you’re running out of time

Huh, I guess. Resurrection isn't too common in the Wormverse. Maybe Brute 1 Mover 1 for the resurrection then, since Voidgaze also moves when reincarnating? What happens to her body when she dies?
-
Brute is just for superstrength/speed/survivability. Seems like Voidgaze is still as squishy as a maple, but resets when she resurrects, which fits a Breaker rating more.
-
Actually I've never rated powers using PRT classifications before this week We'll see how it goes. Resurrection would probably be a slight Breaker rating, for someone who can change/reset/manipulate their state of being in a way that's not shapeshifting into a living being. The exact number would depend on how long the resurrection works.

Rae: Let's get down to business to find the Spiked Did they send me quiet ones when I asked for fun? You're the saddest bunch I ever met But you can bet before we're through Newbies, we'll make analysts out of you Tranquil as a forest But on fire within Once you find your style You are sure to win You're a spineless, sad, inactive lot And you haven't got a clue Somehow we'll make analysts out of you Villager 1: I'm never gonna catch up inthread Say goodbye to those who knew me Villager 2: Boy, was I fool in school for cutting lit Straw: This girl's got 'em scared to death Elim: Hope she doesn't see right through me Now I really wish that I knew how to bluff Chorus: Be Aman Rae: We must be swift as the coursing river Chorus: Be Wilson Rae: With all the force of a great typhoon Chorus: Be Orlok Rae: With all the strength of a raging fire Mysterious as the dark side of the moon Welcome to the SE, @Gancho Libre. Aman, Wilson, Orlok, I'm sorry, I couldn't resist

The vanilla I'm doing (haven't thought of a name yet) is probably going to be accidentally spreading chaos in the refugee group via information that's wrong for the Reckonersverse. So, if you want a vanilla who encourages anybody with powers to fight or make things so their powers don't mess them up big-time later... Well, lets see how many people make it out of that group, hmm?

Names as shapers of people

Huh, didn't know that. That's cool. -

Since Dreok Crushthroat was a name given to himself, I don't think that's a good example. He wanted to bring retribution, so he named himself after that. I also think Domi was named that way because it's supposed to be loving and accepting, or that the word Omi was derived from Domi, instead of the first practitioners of Shu-Korath deciding it should be loving and accepting because it has Omi in its name.
