... and there's my comfortable four person tie Illwei
-
Wow, there is a lot of thread in this thread. sorry for my low engagement, it's been a busy week. I don't think Kas is Sja (as much as I think he deserves a quiet rest on his porch). Mat and Drought read good to me... or at least not Sja. Either one is a decent conversion and drought is suddenly more active... I want to village read Drought for this cycle. I have liked his posts. Next cycle, who knows. I want to go through and quote Illwei's posts line by line. They have many inconsistencies and assumptions, and I want to point each out individually. However, Kas has done a decent job of that and I really just don't have time. Their activity and content are completely NAI to me. I honestly can't remember playing a single game with Illwei where they weren't an elim. These posts all sound normal to me for Illwei, so I naturally suspect them. Who knows though. Oh wait! I should amend that. I don't think I can remember a game where Illwei wasn't an elim, but survived the first day. We've killed them day one before, and they were always village. All that to say I'm not willing to seal the casket on Illwei just yet. Outside those reads, I'm not sure. It looks like it's a three-way tie between Araris, Illwei, and Tani. That's just the way I like it and I think the way I'll leave it. If there was a vote for Chan, Xino, Mint, or myself, I'd probably add on to one of those to make it four ways.

Hi, I'm here. On the Kasimir kill, I wish I had put more time into accusing people to get their responses. At this point in the cycle, I'm afraid four hours means we should be firming up our lynch options rather than bringing more into the fray so I'll get on the Kasimir is a stormspren wagon. My tinfoil hat is yelling at me saying this is Sja Anat trying to gain village credit, but I don't think that would be Kasimirs way to play this. Reasons for voting Kasimir 1 He asked us to 2 Prevent a powerful conversion (both in role and player) that would only take one charge. 3 Everyone continues to play a fun conversion game. Tinfoil thoughts 1 Kasimir wants to gain our trust as Sja Anat, will survive the first kill and pretend that makes him a bad choice for Sja, but still gets two conversions for a three elim team in a relatively small game. 2 Kasimir regrets signing up and is telling us he is a storm spren so we attack and kill him and he can relax in the spec doc. As long as we don't trust him based on his surviving, lynching Kas this cycle may not be the worst way to go. Meta thoughts

Ohhh. I was trying to tie that name to 'War of the Ring' and having no luck
-
I'd like to play. Character TBD

Welcome back! I think the most important thing to know is the super secret tenements and who is in which one. The second most important thing to know is that I am village. Other than that, I would only claim your tenement to someone you trust implicitly.
-
No worries. Take care of the real stuff, and we'll be here when you come back. Good luck
-
Reading today's may be enough to start. We've mostly rehashed last cycle anyway.

Spoilering so I don't take the whole page A few more thoughts: I don't like the train on Matrim at the moment. If the lynch is currently V/V, he likely has the more useful ability. I'm happy to keep infodumping in thread the generic information I find, but I'm also not planning on selling anyone out. I know what tenement Azmine was in, but I don't know how useful or relevant that is now. I'm happy to answer any more questions. I hope to post a reads order if not a reads list before rollover, but I'm finishing this right now at work. Work ends for me the same time as rollover, so it will all depend on how busy we are.
-
I promise a nice hot plate of answering everyone one by one when I wake up tomorrow, but for now it seems the common question is why would I phish the info/what do I get. A) I'm going for the additional win. B ) I haven't really found much interesting to do with my role, so I'll contribute in a different way. C) I like getting people to tell me stuff they shouldn't (I'm a bit of a servant to the beholding). D) I figured that if the elims already have this information, we may as well have it, too Further specifics to come when I've slept

I'm sorry, I tried and my constitution isn't strong enough to play the game in High Imperial. I have thoughts and it takes so long to translate them that I lose half of my content while trying to phrase it all and the other half in translation. I also have an off feeling about Matrim at the moment. Not really enough to act on, but my gut is telling me he's hiding something. I am getting the same vibes from him here that I saw in the MR led by Kynedath and Zillah last year. Also this is an interesting point. I highly doubt the elims will get a kill for cycle one. There is just way too much up in the air. I imagine they are spread across two or three tenements, and while my list may have helped them find a fourth, it'll be really impressive to see if they find any one of us without the use of an informant. That's assuming I wasn't lying or lied to and listed a false tenement out in the thread. Rereading the rules, it looks like the informant only gets one shot because it's a location role, so it's possible all the elims are informants. Given a four-member team they need to kill four of us and lynch four of us to win. That's their perfect game. If they have four informants, or three informants and an elder, they have a chance. However, the elims won't get back their scan result until the start of day two. I think we can all rest easy tonight, unless we were careless in Private Messaging.

True. Good point

Wasing the welcoming the playing the new! Exciting the many to playing. Thanking and wishing good the game for all. Having suspecting for over new sounding Blanky. @Esooa Esooa Having suspecting for not the killing Firebug and maybe Burnie. ( @Archer and @The Unknown Order respectively) Eron, Scorched @Matrim's Dice SS, Wanting to hearing good the reasoning to lynching the fluffy? @Squirrelwatcher

I'd like to join. I was testing coming back with the QF and it looks like I can commit to about one good post per day. It was a little rough with the speed of a quick fix, but three analysis posts per cycle might be better with the long game format. I'll play Leek, an older skaa who never remembers where he is and always shouts loudly his opinions uncaring of whether others hear them or not. He also has the tendency to mix up or even reassign names to people.
-
Thank you so much for running a small game @Matrim's Dice We'll played Devo! You're logic was sound, if a little misplaced. I'm going to post my thoughts when I can get on a computer.
-
Ooh. That makes a lot of sense. I'm inclined to think Elandera is the traitor. It makes more sense to me that she'd want to get rid of TUO than anyone else as he seemed likely to lead a tunnel on her for the rest of the game. So putting the killing vote on Devotary almost clears Devotary. (Barring a last minute hammer.) I suspect an Elandera-Archer Team. Devotary
-
Lotus, any reason why Elandera? Other than that it creates a tie? I am rather fond of ties, but we're coming to where it's less useful. Lotus @Lotus Edit: Bolded my vote to make it easier to see
-
Yeah sorry. I was entertaining guests and it went a few hours later than I expected. I didn't find Steel's poke vote especially egregious. (Insert meme of being stabbed here). I think I'll bring it to a tie. And the random gods say: bad wolf (I just realized I rolled for three people. It would have been awkward if they had chosen me) Edit: oops I wasn't counting archer twice.... Oh. No this works

Lemon looked around. Ghost was suddenly very quiet. Uncharacteristic, Ghost was usually quite chatty. Especially when he got nervous and he had definitely been nervous a few minutes ago. Lemon puckered his lips thoughtfully. Suddenly, S.T.A.R Radio started playing a great tune over the radio! Lemon puckered his lips in enjoyment as the last Krell ship plummeted out of the sky to some sweet tunes. Lemon Squinted to follow its trajectory until it was just a little grey blur. This was far before it reached the ground, but Lemon was confident the Krell had, in fact, been shot down. He puckered his lips in triumph. Two other ships swooped around and looked to be aiming for Lemon! Traitors! They shot and Lemon did his best to evade, shooting (and missing) what he was fairly certain was a nearby piece of debris with his light-line. Luckily they weren't even aiming in his general direction. He heard Maximum give a positive kill on Imposter over the radio. That was odd. Lemon puckered his lips in consternation. Lemon wasn't particularly fond of Imposter, but it didn't seem right to shoot him out of the sky. And where was Ghost? Surely he had something to say about it. Lemon puckered his lips, concerned. Ghost had always been chatty but kind. Lemon squinted to turn down the music S.T.A.R Radio was playing, and tried to catch up on what was happening. He puckered his lips in concentration as he squinted to try to pick Ghost's ship out in the falling debris. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OOC: Well done, Maximum, for bringing down a traitor! I'm now relying on you to do it again... Then again, maybe it's a bit early to vote Bad Wolf out of the game. I'm'a wait for her to at least show up. Distributions are tricky and I've never successfully guessed one. I don't think we'd have any snipers, but who knows. Maybe we have five light-lance experts and three snipers. That would be a game! I don't generally like the "everyone claim at the beginning" strategy. It would reveal role madness akin to what I described, but I like the feeling of prying information from cold, dead eliminator fingers. By all means, I'd love to know what you are, but I don't think I'm going share until I've solved the game. It is still up for debate whether information helps the village or the eliminators more, but with the added spinciness of no elim doc, I'm keen to keep the info away from them. ------------------------ That's all the time I have for right now. I'll finish responding to everyone in a couple hours Sorry Steel Sorry for being so lurky for the first few hours. There will be more lurking tomorrow while I am at work, but after that, I will be all over this game.
-
That makes sense to me. It'll be a small game, but I'm excited for the group we have

AFTERMATH A Worthy Opponent Quick Fix 48 I am Fourth of the Dark, taken too soon. You have no obligations. Death comes for us all, in the end. -Gears "It's Fourth! He's the one." Rinala exclaimed. "I remember I saw him with a copy of a piece of diagram before we came here" "What, no. I don't even know what this diagram is." Fourth assured. "But I know Daziron has been the one killing people!" The Diagrammists smirked within themselves. The diagram never failed. This had all been foretold. Fourth Lunged at Rinala to kill her, but Kriti blocked his path. Kriti stood over Fourth. "We must kill this diagrammist." ------------- The Ghostblood looked on. A moment of doubt showed on his face. He quickly replaced it with a determined smile. "Finish the rest of them. They clearly aren't worthy of becoming ghostbloods." Without hesitation, Daziron turned and stabbed Windrunner Supreme through the chest. Shocked but recovering, some recruits moved to kill Daziron, but Kriti was there in a flash to defend him. "It's no use." Shard of Reading said from behind. "We have already determined all your abilities... and weaknesses." Turtle and Rinala grabbed the remaining hopefuls and shoved them to the ground in front of Daziron. "why?" the words died on their lips as they were summarily executed. -------------------- "How did you know?" Rinala asked the Ghostblood. "I'll hold on to my secrets." He said. "But you have proven your worth. Welcome to the Ghostbloods. You are free to go. We will contact you with your next assignment." Gears (4): Matrim's Dice, Ghanderflaffle, Quinn, Shard of Reading Quinn (3): Lotus, Gears, Kings Way Gears was Lynched! He was a Loyal Connected The Windrunner Supreme was killed! He was a Loyal Recommended Congratulations Diagrammists! Matrim's Dice, Ghanderflaffle, Quinn, Turtle, and Shard of Reading have won the game.
