Harambe, I agree with Elodin. In Sanderson Elimination it is expected that you carefully formulate arguments and be able to explain your suspicions and actions. I am placing a vote on you and will remove it when you explain your suspicions. Harambe

I remember one time I was flying out of Vermont and the pilot and crew were an hour late and it took another hour to fix a problem with the engine and defrost the plane. The airline happened to be United.

1. How about trying to find better evidence instead of working with bad evidence? 2. I personally think that we should bring him back. He has a far greater chance of being good than being evil.

Pro tip for anyone in Philadelphia Airport: There is a store in the terminal F food court that has good pretzels and free chocolate dipping sauce. They also have really good Philly pretzel steaks (steak and cheese baked inside a pretzel).

I am thinking about running a follow up to QF18. I present... QF__:The Red Guile The last time The Chromia was invaded it ended quite badly for both sides. Two lone students were left to combat the last spies, and somehow lived to tell the tale. Years later The Chromia is once again in turmoil due to High Lord Andross Guile hiring assassins of The Order of The Broken Eye to kill the remaining students. Rules:

Yeah, I'm at 63% in the record book. I've never been one for end game activities so I can't get Icebreaker. My mood is better though because I made a voidwalker build that bakes my grenade cooldown 5 SECONDS. -

Playing Destiny with max discipline and strength as a stormcaller with arcbolt grenade, superconductor, chain lightning, feedback, and arc web while using zhalo supercell and claws of the ahamkara results in pure chaos. -

How to make a three layer, five ingredient chocolate pie!: Ingredients: 1 package (about 36) whole Oreos 1 cup (16 tablespoons) butter, divided 2/3 cup packed brown sugar 1 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream, divided 1 (12 oz) bag dark chocolate chips Pie pan (Around 10in by 2in) Instructions: Finely crush the Oreos with a food processor or blender. Stir crumbs together with 8 tablespoons melted butter until well combined. Press into the bottom and sides of a pie pan. Freeze crust for 10 minutes until set. Combine remaining 8 tablespoons butter and brown sugar in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until mixture begins to bubble. Continue cooking, whisking constantly, for 1 minute. Remove from heat. Slowly whisk in 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream until smooth. Cool caramel about 15 minutes. Pour the caramel over the Oreo crust, then return to freezer for about 30-45 minutes until just chilled and set. (You don’t want the caramel to fully freeze.) Place chocolate chips in a glass bowl. In a saucepan, bring 1 cup heavy whipping cream to a simmer over medium-high heat. Pour the cream over the chocolate chips and let sit for 5 minutes, then whisk until completely smooth. Pour the chocolate over the caramel and freeze for a final 60 minutes, until chilled and set. OR refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve. Before serving, sprinkle the top with salt.

Well, in RL I'm way more quiet and introverted. Also, did I ever mention that I have mild OCD and my favorite color is white? I also have a very dry sense of humor and enjoy classical music. Conversations with me are a bit disjointed because I'll think about what they said for a minute or two before answering. Around friends, libraries, and people holding a book I'm much more outgoing. I tend to spend a few hours each week at a public library and by now I'm recognized nearly instantly at most libraries in my area.

Once I considered writing a story about a farmboy that gets inducted into a cult. The cultists then perform a ritual that invades his mind with a being called Pale and then wipes his mind. The farmboy is returned to his previous life during which he discovers that he has gained the power to create and manipulate ice and decides to use it to hunt down and destroy a dangerous cult that is threatening the safety of his village. Unfortunately for him he starts having strange visions, hearing voices, and his body starts getting flat, cold, hard, and sharp. The voices and visions eventually consolidate into a strange, floating figure that exists in his mind that seems to be a humanoid figure made of ice that calls itself Pale. The farmboy finally hunts down and murders all the members of the cult while Pale begins to be able to control the farmboy as the farmboy's body becomes almost inhuman. As the farmboy kills the last member of the cult Pale reveals that the farmboy's transformation is complete and proceeds to ascend into the being shown in the visions. For the last few chapters of the book the farmboy is trapped in his own mind and is forced to watch Pale take over the kingdom and rule tyrannically over it. The last scene is Pale murdering the farmboy's parents. This final act of cruelty drives the farmboy insane causing the book to end. After I finished planning it I realized that no one would want to read something that dark.

Long Game 28: The Awakening at the House on the Hill
Straw replied to Wyrmhero's topic in Sanderson Elimination
Wilson, I would like to make a few explanations. 1. Around the time of day three I found out that I had quite a few RL things to do. 2. The reason I said "crud" was because I had meant to take my vote off of Assassin and place in on Araris due to me personally realizing that I had given insufficient reasoning and Assassin didn't seem very evil. 3. DA has a reputation for being a bit erratic in the past and due to what I have seen before of him I thought that he might be using his reputation to his advantage. I also thought that his accusation was a tad abrupt. 4. The evidence against Dani seemed so large the on only logical thing to do was to vote for Dani. Wilson, I will send you a PM during the Night turn so we can further talk.- 980 replies
