I'm pretty sure if you used Ithkuil, you could fit an entire multi-paragraph post into those 200 characters. EDIT: They're supposing that you're both eliminators, in which case it would serve the eliminator team to keep you alive to get rid of your grandbow (I think). EDIT2: I just realised that as of tomorrow I won't be able to be active until Saturday, just so everyone knows.

Damnation. Well, sorry Wilson.

If the number of thieves was going to vary based on player sign ups, wouldn't it make more sense to say that there would be "thief(ves)" or something alike to it? This is, as far as I'm aware, the only time the quantity of any role or item was actually mentioned, so I see no reason to simply disregard it. Hence that being the weakest point (I do actually agree with you on that interpretation). My other two points stand. But this requires accepting multiple assertions from various people, which I'm not prepared to do, especially for people that I've already stated I'm suspicious of. In addition, saying the thief would have no reason for having a spanreed is a bit far, I can see them wanting to have private communications with people - building trust and finding out what items people have (the former serving the latter) are definitely going to be things the Thief is going to want. A single night of communication is better than nothing, and definitely better than wasting a role action and getting nothing for it.

I'll sign up as Kai Lo, professional sneaky guy, if that's alright.

Singular indeterminate article - there is only one thief, and you don't know who it is. Given English's handy plurality-indeterminate third person pronoun, the fact that a singular pronoun is used implies that there is only one Thief. Not "Thieves' Win" or "Thief Win", both of which could imply plural, but "Thief's Win", the win of the one thief. (Admittedly, this is the weakest point of the four) In addition, this is supposed to be a rerun of LG5, and people refer to "the thief", which implies there was only one then as well. (Actually, this might be the real weakest, but eh) Mailli has stated multiple times that there are no secret rules, that is, anything we know about how the games work from the original post is going to be true. If there were going to be more thieves, I doubt he would have used the language quoted above, as, at least by my standards, that would have fallen under secret rules. As an analogy, if someone said "There is an apple" and then you discovered two apples, you would think they were keeping something back from you, behind a lie. From this, I think there's an enough evidence to say that there's only one Thief. So, what can we learn from this? First, someone is lying about the spanreeds. DC claims that someone stole their spanreed, but that it wasn't Elk. Yet, if it wasn't Elk, who stole the spanreed? In this case, either DC is telling the truth which implies there to be another thief, or Mailli was telling the truth in his OP, implying that either Elk did steal the spanreed or DC's spanreed wasn't stolen and was given away for some reason (or maybe even that they still have it). Given the fact that Mailli is the GM, I'm inclined towards the latter two options. There is of course the third option, which is that DC never had a spanreed in the first place, and that this is just a ruse by DC and Wilson. Given that we know Wilson was in contact with basically everyone two nights ago, and that DC and Wilson had at least somewhat an extended conversation, this is a possibility - though if memory serves, DC was in contact with Nyali as well (Nyali, could you affirm this for us, thanks). DC and Wilson, can I have comments on this from you. Wilson, you proposed the possibility of another thief, so I'd like your thoughts on this as well. The second thing we can learn from this is that there is no longer a thief, which means that we're generally safe from having our items stolen. It also means that if someone cuts off spanreed communication with you, they've done it on purpose (either feigning breaking communication, or giving away the spanreed). One last thing, Mailli, for artifab spanreed conversations, would you normally go through and in the conversation explicitly state that they're closed?

I don't trust me either - you're in good company (or bad depending on your perspective )
-
Believe me or not, but this is my first mafia/SE game I've ever played, as far as memory serves.
-
I was certainly trying to raise the possibility thereof, though I will admit that on further thought it doesn't seem likely (thanks to some objections I hadn't previously considered).
-
I'd also like to add, regarding the Grandbow user, is it possible that this was a bit of misdirection? Perhaps to cover up future kills as simple mistakes?

Yo. Admittedly I should have posted a bit yesterday, but my day consisted entirely of school and sleep Anyway, I voted for DC partially because they seemed suspicious over the course of my conversation with them yesterday, and partially because I didn't want to waste a vote. That being said, not going to deny that I might have followed some popular trails, more for lack of being able to get a read on anyone else than anything (am I allowed to still pull the newness card? ) I'm tempted to say I'm still quite suspicious of DC, and I'm gonna add Wilson to that list as well. This thing with PMs and Nyali (who until now I've been inclined to trust, at least to some extent), even if it does resolve to nothing, is still for the moment interesting, and I'd rather throw my lot behind both of them being suspicious than backing one or the other. To be honest, their interactions seem like they could be cover for some actual plan going on between the two that they're trying to hide (maybe if they're both GB and one gets taken down, the other isn't associated with them but still has an excuse for acting on communications early in the game? That only makes a little bit of sense, though, now that I think of it). Most likely that Wilson's complaints are genuine, but I'd like to explore all possible routes, just for thoroughness' sake.
-
Fair enough.
-
Can I ask why the thread title has been changed. I am very confused. Also, in terms of suspicions, DeathClutch19 is my main suspicion, due to reasons given in the previous few pages (can summarise if needed). I don't have any other major suspicions so, sorry mate.
-
Seconding this.
-
*claps* Heiring would mean you're anticipating it though, I think.
-
I was more interested in why you'd be needing a T1A slot free, but no mind now it seems.

So I found this on theoryland...

I just realised I need to get Alcatraz for my cousin -
In addition, if you were using your first slot, you'd most likely be doing a Shardblade or Grandbow. Unless you wanted to make a random potshot at a vaguely suspicious player, you'd need more information than seems to be available to use the Pain Knife or Soulcaster.
-
I'll hold you to that for when (if) we do get PM.
-
Seems suspicious that you'd need all of them. Chances of having 3 items seems low.
-
I mean why declaring an heir is more effective during the day. Unless of course you have something particular you need the night actions for?
-
Why'd you say that?
-
On my side, I never took it as such, don't worry. Is that list in addition to the previous one by the way?
-
Right, I'm here - I was away with school over the weekend so I couldn't partake. I've been reading up on everything that's happened over the day and am about to reread now, so will be able to make some (hopefully) useful commentary shortly.

Eshonai has struck be as a to be Willshaper from basically the moment I understood what the Willshaoers were. She's described as the explorer, having made maps and explored the land outside of the Listener homeland. She was also shown to be excited by excited by novelty when she went to take stormform (if I remember correctly, she was excited immediately before, if slightly reluctant earlier). Also, on a meta level, we know she's getting her own book, and every other character in the first cycle is either a radiant or pseudoradiant (in the entire series maybe). In addition, I think it would definitely fit the theme of magic returning to the world if Eshonai redeemed herself with the Stormfather after taking stormform and then went on to be the first Listener KR, having the spren finally return to the Listeners.

I'm interested in knowing whether this is what he needs to do to achieve his own goals, or whether this is what he NEEDS to do, as in compelleed to do for whatever reason.
