The switch to Asterion was simply to try and prevent an inactive from getting lynched. I personally prefer to have a game where I lose, where everyone is active, then a game where I win where I am the only one active. This means that, to come closer to achieving this, we can not just lynch the inactives, but need to reach out and encourage them to come back into the game. That being said, we also need (sorry, meta stuff) to generally encourage everyone to participate in discussion, and have some form of punishment if they don't, but I don't think just lynching them is the best way to do this. Inactives really, just end up breaking the balance on games. I just want discussion, really. If it sounds fishy so be it, but I just want to make sure that we take a look at everyone that we have not hard cleared for the village, and even then we still need to be careful. This doesn't apply yet, but I think that we should be talking a look at every person playing, and not just the people who are immediately suspicious. EDIT: The extension would be nice

This! (see above quote) is discussion! You see, the way that you are reacting to my vote gives us information. The way that I respond, etc. all gives us information. So, although it wasn't a instant Discussion Generator, it still does generate discussion. Continuing on through your posts: In general I am getting a villager read from your posts, you seem to want what is best for the village, but I still have a feeling that something is off in them. I can't point it out, but it is just a bit of a gut read. This may be from one of the past games I've played with you, though. So I'm not going to be pushing a lynch on you, but I won't be defending you at all. (And this post has an extremely "I'm washing my hands of this" type of feel to it... So new person! I think that @Darkness_ has been sounding suspicious; he has a sarcastic sounding tone to his posts, and hasn't put forth much useful discussion in his posts, which may be his play style (Don't remember the last game I played with him) or could be the fact that he is an eilm, and trying to distance himself from the thread. So, my vote will be going on Darkness for now.

Well, this tie certaintly looks interesting. A budgie

I prefer lynching a lurker to a complete inactive. So Araris Valerian, Asterion

I don't think that we should. Lynching inactives, at this point, is practically useless. We want to be able to generate information this game, instead of just lynching inactives. If that makes sense.

Don't be mean to Alvron! Alvron is amazing! I'll be reading back over last cycle and posting my thoughts soonishly.

You seem to want to lynch Steeldancer a decent amount, any reason why? It just seems kinda rude Honestly though, that gives me a bit of an... not elim read, but an off read for you. Sorry for not posting earlier, I was watching and waiting. Not many thoughts for now, but I will be looking back through the early parts of the day and posting something during the night cycle about my reads for the day. If anyone has a problem with this, too bad For sake of generating everything I will be putting my vote on Araris Valerian to generate discussion, I should be getting on shortly before the cycle ends to change this if needed, and also before then.

*pokes head in* I'll be trying a new strategy (for me) this game, and doing tons of analysis, so i'll try to make one big post per cycle where I go over all of my reads.

@Alvron Thank you! I remember sending that message, and I had some form of justification in my head but... don't remember it any more. Probably was something like "Alvron is amazing, he probably is used to be unkillable. I should remind him that he isn't,"

Arrinian changed his action 3 times after cycle ended... (I didn't accept them, but he was very nervous)

A hooded figure strode through the dark streets, deftly weaving her way through the streets. The wind howled and kicked up tufts of ash, but she only pulled her robe tighter around itself. Her dark clothing blended almost perfectly with the night, but her clumsy movements and furtive glances gave her away to the seasoned observer. ArSuun smiled as he watched her. From his position on the rooftops of Keep Entrone, he could see her every action. “Riri Aurette,” he murmured. “I have such great plans for you.” --<<--<<<-0->>>--->>- Riri snuck across the streets, darting from corner to corner. As always, she wore her camouflage cloak, an Aurette specialty. She couldn’t even begin to count how many times it had saved her. Before, she had used used it to sneak out to see Variel at night. Lately, however, she’d been using it for...other purposes. She reached an intersection and turned. The night was eerily silent. Unlike before, her new boots didn’t click across the ash-stained cobblestones. She missed the noise. Riri desperately wanted to hum, to talk, to do anything to take her mind off of the task at hand, but she couldn’t. She had to stay silent, so she wouldn’t be caught. She was the last of them now. The hopes of the skaa rebellion rested on her. --<<--<<<-0->>>--->>- Behind him, someone cleared his throat. ArSuun looked turned to face his employers, members of the skaa rebellion. "Ahh, Grayson, Louis, how kind of you to finally show up," he drawled. "I was beginning to think that our deal was off." Grayson's eyes narrowed. "Don't act so uppity with us. You were the who wanted to wait another two weeks, even after you asked for more atium --" Louis put a hand on Grayson's shoulder and locked eyes with him. A moment later, Grayson snorted and rolled his eyes. "Mike, are you ready for the swap?" "Ready? Hell yeah I'm ready. I've been watching this girl for over a month now. I know her like I know the back of my hand. Right now, she's sneaking a message to her boyfriend so they can meet up somewhere and go all kissy-kissy, but her brother's gonna break it up as usual. Now, there's a million and one better ways to do this, but Riri ain't a thinker, let me tell you that." His mouth quirked up in a smile. "Trust me, she's perfect." --<<--<<<-0->>>--->>- Finally, Riri found the house she was looking for. Keep Hasting. It loomed above her, tall and forbidding, with high spires that looked uncomfortably like spears. Somewhere inside lay Jerol Hasting, her target. There had to be a way to get in. Riri looked over the building, but couldn’t see anything that would let her enter quietly. She couldn’t enter through the main door, which was sure to be guarded. There had to be another way. She looked around again. There it was! A window. She sidled up next to it, took out her knife, and smashed it in, point first. --<<--<<<-0->>>--->>- Grayson brushed off Louis's hand and got right up in ArSuun’s face. "You said that you'd pick someone important," Grayson snarled. Globs of spit flew from his open mouth. "Not some teenager!" ArSuun gently but firmly pushed Grayson away. "Woah, woah, woah. Give a man some space, won't you? Riri Aurette is important. She's got her own little circle of friends, who does what she does and says what she says. She practically runs half of the rumormill." He saw Grayson open his mouth and quickly hurried on. "No one's gonna notice if she acts a little dimmer than usual, trust me. She's important enough for us to infiltrate the nobility, but not important enough for anyone to pay any real attention to her." Beside them, Louis nodded his head thoughtfully. "I can see that," he said. "Grayson, calm down. He's doing everything we asked him to do." "Good good, someone gets it," ArSuun said. "Now, let's start before Riri sneaks away, shall we?" --<<--<<<-0->>>--->>- Riri knew that the sound of the window breaking would bring guards, but she hadn’t had any other choice. She raced through the halls and checked each room she passed. Broom closet, guest room, storage room, nothing. Finally, at the end of the hall, she found him. Jerol Hasting, sleeping fitfully. “No! No! I won’t let you take me again,” he whimpered. “No…” His voice broke. Riri flinched and stepped back. A moment later, she walked closer to him. She’d heard the rumors, of course, that ever since his beating, he’d never left his room, that he’d been left comatose, and the Hastings were scrambling to cover up their mistake. She’d known it was bad, but had somehow never connected it to...this. --<<--<<<-0->>>--->>- They crept to the edge of the roof and watched as Rhiannon Aurette knocked on window of Keep Entrone. Then she turned and walked right under their roof. Grayson dropped down from the edge, right on top of her. ArSuun turned his face so he wouldn't have to watch. A few moments later and it was done. ArSuun climbed down from the edge of the roof. When he saw the body, he grimaced. The bruises around her neck didn’t paint a pretty story. "I need some privacy for this, yeah?" A sick feeling rose in his throat. I’m sorry... --<<--<<<-0->>>--->>- Riri plunged the knife into Jerol’s neck. He screamed, so she wrapped his pillow over his mouth, smothering him. The bed under him gradually turned crimson as the blood pumped out of his body. She turned away, feeling sick. She repressed the urge to vomit. This...it was just the same as the others...the other kills… It was worth it. Had to be. For the cause, right? --<<--<<<-0->>>--->>- By the time the nobleman Variel opened his window, all he would see was a piece of paper with neat, cursive handwriting left in his window planter. Any evidence of something gone wrong had been cleaned up, hidden with piles of ash. Riri Aurette was long gone. In her place, ArSuun was making his way to Fountain Square. --<<--<<<-0->>>--->>- Riri Aurette walked out of Keep Hasting, still feeling sick. She drew her cloak around her, hyperventilating. Breathe, Riri. In, out. In, out. Breathe. Something clattered on the cobblestones near her. A coin? Was there a coinshot nearby? Riri backed up against a wall and looked skywards. A dark figure shot towards her. She strained her eyes trying to make out who they were. Lord Faron? How was it possible? He’d said he was a Lurcher! Faron extended his hands toward her. A moment later, a coin slammed into Riri. Then another, and another, and another. She slumped down the wall. -->-->>-|o|-<<---<- When Faron came down to check the woman’s pulse, he found nothing. Sightless eyes stared back at him. Stupid skaa. She deserved it. He spat on the body. Then, for good measure, he drew his obsidian sword and chopped her head off. He flew off into the mists, satisfied with his work this night. -->-->>-|o|-<<---< Once Lord Faron had left, Riri’s body straightened and stood up. The wounds the coins had left closed. Her arm groped around for her head and put it back on. “This is way above my pay grade,” ArSuun grumbled. “I was fine with infiltration, a little less with committing murder, but now decapitation? Rust the skaa, they’re all dead anyways. I’m not doing this anymore.” He wiggled his arms and legs, making sure that he’d regrown all of his nerves properly. Then he walked off to find the place he’d stashed his atium. The skaa rebellion was dead. All credit goes to Rae for the writeup. Rae has been killed! She was the last Skaa! She had no role! The game is now over! Final Favor Counts: 1. 121 2. 86 3. 87 4. 71 My thoughts will be posted later, but good game everyone! House 1 wins!

The cycle is now closed! The next thing will not be up for a while, probably 12ish hours cause I'm exhausted.

Adela stood before the assembled nobles, each one of the scrutinizing her in their own way. A few of them whispered, Adela being obviously excluded from the conversation. Someone stood up, and announced "We have come to a decision! Adela you have been found guilty a treason, and consorting with Skaa. You will now be put to death." Adela opened her mouth to respond, but, with a wave of a hand, half a dozen coins flew towards her, silencing her protests before they could even start. Brightness Radiant has been lynched! She was a Noble Copper misting! This cycle will end: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=LG+40+Night+end&iso=20171220T19&p1=4975 Player list:

This cycle will be extended 2 hours. This will not affect the following night cycle. Sorry for any inconvenience.

I was assuming that Nightblood was his spren, but I've been thinking that since the end of WoR, so I'm biased.

I'll sign up as Joe.

Should Droughtbringer sign up? @A Joe in the Bush

Question: What times will the GM's be the most available in general? Is there a set of times where we will likely not be able to contact the GMs?

I don't have a life, so, with Chrsitmas break coming up I'll have plenty of time to play this game.

Lady Noodlington knew she was being followed, something was moving in the night, slowly following her. "Show yourself!" She yelled into the darkness, and a man in dark clothing stepped out into the night. The way that he had followed her showed that he was specially trained, and knew what he was doing. A smile appeared on his lips as three other people, that Lady Noodlington had not noticed jumped out of the shadows and attacked her, killing her quickly. A Budgie has been killed! He was a Noble 1. 106 2. 86 3. 87 4. 71

"Darquez! We all think that you are amazing and all that, but we don't trust you. We really should, though" The assembled nobles shouted. Then they killed her. Shaney was Lynched! She was a Normal Noble! Shaney requested the writeup to be written this way (almost, kind of), but you should go give her an upvote! She deserves it! Or two upvotes! Maybe three!

The Skaa rushed around the town, looking for their target. But, it seemed that whenever they were told where they were somewhere they moved somewhere else... almost as if they were flying. Someone was attacked! They survived! Favour: 1. 101 2. 86 3. 87 4. 61 Player List:
