    The Epigraphs said that Hoid had a chance at divinity, but turned it down. Don't forget Shallan! She counts (now) too! Shallan, the person who has driven away Unmade, discovered Urithuru, and remembers everything

    Dark smoke is form corrupted Investiture, at least with Nightblood, so this could be Corrupted Investiture, in a different sense. https://wob.coppermind.net/events/250-warbreaker-annotations/#e7374

    Opening Scene: Ash falls from the sky, while the Sliver of Infinity rules with an iron fist. He has stamped out all that opposes him, dousing any flames of rebellion. The Nobles dance while The Skaa die, just outside of their Ballrooms. Many are either happy with this life, or resigned to it. But there are a few trying to gather support, trying to becoming the fire that will burn down the system. Rules: Welcome to Long Game 40, this game is based off of the Naming/Open Ended mechanic of LG18 and 33. Essentially there are no set actions that you can take, if you can justify it then it is possible. GM discretion exists. This will be a faction game, each faction being one of the Great Houses of Luthadel. You are competing against the other Great Houses to earn favor in the eyes of The Lord Ruler. The struggle has been going on for years. But something new has happened, a thought to be member of a Great House was revealed to be a Skaa Rebel infiltrating the house. The Nobles, of course, are outraged at this, and demand that the rest of the Skaa that have infiltrated the ranks of the Nobles be found, and so the manhunt begins… The game will end when either the Rebels have been wiped out by the Nobles, if the Rebels gain the support that they need, or if the Rebels outnumber the Nobles. If the Rebels are wiped out the Great House with the most Favor wins the game. The ways you can earn Favor listed below: Killing an Eliminator outside of the Lynch - 15 Starting a successful lynch on an Eliminator - 5 Participating in an Eliminator Lynch - 1 Posting at least 2 posts of 200 words each of RP in one round - 5 Posting at least 2 posts of 200 words each of Strategy/Planning in one round - 5 Attending a Noble Ball - 5 At the start of the game each house will get together and decide what their house will focus on. The focus of any given house allows one member of the house to take one action based off of the focus chosen each cycle. This action must be approved by the GMs. Foci: Weapons Subterfuge Travel Metal Crops Hazekillers Soldiers Other (GM approval required) Some players will recieve a role as a Misting. A Misting may burn whatever metal is assigned to them once a Cycle. The actions taken by burning a metal may be anything so long as it can be justified, and the GMs approve. Generally speaking the metals will follow the below: Pewter: Defense, Extra Life Tin: Spy, PM Creation Iron: Move, Protect, Steel: Move, Attack. Copper: Hide, Prevent Emotional Bronze: Knowledge Brass: Manipulate (Suppressive) Zinc: Manipulate (Active) Gold: Past info Atium: Unblockable Attack, Protect, Unblockable Action Example: Aonar is a really creative Steel Misting/Coinshot. He decides that he wants to do something that no one expected and decides to run away. He uses his Steel action to run away from everyone, and prevent all kills from hitting him. The GMs say that he can do that, but that there is a 25% chance that he will not be back in time to earn Favour, or participate in the lynch next cycle. There may or may not be secret roles. Probably not, unless I am lying Each night every house may send someone (and only one person) to a Noble Ball. When a player is sent to a Noble Ball they are put into a group PM with the other players that are sent to the Ball, and can not talk in the main thread, but can talk to their house in their doc. A player participating in a Noble Ball may still take actions, but they can only target other players at the Ball, while players outside of the Ball can not target those at the Ball. During a Ball the player's’ RP and Strategy posts will still count towards Favour. The Rebels have two possible win conditions, either outnumber the remaining villagers, or achieve enough Skaa Support to start a Rebellion. To start a Rebellion the Rebels require (Number of Villagers)*(25) = Support. The Rebels can gain support in the following ways: Kill a Noble outside of the lynch - 15 Posting at least 2 posts of 200 words each of RP in one round - 5 Posting at least 2 posts of 200 words each of Strategy/Planning in one round - 5 PMs are open, and require Aonar, Orlok, and me to be in them. Aonar will be helping GM this game, while Orlok will be the IM. If there are any questions ask below. Player List: The game will start at: 9:00 PM my time on Monday the 20th https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=LG+40%3A+Start&iso=20171120T21&p1=220 The day will last 46 hours, and the night will last 22 hours. Rollover will be 2 hours long. Rule Clarifications: Quick Links:

    Well, I finally have time and have remembered about this at a point in time that I am actually able to say some stuff, so. Hi. I will be returning to activity, and participating more in this game as of now. I don't (yet) have an opinion on Lemon, and I doubt I'll have time to read through the past cycles and see him following Rae, but I think I recall this being brought up a couple of cycles ago. If someone wanted to fill me in on what's going on, feel free to PM me, or just post here.

    Sorry, I've been quite busy recently, and about me being online..I have the Shard set to open up every time I open an internet browser, so I am always going to appear as online recently, even if I haven't followed the thread.
  18. Droughtbringer
    Nice to have you back! The way that you are pointing this out is slightly suspicious as well... you aren't pointing out anything new and useful, and are only saying "Hey look at me! I did something!" Trying to draw our attention towards one point that you have had going for you, while many more are against you.

    @Elbereth Elbereth You haven't been all that active, so I'll be starting a poke vote at least. Your only post was a long post, talking about a few different things. You mainly responded to other people's things. But I would like to see you be more active in this game, so...yeah. I don't have many leads yet, but I have a few things forming. Later this cycle I'll probably post a bit more on it, if I can get anything solidified.
  21. Droughtbringer
    I really haven't been, the times that I have been on I've posted. Which has been.... 3 times now? Most of when I was like LG39! Yeah! was when rollover was going on. But...I have no proof of that so...keep thinking the way that you are thinking. White text is fun. I still don't have any major reads on anyone, but I do have a bit of a plan, that I will share with...someone in case I die tonight, or get converted. Not much but still something to look into. I will share it tomorrow, so...yeah. We only have about 6 hours left in this cycle, so... @Arinian @Seonid @Orlok Tsubodai @Steeldancer @Straw @Jondesu @Araris Valerian @Elbereth @Paranoid King @Frozen Mint @Doc12 @Davus Well for some reason I can't tag Davus...so... If you guys would be so kind as to post your thoughts within the next 6 hours, or at least let us know that you are alive, it would be much appreciated.

    @Elbereth Although it doesn't matter as much at this point, here is my response still: The fact of the matter is, that at this moment, there is a ridiculously low chance of hitting the one person in the game that it matters that we, as the village, hits. If someone were to have seemed overly suspicious to me then I would have gladly lynched them, but I had no good reason to go after anyone specifically. So essentially we have next to no chance of progressing our own win con, less than in the average game, with no one that I specifically have standing out to me as being an Elim. Whereas the Elim’s always have a good way to progress their own win con in a game; by putting out a kill. For the elims to be nice they are essentially guaranteed to have a setback directly towards their own win con, whereas as the village we are essentially guaranteed to help the elims, especially in this game. Edit: @StrikerEZ Now that Aman is dead, care to share his plan with us?
  23. Droughtbringer
    Great idea! Do you have any recipes so far?
  24. Droughtbringer
    Good questions: Probably not quite as good answers: 1) Can a shard be splintered before its vessel dies? Kinda. A shard can use a large part of its power to cause a larger affect that what would otherwise be able to happen. This would essentially be a splinter. 2) Do we know how shards are splintered? Kinda. If you've read Mistborn: Secret History you get some ideas towards it, but we don't know much about that. Essentially you kill the Vessel* then probably do something along the lines of just attack the remaining power. 3) If a shard is splintered, can it ever be reformed? 4) Does a splintered shard still influence the world around it? Kinda. A splintered shard has pieces of it's power scattered across the area in which it was shattered, the Spren are a good example of this. The Spren, the Stormfather, and other things can still influence the world around it, but the shard as a whole is no longer a whole, similar to how Adonalsium is still able to do things even though he has been shattered. Only it's just his power in 16 pieces. *The vessel can be anything sentient. Cant find the WoB right now but it talked about how Yolen (The world of Hoid and the 16 vessels) had 3 sentient races on it, and that any of them could hold a shard. Beyond that we got a RAFO. The Stormfather: The Stormfather is what the community has been calling a Super Spren. We believe that there are 3 (maybe 4) of them. One for each of the 3 shards on Roshar. Stormfather: Honour Nightwatcher: Cultivation __________: Odium When Honour died he merged his Cognitive Shadow with the Stormfather, so he still has power and stuff, but...yeah. Not really more than that that I know.
