My parents are getting divorced.

They just announced this to the family today, and I have no idea what to think. I'm angry, yet also I feel strangely disconnected. I don't really know what to do or how to feel.

Tomorrow, I wake up early to drive to Quincy, Massachusetts for Readercon fun! Got clothes packed, cat set to be taken care of and toll money because I haaaate driving through Pennsylvania. I'm going to minimize time there and drive through New York State. 

And avoid crazy Connecticut drivers.

Another CT native?

Sorry I guess I shouldn't post well driving and doing voice to text my apologies. Hahah it's more me just brainstorming out loud and posting it. I'll try not to do this anymore

No that's fine I guess it makes sense with the voice to text thing... I'm just a bit of a nitpicker

@bdoble97 Can you please fix the opening post a bit? The lack of punctuation and this "Earth bringer" hurts my eyes so much...

^^^^^

I honestly don't know what you're asking. Are you saying that based on the cover of a novel Jasnah is instantly the most powerful? Any character can be considered the most powerful in a certain situation. 

Seriously dude this is just a stream of consciousness please fix it. You stray off topic a lot and it makes it hard to understand.

Honestly, I don't see Odium being the main antagonist of the Cosmere. Currently, I don't see there being any one antagonist. He is in opposition to Hoid and the people of Roshar, but I don't see him being the main enemy of the Cosmere. If I'm not mistaken there's still whatever Harmony is keeping at bay... There are multiple potential antagonists for the Cosmere, and I don't see any one of them being the singular enemy.

All I have to say is reiterating The One Who Connects. Finish the book. 

And for good measure stay of the site til you do. I'm amazed it hasn't been spoiled for you already. 

I managed to spoil it for myself :/. But @piscian18 I think you will be pleasantly surprised. It's very satisfying.

@Sunbirb@A Budgie because you guys are frequent players.

I literally JUST saw this. Can you tag me next time please? I really want to play.

I'm confused, what do Ghostbusters and Wonder Woman have to do with each other? Aside from Chris Pine.

 

Chris Pine was in ghostbusters? I thought that was chris hemsworth.

I saw it a few days ago, and I have to say it's not nearly as good as people think it is. I like the middle and end, but the beginning to me, makes NO sense. It's very random and, while necessary, is barely coherent. Some of the characters are very two dimensional and it's very obvious that most of the characters are not organic. Besides Steve, Diana and Ares, most of the characters are cliche and throwaway. I did like the ending, though.

Good bye, BB, you changeling you.

There's not much to say, besides: Ornstein

What did you get that detention for? What kind of mischief were you up to? 

The hooligans that my friends and I are, we got into some horseplay and I hit my friend on the back of the head in front of the dean of students. 

I got to spend my first day of summer(hooray) cleaning out trash cans and doing inventory, because I got a detention on the last day. Yet, for some reason, I don't feel to mad. It was good to do some real work, and I scavenged some candy from lockers.

Alright and not quite perfect (perfect would have been catching a changeling last round).

DA, BB, jedal, Ornstein.

As least 2 of these are elims. So let's get lynching!

Well, it's not me. Bridge Boy has been pretty active, and both DA and Ornestein have been inactive for a while. We might want to start with them, simply because they have been lurking for the majority of the time, and neither has contributed anything very eventful.

Really sorry guys. As I said I have been super focused on finishing up the year and as such I haven't really been able to be active in the thread. 

Now, I've just skimmed through what's been happening these last few cycles, and I am so happy that we managed to get two of the Changelings! However, the loss of the element of generosity this round is a heavy blow. I agree with what has been said about pegasi. And I'm going to place my vote on Ecthelion III, because if I remember correctly Brightness did say she gave the element to Crimsn.

Frankly, I'm in the mood for a Contribution Crusade. And there's a Pegasus vote on Frozen Mint, so I'm going to go like this:

Anyone want to help me get rid of an inactive?

I'm trying to get a lot of work done right now, it is the end of year for me so I can't really be focused on this game until tomorrow afternoon. I'll try to catch up by then. Only reason I came online was because Jondesu mentioned me in a post, and I happened to be flipping through.

Personally.... I don't really think this will do too well. It's rushed. Avengers took something like 6 movies to build up to, just so that it would be good. It was a tremendous payoff to all of this buildup. Justice League is just so DC can get to the same point as Marvel. Wonder Woman and Aquaman look like the only two good things that will be in that movie. I'm not really sure I like Ezra Miller playing the Scarlet Speedster, nor do I really enjoy Ben Affleck's Batman.

But tbh I was just saying that if several ponies agreed with rand already it doesn't really give much info if you just vote on one of them randomly right? I don't know if Randuir is good or bad but the way I red his post it just seemed more helpful than an elim would be is all.

 

I have to agree with you here. The things rand has said so far doesn't point to him as either an elim or townie, so it wouldn't be wise for us to lynch him. However, I think it would be wise if the person who held the mark of Honesty checks him just in case.

Jon gives me info if he's guilty. This does not mean that he's likely to be guilty.

Randuir's helpful post does not prove his innocence. It's just a helpful post.

On that note, I'm retracting my vote on Paranoid King. Sorry about that my guy.

This is both touching and absolutely hilarious at the same time. Warning for explicit language.

Eragon has possibly one of the most vague magic systems I know of. However, if Kaladin had limitless Stormlight and Eragon couldn't just blink him out of existence, Kaladin would win due to that o-so special healing factor.

Both of those last votes are actually in Brown, not Red. Do they still count as votes, or are they closer to showing suspicion and it's just a new thing I missed.

Fixed  thanks!

I played a game about rithmatics with Elenion recently in which he was an elim. He advocated a good strategy to keep the chalklings out, but turned out to be an eliminator. My guess is that Randuir figured out some strategy before the game started. It's common enough advice that someone would figure it out eventually, so if he was an eliminator, he'd post it anyways to get some trust.

Come to think of it though, Jon is advocating Randuir's innocence. If Jon is an elim, Randuir probably is too.

A sound strategy is a sound strategy. No matter what you think, nothing Rand has said points to any kind of suspicious behaviour. You're basing things off of previous games... seems to me like you want to lynch someone, Paranoid King

@Mestiv is the best. Simply the best.
