  1. @randuir no problem! Thanks for answering my questions I have to sleep for now, but I will be back tomorrow. We do need other's to start voting. This has been an interesting cycle with only one vote so far, and it doesn't even count. I want to wait until I can think through the game so far a little bit more. I will have to do that tomorrow. I don't want to have black circles under my eyes tomorrow.
  2. Maybe if we find a confirmed good unicorn through the generosity passing plan then they can start adding the cleared ponies(the ones who passed the element of generosity) into a pm each cycle so that the village could have a trusted pm group just like the elims do? It would be nice if the element of honesty pony was a unicorn lol. Does this sound like a good plan or does it have problems? Please feel free to speak your mind. (even if this plan is stupid and you think so lolol ) I'm just trying to think through all the possibilities that could give us an advantage. @The Flash personally I'd rather try to get a more informed lynch target than just choosing someone out of the blue. (I know your vote isn't completely out of the blue I just needed some color word for my cr lolz lynching inactives does help sometimes) I will have to keep thinking and analyze the thread some more.
  3. Oh that's right! Way to use the old grey matter! (I'm ashamed...I already used that color this cycle lolol)
  4. What if an elim pony gets it and then tells his friends that he had it and one of them receives it by chance...just a thought. The odds are low but at that point they could accurately tell who has it and they would be "confirmed" good. Also if we are passing it then should we try to pass it among the more active players first? In case an inactive player gets it and doesn't pass it on? Or gets lynched while holding it? What if an elim gets it and then doesn't pass it on, and then claims to have passed it but then the other person says they didn't get it? How would we know which one was telling the truth? Should we have the honesty pony scan the one who says they passed it? But then if they announced who was lying then the honesty element pony would be revealed. Hmm. What if an elim is still holding the element and we lynch them...then we give them an element right? What if an elim gets the element and then his friends do a sacrifice kill on him to get that element? (Pretty unlikely) What if a village pony passes the element to the pony with kindness and they get lynched? Will the element of generosity be there still? What if we are getting close to the end of everypony having held it already...wouldn't that narrow it down for the elims as to who will have the element next? Would that put them in danger? I'm trying to make sure there aren't any loopholes lol. That's all I can think of rn. All in all I think it's the best way to go. It seems like the most productive use of the element. Maybe once we start narrowing it down than the honesty pony can also start to narrow down who they should scan? That might speed up the process of finding the elims? I think the fuchsia looks bright with this plan! (I've used most of the basic colors so be prepared for some outrageous puns and play on words from now on to complete my CR lolol)
  5. @The Flash aww thanks flash! I'm trying...of course @randuir is right. I would try even if I was an elim lololol I personally trusted @Frozen Mint TOO much in my first game! lol ...She had become part of a trust triangle for the village and she was EVIL haha (I will never forget lol) I'm not saying you should never trust me...I'm just saying you should always be wary of everyone unless they are absolutely proven golden! I wish straw had been able to defend himself. We didn't have much to go on, and his vote on me was kinda random. (Although when I thought back through what he said later, I realized that he said I was the most likely person to kill him and I actually have voted for him on the first cycle of 3 out of 4 of the only games I've played ha! I didn't even realize! Sorry straw! Stop seeming evil lol) I might be really busy today because of memorial day and family coming over. I will still try to check in and i might be on more tonight!
  6. Ha! I was right it was you...of course I mentioned two others as well lol _________________________________________________ A grey cloud hung over ponyville. Literally. Prism was upset, and she sat on a cloud above ponyville thinking about the previous night. Their meeting had been going so well until everypony started yelling and accusing one another of being a changling. How had it turned sour so quickly? Straw had been loudly spreading his paranoia that everypony was out to get him, and somehow that ended up being the case. Well, if it wasn't so sad it would be kind of funny in an ironic sort of way. The pony with the element of loyalty at that. Loyalty? That was also ironic. Looks like they were turning on their friends pretty quickly. Prism sighed. Somepony yelped, and she realized that she had just made her cloud pour rain on some unsuspecting pony down below. "Sorry!", she yelled down. The pony simply huffed, and stalked off soaking wet.
  7. Well excuse me for being so well protected lol...also hey! how many times are people gonna try to kill me lol...I promise I'm trying to help! Did the namer attack me or was it saboteurs!? I totally forgot the cycle ended tonight and I was really busy...sooo I forgot to put in actions oops. I will laugh if I survive this game after all of the kill attempts I don't know what to do anymore...except maybe kill steph or straw after I did all that analysis per orlok's request they were my biggest suspicions.
  8. Oops. Umm...sorry straw Hey somepony actually used a pegasus vote! I was wondering if they would. So alvron, conatus, or jedal must have been the one. Since ecth and I both voted in thread and Ornstein wasn't even on was he? Why did they vote in secret? Hmmmm? Cuz it's fun or cuz they knew straw was a villager and they didn't want to explain their vote? I'm sorry that we lost our loyalty pony. We could've used his protection ability. Edit: also RIP @A Joe in the Bush...we will find you! (You really shouldn't stay out alone at night when there are changlings running about )
  9. Hey I'm actually home a little earlier than I thought! Yay! @Ecthelion III @The Flash @Conatus @Hemalurgic_Headshot "Oh, didn't you know? I am Prism. I'm terribly sorry if I didn't make that clear when you first came in! And yes, your poem is truly a work of art! I could feel the emotion in the words. It was very moving." Prism smiled as he took the paper back, tucking it behind his wing. Hmm it's probably going to fall again. "Are you enjoying the party?" She saw Silver Wolf in the corner smiling at their awkward conversation. There was a tapping at the front door. "Oh my, could you excuse me?" She nodded to the pegasus, and went to open the door. There stood a unicorn with a questioning look on his face. Wasn't his name Bracken? "Hello, and welcome! Are you here for the party? I thought you sent a note that said you weren't coming? I'm so glad you changed your mind!" Prism opened wide the door to give him the green light to come in. "Please help yourself to the refreshments in the parlor." She lowered her voice, "Just be careful about the cookies Ironpies brought with him. They seem a little...spiky?" _______________________________________________________ @Herowannabe I'm loving that everyone is adding so much to the RP too! And thanks to everyone for accepting my invites! We should probably actually gather and have a meeting at our "planning" party. There are still a lot of ponies out there who haven't voted yet....any opinions, or thoughts? I know the first cycle doesn't have much to offer in the way of an informative lynch, but it's helpful to at least figure out everypony's point of views on the vote. So we can look back on this cycle once we catch an elim. The cycle is almost over.
  10. @Ecthelion III @Conatus @Crimsn-Wolf welcome to the party! please feel free to mingle with anypony who arrives..i wont be on much for the rest of this cycle. _______________________________ Prism was happy that other ponies had begun to arrive! She greeted each one as they entered. She asked them for their opinion on the painting, and then told them there was refreshments in the parlor. Her friend, Dusted Rose had been kind enough to bring a ton of lovely flowers to cheer everyone up. Prism hoped it would help. Silver Wolf was kind enough to stand guard for her party. She wanted to make sure they wer safe from changlings during the meeting. She tried offering him some punch, but apparently he had brought his own drinks. She told him to help himself to the pies and pudding. After a while of greeting guests, she noticed a piece of paper on the floor. Someone must have dropped it on their way in? She picked it up to see if she could find out who it belonged to. She gasped! What beautiful prose! She heard hoof steps and looked up to see a white pegasus looking anxiously at the paper she was holding. She blushed bright red. He must have been the one who dropped this poem. "I'm terribly sorry. Did you drop this on your way in?" She held it out to him. "I hope you won't mind if i say that it's quite beautiful." After some consideration I've decided to change my vote to Straw so we won't have a tie. I gotta go now! See y'all next cycle! pk
  11. Okay @OrlokTsubodai here ya go! I think most of the drama lately started in term 6 month 1 so I will start there. 1. I was sabotaged and stick was attacked but survived and she was expelled. 2. Steph says she used fae lore on burnt and it didn't fail. 3. Burnt said she sent a courier to steph and steph says she got it so that would prove burnt's innocence. 4. Cluny stole 4 talents from steph lol. 5. I targeted HH with fae lore and it failed because he was at the university. 6. Steph voted to expel HH, but then later says she was confused about who was becoming a master next and then votes Cluny instead. 7. Steph said she thought you might be a skindancer cuz we didn't know if you were sabotaged or went insane naturally. 8. Cluny said he thought you were village, but then he said Steph's reasoning made sense. 9. I reminded everyone that steph was almost a master too, and she told me shhhhh lol. Okay term 6 month 2 now. 1. Burnt was attacked but protected. 2. HH was killed. (Stick and arinian claimed to have sent the assassins on him) 3. Burnt says HH was probably the one who detained her and arinian last month because he was a master physicker. 4. Aman says that Cluny is probably evil based on his interactions with HH in the past. 5. Arinian says he used nahlrout to block me and it cancelled my fae lore on stick. I also used omen recognition that past turn to see if the attack on me was a sabotage but then elbereth clarified in the writeup of this month that it was a sabotage so I didn't need to say anything. 6. Arinian saw straw lurking the thread lol. 7. Steph says she finished scanning everyone with school records now. 8. Burnt says someone bought a gram and said it was me. Cuz I did lol. 9. I said if Cluny is evil than steph probably is cuz he had defended her earlier in the game and it seemed a little odd. 10. Straw posts to say he is on the streets when aman had said if he wasn't on the streets he might look suspicious. 11. Cluny had asked why it mattered if straw was reading the thread and not posting and then lateral he says he's not defending straw but that he has the page open in the background of his computer whenever he's on. 12. Stick says we should send an assassin on cluny if we are all voting on him anyways. 13. Stick asks if the writeup will mention if someone is hit more than once on a single turn. 14. Cluny asks if an assassin can be held multiple turns. (I told him they could..if they miss their targets than you can continue to send them out on people until they hit someone. But you have to send them out as soon as you pay for one.) 15. I did analysis post on Cluny and said that I thought he was suspicous. (He has mathematician abilities and he has half tuition from being a master and he keeps saying he's broke.) Term 7 Month 1 now: 1. Eohl and Silverdale died by mercenaries on the streets. 2. Burnt says she sent an assassin on me because steph asked her too. But as I said before I had a gram. 3. Cluny was elevated to master but I don't know in what field. 4. I used fae lore on Cluny and straw and their was no sabotage apparently. 5. Steph says she asked burnt to attack me because she had used fae lore on stick's attack when I sent an assassin on her and she said it showed up as skindancer activity. (Know that I now stick was innocent either steph is lying or someone else attacked stick on the same turn that I did.) She says that Cluny and I are possibly working together. 6. Aman says that either steph or me are probably evil. Wants us to sacrifice ourselves for information's sake. I said I would let them kill me but that I would rather not die if they found someone more suspicious. 7. I asked steph why I would openly admit to attacking stick if I was a skindancer. 8. Burnt says that if she were evil than it would be unlikely that steph was too cuz they are both vintish nobles. (I think steph is now and not burnt) but also the elims were chosen randomly. 9. Aman's votes on Cluny were cancelled because he was elevated to master before the votes could take effect last turn. 10. Stick wanted us to kill steph. 11. Stick says she doesn't think that steph and I are of the same alignment. 12. Cluny says he thinks burnt is the namer. He also said someone robbed him of seven ounces of nahlrout. ( I'm lookin at you arinian lol) 13. Stick says that the remaining players at the university might try to get rid of the students from there so they can destroy all of the fields freely which is an alternate win condition for the elims. 14. Cluny says that would take forever so they probably aren't trying that. 15. Aman says we should focus on killing the sane people because killing the students in the crockery would be a waste and probably cost us the game. 16. Cluny says to near trust burnt cuz if she's an elim namer than she's invincible. (I still don't know why he said that lol) This is all I have time for sorry! I hope it helps!
  12. @A Joe in the Bush bridge boy said he probably wasn't gonna be on today. care to come to Prism's planning party? Everypony on here is invited! It isn't black-tie or anything. Just come as you are lol I might not be on after an hour or so because I have church, and we are visiting with my cousins and aunt later too so it might be late before I can get back. I will try to get on before the end of cycle if it's possible!
  13. I'm sorry @randuir I just had to point out that my P's seem to have played a part in your post lolol I actually thought PK would have two votes if I voted on him. Oops. I thought that you had put a line through Jedal's name because PK was an earth pony so that first vote wouldn't count. I might remove my vote from PK if I find someone more suspicious, but I didn't vote on him completely for preservation purposes. (Apparently I can't stop lol) I'm not sure if an elim would actually be that vocal about something in the first cycle because if he got me lynched and I'm village than he would probably get lynched next cycle. But I didn't really understand his votes so far and I know I'm not evil so I didn't want to die if he was an elim trying to get rid of me. I will step back and consider some more before the cycle is over though. (tbh I didn't explain my vote in my last post cuz it would have ruined the piece lol...I figured someone would post soon after me, and then i could explain my vote in a new post haha) @Straw only if you're evil then yes. Yes, I will kill you haha.
  14. Prism paced her patio. Her pony friends should be punctual. She was plum worn out from all of her preparations. She hoped that her party invites hadn't been postponed in the post because of the perilous pandemonium that had previously passed. She had already put out some pudding, pies, and punch in the parlor. She even had some peaceful music playing. The ponies needed a perfect environment to postulate a plan. They had to protect themselves from the putrid phony ponies plotting against them and posing as their pals. She placed her painting on a pedestal for the other ponies to provide their input. She pondered whether the pony she had parted with earlier would possibly accept her proposal to join their planning party. Perhaps the ponies with the powerful elements could be persuaded to preside over this meeting. Potentially, they could prevail over these problems. She paused as, she was pleased to see, a few of the ponies were plodding up her pathway. Pretty soon everypony would be present and they could proceed to make the princess proud. __________________________________________ I noticed that I was putting plenty of p's in my previous posts, and it pleased me to see how many I could push into this particular piece. Pairing "P" words together is just peachy! After all, Prism is a pegasus pony with a passion for painting. I'm also placing a vote on paranoid king for the purpose of my own protection, and he's possibly a perpetrator who should be put in prison. Please help me. I think I have a problem.
  15. Okay @queensteph are you just trying to make it look like my actions failed because you used fae lore on me? I feel like your plotting against me I'm suspicious of you again ugh..my action failed to pass aman protection because he was killed and my fae lore action failed on Cluny because he's probably at the university. I clearly posted that in the thread already, and I feel like you're just using that to frame me. Also convenient for steph if aman was attacked because we can't affect her with our abilities if we aren't at the uni. At this point I'm really beginning to feel like steph is actually evil. @OrlokTsubodai I'll try to summarize the game if I get some free time tomorrow. @Cluny the Scourge @Paranoid King I was just sabotaged not that long ago and no one else has gone insane since then so I doubt they are all in the crockery.
  16. "Ummmm." Something he could do? Prism was puzzled. Had he already asked her that before. It sounded familiar. Oops. She hadn't really been listening earlier had she. She tapped her hoof in thought. He seemed genuinely embarrassed by what had happened, and she wasn't sure how to answer his question. "I know!" She smiled. "You can join me and my friends as we try and search for the changlings!...that is...if you would like to?" She realized he COULD be a changling, but would a changling really offer her art tips? She paused, waiting for his response. She hoped her offer was the right thing to do. Finding those yellow-bellied kidnappers was what she wanted most, after all.
  17. Prism was dumbfounded. Had somepony just tackled her! She was about to yell out because she thought it was a changling, but when she opened her eyes it was just the pony she had been following. She stared at him with a puzzled expression as he started rambling off apologies. It would seem she had startled him just as much as he had startled her. He helped her up while still trailing apologies. "Oh dear! Oh my! I'm alright! It's my painting I'm worried about!" She leaned it against a tree and began to examine it for tears or any other damage. She sighed in relief as she found no damage to her newest piece of artwork. She glanced over, and saw the other pony looking quite forlorn. She hadn't meant to brush off his apologies like that. She had just been so worried about...well enough of that. She needed to make amends, and ask him about the painting like she had come to do. "I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to be rude. I was merely afraid for my piece." She angled it towards him so he could see it again. "I was following you because I saw you looking at it, and I was wondering if you had noticed anything odd about anypony's behavior. I tried to recreate the scene as accurately as possible. Do you happen to have any thoughts?" She smiled, hoping to reassure him that she was fine. Although she might be a little black and blue later on.
  18. @DroughtBringer hey stop ganging up on me lol I didn't have much to say but I was just trying to give my thoughts on what rand had said and I did overlap some of what he said but that's cuz I agreed with him. I did repeat what he said about the loyalty element but I added to it by saying that they should be especially careful about protecting the magic pony cuz rand hadn't mentioned that. I can't tell you not to vote on me be because it's part of the game...I'm just trying to provide answers as best I can when people do vote for me. I'm just trying to be honest and not even tell any white lies. (Had to add that last sentence for my CR lol)
  19. @Paranoid King excuse you.. I said you might be right haha 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. ___________________________________________________ If I was going to show my friends the painting, I probably should have brought the painting. Prism shook her head at her own forgetfulness. She had been so worried about her friends that she really had flown off without thinking. She turned around and flew back. She was getting close, when she noticed a pony studying her painting. He left before she could ask him his thoughts on it. Maybe she should follow him, and find out if he noticed anything unusual by looking at it? Would that be weird? She shrugged. Worth a shot, I guess. She would try to catch up with him, and then she could go find her friends. She stuck the painting in her bag this time, and flew off in the direction she had seen him last. He moved pretty fast for an earth pony.
  20. I forgot to say it earlier but welcome @Conatus @Crimsn-Wolfand @The Flash !! It's nice to have more new players! This is only my fourth game! @Paranoid King I can kinda see where your coming from with voting on Jondesu, but tbh if you looked at it based on who agreed with Randuir's post wouldn't there be like four of us who already did that? I'm not against voting for anypony since we don't really know anything yet but I'm just saying the way you chose to vote seemed a little unusual. But hey, who knows...you could be right _____________________________________________________ Prism stepped back from her canvas and studied her finished masterpiece. hmmm it's definitely as chaotic as the event itself. Nothing really jumped out at her as looking suspicious. Everypony looked shocked in their own way. Maybe she should invite a few friends over to hear their thoughts on the matter. After all friendship is the key to solving any mystery! Hopefully her friends were still her friends though. Anypony could be a changling after all. "Oh dear! If they are kidnapped I have to rescue them! A real friend is true blue even in a crisis!" She fluttered her wings nervously, and set out to find her friends.
  21. Prism was shocked by princess Luna's announcement! How could this be happening? It was horrific to be sure! The image of everypony scattering this way and that in fear had solidly been planted in her mind. As horrible as the situation was she couldn't help feeling like this scene would make a terribly interesting painting. She decided to go paint it while it was still vivid in her memory. Perhaps she could find a clue as to who the infiltrators were by permanently capturing the scene on a canvas. Plus, painting always helped her to relax. With the promise that some ponies were being given the elements of harmony to protect them, she figured there was still a silver lining in this situation. _______________________________________________________ Okay so it looks like everypony is trying very hard to place blame quickly. I don't actually see anything wrong with Randuir's post to make me think that he's an elim. He may be one, but I wouldn't think that from his first post since it was Actually helpful advice. And some of it I don't think he would have shared with us if he was an elim. Like the part about the loyalty pony being careful when they protect people, and the magic pony not revealing their identity. Just saying, those seem like things a changling wouldn't want you to think about. I don't want to vote until I have more to go on so I'll hold off on passing judgement on anypony just yet.
  22. Mila grumbled to herself, as she helped to gather dinner for the guards. More guards meant more work for her. She didn't think it was fair that she had to keep up the pretense of being a maid. She was just as skilled, if not more so, than a lot of these men. At least she was on the guard payroll. Not that anyone but Lord Conrad was aware of that. Her skills made her quite valuable, and Conrad wanted them kept secret. A woman guard would stand out. She understood. She just didn't like having to put up with maid duties. She got along well enough with all of the guards she knew, but there were so many new recruits she would have to be more careful from now on. Men were not to be trusted easily. She wasn't afraid of them. She could take them down easily enough if she had too, but the whole point of her being a maid was to keep that a secret. All the same, she'd rather avoid any situations that would get her fired. Beating or killing a guard just because he got a little fresh would definitely get her in trouble. Even if it would send a good message to the others. She smiled at that last thought, and reminded herself that she could always feel better by spitting in the food of the guards she disliked. Besides, being a maid did come with the perks of hearing all of the house gossip. Maids had a knack for that. You'd think they were all burning tin the way they learned information. She chuckled to herself. Maybe they were? After all, she was a secret guard posing as a maid. Perhaps she should be more careful around the other maids as well. _____________________________________________________ I thought I'd get some RP in before the game started to establish how a girl could be a guard lol
