While discussing with Adolin, Jasnah approached the circle, just in time to hear Ialai finish her thoughts. "Ahh Ialai, I see you disapprove of my personal beliefs. Tell me, Ialai, Can you prove to me the existence of any gods? For you see, I believe that which I know, and I know that which I can discover and prove. There are strong arguments in favor of a god, but each of those can be countered easily by an argument disputing it." Turning back to Adolin, Jasnah continued. "Forgive me, young Adolin for my getting distracted. Where were we? Ah yes, Wit does tend to be in just the correct place at the right time. Or wrong place at the wrong time, depending on how you look at it. Now, where did your father get off to this time? We'd best check the cellars. My father is just getting ready to have a meeting with Torol and some of his other advisors, and if I'm not mistaken, your father is supposed to attend." ------- So, I think of all people that should be lynched on to ostracize, the assassin in white is the best bet. Szeth Sapphire. We all know the trouble he caused at this point in the story.

After miraculously finding a way to escape the sea by making the palace out of the beads. Though she did not know how she did it. It was time to join in on the festivities. She felt out of her normal self, and upon entering the grand ballroom, She ran into the King's Wit. "Ahh, Wit, I am pleased to be in your acquaintance today. However, I must apologize that at this moment, I am too wrapped up by my own present concerns to participate in your petty games and mindless banter" She remarked, even before Wit could speak to her.

Jasnah was supposed to be in the main ballroom, discussing with the guests. However, she had other plans that night. Most of those plans had been completed. It was time to head back to the grand ballroom. She began walking through the halls. Having much to consider, she took the long way, and went at a comfortable pace. Jasnah was trying to find out what some people were up to, including many of the strange servants she had seen in the halls this night. Turning a corner, she noticed her shadow change directions. It no longer led away from the lights on the walls and pointed behind her. Now it pointed forward, seemingly ignoring the lamps of stormlight completely. It started taking on an oily appearance. Then it stopped. Something wasn't right here, but she proceeded cautiously regardless. She knew that she would have to face her father and Meridas Amaram again this evening, and that she secretly dreaded, though she wouldn't show that to anyone. It happened again. Her shadow seemed to ignore the light... Suddenly her entire surroundings changed, and she began drowning in a sea of...beads.

Last night, I managed to get a total of two hours sleep, so sorry, but I'll probably not be on much today. I'm happy leaving my vote where it is. Even if it turns out Falcon isn't an elim, he has admitted to being of another faction, or something else that makes him stand out, so a lynch on him will provide more intel than another Refugee mislynch. Of course, if anyone has info suggesting a better lynch target, I'm willing to listen.

I'm happy to throw my vote onto Emerald Falcon, for apparently not knowing our win condition. Suggests he isn't a Refugee. This might change later in the cycle, depends on what else comes to light.

@Fifth Scholar - That is one of the best write-ups I have ever read. It takes a lot to keep my attention with poetry, but you did.

Let the IKYK Games Begin! And may the names be never in your favour You might be right about 'Fleeing'. I guess we'll have to wait and see. I'll admit that what I suggested was all speculation. I actually think the kandra, or kandra-like monster thing is more likely.

Yes, but we're just Refugees, not Fleeing Refugees. We're all fleeing what happened on the station, but shouldn't that just make Hyena an Informant, not a Fleeing Informant. I think the name implies they were on the run from something more than the rest of us.

Could the Fleeing Informant have the account swap roles? Informant implies spy, fleeing implies on the run. If you're on the run, you'll want a disguise, right? Of course, this doesn't explain who or what they are on the run from. Maybe whatever it was that killed the Captain? I know, it's just speculation, but what do you guys think?

Well, I said I'd be back to place a vote, but this thread makes it difficult to choose who. Out of everyone, I'm most suspicious of Indigo Weasel, mostly for the tone of his posts. I'm not really sure what it is about them, there is just something a bit off about them to me.

We should be embracing our new identities, not revealing who we were before. Not knowing is half the fun. I don't blame some of you for wanting to escape though. You can't all be as pretty as I am, with my cute fluffy face Seriously though... No, I'm too tired for serious. I'll be on later with my vote.

This is a sci-fi Scadrial setting... Can we please stop talking about "AI"? I'm assuming, given what NAI means, that AI means alignment indicative, but at the same time, AI as in artificial intelligence, is a big staple of sci fi settings, so for all we know, it could be a role, or item or something. Or, in other words... STOP CONFUSING ME!!! *Goes off to bury my head in the sand*

Thank you, Ivory Dragonfly, for checking in. We are all finally active I think I'll leave off voting for now, and come back to it later.

That was more speculation than assumption. We literally know nothing apart from our own roles, so I'm keeping an open mind.

D1 lynches are always helpful, and always NAI. Unless someone lets something slip, but that usually happens in PMs, so we don't have to worry about it. I think D1 we should vote for our least favourite animal from the list, if we don't get any better ideas. For now though, my vote stays put, since it's a poke vote. I've got plenty of time to change before rollover.

Amber Vulture. Just Ivory Dragonfly left to check in.

But morning coffee might be essential in making sense of all the talking animals.

Ha! Brilliant timing Penguin. Chartreuse Penguin. A full on role swap would be difficult to GM, I think. At least, while the players are also trying to keep secrets from each other. Amber Vulture instead then. For the same reason, minus pronunciation problems.

I think for now, I'm going to place a poke vote on Chartreuse Penguin. Mostly for being a colour I don't recognize and can barely pronounce. Also to try to encourage them to post.

So, if there is an elim faction, and the Kandra is not part of it, then what would the Kandra's victory condition be? Also, couple of 'ifs' here... If there is an elim faction, and if the Kandra is not part of it, and if Indigo Weasel's speculation from earlier is right, about the Kandra killing someone to consume/become them, then that means two kills per night, plus the lynch. Given those numbers, I don't think the villagers will have a kill. As it stands, with only 14 players, this could be over in 4 turns. A village kill could reduce that further, to three rounds.

Oh, right. It's been a few weeks since I read that. I jumped in blind, like the anonymous ostrich I am.

I think I've missed something - where does it hint that we have body swappers, or are able to swap anonymous accounts? @Melon Dingo - How can you read between the lines, and come up with mechanics? The whole point of this anonymous game was that we went in blind, with no knowledge of mechanics, roles, etc. Granted, this does involve figuring them out for ourselves, but I see nothing that suggests body swapping. @Indigo Weasel - It says in the opening post, PMs are not allowed.

Day 12 Zebra didn't vote, so you guys could have ended it right then with Kangaroo's vote, although I guess you guys couldn't have known that he wouldn't arrive at the last second.

If you're a Bondsmith all of the time, we're 100% toast. You being a Worldhopper gives us at least a tiny chance at victory. I did just have a thought: you could have controlled the lynch or at least tied it any day now, with only 1 fewer elim than the village each Day. Why wait until now to press that advantage?

I'd considered the elim!Croc theory yesterday, but with what the elims had access to they could have voted with Croc and Sage and overwhelmed Chamelion and I (Zebra was inactive), so we didn't really lose much in my opinion by lynching Sage. Game state right now: Sage: Elsecaller 1 life remaining Croc: Worldhopper Bondsmith Zebra: villager (vanilla?) Ostrich: villager claimed vanilla Chamelion: villager claimed Elsecaller Let's assume that the elims kill me tonight. They've already tried to lynch me and only failed because of a coinflip, so it makes sense that they'll try to finish the job tonight. If they don't, they'll attack Zebra and go for me N13, and the game doesn't change much. D13: Elims: Sage, Croc Villagers: Zebra, Chamelion If I'm dead by then, my advice now for that time is to take out Croc. There's a chance that they'll have drawn something game-ending, but if you give them an extra day that only raises their chances of getting Bondsmith, Dustbringer, Willshaper, and the like. If you're lucky, you can get Croc on the coinflip and keep the game going. If the game doesn't end right there... N13: Elims: Sage Villagers: Zebra, Chamelion If Sage attacks Chamelion, Chamelion will survive and Sage is toast, so Sage has to attack Zebra. D14: Elims: Sage Villagers: Chamelion (2 lives) Yet another coinflip that we'll have to win. If we lose, Chamelion gets lynched and then killed. If we win, Sage dies. In short: we're bantha fodder and we've been bantha fodder for a while. But this bantha fodder just doesn't want to die.
