Anniversary Game 7/Anonymous Game 9: From Embers, A Flame
Violet Axolotl replied to Elbereth's topic in Sanderson Elimination
Huh, didn't think about that. It's Rhino, then. (or scorpion?) IMO you know too much to be evil. What I mean by that is you've collected enough information that if you're evil the CoA are essentially doomed anyway, but I don't think that's true because of your posts and, y'know, how people are still alive. (That was sort of incoherent, sorry) And I know I'm good, so Rhino. I've had a gut evil on them for some time anyway. But still exeing Gecko. That needs to be done, you agree iirc.- 1222 replies

Violet Axolotl replied to Elbereth's topic in Sanderson Elimination
I mean, yeah. If Preservation dies I'd inherit that Shard, but I don't find that likely; I think they'll invest in someone else before that. I guess it could keep the OCs on their toes, but for the time being I'm vulnerable.- 1222 replies

Anniversary Game 7/Anonymous Game 9: From Embers, A Flame
Violet Axolotl replied to Elbereth's topic in Sanderson Elimination
...I'm just wondering. The only person who could possibly know that I'm their Investee is Preservation, so you're obviously in contact with them, or something else is going on, in which case I'm curious. I don't expect you to out Preservation in-thread; I'd be even more annoyed if you did. As for the roleblocking, I was wondering who was roleblocked because as of then it was basically the only option that had been discussed of what had happened. I'm not overly familiar with the rules and the fact that people who are on destroyed planets are roleblocked slipped my mind. Trying to solve the game seems like a poor grounds for suspicion if you ask me, and that seems like what you're saying. I'm confused as to why you're so confident I'm of Odium when there are eight other people that are as statistically just as likely as I am to be. As Scorpion said, you outed me as Preservation's Investee. Thus, I'm not a Shard, and Odium cannot kill me. If he were to target me, nothing would happen, but you've spared the OCs from wasting their time and they can go straight to killing me with Odium's Investee. So thanks.

Alright, This is true. It stopped my worldhopping, but not any action. How did you come across this information, Flamingo? I don't appreciate you outing how I can be killed by the OCs. As Gorilla said I'm no more suspect than any of the other eight people on Shadesmar.- 1222 replies

Ooh yeah, good catch Hyena. Shadesmar people (from last cycle): Who was on Shadesmar? Roleblock people: Did you roleblock anyone? Contact trusted PM people, probably, though if you blocked someone successfully that's something that would be useful to know.- 1222 replies

Yes, they do. N1 had someone attacked and survived. I can see no reason Odium would not use their kill, unless they somehow received a minor role that was better? But that doesn't make sense either.- 1222 replies

Anniversary Game 7/Anonymous Game 9: From Embers, A Flame
Violet Axolotl replied to Elbereth's topic in Sanderson Elimination
Oh dear. Perhaps that was what I detected as odd... I find the possibility of OC!Mercy... honestly a bit overpowered. But maybe, with the risk it holds, we should try to not as blatantly discuss suspicions in the Night? That sound good? If Mercy is evil, they targeted OC!Gecko as well. Or maybe CoA!Gecko as a frame but we won't get into that. If Mercy is CoA they targeted Gecko because they didn't think they were evil, which in my opinion would have been a bad move :P. Not just because I read them as OC, but because of the confusion it would cause. I plan on voting Gecko next cycle, though. I don't like how it apparently 'never occurred to them to mention it' and the like. Of the Oxblood voters besides Gecko, I find Rhinoceros the most suspicious. I've had a mild evil read on them for two turns or so. @Opal Lion, I'd like a PM with Gorilla, as they asked for one earlier.- 1222 replies

I agree, and I can't pinpoint exactly what. But at this point my vote is staying because I don't like exeing Beagle immediately, and Gecko does have reasons to be the one to go.- 1222 replies

Violet Axolotl replied to Elbereth's topic in Sanderson Elimination
I- I dislike that. ALL of that. Not entirely sure why. I'm getting there. Edit: Upon reread not it all. Still trying to digest coming back to 14 posts :P. Pointing out that Gecko has a vote removed from them because of their planet they are residing on. For all purposes, currently Beagle is up for exe. While I think their motives were strange, I don't think we should exe them over that when they haven't had any chance to defend themselves. Honestly I 100% believe Lion (wait... that's not the problem here :P) and someone cleared them for some reason or another and I agreed. I dislike Dingo's leap, and mildly have a negative gut read on Rhino, though them asking for Valor to protect Lion helps with that.- 1222 replies

Violet Axolotl replied to Elbereth's topic in Sanderson Elimination
I suppose it can, though Elephant's vote was very early on and their retraction was the latest post so there was a lot of time to change their mind. The contribution point is solid, though if that's any form of basis for an exe I'd rather wait until later cycles to kill the actives. I agree with your general argument, though. I'd just rather wait a bit longer.- 1222 replies

I think Elephant has contributed enough otherwise. Their original Croc vote was one of the most reasoned-out. Still waiting for @Oxblood Beagle's explanation.- 1222 replies

Violet Axolotl replied to Elbereth's topic in Sanderson Elimination
Mouse is not going hard after me. They're paranoid, and I understand that. Flamingo, most of those suspicions seem to be piggybacking off of others and I don't like that too much. I don't think that Gecko putting Chameleon in their CoA reads is especially incriminating, though if they flip OC I might want to look into it later. Chameleon theoretically should be getting replaced soon as well. I like my vote where it is, though I must admit I'm having doubts with the traction it's gained. @Oxblood Beagle, kindly explain to me why I shouldn't move my vote over to your hide by informing the general populous why you want Autonomy's identity so badly?- 1222 replies

Anniversary Game 7/Anonymous Game 9: From Embers, A Flame
Violet Axolotl replied to Elbereth's topic in Sanderson Elimination
Mostly an annoyed shock of realizing they're just copying everything, and guessing they'd do that the whole game, where as I knew I'd contribute later. @Indigo Weasel can verify my paranoia and things I mentioned earlier this cycle, though admittedly all that happened after I asked for protection the first time. I can't remember exactly why I asked there, but honestly it was likely my thought process of 'I'm CoA' -> 'I'm active' -> 'I'm on Roshar' -> 'Odium wants to kill on Roshar' Now, I'm not a Shard, though of course I'd say that no matter what OC's, you're welcome for the IKYK. The memory bit is referring to my aging mind and the trope of forgetful elders, but in essence I was saying how I remembered Kangaroo asking the neutral Shards to claim, and remembered thinking that was a bit strange. That is, until I started thinking about it more. Er, they died and flipped CoA Prudence :P. I don't see what there is to explain. If I were Odium, and saw claimed Autonomy, I would kill them. Because they have a roleblock, and while they have 'almost no incentive' to use it in my experience neutral roles tend to side with the village. I'd want that role out of the way. It doesn't matter how likely they may be to use it, I wouldn't know their playstyle or motives. I believe that. You're much less of an elim read for me than Gecko is.- 1222 replies

Violet Axolotl replied to Elbereth's topic in Sanderson Elimination
This is a bad idea, even if others go to Shadesmar as well. All the OC would have to do is send one person over there and they instantly have a pool where they know there are two Shards, one of which can undo Odium's splintering. I strongly am against this. Sooner restored PMs aren't worth losing Cultivation.- 1222 replies

Anniversary Game 7/Anonymous Game 9: From Embers, A Flame
Violet Axolotl replied to Elbereth's topic in Sanderson Elimination
Thanks for saying things. Okie, multiquote coming up. I'm replying to everything individually so I can almost guarantee I'll repeat myself. I didn't think my protection request came out of nowhere, but I also was on the Roshar doc. I was a player in the Croc exe and was paranoid. I'm always paranoid of being attacked, and I thought I was well enough trusted that I could reasonably ask. Note: If you protected me, uh, sorry. More on that later (You as in a general 'you', not a Mouse 'you') I didn't necessarily fear both- I feared only one, of course- but of course I expected both an Odium attack and an Investee attack. And we got both, one simply survived. I would ask for protection regardless of Shard/NotShard!Me. As you said, I'd survive either way, and I'd like to do that. My asking for protection shouldn't be read as a claim because it's not. That is... technically true, though it makes me a bit annoyed at Heron. They said they were paranoid about my paranoia, but I didn't think it went that far. I didn't directly claim Shard or Not Shard in the Roshar doc. I heavily suggested I was one of the two, but I technically didn't outright claim. This in turn made me paranoid that Heron or Weasel were OC, and I had just told them how they could kill me, so I backpedaled. I assume this is the chaotic bait play Heron is referencing, as it did kind of look like that. And to be honest, I would have loved to have been attacked by either the Investee or Odium himself- not saying which one, of course- and that's for a reason I can say next turn. If you really care that much you could probably figure it out. I'd like to know how you came up with a village read on someone I don't recall ever to have spoken in the thread :P. Perhaps I'm missing something, in which case enlighten me. I don't know if you would call what I did 'too helpful'. I was essentially exactly the same as the other voters on Croc, and I was planning on unvoting them. I doubt Odium meant to hit Prudence. Heron gave no indication they were Prudence in the doc, or even if they were a Shard at all. I kind of think my fault in thinking the Night lasted half as long as it did might be why Heron was attacked; Odium would have seen that post, known Heron was already on Roshar, and wanted to cause some sort of confusion while also taking a shot at Honor. I don't think anything other than what I said halfway through the Night was leaked. In the case that Weasel is evil, I could see Odium not wanting to try messing with me xD But also think Weasel is more likely good because I still think I would have been attacked if either Heron or Weasel were bad. Of course, Odium didn't know they had a 1/6 chance of hitting Pru, though, just that they had 6 options. I know Kangaroo was in the Rosharan system. They claimed Ashyn :P. I assume as form of Contribution Crusade. Which I'm not entirely opposed to, but I'd rather vote on someone with content :P. Thus, Gecko. The above points I highlighted in this post are kind of weird, but mostly it's the things I talked about during the Night.- 1222 replies

Ah, right, the blasted memory strikes again. That’s unfortunate. Cultivation? Right now I’m split between Gorilla and Gecko. I’ll see how things progress later, but likely my vote will end up in one of those two. I’m almost home where I can transfer to a computer to type an eloquent response to all that^ Edit: Someone say something, please. I don’t want to go two in a row.- 1222 replies

Ok I see your points... @NewPrudence, kindly set me up with Mouse in a shiny PM. Or, if they haven’t used their Silverlight one that’s more reliable. In about an hour I can reply to the less sensitive points but I still am largely unavailable.- 1222 replies

Violet Axolotl replied to Elbereth's topic in Sanderson Elimination
@Azure Mouse, I am on mobile and cannot respond fully. I’ll be unavailable for some time. The easy explanation is that I said things on Roshar that would reflect how to kill me, and thus if I died one of the people on the planet with me likely passed on the information I foolishly blabbed. That didn’t happen- I was not the one attacked- but we can assume that whoever it was is a Shard. I don’t understand your vote on me at all. Was it incentive for me to explain? It was never not in the plan to. I thought Heron’s alignment might reflect opposite of Gecko’s only because of my paranoia, and how Heron expressed suspicion of Gecko. Now that Heron flipped CoA that’s largely useless as it was only my paranoia of OC!Heron. I do still find Gecko slightly sus though. That ended up being the full explanation, by the way.- 1222 replies

This is a very good point, fellow. An oversight I took. I noticed your vote, by the way. But since it wasn't on Kangaroo or Crocodile, it wasn't as relevant. As a refresher (oops) My death means Heron and/or Weasel is likely no good, and if I'm attacked but survive they're both likely good. Farewell if this is the end of me, I've enjoyed my time with you younger folk.- 1222 replies
