    I agree with most of your analysis, except I've had a skybreaker role already, and all the info I got was that the player was a village worldhopper. So I didn't get to know the specific role he had that cycle.

    Did anyone else start playing the music to accompany this in their head?

    Well, first off, let's vote Rhino for obvious reasons. I skimmed D2, and it looks like the only vote on Rhino was by Amber, unless I missed one. My original thought was that that vote could have been a vote to try to bring up a new candidate in Hope's it would take off better than the currsnt lynch candidate, which at the time was Albatross. But seeing as Albatross is the one leading the discussion, it makes it less likely that Amber is Elim, based on the grounds that they were trying to save a teammate with their neck on the chopping block. ------- I'm somewhat uoset that my only active PM contact, gorilla, got killed, especially as I had scanned him N1 and confirmed him as villager. And I hadn't even told anyone else of his alignment scan, because I didnt want this to happen. We also had a fairly good conversation going, so I'm upset that I'll have to try to start all that over again. @Sunburst Toucan, I'll probably take you up on your offer to PM you. Please dont think of yourself as my rebound from Gorilla. You mean more to me than that. Plus you might have some good information that'll help my position in the ghostbloods.

    Yes. Happy new year officially in my time. Were down to just a few timezones left. Basically Pacific, Alaskan, and Hawaiian, and some other islands are left.

    Hi! Here's my analysis post I promised to get to. First of all, I'll be doing what someone else did, and ignoring any posts that come in after I start this post. (probably. Sometimes I can't help myself.) Fifth Scholar's post about the death being edited in to the writeup is the last post as of now. -------------- I'll start with the lynch. While I do understand the last minute switches to Opal to ensure a lynch unaffected by vote manips, It's something I don't like the looks of. The last two to have done so were @Magenta Albatross and @Amber Vulture Magenta makes sense from a survival perspective. However, an arguement I've often heard, but don't necessarily agree with is that sometimes it's better to just be killed, to help the village learn more stuff quicker. Like I said, though I personally don't agree with it, because often games can be much less fun if you are out, and no longer able to play, especially when it's still relatively early in the game. Neutral read. Amber's argument is just for the interest of not wanting to lynch albatross. Their previous vote on Rhino came relatively lat in the cycle too (Not way late, and it could have just been due to IRL reasons, but it's still interesting to note. Could have been a shot to find an alternate lynch candidate to save one of Lion or albatross. Slight elim read. Stronger if Lion or Albatross turns out to be elim. The vote prior to those votes was by @Scarlet Octopus, but that appears to have been about 3 hours before the cycle ended, which is a little early for a last minute type vote swing. I have found Octopus's posts very well thought out, and ring like someone genuinely trying to solve the game. I have generally agreed with most things they've said, but not all. Additionally there have been a few things that confused me like this quote from his last post on D2 I'm not entirely certain if you wanted to say villager in the first location where eliminator is placed, or the second. Speaking of @Saffron Iguana you seem to be the topic of most people's discussion. My personal opinion is that it is more likely you are village, because I wouldn't have voted for an teammate on D1, who would most likely have been lynched, if I were an Elim. It isn't a hard clear, because I've been wrong before, but for now, I'll give you a soft village read. @Emerald Falcon has also contributed a quite a bit. I really enjoy their RP as well as their game feedback. I generally agree with their logic behind their opinion on iguana. I still want to look more into Plum Rhinoceros, as they had votes at one point last cycle, Toucan, as they were a topic of discussion, and Opal Lion as they survived a lynch, without warning the rest of us that was going to happen, which I find suspicious for a villager to do, but I'll do so at a later point, as I'm running out of time at my current location.

    I apologize for my inactivity. I've had an unexpected amount of stuff occurring recently. Nothing bad, just busy. I promise I'll get up some basic analysis by tomorrow so everyone an start to get reads on me and I can get reads on all of you. I also do have one or 2 PMs that I've been slightly more active in, so if you want more of my opinions. You could also try reaching out to me in PM. I hate to leave people on read. That's true for me both IRL and In SE.

    Seeing as how everyone that has died was a worldhopper, and I also was able to successfully scan someone last night, who was also a worldhopper, and I'm also a worldhopper, I'm willing to make an educated guess that most, if not all of us are worldhoppers. Now that would he something to tell the Ghostbloods. Most Urithiruans are actually worldhoppers. That would also help explain why the dustbringer who hit the elim just went for a lucky guess so early. From what I've seen, typically, dustbringer/coinshot type roles are underused near the beginning of the game, because without additional knowledge, its risky to simply attack. But also, I've seen from past experience that typically if someone has a rotating role, like the worldhopper, they're more likely to use their attack. Whoever it was that placed that attack order can probably reveal themselves, as they likely have a new role, so they can be cleared as village, and are most likely no longer a threat to the elims. Unless they are a permanent dustbringer. Maybe a good way to reveal the role would be to a trusted villager in a PM. If you dont currently have one, I do have one that I've been able to scan and learn is a villager. Ultimately, whoever you are, you know the consequences of revealing yourself better than the rest of us, so please consider who you're already in PMs with, and who you trust most, and who you are suspicious of before you just go about revealing. Edit: I'll get around to looking into Ivorys posts later on to see if I can find anything that looks like bussing, pocketing or distancing. Ed2t:corrected spelling of Ivory in edit 1.

    It had been determined that the sympathizer was also a worldhopper. If the public knew, surely so did the ghostbloods. But it gave cadamum a chance to pursue a new lead. Maybe he could determine how many worldhoppers there actually were in Urithiru. Surely that would be enough for the ghostbloods to give him a higher rank above recruit. ----- Sorry I didnt get around to voting. The cycle ends when I'm fast asleep, so I dont have a lot of knowledge about what happened at the end there. also, I'm at a family gathering for most of today, I'll take time to read what's going on, but probably not respond until later or maybe even tomorrow.
  9. Salmon Meerkat
    @Fifth Scholar @Elbereth I was attempting to find out what happens if there is a tied lynch, or if no player has more than one vote, but couldn't find anything. WHat happens with a tied lynch, or a lynch with no player having more than one vote?

    After it was revealed that Naihar had been an Odium Sympathizer, things began to fit into place. As a recruit for the Ghostbloods, it was extremely difficult for someone to provide new valuable information to such a secret organization that had been running for years. But that was the only way to become more than just a simple recruit. The Ghostbloods obviously knew that Naihar was an Odium Sympathizer. All Cadamum had to do was determine why they would have wanted him of all people killed. Naihar did not have any extremely important role. Plus the notes found with his belongings seemed to suggest that there was a much more important person who was also an odium Sympathizer. If the note could be taken at face value, it would be a woman. So the question remains, which high-ranking official who is female is also an odium Sympathizer. Perhaps this is what the Ghostbloods are attempting to determine. Or perhaps they simply wanted to make the Radiants aware of the infiltrators in their ranks. Ghostbloods motives were so difficult to determine. Cadamum had decided if he wanted to get that emerald broam of information that would make it so the Ghostbloods would accept him, it was time to start investigating the high-ranking female officials, as it seemed one of them was an infiltrator. Perhaps that would also help him gain favor in the eyes of Dalinar and the other high-ranking Radiants. Being high in the Radiants would surely be good for his place in the Ghostbloods. ----------- I'll start off stating that I think I disagree with magenta with regards to the presence of a dustbringer. It is certainly possible, however, I would almost expect there to not be any dustbringers, but 2 or 3 worldhoppers, who would then have the option to become a dustbringer. But then again I don't remember the last game where there was a role like the dustbringer. So that means it's been at least a little while. So it could happen. I think there will only be 1 or 2 skybreakers though. There's probably about 2 lightweavers, and also probably 2 willshapers. Right now I don't really have the energy to do any more analysis other than a rudimentary possible role distribution. I'll try to do more later.

    I'm really sorry about this, Mauve Crocodile. I have no idea why people are voting for you, but I have to protect my friends. I hope you'll believe me when I say I would have preferred not having to vote at all.
  12. Salmon Meerkat
    Furthermore, Weasel's been saying a lot of very peculiar things, but in my personal opinion, none of this is criteria for death, IMO. Why can't we just let the guy (OR GIRL! SORRY TO ASSUME!) be weird?
  13. Salmon Meerkat
    If someone from the Utility Company has the ability to contact me, I would be interested in providing some aid going forward.
  14. Salmon Meerkat
    Well now that everyone knows where I am (), would anyone from Scadrial mind telling the thread if Amber being Autonomy was discussed there, after they Worldhopped away? I personally don't think Odium or a faction mate is necessarily on Sel.
  15. Salmon Meerkat
    If I were a GM and this game shared factions with past iterations, I might try to work things based on how those ended or at least establish some kind of narrative that dictated which ones ended up where. Alas, I am not the GM (:P), and thus have no idea, and I don't really think anyone has enough information at this stage to try determining if the shards are aligned in any specific way, let alone issued non-randomly. This is a better subject to bring up a few cycles later, I think. I just want to say I appreciate this effort, Vulture. It's something I'd do if I had more time to spare. 3 Indigo Weasel: Indigo Weasel, Violet Axolotl, Fuchsia Ostrich, 1 Scarlet Octopus: Magenta Albatross, 2 Magenta Albatross: Scarlet Octopus, Onyx Flamingo, 1 Sapphire Elephant: Quartz Zebra, 1 Emerald Falcon: Amber Vulture, Regarding the lynch options, I really liked Indigo's posts on Day 1 (while reading them, I often found myself agreeing or having a similar mindset). It seems I liked them enough that while he's being exceptionally weird this turn, I'm unwilling to vote for him. I am tempted to vote for Dr. Octagonopus since I jokingly did D1 for something that legitimately bothered me, but I'm a little suspicious that Magenta coming into this turn with that vote was because he thought it'd be an easy lynch to rally for (my support + Toucans, I presume he would presume). I may still vote for Scarlet anyway but I want to consider it more. As for Magenta, I think Scarlet's vote is fair at best, silly at worst, but lynching Magenta doesn't have any merit outside of that. On that note, I don't really get Onyx's follow up vote. I think voting for Magenta there is essentially hypocritical. Finally, regarding Sapphire Elephant and Emerald Falcon... I have 0 intention of targeting inactives this game. Not while there are pinch hitters on the sidelines who I'm sure are eager to join us. I also don't feel very inclined to lynch anyone at all since my faction's win condition doesn't require killing anyone.
  16. Salmon Meerkat
    Problem is people can gain the researcher role as well, allowing them to target anyone. No one is really safe given enough time.
  17. Salmon Meerkat
    I don't personally think it benefits everyone. In fact, I would prefer Yolen never get created because it invalidates a rather large part of what makes this game unique.
  18. Salmon Meerkat
    Huh. I didn't expect Shards to organize this fast. Never mind that, I misunderstood how this worked. It looks like a single Shard used their day action to charge Yolen while the rest likely invested in someone. The fact that a Shard made that choice is actually fascinating. Whoever they are, they've clearly got the end game in mind.
  19. Salmon Meerkat
    Oh, well then, in that case Scarlet Octopus. The following text was edited in after its original posting: This vote isn't entirely a joke. On the subject of neutrals, I'm willing to give Toucan the benefit of the doubt, and feel pretty skeeved out by some players reactions, Scarlet being the foremost on my mind. Granted there isn't a ton else to discuss, but neutrals have been the main focus of Scarlet's posts so far and in a heavy lean towards "KILL IT WITH FIRE". I really don't agree with or enjoy that kind of mindset so if I was being forced to kill someone right now, it'd probably be them. Also, there's about 25 minutes left in the turn so get your orders in, people.
  20. Salmon Meerkat
    Hey everyone. I don't know what to say other than it's a travesty I can't upvote anyone's posts. All this RP is practically begging for it! I think I know why these accounts are like that but it's a shame all the same. OH! There is one thing I'd like to request, though. For any role that can create PMs, I hope you consider putting me in some. If I had the ability to I'd be speaking with everyone right now hahahah.
  21. Salmon Meerkat
    *Reads thread* Well, Liss appears to be quite troublesome.

    Everyone who's decided to bandwagon against me: please reconsider. Especially those of you whose reasons are purely because of bandwagon. Now Heron, if I were an Elim, would I really admit that I was making things up just to convince more people? @Chartreuse Penguin, you had no other motive than the bandwagon. Please actually put some thought into your decision. @Plum Rhinoceros, you mentioned you might reconsider later. Is now such a time? To everyone else who based their evidence on my past voting patterns and evidence: I see clearly the fault of my actions, and why you have gotten so worked up over them. I'll allow the next hour until rollover for everyone to make their decisions, then I will see what needs to be done. The choice is yours.
  25. Salmon Meerkat
    @Onyx Flamingo Regarding the lynches I did not vote: unfortunately, any action I could have taken would have been futile. I would not have been able to convince five or so different people to change their minds, especially with only a few hours left in the cycle (since most bandwagons this game have developed to full power towards the end of the cycle). Having no useful option, I simply did not vote. One exception: I crashed after church on Sunday (D3) and slept through rollover, and by then it was too late to do anything. As for Swan, I was very specific in my explanation D1 that I had nothing specifically against Swan, and afterwards I began to lean more village with Swan, having seen more posts. As for everything else you said, I can see no fault, other than you misinterpreted my actions as suspicious. @Mauve Crocodile, is that your entire defense?
