Ok, we have about 7 hours left until this day is over and we don't have a solid lynch. I don't love it, but Onyx Flamingo . Losing a lynch is not an acceptable option. @Plum Rhinoceros the reason we need to lynch people is because that is our main way to kill eliminators and amass information. It's not perfect, and we do have roles, but roles are NOT perfect. Lynches also provide information in who wants to kill who, which can be analyzed to figure out which people are voting suspiciously. The elims have the night kill, we have the lynch. That's how the game works.

I had more stuff to say, but I'm tired, so for now I'll say this-my reason for voting on Chameleon was wrong, i misremembered how that played out, so I'm retracting my suspicions. Less actives, please contribute anything you can. I feel like that's been what I've repeated many times, but seriously, the more villagers we have active, the better. But if you're an elim, feel free to drift into inactivity.

Jai gave a weird look at all the people who were looking at him. They expected him to give them something useful? He had just taken one persons sandwich, and they hadn't even noticed, so focused they were on determining who to kill. Several people looked shifty, but honestly Jai was really just trying to shove other people to do the work. As long as he didn't die, did he really care? Something twisted in his gut, and he knew he was lying to himself. He did care, just a little. But not enough to not swipe that bowl of soup that had been abandoned.

Ok, Rhino

I thought I made my reasoning pretty clear, i thought it was more likely that Swan was village than Dingo. I mean, i might be wrong. I might be wrong about Chameleon as well. But for the moment, i need to go plum Rhino . You answered my PM, but have not posted in thread. I do not want to lynch you, but could @Plum Rhinoceros please participate? again, this is merely merely a poke vote while I try to find an actual lynch candidate. Also, i want to address a common issue less actives have been expressing: names and number of people. A spread sheet is great, but not everyone has time to write in detail. So, i stress the idea of writing brief notes. It's ok to rely on more active villagers for deeper analysis. But your notes can provide new perspectives for us to better find eliminators, so we can be the first AG village to win, ever.

the thing that threw me off was not a vote count, but how people were like "Where is chameleon" and suddenly a vote count! It felt like an "Oh shoot well I better do something". However, I am considering other candidates. We won't really know whether the dustbringer is village or not until they die or if they kill an eliminator.

Beagles are generally fluffy, so yeah. I don't think I've been as precise in this game, mainly because I've been spending a lot more time trying to get people active. As for Chameleon, I'm going to keep my vote on them for the moment, while I go back again and take another look. I don't really like the lynch candidates right now, so I'll take a look for myself and try again. Ok, as for the day one lynch, how was i supposed to know Dingo was villager? He was hardly contributing, i reasoned it made sense that elims might hide there. I also decided I thought Swan was a villager. So that's why I voted on dingo. And as for "I hope everything goes well," thats me hoping I don't get stabbed by the elims night one, which has happened before, to my great annoyance.

I think fire will probably mean dustbringers in general.

I'll start off the day's voting with Pearl Chameleon. I am suspicious of them due to how they reacted to several accusations during day one, especially one regarding how they were lurking and within a few minute- poof, vote count. And then the thing that really set my bells off was when they said that they were happy with the amount of discussion in day 1. That just feels... off to me, especially given that chameleon hardly contributed anything to the discussion.

Probably lightweaver, making herself look like lots of different types of radiants.

Orlok, now it says she was a lightweaver

Great. Sadly, I would also be more easily convinced that if we have any more edgedancers, they may be elim. Gah.

And another edgedancer bites the dust... *facepalm*. Seriously, can we not kill any more edgedancers? If there are even any more left????

Elims dying, villagers not dying. Also, me not dying would be nice too.

Nights tend to be more quiet due to not being much to do, for those who don't have night roles, who are not exactly inclined to share in-thread. I hope everything goes well tonight.

Jai was settling down for the night in a new alleyway when he heard their voices. The Boys. Storms. How had they found him? "Jai, we know you're in there. It's going to be cold tonight, we have an open bed and a warm meal," called one of the two brothers. Always pretending to be generous, always giving away the Boys were. Jai hated that. He knew if he accepted their "kindness," he would need to do something for them. And Jai was beholden to no one, no body. They entered the alley, proffering a bowl of stew. Stew? That was a low blow. Jai loved stew. But, he remained quiet, trying to remain unnoticed against the wall. Sure enough, they had been bluffing him. They walked out of the alley, not seeing him, moving on to presumably try another one to draw him out. Fools. Alone at last, Jai pulled out one of the spheres he had stolen. He couldn't use them, people immediately knew he had stolen them. But if he collected enough, perhaps when he finally got off this mountain, he could use them to make a new life for himself. He reflected upon the afternoon. Instead of finding someone to shelter with, the entire village had moved to the inn and had drawn him into joining a massacre of a radiant! He had to get out of here. Maybe after the next highstorm, soon as he found shelter. Descending the mountain wouldn't be easy, but escaping this stifling village constantly trying to mother him like a chicken would be worth it.

I interpreted that as meaning that are not just open during the night.

Yeahhhhh.... *grumbles* please just do your best to not get killed tonight. I have more PMs to make. And RPing.

Storm it. Other edgedancer- please role claim if we are about to lynch you? I would really really rather not lose PMing ability right after I spent all that effort making PMs.

Essentially, dingo is a minimally active. He hasn't actually contributed, despite being asked to. Lynching minimally actives makes it harder for elims to hide in the shadows, and I think Swan is village, so I think Dingo is a better alternative. No day one lynch can really be considered perfect, but you have to start somewhere.

I'm still put off by mint herons lack of saying anything, but I think dingo is the better lynch, for the same reasons Dragonfly states. Plus, i think lynching minimal participants is a great idea, because that's one place elims like to hide, and it encourages more activity, because complete inactives are solved by pinch hitters. Unfortunately, that creates a tie, which I don't like, but hopefully we can convince more people to join in to make it so it can't be manipulated.

Did you ever retract your first vote on gecko in green? Ok you did. Vote count incoming. Weasel (1)- Ostrich Penguin (2)- Scorpion, Iguana Mouse (1) Dingo Dingo (3)- Falcon, Chameleon, Dragonfly Elephant (1) Hyena Axolotl (1)-Swan Scorpion (2) Tuatara, Albatross Crocodile (2)- Gorilla, Elephant Swan (4)- Gecko, Meerkat, Axolotl, Zebra Heron (1)- Beagle Meerkat (1) Toucan I think this is right. No it's not, Gecko has voted twice on this count. Darn it. All fixed, hopefully.

Excellent! Only 3 inactives, all of which who seem to have never gotten on to their accounts, so they'll probably be replaced by pinch hitters. Now, a vote count would be amazing. So I'll go back and tally if no one beats me to it

Thanks for checking in! Quartz Zebra, i see you there.

Someone is for sure not Alvron.
