    Why would I know anything about art posted to the write-up Yes. Yes it is Sindarin.
  2. Opal Lion
    Hmm. So this is very interesting.

    My friends are the Zhongli fanbois I'm not about to get involved, I've resisted Genshin this long

    Hey guys, taking bets on this. Sure, we're not in the dead doc yet, but why not just do this? Who'd win in a throwdown: One (1) Amber Bird or the Champion of Ayaka

    I know. My point about Heron is basically that - okay, maybe let me rephrase. Dragonfly's gem was definitely a D1 gem, because she was attacked D2. OoA doesn't allow it to be anything but D1. Due to the PMs he's been making which have not been contested by the people he claims to be in PMs with, Rhino's gem was also definitely a D1 gem. Because she made PMs N2, N3, and N4 - we can't theorise Evil Scholar. Heron's gem was also a D1 gem. Vulture's claimed warform from the Scholarform gem. For you to contest the warform claim specifically, you'd minimally have to claim scholarform and that you've been hanging on to that gem all this while, or that you're the scholar who put on warform Edited to add: I was in each of those Heron PMs so I can confirm. Edited to add #2: Hey Elims if you come for me tonight: You gotta come with that song That's a tomorrow problem. I mean, only so many possibilities but assuming we think it's a claim, Elims who claim in the Night generally do it because there's little the Village can do about it. If it is a claim, he's either claiming Malibu (and thus plans to hop), or he's claiming Elim, which points to the fact he/the team is confident we can't lynch him tomorrow. Which could mean endgame. Since we can't really do anything about this, I suggest we just get back to PM coverage and animal karaoke and leave the Mouse for the morning

    I mean, regardless of whether you said it or not, I don't think there's another option now. There are at maximum four warform gems in this game. We have three confirmed warforms all claiming to have acquired it C1 and I know for a fact Heron did not attune N2 and N3 and probably N4 come to think of that. For you to contest the warform claim, you'd have to admit to...being both warform and a scholarform. Oh dear. Oh dear me Edited to add: I probably should've slept but sometimes painkillers don't work. Word of advice sometimes just don't wing it it's not worth it. Edited to add2: Tbh I noted it and forgot, my bad. I think I'm so used to you late voting I'm just like ??? no more last minute Beagle today?

    You can't put on a form and send the write-up stuff in the same Turn. Each is an action. It's why my Making Art (TM) takes up an action and I don't PM at night anymore. So it'd defeat the purpose anyway since the point of confirming Tuatara isn't confirming they're Village but that they're not Malibu.
  8. Opal Lion
    That's what I'm curious about. It felt like there was no urgency, which to be fair, I guess you didn't feel any knowing you were warform but it also sounded semi uninvested which I would not have expected from a Villager. That's just my toneread though. The Vulture push...IDK. It's hard to sus you and Falcon for it when I myself have flipped views on Vulture (sorry Vulture!) near the end of the cycle but I maintain I had a powerful knee-jerk gut nope to that PM and then had to work through what was troubling me about it. At the same time, it feels like you guys weren't really into the push and at that time it felt like another attempt to splinter the vote off you. I guess that's a long way of saying I don't know what to think but telling me Vulture is more suspicious than you doesn't change my suspicions of you, at core. The only reason I lightened on you is because Vulture was pushing so hard for your lynch and I hardcore suspected him after that move. Now? Soddit, I need painkillers and rest and then I'll rethink.
  9. Opal Lion
    Thoughts: -Again, I'm conflicted. Vulture's actions and responses were weird. Plus, if we assume that Vulture really is the Village Scholarform, then it wouldn't be difficult for the Elim Scholarform to assume Vulture used the warform gem on himself rather than lug it around. Giving someone else warform is too much trust that early on. He probably got hit by a decayform Elim the Night he claimed anyway, if there's one. Which means that while he would never have attracted a CW (dubious, depending on how much Elims wanted to save Heron), he would also never have needed to fear himself becoming the CW. As Rhino and I have pointed out, he's never been able to directly answer that simple question we keep asking. -Heron's responses to the voting are also weirdly subdued, if we assume that Heron was a Villager who also suspects Vulture. Basically Heron also just keeps digging and Heron's main response has been 'k but Vulture sus' which doesn't help me with my suspicions of them. -Beagle abstained from voting today, likely knowing the warform jig was up. -Due to OTing and other stuff on my plate, I'm too tired to keep up aggressive RPing but I'm active enough in PMs that a dead artform or a Lion failing to check in should be sus. I'm fine with this. -I'm disheartened that <Mouse, Vulture, Scorpion, Beagle, Rhino, Dragonfly, Lion> excluding Vulture, whom I am rethinking aggressively, Dragonfly, and Rhino, most of the final votes on Heron also come from players I suspect. This is worrisome. -If Beagle is not warform, then the results of D4 are even more mysterious, given Vulture voted for Beagle and Dragonfly and I essentially caused that chaotic vote tie. Where were the Elims? Tempted to lightly read Beagle Village for this, though it could also be a bus. -As Rhino pointed out, our main Malibu pool shrinks to: <Mouse, Beagle, Tuatara.> Given that Tuatara's second PM involved our PoE, that's a bit eh but players will player, which is my general philosophy on these things. We also have a missing artform to account for, and that elusive scholarform. If Beagle is truthful in claiming they are not the scholarform, this entails it has to be Mouse or Tuatara. I don't recall Tuatara meeting scholarform requirements subsequently so if they were, they're sitting on it. RP counts to the scholar requirements so Mouse is meeting it. Off the top of my head, I don't recall if Beagle has been meeting the scholarform requirements recently. -Given Vulture swapped to warform, it is if true not possible that Vulture could have been making the Evil gems. To me, Village Vulture likely indicates the Elim team hasn't been using their stash and has been seeking to distribute those gems to Villagers instead. Conversely, if Vulture really was making Evil gems, why isn't the Village scholar calling this out? Did both Village gems go to Elims? This should be a slam-dunk thing to warn about. -It is theoretically possible Malibu could be hiding among our mateforms. The only possible Malibu in this scenario is Scorp, as Hyena confirmed being mates with Weasel, and Pengiun with Falcon, meaning both were in mateform at least once. Scorp being Malibu would minimally implicate Weasel in lying with Scorp (in the scenario Malibu went for the mateform gem), if not one of <Mouse, Tuatara, Beagle>, in the scenario two Elims claimed the mateform gem and Malibu went for artform but lied. -I need more painkillers.

    Sir What do you have against Art(TM)
  11. Opal Lion
    ....................................... Also this.
  12. Opal Lion
    Sigh. Vulture, Heron, under extreme protest.
  13. Opal Lion
    But that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying that Village you had no reason to message Flamingo, given you no longer had credence Flamingo was Evil. I'm saying Village you had every reason to keep quiet, precisely because of your reasoning. That once this is out of the bag, this can't bait Elims. You keep construing me as saying that Elims who go on you now will reveal themselves. But that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying that Village Vulture had no reason to talk to Flamingo and pressure Flamingo with all that talk about losing the game. Village Vulture doesn't care if the CW goes to him. Acting in this manner would defeat what Village Vulture wanted. I'm saying that before that fateful PM message, we had a win-win scenario - a grinch on top suspect Heron, or a CW on you, which, according to your warform claim, you would survive, neatly revealing the Elim team. I'm saying that this PM message deliberately created a situation in which the win-win scenario wouldn't happen. If you succeeded, it would force a Heron grinch, removing the option in which the Elim team does show their hand, and we kill them tomorrow. The fact you deliberately closed off that option is suspicious.
  14. Opal Lion
    But this still doesn't make sense. An exe on you that lures the Elims out of hiding and one that you survive? That's not a wasted exe. That's hella informationally powerful. That's more Progression than any Edgedancer has. That's one hell of an edge.
  15. Opal Lion
    You can research each form once, unless the other Scholar beats you to it. Vulture only made one gem with it because he attuned to a different form N2 and therefore couldn't any longer. You mean... Like a player who was inactive, replaced by a pinch-hitter, and then suddenly started producing > 150 words RP?
  16. Opal Lion
    Am I, if you're Elim? The logic doesn't check out. We can try to CFD to another target. This would be late cycle madness and guarantee a bad decision. We now know Heron has also claimed warform, so if your claim that we have zero chance of getting an Elim is based off your surviving the lynch, we have the exact same predicament with regard to Heron. And furthermore, Heron was still destined for the lynch one way or another at the point in time you messaged Flamingo. As we both claimed - initially - to be very confident Heron was Evil, ensuring a Heron lynch or a Elim CW on you, if you're Village Vulture, would've been a very good play. If we don't get Heron, we get everyone who CWed. Your PM specifically put us in a position where we have to make the best of worst choices. And if you are Elim, we would have to deal with you one way or another. This cycle, or at the end. My stated position was always to go for you last if you were Elim because we can't afford to mess around this cycle, but once I'm Elim-reading you and you're pushing this strongly for Heron, going Heron is playing to lose. From my perspective, another Elim would be best, but if we can't do that at this stage, going on you is best.
  17. Opal Lion
    Are you frithing kidding me
  18. Opal Lion
    Dude. You claimed you used Scholarform to make a warform gem D2 in your PM with me and @Ivory Dragonfly, and that you attuned it N2. If you're the CW, the Elims essentially out themselves for free and then we can take them out like spearing fish in a barrel the next day. We don't lose here. If you're the CW, we go into the Night 7/5, with a successful NK making us 6/5. And then we kill the Elims who revealed themselves trying to go after you. Edited to add: Lion doesn't know what he thinks anymore and is screaming at the walls in his confusion. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA The whole basis for my vote is essentially the timing, the phrasing, and the feel of that PM compared to Vulture's earlier claims. I fully admit I could be wrong and I badly want to be wrong because I don't know anymore and I don't understand anything and nothing makes sense. Going after a claimed warform isn't ideal but if we're working on the 7/5 assumption, we cannot mislynch. If that's the case, going after you is actually the safe play, precisely after how that PM tripped my misgivings about the Heron lynch. ...And now Heron sounds so sus again I'm also tempted to go back to Heron. Why. Y u do dis everyone .___.
  19. Opal Lion
    We don't need another Malibu IKYK puzzle with under two hours to rollover. We just need to get this frithing lynch right. God .___.
  20. Opal Lion
    Because unlike what you said to Flamingo, you know we don't lose if the Elims CW you. And in fact, if you are Village Vulture, then it would be the biggest mistake they've made. The timing, the pressure, and the stakes of that PM don't feel right. Village Vulture would love to bait them into that mistake. I'm happy to have been paranoid and I hope I am because something about this situation really stinks and my gut is probably in knots by now.
  21. Opal Lion
    Is2g check your bloody PMs now please. Edited to add: Sorry, this sounded harsh. I'm in major panic mode - sorry Rhino. I'm gonna try to take a chill pill instead of breaking down.
  22. Opal Lion
    Bro. Bad vibes from that PM. Bad vibes all around. Worst vibes. Either my gut is a Darkfriend which fair, I did trust Wyrm just because we were entertaining the darkeyes together, or my gut is picking up what my rational mind ain't.
  23. Opal Lion
    Am I gonna regret this? Probably. Am I worried as hell? Is the atomic weight of cobalt 58.9? Heron, Vulture. Consider me to have a very, very very bad case of the jitters. Sorry Steel. Hier stehe ich. Ich kann nicht anders. Gott helfe mir. I don't think I have the bandwidth or focus to RP but given the preponderance of artforms and how chatty I've been in PMs, I feel like I can afford to let it slide this cycle.
  24. Opal Lion
    Okay. If more things do not make sense I swear I'm gonna projectile vomit. 1. If, as the theory is, Vulture is an Evil Scholarform who has been making these voidgems, why have we not heard from a Village Scholar? This should be a slamdunk: PM Dragonfly/Rhino. Or I guess me if you like my jokes. A Village Scholar should be able to tell someone has been researching Evil forms. (Man, if only Fifth were playing, so many Evil Scholar jokes.) Has anyone been receiving Village gems that shouldn't be in stock? Do we have any signs of life here? 2. Same thing as what Rhino said but with this cycle, we have a decent chunk of distrusted or null players all voting on Heron. If there's a cfd I bloody swear... 3. @Mint Heron, this could be lylo. Why is Village!Heron so chill with this?
