... ok hold up. Re: codes for shade doc identification, that would work for exactly one comment and then proceed to be useless because anyone who wants to imitate that person can just copy the code along with the formatting. Unless we made a huge list of codes so we would never run out, that would never be useful. Plus it feels a bit against the spirit of the shade doc. Also it just occured to me that you could put another code at the end of every message, but no. That would be stupid. Also, quick poll: do you guys think proving identity by using the who's online section is shard is ok or against the spirit of the doc? Personally I'm not a fan but I figured I'd ask for opinions. ... I don't like this but it feels like a fura thing to do, so no vote. If vote on xino for the code thing but overall that's a very xino thing to do, so. Yeah I guess I'll have to read over the thread more.

You got it! Good job. Couple clarifications: there are no reflective surfaces and they can't communicate. I didn't include this, but the standard riddle says that the activist was only allowed to say something that everyone on the island already knew.

Oh shoot I didn't realize this had started! Hi! I'll post something substantial soon.

Oh shoot ok. In that case let me look up the wording so I don't mess up and make it impossible. There is an island with 100 people trapped on it. Each of those people has blue eyes. The owner of the island allows any person to leave each night if they know their own eye color. Each person is a perfect logician and knows that every other person is a perfect logician. Every person can see every other person's eye color at all times and knows whenever anyone leaves. One day, a human rights activist is allowed to come on and speak one sentence to all 100 people. That sentence is: "I see at least one person with blue eyes." Given this information, how many people leave, and on what night do they do so? Fair warning, this has been said to be the hardest riddle of all time. You have to seriously think through it logically. The answer still confuses me when I'm in the wrong state of mind. Let me know if you need any clarifications. I'll edit it and put in a note if I made any mistakes.

Oh huh, that's kind of a variant of the blue eyed island riddle, although a bit different. I'll post that one if I manage to get the next riddle posted

Long Game 64: Choose Your Own Sanderson Adventure!
Kidpen replied to little wilson's topic in Sanderson Elimination
Honestly I think it was very close to being a reasonable mechanic, despite not actually taking place at any time. With a little tweaking it could change voting in an interesting way. Regardless, thanks Elbereth and Wilson for running the game! I had a lot of fun both in the beginning when rules were being created and over the course of the game.- 421 replies

Took me a while to respond to this, but mostly various modpacks with too many mods to list. My favorites are Thaumcraft, Botania, and a conglomeration of various tech mods that make automation fun. Hmm. I might be interested? Honestly chances are that I would play for a couple days then get bored and move on, but you never know! My username is kidpen if you want to whitelist me and post the IP! Is it just, like, a survival hangout server?

I wasn't paying attention during the cycles after my death, but I feel the need to give kudos to @Straw, because I had no idea you were the Smedry. Ironically you probably shouldn't have have killed me, because I think I would've defended you down to my last breath.- 421 replies

Experience. I think Experience seems like a pretty reasonable lynch. Plus I want to prevent a hammer. Also I'm sorry for such low activity. I do feel the need to say that Elandera's posts have kind of been itching at me, but I don't know why. I would be very open to a lynch on her next day. I'll try to look through her posts and determine if there's more to it than just my gut.- 421 replies

If You Had 3 Reality Altering Wishes, What Would You Do?

So suddenly anyone can invade and wage war without the threat of nuclear destruction? Cause I think that would basically result in everyone invading everyone else at once. -

Tonight? Probably Coda, I suppose, if he doesn't die. I'm not convinced on his lynch but I trust the thread to come up with a pretty reasonable lynch at least. I'd like to point out that Ironfire was a complete inactive. I think we should be looking in the more inactive members. I'll be looking through previous threads and posting my thoughts within 4 hours I think. Keep in mind that there's no direct quoting, just paraphrasing, iirc.- 421 replies

I'm not getting involved in the main convo (that's a lie I'm absolutely going to get involved later) but you're absolutely not asking too much. If you haven't seen this wob: So he is absolutely planning to include more characters and protagonists that fall under one of the spectrums eventually, it's just that he's worried about doing it right. I understand if people disagree with me but I think he's doing his best when it comes to LGBTQ+ characters and I appreciate it, even if he's not at a point yet where he's confident enough to write a more major character as LGBTQ+. Ack it's getting real difficult to not respond to some of the above comments but I'll resist until tomorrow when I'm on a computer at least.

???? Am I misunderstanding this somehow? It looks like an implied elim claim. I suppose it could just be saying that Joe's reasoning is valid but wrong, but that seems unlikely given the response you've had to Joe thus far.- 421 replies

Long Game 64: Choose Your Own Sanderson Adventure!
Kidpen replied to little wilson's topic in Sanderson Elimination
Arthur Smedry looked around in terror. Just moments earlier, he had seen and heard a mysterious apparition within one of his private discussion areas. He could be wrong, but it seemed, perhaps, to have been... The ghost of the 30th president, @Calvin Coolidge! But no, that's nonsense. Everyone knows that the 30th president, Calvin Coolidge, isn't real. Even if he was real, everyone knows that the ghost of the 30th president, Calvin Coolidge, would be even less real then the president himself. But then again, there were all those legends from the free kingdom about the 30th president, Calvin Coolidge. Perhaps they had some truth to them... No, of course not. A scholar such as Arthur had never payed any mind to those legends. The one about the 30th president, Calvin Coolidge, that is. Perhaps it was just a trick of the light. Or a trick by some mischievous person, intending to make Arthur believe that the 30th president, Calvin Coolidge, was haunting him. Yes, that surely is the answer.- 421 replies

Unless it's different for me somehow, you can always sign in with your email. I just checked, and on the sign in page it says 'Username or Email Address'. Even if it doesn't, just try entering your email where you would enter your username.

Long Game 64: Choose Your Own Sanderson Adventure!
Kidpen replied to little wilson's topic in Sanderson Elimination
I was very clear throughout in my high preference for lynching over jailing, and I wanted to guarantee that would happen. That was my main reason, although it also generally seemed I'd like to point out that Elkanah's edit seems to very clearly imply there was only one Crystal Knight. Whether we should take that as it seems or assume Elkanah is misleading us deliberately, I'm not entirely sure. Edit: Also, Elkanah couldn't have converted anybody yet. The rules say 'That is, conversion is available Nights 1, 3, 5, 7... assuming every possible conversion occurs.' Meaning, as I interpret it, that conversion is a night action that wouldn't have taken place yet.- 421 replies

Alright, the Sart vote is dying off and I didn't love it to begin with. However, Elkanah seems like a wonderful lynch to me for similar reasons to everyone else that I will try to outline before the end of the cycle, and plus it seems to be the best candidate for an actual lynch rather then a jailing.- 421 replies

Kidpen replied to little wilson's topic in Sanderson Elimination
Elandera(1): The_God_KingKynedath(1): FifthSart(1): xinoCoda(1): Sart 6 hours until the end and we have 4 different votes on 4 different people. Obviously this is an undesirable situation. It seems to me that locking someone up is not at all helpful, we get no information from it. With that in mind, I'm going to vote for Sart. I don't think Coda's codes are alignment indicative, and I dislike Sarts vote on him. Plus to me it feels likely that an elim might want to divide the vote even further by voting for someone not already being voted for. That being said I do understand the feeling of being desperate to vote on someone, and I'd very much like a lynching rather than a locking up this cycle, so if one of the other candidates gets another vote I might move to them.- 421 replies

Long Game 64: Choose Your Own Sanderson Adventure!
Kidpen replied to little wilson's topic in Sanderson Elimination
Did I miss something specifying what information is released if someone is locked up and how much if they are lynched? Cause I didn't see it specified in the rules, although I thought I remembered someone saying that all roles and alignment are revealed in either case. Other question. Do you guys think we should be using our pm abilities as much as possible, or as little as possible, or only when we actually want to communicate with someone? Any elims might be covered if we all started making PMs, but also any power roles for the village would be. Last thing, maybe we should tell each of our starting pm people who the other is? I feel like that could provide useful information, although I may be forgetting something.- 421 replies
