Can I bring a phone?

Well yes, but there's a part 4 and I just want to know this one

@Channelknight Fadran, could you spoiler box tell me what the rule is, since I already got in and have no idea how?

Hey! No advertising!

I will. In the form of RP! Though for your benefit I'll use the display names as opposed to the RP names. Dasehe took out a quill and ink, and a fresh sheet of paper from her bag and spread it out on the dirt, preparing to write. A member of the party, who only called themselves EZ- a ridiculously hard name to pronounce, without any proper aonic sounds- had requested a recap on the past few days, as they had been asleep under a tree for most of the events. Dasehe would've just told them- but they were back under the tree, asleep again. And while the possibility that EZ was a Jeskeri was real, that didn't mean Dasehe had to be unkind. A brief recap of the unfortunate events of the week, She wrote, then started the list. When she was finished, this was the result. Day one: Temple door discovered. Does not open. An argument was started over how the Jeskeri might act, and Sart suggested a plan that was rebutted by everyone fairly quickly. Three people were killed: Straw, by the mysterious Cultists, Mint, by the mob, and Lotus, by unknown causes, possibly the Jeskeri. The first two were our fellow Korathi, the latter a Practitioner. Day two: No advancement on the temple door. More argument. Charges leveled against myself for starting the suspicion on Mint- didn't go anywhere. A tie was made on Illwei and Ashbringer, the first of whom I still suspect is a Practitioner, but Ash was chosen and was a Korathi. More deaths followed, Xino, a Practitioner, and Gears, another Korathi. Domi, save us! Day three: More talk of Sart, and myself. I voiced initial suspicion on Kasimir, but by the end of the day that had almost entirely flipped. Vapor was decided to be slaughtered by the mob, and was yet another Korathi- our judgement continues to fail us. Drake was killed and was revealed to be a Practitioner, a large surprise, and TJ is now a dead Korathi. I would suggest examining Kasimir's writings, especially the one at the conclusion of yesterday, as there is a lot of good speculation there. General consensus: Sart is a Cultist, but nearly nothing beyond that. I personally don't trust anyone. I cannot be sure anyone shares my beliefs. For you, that is something you will have to decide. Yours truly, Dasehe Many hopes of survival for us all, Domi bless you When she was done, she folded the note and slipped it next to EZ as he slept soundly against the tree trunk. He would see it soon, his request filled. Dasehe finally felt she had done something right. There, even if it isn't very good and is sort of me-centered. Someone else could probably give you a better recap, though I tried. Complete game vote count listed here:

*Grows a palm tree and picks own palm fronds*

Here is promised analysis of Drake's posts for the entirety of the game. (Quotes of the full posts in spoiler boxes) RP. Means nothing. I think the part about Sart probably is Drake trying to blend in, but him saying he doesn't think Jeskeri!Sart would've suggested it I think further supports the idea of Sart being a Jeskeri, as this was posted C1 where Jeskeri protecting Jeskeri was more in interest, though now it's looking more like he's actually a Cultist. The last part could be distancing, or Kasimir is just a Korathi. More stuff on Sart's plan, I can't find any meaning. The poke on Elk I believe was before they posted. Vote tally, doesn't mean anything. Vote on Illwei could mean anything, if Illwei is Korathi than it wouldn't mean anything but if Illwei is Jeskeri that would be Drake making an attempt to find a Cultist. The second paragraph (the one after replying to TJ) says something similar to what Pyro said at the beginning of the cycle, I find that interesting. Drake trusts Illwei, with no explanation. Not sure why. Votes Hael, which I can't decipher because I don't know if Drake voted on other Jeskeri to try to find Cultists (Illwei, Hael) or Korathi to try to find the Korathi Cultist. Trusts Kas, also don't know why, though it could mean Kas is in the Jeskeri doc, though I agree with a lot of the things Kas said in his final post of C3. Don't like the part about trusting me. I can't see any reason he would've put that there, unless he figured he would die in the Jeskeri lynch and wanted to bring me down with him. @Kasimir, not entirely sure what 'pocket' means, though if it's what I said above, then possibly. Edit: Looked up 'pocketing' in the SE Lexicon. If that was what he was trying to do, it worked. To answer Kasimir's question, this post is why I initially dropped off Illwei, and part of why I trusted Drake. Now that he's flipped JP I'm not sure, though his flip-flop relation to Illwei seems Jeskeri-Jeskeri to me. And that's all. TL;DR, he mostly trusted Kasimir and Illwei- some of my initial Jeskeri reads- and distrusted Hael, who I had as Null. Not as much in his posts as I thought, but that's fine. I did decide I'm not as relaxed about Illwei after reading these. Probably won't post for awhile (xD yeah right) unless I'm tagged.

...Why? There's 12 players left. 3 Korathi left would mean 9 Jeskeri left, meaning a distribution at the beginning of 9 Korathi to 12 Jeskeri. I assumed there was definitely more Korathi than that. Now I will reply to @Kasimir's post last cycle, specifically concerning me, of which I wrote during rollover in my notes doc. Hmm, that’s actually pretty fair. I haven’t played many QF’s- this being my 2nd- and am more accustomed to the 48-hour periods of which to vote that are more common in MR’s and LG’s. I do like my suspicions, though, and I suppose you could say I’m a bit like Araris in that regard. I might want to try to change this, though, and don’t have anything to say in response except “good point” Didn’t you just say that me sticking with my votes to an extreme is suspicious? This counters that. What can I do? It is concerning- that's why I brought it up. Though I was slightly worried about the responses I would get if I over-said it, but it appears I get a response either way Still working on discovering the balance of things like that. The fact that the two people I noticed following my votes- Gears and Vapor- were both Korathi should be a point in my favor. See above. Do I appear that way? All I can do in this game is analyze the thread posts, so if that seems shallow, that’s too bad. (Though I guess I can RP) Ah well. Nothing I can say about this to change your mind. And while I obviously disagree with the above points, the rest of your post made sense. So I'll lay off of you for now.

All three of the people who died were people I had actual reads on. And all of those reads were wrong. I don't know what this means, though I am gonna take a look at all of Drake's posts, so expect that in about an hour.

*Odium enters the chat*

I just discovered this thread is the 4th longest on the sub-forum, by going through the sub-forum page and examining the counts. Number FOUR. Out of ONE-HUNDRED AND SIXTY. Yahoo!

I feel a lot of pressure in what I'm about to do. Kasimir Vapor Here is my reasons for doing this As the cycle has progressed I have had an increasingly bad feeling about lynching Kas I read his 'don't read this unless I die' thing. (Sorry, but it helped convince me :P) and also I really like that last post (even if it does convict me) I am also suspicious of Vapor, so this switch doesn't really change much, but she's moved ahead of Kas now I don't really feel comfortable voting alongside a suspected Cultist and JP Uh, so there Kasimir, consider yourself saved, at least for now.

Hate to break it to you, but it's book 10: https://coppermind.net/wiki/The_Stormlight_Archive See the table.

Ummmm what? I'm the one concerned that people are following my votes Also, can you clarify what this ^ means, because I have no idea.

I mean, that's not exactly what I meant But maybe? I just don't know with you. And it looks like Vapor's back with another pop-in vote on who I just voted on! Probably doesn't have anything to do with me, but still something I notice. Hmm.

I don't know what I'm doing different this game. Not completely sure why you're voting on me when you said you get a "non-JP read". Also, on Mint, it was relatively early C1. Is anyone going to have exceptionally good reasons for their very first vote of the game? I would think, as the initiator of the lynch, my reasons would be better than the ones of the 4 people who jumped on it in the last 10 minutes of the cycle. I didn't vote Illwei right off the bat because I wanted to see what he/others had to say- which now I'm glad I did, because some people have put up a decent defense of him, such as this: 'You' being Illwei. I have a decent Korathi on Drake, and this is enough to get my vote off Illwei, at least for the moment. As for fear of being followed, it was more of a paranoia, but now that Gears was Cultist-killed that lessens some of that. Now for some reads: Haelbarde- I don't know with Hael. He hasn't posted much, the ones he has mainly giving votes. The thing about Pyro was accurate, though lying in PM's isn't necessarily AI. Null read Kasimir- I've actually found myself disagreeing with most of Kasimir's reads, though the reasoning behind them is sound. Very Mild-JP gut read. Devotary of Spontaneity- As per usual, Devotary is hard to read. But I'd say Null, with my initial suspicion and her good points being enough to balance the scale TJ Shade- I have a tendency to read you as elim when you're village, and when I don't want to do that, it makes me wonder. I'll echo you when I say something feels different about you, meaning something almost feels Korathi. Almost. And I've always been wrong about you. Tentative Non-Korathi read Lord_Silberfarben- I'm sorry, but I am not a fan of Silber's playstyle. Just popping occasionally, and not actually saying anything (which basically is the opposite of what I do ) So with nothing to go on, Null read. I wouldn't say TJ's reason is enough for a JP, because that's Silber's playstyle in every game, not just the elim ones. Young Bard- I have an instant gut JP read for their vote on me, but that isn't a very good reason, and that's the only thing I can recall them doing. Null read, @Young Bard, have your current suspicions changed from yesterday? Mist- Hasn't really said anything. Null. StrikerEZ- A strange pop-in vote on Mint C1, but that's pretty much it. I could see this being a JP move, but also not. Null. The Young Pyromancer- Seems as chaotic and unreadable as always. Not sure what to make of his forgetting about the Jeskeri doc, but a gut Korathi read DrakeMarshall- I have a gut good read on Drake, and like most of his reasoning, though I'm not sure of his vote on Hael. Slight Korathi read Vapor- I think they have 2 posts total, both being pop-in votes that don't make much sense. Non-Korathi read Sart- Where to begin. Initially he was my only Cultist read, but as the game has gone on, his actions have slowly seemed more village to me. I'll say Non-JP Illwei- Decently strong JP read, though it's less strong now after the above Drake posts and his own. Elkanah- I'll give Elk a Slight Korathi read for their analysis, though Ash flipped village and they were one of the strongest supporters of their lynch. I seem to have a lot of Null reads. Shows you how much I understand this game. Though my JP reads are Kasimir and Illwei, I could see Young Bard, TJ, Vapor and Devotary possibly there as well, though obviously all of them can't be in terms of player number. I have no idea who the Cultists could be. I haven't thought about their potential strategies enough to decide that. RP to come later.

Yay! @Lunamor, @Fezzik, thanks for playing, your roasts were great! (I wanted a Wax Wayne battle too )

Lets keep it that way

About 3.5 years. You? Hmm, I'll see what I can do. Edit: WHY DO I ALWAYS START A NEW PAGE.............

xD totally true though. Might have something to do with me being too young to have a job and being stuck at home all day. I might be tunneling, but from my perspective, someone I'm suspicious of defending someone who just had a very good point made against them doesn't look too good. I do want to see @Kasimir's response, though.

I mean, I'm focusing on the votes because it's a good way to get analysis. Which is funny, because just posted that I disagreed with it The sides are forming! In all seriousness though, this is a good point. Still don't want to assume the Jeskeri will never vote for one of their own though.

I disagree. This is assuming the JP have control over the main lynch, and when considering that there were almost certainly more Korathi than JP to begin with and the Jeskeri lynch has taken out two, this is definitely not the case. They very well could have targeted Jeskeri in the lynch last cycle. We won't know because we only know the results for 4 votes. ...Which sort of makes me suspect you more, as this seems like an attempted redirect to get my attention off the votes. Maybe not though :P. So- what are you referring to with 'redirecting' here? Last I checked, there aren't any roles beyond the factions. Also- total meta theory here, with no proof- but who's to say Xino wasn't posting in the Jeskeri doc? El did post this in the OP last cycle: Which sort of seems like an unnecessary clarification. In wasn't a question that was asked (at least that I know of) and the only person who didn't post in-thread C1 was Xino, a now proven JP. So I'm wondering if he was active in the JP doc, even if that little detail doesn't matter much beyond explaining why he was J-lynched

Not sure what you mean.

I had a 14 years streak, started the day I was born, broken now. Storm off, @Channelknight Fadran's signature.

Then I don't have it figured out. But still, first one in!
