Managed to sneak a minute on mobile. Personally, I think Vapor is just new-playering. In my first game I switched my vote multiple times early as well and backed off and defended myself plenty of times when it wasn’t necessary. Now I realize those weren’t the best tactics and probably Vapor doesn’t. A couple of suspicions on you really isn’t that big of a deal. I suppose a Pyro/Fifth tie would be fine. Currently Pyro is up 4-1. Edit: Apparently this was my 500th post. Cool.

As it is Father's Day in the USA I will probably be inactive for a few hours, possibly even until the end of the cycle. Here is a vote to avoid the filter. Pyro's vote seemed really weird for an experienced player, pointed out by Eternum. Actually, I agree with basically everything Eternum said there. Maybe will have time to pop back in. I don't really like the Fifth bandwagon.

I'm currently going with The Keeper of Winds. Assuming the 'The' doesn't count.

I believe it was you who said a new player elim would try to be more cautious. While Gears came out swinging Truthwatcher didn't- very flimsy reasoning on my part, I know. Literally the best thing I've got at this point . And Mint posted. With a good defense. Ugh. Back to the drawing board.

This post is NAI. It's just something I noticed I seem to have a trend going where I accidentally jump on the opposing role C1. In Joe's MR, I used the wrong player list and condemned Straw accidentally. He turned out to actually be an elim. In Striker's LG I jumped on Araris because I didn't know his playstyle. He turned out to be the first Kandra. Again, doesn't actually mean anything but just thought it was kinda funny

I said I'll try. Doesn't mean they'll be good. So the way I see this currently shaping up is the conflict over random votes, with two main sides to this (I believe the names are aligned correctly): For-Random: Fifth, Gears, and arguably Striker, Truthwatcher, and Eternum (?) Anti-Random: Straw, Devotary, Mist, Reading As for me, I don't really know. My initial vote on Silber was a randomly decided poke to prompt discussion as I believed that was the standard for how SE games began, so this line of thread discussion is pretty interesting. For me, the only posts really worth noting are Fifth's and the consecutive 3 blunt posts from Straw, Reading, and Mist all agreeing firmly against random voting. I find it interesting Straw is trying to promote more discussion from Fifth- his post was the most discussion-heavy so far this cycle with multiple multi-quotes and things like that. Generally I agree with what he's saying, especially this bit: But his vote on Straw does seem quick, though that's pretty much how most of the votes are flying right now. I quoted the 3 posts yesterday so I won't here, but I'll say my thoughts again. Never, in any of the other games I've played- again, only two others- has there been any slight discussion at all over random voting, and it wasn't any less prevalent then we're seeing right now. And for some reason there are plenty of people firmly against it, seemingly out of the blue. I don't really think this is AI, but I just thought it was strange. :/ (What is the meta on that, BTW?) I'd say my main village reads are Gears and Straw, and my main elim reads- faint they are- are Truthwatcher, for doing exactly what people have said a new elim might do, (might just be new player though) and, uh, I dunno if this is actually a solid read but Mint's post going after Gears seems weird to me. Truthwatcher for now. Edit: Wow, ninja'd by... 5 posts? Okay, changes: Truthwatcher talked, defending as a new player without any idea of how to get reads. I pity that as that basically was/is me... so, Mint. For now.

Good to see you Silber. I actually had never nailed down who that was, so that's good to know... Uh, replacement vote? Not required, but I'll need one eventually. I'm trying really hard to find something vote-worthy but I've discovered that I'm actually not that great at solid analysis- a pity, in a vanilla game- but we'll see what I can do. So, I disagree with the initial statement, I don't think that vote was hasty given the prior posts. I do agree with the larger second portion of this though. In all my games so far- which granted, this is my third- the game has started with many poke votes of which I see no difference from the start of this game. No one reacted to that much at all I the MR and LG. I dunno what the meta is about that but it seemed worth mentioning. All the stuff with Gears to me just seems like new-player confusion, with a 'first game plan' that maybe wasn't agreed on and then backpedaling to defend themselves, something of which I have done and have been told a single lynch vote isn't really anything to worry about. So, uh, no vote yet. :P. I'll probably solidify my actual suspicions in the morning when there are more posts and the discussion moves off the worth of poke votes.

I pinged Silber, so when he replies I'll most likely 100% change it. Voted early simply because it's mandatory.

Theory: Truthwatchers swear no oaths beyond the First Ideal...
Mat replied to robardin's topic in Stormlight Archive
It's pretty funny how quickly my mind went from This could be a cool theory! reading the title to a disheartened Oh. Points for you -
Hmm, thought this started tomorrow... My bad. This will certainly be a change for me. My first two SE games were both Role Madness and now my third game is 100% vanilla RNG gives my vote to Lord_Silberfarben (@Lord_Silberfarben) We'll see what happens when I actually take the time to get some reads. Edit: Read the posts more carefully. Sounds like the popular opinion is shying away from random votes, so once again I'll get some reads and then decide what to do. Edit No. 2 in C Major () @Orlok Tsubodai, how long are the cycles?

Mid-Range Game 42: The Auction of Lord Winsting

A bit late, but I’ve been wondering: @Araris Valerian, during signups you challenged me to a duel of unreadability. What would you consider the result of that? -
