Mainly I suspected it legitimately for a while like everyone else did - mainly due to how you reacted when Mat claimed Vin, I think. But I knew when you killed Devotary, because I had Coinshot TUO, and I neither used the kill nor redirected it. So I knew there was at least one more Straff. ... I Coinshot three out of my four teammates. Wow. Sorry to leave you out, Striker And yeah, Liranil was me. Mainly I thought there wasn't a chance she was Straff but could go either way on Venture/Cett. And behold, Seeker. I'm fine with 24 hours.

Trust me, I was counting on it Illwei, what are you? I was predicting a Smoker between you and RandBy based on the extra Seekers/Rioters but now I have no clue what you are.

Faleast burned steel. Kredik Shaw… it was quite the monument. Older than AraRaash – he thought that it had been raised purely from the Lord Ruler’s powers, a massive spire free from human hands working on its surface. Faleast was simply in awe. Plus, it provided an excellent place to test out his new spike. Faleast hurtled through the air, wishing he had a mistcloak. He could make a fabrication of one, but that would draw some… unwanted attention if a Tineye or sharp-eyed guard managed to look in the wrong direction. He Pushed here, Pushed there… stopped. All of Luthadel was below him. “Do we know why it’s called Luthadel?” Faleast whispered. “I half expected Rashek to be named Luthad or something.” Faleast. We need to focus. “Right.” Faleast knew what had happened. The face he wore was a testament to it. He hadn’t reached his goal, not yet. It doesn’t matter what we do anymore. That changed the day you took this spike. Roko took Vin’s power, and it’s not about to use that power in her place. This world is dead, Faleast. Dead and Diverged. “A Divergence was the goal, was it not?” Faleast replied. “We could hardly find it without causing one.” Elend’s death wouldn’t impact enough. History would shift dramatically, but it would survive. But Vin gone? No. With no Preservation, there will be no Harmony. Ati will live unopposed. “So it doesn’t matter…”. Faleast smiled. “We can do whatever we want.” It’s up to chance. Too much chance. But it could work. Faleast’s grin grew wider. “Then let’s give it a shot.” And he jumped, coins swirling around his body. Flicking heads to tails. Which way they landed - and who they landed in - would be up to a lot of interpretation. The Bystander had forced his hand. So now the hands of Faleast spun, flaring steel, increasing velocity until he would land. "Oh, Roko, Roko, Roko..." Faleast whispered. "When will you learn that you can't trust me?" Illwei Random Bystander I'll be honest, I've got no idea how this is going to end. So good game all around, and hail Straff Venture.

... you got a PM with Quinn, didn't you.
-
... I was also really busy that game (even before I had to drop out), so I would say that's more likely the similarity. I'm just cursed with busyness when I'm also an Elim... It's also just easier to remember to get on right before/after rollover. I'll probably be around more once the MR ends... unless I end up running the QF. Then who knows.
-
"QF" and "long" fortunately don't go hand in hand very often ... very often.
-
FYI, I might not end up taking the QF slot if this level of busy-ness stays up. I probably still could do it, but rollover would be at a weird time and I'd need a co-GM (Lotus, I think). But if anyone's really looking forward to running a QF and wants to jump ahead... I'm not going to stop you
-
Whysper I can do more than talk about tying the vote... and something's rubbing me the wrong way. So a tie it is. Edit: Nope, me and Mat posted simultaneously. Nevermind.
-
I'm debating tieing it (or un-tieing it like last time). Let me look at Whysper first. Edit: Tying? Tieing? Tiing?
-
I count eight living players viewing the thread, so I feel like there's still some time.
-
Is it 7 (or 6 from Spokes) votes on Dannex, 3 on Whysper? It's hard to follow vote counts when there's a lot of D1 counts... Since I was asked how I feel about TJ... not much to go off of but that big post feels very TJ-ish. It also feels sort of like Archer... maybe that's just because I'm used to him doing the big posts. So I'll lean Village on him (as much as one can for his post level), because I think I know what TJ feels like and how that was different with Elim!TJ in the Dragons QF.
-
... I forgot to follow the thread. In class right now but I'll post something in an hour or two.
-
Illwei it is, then. I've still got no clue what you are, but at this point a target scan is all the lead we're going to get. @Random Bystander, you around? Gears, out of curiosity, why dura-tin instead of dura-iron?
-
Well, here we go...
-
An "inverse Tineye" scan iirc. I'm not sure what the functional difference between that and a Tineye scan is unless it sees all visits instead of just 1, though.
-
Well, I can confirm I'm the Coinshot, because that's going to get assumed anyway. I'll wait on revealing what I did until I get an answer back from TJ, because I always thought Terris was a passive ability... that would be strange for the same scan to hit me twice, but I've seen weirder things. ... I'm voting for TUO because I think he's Cett, Illwei... Unless there's somehow only one Straff left, this is exe-lo. 4 Villagers, 3 Elims, 3 deaths today unless Gears gets lucky with iron or there's another Thug out here somewhere... killing off Cett would make it a standard game near the end but killing off one of the Straffs prevents a potential 2v2.
-
I'd say in this game it's very AI. You haven't done too much because of low post counts, but what you did do C1 was encourage a now-confirmed Cett to vote on the same target that the now-confirmed Cett Mistborn voted on. Maybe I'll have time to ISO you, but I doubt it. Meanwhile, Books and RandBy have done almost nothing AI, because they have similar small post counts. I'm also really not liking Books showing up to vote on my reasons with no comment on anything else. ( @Flyingbooks, I know you're around...) And... that... doesn't give me any clue to your role. At all.
-
@The Unknown Order, @Flyingbooks, @Random Bystander. Do you have anything to add as reasons we shouldn’t vote you out? Suspicions? Thoughts? Scan results? Because besides these early interactions (and the general D2/3 chaos) I have nothing to distinguish you. Same for @Devotary of Spontaneity. We know your role, but because of being a pinch-hitter there’s not much to go off of on you either.
-
I highly doubt there's only one Elim among the seven of us. Or at the least we shouldn't assume so. Here's my D1 Mat/Striker - I'm trying to just narrow it down to objective things at first, namely Naming, Mentioning/@ing, Voting, Quoting. Might add on D2 if I feel up to it. I'm also going to do mentions of Zane/Gneorndin, mainly because Tani and Reading both talked about Gneorndin really early D1. (But... I... also talked about Zane/Gneorndin D1. A lot. Sigh.) Dead players are colored with their alignment - Orange for Cett, Purple for Straff, Blue for Village. Living players are not. (Not even you, Gears.) Things involving living players are bolded D1 Matrim: Thoughts: Most of the bouncing posts (back and forth quoting more than twice) involving Mat are also involving Reading/Tani, with the exception of Quinn (probably because, well, Quinn posts a lot). Most momentary interactions (of living players) are Illwei and Ash (me). TUO is interesting, as they both quickly voted alongside Mat and Tani and had a 3-post quote chain with Mat, initiated by TUO. No one voted for Mat D1, that I could see. D1 Striker: Thoughts: Striker interacted a lot less, and also a lot less with Biplet (at least D1) Again the main living players who interacted with Striker was Illwei and Ash, with Ash having a large block near the beginning. Great. Illwei poke-voted Striker early on in the game - Striker had not yet posted. Random Bystander quoted Striker near the very end of the game Books did not interact with either Mat or Striker D1; neither did Experience --> Devotary of Spontaneity. TUO only interacted with Mat, RandBy only interacted with Striker. Ash and Illwei interacted with both. Gears... meh. Apparently I talked about Gneorndin... and Zane... a lot.
-
... yes it does? Uh oh. Either way, we've got a Rioter about. Probably Village, but with decentralized teams anything is possible. Illwei - Steel is a random redirect. The target's action is sent to a random individual, not a one chosen by the redirectors.
-
I don't think Elim!Dannex + Elim!Spokesperson makes too much sense. Dannex wasn't on for the last bit of rollover, so he wasn't on to self-pres. I feel like an Elim that close to death would at least make an effort to be on to self-pres if necessary instead of forcing the Elim vote manip to save him instead. E!Striker would imply E!Dannex more than E!Spokes would in my opinion. I... lost where I was going with this I didn't have much of a read on Dannex besides their relative quietness this game, but I'm not one to talk about that, am I.
-
And that vote maniper wasn't Dalinar (unless he can turn votes to no-votes). Which... isn't surprising, but isn't really indicative of anything either. I think that makes me gut-trust Dannex a bit more. Well... it's marginally better than a Spokesperson tying it. More info that way.
-
Rebuttal: Dannex I don't have the info to make it a tie, but I've got enough to say I don't want a Spokesperson making it a tie for us...
-
I think... yeah, it was that one. But I think I'd just forgotten about Spokespersons so I thought the only D1 vote manip was the Confirmed Village Dalinar Nothing else on Striker, although I'm curious about Archer and Striker immediately thunderdoming about Highprince claiming. Seemed to be a genuine misunderstanding but there were a lot of people (TJ, Whysper, etc) taking sides on that.
-
... I love trying to catch up on a D1 thread. Water, water, everywhere, and not a drop to drink. There are vote manip roles besides Dalinar (the Spokesperson). So I'd rather it not be a tie if possible. I don't have infinite time but I'll look at Illwei vs Dannex. One of Striker's posts (I think the one about vote manip? I had to double check because I wasn't sure if there was a vote manip role besides Dalinar... it might have been warning about vote manip) felt off... Time is a valuable commodity. Sigh.
