    ... do I have time for this? ... guess I can make time Signing up as Bailis, a Siah Aimian who hears a familiar voice in her head. I've had an idea for a while, now to see if I can pull it off. Also Faleast doesn't want to get thrown into a Highstorm. Again.

    I tried okay
  3. Ashbringer
    I exist! Mostly. Would be nice to try and get a plot thread or two going. Poor Kalten has a single AV-canon post.
  4. Ashbringer
    I will pinch-hit, if able.
  5. Ashbringer
    I'll take Bronze This was fun! A nice bit of chaos for all.

    So how’s everyone’s day

    Mat.

    I thought Mat was supposed to vote for Sart

    I’m technically still in C6 so my alignment is Creatures

    Someone killed me before I could do my cool thing last round too Sart
  13. Ashbringer
    … so how does this work with my ability to time travel.
  14. Ashbringer
    True enough.
  15. Ashbringer
    Aye, I had to study a bit to understand the questions But, I did find the answer alone. I believe before the talk of tests had truly gone about, and Wonko’s contact can perhaps vouch that we had little in the way of information exchange. Plus, I think me spending so much time testing and understanding the Curse is enough to understand I’d use that potential a little bit harder.
  16. Ashbringer
    Assuming we all know the same Wonko, it doesn’t pass. What that means, not sure. Just that I sense danger here. And not just because 4 players are probably dying “this” cycle.
  17. Ashbringer
    There are far too many Null spots in the game for me to have a super comfortable read on anyone. Wonko’s gambit makes sense, but it’s obvious that there are exceptions and exemptions. It’s also… a little sketchy. And I think Wonko, technically, doesn’t pass it himself. Too many coincidences. Is it a coincidence that TJ was the Jabberwock kill that happened in “real” time while Wonko died in the past? Is it a coincidence both the Bandersnatches and the Jabberwock went after the player who held the Vorpal Sword? Is it a coincidence that Wonko was cursed? I like a TKN exe. Not sure how much I’ll like a Stick one but I see the logic.
  18. Ashbringer
    Part of my theory on why TKN is Jabberwock is that TKN might not necessarily have understood how the Time Curse works. They weren't a huge part of the C3 discussions. Also they haven't said much in their defense...
  19. Ashbringer
    Then irony there must not be! In rhyme I'm outmatched, so now I must flee! ... I have homework, you see
  20. Ashbringer
    Ironically I'm pretty sure Stick was the Mad Hatter

    Insane theory - Wonko's a time-cursed Jabberwock who killed himself in the past so we'd clear him because he'd know it wouldn't matter. ... okay unlikely. But, possible! ... well, not really, for reasons below. Maybe. Wonko PM'd me last turn (actual action-using PM, not a special Brillig one... at least it's not labeled as such), so he didn't use an action, so theoretically he wouldn't have an action to send back. It seems possible that an action then used on him could have been sent back in its place. Unless someone did something to me last turn, I wouldn't know exactly. Both times I've used an action while Cursed by Time it got sent to take "effect" a cycle earlier, with fairly obvious results. C2 I accidentally blocked Sart's Tea Party invite back in C1, and C3 I, uh... you guys probably noticed that too. Hence the screaming. Apparently it's not all actions, or Wonko's own Curse was in play, because we have two Jabberwock kills that were affected differently. ... ... Fifth. I'm just going to draw attention to one line here: Maybe that means nothing, that Fifth is being reassuring after showing me the insanity beneath the rabbit hole. Or maybe it means everything, because Wonko time-travel-dying C3 really doesn't affect the outcome there. Wonko's still executed by the Queen either way, Animals still lose, everyone else still loses or wins how the Cards fell. But if it had been someone else? Like Sart? Then the entire Animals faction would have won, most likely. That would certainly affect the outcome of the Cards minigame. That implies to me a few things that could be true: The Jabberwock had no incentive to accidentally change the outcome of Minigame 1 (implying either a Tea Partier, Queen, or especially Knave - dis-implying an active Animal). The Jabberwock had no idea that this would happen (implying that they weren't paying attention to the earlier Cursed By Time discussions). The Jabberwock had some idea this would happen, but not the potential wincon altering ramifications (implying... idk, an intact sense of reason). The Jabberwock wasn't in control here (implying that this was Wonko's Curse at play and this is all just a giant secondary rabbit hole). TKN is the nice mix of these. Quinn could also fit, potentially, as could whoever the Knave was (as non-Knaves unwilling to interfere with the Animals' near-win could have taken a potshot at the Knave instead of Wonko). Bah. Blackout games. Guaranteed to make Ashbringer completely lose his mind

    Actually, my hunch is that it’s either TKN (not Stick, was wrong on that), someone else Cursed by Time who’s been keeping their mouth shut, or anyone with wacky rules. It’s possible Wonko accidentally shifted an action targetting him back in time, as part of his own curse. No real way to test that out, and I haven’t seen anything like that yet, but it would mean the Jabberwock isn’t necessarily Cursed. It’s possible there’s a new player with a Curse, maybe two. TKN allegedly started with it, Wonko gained it C2, I also gained it C2 but apparently using strange Wonderlandian role-copying powers. I don’t think anyone mentioned a new Curse C3 or C4, but it’s possible. But… man, this has implications. The Known Novel
  23. Ashbringer
    One of the Jabberwock’s kills was sent back in time a cycle. But, it wasn’t both Jabberwock kills. Just one. The other happened on schedule. That could mean that something else is in play, but the only other multi-action we’ve seen was the Queen of Hearts executing 2 people at once.
  24. Ashbringer
    Judging by the fact something similar has happened to me, I’d say it’s pretty sure. Publicly Cursed individuals are me, Wonko, Stick iirc?
  25. Ashbringer
    I’d wager not the only way, especially as TJ hasn’t seemed to use that ability. But losing the Vorpal Sword is, most likely, not a good thing for the Creatures. Jabberwock having a double kill is also, quite scary… Oh. That’s not what happened exactly. Oh dear.
