    Reiterating the thing that I said in the previous game that I'll be busy till the end of May, so expect meagre activity. I tried to read all your game-discussion-within-the-RP posts, I did. But I'm too busy to sit and go through them all in a day, so I'll be playing this game off-the-cuff. Fletcher sat in his shop with Aeo buzzing beside him, contemplating the recent events. Mainly how they'll affect his sales. He had placed his shop strategically to both increase his sales and as a hub of information so nothing could get past him. He had to hide his more... risky artefacts from inspectors after all. "How much for that?" asked a customer, nothing really shady about this person but Fletcher narrowed his eyes as he realised he was pointing to Aeo. "Not for sale," muttered Fletcher shooing him off. Seons were not only rare in the Rose Empire but the secret to whisk them off Arelon was a closely guarded piece of information. He did not get to where he was by doing his business blindly. Contrary to the popular opinion, the saying 'there's always a price for everything' was not how Fletcher worked. You needed to match the items to your customer base. Not only their tastes but also their personality. You could not sell your not-exactly-legal items to a commoner. As a result, Fletcher had extensive knowledge about not just his customers, but everyone who had come to his shop to enquire specific items. So it was not exactly surprising to him when he learned of the Svordish ambassador's death as he was one such customer. Asking about dangerous items could only get to killed. Now Fletcher had a problem. He'd told the ambassador that he'd procure the item. Was he in trouble now? Was the ambassador killed for it? He'd need to keep his ears open and eyes nonchalant. He was just a guy with a shop. No one could have guessed that he was the source of his own items. No one in this world knew he was a renowned smuggler from distant worlds. Not a fan of Szeth implying he wants to keep his voting a secret. D1 voting is an important phase and sets the stage for the rest of the game. No voting in the thread means no accountability for the votes and no reasoning at the time. Elims can get away by giving some random excuse after the fact. Matter of fact, I'd like to know why @Archer thinks secret voting mechanic is village-helping?

    Al is tossing in his broken bottle. Ash, do the right thing and gimme Autonomy :P.

    Thanks for running the game @Elandera, it was probably one of the few games I actually wanted to last till the endgame instead of crying for death. Don't mind it, this is just be being salty over the loss , but couldn't the shades counter thing killed the person submitting the kill in the night?

    smh Lil Uzi Vert is a rapper. Sign me up as Fletcher, a shady fence specialised in dealing with illegal/non-native artefacts. Infamously known Fletcher the Fetcher in those circles. Thought I'd make a reference to buying or selling an item each cycle, if that's fine with you.

    If Arbiter Wuzhi was a Poet, he'd be Lil Wuzhi Vert.
  6. |TJ|
    Yeah, that's correct. He's not the person who attacked you. Think Kas and Devo were the only ones who knew I was targeting Alv.
  7. |TJ|
    I've only cleared Alvron for N3 though, he could still be a team-mate of the N3 killer. And not to account for extraordinary circumstances like the elims having two kills during N3 (cross-bow) and you getting hit by one of the kills and me targeting an attacking Alvron with my rebound hitting e!SE!Alvron so he doesn't appear insane. He's still in my PoE for elim team.

    JNV/Alpha/Alvron/Steel/Mat - hope the elims are among these. Repeating my point again, there had to have been some effort to protect Archer D1. If Alpha is also village, then I'll be looking at Mat for the bus. If no one decided to protect Archer, might as well distance themselves from each other. Also not liking the high confidence that Mat has in v!Alpha. Either they are teammates or he has TMI. Kas is right in that I'd expect v!Mat to be more involved at this stage of the game. Who else is remaining from the N3 kill pool? JNV, Illwei and ? Anyway, we have a few paths to choose here - D1 vote or kill pool. But unless you believe Illwei is evil, there IS a killer outside the pool as JNV was blocked N4.

    Because as far as I can recall, you did not respond to his request to give it to Devo in the thread. Sorry if I missed something though. Having the feeling that everyone's a bit casual this cycle, but I just realized we still have 12 players alive. It doesn't feel that way. But still smh.
  10. |TJ|
    Again repeating that they wanted to give it to Kas, and couldn't backtrack Kas' request to give it to Devo. Lack of thread control could force elims to look for other methods of survival. It's just that I re-read Alpha's D1, and there are so many points that are just triggering elim bells for me. Separate matter, but also a tiny bit worried about VitC this cycle. If 2 of the 3 players up for elimination (Ash, Alpha, JNV) are evil, elims could VitC to kill a villager.
  11. |TJ|
    Could you provide your current reads? The detailed, the better. Edit - @Matrim's Dice, why do you prefer Ash to Alpha? Excluding the 'kill pool' reasoning.
  12. |TJ|
    Alpha, could you give any explanation for the above? I find it weird that you asked for my reasons to suspect you and then promptly ignored my reply. @TheAlpha929
  13. |TJ|
    Grrr, idk why I feel so confident of e!Alpha, sorry. Vote count at the time of Ash's vote - He could have voted on you. Could be vote dilution tactics but - As Kas said, Ash catches the elim slip by Aman. Wording could have been more strong and you could argue that everyone would be voting for Aman either but, it doesn't feel like an E/E response.
  14. |TJ|
    That's three Pallid Masks... You don't think that's iffy? Gah, that's making me want to vote for Alpha even more -.- D1 vote analysis mainly. Your vote on deTess essentially protected Archer, you provided no reasoning for your vote other than wanting your vote to count and you did not give any reason why you preferred deTess dead over Mat or Archer.
  15. |TJ|
    Apologies, was traveling to my hometown and attended a program today. Should be free from now. If there are two elims remaining and one of them is outside the PoE, it's likely that the player outside the PoE submitted the kill. Confidence in killing Kas over Devotary might hint towards elims outside the PoE. Hypothesizing a JNV-Alpha team if that's the case. Kinda want to vote Alpha over JNV, but I concede no one would be willing to go outside mech pool this cycle. @DeTess, any reason why you explained your survival by stating "protective item" instead of just naming the item? And could you reveal what that item was? Tiny bit paranoid that you are the WGG'd e!SE.
  16. |TJ|
    If Ash is village, and you believe Alpha is village, then there was no attempt made to protect Archer in D1? I find that highly unlikely... Leaning Alpha more than Ash at this point, but ugh, the counter to the point that elims would not give a Pallid Mask to a confirmed village White Fox is that it's important that they first volunteered to give it to Kas, but Kas requested it to be passed to Devo instead, and they cannot reject the request without seeming suspicious. I think plan could have been to give it to Kas hoping he'd then protect Devo and going for someone else entirely (like deTess). Edit: TLFae @Elandera
  17. |TJ|
    Because of I voted Archer D1 and D3? And D3 vote was prior to TKN opposing Archer's actions btw. smh -.-
  18. |TJ|
    I didn't feel that actually, perhaps you're misinterpreting it. Archer said Mat was annoyed. I never felt Mat was annoyed, and Mat correctly asked repeatedly where did it show that he was annoyed to Archer. My read of the post was mainly because of the "I understand *insert emoji*" part, that smiley which just exuded passive-aggressiveness :P. I have no clue, it's gut for a reason :P. But I think again, it's a meta thing. Subconsciously, I think I thought Archer hypothesising elim team size is Archer in his elim meta. Also, important to note that my vote on Archer was the second vote, you were still voting on him at the time. If you notice the post, you can see that I got what you meant in the same post as I was playing catch-up. If I was hyper-aware, I would have probably just deleted the part where I assumed you had an evil read of me. That read of Aman was at your request. I don't go to solve Aman in D1, I just cannot. >> I thought deTess' post did not actually say much at all, and you felt it was performative as well by your own admission. With Sart going for deTess for the same reasoning, notice I could have switched off Archer onto deTess. It was a small thing to look out for, I just genuinely needed more time to assess deTess as the half game I played with her, she was already sorta conf. village when I subbed in. One of the things that caught my eye during re-read because Alpha was grouped with Archer in multiple Aman posts but always behind a higher priority group. I have no idea what this whole thing means here :P. I just think of chemistry where I see 'valence'. :P. Btw, I was right about Mat's coolness smh, he knew he'd survive the execution >> Again repeating my earlier point. Way different reads of that post. He generates annoyance from that post, I saw p-aggresiveness. And yeah, confused between Fae (proof that you're Thief is not the proof that you're village), Ash and Alpha. But I'm actually leaning towards the latter two because of D1 voting.

    Trying not to brute-solve here, so not considering any action-economy stuff - Kas - Attacked N1 and N2 - Forest Green Devotary - Blocked Aman N1 - Forest Green deTess - Archer vote D1, Attacked N3 - Forest Green Mat - Archer vote D1, but he flip-flopped around him, Mat voted on Archer, Aman voted on Mat, Paranoid e!SE - Grass Green TKN - Flip-flop Archer vote D1 - Grass Green Illwei - NULL JNV - NULL Steelin - NULL Alv - Testing how VitC appears for future nefarious use? - Autumn Leaves Orange Araris - Just paranoid about Archer bus - Autumn Leaves Orange Ash - D1 protection vote - Jessica Chastain's Hair Orange Alpha - D1 protection vote, Bunch of mentions and interactions with Aman/Archer, Openness about the willingness to pass the Mask reads as village appeasement, nonchalance about the possibility of elims attempting to stop the pass as well as absence of playing IKYK shows elim TMI - Blood Red Fae - Suspicious self-vote, ending the sentence with "elims show yourselves" shows awareness that we need to catch elims which contradicts with the self-vote proving that the self-vote could be fake - Blood Red

    I actually got the Spellbook which was in Archer's possession, so it was me redirecting Alv to target himself.
  21. |TJ|
    Elandera did not say it was used up, she said I no longer had the Mask, the way it was worded made me think of Theft :P. It's... unique to witness the paranoia from Ash, haven't seen this before. In Kas' defence, he was the N1 elim kill. And the lack of elim kill on N2 and no counter claim to someone else surviving means likely hit Kas again. Slowly starting my re-read - Notice how Alpha did not ask explanation or any sort of justification from Aman, but does so with Kas when they both voted on Alpha together.
  22. |TJ|
    Feeling more weirdly confident about my 'Elandera trolling everyone by giving A-elim-team' theory. White Fox Devo roleblocked me, meaning if I had attacked Kas, he wouldn't know he was attacked.
  23. |TJ|
    It's just three votes though? And is Araris the person you claimed to, to bait an attack?
  24. |TJ|
    Archer Sorry, the optimum village mindset here should be to keep Devo and Kas alive as long as possible, which was my thinking when I sent in the order to give Pallid Mask to Kas (the funny part is I was debating between giving it to Kas or Devo, so if I had gone for the latter, Devo would have removed an item that was coming to her). I don't know why any villager would protect any one other than Kas/Devo. And I read the Alvron's post quoted by deTess but I don't think I understand what was the suspicious thing that deTess caught...
  25. |TJ|
    No, I don't have any protection from insanity. So I was targeted in non-lethal ways, I think White Fox block and Spellbook are the only options.
