    I mean, you still wouldn't have been able to. Ghander was protecting me; we made sure that even if there was a tie, only Gears would be lynched. If you'd gotten enough votes to lynch *just* me, it would've made things more difficult for us next turn, but we still would have been at lylo
  2. Quintessential
    Yes, this was great! Certainly fun surviving my first game lol @Ashbringer @GearsI suppose I should apologize to both of you... I was sort of the one who suggested killing you lol Also I love how it was easier for me to pocket you, Gears, *after* you knew I was an elim.
  3. Quintessential
    I'm not an elim, and Connected only works once. I have no idea what Reading is, though yes, of course I am an alignment scanner. Not really much more I can say at this point.
  4. Quintessential
    That's certainly possible; I don't know their play-style any more than I know anyone else's, being new and all. Whatever Gears' normal reasons for reaching out to new players, in this case he *was* trying to pocket me.
  5. Quintessential
    Okay, I have something important to say: I am Connected. I've been keeping quiet about it to avoid being targeted, but last turn I used my ability on Gears. I've been kind of suspicious of him since the beginning--I'd been warned about elims trying to pocket new players, and Gears PM'd me offering "strategic advice" almost as soon as D1 started... anyway, I scanned Gears and he is a Diagrammist. I'm still worried about the elims targeting me but at least by speaking up we can hopefully take out an elim as well. So, without further ado, I vote Gears.

    Okay, I'll respond to this post in order; if we lynched two villagers this turn, we would go 7-4, not 8-4, because the elims still get to kill some one. I don't personally have much of an opinion on Alv, or on anyone else, at this point in the game. As you said, I'm a new player, so I don't know anyone's play styles here, and even then my own play-style in other mafia games is generally more on the cautious side. Which is what I'm advocating for here, to be perfectly, crystal clear. I'm not opposed to finding someone else, I just don't think that voting two people out is a wise move at this point, not without further information. And I don't see how you can make an argument for voting me out because I'm *not* targeting Alv, while at the same time saying that you're finding it hard to read him despite having played with him before. Can you really blame me for not jumping on that train?

    Yeahhhh that may not be such a good idea. We've already lynched two villagers, and the elims have killed two more. Assuming there are four elims (which seems the most likely according to the calculations from D1), we have 10 villagers left. If we lynch two people this turn, there's still a good chance that one or both of them will be village; if both of them are, then we would drop from having 10 villagers to 7, and there would still be 4 elims left. They'd only have to kill three more people to win. Under the right circumstances I think a double-lynch could be a good thing, but it certainly deserves a bit more caution and forethought than "I wanna see two people die"

    Cycle ends @ 10am MST. It is currently... idk in MST 'cause that's not my time zone but right now it's ~12:30pm EST.
  9. Quintessential
    Fair enough
  10. Quintessential
    I love how I don't even make that list... guess I should post more, huh?
  11. Quintessential
    Wait but Experience was lynched. And was a villager. I mean, I suppose it's possible the other two are elims? But we definitely know XP isn't. Edit: wasn't. oof
  12. Quintessential
    Oh, wow, I'm smart *facepalm* okay, so ignore what I'd said before
  13. Quintessential
    I went back through Ashbringer's posts as well after I saw he'd been killed; the only posts he had of substance were the one where he announced his presence and the one where he explained exactly why the suicide pact wouldn't work. Neither of those seem like reasons to make him a target (since other people had *already* pointed out flaws in the suicide pact), so I would guess that Matrim's Dice is right that the elims were just killing him to avoid giving away information. Unless he had PMs with anyone, and let slip that he knew something? Edit: I phrased that poorly; I meant "let slip what his role was"

    What's that bit about the Abyss looking back from? It sounds familiar.... Edit: I sort of think I might remember that it's from Skyward... is that right?
  15. Quintessential
    But that would require the Elims to cooperate, right? If they pretended to go along until last minute then they might end up winning instead (only one would have to survive, right?)

    Those are my two main concerns with Eva, coincidentally.
  17. Quintessential
    Yeah actually come to think of it I wouldn't want Eva (not her real name) on this site with me either...
  18. Quintessential
    Wow your family is... into this. That is such a weird concept for me. My sister thinks all things nerd are dorky as heck. It's sort of frustrating, really.
  19. Quintessential
    This is an incredibly stupid question but who is Mist?
  20. Quintessential
    Hey *I* claim the title of newbie! How dare you usurp me?!?!
  21. Quintessential
    For the record, I'm going to be busy for the next couple of days so I'll be on when I can but I may not be able to respond as often as I'd like. Not that I know what I'd say anyway lol I'm a bit new at this...
  22. Quintessential
    Oh, yeah, I love the books (I mean, I'm rereading SA right now, so....); but I've loved the books for a long time, and I'm only joining the site now that I know SE exists, so I figure that should count as the main reason lol
  23. Quintessential
    Yes, I'm very much looking forward to SE; my first game will start sometime on Thursday or Friday (QF48). My favorite magic system is either that of Mistborn or the magic in the Emperor's Soul (I especially think the latter is really neat). No crazy theories so far, though I do love looking for Hoid in all the books, of course. And I don't see anything strange about your profile pic at all, Ghanderflaffle. Perfectly normal for this discussion forum, as far as I can tell.
  24. Quintessential
    Okay, so a) I don't really *make* memes, I just enjoy perusing the thread lol. So I have no idea what character I'd immortalize. And b) I think my favorite character is probably Shallan, though Kaladin comes in as a close second (and I'm definitely not partial to Shallan just because she and I both have red hair lol). And of course Hoid/Wit is intriguing as well.
  25. Quintessential
    In response to both of you, I think so far my favorite series as a whole is definitely Stormlight Archives, with my favorite being Oathbringer. I also really like one of the stories in Arcanum Unbound--The Emperor's Soul, I think it's called? I found the magic system in that one to be really interesting.
