    I kinda find myself confused in general by the cases presented maybe my hreading comprehension is trashed Ive been very tired recently but what exactly is the public Stick reasoning ok and the xnioehp reasoning from Stick is the specific picking of Bookwyrm in D1 but not voting Bookwyrm D2 plus general reticence and the Archer vote from Novel comes from the assumption Szeth was the night kill Ive read through everything like twice and my head hurts and Ive kind of come to the conclusion Im not voting Stick today beyond some brief paranoia founded on weak assumptions it doesnt feel amazing and the reasoning is just a bit fragile and it doesnt feel good and yeah honestly like Id like them dead at some point just cause paranoia alarm bells all that but I dont really know it feels wobbly I think Im just not that suspicious of them for whatever reason like I kinda want to be at this point itd be easier but no theres just confusion Araris is definitely off from what I think of as their playstyle but theyve said theyre sick so Im not really sure how to evaluate that and like if theyre evil its a definite shift in behavior fro what sort of lives in my brain as their standard which oh well Archer ok like Archer Ive been backreading and the thing thats getting to me just a bit is this post And if the threads get merged later and this vanishes this is the 'oh boy 15 quotes' post on like page 7 of D1 like this throws a lot of shade makes a lot of implications and doesnt really do anything with it like it tries for and like they have opinions I cant really account for that dont trail back to established things they have a bit of wobble honestly Im not being very articulate right now sorry my head hurrts Wobbly thoughts that probably arent founded in anything other than my brain at most one of Stick Alvron Elkanah are evil at most one of Archer Araris are evil a significant quantity of evils just havent been challenged or prodded in any way Chanarach for the love of the Stormfather can you kill one of the many many people were wobbling over to get us some conclusive information thanks love you Ok my head hurts Im tired Archer but like you have to realize its founded in my brain going hm at posts and not like actual logic and reasoning Im so tired bye bye goodnight Heres a quokka thats just me just very confused and wobbled

    Jen-child-Verin could feel the blood dripping from their hands. If they looked, they would see nothing. They knew this because they had looked down many times. The blood was thick, cloying. It dried on their hands. They had seen death before, of course. They had seen it far too often. It settled in their midst like an old cloak, tattered and worn and useless at keeping out the chill. But this was the first death that was their fault. They had accused Rizam-son-Azram. Yes, others had as well, but that did not lessen the burden of guilt. The blood had not come near them, had not even touched their hands, but they could feel it. It was red. It had been warm once. Ok so like I reread the game a lot right and I think I just ended up confused like everyones a blur and Im tired and its not even that late everyone feels like a blob of confusion like usually I have some irrational trusts and suspicions by now but we killed my irrational suspicion and Im just confused and I might go to sleep early honestly my brain is fuzz so heres a good night quokka sorry for low effort post today just not really feeling it at the moment just sorta fuzz

    Jev stepped out of the bar in the midst of the chaos. No comms. That meant no way to hail their crew. No way off-planet. No way off-planet with a bounty hunter on their tail. If they wanted to live through this, they couldn't do it as Jev. They had several fake IDs on them, but that wouldn't help when the hunters had a holo of their face. They needed a disguise, quick. They could rule out several options immediately. No one important would be trapped here. They'd all have personal shuttles and entourages. Same with most competent people. Most of the incompetents would already have been in the bar. The non-human disguises wouldn't hold up under prolonged scrutiny. Only a few options left now. Shoot for competence, or try to hang low. The thing is, everyone notices someone with something to hide. The trick to keeping on the down-low is to be someone so vibrantly obvious that no one thinks to look deeper. There was only one outfit that could do the trick. Tilana Pavin, an old name in the business. She had her fingers in criminal activity across the star system. They had trained under the real Pavin once, many years ago, to get her posture and accent just so. She walked like a bird of prey, sudden movements and placid stillness, and she did not blink. She'd actually gotten modded with a nictitating membrane just so she wouldn't have to blink. Jev didn't have the credits for anything so drastic, but sclera lenses looked much the same. They just had to keep any blinking slow and deliberate, a mockery instead of a necessity. Waterproof make-up to hide their freckles, a quick change of clothes, a set of sharper teeth, tied-back hair, and of course, the lenses. The persona wasn't perfect. No amount of training could hide a lack of extra joints, but it didn't have to be perfect. It just had to be good enough that no one would dare call them out. Sure, maybe the Lady Pavin would reward them handsomely for catching an imposter, but the punishment for being wrong was far worse than death. They just had to stay in character for long enough to justify Pavin leaving, then come back with a different face. Then, hopefully the bounty hunter would think Jev had gotten off-planet before the comms went down. They pulled open the door in a single movement and stepped over the counter in that step-jerk fashion. "What does it take for a lady to get a drink around here?" The words felt round and full in their mouth, smooth like whiskey and sharp like glass. They smiled, hoping the way the false teeth caught the light wasn't noticeable in the dimness of the bar. The bartender slid them an ale, and they sipped it once. Pavin checked every drink for poison first, though Jev didn't have the mods to let them actually taste anything wrong with it. They didn't actually like this type of ale, but everyone knew Tilana Pavin's preferred drink. They knocked it back, slammed the glass down, and wiped their mouth with a hand. "Now, what's this I hear about a Sith destroying key infrastructure in this fine locale?" Ok so this game is so cool I just want to preface this with that this is so cool the wincons will take contemplating but first I was thinking duel thoughts earlier and I kind of determined theyre not a great option to take for either party cause like the outcome of the duel is basically random assuming optimal RP from both sides and either the challenger ends up dead which is kinda pointless or the challenger is revealed to the other side and if its a Jedi challenging the Sith just kill them next time or the time after the protect cant be used twice and cant be used on yourself and like the Sith can just sort of pick off anyone they want to kill and if the Jedi are suspicious enough of someone to duel them surely theyd be able to make an adequate case in thread cause theres no PMs no transfer of secret information besides Knight Sith and Apprentice comms So standard ratios do not apply this game honestly the only consideration for balancing numbers how much padding the Jedi need to not get murdered immediately with also considering the more cultists around the better chance they get apprenticed and get protects and just defend their Sith masters forever and really the only reason why the Desann care about the cultists is every vote wasted getting them out is a vote that could have been used on finding and seeking a knight Honestly best opening strategy for knights might be one spam redirect the other spam apprentices once you find both Desann one person announce and also ask for every apprentice with Force Sense to defend while the other knight also defends just to make sure you could also sack the apprentices here for double covergae its just a bit more risky I think the main problem though is standard evil behavior of trying to get as many people dead as possible doesnt apply like they basically have the same goal as the Jedi just with a side of murder Id actually lowball cultist numbers cause like theyre not important or really that relevant you know but I can get why overestimating is safer Heres a poorly edited Sith quokka

    Sad to lose control of Pailiah so early on Progressions more effective late game and Illuminations pretty good but since Illweis probably not that PM unsafe they probably werent killed for the blade itself just for who they are second that shaman bit you keep an eye out we need you well actually theres the chance the evils let the blade slide to implicate whoever gets the bump up cause the decision comes right before you get the list so who knows but Pailiahs blade is great for both sides so yeah just keep it in mind and let it implicate things I guess Im tired ignore me if Im not making sense or if Im just saying obvious things Its midnight Im tired Ill have more and better thoughts tomorrow hopefully but for now Bookwyrm for the smae reasons as last time that weird Matrim vote D1 and walkabout with that and I get that how they were a frontrunner is a point against but Im always going to be circling back to them until they die so it might as well be now And now I sleep night night heres sleepy quokka thats me

    My bookwrym suspicion boils down to this line of theirs Whcih is just the wildest thing Ive heard lately like what cause its trying to discredit Matrims line of argumentation and Matrim as a whole and evidence gathering in general and like I fully acknowledge this is more based on my emotional reaction to this line over the actual likelihood that this is something someone evil owuld say and I should probably get better reads but wowza And then the way they retract is just Ok it might be me right it might just be me but Bookwyrm just feels really... performative I guess like I think its the italics honestly the italics are doing it but like calling it a 'flimsy assumption' is also getting to me its an hour and a half later and I cant help but feel the full 180 on the opinion just cause they got like foru votes off it I mean that might not be how it is but thats sure how it feels but that turnaround is just so gaaah its very much also a tonal thing I think I need to reroute my brain to get used to how they talk cause everything they say feels tonally like not words I dont really know how to describe it So yeah thats the bulk of my Bookwyrm suspicion Ok so vote ended up like so No vote manip I guess that makes sense all the vote manip blades have better other surges like Jezrien has a target scanner Kalak has a roleblock Ishar has giving stormlight and they only get two charges every three cycles also fun fact every blade has surges that dont necessarily conflict turnwise so thats nice good work there Ashbringer xinoehp voted Wizard for the tie Stick votes for Wizard last second to break the tie Elkanah and Alvron were arranging like it was three way then boom Wizard and thats a bit hm like I get they apparently trusted Bookwyrm for some reason but hm like if Bookwyrm is evil Id lean against cause its a bit too blatant but just something to keep eyes on Elkanah had mixed feelings about both Wizard and Bookwwyrm and tried going for the tie and failed Tani voted Wizard for the tie Szeth votes Wizard for... the tie? Ok Ive been looking through the votes and like the origin of the Wizard train was an early Archer vote going at them for random voting and it just persistent with no actual suspicion or justification out of wanting a tie like seriously I have no problems with ties I object to orchestrating a tie for the sake of the tie regardless of suspiciousness Wizard voted Bookwyrm for weird Insanity interactions JNV (thats me!) voted Bookwyrm for the weirddest turnaround on a read Ive ever seen Araris voted Bookwyrm for being careful Alvron voted Bookwyrm for the tie Novel voted Szeth for sheeping Kasimirs vote on Wizard Archer voted Szeth for unclear reasons either wanting the tie or for wanting the tie Matrim voted Szeth for unstated reasons Insanity votes Matrim for voting them Chantara voted Matrim for no real reason Illwei votes Alvorn for a weird reaction to Elkanah Cash votes Alvron to try and get a tie Kasimir voted Kasimir for pizza and honor The problem with this is how casual it all was like the tie attitude pervaded everything and like Bookwyrm was up there for a while and no one did anything about it and like it doesnt feel like the eilms felt thretaened at all there was no urgency to any of the vote movements except for the tie arranging I spent ages on this ack probably a million ninjas hold up let me look at those Howd you go from a whole post tunneling on Alvron to saying theyre a null read Heres a quokka Heres some RP There was blood on the stone. The stone was sacred, holy, divine, and it was stained with blood. Shin blood, blood that had labored for the benefit of society. Wasted. Blood in the fields can nurture the world. Blood on the stone just tarnishes a sacred thing.

    Hi can I have a quick fix slot for a quokka game thanks
  7. JNV
    Ok cool thanks youre the best I was wondreing where Id gotten that from so yeah shaman whoever you are Im glad you exist No Im going off the "Shin warriors" bit of the opening write up cant really be a warrior without weapons especially against invading shardbearers you know Ok this statement this statement feels a bit iffy like if you think they could be evil say why cause like everyone can be evil you could be evil I could be evil theres no real need to comment on it unless your evil measurement on Kasimir is higher than baseline and if so then why and if not then why bring it up Honestly feels similar to the statement youre reacting to like warn against but also no its fine like it just feels like a statement there to imply without formalizing a position for or against specifically might be reading too much into it oh well Ive got to go to lunch now at me if you need me bye

    Hi hi hello wow theres been a lot of quick chatter clever arragnement of blades to have all ten surges but less of the uber powerful ones nice job there Wait hango n I was rereading the rules and just is the shaman guaranteed to exist cause I kinda thought it was but like I dont see that in there so I guess that was just an assumption whoops So blade assumptions not all are guaranteed to eixst four blades will if removed lose access to a surge entirely thats Jezrien Chanarach Kalak and Ishar losing Gravitation Division Cohesion and Tension respectively of those Id be most willing to buy Chanarach not existing cause like two kills every three nights si a bit swingy but if it exists it feels just a bit more like something thatd be in village hands you know Id lean towards Jezrien existing cause Graviation seems kinda useful not entirely sure about Kalak and Ishar like losing Kalaks surges doesnt seem like a huge deal and Im not going to make any strong alignment assumptions about blade distribution cause I feel like Ashbringers the sorrt of person whod be willing to break assumptions jusut t mess with you Theres an unusually high volume of banter might be time zones might be thanksgiving break kicking in for Americans might be people being unusually peppy but yeah lots of chatter not a huge amount of substance A look at the votes so far Kasimir votes Stick as a poke Silhouette votes Matrim as probably a poke Turtle votes Matrim as A POKE VOTE Bookwyrm votes Instanity as a hello poke vote Wizard votes Chantara as a random poke vote Matrim votes Archer as a poke vote Turtle retracts Matrim Mtarim retracts Archer Bookwyrm retracts Insanity um ok I think its the way they signpost their otherwise meaningless votes but this is kinda pinging my radars Matrim votes Instanity cause Bookwyrm retracted Araris vites Alvron for... ? Kasimir votes Matrim Elkanah votes Alvron Szeth votes Novel Insanity votes Matrim Novel votes Araris for voting Alvron Not a lot here honestly And with the advent of the official shuffle squat I would just like to say Im getting village positive vibes from both kasimir and Matrim thank you very much Oop more votes coming in gosh I need to type faster Bookwyrm votes Matrim for "looking for proof in something that isnt reelevant" um yeah so Bookwyrm is pinging every radar you know what JNV votes Bookwyrm for weird reasoning unusual signposting and general suspicion hoenstly migh tbe my instnctual negative read bleeding through but this feels comfy enough Heres a quokka Herse some RP Jen-child-Verin could have been a farmer in another life. They had learned to till earth and bring crops from soil. They had learned to add value to the world. And now they were a warrior, one who subtracts. It was a bitter thing, to have fallen so far. In a perfect world, everyone could be a farmer. In a perfect world, everyone could add. But this was not a perfect world, and the world needed those who would subtract so that others would not have to. Jen did not enjoy holding weapons, but they held them regardless. They were needed. They would follow.

    Hi Ill play as Jev a low end smuggler trying to get their name out there while dodging this bounty hunter they cant seem to shake no matter how many secret identities they use hey everyone else this is an invitation to have cool interaction someone be my bounty hunter please thanks
  10. JNV
    Im just a tiny bit miffed cause I targeted Cinnamon I guess I lost the 50 50
  11. JNV
    Hi cant be on long just want to let you know I stabbrd Novel ok bye
  12. JNV
    Hi I attacked Wizard C1 and um kinda obviously didnt get around to killing anyone C2 I guess my character fell asleep in the sun or something Im just going to tentatively ignore the people who survived mroe than one attack to focus my firepower elsewhere so by the looks of it those people are Wizard Bookwyrm Devotary so yeah Im not killing you this time around congrats Oop ninjad lets see Wow attacking a sleeping duellist foul play I cry fowl play
  13. JNV
    Hi cant be on long but like is there value in the vote when the dummies cant have marked duellists yet and the only people who could die is a dummy and also like isnt fewer people throwing around attacks better for us like more attackers means more dummies dead means the duellists have less targets and the dummies have less numbers so the only people who should really want and care about the vote are dummies who want to live and I mean I guess thats the justification for the others to use it counter the dummy protection movement but the vote isnt good for duellists as far as I can tell especially without self voting cause its not really a faction game is it its more of a free for all against a faction plus like the mark is forever the survival thing is one cycle ok got to go bye
  14. JNV
    Ill play as Jen-child-Verin um might have flickery activity cause you know but I dont think Ill run into real trouble
  15. JNV
    This is probbaly a terrible decision considering inherent difficulties in getting on but Ill sign up Jeleni a duellist who is definitely not made of Awakened wood
  16. JNV
    I guess I wasnt avenged but since you died in the attempt Ill consider that enough to satisfy the pact youre the best Kasimir This was fun a bit less stressful after I died but still fun and my one real regret is not passing the silver dust while we were voting out Bookwyrm cause that would have been I mean not like gamechanging but at least a little helpful Thaks for running this Matrim it was nice the hcaotic sway of possible outcomes was interesting
  17. JNV
    Were at 5 1 so honestly I might be ok with this just be ready to re eval quick like where are you even going to go if everyone else is a strong village read rolewise weve got dust youve climed nothing fenweed but no doses used knife a tent and me but Im dying I probably should have passed the dust last cycle I kinda forgot that was a possibility so odds are were getting a violation next time and the only real way to buy an extra cycle is if xinoehp coems in clutch so yeah youve got one chance after I die good luck with that actually wait @Matrim's Dice if everyone dies does everyone win In my head its between Turtle and Wizard out of process of elimination but the thing thats bugging me is youre absolutely right about how them teamed with Bookwyrm doesnt make much sense but I think Turtle makes mroe sense cause your read on them is like entirely based on things theyve said not what theyve done and I have no thoughts in my head for reasons why I should trust them like with Wizard it was kinda 'hmm but I want to trust them' and yeah this isnt the best method for solving problems and yeah this vote is for vanity more than anything else but itd be nice to have a game where I vote every cycle so yeah Goodbye
  18. JNV
    I feel like you of all people should know Id never kill you but ok Honestly youre right aabout the information thing but the problem is you asked me after Archer flipped which really colors my view of the past I have severe problems with objectivity of my own thoughts and trying to excuse away my own inaction Of course its not conisstent with LG90 Wizard but its plausibly similar enough it could be reactionary honestly I dont know I pretend to be more confident than I am and considering how unconfient I come across in my posts thats saying something like I just dont know ok Im at the point where instead of having irrationa lsuspicions Im just staring at my screen and trying to figure out who I wouldnt be mad at myself for voting out and losing because of it I mean not really cause like Im voting Bookwyrm but thats more of a head in hands wobbly thinking bit than actual anything Im tired I dont really know anything Wizard silver dust isnt an action Ill be honest I know I dont really have a way to prove you wrong I dug this grave myself I dont have any merits or proof in my favor I dont have a real way to convince you of anything and honestly Im at the point in the game where I would normally put a lot less effort into providing any defense of my actions and just let it go except its practically lylo so yeah you get midnight oil JNV logic theres absolutely no reason wy you should trust me and the only reason Im trying is cause its actually important strangely enough but listen if you cnat find me village then go with yoru extensive list of reasons why Im evil and dont let me psych you out of it honestly Im too tired to be trying to debate right now Ill stick around for like another half hour but Im going to sleep early tonight so yeah
  19. JNV
    Im dropping RP cause Im a bit too fussed to get into the style and cause Im going to die so it doesnt really matter but like Im not inactive people keep saying my inactivity is suspicious but Ive always posted at like one post every 24 hours its just less obvious in games with longer cycles its not really a big deal but Im getting kinda irrationally fussed at it like one person said it then everyone was saying it and as far as I can tell thats like the only thing going for me and if theres other reasons do tell but yeah Im just a bit wobbled is it a recent thing like last game people were saying Id forgotten about the game cause I hadnt gotten on in a while like my low activity elvels are nothing new this is just me and gaaaaaah like its not a big deal it shoudlnt be a big deal but Im just fussed over it just very very fussed Im kinda assuming I die today I get it really I do I havent done anything with merit apparently when I die look at the people who should know my standard activity levels and perpetuate the myth anyway I have opinions theyre probably wrong but Im committing myself to trusting Kasimir cause I dont think theres a world where I ever dont and cause I think evil them would realize Im a villager evils want at endgame cause Im really bad at it and just sort of marinate me cause like the only reason people have gone for me is cause they said it first as far as I can tell Im also committing to village Ashbringer I dont think the knife is really viable in elim hands plus 50 percent odds at death as evil is a bit much and Im tentatively committing myself to village xinoehp cause of the Kasimir protect now given these assumptions now given these assumptions Ive narrowed my evil pool to Bookwyrm Turtle Wizard Wizard I dont really like how theyve just been sheeping Kasimir like crazy like every vote post and opniinon is just a Kasimir opinion and like I dont really remember the way they play but like I feel like they usually have a bit more original thought Bookwyrm I dont like their vote remove vote on Silhoeutte it just feels funny it feels like vanity more than and like their reads list is just nothing its just entirely nothing dressed up with lots of wrods and a weird ocnclusion Turtle well honestly I feel like my problem with Turtle is about them tonally not about actually reading them as evil they just dont play and communicate like Id expect and thats more of a me problem like Im sure they dont intend all of their statements to read like sarcasm so Im pretty sure thats just my brain being wobbly but like I have no reason to trust them But the evils dont exist in isolation and theres at least one teammate so lets look at connections any connections at all Wizards first reads list has Bookwyrm in the highest tier and Turtle in the lowest but weirdly enough the reads list after has Bookwyrm in the lowest tier and Turtle in the middle but like italicized middle which apparently means could go up or down which really means they have no read on Turtle and this cycle they notably show a willingness to vote Bookwyrm that makes me a little hesitant to think theyre teamed cause like if Bookwyrm dies and the village mows thorugh the lower tiers Wizards not the first on the chopping block but theyre pretty early on in the line and if I get voted then Bookwyrm gets voted next kind of out of hand and same thing happens so yeah oh and by the way Wizard I do appreciate the memes Bookwyrm joke votes Wizard first and also like follows stylistically which feels organic in the most recent reads post they say Wizards kinda meh and Turtle like apparently theyve been voting with xinoeph but like heres the thing would evils really vote together when their lives arent on the line but yeah Im going to say Bookwyrm and Wizard mght not be teamed in a 2 evil world land but like where are the teammates if they exist like based on posts alone Id buy a Wizard Turtle team more easily than Bookwyrm Turtle cause I dont know if the evils would toss their votes on the same person twice in a row when that person is good but also like I think of Bookwyrm as more evil than Wizard and Im not entirely sure why like gaaaah I just dont know I kinda want to say more but also I got like three hours of sleep last night Im tired Im just going to vote Bookwyrm and be done with it I hope my reasons make sense also in the spirit of claiming and stuff I have silver dust so yeah no action accountability here sorry Ill be on for a bit but like do not expect brain poewr my brain is mush but Id be fine if people want to go for Wizard Im so tired please someone talk to me about life thinking is hard

    Jal sat a little ways back from the fire and thought about things. Everyone had shown up and given a few opinions yesterday, so the deaths were no accident. No one was tripping over a rock and smashing their face in here. No, just accusations tossed around the fire and blood in the air. For expeditioners, these people sure seemed inexperienced in killing without bloodshed. The early names tossed around the fire were just banter and comedy, more of a game than actual accusations. Bit of a dangerous game, but nothing too strange. Things started heating up with that Keen fellow's side-eye of Gale, saying that death-seeking for vanity's sake was useless and blatantly counter to the goals of the expedition. Got him so riled up he broke his vow of terseness. That accusation was strong as anything, and quite a bit better than theirs, to be honest. It was the accusations after that raised eyebrows. That Jeffrey lad just followed Keen without thought or elaboration. Not exactly the most well-founded accusation, no matter how pretty the language used to deliver it. Same with that Wylir. Just agreeing, following like sheep. The only thing more dangerous than someone with power is someone with power and sheep following behind. Gale came back with recriminations against the accusation. Not its contents or its reasoning, but its timing. Apparently, you've got to let nonsense simmer a little, let it contaminate the broth. Dubious, but then again, Gale was dead now, so it wasn't like they could pull any more of this out of their hat. Next was a vote from... Jal didn't remember their name. A fella in a shiny hat. Apparently, Wylir's joke accusation for Jeffrey, who'd been asking for death in what Jal assumed was a joke, had not gone over well. The shiny fella's immediate switch to Old Ben just after someone asking why they weren't on Ben was a bit strange. No justification, no reasoning, just action and reaction. After that, that Mat Rims fellow mentioned Jeffrey for doing something that someone else had also done. No justification for why they preferred the one over the other. If Jal hadn't been asleep while Mat Rims said this, they might have held to their first accusation anyway. Keen asked a good question. Why did Jal accuse Mat Rims right before dropping off the map? Well, they knew Mat Rims's sort. They'd faced many such people. They knew, deep in their heart, that no matter what fancy justifications they threw out there, they'd end up on Mat Rims sooner or later. Mat Rims or that Old Ben. Might as well get the going out of the way before the fire gets hot. From what other people were saying, the end of yesterday was a bit... hectic. Accusations were flying like mosquitoes, people changing their minds on a dime. Entire coalitions fluctuated between people, and somehow, the vote ended up against that poor Mat Rims. Jal wasn't exactly torn up about it, but they were a little annoyed that all the accusations seemed to be products of the heat of the moment rather than actual thought. Every single accusation against Mat Rims was meaningless noise, especially theirs. It wasn't the first time they'd gotten a man killed in absentia, and it probably wouldn't be the last. Gale and Mat Rims were exonerated by the highest authority in the land. Of the living, Jal felt good about Keen. Then again, they always felt good about people who talked like every word was a knife balanced on the edge of a philosophical conundrum. They also felt good about that fella with the memory issues. Took a lot of courage to fess up to intentionally murking folk in the night, and the rest of their behavior seemed pretty clean. The rest... Jeffrey seemed attentive and focused, but Jal wouldn't sleep in the same tent as them, if you catch their meaning. Old Ben was the sort to talk a lot and not say much. It was hard to get a read on them. Wylir was a little better, but the way they kept walking back all their accusations rubbed Jal the wrong way. The shiny fellow... there wasn't much against them, but there wasn't much for them either. Same with Onyx. Jal wasn't so good at deciphering people from their words, but they'd ended up a bit convinced anyway. There was always the risk of it being more confirmation bias than actual reason, but that fella in the shiny hat [Silhouette] was a a bit tonally strange and had weird accusations with very little foundation. A case could be made for Old Ben, but Jal felt most confident in the shiny fella.

    This was fun but you know what was more fun going into the dead doc to find out the legion of ghosts was convinced you were evil and built their whole case around a quokka thats really fun also yeah Kasimir I admire your verbosity butalso like a tiny bit of fear how do you have the words like I have a wobbly mess of words and I cant come close

    [OOC: Now Im worried my pregame decision to play in RP style for as long as I could manage was the wrong choice considering the style of the thread] Jal found a table in the back of the inn and sipped at their drink. It was becoming a habit to come to the inn at the end of the day, grab a drink, and hunker down. It was a place that everyone went to, the beating heart of the town, and all sorts went there. It was a good place to hear the sort of secrets people would kill and die for. It was a good place to keep your back to the wall. People were a little less willing to throw punches here, but with enough alcohol, even the most shade-fearing man could get riled up. There wasn’t enough silver in the world to keep out shades who’d sensed blood in the air. You just had to keep dust on you and hope you weren’t the unlucky sod who’d been stupid enough to make someone bleed. Violence was trickier when blood was off the table, but people still found a way. As long as the blood did not touch the air, you were safe. Jal knew this all too well. They had seen so much violence over the years, partaken in it too. But those days were behind them. Now, they kept peace in subtler ways. Silver for shades, secrets for humans. It’s a matter of pressure. Hit just the right spot with just the right amount of force, and anyone will buckle. For the tricker people, there were always caltrops. They went from waystop to waystop, cleaned up or cleared out the malcontents, and carried on. Vinnie was one of the lesser malcontents, bold and a bit of a liar. Nothing a good pressure point wouldn’t take care of. They just had to find the right point. So they’d signed up for an expedition. Easily survivable for them, and they’d get some good intel on the way. As long as everyone followed the Simple Rules, they’d be in and out in a few days. But of course, depending on the competence of the other was an exercise in futility. In fact, the incompetence bordered on… sabotage. Huh. That made a lot more sense than the complete and utter incompetence of some of the group. And it seemed like the rest of the group had come to the same conclusion. Accusations were flying through the air. Might as well add their voice to the fire. “Honestly, all of you seem like decent folk, but that Mat Rims [Novel] is a bit off. Mentioning collusion like that?” [OOC: Trying to come up with a good RP reason for why the vote was happening was a bit hard like the evils are shades are we just pretending the shades can pretend to be people now like whats up with that so Im just going with working with the shades as my excuse youre welcome to countermand that but genuinely could not think of anything and also the vote is more of a ‘dont want to die by the vote filter’ vote than anything series Ill hoepfully find something more genuine later]

    So what happens if like theres one person left in the game and that persons a villager but a future regeneration of theris is evil like is that just impossible for the village to win or what I mean this is an edge case Oh I had a thought if one lord burns through regenerations faster could you have two doctors or two masters and all of that running around at once Yeah this music is great thanks Also for the questions you cna have a two step process 'what is your certainty concerning the exact identities of all members of the Renegades' then once you hit perfect certainty you ask 'what arre the player names of every regeneration both past and future of the members of the Renegades' might take you a while but yeah maybe yes no is a better option here

    Does this mean the dead characters can share anything they want with the future characters and all the theorizing bit will still get to have impact on the game cause thats nice Is this in a given cycle or overall like if theres no Renegades in a round but theres future regenerations of Renegades waiting do the People of Gallifrey win Also is that x in the regenerations fixed for everyone or variable by the lord Maybe you could make the role the same possibly but the alignment different except for the Doctor and the Master who um actually this doesnt work so well but I do like the fluctuating alignment bit thats very nice alternatively you could make the Archivist able to see the roles too Also the mood music is 'video unavailable' so what music was the mood music supposed to be Also yay Doctor Who its one of my favorite TV shows even though I havent watched any of the old show and yessss the War Doctor one of my absolute favourite guys of all time
