    Question 1: Was this a short essay about why essays are useless? Are you fighting fire with fire? Question 2: What if the paper you're writing details your own findings? So while you're citing information from other sources, you're also taking information you've gathered yourself (sometimes literally, like, out in the field pointing a machine at the sky literally) and presenting your own personal conclusion, unbased in anything anyone else told you to write?

    If this is the case, then I would have lost complete faith in my ability to read people and would have to go back to square one on who the remaining elims are... For my sanity, I hope Nerdy flips Elim. EDIT: I might consider taking a closer look at Kas if we have a V!Nerdy. I've never played a game with Kas where he was elim (unless I'm forgetting something...), so I don't really have something to compare it to, but that's probably where I'd start.

    If Xino was village, then I'm very certain that Nerdy is Elim. If other evidence pushes me to vote for someone else, then I'll change it. I think TUN might be worth a look... But I'm fairly certain that Nerdy is who we should go for.

    Avi followed Il'anque up the amethyst-covered cliff. She thought she was making good progress. Suddenly, one of the crystals shifted. A strange creature emerged, revealing the purple growth of gemstone to be an almost armor-like plating; It looked kind of like a mole, if moles had razor sharp claws that let them cling to stone and had a very vicious temperament. Stars, Avi thought. I did not need this right now. @Ookla the Frustrated.

    I think I'm going with Nerdy.

    My character vanished and I've been inactive for months. I can bring him back, but...
  7. The Bookwyrm
    Okay, that was not good. I think either Nerdy or Xino is Elim, but not both of them, unless they're doing some really convoluted distancing scheme. I'm going to wait to decide which one I vote.

    Dreamscape: Sixth Archive Pathway Bookwyrm began to descend into the deep stairwell. What is it with secret locations and deep spiral starwells? Bookwyrm thought as he summoned a sphere of Nightfire for light. As he walked into the darkness with Calano and Matra, Bookwyrm found his thoughts drawn to Insa. She was powerful. More powerful than she gave herself credit for. Bookwyrm knew this; in the past, he... Bookwyrm stopped on the stairs abruptly. Why can't I remember? When she appeared in the Clinic, I recognized her. I know her. So why? Why do memories that I know exist elude me? Bookwyrm shook his head to clear it. A mystery for another time. And yet, the thoughts plagued him as he continued into the depths. @CalanoCorvus @Shadowed @InfiniteInsanity

    I'm just going to go with Fifth.
  11. The Bookwyrm
    I know I'm a little late... But I'm glad for you, Calano. You are an awesome person, and anyone here can confirm just how much you're worth. I'm glad you've been able to let this out, and I'm glad that it's helped you to feel better. If I, or anyone else, can do or say anything to help you in the future, just let us know. We're here for you, and we're happy that you're feeling better.

    "I see." Avi understood Isek's point of view, even if she didn't share it. Then again, protection from death would be nice, she thought to herself. I don't fear death. I just fear dying before I've accomplished what I want to. What I need to.

    Oh no.

    I'm coming up on 1,000 posts and don't know what to do...

      Maybe you could start another forum game to commemorate the event.

    Okay, after my re-reads, I'd be okay voting Fifth or Nerdy. Xino is a backup option, but I'd prefer to decide between those two. I'll be back later and narrow my options down to one of them.
  15. The Bookwyrm
    "I agree," Avi said. "It seems to me like Death will want to have Reapers who serve for the sake of others, rather than themselves." She stopped and looked at their path forward. "We're nearly at the third layer. It's going to get a lot harder from here..."
  16. The Bookwyrm
    Primarily those that the others are voting for. Most of you are experienced players, and I'm inclined to trust you; therefore, I'm going to be analyzing Fifth and Aman when I have more time. Most of my analyses in SE so far are based on actions in the same game, rather than on actions in past games. If Xino's behavior this game really is corresponding closely to his actions in past games where he was Elim, than I would consider voting him. But I'd rather have a little more incriminating evidence in this game alone before I vote for him. So right now the people that I need to look into are Aman and Fifth.
  17. The Bookwyrm
    I still don't understand why you're gunning for Xino so hard. Yes, he may be somewhat suspicious, but he isn't the best option solely for the fact that he's posted twice this entire game. That's mildly suspicious, but there are other people that are a lot more suspicious. Xino hasn't said/done anything incriminating. Now I just need to figure out who of those more suspicious people are the most suspicious.

    I fly past on my Loftwing and grab the sandwich as you bask in your now nonexistent victory.

    Did someone steal your username while you were an Ookla?

      You could post a thing on their profile, asking them to change their name...

    This is true. Especially time.

    "I'm not sure what these are," Bookwyrm said as he took the bag of jafhodalheritas.
  22. The Bookwyrm
    ...I'm E! Reading Nerdy. First, I don't like this: It just kind of rubs me the wrong way. Doesn't make much sense. Second, their Xino vote this cycle seems like an attempt to deflect attention; other people were voting Xino, and so Nerdy did the same. Pretty much the exact same action as last cycle; voting based on others, and an attempt to fade into the vote count without much interaction.
  23. The Bookwyrm
    Questions: First: Is it primarily human romantic relationships? Or human relationships of any kind? Second: Is this going to end up becoming an RP? Because your OP felt like a set up to a possible RP.

    I watched Dune again today because I had nothing else to do.

    Man, that movie is cool. One of the best book adaptations there is, in my opinion.

      I think my favorite tracks are Herald of the Change, Leaving Caladan, and Ripples in the Sand.

      Oh, definitely. Leaving Caladan might be the best of the soundtrack.
