Shining Silhouette

Us poor fools who thought he was being too incredibly helpful for the village May you rest in peace, Kas

Well, it's true :P. I didn't really care and if it showed well then that's whatever, right? Don't have much time today, I'll probably think things through tomorrow. Edit: Just saw this XD I actually agree with this on some level.

Hey! I thought it was funny! Who can say it doesn't need a big breakup speech? okay literally every person who's commented on it but whatever Word of wisdom if I say something that seems weird like that just take it as a joke cause that's how it's meant :P.

Honestly I don't really know what happened last cycle. Haven't completely processed it. Kas gave a nice summary (ish) thing towards EoD that you can check out. Yeah, everyone should vote! Even if you don't have a good reason, vote! Helps the village a ton! Everyone has their own playstyle, now is your time to find it!

Sad Sorry, Ash I'm still reeling from that EoD, to be honest. I'm not the best at making quick posts when I need to

I have no idea what the VC is but I'll go Ash edit: ASH XINO

"Sorry Xino, it's not you, it's me. I know I said I v read you but times are different, things aren't as they used to be. People are saying things." was meant to be partially a joke but not really "People are saying things" is directly in response to people who think that I'm e/e and how I'm okay with lynching Xino. At the point that I said that I unvoted a competitor and put him tied for the lynch. Mat commented on how I didn't actually vote Xino but I'm still reading and figuring things out ahhhh edit: didn't finish sentence lol time crunch I actually had already moved off Illwei earlier, but unvoted once more for courtesy because it wasn't in the VC See above. What's the VC??

I'm hereee sorry thought I'd be here sooner What is going on right now I'll try to respond to everyone ASAP

Sorry Xino, it's not you, it's me. I know I said I v read you but times are different, things aren't as they used to be. People are saying things. Ash

Imagine if the VC stays like this and it gets decided through RNG. I'd prefer to have a say in it, though. Illwei Ash

My mistake! Partly through making it I had formatting errors so I copied from an earlier version. Must've not changed everything Please everyone lmk if I messed up in other places

VC according to my reckoning Devo (0): Kas<1> TUN (2): Shining<1>, TUN, _Stick_<2> Cinnamon (1): Ash Silvereye (0): Mat<1> Bookwyrm (1): Wiz<1>, Kas<4> Ash (1): Bookwyrm<1>, Cinnamon, Kas<3> Wiz (1): Mat<2> Conq (0): Devo<1> Alv (0): Stick<1> Stick (1): Xino Xino (1): Conq Mat (1): Silvereye<1>, Danex Turtle (1): Wiz<2> Kas (1): Bookwyrm<2> Illwei (0): Shining<2> Danex (0): Kas<2>

Awesome! Looking forward to seeing you there!

Where the heck do these quotes come from

Y'know, I dislike sword votes. Poke votes are fine, but Danex no me gusta I feel like one of these times it's going to be E!Dan trying to blend in. Consider yourself moved to the slight elim list :ferocious+intimidating eyes: I found that post. I'm definitely not that organized So Hyena was a spiked elim now that I look at it. @_Stick_, if you have something to say, you can just say it I respectfully disagree. I believe that Elims are catchable based on slight mistakes D1, and even if we lynch villagers, Elims' posts from earlier and their reasoning for their posts give us more info to work with. If we all had that mindset, then it'd be really easy to hide in "trying not to be wrong". And also, one of these times, E!TUN could easily just pretend to not have enough evidence to vote and hide among the masses. What can I say, sometimes you just gotta start early Keep 'dem elims on their toes Hahahaha check out my previous games.I do that a lot. Speaking of which.... I have no idea why I voted Illwei last night. I wasn't feeling good about Wiz, but I just voted without much evidence. I'll take a look again later. Might change back to Illwei, but I realize that I didn't give it as much thought as I'd like to for my votes. Right now I'm looking at <Illwei, Wiz, Dan> and might as well take another look at Bookworm after Kas's post. Also not feeling too good about Ash and Archivist. A point for Ash in that it seems like he's gotten a lot of attention for what seems like a little bit. @The Aspiring Archivist, any thoughts on anything I've said? Where do you stand? It seems like I have a rather large pool but honestly I think my vil lean is still bigger in this game right now

Time for some #DubiousD1Reads™! These are subject to change at any point in time throughout the game, but here are my thoughts so far. Let's start with some slight vil leans Bookwyrm - I like his first post. It's either genuine or really self-aware already. He posted only a half hour after the game began, so the chances of elim doc explanation are pretty low. @The Bookwyrm, you should definitely handle this game your own way! Make it your own. TUN - Appears confidently flippant. I like the self-vote- I think he did a similar thing another LG a little while ago. It's possible that he's consciously altering his meta, but I feel like the tone is very V!TUN. (I don't think I've played with E!TUN, but just some thoughts based on the last couple of games). Xino - Once again, more chill and relaxed. E!Xino got voted out C1 for being a little bit obviously suspcious (though was still low on post count) and V!Xino last game was chill again and helped us win the game. Feels solid to me at the moment. JNV - The anti-poke ideas I don't necessarily agree with, but I can kind of get behind the ideas if I try hard enough. Really like the forthrightness with the previous games. I feel like they're genuinely trying to figure out the game so far, and I actually like their posts for once despite always reading them as elim. Maybe that's a warning sign, but eh Slight slight slight slight vil lean Mat - I feel like Mat's playstyle intuitively makes sense to me. In all four games I've played, we've been the same alignment, so my brain has started to see him as a good guy. One of these days he'll get me good, I'm sure, and so I'm staying vigilante (I'm keeping my eyes open, @Matrim's Dice :eyes:). But for now, he seems okay. It's D1, though, and so I don't want to get myself locked in any views of players. Cinnamon - I like this little bit from their RP. +0.5 V points Shadow - my gut puts them slightly slightly leaning vil at the moment. Not much reasoning at the moment Neutral (Different from Null in my mind) Kas - Seems to be having fun so far :P. @Kasimir, why'd you vote Ash? He's now in the lead in the VC I think and potentially up for lynch. Conq - Not much to go off of so far, but I found this quote funny Silvereye - Can't tell if this is an elim looking for an excuse to vote Mat or if V!Silvereye is suspicious of poke votes cause of JNV @Devotary of Spontaneity, any thoughts? Slight elim lean Wiz - I might be pulling a Mat by putting him on here :P, but something feels a little off for me. @The Wandering Wizard, are you intentionally changing your meta once again this game? Illwei - doesn't make sense to me, never has, but I'm sticking them in the "to be looked at later" bucket for now. The rest off y'all I have no thoughts on whatsoever at the moment. Y'all should post more :P. Reads: Slight vil: Bookwyrm, TUN, Xino, JNV Slight slight slight vil: Mat, Cinnamon, Shadow Neutral: Conq, Silvereye, Kas Slight Elim: Wiz, Illwei Might as well move my vote from TUN and park it on Illwei cause I don't want to vote Wiz rn. I'll be back again tomorrow and may check in a couple of times before rollover

I happened to check in right as the game was posted and decided to make my presence known Hey, don't make fun of Terrific Birthday Disaster! He's trying his best

Me too

You understand

Are not we all

Well, based on our wonderful rhyme (which I definitely did not adapt to make myself "the best"): "Fourth is the one who dives headfirst" So since you were the fourth vote, I'm predicting that you will dive headfirst into the action with a read (how you feel about a player) you make early on (D1 = Day 1) and just keep swimming along that vein. That's all I have right now for my reads list based on my incredibly meticulous methodology

If we think about it logically and use a little bit of ancient wisdom, we remember that: "First is the best, second is the worst Third is the one who is always cursed Fourth is the one who dives headfirst" Thus, using the order in which we posted: Me: I'm going to have a fun game TUN: Self-admitted murderer, nothing else to say about it Mat: Probably going to get voted out for absolutely no reason Archivist: The whole game will go all out on a read made D1

HE ADMITS IT guys this is our chance Edit: Some people wait to vote, but mostly depends on your style. My first game I was too nervous to vote but voting is good and we should all do it.

TUN Seems like an obvious attempt to blend in Also I see my TBD character in the writeup has been dubbed "Terrific Birthday Disaster". Might as well roll with it. *** Terrific Birthday Disaster sighed. It had been another one of those days. Those annoying juveniles on the street had called him names again, and the children he had tried to entertain had thrown rotten fruit. He'd always known being a clown would be difficult, but each day seemed to drag on for an eternity. With a bitter taste in his mouth, TBD contemplated his life choices. Maybe I should find another career, he thought. Go find a real life, like Mother always said. A respectable occupation like a soldier, or- TBD gasped as it hit him- a baker! With a start, TBD tore off his clown nose, ran to the baker's shop, and dashed inside. "Sir!" he shouted excitedly. "Let me be your apprentice!" Unfortunately for him, the room was filled with mysterious men, and the baker was nowhere in sight. "There's been an incident," a man in the front said. "Cake Culinarian is being suspected for murder. I'm afraid I have some questions for you as well..." ***
