Yk Araris, I’ve always wondered Where does your title come from? Does it work?

I am not familiar with the case study

Huh? I don’t get why that’s true Okay nvm I see why that’s true If Kit Kat is village, that means either Dive or Xino is elim, if it’s Xino we gotta kill him now and if it’s Dive then there’s no way I win unless Xino and Kit Kat spawn in cause Dive will vote with you I would still rather go out like this, holding onto some slim hope How have I been acting like Kit Kat isn’t village though?

The only way that works is if your teammate in question is Dive, in which case, as I mentioned, I am utterly doomed In the case that we kill you and there is a remaining elim, and Divergent helped kill you, I would not consider him the remaining elim as he could’ve just backed you up on Xino

I’d actually argue the opposite for those reasons If Xino is village, and he for some reason returns, he certainly will not vote for himself. So if the vote became 2-2 and both villagers (let’s say me and you) were voting him (which it probably won’t, I’m not too optimistic about Kit Kat’s return, I see this as a contest between you and me over Dive’s vote) he’d vote with the elims and we’d lose I’m not sure if we’re understanding each other here, but if Xino is village, we’ve only already lost if we set ourselves to killing him

By “holster the kill” I meant his Coinshot action in the Pseudogame I have to admit that in this point you are in the right. I hadn’t considered all that, and with it, yeah, the possibilities of having only three starting elims are extremely low I still wanna kill you, or Dive I just don’t wanna walk down this path so calmly And I know that if there’s a Convert, it’s between you and Dive, I think it’s you and if it’s you you wouldn’t be campaigning like this for Xino’s death I could be wrong, in which case I will greatly apologize once this is over Yes I was considering her as a starting elim here I doubt the elims would pick someone largely inactive as their Convert

Okay I'm back Pseudo-Cycle 1 Xino: Pops in before rollover to vote Coder, kill him over me (it was a 2-2 tie) Is quite weird about it tbh Kit Kat: Replies to a post from Myst with: "Very interesting!" Twinstorm: Does nothing Meta-Cycle 1 Xino: Says he did not shoot (did not), didn't tell anyone he was a Coinshot, asks for VC Kit Kat: Tries to vote me last minute but doesn't beat rollover. Doesn't put any explanation, just the name in the post. Other people voting me were TJ/Striker (so no would-be elim teammates) Twinstorm: Does nothing Pseudo-Cycle 2 Xino: Does nothing Kit Kat: When pressed about voting me, responds cryptically "You seem suspicious..." Says she thinks I know too much. Votes Verdance (interesting, considering Verdance is a meta-elim) Calls out Verdance for acting weird Lightly prods Araris Twinstorm: Does nothing Meta-Cycle 2 Xino: Does nothing Kit Kat: Votes Xino I don't know why Twinstorm: Does nothing ... Okay I don't really want to keep this up What I am gonna say: I don't think Kit Kat is evil. I like the vibes I got from her rereading these early cycles, and I also feel like that would probably be too underpowered a starting elim team anyways I don't think it's Xino. Not only because I feel like Araris is an obvious convert (and Araris isn't backing me up here) but also because he holstered his kill and though I don't know Xino that well I feel like e!him would be playing a bit more presently. So I think that, from these options, our remaining elim is TwinStorm (Divergent). HOWEVER, with certain thoughts, and this recent post I am considering the possibility of only three starting elims, which means we have only the Convert to hunt down, who is between Divergent and Araris. With this, I feel comfortable killing Araris, for I see two worlds: 1: One more starting elim left. That elim is Dive. The Convert is, then, Araris. 2: No starting elims left. The Convert is either Dive or Araris. Most likely Araris. In one case, Araris is definitely evil. In the other, Araris is probably evil. Let's kill the bear. @Divergent get in here Wait stop why am I calling for Divergent if you’re both elim I’m cooked @xinoehp512 get in here @Kit_Kat get in here

Fair Obviously, I know I'm not evil, but I'm not quite sure of a way to convince you of that, nor that I have to at this point in time ... Alright guys lock in time Let me open up another tab The suspects in question: Kit_Kat, Xinoehp512, TwinStorm The cohorts: coco.pudding, Qianweilian, Verdance I doubt I can play to convince any of you that our GMs would've balanced this game with only three starting meta-elims The wager: PseudoVillage Victory Let's begin with the pseudo-elim doc Xino: Early activity Asks who people think meta-elims bet on Dies early and says nothing else So no real info there Notably would have been a meta-elim pseudo-Coinshot who holstered his kill. Didn't someone say at some point that an elim always shoots? Food for thought ... Aaaaaand I gotta go part two coming soon @xinoehp512@Kit_Kat get in here

Presumably cause Araris was not converted then Look the convert candidates are you, me, Araris I know it’s not me You’re either lying about being confused here or you’re innocent That leaves Araris Of course, my perspective might change after I analyze a bit later, I’m just trying to look in other directions than the path that has been laid for us

Crimson Breath Agent, New Hallandren, Garrison The agent watched the constables turn, reaching down to grab another shuriken. No witnesses. In a deft motion, he flicked it into the air as a distraction, while simultaneously grabbing a third shuriken with his other hand and throwing it directly at the man’s neck. Ebonaryle, New Hallandren, Garrison Ebon whizzed down the halls of the garrison, desperately seeking a way out. He had no heart in this state to thump, but the nerves - and the exhilaration - filled him. He flew past a Crimson Breath agent, who started at his passing, but continued when Ebon did not engage. Ebon could not engage. He was on his last life. And after all this time, he knew something. The Warbreaker Ball. It wasn’t much. But it gave him an edge. He should’ve killed that agent in the cell. Ehh. The one he had just passed would deal with her. He wondered where Lux was. He found he didn’t quite care, anymore. Perses wouldn’t like that. In this moment, Ebon didn’t care about Perses, either. As he ratcheted around the final corner, entering the final passage before the exit, all Ebon cared about where those three words, repeating in his head again and again. Limel, New Hallandren, Garrison, Screaming His Head Off Questions deflected off Limel as he led the group racing down passage after passage, corner after corner. Every now and then, they would run into another cloaked figure or two, and be forced to change course. Shutikens flew over his head. No thoughts entered Limel’s head but directions. A left here, a right here… somehow, his legs kept moving, and they stayed in front of their pursuer. Luck blessed him. But luck did not last forever. The garrison core was a small maze. It was designed to look homogeneous, to confuse intruders. But Limel was sure they had begun here. They reached a fork, turned to the left. And found themselves in front of their pursuer same entrance that the first Crimson Breath agent had blasted open. Limel froze. For a second, it looked like an escape. An open door. Then, like death arriving, a robed figure stepped through the door. The hooded agent turned, inevitable, and through slits in a mask, met Limel’s gaze. He trembled. Footsteps approached from behind him. To his side, Cayansa was trying something with a stick, with a panel. What, he did not know. Limel closed his eyes. Ebonaryle, New Hallandren, Garrison Ebon turned the corner, and found himself before the entrance. A Crimson Breath agent blocked it, but he had his back turned to the glowing light that was the Fused. Ebon could slip past him, and then he was free. His exhilaration peaked. And then he froze. Across the corridor, beyond the agent, stood a man. He was young, and Ebon did not recognize him. Fear consumed his face. His lip trembled. He stood still, his eyes closed. Next to the man was Cayansa. They were poking the wall with a stick. They would die. Pain hit Ebon. This was what he had feared. He forced his attention away. He had seen friends die before. They weren’t even a friend. Just a Radiant. He had killed thousands of them. But they… had been a kind one. Ebon pushed the feeling down, and began to move slowly down the passageway, towards that escape. Light gleamed from outside. It shone through the doorway. Then he saw Starseeker. Saw Starseeker’s panicked face, saw Starseeker’s curious face peek over the lip of the crater. Saw a friend’s panicked face weep, not scream, as a Radiant stabbed him into the ground. Saw the same Radiant’s face twisted in pain, broken by another friend, who would go on to die so quickly his face would never turn to panic or fear or weeping. He saw the bloodied face of a scientist, pressing papers into his hands, telling him to deliver them. Ebon tried to push the feelings down, and fly through the opening in front of him. But something within him screamed, and before he knew it, he was reforming, he was falling through the air, instinct filled him, and his knife found a hold. Silence. The Crimson Breath agent began to lean, then collapsed at his feet, a bloodied hole in his back. Ebon looked down, then looked up, at Cayansa. At Starseeker. His face was wet with tears.

Can you try and check?

Nope Actually @Stardust anything you’d like to say about that? KitKat exists @Kit_Kat

The one that the stakes are higher now and maybe we should try and consider other logic

Okay wait wait can we pause There’s five of us left, we assume two elims, we make the wrong choice here and it’s over Return of an NK signals to me that convert is 100% active I’m gonna definitely make sure to do a better analysis before rollover, hopefully with time, but just immediate thoughts Is there any reason we have to believe that one of the OG pseudoelims was meta-elim other than logic? Cause despite the odds, I myself don’t love resting an exe merely on our predictions of what our GMs would have chosen to balance the game Yeah sorry ‘bout that Was there no mention of Star as a pseudoelim in the main threads before the end of the pseudogame? Would any player, dead or alive, like to come forward about leaking this information? (I myself will have to check whether I told Myst or not cause I don’t remember) Is there any way the meta-elims coulda find out, some role that coulda let them know Star was pseudo-elim? Also, just in case, Araris Valerian, our OG meta-elim team doesn’t seem like the most experienced and you are def the most tempting conversion target, also said some things I didn’t love, for example a while ago mentioning how elims were unlikely to NK suspected conversion targets naming himself - an actual convert would need real reason to justify why they aren’t getting NKed, especially someone like Araris, and this seems like a clean way to do it Okay just checked my PMs I actually told Myst Star wasn’t a pseudo-elim at some point by accident, I don’t remember the full circumstances, but still not what we’re looking for
