    Correct. The Duke's name will not show up anywhere in the tally unless his business partner dictates a vote for him (Or if he got hit by a prince/ss, I suppose).

    EDIT: Accidental double post. (Note to Kipper: Editing to delete a double post is also okay, as long as the info is still present in the first post) Also, I'll make sure I have Tulir change the most recent Player List to reflect that Emerald is controlling Duke Pifferdan now.

    There is nothing wrong with editing posts, as long as you're not using it for shenanigans (ie: stuff like posting info for the people who are online at the time to see and then deleting the info after they have read it). If you have any specific questions about the legality of a post-edit, please PM Tulir and me AND Gammafiend. ... Just saw Haelbarde's reply. His guidelines are approved. An example is in order, I think. Day 1: Duke Telrii uses his power to force Sarene to vote for King Iadon. Day 2: Duke Telrii casts a vote in thread for Hrathen. If Sarene does not direct a vote for Telrii, then he will show up as having not voted. Hrathen will not have an additional vote added to him, and Telrii's name will not appear as having voted for Hrathen. If Sarene DOES dictate a vote for Telrii, say to vote for Shuden, Telrii's name and vote will both show up next to Shuden's name in the vote tally (Side note: Basically, the same thing as would happen if a KeeperOTST cast a vote for one player in the thread and used his secret vote to vote for a different player) Does that clarify things? Also, GM ANNOUNCEMENT!!! Please welcome Emerald101 to the game as our first Pinch Hitter! He will be taking over for Lord Pifferdoo, whose real life commitments are preventing him from keeping up with the game. Emerald has been given all the info that Pifferdoo was privy to.

    The day is now closed. On my cell phone right now, and IIRC Tulir is finishing up some family stuff, but we will have writeups finished and posted in the next hour or so.

    to be perfectly clear, lynching happens before gifting.
  6. Herowannabe
    gifting happens after kills, and before the Shaod (on night phases).
  7. Herowannabe
    yes and yes
  8. Herowannabe
    Thanks. The purple looked red-ish against the blue text.
  9. Herowannabe
    @Kasimir: unclear vote is unclear. Your last post says you are casting a vote for 2 different players, both of whose names are highlighted different shades of red. Please clarify your post or neither vote will be counted.
  10. Herowannabe
    It will be very much so made publicly known when a pinch-hitter steps in for another player. However, at this time, I can confirm that nobody has been inactive for the past 2 cycles. Activity can consist of posting in the thread and/or responding to PMs.

    Day 3: Die Another Day All throughout the palace, people did their best to sleep. Some tossed and turned, restless from the terrible events of the past few days. Others snored soundly. And some found that they couldn’t sleep at all. Others still, didn’t even try. They gathered in an unused room on a floor far below the King’s court. Each of the figures was cloaked in a black robe, save for one- their captive, a young serving maid, was bound and gagged and weeping through her gag. Making no delay, the robed figures dragged their captive onto the altar, and tied her down. They formed a circle around the altar and began chanting. The cultist leading the group took out a wickedly curved dagger, and drew it across the woman’s shoulder. She let out a muffled cry, but the wound wasn’t deep. The lead touched one finger to the blood, and used it to begin drawing symbols and patterns on the altar. They were ancient Jeskeri symbols, used to indicate the target of their ritual. Last night they had used more mundane means to kill their target victim- a knife to the heart. Tonight they had resorted to Jeskeri rituals. Both were risky, but for different reasons. When the time was right, the lead cultist positioned the dagger over the maid’s heart, slowly pressing down… and found something resisting the dagger. The cultist pressed harder. Something pressed back. Their victim was shielded somehow. The robed figures glanced at each other warily. The timing of the ritual had to be precise, and their window of opportunity would soon pass. The lead cultist leaned on the dagger, driving down with more force. Beads of sweat began beading on the cultist’s forehead. The cultist drove down harder, grunting with exertion. Something seemed to snap, and the dagger drove down through the woman’s heart and into the wood of the altar below. Whatever had been shielding their victim had been shattered, but the ritual had been ruined in the process. They would not be able to take their victim’s life this night. Elsewhere, another figure knelt on the floor, panting as sweat dripped from their forehead. Whatever force had been attacking the figure had finally abated, thanks to Domi’s great mercy. The figure slowly unclenched their fist, looking down at it. The Korathi pendant that had been there was shattered into pieces, the edges blackened, as if burned. Someone was attacked by the cultists, but was saved by a Korathi Pendant! Nobody was taken by the Shaod! Day 3 begins! ***Despite 17th Shard being out of commission for the past 12+ hours, The phase will end at the usual time, 9:00PM MDT on Sunday, May 31st. Updated Player List

    Yay! We're back! Due to the extended Night phase I'm NOT going to be giving anyone a time extension. The Day 3 phase will be a little shortened, but that's alright. It seems like many players wasted no time discussing and accusing during the night, so a full 48+ hours is probably not needed. The Writeup is written and will be posted in a few minutes, once I go through the PMs and make sure all actions were accounted for. If anyone has any last minute actions or PMs to send, get them in now! EDIT: And, your grace period is up! Night 2 is closed! Day 3 post imminent!
  13. Herowannabe
    Not at all. I'll send you a PM to discuss it.
  14. Herowannabe
    The gifting of items happens AFTER player deaths, so if either player dies the transaction is canceled. However, with Seons, you ARE able to gift your Seon to someone and name them as your heir at the same time, ensuring that it will reach that person even if you die.
  15. Herowannabe
    Woah! How did that happen??? Tulir? Do you have some secret grudge against Winter Cloud that you haven't told me about?
  16. Herowannabe
    Night one is now closed! Writeup coming shortly!
  17. Herowannabe
    Just as a reminder, a little over 2 hours until rollover time. Also, while I'm at it, I have a few rule clarifications I've been meaning to post. However, the main thread has been locked so I haven't been able to edit the rules clarifications post. Seon gifts A player may have multiple seons (or any item for that matter), if he inherits them or they are given to him. Their effects are cumulative, meaning that the player could open up more than one PM with other players during each phase. If a Seon is given to a player who is already an Elantrian, the Seon immediately becomes corrupted and does not work. Order of night activities As a general rule of thumb, here are the orders of night activities: 1. Night votes (the Elantris exploration vote) 2. Night actions (Korathi Priest, Jindo Warrior, Elantrian Veteran, Gyorn/Odiv, poison vials, etc) 3. Cultist kill, along with other deaths it may trigger (lovers, pirate, etc). 4. Gifting/inheriting of items 5. The Shaod.

    My rep title feels oddly appropriate...
  19. Herowannabe
    Sorry everyone, I take a good deal of the blame. I had RL stuff pop up (My sister got into town RIGHT at 9:00 and a 5-minute visit turned into 1 hour) and I was AFK for a big chunk of town, leaving Tulir to flounder about in the sea of last minute changes all on his own. I have reviewed the vote tally that Tulir posted. It was 99% correct (aside from the actual lynch victim, of course). Here is the official, double checked vote tally: Vote Count: Locke: 1 (Mail) Mainem: 4 (Orlock, Araris, Spencer12347) General Hobbes: 1 (Claincy) Arfear Quinn: 1 (Kas) Duke Pifferdan: 1 (Meta) Fernarnia: 6 (Wilson, Dow, Wonko, Mckeede, phattamer) Won LenReen: 1 (twelthroottwo) Still figuring out how to handle this. Tulir, if/when you see this, please PM me. EDIT: This makes the most sense to me, and is probably what will happen.
  20. Herowannabe
    What Tulir said. As a reminder, Seon PMs are now closed for the day too. Once the write up is posted those of you with seons may begin your new PMs
  21. Herowannabe
    About 3 hours and 20 minutes
  22. Herowannabe
    Quick GM comment: I've been meaning to post this in the clarifications, but item transfers happen after kills, so you can't give an item away as your last act. You have to do it in advance. (I don't THINK I have ruled anything to the contrary before this, but if I have, this supersedes it.)
  23. Herowannabe
    I probably reached that, or close to it, in my QF6 Legion game, since virtually the whole game was done via PMs.
  24. Herowannabe
    Less than 24 hours since the game began. Number of 17th Shard PM notifications in my email inbox? 116. the joys of GMing.
  25. Herowannabe
    Yes. Thats' why signups ended a day before the game began, so that I could notify the Dula and give him/her time to choose the lovers. The lovers were notified at the same time they received their role PMs.
