Aspren

Not much to say here other than that I agree with Wilson. Bela. 

The outcome of the mayorial elections seems to be fixed, so my vote won't help much: Newan

@Aspren, while I can understand the urge for the regular villager to band together, that would be giving the DF/Fain a huge amount of information. Knowing who the regular villagers are narrows down the list of people with roles and the regular villagers are the ones Fain is most likely to go after since they are the lowest risk of being identified after being corrupted.

Good point, though that's just as much a reason to do this as it is a deterrent. At this stage in the game the difference in ease of identification is negligible exactly because none of us knows each other's roles. 

You'd essentially be gathering all his prime targets together. If the villagers do decide to go through with this, please do not make a large pm group with all of you in it because I guarantee at least one DF or Fain will be among them.

I agree. That's the last thing I would ever do.

EDIT: I keep on forgetting to put it in blue.

I want to request that all plain villagers contact me either through a PM or by replying to me here (though I think a PM would probably be best). I'm hoping that that we'll be able to coordinate ourselves rather than have it become a game controlled by the few people with information and power roles. I obviously can't stop someone from pretending to be a normal villager, but at-least there are means of counteracting that. 

What, do you think, is the likelihood that either Witless or Weas is a Darkfriend? Surely the Darkfriends would rather not want to draw attention by entering the mayorial election in the first place. Yet if they did then they'd do whatever they could to get their candidate elected. I don't see how else there could be so many votes for a Mayor this early on in the game.

I wouldn't mind being Mayor if there is no-one else that wants to offer to take the position. I think it'd be better if we got this over with sooner rather than later. 

And so, I vote for myself, Sprell, as mayor. 

If you're still accepting sign-ups:

Indeed I am Sprell Hanaar, the village carpenter. It is said that I know how to make sturdy table, If you know what I mean. Indeed it seems the village will be in need of my tables very soon. Especially so considering that there are probably some in the village that have been affected by the lis-- err the Dark One. 

Indeed it could be said that only I, among all those in the village, am truly experienced in fighting the forces of instability and chaos. Why I fight the dark forces on a daily basis. Could you even imagine what would happen if people everywhere suddenly found their chairs to be wonky and their tables to be unlevel? Utter chaos, that's what. Indeed you could say that only brave souls, like myself, are what keeps Dark One's forces at bay.

My task was to make Awes pause

But me being a novice made it a difficult thing to cause

I was nearly un-armed

Only through shear luck unharmed

So I'll not be accepting any more dangerous chores

Admittedly the last word didn't rhyme perfectly.

Well, I missed quite a bit. Anyway, I got an item to use tonight. If you know what I should do with it, contact me. 

The argument of going for him when he has no items, after stating he had no items 2 days ago (didn't know we were going to verify) as the reason he is GB seems a little bit of a stretch.

I don't think I said publically that I have no items. But yes, I don't have any items or a role.

In any case, I'm going to vote for a change. Awes.

That's about seven votes for Grellin. With little or no resistance. I doubt that Grellin is a GB.

I thought Jain declared Jost to be his heir?

Accuse Sprenil again. His actions have been somewhat erratic throughout the game, and his absence today doesn't help matters.

My actions have been consistently erratic, thank you very much.

Apologies for being absent. I've been quit busy this week. I could have posted earlier on, a few hours after the write up was posted, but obviously decided against it.

While I wonder why there are so many who voted for me and then retracted their votes when I hadn't even responded, I am most suspicious of those who expressed suspicion of me and yet gave little reason as to why they decided not to vote for me, or at all. This is, in my opinion, exactly how a GB would play. Rather than doing the voting themselves, they prefer to have others do the voting, so as to distance themselves when the lynchee inevitably proves to be innocent.

EDIT: And I'll be voting for Tion, for multiple reasons which I have that are many in number and not singular. Even though, ,as Fnorf said, it's too late for Tion to declare a duel.

I'm not too sure that I should defend myself. yet.

I wonder what the rope trailing behind the Ghostblood is all about. An allusion to the previous game? In any case, we now can be fairly sure that the GB don't have a Grandbow. The possibility that they knew exactly what item their target had is unlikely.

It would be a good idea for anyone who has a Painrail to consider protecting the Shardbearer, if they know who that person is. If you do decide to protect them or not, obviously it may be a good idea to avoid announcing which actions you intend to take.

To whoever has the Shardplate: If you are in contact with a Spanreed holder and their PM group you could consider the fact that the GB likely didn't know what item you had as evidence that none of the people in your PM group are GB (but that's only if you are in a Spanreed holder's PM group and did tell them that you have Shardplate). 

I believe Tion mentioned something about how it would (or rather should) be my turn next if Tors wasn't a GB. While I'd hardly call that rational thinking, that is having someone who never expressed any suspicion of the lynchee taking the blame for them being lynched, I hardly have any right to be questioning the rationality of others, considering my actions. And in fact, I still agree.  While I'm a bit peeved that he sprang my trap early when he accused Tors, It served its purpose. And being that I didn't vote, I don't have any right to criticize other's and where they placed their votes. 

The proceedings of the day hadn't gone well, and to make matters worse Sprenil was behind on his Highstorm calculations. And then, to make matters worse, he'd lost his writing equipment. That equipment was left over from his uncle who had travelled the span of Roshar, and brought home that writing kit just for Sprenil. It seems he'd have to resort to actually asking someone to lend him a quill or something else to write with, in the mean time. 

Tion nodded. "Very well, I will honor your wishes, Stormwarden Sprenil. Please be sure to not die too quickly or you'll ruin all the fun."

"Oh, sure. Of-course yes." Sprenil nodded eagerly  "Though, I just want to point out that I'm not exactly a Stormwarden just yet. My studies were interrupted before I became an actual Stormwarden. So I'm more of a Stormwarden in training, or rather, if you'd prefer, a Stormwarden neophyte. Or maybe a novice Stormwarden, yeah that sounds nice...    ".

Again it took a while for Sprenil to realize what he was doing. Luckily for him it didn't seem like Tion, or anyone for that matter, was listening by that point.

Anyone know where I can go to buy a book on lobotomies?

In an attempt to assuage anyone's suspicion as to my sanity (that is, confirm my lack thereof), and in what is arguably the most stupid and possibly brilliant (I'm seriously hoping that it is the latter) move ever made in an elimination game (though I suppose there have been worse), I ask that I be voted for.

That right, I'm asking you to vote for me. As in, put my name in blood-coloured letters with the expectation that a sufficient number of the said red-ed names-of-mine will result in my permanent departure from the land of the living.

I'll repeat that, vote for me.

Now that that's over, I can honesty say that that was obviously just an attempt to put so much attention and suspicion on myself as to remove suspicion of myself (or at-least that's what I think I had in mind). Mainly because only the -- THE most insane-(brave) and simultaneously stupid Ghostblood would go so far as to ask for themself to be lynched (though I suppose the aspect of stupidity is universal among self-nominated-lynchees ). Meanwhile it would only take a less-insane normal player/regular villager/noble who has nothing much to lose to risk doing such a thing (though you could justifiably say that I'm just plain insane).

Note to self: I should have chosen a better character to roleplay. How do I explain a coddled lighteye and Stormwarden in training suddenly possessing the fearlessness to stand up and shout at a bunch of people who are ready to start a civil war, and just looking for a reason to kill each other.

The assembly had fallen dead silent. Had that boy really just asked all of them to kill him?

Meanwhile, Sprenil was standing there still, at the front of the assembly with his mouth open, trying to figure out what exactly he had just done. He knew two things though. One, he really needed to burn a prayer or two if he could and two, assuming he survived all this, he really needed to find a book on how to lobotomize oneself.

The king murdered? That's bad, I suppose. He wasn't a particularly good king, not that bad a one either. More of a puppet-king, if some were to be believed. This is all rather bothersome. Oh,well, guess I have at-least enough time to finish reading my glyph-book before everything goes Stormward.

A little less than two days left to sign up!

Also, you guys might want to RP a place to meet. There isn't a pub or city square established like there was in other games.

I'd say somewhere in the Merchant camp if no-one else has any better ideas. Though being that we're all supposed to be lighteyes I guess the palace is also an option, We'd just have to wonder what a Lighteyed Dirt salesman and a tenth dahn citizen are doing in there though (no-offense). Actually that would probably make it more interesting. So I say somewhere in the palace, maybe a hall.

If there are going to be spoilers of WoR then I'm going to have to leave this game. 

A faint tune seemed to sound from outside that morning. Whether it was the wind whether there was someone out there whistling was hard to discern. Nevertheless the cheery sound seemed oddly familiar.

I'm Spren, short for Sprenil. I was studying to become a Stormwarden before my family had me sent to the warcamps as a ward to Highprince Hatham. 

I was in contact with Joe during the first cycle. He then got voted out.

In the second cycle I contacted both Aonar and Alvron. Aonar was then also voted out.

In the third cycle Luckat contacted me.

I'd welcome additional information gathering roles for the most part, but I think this quick game did well with having only two roles. I definitely think that giving more information through the write-ups would be a good idea. The Tineye role from the previous games could help with that, without making the game much more complicated.

Mid-game events sound like a good idea. Especially for the quick games.

Well, that was sudden. Good game, though.

We may as well have another quick game while Game 4 finishes.
