A Joe in the Bush

I am happy to co-GM for anyone who is afraid to run a game by themself.

I don't see how 'hanged' is any different than lynched?

I vote for Exe. (Short for execute.) "They got Exe'd, we need to Exe them. That was a Misexe. We're at Exlo." Also, what is 'mylo'? Is that supposed to be 'Misslynch or lose?' Never seen that used, but we could use 'Mxlo.'

I'm voting for the Paradoxical Archer @Ookla the Paradoxical It's both a gut feeling and some inconsistencies in their position. In this post, they advocate for a wide spread of votes, to force lots of people to defend themselves. While that is a good strategy, it does also ensure that there will be plenty of ways for the elims to dodge the lynch. Especially as there is no way to defend one's self this early on. Later on they mention that everyone having one vote is ideal, as pure randomness is the fairest way to do a lynch. This is the post that really made my gut hurt though: (It won't let me quote for some reason. IDK) It feels like he's covering for Illwei, by imagining a plan she could have done if she and quinn were both elims, and declaring her innocent because she didn't follow the plan. It's a weird way to find someone innocent.There's more about their posts this cycle that are setting my gut off, but I haven't figured out why yet. I'll take another look later, if I'm still awake.

Mistakes like this make me even angrier! Fixed in the list. I'm not going to keep that poat up to date though, so if people could periodically post their own vote counts, that'd be nice.

Haha, this is going it be fun to play, knowing so few of you. RP will be in italics. You're making me pretty angry there Max, accusing me for no good reason. Thanks! The angrier I get, the easier it will be to crush you! I'd love to accuse tyou back, but i've got someone else I'm even angrier at! Ignoring you math, your point is still good! We need to get everyone riled up so they yell a lot and let their secrets slip! And everyone needs to do their part! Which is Why I'm so angry at Mori and Hypnolia! They're talking the talk, but they're not walking the walk! You two need to vote! Liranil for posting but not voting. I'd vote for gears, but they already have a vote on them. _-_-_-_-_- Vote Count -_-_-_-_-_ Quinn0928 (1): Ooklil' the Wei A Joe in the Bush (1): Ookla the Araris Valerian Ooklil' the Wei (1): Quinn0928 Gears (1): Ookla the Paradoxical Ookla the Araris Valerian (1): Elandera Liranil (1): A Joe in the Bush People who have yet to post: (edited as Condensation apparently posted before this) 06. @Ookla the Shadowed (Experience) 10. @Lord_Silberfarben 12. @Somebody from Sel - Sal Cómin 13. @The Windrunner Supreme 14. @TJ Shade 15. @Vapor - Vanessa

I would very much like to sign up. I'm very surprised that this filled up so quickly, so I'll pinch hit if I have to. If I can sign up, I'll sign up as Endless Wrath an Epic who gets stronger and more durable the angrier he is.

You're welcome, and I'm glad to hear it! I spent way too long working on that advice for it to be wasted by Araris lynching Vapor. I hope it helps you win a game! (Unless you're facing me.)

That was really fun! Thanks for running the game Straw! Thanks to Gears for letting me live. I didn't turn out well for you, but I enjoyed the game.

Well i still think Silberfarben is a more likely candiadate for elim-hood then Xino. I don't think they're both elims though, so one of you are lying really well. Maybe both? I really hope it's not both of you.

Well, at the very least, we can now feel certain that there are exactly 2 elims. Currently living players include Araris and Sorana, who voted to lynch Vapor, the only known elim, and Silber and Xino, who specifically did not. Ugh, i'm too fuzzy right now to figure out who to votw on. We'll be in Lylo for the rest of thw game though, so thia lynch needs to be on an eliminator. I'll have to assume it's Silber and Xino. Sorana and Araris literally lynched Vapor between them, so if they're the elins GG. Silberfarben.

Here are the Day 1 Votes: So Gears, Sorana, and Araris all caused the vote to be tied, (So did Matrim, but I don't think a 1-1 vote is really a tie.) and Stink and Illwei broke the tie. Of the original Gears six, Illwei and Xino didn't vote for Gears again last turn, and Sorana switched to vote for Gears. Honestly? I'm a bit more suspicious of Vapor now. three villagers voted for them ( @Vapor, what are you pronouns?) and every time they got in danger of a lynch, the tie was broken in their favor. Xino, the last person to vote on Gears, is currently voting on Araris, the last person to vote on Vapor. That could imply that the Elim team includes Vapor, Stink, and Xino, but that theory is hurt by Illwei also breaking a tie. I also don't think that Stink or Xino are elims, which would imply that Vapor isn't, as otherwise, they weren't helped by anyone on their team. Who does that leave? 2. Araris 4. Elknah 7. Silber 10. Sart 11. Sorana Right, I'm going to ignore @Lord_Silberfarben until he has time to say something analyzable. Which leaves Araris, Elknah, Sart, and Sorana. I'm feeling good about Sorana, no alarm bells in her posts, so that leaves Araris, Elknah, or Sart as my suspects from this very shoddy, gut based analysis. None of them have a vote on them. kay. Araris and Elknah were both semi-responsible for the tie. Araris said he was expecting Elknah to break the tie, and Elknah said he forgot the time zone. This could be them working together to force a tie to prevent any village information. Araris and Elknah, you've both already given defenses for your cases. Either of you have anything else to add? But I just realized that Araris voted on Elknah last turn. Checking back, he did that before any of the Gears voters, so it seems legit as a vote. maybe distancing, maybe legit? I guess I'll stick with [ Elkanah ] as my vote. Vote Count: Xino (1): Elkanah STINK (2): Araris, Sorana Elkanah (1): Joe

Time to revisit it. Gears. Vote count: Araris (1): Xino Illwei (1): Matrim Elkanah (1): Araris Gears (4): Sart, Stink, Vapor, Joe Vapor (1): Illwei I'm on the fence about whether or not gears could be an elim, but at this point, seeing the wide vote spread, I don't care. We need a much more certain target, rather than another tie. If Gears is an elim, we can look back at the first day with much clearer vision, and find teammates among the players who pushed for Vapor. If he's a villager, we can look for elims among the people who tried to get mpre people to focus on Gears or Vapor to the exclusion of everyone else, and might even be able to clear some of the people who started off with votes elsewhere.

Iilwei, elkanah, and araris have votes on them. Vapor and gears don't. I fond it sightly interested that none of us want to pursue either of those lynchs anymore. I can't tell of that'a because everyone thinks they're both village (i'm in that camp), or if people think it's too muddled to get any more info out of now. (I disagree) I don't know who i'll vote for. I'm not really feeling any of the 5. All 3 of today's votes had fairly good reasoning, but also faily village explanations. Illwei is probably the most suspicious of the three, so i'll toss my vote there if another reread later tonight doesn't yield better suspicions. EDIT: Lol, ninja'd by Sart.

We're just waiting on Stink, Sorana and Xino now. You should definitely post while sleep deprived, it makes for the best posts.

It was just for emphasis. I've blacked it out for now to avoid confusion amongst others. As for your defense, I have not played the past few games, and must judge you based on only what I know.

Ouch my Skull. Gears. Edit: Blacked out the name Gears to avoid confusion.

Sart took the words out of my mouth. Gears.

I look forward to killing you all. Good luck!

I'm in, signing up as Various Divide.

Blegh, i need sleep. You've convinced me. [ Gears ] i'll vote some time tonight.

Can people please discuss this? Everyone seems to be ignoring this. @Araris Valerian, @Orlok Tsubodai, @Devotary of Spontaneity, @Elbereth, @Matrim's Dice, what are you opinions on this? And please try to view this from my point of view, because for me, I can't come to any conclusion other than elim!Ventyl. It's taken me like three reads to parse this. Are the bolded and underlined people all Striker? There are too many pronouns for me to follow. If it is striker, I think it's just a sibling thing rather than a teammate thing.

TJ, He's on to us! =P Gross. Hmm, that's going to make this look bad. [ Gears ]. I'd rather lynch gears than Ventyl or TJ. Both are almost certainly village Radiants. I wouldn't say I'm fully suspicious of Gears, but they are going after people I trust. This game is too active for me. I'll be more useful with my actions once more people die off. Also, I no longer trust Elbereth nearly as much, and i I have time later tonight, I'll do a full analysis on them. (Don't expect too much. Likely I'll just skim their posts.)

I trust TJ. The only way he's an Elim is if Ventyl is also an Elim.

That's going a bit far. Maybe step back and remember that this is only a game? Ventyl is allowed to protect themself and try to stay alive instead of going for the optimal village move. Honestly at this point, I think Ventyl has done brilliantly. Assuming they're a villager Knight, the Elims aren't going to kill them. There's too little/much information about whether or not Ventyl is actually killable. The Elims are much more likely to target someone else and leave them alive for a while. It's better to go for a sure kill than a potentially blocked kill. If they're an Elim, which I straight up do not believe is possible, then they have done a brilliant job in pretending othewise, to the point where I'm willing to defind them and makes sure someone else get's lynched. Frankly, I think we should just ignore the Ventyl stuff for now and focus elsewhere.
