Vote Barghast

Bet 3 coins


Not based on "luck" but rather firstly the avatar changing, two hours ago he had a Barghast head, now he has a desert. There is a faceless man that we are trying to find and this is a good enough reason for me. Plus his posts about being confused and finally because of his lower posts, trying to avoid notice? well he isn't the lowest poster but he is down there too. A few reasons there.

I didn't like a couple of peoples posts at the beginning but that was more personal preference than cause to vote on the whole.

Back in the morning.


this had some substance, there was a reason.

Now everything that followed is sheer lunacy. How can 3 or 4 people say that Tiam isn't their leader? Only 3 people know their leader, the seconds. everyone else only knows the person above them, a few of you could have bet your own captain there which is just weird. did you not understand your pm's?

I hope now that Tiam does turn out to be your own captain, it'll serve you right for rushing your vote and not thinking things through.

Okay as we are playing a game of chance I will let chance determine my vote. Fortune favors the bold. With four straight flips of the coin each hitting tails (no not dragon tails).

Vote Tiamatha

Bet 5 credits.





I agree with the sentiment, though I'd like to avoid a crazy train.

vote Ampelas


Bet 5 credits


I certainly see this as a good indication of Tiamath being of higher rank. The argument made by Galayn Lord doesn't make any sense outside of a wish to derail. A bit blatant perhaps, but it struck me nevertheless.

"You voted for a random player. To avoid a crazy train I will also vote for a random player" ....

Seems like a classic symp action to me.

This here is about as nonsensical as one can be on day 1. If I was a betting man I would put what little credit I have on Ampelas being the FM. It's a tried and true tradition that the FM is the one on thread who obsesses most about finding the FM. Furthermore, no one can seriously believe a change of avatar means that someone is the FM. I chose then to believe that Ampelas holds other motives, rather than, you know, being a moron.

However, I'd prefer to gain some credits from this mess and as I mentioned above, Tiamath is an acceptable choice too, as far as I can see.

Vote Tiamath
Bet 5 credits

This is interesting and it looks like someone is steering away from Tiamatha before the mob can descend. Tiam aint my leader so.....

vote Tiamatha

No it didn't. Yours is more likely to be distancing. 3 random votes. If what you say is true then only me or Galayn would know who Tiamatha was, not both of us, as people only know the person directly above them.

In a game with only one vote pr person pr day and where a wrong vote will cost you credits there is no such thing as a random vote.

The captains know they are safe, too. So that makes 7 people who are safe to bet randomly. 3 captains, 3 seconds, the FM.

Also,

Vote Tiam

Bet 6 credits.

Liosan your a cock. There has not been one good post from you yet. All through yesterday I had my vote on you, you would have been my choice of a lynch until barghast changed his avatar. He even admitted to changing it himself. Not something the mods did but himself. This is fishy. When all we had yesterday was dragonm sex it was the only fishy thing out there so that's why I voted Barghast. You being a dick doesn't help no one!

people seem to be under a strange idea about how the pms read. I said in many places and if people asked i explained it straightforwardly. You only know the next person in line of your faction.

captain
second
life1
life2
life3

the reason for this is that if a captain wins a hand and accepts the life into his faction that player joins the chain

captain
second
life1
life2
life3
life4
life5

life5 will learn life 4s identity even though life four has just joined that faction they are the next person. if the captain loses the next hand and the other does not want so many players life 5 dies first, then life 4 etc.

i will copy this to the op.

convenient, right after Tiam getting a few votes, right out of the spotlight. That's what a captain would do.

What, you think I'm a cock for pointing out the obvious? Changing ones avatar is not and never will be a suspicious thing. Trying to paint it thus, on the other hand, is.

Though, it would be better if you were to explain why you find it fishy.

with the heavy betting at the start, if this was just a normal game of poker, id guess that someone has a pocket pair, and at least ace high, maybe suited connecters, but theres no flush or straight out there


with heavy betting you'd think some one would either have two high cards, or two connector cards, so anything in the range from 7/8 suited 9/10 suited j/9 j/10 and above

there bluffing that they have the 3rd 8? or they bluffed at the start when they only had the hold cards? i think credit wise they have all pretty much gone all in, its only lives that are left to bet with now, bit risky to do that pre flop


I mean bluffing that they have better than a pair or 3 of kind

It's nice to know you're life is a token, eh?


to bluff you'd put someone all in, if they have an "okay" but not great hand they'd fold, it wouldn't be worth the risk, going all in is what i'd do here, with any type of hand, and i bet i'd win it

Unfortunately, 'all in' here means pretty much your entire faction and the starting chips on the table. Sure, you might win it, but if the other players went against you, it would be devastating. Especially if you were bluffing.

But yes, a vote count would be nice, H&M.

Awesome. I'm going to get lynched for no reason whatsoever. Or rather, the 'He's not my leader' argument which shows effing bad reading comprehension. Awesome, so not just no reason except 'COOOOOOINNSSS' but also people who haven't read their Role PM and either made a slip (in which case my death will have a positive effect unless my own second is also someone who reads his/her role PM diagonally) - or now run the risk of voting their captain. Just fucking peachy.

Listen, you fucking dummies. The goal of Lives is to try and identify opponents who may be in other factions, and to try and find the FM. Well, guess what, a lynch day 1 when there has been no change by the FM so trying to find him is, hey, what... a shot in the dark. Seconds and captains will try to stay alive as long as possible, I guess, to preserve their credit.
Also, the faster people die who are not the FM, the easier it will be for him to capture a captain.

But oh well.

Awesome, this. Reminds me of Heroes 2, where no-one gave a fuck about lynching either. And got their asses kicked by the few people who did read their PM and understood the game.


This reaction makes you look like you are a captain but its too late, i'd assume if you were a captain you would have come on to defend yourself after the second vote or something towards them lines

We have reached a majority, but he cannot call day end until the captains bet. they need to have a final round of betting before anything happens
