Sorry I've been awol but I'm back and I've more or less caught up. That was hugely entertaining by Khell. Though him ratting out players like that even if one of them happened to be himself was a mistake.

So apparently no one else thinks that Barghast could be a barbarian. I've reread his post regarding his location clues and I could have misinterpreted what he was saying as traveling through. But I thought it very telling that Tennes jumped to his defense very quickly. But for now I'll back off but for the record he is still highly suspicous to me.

Now for information that Meanas/Mockra provided. I actually believe him regarding Thyrllan. I got the exact same read off of his vote on Meanas as Meanas/Mockra did. As for Telas I'm not sure I can put much faith in what he says. He even admitted that he didn't know for sure what he was and as Mockra/Meanas didn't divulge which location they were in when he did his search whatever. I'm not sure I can get behind a Telas lynch without aditional information.

Now that I addressed most of the issues at hand I would like to point out that there are a few players that have been completely under the radar for me. I have absolutley no read on Ruse or Atrahal. I think when I get a chance I'll need to do a readup on those two. Anybody else have a take on either of these players?




I can't really remember anything about them.

Had a read over Telas' posts and aside from his being non-confrontational, which in this game with so much uncertainty a lot of is are, he didn't jump out at me in any particular way.

Just a second to post:


some good back & forth going on, @HP - I can't seem to get a feel for Barghast, but I agree about Thyr

Some speculation about warlords & their powers - I have no idea who's right & wrong here

@ Emurlahn - You're stirring the pot a little, and I know that;s a good thing. Just don;t lump everybody together because 75% of the players are low posters compared to you.


And what's up with Silanah? Are you over-symping Emur trying to get him lynched for being an Emperor or leader, have you been turned into a recruit? You've seemed very independent to me this game, now you;re all about some helping Emurlahn to work on some theories. Any comment?

And if on que, here I am. (It's my normal posting time) And I'm not sticking around. I will be back in three hours or so. A quick look see's five people with less posts than me, just saying.

You are right that there are a few people with just as few posts as you. Tennes and Kaschan looks like they are just coasting along. Mayhap time to start putting some pressure on these skulkers.

other non-entities as far as i'm concerned include Kaschan and to a lesser extent Karosis (Karosis posts. and fairly frequently. most of it is playing catchup, though, not really offering much insight)
Sheltatha and Korlat are pretty low-key as well.


Karosis has just been floating through the game. Keep a very low profile. Right now he is my number one suspect for being a warlord. I haven't been able to put him into a faction. There was a couple of posts of his from earlier today that smacked of a someone disagreeing with how other people envision their role. In other words trying to down play the warlord threat. Give me a sec and I will find those posts.

Do warlords not have some kind of power? Night kills don't seem to be doing much at the moment, very have happened.




On a serious note, I would imagine warlords would have skills somewhat like those of emperors. Now, I doubt we have an emperor sitting around willing to share his/her skills with us, but we could probably speculate. Warlords probably don't have as many skills as an emperor, but a kill or something like that wouldn't surprise me. I would imagine an emperor's skills to be faction oriented (intelligence, maybe adding a benefit if within their own borders, stuff like this?).

edit: spelling


similar to emperors?...

i dunno about that..it seems a bit unbalanced if the warlords are similar to emperors, since the emperors are the head of much larger faction, all with their own abilities. While the warlords have small faction and are expected to compete in this game.

I would think that a warlord would be something with a bit different to an emperor if anything to balance out the lack of numbers.


I didn't have to go very far to find the post where it seemed like he was trying to explain the warlords position.

Time for a little pressure to be applied to someone who seems to feel that warlords should be give the benefit of the doubt.

Someone called for my thoughts, happy to oblige.

After all that has happened, we have 3 people who came on and said "Oh I have to catch up, no time blah blah". That would be Kesso, Kaschan and Atrahal. Secretly I hope at some point they're the only ones left, so that this game lasts until April.

Mr. 25-posts Omtose "applies pressure" to Karosis for floating. Et tu la pot?

Other than HP briefly mentioning the possibility of Tennes defending Barghast, everyone else has completely ignored the Tennes part of the rant by Meanas. Korlat focused on Telas, Emur has brought up Galain/Okaros, HP fingers Barghast and Omtose comes out of no where for Karosis (based on something Emur said).

This makes me think I smell someone important, someone people don't want to talk about. That and Emur is very clearly directing traffic (Sil and Omtose at least).

Vote Tennes

for the time being.

I think the issue with this is it is most likely that Tennes is one of the three kingdoms factions, if he really was on that tile on that time there is no way he can be a barbarian and so what with the focus on finding a barbarian Tennes doesn't seem like the most obvious target, I do agree though that I don't get the Karosis thing since all he seemed to be saying was that role would surely have some kind of power to balance out the whole smaller factions/edge of map thing and post count he isn't the highest either, so it feels a little off.

From way back on day two I think it was one of the players that I was feeling a ping over was in fact Barghast and I still don't feel totally comfortable with him and think there is a chance he is barbarian, his switching between serc and tiam without little thought to what team they were on early on seemed kind of uncaring, like it wasn't something he had to worry over much.

Then there is Galain and his back and forth with Meanas over the whole OP slip-up which and even Emur and how he seems to ironically have become the Osseric of the game in being early to suggest next lynch targets but then it just stands out because he is posting a lot.

Obviously low posting makes it hard because there are a few players in that category that i'm finding it hard to get any read on at all.


It feel like small suspicions and pulls towards players rather than anything I feel very confident about.

Ahh but there is floating and then there is FLLOATTING, and then there is FLLOATING and trying to minimize a major role. Which is what Karosis has done. I didn't realize that in order for my suspicious to be taken seriously I had to post like I had 12 chain smoking monkeys chained to keyboards in my basement posting. I don't know if Tennes is a warlord. But based on my own suspicious I am pretty sure that Karosis is not in one of the major factions. I shall now be like a hound with the sent of sausage in the air.

Emur and I must have similar posting times (often?) because I find myself interacting with him more than anyone else.

I was confirming that Atrahal and Ruse seemed to be playing it safe, let me look back to see if there is anything else.

I responded to his Galain case with the assertion that I wanted to look into things myself, since there is nothing concrete.

Right now, I'm thinking that we need to get rid of some of these low posters. I feel that we have a pretty good chance of finding a Warlord of Champion in there somewhere.

But which one. How does one choose between multiple low content posters?

Reading back through.

Vote Karosis

With the heat turned (rightly so) to the low posters. Yes me too. I see Omtose reacting like he has been caught with his hand in the cookie jar. Trying to look like he has been an active player. That to me says he has something to hide.

I can't really change time to make me have more of it for making cases, but I may have a few unwanted days off this week (thur, Fri) If so, I will be on constant those days.

Yea I think my vote will go there for now

Vote Omtose

I will be here off and on for the next hr. I have homework to do but I will be refreshing the thread.

Yes you sir are absolutely correct with my 28 posts I am trying to look like a active player. Got me. Wow well done. If I had not decided to make a case on Karosis then you would have continued to ignore me. So how exactly am I being caught with my hand in a cookie jar. There is no reason for you to have to come to Karosis's defense unless you are now suddenly in the warlords camp. Everyone in this game has something to hide so please come up with something better then that.

Vote for them and see what the prodding turns up, I guess?

I might take a look into what Emur is saying about Okaros, but like others I'm a bit wary of being lead around by the nose. Mind you, at the moment Emur is making suggestions about pretty much everyone <_<
