2. Unlike me Karosis isn't strictly a low poster. He is a perfectly middle of the pack poster. Which tells me that he is someone who has a good role and doesn't want to draw attention to himself by being either a high (in your face poster) or a low (potential easy lynch) poster. He has managed to avoid every single major out burst and yet still get on trains. It is the little things that start to add up for me.



I was feeling this was about Okaros, too..


okay, honestly, I can't keep my eyes open anymore.

good night guys


Okaros is definately another one. But Karosis I am a lot more sure about.

Back from class. I'm tired, and starving, so I'm not going to do any serious mafia playing until the morning. We have ample time. It seems we've decided to start a Warlord/champion hunt. We have overlooked their little factions for a while, so it makes sense. There has also been talk of low posters and coasting. It seems that warlord and usurper roles would benefit greatly from staying under the radar seeing as they gain the most by letting the factions destroy one another for as long as possible.



You know, I just read back through all your posts ... and if ever there was a person who was coasting, it's you.

Nearly half your posts use the phrase "checking in," or talk about how you'll back later, or will read more in depth ... and there's never any follow on. You just piggy-back other people's arguments, never get in a fight, and generally ... coast.

So if anyone fits the Warlord faction profile - as you yourself define it - it's, well, you.


Galain what do you think about Karosis?

Now, I find it amusing that so far, no-one has voted Telas when Khell announced he's more or less definately a barbarian. I think there's a very good chance that Telas has been spotted doing dirty nasty things to Xia goats, Xia horses, and the odd Xia peasant girl in his hide-out in the Xin Du area.

vote Telas

I have no read on them. I'll try to do a read-through of their posts, but my ISP keeps dying, and I just polished off a bottle of wine at 1 a.m. ... we'll see. The fact that I can't remember anything they've said is at least somewhat telling, though.

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


Vote Karosis



This is blatant strawmanning.
when did i ever say that we should give warlords the benefit of the doubt?

If anything i was saying they are MORE dangerous than emperors!
because they would need to be because they only have a small faction behind them and for balance sake they should be "stronger"

sheesh...

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.



Keeping a low profile is par for the course in this game.
You could say the same thing for more than half of the people on here.

Cept they would all have less posts than me....meh

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.


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.


Edited for Grammer


nonsense... either you are stupid or you are trying to make people look at me, perhaps someone important to you is on the chopping block today?...who knows.

If i say that the warlord is not the same as an emperor "because he is in change of a smaller faction" and that he must be different because of balance...then obviously i am saying that he must be meaner to balance the lack of numbers!..correct?....how do you come to the conclusion that i am somehow downplaying the role?

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







interesting vote, right after Omtose' non case.

another seemingly random case, there are a plethora of players to choose from yet you both seem to randomly push for me.

I dont mind getting lynched but i would just like to point out that these two (omtose & silanah) are obviously linked before i do ;).

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.


You are really pandering this warlord thing around like its fact..... its rather amusing.

Back who wants to talk



I do
any reason you prefer Karosis over say, Kaschan?


There are several reasons why I perfer Karosis over kaschan. 1. Karosis has started to make statements where he down plays the warlord threats. That smacks of someone who has that role and hasn't been able to do much with it so far (see him talking about how the warlord isn't as powerful as an emperor and so shouldn't be considered as much of a threat as a emperor) which is bullshit. The warlords are just as big of a threat as the emperors to each emperor. On a slightly different tangent but so that you can see how I have been thinking.

With 20 odd people starting this is not exactly unique to myself.
Plus i was not on the last two trains, think i have only been on two trains if i am correct....so here again we have you making things up to suit your needs.

How did I come to Karosis's defense by calling you on suddenly becoming active?


He's clearly implying that you're trying to move the focus from Karosis to Omtose. Seems rather weak but still.

Atrahal you are the last person who I wish to get angry at me or get into a pissing match with. I am not in the warlords camp. I have spent the majority of the game trying to figure out who are the warlords and I am very certain that karosis is either a warlord or a Champion, and based off of some of his recent posts I am convinced that he is a warlord.


Now why is that?

View PostSilanah, on 12 October 2011 - 04:14 AM, said:

It sure is a sneaky way to stay under the radar for the first part of the game. Some don't play it as well as others. HP, for example, was extremely low content the first part of the game. Now he's genuinely contributing, which means we can't lynch him for low posting. He avoided attention early on, and is avoiding attention now.


To be fair, most of us have experience with being lynched for some random nonsense day 1, and few games would be more frustrating to miss out on than this one. I quite understand why someone (including me I might add) would decide to sneak under the radar on day 1.

Still, when it comes to HP my problems are much the same as Silanah. I seem to change my mind about his faction at least twice a day.

Khell claimed I was in the same location as he was and that he didn't know who I was so he thought I belonged to the barbarians. Rather shaky grounds, wouldn't you say? Still, if you are willing to trust his statements post aneurysm then that's your business, but as I said before it seems to me that the whole thing happened because I voted for him just after he exploded.

Anyways, as of now Omtose seems to tickle me the most in the whole barbarian question. He's been lashing out in several directions without much fear of hitting one of his own, yet all in all he's been a very low poster. That combination would fit the barbarian profile more than anything I think.
