And I got Thyrllan correct.


Well, that was....head-pounding-into-table-argh-what-am-I-doing-annoying. I can't believe I goofed so badly - twice!

[Khellendros]

Hah! And I got Emurlahn correct as Xia too!

Do you think anyone at all out there is going to listen to my final words of advice?

[Khellendros]

Will read all of SH tomorrow after some sleep - did I spy correctly that I was to be recruited by Sima Yi?

Anyhoo...off to bed.


That was/is a fantastic game D'rek! Amazingly well-constructed, and I love your scene-writing.

Well, I was close on the Telas thing at least. I knew he didn't fit into the Yan group, I just guessed he was a Warlord because of our location. But Sima Yi eh?

Obviously you didn't read your PMs from the previous night before going crazy on thread and getting lynched, huh? Otherwise you'd have seen:

Path-Shaper, on 10 October 2011 - 03:28 PM, said:

Recruit - Mockra has been recruited by Sima Yi (Telas). He now knows that Mockra has been recruited and is Zhu Rong. You are now a secret member of the Jin faction and will win only with it. You still appear to be Yan to other players and your abilities are unchanged.

As a result of Mockra being recruited, Meanas is automatically recruited, too. Sima Yi also now knows that Meanas is Meng Huo.

At first I was very, very confused why you were outing him like that. Kinda sucks for Morgy if they go with what you said and you end up having screwed your team over

[Jump Around]

Haha, poor Morgy wanted Mockra because she was out of the spotlight

That exchange was very funny, but outing Telas was another small notch in Khell's Saboter card

Also, since this might be a good spot for spoiler entries, now that the off-thread communications are, uh, dead:

I'm more and more convinced Emurlahn is part of a Warlord faction, due to his wilingness to take down anyone, and attack in every direction.

Sorrit might be in Meanas' faction, they could even be PM and Emperor, though I'm largely convinced that Barghast is a PM or Emperor. But Sorrit's bull-rush to derail the increasing momentum on a Meanas lynch was pretty obvious. I'm surprised no-one called them out on it.

I'll have to go back over it to see who it was, but it wasn't just Thyrllan who gave theirselves away as Lu by quickly tossing votes onto Meanas in regrettably obvious support of Osseric.

On the positive side - that is, the side that says might faction isn't fucked - Meanas will probably be up for a lynch next Day. I'm just waiting for someone to slip up ... and wondering how we can have so many very, very low posters so late in the game, who haven't been called out on it. There's no way to gracefully bring that in to the conversation, but I'll try.

[Path-Shaper]

Thanks for doing day resolution, ST. Thanksgivings over so I'll be back to my more active self the rest of the week.

Still missing actions from a few people, so night is going to time out while I'm asleep. Don't feel pressured into resolving night, it's a lot of work and my notes on it are not very good so feel free to leave it for me in the morning.

-D'rek

[Khellendros]

Oh. My. Lord.

I didn't see the recruitment message!!!!!!!!!!!!

I saw the Illumination, and the notice that I also received, but I didn't realise that there was another new message above those two



I'm sorry Morghy, I didn't know! So this means, even if Yan win, I lose? That seems somewhat fitting.

I have to admit, I had a feeling this game might turn out along these lines for me. And while it was fun to write those pages of nonsense, I do wish I was still in the game (and, you know, not outing new team members), because that was really fun.

And thanks for the death scene D'rek, that was truly awesome!

[Khellendros]

My brain is fried after 2 minutes of staring at the charts which D'rek's provided for each day's movement and actions.

A couple of questions: What is Augment? What was Lady Whatsit's Forgery thing, and what did it do?

Catapults?! Avalanches?!!!

Before you do, I'll tell you my Warlord suspicion so you have something to go on in that field. It's Telas. Why? Because he's the only person in my current location who I can't place in a faction.

If you want a Lu person, then Thyrllan is your best bet, he threw a vote on me when the lynch was definitely swinging towards Osseric, as Sorrit noticed at the time.

Well, toodles guys!

And this. I mean, Mockra could just have fucking voted for Meanas like the rest of us and shut up but noooooo...

Gah, when I get to SH I will kill his schizophrenic ass.

Telas, on 10 October 2011 - 09:41 PM, said:

I don't know what the fuck he's doing. However, I can only pray that he's still trying to work for me even though he sucks at it. If so I'll have to put value in his mention of Tennes being in Jiang Xia on night 1. He mentioned no other of the living Yan members apart from Silanah, and as such I can only pray that He's telling me that Tennes is the emperor.

What else is there for me to go on?

If one assumes then that Tennes is the emperor then Sorrit or Barghast must be the PM.

sorritt (most surely Yan)
Silanah
Ruse
Telas
barghast (could be xia, based on day 1 and after)
Sheltatha
Tennes (seriously suspected yan) also, could be vengy.
Thyrlahn (pathologically afraid of voting. suspicious)
Galain likely warlord
Atrahal - I have you telling me he's likely a diff. faction's peon. other than that, he's a non-entity.
Omtose one of the most likey xia
karosis (dkt) plays unusually low key.
Kaschan - he's still playing?
Hood's path - he is quite militant about Meanas outing yan. could be yan peon. Scratch that, he's a power role.

[Khellendros]

Hey PS, is it possible for you to send a PM to Morghy saying I apologise profusely, that I hadn't realised I'd been recruited (rather than purposefully betraying him)? Man, I feel so bad if I've ended up ruining his game.

Will this nightmare never end?

[Path-Shaper]

Galain, on 11 October 2011 - 08:30 AM, said:

Spoiler entry:

Just realized that Osseric never told me how much he told Thyrllan about who I am and my position. I really hoped JA just kept it to "He's on our team, get ahold of him if I get taken out," rather than "OMG, here's everything I know about him, he's totally our PM and stuck in one city, lol." I suspect the latter, unfortunately.

I'll have to slow play this until I can figure out if Thyrllan has either been recruited, or has been an enemy all along, or is who he appears to be. If I don't get any sort of a Find on him, I'll remain suspicious, simply because as Lu, he should be close to my location, so I can get a result. In fact, I'm just going to keep Finding him as long as I'm alive, because I'm doubtful that I'll ever hit anyone else, and Healing and Guarding seem singularly useless in my position.

Put it this way - if your betrayal was significant, he'll be in here soon enough and you can apologize then. If he doesn't get in here soon, then I guess you didn't do too much damage, right?

Sorrit dump:

Sorrit, on 11 October 2011 - 08:25 AM, said:

Frick frick frick, come on Khell, whilst that whole episode was brilliant you didn't have to buckle under pressure, you could have passed the initial mistake replying to Meanas' accusations by thinking that they where aimed at Mockra, but if you think that it would still get you lynched then come out, say that you're Yan, say that you have a good role and I guess that me, Tennes and other Yan may never have voted for you, but you just took it lying down, Oh also why did you bring Tennes' location night one out into the open, this made me think you weren't Yan because as a Yan player I would never bring undue attention on Tennes. The only way I could vaguely see it is that people will think he is in and around that area, yet who cares, if someone suspects an emperor they will push a lynch on him. So now i'm a bit confused with the whole fiasco

Sorrit, on 11 October 2011 - 08:27 AM, said:

See, it has started on thread already, Ruse!!

Sorrit, on 11 October 2011 - 11:03 AM, said:

Atrahal -

Makes the Geisha comment which links him to Emur slightly
Low Poster not much content but has increased this in the last day or so.
comments that Emur may be a civil servant, however I think he is downplaying this knowing that Emur is something more
Votes Gamelon, Serc, Osseric and Meanas.
Thinks meanas may have been a warlord at that time
re votes meanas like everyone else.
Possible Xia conncetions or trying to hide behind that faction, possible links with Emur

Sorrit, on 11 October 2011 - 12:05 PM, said:

Rashan - Civil official, Voted for Tiam, was part of Lu dynasty will use this when going over his post in more detail

Sorrit, on 11 October 2011 - 12:10 PM, said:

Omtose - comments on possible Yan emperor move


possible link to emurlahn

shows empathy for tiam

votes serc, gamelon, okaros and meanas

i'm thinking he is wanting to be perceived as xia or is part of that faction

Sorrit, on 11 October 2011 - 12:11 PM, said:

Kaschan has very little in his posts, has no confrontation and only votes for Osseric

Sorrit, on 11 October 2011 - 12:13 PM, said:

Tennes

votes serc, tiam, meanas and again meanas

wants an Emur lynch but has lynched 2 of his own faction, didn't vote for Osseric which was good play, set up by Meanas / Mockra possibly

Sorrit, on 11 October 2011 - 12:21 PM, said:

Kessobahn



Votes Gamelon but is more interested with Silanah voting for Okaros

Votes Tiam but then removes vote
Protects Emur in earlier posts

Accuses Osseric

Hammers Serc

Votes Tiam (thinking he is in the Xia faction) but looks like he is distancing here, he is also down as potential Xia.

Sorrit, on 11 October 2011 - 12:25 PM, said:

Thyrllan

Has missing posts when you search for his content, this is odd, especially since one of these posts is a vote post.

doesn't have much content

points out emur not voting yet wants focus to move away from tiam @ other people
no vote yet he was around

votes Meanas on Friday when Osseric was on his way out, yet has tiam connections



i'm going to say Lu for now

Interesting....

That is a whole slew of people in Luo Yang. Glad to see everyone decided to heed my suggestion yesterday (insert heavy sarcasm) The good news is that I now know who not to target for night actions. Basically everyone on this list. That gives me 10 targets. A killers dream.

Now from my estimations my faction had 5-6 players to start with. We lost one so that would take us down to 4-5. That means that of these 7 players 2-3 of them are enemies of the Xia as well. How to ferret them out?

Does the Illumination work the same as a Notice? As in does everyone in location receive this information?

You have no idea what Illumination is or does, the same as someone who didn't know your role PM would know about your abilities

Hood, on 11 October 2011 - 04:29 PM, said:

Decisions, Decisions, Desicions. If I move chances are someone from my team will get night killed as I blocked two attempts the previous two nights. So moving is out of the question. The problem is who do I target for NA? I can target one of the 10 players that I feel very confident that are not on my team but risk them not being at the border so a block wouldn't work. Or I can target someone on the Illumination list but risk hitting not only one of my teammates but likely wouldn't block a kill as I will be targeting someone within my location. I have at worst a 2/5 chance of targeting a player in Luo Yang and them being an enemy or at best a 3/5th chance. 50/50 gamble? And then still losing another teammate. That could put us from a good position to a very bad one. Though Telas is looking like a very good choice so I think my odds are very good at going after someone other than a Xia. That still doesn't prevent whoever is trying to kill a Xia from succeeding.

Looks like I'm staying put. Now I just need to figure out who I need to attack.
