As suspected, it looks to me like the game might well boil down to Nepeth vs. White Foal - there's two distinct voting blocs developing thanks to these lover connections and Korv's good/lucky use of her attack ability.

I just hope the game lasts long enough so we can be witness to JA's furious vengeance upon his return

[Path-Shaper]

And the (earlier) thought processes of Liosan and Omtose, following JA's death and all ze killings:

How'd your raid go?

I don't gots much money at the moment, just enough to try and make another lover connection. With only 10 people left, (and you and me still around), do you think there's a chance we've got any other teammates? I'm debating whether to spend it or not.

Liosan, on 04 January 2012 - 02:19 PM, said:

Hmm, the Night resolution makes us sound like a bunch of pussies. I didn't expect this game to be as initially violent, so maybe we need to change our strategy...

Ah, the Khanate. The White Foal responded, but their retaliation wasn't as staunch as the Nepeth's initiation of hostilities. They did what they do best: raid and squable. Apparently, their Tar-Khan was supposed to lead their host, but... she is so young. A sweet girl no doubt, but she has to control the Ghost in the Night and the Terror of the Sands, and I doubt those two listen much to her qhwn she stamps her foot. There is a moving piece on Khaheris being staged in the Vizier's Taberna, by the way, if you wish to learn more of that legendary raider. I am sure it is not really authentic nor anywhere close near the historic truth, but it should appeal to someone interested in collecting fables, I think."

Are you known as either of those two titles? Maybe I need to do the lover connection after all. If we have a voting bloc of three, that's powerful. I don't think there is a recruit action in this game, because the mechanics posts in the OPs don't mention it. It only seems like it will be in a future game.

Liosan, on 04 January 2012 - 02:56 PM, said:

Ok, I went ahead with it.

Anomandaris is also a White Foal rider. So that's a nice little 3 person voting bloc, (as long as no one is a traitor of course )

Omtose, on 04 January 2012 - 03:23 PM, said:

My actual title is "raider". Althoughbbeing teh best Whote Foal rider out there, i could be the terror. Though its not in my PM.

3 out of 10 is pretty massive, its a good thing, hehe

Omtose, on 04 January 2012 - 10:10 PM, said:

ok, it was pointed out to me, "Ghost in the night" is one of my passive NAs. ... duh

Liosan, on 04 January 2012 - 11:19 PM, said:

Who did you raid last night, and what'd you get?

I was going to raid Eloth, but he died, so I raided Anomandaris instead. Our teammate.... <facepalm>

Anomandaris said he raided HP last night and got Magic, so that tells us something. So, what happened with your raid?

Omtose, on 04 January 2012 - 11:20 PM, said:

I left Tleas as my prov, w/o any backup, and went to bed.

and he died, so I raided no one. sigh.

Liosan, on 04 January 2012 - 11:25 PM, said:

Yeah, with that number of dead, it seems our provs need some backup.

Omtose, on 04 January 2012 - 11:35 PM, said:

yeah, we really need to coordinate this.

I suggest each one of us makes a list of the remaining 7 players in order in which we want them raided.

Liosan, on 04 January 2012 - 11:43 PM, said:

Well, Ano did Korv last night so that leaves 5 others, so go ahead and make a list from those 5 and we'll follow accordingly.

Liosan, on 04 January 2012 - 11:45 PM, said:

Wait, whoops

He raided HP.

Omtose, on 05 January 2012 - 12:06 AM, said:

6, no?

us 3+ HP, leaves another 6.

we should all make a list with all 6 in it, just gotta make sure we don't pick the same first person.
I'ma put Galain as my no 1.

Liosan, on 05 January 2012 - 12:12 AM, said:

BTW, as your fearless leader I can do a raid that destroys a portion of another players water as well as steals some. So, if we can deduce that someone is possibly a big-leader type threat, I should run that raid on them to cripple them somewhat.

Liosan, on 05 January 2012 - 12:12 AM, said:

And you're right, it's 6.

my current logic is such
there are 7 non-White Foal players out there.

4 of them are somewhat talkative (HP, Galain, Emur, Korv)

3 of them are quiet nonentities (Sukul, D"riss, OE)

Mafia theory 101 suggests good chances there's one scum-Nepeth in each group.

Since HP had magic as his commodity, makes it less likely he's Nepeth.

leaving us some room to work with.

Liosan, on 05 January 2012 - 02:42 AM, said:

Personally I want to keep an eye on D'riss. I'll put my prov on him, with Korv as a backup.

[Path-Shaper]

Much thanks Kell wonderful job. I am going home.

Vengeance

[HoosierDaddy]

Really nice post by Anomandaris there. Well done.

[Khellendros]

There is a ridiculous amount of information to be gained now from people's reactions to what's on offer at the bazaar. I sincerely hope they're taking notes!

[HoosierDaddy]

There's a ludicrous amount of information from people's reactions! Look at scum team's reactions to all the deaths!

Yeah, that was mind-boggling.
Also, if the White Foal manage to attack the same person, they essentially vig him. Why don't they realize that?????

Tepmashi Tar-Kahn - Night phase 2-

Tepmashi's Kiss on D'riss

if lynched or killed at dusk, Emurlahn

if also lynched or killed at dusk, Korvalain

I'm going to try my hardest to be on after lynch though, to possibly switch to a target I really like. I really want to hit someone important and fuck up their water supplies.

If he continues on D'riss, D'riss would have to drop at the least two Retainers. That would make Liosan the strongest military force in the game.

Omtose, on 05 January 2012 - 05:53 AM, said:

after further coordination, the list is revised

Emur
Sukul
Korv
OE
Galain
D'riss

Provisional Battle Olar Ethil

Although i'm unsure so it isn't set in stone. I was just looking at post count and who might have a powerful town role. This is a hard game to read seem as I don't know any of my team. I am assuming they know me, meaning Ano's IGMEOY could have been a signal, whereas other people are refraining from mentioning me. I was going to put HP in there but it's a toss up between Galain and HP who I think to be Nepeth. I have no read on Emurlahn as of yet, nor Omtose or Korvalian, in fact I will need a proper read through today and see if I can get some clue as to who is or is not Nepeth.

noted as provisional.

[Path-Shaper]

Awesome work btw, Khell! Massive thanks

Hey Ano, how is your money situation? If one of us is hurting for funds, we could set up some "insider trading" in the bazaar.

Yeeeeesssssss; someone understands

[HoosierDaddy]

I'm so pissed I got killed. Damn you and your addictive games Tapper! I probably won't play for another two fucking months.

Well, the queue is short and if people liked this experiment, I'll start on refining 0.66 straight away.

[Khellendros]

Insider trading, yes! I also like the idea of the White Foals mass raiding one person, but only if they know that person is Nepeth - anyone else and it's essentially killing an inno.

[Khellendros]

Also, what will happen if Sukul initiates his own Battle AND gets drawn into one by Korvalain again?

You're right, that was both funny and mind-boggling, worthy if an incredulous shake of the head

He'll fight two seperate battles with all his troops, asuming he survives the one that has been submitted first.

That would be just too funny if he survived his own battle by the skin of his teeth only to be then wiped out thanks to a teammate

Yup
I think Korv is going to tag-team with D'riss this time around, though...
