So, I basically get to get other alts fucked with while I sit here clean, unless I'm found, in which case they get my info but under another player's Alt.

Really useful as an Esper if I can get it.


Yeah. Basically at night you hide in a corner and everyone who goes looking for you trying to do a NA on you finds the person you doppelgang'd instead (but that person can still find you).

For the finds, the information someone finds will be whatever your doppelganger has, *except* for anything related to physical descriptions (because you made them look like you)

Hey D'rek, can we keep a running list of people with SHell access in here somewhere? Just so I know to update them so they don't have to PM me (like LadyB has had to) and ask?

Possibly the first game I've seen where the modding looks equally if not more so confusing than the game itself. The flowchart is so big I have to scroll about the screen to use it :).

Looks absolutely great though.

Download it and open it in a picture viewer program that you can zoom and scroll around easily. You have to admit, it's better than a 20-part action order, a la Mirror >> Guard = Unguard >> Immune >|> Explode >> Jump with a thousand considerations you need to keep in mind throughout the resolution :)

Thank you. Now to read the OP, again.

Provisional Guard Tellan

Then Guard these in this order if alive each day unless otherwise stated.

Kaschan
Telas
Eloth
Liosan
Osseric
D'riss


So, each night you want to guard the highest person on this list who you haven't yet guarded and who is alive?


Serc, on 03 July 2012 - 01:46 PM, said:

Can I say Would you class the Thel Akai as a God?



Yup, there's no reason you can't say that. You can straight up say you are a Fenn, or hint at it, or whatever, that is fine, you are completely allowed to talk about yourself so long as you don't literally quote the role PM.

I can submit provisionals, right? it's not like lynches, where it becomes set in stone right away, or is it?

This is the first game I've played in a while where I actually have the potential to gain behind the scenes information. Refreshing.

I'll probably die right away now.


Yup, regular NA rules - provisionals are allowed and encouraged!

Tellan, on 03 July 2012 - 01:45 PM, said:

My ability should be very useful if I make it to D day or the day before Dday. If there's a no lynch then, I could win the game for my team



Tellan, on 03 July 2012 - 02:07 PM, said:

I'm gonna say that Telas is DiBs

Hola PS,whichever of you is online at the moment can ans.wer a few questions?and should i ask my questions here or in another PC?


Here is fine.

Osseric, on 03 July 2012 - 02:08 PM, said:

first question:whats with the pre dead guy?withdrawal from game or a weird game mechanic?

second question : WTF with my ability? are you trying to kill me? if i have read it right ,it seems i am (maybe) the only adventurer that will know if we lynched the right person?
Oh, and dammit. couldn't you give me a real useful Find ability? Necrotic Finder... Pah
Last: I hope there is a mechanic where i can get a real find .


Are there any real questions in there? Your ability is your ability - learn to love it because it is an inherent part of yourself!

He doesn't realize yet that the dead alts from his Divinity list are still playing. When he does, it's going to blow his mind :)

I'm not even going to speculate as to who's playing who.
There's plenty of great players for it not to even matter.
As of right now I'm leaning towards Eloth and Telas for the required Day 1 vig.
They seem to be the most analytical so far. The others are being coy.
I'm not speculating too much, but in case we either don't die or assume additional tasks post death, or I get tied to this Target in some way I want someone that is a great thinker.


Sounds good. FYI, I would prefer to have you do your killer earlier in the day, rather than later - better chance that I'll be online, and also gives the thread a brief break between your ninja vig (which is going to come out of NOWHERE :) ) and the end of day.

But this is not a compunction, if you want to leave it to the last second you can.

Ahhh,it seems a general silence is in order about the dead.


Maybe not everyone knows the same things - after all, not everyone has the same abilities. Maybe you will learn more as you play along, dependent on how much people are willing to reveal...

Kalse, on 03 July 2012 - 06:35 PM, said:

Ok, current thought process is that if 15 players were actually playing at the start, one of them began the game dead, which sucks for them, but would be pointless unless they had some sort of useful information, so it would be worth contacting Silanah to see what they know. This all, of course, depends on who is lynched today, but I have a feeling this might be the best option for day 1.

Ok, just had a CRAZY THOUGHT.

We know the cult is severely outnumbered. Severely. We know there are ghosts manning ships and obviously I can commune with the dead. So the question is - what if Silanah is the only cult member right now? I don't see anywhere in the OP that states dead people can't use actions. And actually, the OP says "or dead players who no longer wish to play". So what if the initial recruit has to come from Silanah and then her first recruit is essentially the cult leader and they must build numbers from there? Perhaps they even gain ectomancy powers as I do, and can commune with their dead cult leader. That would explain the "extreme numerical disadvantage" statement - there could be 0 cult members alive right now. Which would mean the game will last a little while to give cult a fighting chance, meaning fewer killing abilities and more reliance on lynching and communication.

And I wonder if I contact Silanah....if I might not be converted by default. IT'S A TRAP!


Lol, IT'S A TARP!!!

But if you do nothing, how will you ever escape the pitch black labyrinth beneath the Tower???!!!

Oh, and as for the "or dead players who no longer wish to play", that's just part of the standard rules I copy+pasted, and I'm not really sure why it is there - don't all dead players want access to SH usually? What is there left after that in a regular game? Anyways, it's not really applicable to this game and is just about SH access anyways, so don't go crazy on it.

That statement, I believe, is meant to be "who no longer wish to play ALONG" -> I.e. they don't want the spoilers they want to see if they can figure it out first. Maybe. XD

Aw dang, I didn't check for this before the on-thread events and he died...

If you like I can still do it, and just say it happened before, or you can pick another person.

Day one is either going to be a no-lynch or a speed lynch... Hopefully the former...

Change Mischief to use on Liosan.


His responses to Kalse seem at best jumpy, at worst, useless and distracting

Sorry about changing my action again (this should be the last one, day times out around when I wake up...)
Use Mischief on Fener
It's easy to hide behind the RP.


Noted, but you're going to want to change it now that he just died. Might I suggest making a list of backups to avoid this?
