For instance, you might wanna try Fener. 'Cause he ain't down south. Karosis, on the otherhand, would be a nice target for anybody on the Hadj.

That damn map has me confused. Fener ain't up north, he's down south. Karosis is up north, or round abouts. Direct actions thusly.

You seem to know a lot about where people are located, Tellan.

Though I'm not sure why you'd be telling us all this unless you're worried about what will happen to you tonight.

You think I'm just fucking about down here or that I'll let people just fucking raid me and steal from me without finding out something?
Anyways, the sacrosanct tiles cleared up the situation for some people's location.

I am here briefly before work.
@Tellan, what you're saying is interesting and im realising i dont know for sure what faction you are actually in, mostly just guess work. Would you be ok with an Atrahal lynch then?

I am going to make 1 important announcement before resolving the next phases and starting day 7.
I will only accept any provisional/alternative action that read:
Phase W, cycle #: Target X with ability Y. If X is lynched, target Z instead. And make sure you mention ability source, too.
This also outlaws: if target X was successfully targeted with Y, target him with Z.
I asked for provisionals to be simpler and easier a couple of game days ago. They've re-developed again into chain reactions that put a chemical facility to shame - and I simply feel it is out of control, impossible to mod, and taking away from the game.
This also goes for Tile Actions. If you are afraid to be lynched, Sacrosanct your tile the second you come online, don't put in an action "when I am at L-3, sacrosanct".
To compensate, I'll be building in several hours of time time between day's end and resolution of actions for dusk & on, in which you should have the results of your day actions and gauge the effectiveness of your night ones.

One fine winter dusk, when a setting sun made the sky red as blood, Mage Hassan the Dreadfather walked the Square of the Camels. I don't believe the market has been cleared of people any faster than that day.

Pasha's Armory
Pasha is the name of choice for many a mercenary. Offering armor of varying design and prices, he has something for everyone who is looking for protection. Don't expect his wares to be tailored to a specific style: instead, expect a toolbox.
Production Cost: 4 Sandstone, 3 Wood, 3 Armor, 3 Cotton, 3 Metal, 1 Labourer, 1 Weaver, 6000 dinari
1. Footman's Padded Shirt
2. Footman's Cap
3. Footman's Buckler
4. Swordsman's Fine Mail Shirt
5. Swordsman's Fine Steel Helmet
6. Swordsman's Fine Round Shield
7. Spearman's Fortified Mail Coat
8. Spearman's Fortified Helmet
9. Spearman's Fortified Shield
10. Rider's Exquisite Armor
11. Rider's Exquisite Crested Helmet
12. Rider's Exquisite Shield
I think someone owns Pasha's armory. Yet we have not seen many of the goods on the bazaar recently

Something threw a wrench in my earlier tile locations. Maybe not so probable after all.
Also, please don't try to lynch me today.

Who do you suggest would be a good target for today?
I think we should pick one and hammer him until dead but no one else seems to like that idea.
That switch to you yesterday seemed very orchestrated. They were voting for you and arguing with Telas all at the same time. Very fishy in my opinion

I agree entirely. Persistence.
Vote Karosis until dead.
I'm putting my vote in now so you all know where I stand. However, I don't want a speed lynch all the same. I want time to take stock and discuss what's going on - such as the Sacrosanct at Ishktar yesterday. I'd like to know what Tellan's thinking with regards to tile locations too. And I want to see what's happened with all the Hadjing around.
Also, I hate to be that guy who asks, but....um, is the Tax Collector come a-begging today? I need to know where I stand money-wise, 500 being a lot for me, sadly

Also, what do people think about that Dreadfather spiel PS posted at dusk? I need to go back and take a look at his character profile. I remember in the previous game there were similar posts - ala 'The Dreadfather is hunting' but I can't remember if anything came of it.
