I just had a crazy thought.

What if we did something crazy like all the top 9 posters form an on thread alliance and start speed lynching all the low posters until people start getting their mafia on. That would get peoples attention. Though that would be a dumb way to approach the game but this thread needs a serious jolt.






Yes that is pretty much what I was saying as a visual summary. It's sad that I'm the third highest poster yet PS has more posts than I do by a whole 10 posts. I just wanted to see what people thought of that idea. Putting 3 votes on Tellan seemed to jumpstart the thread so we can see what getting a few votes onto Tennes gets going. I'm going to try and finish my reread later when the distractions are a bit less and see if I dare put together a case on anyone. Being the first person to do that in a faction game is very dangerous as it makes the case builder a target by everyone from the faction that you are trying to get lynched. That alone is probably why the thread is so quiet. Noone wants to be the sacrifical lamb for night actions.

Funny how talking about the thread being dead then picking up kills the thread again

It's been that way this time the past 2 days (real days). Just the nature of player time zones.

Personally, before we do anything else, we need to get one lynch. Because we no lynched on day one and no one died night one this is pretty much day 1 part 2

Out of all these I can't remember a single thing Silanah or Tellan have said or done. Is that just me?


You are too busy spamming the thread to see what other people are saying, apparently?

Oh boy wait until he finds out he's the target now.

You folks keep bringing up the "he posted right after X happened...he must be (insert bad lynchable offense here)"

After the first incident I think people would be smart enough to cloak their actions. But maybe I am giving people too much credit.


So you are implying that you spend a lot of time lurking while messing with market stuff then come back later to actually post in the thread?

I don't think people posting will have too much of an indication of what they sell. I like the interaction on thread at the moment, there was even a vote on Tellan, not with a very convincing case, it suggests that someone has done a find of some sort the night before and knows someone is not on their faction


I take it Tellan is on your team, since accusing someone of being a finder in a faction game is like accusing them of being a killer in a TMDI 1 game?

Why doesn't anyone notice that there are very few players willing to randomly throw around their vote? Doesn't it make sense they might be privy to who their teammates are or have more knowledge in general than the rest of the thread?


Kind of what I'm thinking as well. Which would mean those same people throwing out votes just because aren't part of the Alliance that was setup, because even if they were sure of who their teammates were I don't see how they could be sure of who is on the team they allied with.

Look at that, Tellan came back on when he was the subject of a little pressure and now the thread is active again .

remove vote

vote Tennes

lets see if we can make this work again. Worst case is Tennes gets voted off, best case, he comes back from lurking and will contribute to the thread.


You have to be around to lurk, and I wasn't.

I honestly didn't know tennes was in this game


L2read Pathshaper Updates? I mean really. All you silly fucks have been talking about spreadsheets and miscoded Bazaar transactions, but you aren't taking notes of the actual thread?

I'm willing to give Emurlahn a bit of a pass as he mentioned that he would be extremely limited most of the first couple of days. But Tennes with all of 6 or so posts definately needs some scrutiny.



Thank you for that. And my issue should be resolved tomorrow. One more night of observation. (RL, not game)
I've been able to keep some idea of what has happened.
If it's any consolation my behind the scenes stuff has suffered just as badly.
Has anyone done any faction count math that they'd care to share? Taking into account the modkills?



General consensus seems to be 3 players per faction, plus one lonesome Qadi. Obviously, two or maybe just one very unlucky faction are down a member (or two).


Though P-S said the characters lived on, which means some people received their production / abilities, or something along those lines.


No, through the continuing story, like D'reks Romance of the 3 Kingdoms, characters live on even if they are out of the game, is what I got from that post.

Meh its a fair tactic to lynch low posters (one I'm normally fond of), I just haven't been around.

And no one is around.

But a quick question: where the fuck is the search function in the IP.Board skin?

I think we have some time but without the search function I can't tell you off the top of my head. We should have at least 12 hours left though if my very bad napkin math is right.
