Not gonna lie, the severity of Spite's response to the pressure on Lio (which hasn't even translated to votes really) seems a bit dodgy.

I feel like either Galain or Spite or Lio is an equalist.

Agreed.

Interesting that Karosis has come back saying his action failed - because his target had some kind of protection, or was it part of the vote block ability? If the same is true for Liosan, then I would side with it being part of the vote block ability I think.

If it's part of the vote block ability, then could that be connected to the lack of a scum NK?

[Karosis]

The not being able to vote I'm thing it has to do with being Chi blocked. Having read up a bit on the Avatar wiki. It says that every time someone was Chi blocked they we for the most part paralyzed. So I'm thinking that blend is using Chi blocking as a "guard" type power in this game.

Liosans over reaction to it has me wondering if he has any experience playing in high TDMI games. Most stuff going on in a high TDMI game is going on behind the mod curtain. You accept it and play on, you don't fucking get into a pissing match with PS in the game thread. If I had a vote today it would more than likely be on him. NOOB

Spites reaction to the case on Liosan sound a hell of a lot like a symp trying look sympiish to me. Way to over the top. It looks more like his is trying pounce on the opportunity to set up a lynch on Liosan. IMMHO

[Tulas Shorn]

I've noticed that Tennes is backing up Galain pretty strongly. Moreover, being vote blocked implies having bending ability, a fact that makes Liosan less likely to be an equalist (unless Amon has bending ability. But I doubt that Amon would be acting as Liosan would be and doubt Amon could be vote blocked). Galain is committed to the attack on Liosan (backing off would look suspicious), but I suspect the reasons for the attack was trying to direct the thread toward someone not on his equalist team.

Vote Galain

How does being vote blocked imply that they can bend? We still don't know if chi block == vote block. Chi block could just be a guard for all we know.

Chalk that up as one more defending Lio.

[Silanah]

Karo, if you can't vote, can you put a vote down to show that it won't count? Or is it that you can vote but it wont help lynch?

I wont quote the PM from PS as per the rules, but I will put them to the test.

Vote Spite

if I get mod killed I will be most put out.

You do realise that chi blocking should work on benders and non benders alike right? You seem to be under a false assumption.

Yeah, see, that's what I was thinking. That's the part which makes me suspect Lio most. Karo less so because he's been quite up front about it while Lio has so far had exactly one word on the matter and then proceeded to have a go at PS.

Vote Galain

? Not sure how being vote blocked implies a bending ability?

[Tennes]

Hehe, I see I wasn't the only one to wonder

[Fener]

Theory: was TS responsible for the vote blocking? Perhaps that's what makes him think it only works on benders (town).

Seems like a scum ability, since they're outnumbered and lynching is a tool for town to find the scum; therefore, an ability that makes it difficult to lynch primarily benefits scum.

What do you have to say for yourself?

Ah, I see, it's specifically equalist. Hmm. But were you informed you were chi blocked, or are you making that assumption?

[Tennes]

Also, if we go by that wiki, it says it disables their abilities. I wouldn't count voting as an 'ability'. Although you did say your action failed too. But then again, as someone already said earlier, it seems like a powerful ability if it can do all that. Ruse, who was a chi-blocker, had the feel of a minor Equalist player to me (he didn't even have a name, did he?)

I'm making the guess on how the game is setup by blend.

[Atrahal]

in the cartoon, there are quite a lot of nameless chi blockers, they are essentially amons foot soldiers and one leader dude.

It works on non-benders as well, though. According to the wiki it just paralyzes them--and this makes sense to me that it would prevent people from voting as well, if they can't be part of a lynch mob because they're paralyzed.

In that case we have 2 people on thread who have claimed to have been chi blocked. I now think that this is a pretty safe connection to make.

We already lynched one (Ruse).

That means that either:

scum team started with 3 chi blockers + amon. I think having a 5th person on their team is unlikely, since equalists = scum pretty much and 5 / 16 seems a bit high for game balance IMO.

or

one of karo / lio is lying. More likely lio since he has been less open about the ability, but karo could also be the chi blocker lying to us right now. But that scenario has so many conditionals in it that it's much less likely than lio lying, I think.
