dayum....the howls should be magnificent.

To those helping me mod, if the people who used an action that is on a timer (I think Fener's the only one that did) during Night 4 ask, because the text for Diplomacy says that all actions by and targetted at Republic City members will be stopped rather than fail you can tell them that the timer has not been reset. (i.e. Fener can use his kill again for Night 5)

"I don't get it. Why didn't Team Avatar just do a coordinated mass-reveal at the start of the game? You're basically a scum team allied with town, there would've really been no reason not to. "



D'rek giving up?

[Path-Shaper]

Seeing as Galain and Karosis are both incapacitated, it should be easy for the benders to lynch Galain, which boots Amon out of the game, given that he can't use his Desperation ability either. Asami Sato's still alive, and as of tomorrow night, she can kill Hiroshi Sato. Almost no one ever targets Osseric, so if that trend continues, she should have no problem becoming a full realized avatar, so Republic City could really turn this from what I thought was a likely Equalist win to a Republic City win.

Yeah yeah, what a shocker. That include Desperation? If not, can I make a provisional to use it automatically when at L-1?

Path-Shaper, on 28 December 2012 - 09:31 PM, said:

Unfortunately, it does include Desperation, as it's a bending ability, and the incapacitates, though effective to stop anyone from voting, were flavoured as anti-bender abilities.

Galain, on 28 December 2012 - 09:32 PM, said:

Meh, fine. I've gotten so bored of being resonable to a giant fucking flock of shouting sheeple anyways.

Poor Drek really has had a tough go at it. Ever since Spite symped the crap out of her, she's been in the crosshairs of Team Avatar. And though she didn't go down without a fight, she's likely dead today.

It's not really relevant, but D'rek couldn't use Desperation today anyways could she? "You may only use this ability after the fifth day cycle"

Uh, reference the whole "cannot vote" thing. I truly do not understand why Spite/Tapper!! is having such an issue with it. People on Day 2 who were told they could not vote did voted and their votes were not counted, question answered.

I guess Tapper planned to hide in the "I cannot vote" crowd. That possibility was taken from him, when the votes were simply not counted, as his vote would have counted.

I think I just tripped on what Tapper is saying. If Tapper's definition of "can not vote" == player cannot actually put a vote on the thread, whether it counts or not, it would have broken the game. Everybody could claim it and nobody would get lynched until well into the game and maybe not then depending upon how the factions were whittled down. "I can not vote" would have become this game's version of Sacrosanct.

I think.

Edit: That might make for an interesting game mech if combined with a couple of "you must vote for X" with "X" being chosen by the attacker.

Tis true, I had speed read her ability, and saw it as AS OF the fifth day cycle, but you're right, Desperation was meant to be used no earlier than Day 6.

It is so much easier that way. Then those occasions where your not an asshole people don't try to push things. Cause they know they got lucky.

or they think you're up to something. i will bet that you are the only person on this board ever lynched because you were nice.

Nothing I did so far really works out as planned, really - defend/deflect from Liosan to be targeted by metal benders, this little bit. ...snip...I clearly am a bit of tune about what arguments people listen to nowadays, when I tried to tech-talk about Galain.

Missed this the first time through. Spite/Tapper wanted the attention so that metalbenders would kill themselves on his passive. That didn't work because I knew that Liosan was equalist, so I simply ignored anything Spite said that was even close to being rational and kept screaming "Kill Lio! Kill Lio!" (I wonder how that would have worked if I hadn't thought Spite == EM and therefore thought I could goad him into going postal?)

Moltke's "No battle plan survives contact with the enemy". First Ruse gets lynched on a silly day 1 'reason'. Then Fener killed OE, who would have been the logical day 2 discussion, leaving a vacuum on thread. And nobody can fill a vacuum with hot air and drivel better than moi.

Night 1 was almost a bigger disaster for equalists, besides the Ruse lynch.


Karosis (Feathered Hat Man - Bubba): Stalk - Galain
Spite (Lieutenant - Tapper): Kali Sticks - Karosis

Had Spite not incapacitated Karosis, my passive would have fried him.

And the Night 2 provisional changes of Osseric and I, at Tennes' urging, killed TS and left Lio alive.

So, D'rek I'm sorry I screwed you over with the PM dump. But it could have and should have been worse.

And I for one plan on blaming it all on Khell. Oh, and GH, for being so bend over backwards fair that it got him killed. But mostly Khell.

[Gnaw]

Was just looking at VCs for various factions. If Galain/D'rek/Amon is killed tonight, the RC faction has met theirs. They could go rogue on you.

Emurlahn - Lin Beifong - Tattersail
Fener - General Iroh - Sixty
Kaschan - Tenzin - Starling -

have no further incentive. What if they decide to kill Korra just for shits and grins? I don't think that's at all likely to happen; but it is possible.

You should never log into someones alt to read PM's. If you want to rifle though PM's (and post them here while your at it) then log into PS and rifle through the PMs there. That is and how it should be done.

I can think of a couple of other people who have been lynched for the too nice bit. Silencer hate the to smooth that got applied to him. But yeah the reputation is two sided.

I don't understand why Karosis hammered Lio. Did he think day had timed out? Or is there strategic element that's going completely over my head?

If I had to guess. It would be to put himself into the Republic or Avatar camp in the minds of those people. He knew that Amon would jump so he probably thought that he was safe.

Resignation – You may only perform this action after three night cycles have passed. You may do this by announcing the following on thread during a Day Cycle – “I have failed as Republic City’s Police Chief. Captain Saikhan, please take over.” You leave Republic City faction and become an independent, Captain Saikhan becomes the new Chief of Police and gains all your abilities, and you are given a new set of abilities and victory conditions.

It is not really independent. It is in fact joining another faction. My VC's are harder now than they was before in my opinion. I survived five days and nights to get this role. Hopefully my guard blocks recruits and other stuff those guys can do.

Right now my provisional is to Guard Both Anomandaris and Galain.

Anomandaris and Galain

Bitch, bitch, whine whine. He doesn't realize that he now has the power to make it basically impossible for the Equalists to do anything. And he doesn't realize that the immunity to Kali Sticks is actually really good. If Spite had hit him prior to becoming indie, he would have been dead. Now he won't even be incapacitated.

Anyway, the independent roles were not made to have easier VCs. They were made more powerful than an average role, and harder to win by. *shrugs*

Anyway, guess you can't make everyone happy!
