Well, not a whole lot. I'm kinda suspicious of Rashan, and maybe Fanderay, they both seem to have gone off the deep end. But nothing extremely concrete.

Hello everyone my name is Amee.
I am a sexaholic.

Hi Amee responds the crowd.

Don't get me wrong I'm not ashamed of all my lovers. It's just that I have a commitment problem. I may love hard and fast with few words between us or we go nice and slow tenderly sharing sweet nothing's all day long.

Some I will remember fondly and long to rejoin their embrace. While others I can't wait to part ways. And then there are those that are so vile that I feel obligated to share my many trysts in front of my peers.

Now don't get me wrong. I am not ashamed of what I've done. I just wish I could have continued loving each and everyone of you in turn in the shadows were my love belongs. But seeing the frustration you all seem to feel and the guidance I can provide I proudly stand before you all to give you direction.

A fortuitous turn of events landed me in the embrace of none other than Amon himself (really a her but that is neither here nor there). Now I suspected that this might be a major player but how should I approach him? Should I be honest and therefore lose any hope of gleaming more from such a vile creature? Or do I feign brotherhood hoping to learn more?

Young of this world I may be I have seen enough to know kinship will most likely bear the most fruit. Hence I spun a web of lies and got Amon to admit to his namesake? Ah!!!! Could I gleam more? I spun more tails of lies and half truths to draw me closer still. But alas this vile creature was wary of those who might steal me away from him though I was never his to begin with.

All he would admit to was that D'riss was his recruit. No bragging of his future roles. No mention of his other alts. No matter how convincing I may be he felt that info was too sacred to share.

So though some may think Rashan may be the serial killer I know that Ultima is Amon. I say we all band together and remove a known scum and let those with night kills take care of those that can hurt them at night as well.

Vote Ultima

Edit: Bold Stupid phone



This sounds real to me. Its easily testable, and would provide us with either Amon or a liar.If it turns out to be Amon we have a recruit as well. We only have 12 hours to go so i am down to check this.

vote ultima

I will not be around for lynch. Don't dally with the hammer if it looks like ultima is going to be lynched. Remember at L-1 he can redirect a lynch and lives another day. So hopefully he is not on if he is the chosen lynch. I haven't looked at the amon role post since last week, but I think I remember seeing that somewhere. I can go check.

That is, indeed, easily testable. And since this is very day 1-ish, it's also somewhat of a starting point... despite being slightly suspicious? But yeah, I don't think someone would go out of their way to post something like that when it can easily be disproven with just one lynch (or two? one, right?).

Well, mostly for curiosity's sake, and for no better reason (because there are none, ugh)

Out of everything so far that post rings most true. I did enjoy the full analysis of each player above.

Someone comes on with a weird long rambling post and acquires no less than three apparent drive-bys for their train they're trying to start? Fuck that. Something fishy going on there, my vote is staying put.

Quote


Amon (Equalists Faction)
You are the charismatic and mysterious leader of a revolutionary group of non-benders known as the Equalists. Your ultimate goal is to introduce equality for all by ridding the world of benders. A nimble and stealthy fighter, you are fearless in facing your opponents, regardless of their bending skills and abilities.
Claiming to be a non-bender to whom the spirits granted the ability to remove a person's bending permanently, a power previously demonstrated only by the Avatar, you have gained the confidence and support of many people with the same ideals. In actuality, you are a prodigious Northern Water Tribe blood bender, son of the escaped crime boss, Yakone. Alongside your younger brother, the former councilman, Tarrlok, you were shaped by Yakone to be a tool for his revenge against the Avatar.

Skills

Before using Desperation ability:

Remove Bending (Night Action) – You remove a character’s bending ability. They will lose all of their abilities. This does not work on characters without bending abilities. The removed abilities will not be available to them unless they are returned to them via another ability. The first bender you do this to will remain in their faction, the second will become an Equalist. From then on, a coin will be flipped. If it flips heads, the person whose bending you took away will become an Equalist. If it flips tails, they will remain in their faction.

Bulletproof (Passive Night Action) – If you are targeted by a Night Kill, it will not be successful. This ability will regenerate after the next night cycle, but only regenerates twice (so you have a total of 3 BPs).

Lynchproof (Passive Day Action) – If you are lynched, it will not be successful. This ability does not regenerate.

Unmask (Passive Day/Night Action) – You may only use this ability once. Your brother Tarrlok has told members of Republic City and Team Avatar that you are Noatakk, but you have a fake scar on your face to ‘prove’ that you were attacked by a fire bender when you were a kid, which has been the reason for your crusade against benders all along. If you are lynched, and your lynchproof has already been used, or if you are targeted by a successful kill ability, you may choose to trade places with one of the Equalists you have recruited using your Remove Bending ability. You will take over their alt, they will take over your alt, and be lynched or killed while you survive. Once you have been unmasked, you may use your Remove Bending ability twice per night cycle but any remaining BPs will be removed. Please provide a list of three players in order of preference who you would like to switch places with should this ability be triggered.

Desperation (Day Action) – You may only use this ability once. You may only use this ability after the fifth day cycle. To trigger this ability, when a lynch train is at L-1, you must say the following on thread “I don’t like where this is going!” You must then PM me your lynch target. Once someone has reached enough votes for a lynch, you will use your secret blood bending ability to take control of all voters and their votes will be redirected to your lynch target. You should only use this ability as a very last resort, because your character (not your alt) will be outted on thread as having bending abilities, so the Equalists will turn on you. You will become an independent role, be given new abilities, and it will be much more difficult for you to win the game.

Once Desperation has been used:

Remove Bending (Night Action) – You remove a character’s bending ability. They will lose all of their abilities. This does not work on characters without bending abilities. The removed abilities will not be available to them unless they are returned to them via another ability. This will no longer act as a recruiting ability for the Equalists.

Ice Bending (Night Action) – You shoot ice shards at your chosen target. This is a night kill ability, but is subject to preventative measures (heals, guards, etc.).

Water Funnel (Night Action) – When someone fire bends at you, you bend water into a funnel that shoots you up into the air and out of harm’s way. This acts as a Bulletproof, but you must activate the ability, and it can only be used once. If a NK isn’t directed at you while this ability is active, the ability will not be used. It will not block Equalist weapons, but will block any bending related NKs.

Victory Conditions

If you remain in the Equalists faction: Korra must die. All benders must have their bending ability removed, or be dead.

If you leave the Equalists: You must survive.



I was right. If he is around he can redirect lynch. That's just delaying the inevitable though.

Well I logged on like.. 20 min ago or so.. but now that you mention this, it looks like the sort of thing easily contrived by those with off-thread comms? And so suddenly, a bunch of votes? At the same time, scum wouldn't be THAT obvious. Unless they're that stupid.

I'm second-guessing that as well, but I'm not so sure about Gait either. He's just so fucking obvious, but then those who attract that much attention are almost never scum, are they?

So your idea is to go after they guy who is acting so shittacular that its obvious he is asking for a lynch rather than a easily testable theory that will net us either a major power role or a liar? great plan.

^Eh the Gait vote isn't that great either. I'm willing to put my vote back on Ultama, but only if there's nothing besides the Gait vote, and with 10+ hours left, maaayybe something will pop up.

In addition, it's more the manner of the post pushing for an Ultama vote - it may be a different sort of weird/distracting than Gait's shit is, but it's still weird/distracting (and a little too convenient).

It's not a theory, it's a statement with no basis. Someone came online, said 'Ultima is bad because I said so' and bailed. And yes, Gait may be too obvious, nevertheless his interaction with me was on par with Rhyll's interaction with the previous Bendal Home. And then there's the fact that Ultima was the alt that Gait nominated for his so-called joke vote. Something's not right. In word, to all of the above: NOPE.

Is it distracting though? Gait's barely been around since then, and he started his crap on dead thread. That strikes me as more of anxious scummy behaviour. Although I don't know if scum is quite the right word in this game, but hopefully the meaning is clear enough.

So your idea is to trust a random person with a rambling long post where they claim they made a lover connection to Amon and Amon told them who the recruit was, and that we should vote for who they say, while Amon spends more time recruiting?

Our best option, at this time, is to vote night. (Please call me scum without reading the rest of the post, that will be quite helpful)

Town factions can't win with scum factions around. Scum factions can't win with the other scum faction around. The SK can't win with the scum around. There should be plenty of fucking NK's to pass about to hit both Ultima and Gait, as well as guards/finds/crazyrandomshit to curtail their power, right?

Amon has already used his lynchproof but he still has his lynch redirect. He moved into the alt of Bendal Home before the Matrix Reloaded, because I did a shadow of Bendal Home and I learned what power he used, and it was his recruit power. That was night 4 which means he very well could have another recruit besides the one he 'slid' into, and all his BP's are removed with the slide.

I see what you're sayng about Gait. The way I look at it is If we lynch gait we get a crap shoot. If we lynch Ultama we get either Amon or a liar in pran chole and we come out ahead. I see more upside with ultama. Voting night. No. If we don't get a lynch meh, that's fine. but voting night is asinine. Then the game is basically decided by power players with big night actions. On thread interaction doesn't mean as much. I don't like that.

How, exactly, is voting night keeping Amon from recruiting?

We need to hit Amon, without letting the Amon role dictate any more actions. You are willingly voting for someone who can, just before they are lynched, say on thread that 'they don't like where this is going' then send a message to PS to choose an alt they want to be lynched instead of them. The Amon role, by itself, is more powerful than my three roles put together. I shudder to think of what other roles are hanging about on the evil teams.

Regardless if you believe Gait or Ultama is Amon, attempting to lynch Amon today is a mistake because it gives Amon and his team a 'free' kill, and he will need to be killed tonight anyway. See what I'm saying?

It isn't. Voting night is keeping us from giving Amon a free kill, while the teams on thread make a sort of gentlemans agreement to fucking slaughter/guard/whatever Gait and Ultama tonight. Only ONE faction out of four (not counting SK) wants to keep Amon alive. There should be vigs and guards and NK's around to do them in tonight since after their slide at the end of day 4 they are BPless.

Or we could just let day timeout without getting a lynch, as it seems to be doing now. That would probably be the best solution anyway since it would allow more people to come on and hopefully put in night actions.

Well, the whole Ultama thing seems interesting. I figure we need to try to lynch regardless of his ability, otherwise, as Tulas said, we're just letting NAs decide it. It has been proven that there are some people who have next to no abilities, and based on what we have seen of the deaths so far, there seems to be more powerful abilities on the scum teams.

I should be around before Day times out, but I'm going to bed, and am on vacation, so I may sleep in. Just in case that's what I do:
