Vote Silchas Ruin



The only content he provided was the joke vote and a few one liners in response to me. Since then he hasn't done anything to engage in conversation. I am not sure where I place Desra and Shadow at the moment. One of them could be a symp muddying the waters. I want to focus on the people that don't want to stand out and coast along.


The only conversations going on to engage in when I was around yesterday was either meta to the threat of modkill and the pissing match between Desra and Shadow which I found ridiculous but had nothing to share that wouldn't be parroting someone else. And now I had 15 minutes to check the thread before I leave for my day, which resulted in no more insight than the fact that you have a massive rage boner that you're directing my way today.. Anyhow, that's my thoughts.

No shit. I thought I'd have a hard time getting caught up.
Edit:Finished sentence.

Yeah, this hasn't been a fantastic day 1. I count myself amongst the fails, don't worry. Just been too busy the past couple of days, and the rest of the week is likely to be the same, alas.

I'll have to place a vote down in about twenty minutes, as there's a chance I won't be able to make it on again until well past timeout.

Checking in. Will have time to read the thread in about two hours.


It's been well past two hours. Any input?

Personally Shadow strikes me as having been wilfully stupid at times. That whole thing with...Karatallid? really seemed like they were taking things too much out of context. There's a fine line between questioning in order to stir things up/move the thread along, and on the other hand just plain muddying the waters. That spat took up almost as much space as the Desra vs Shadow/Silchas one, but seemed far more pointless.

Although a scum who's involved themselves in two protracted pissing matches on day 1 is either very unlucky, or just not scum :angry: Then again, the Desra one was not of Shadow's making, but only really began when Silchas also piped up about not having read the entire series.





Gah! I've just been reading over the thread and realised that I mistook Shadow for Atrahal. It was Atrahal who was questioning Kara at the beginning, not Shadow. So in fact Shadow has not been as embroiled in day 1 hijinks as I had thought. I'm surprised nobody called me on this - I guess people are paying as much close attention to the thread as I did :)

It's been a very slow day.

Which I find pretty odd given that every time I've been on there have been at least 4/5 anons watching the thread.

That is bullshit. This post shouldn't even count.

Ok, this actually makes my decision easier, knowing that Shadow hasn't been putting themselves as 'out there' as much as I thought they had. I'm going with the 'I haven't read the entire series' signalling theory as the best thing currently around. In that scenario Silchas Ruin is the symp signalling to the killer Shadow that they're relatable in some pretty unique way amongst the players here. Shadow has one of the higher post counts but most of that is from the to-and-fro with Desra, mostly having to react rather than instigate - arguably, anyway.

Vote Shadow

I find that somewhat rich coming from you. Seven posts perhaps, but what content?

What do you think about say, Karatallid?

Particularly regarding this accusation by Atrahal:

Parroting the OP in order to look useful and insightful.


He could also be accused of trying too hard to appear useful while providing no content with his unnecessary D-day calculations.

Also these posts jumped out at me while looking at Kara, just as being a bit unnecessary, and odd.

but seriously Kara, don't be discouraged by the oppositional methods of a few. It can be an effective but annoying strategy for sparking the flow of information and ideas, a great mutual exchange of thought

I prefer to ask questions, and trust in the integrity of my fellow players to provide the insight that makes the experience so enriching for everyone


oops, exhausted my BS quota, now what am I gonna do?

This is a ludicrously bad case.

Sadly everyone's made a pathetic effort to contribute, and thus yet again anyone actually being vocal and trying to play the game becomes a target.

Is this directed at me? I already said what I thought of the Atra-Kara debate, only I got your name confused with Atrahal's (and then corrected myself just a few posts above). I thought that Atrahal was being dumb, almost wilfully so, with the part of the sentence of Kara's which he took out of context. And personally, I found those D-day calculations quite useful, as I almost never bother to do it for myself.

Anyways, I'm already late for a meeting. Like I said before, there's a chance I may not make it back anytime soon, sorry about that, can't be helped.

It's awful, I agree, but I don't see better currently. Doesn't mean it's not right anyway, though perhaps for the wrong reasons :angry: Really out now.

No it was aimed at cast.

Though for that matter, it's odd with so little to read you actually managed to make that mistake. I thought your analysis was wishy washy.

There's a fine line between pushing things and just taking things out of context and muddying the waters? Quote it then. Where do you think he's doing that? Do you think it's unfair to accuse Kara of trying too hard to be helpful?

You say he think he was genuinely helpful with the D-day calculations, because you didn't do them. Just because you hadn't done them, doesn't mean it's not a weird thing to post though. Should town really need that pointed out? I mean, at this stage as well? It's not relevant at all at this stage.

Maybe there'd be better if people were bothered to actually play.

It's great getting to hop onto a train that is simultaneously decried though, just cause no one else has presented anything better for you to do, lots of info for town there.
