ugh, this will be painful.

Can we spend the entire day figuring out who the queen is to shut these two mofos up?


Seems like a fake/forced reaction to the musical duo, IMO... of the group that match the vord alts' posting times Lio is now my top suspect for another vord.


go fuck yourself with a shovel. I'm at work and can only post sporadically and in short bursts.


See, when I'm at work and busy, the few posts I manage to make I put actual content into. I don't waste time at work posting stupid pithy replies to vord alts. So that just sounds like a lame made-up excuse now...

Now this looks like a great catch to me. See Ultama what can be accomplished if you put in a bit more effort than "let's go after the low posters"? This is the standout suspect so far for me. I won't put down a vote yet because I want to see if Mockra comes on to say anything, but I'll definitely be around long before timeout to place my vote.


@ the mods:

Are you going to refreeze before or after day's end?


Go fuck yourself. My vote on Barghast was specifically stated "for lack of anything better." MO found something better. I switched.

And what happened to all your certainty about getting a lynch before freezing?

Everybody seems to be getting welded to Alkend CFed Vord therefore he must be the person whose vote didn't count on the day 1 and day 3 trains.

That may be the case, but the odds are against it.


I am not and said as much earlier.


I'm sure you're not. You're not welded to any particular idea that I can see. Other than trying to out FAs.

You're scummy as hell. I would love to switch to you. And will do so if enough others go that way.

Should the FA spend there time killing Tiam and Rashan, or use there abilitys trying to kill the queen? according to the count there was 5 FA, should they kill off the confirmed vord?





Both, if possible. I know it's easy to say, harder to do. I think Tiam and Rashan need to be killed as often as possible. Why did Tiam go through that whole act when they first appeared if not to buy a day? Or should I say, to buy enough time to put in a dawn action or something similar. Just because they're acting stupid now doesn't mean they're harmless by any means. And who knows, maybe the spawning is finite too?

Hmm, it's possible, but I have a different theory. I think each Vord alt increases the infestation counter of its current location by +1, but either the Keepers or the queen(s) increase it by more. So on day 1 the/a queen/keeper moved to Shuar, making it increase by 5 at the start of day 2. By the end of night 2 we had Alkend, Tiam, Rashan and possibly other vord alts, most if not all on Shuar, so that's easily at least +3 infestation point but it could've been more since Shuar was already at 8/11 (it could have increased to 15/11 for all we know, but once it went past 11 it just became infested). As we saw from the listing of players by faction+location this morning, there was one vord alt on the Elinarch at the start of today, and the Elinarch went up by +1 infestation.


IMO, it would make sense for the keepers to increase the infestation counter a lot, as that is pretty much what they do - they're spider-like creatures that expand and maintain the croach. But I'm not ruling it out as a possible queen ability to have a high infestation increase, either.

This sounds fairly realistic to me. My other guess is that they may have to choose between passive abilities or attacks, too, like furycrafters; they can probably choose to increase the creep or to attack.


I think that's why there's different types of vord spawn alts. I'm speculating completely here, but could be something like this:

Takers - low health, weak or no attack, but have recruit ability
Keepers - low/medium health, weak attack, but can infest more or do some other support ability
Mantises - high health, high attack, no other abilities (those "high"s in relation to other vord, but could still be low compared to most aleran roles)
Vordknights (if they are a thing in this game) - medium health, high attack, better move rate due to flight

Bit of explaination - each box represents an hour interval. Numbers in the box are the proportion of their posts occurring in that hour.

Holy shit.

Lots to get through and read. My initial thoughts are that Alkend not respawning and being dead dead mean that his vote would count. I can see Tiam and Rashan's vote being powerless but not a main player.

Well you don't seem to play much at all, really.



<< Waaaah I'm so busy at work let me suggest to everyone else that they "spend the whole day figuring out who the queen is" because that is not an asinine suggestion and I are so helpful >>

So aggressive...I admit that I thought we'd have more time than we currently do, and that Blend would have to refreeze before day timed out. That doesn't seem as likely now.

I would really like to get a lynch today so we can ponder the results over the weekend. We've got maybe 5 hours to get one.

That requires the people posting to make a choice: Gait, Ryl, Trake, Demelain, and NG.

It also requires some of the lurkers to participate.


I am voting Mockra because I think he screwed up and predicted that Tiamatha would simply respawn.

I will vote Korbas for the screwy military chatter, being a douchebag, declaring that Tiamatha could not possibly be Vord, being a douchebag, all the First Aleran talk without actually proving any of it, and general all around scummy douchebagism.

I am willing, in order to get a lynch, to vote low posters Barghast and Okaros. (Pran Chole, Hood's Path, Kedeviss, and Mockra fall into that category. But Barghast is especially annoying because he's got 3 fucking posts.)

I am more than willing to listen to cases made on others.

I will not follow an OMGUS vote on Liosan.

Among those mentioned, I will only vote Mockra.


Vote Mockra


I kinda like how Korbas is playing and I think we have enough info to not need a low-poster lynch.

Oh. Much as it pains me to say considering it is whacking moles: a lynch of either Tiam or Rashan would maybe tell us if they respawn with different roles.
