I'm definitely (still) in favour of lynching Tiam for the knowledge/certainty.

I would also like to point out, however, that Fener yesterday was the only one I recall who claimed the mods confirmed his vote for the choice of furies to enhance. That, in addition to his cozy back-and-forth with Tiam has me suspicious that he is the master behind these new alts. ie if Tiam turns up Vord, I suspect Fener might be a queen gaining control of generic new vord alts and we should look that way next. I still want to vote Tiam today to verify that she is Vord, though, and see what other info the CF brings us.



IF I am right though, and the infested tiles can each generate new generic Vord, our best defense at the moment is to keep them bottled on the left by reinforcing Elinarch. I don't know how the blue line works with moving and attacking across in relation to the Vord, but it's at least worth a shot to keep Elinarch blocked as much as possible until we have any reason to defend somewhere else. Book-wise, the blue line there is an ocean so it'd make a lot of sense if attacks across it are not possible, which helps defend it even more.

Then again, in the books the Vord randomly showed up in Kalare somehow... so that might not be a permanent solution.




Wasn't Fener supposed to slow/cut down the infestation at Shuar? What happened with that then?

And what makes you think the Vord can regenerate? Have I missed something to do with that? I wouldn't want to not lynch Tiam just because of the suspicion that she might come back.

I was all for believing Tiam yesterday, especially with Fener backing him up but now with Rashan appearing it all seems like a hoax. I am back to being suspicious of those two.




Watch out, if you backpedal any faster you might trip and fall. Having made that witty remark, I do agree with the Fener suspicion (and I admit I also wanted to give Tiam the benefit of the doubt), but I would prefer a Tiam lynch first I think.

We need a damn lynch. Recent comments have been excellent I think. I also dont understand the revealing, faction games arent really a good place for spontaneous info sharing.,.

vote tiam

This is what I was thinking for our other new alt. There isn't any other super fury that it could be, so the new alts have to be linked to infesting tiles. Obviously, that means that we need to hunt the queen after we verify that Tiam is Vord, but it is a very likely outcome at this point. Well done to Tiam though. There was definitely some skepticism to the reveal, but it worked to buy them a day. No longer.

Vote Tiamatha

Popping in quickly, as I'm abouty to go to bed after a full long weeknd of Canadalandday celebrations. I'll get on and vote tomorrow, when i'm sober, coherent, and don't want to sleep (as desperately)

If every day a new alt will pop up, we ain't gonna win this game by lynching. OTOH, killing's not so easy due to the HP system. Because of that first priority needs to be to eliminate whomever's allowing the spawning of new alts.

and with that, i wish everyone a good night

For clarification on this issue refer to SH once you're dead/game is over. Best I can do, sorry.

I'd like to claim to be able to type that fast, alas no. I took Tiam at her word and plumbed for information. As did others. The master behind them is more likely to have kept quiet whilst posting as her so worth looking into who wasn't posting who should have been around.

The infested tile = alt spawned may be the mechanic involved however it may not be the likely one. Narash was infested at the start of Day 1, Tiam appeared Day 2. Shuar was infested start of Day 3, Rashan appeared start of Day 3. The timing is inconsistent, if anything I'd suspect Tiam was spawned by a different mechanic and that one of the alts starting the game was the one from Narash being infested.

I see now. I now do not believe Tiam is anything to do with the Vord.

I know it is too early to tell but we cannot keep going through days without lynches especially when we are against the clock and infestation.

Vote Tiam

Let's shed some light



Korbas. I never liked cheerleaders. If wasting time was Tiamatha's goal then lynching today is wasting more time. I'm fine with lynching her unless somebody can make a good case for a puppeteer.
But your rah rah style, 'revealing' your faction, and doing a fine job of leading the thread where you want them feels just like what she was doing.


How do you find that being the 6th vote or something on a train is leading the thread?

Day one Fener got pressure for that "keeper" comment. Day two Tiam is spawned and Fener talks to him like an old buddy. It looked believable, I've never read the books. So I went with the flow, just like many others. Now day 3 and we have Rashan, so that whole thing yesterday was pure bullshit.

I am only half willing to vote Fener because he could turn out to be Octavian. I am one alt among 20 or so with no real information. We know one team are talking off thread, the ones with the communication, we know one team are doing actions off thread, we know almost nothing of the Vord. To be fair I'm fucking bored with this game so far. Nothing seems to be happening, most people are not really making an effort on thread, maybe cause they have cool abilities or are doing all their talking off thread, or have multiple alts to manage and find that staying/laying low is the way forward.

I don't know and I don't really care at the moment. So here is what I know, Nimander is not Octavian, because Octavian attacked Nimander night one, so he may have spotted something in Nimander that made him think Vord. I have an ability that reduces Great fury counters but I can only use it once every 3 dawns. I have another ability that adds fortifications to each tile that holds a First Aleran Player. Octavian attacked me last night. That's about it, I think I could be a powerful player, I have a very high HP, good movement, good attack power, but my furies are locked at the moment. The Vord need to have 3 tiles infested before I become even more powerful than I currently am.




I just want to a see a CF.



So, you're using an ability to give each First a temporary +1 boost to the uninfected tile they're standing on at the moment? Way to point out your supposed team as targets.Were they on an infested tile this might be useful. At this point in the game, less so.

Korbas is playing worse than me and that's saying something.

I will put a vote on Tiam if needed because crap, no lynch so far, but Korb is my #1 target.

By my count we have the number of posts from our lowest contributors as follow:

0 Rashan
3 Barghast
9 Okaros
10 Alkend
10 Mockra
12 Hood's Path
12 Kedeviss
12 Pran Chole

Okaros, Alkend, Hoods Path and Pran Chole were on my failed train, so, we have at least one alt master/puppet amongst them. Something to bear in mind for the next day.

I had no idea what was going on with that reveal (no book knowledge), so I went along with others. As I will now for the lynch.

You sillies! Can't a soul get some rest over an extended weekend?


A good worker never blames his tools. But then I guess you guys are not great workers. It's not my fault if the majority is not even bothered to vote for the fury they want!
