After catching up, Ryll has shot up with his quote cases. It does look like he is pushing a lynch elsewhere when he had only received one vote. Reading up on his case against Liosan I was ready to vote Liosan, reading up on his case against other players and I find that he is creating wifom for when he is lynched. I think this is our best choice for Vord Queen.

Then you have this

It tells us he is tired and going to bed but then Rashan and Tiam make an appearance. I am not convinced.

I think I'd prefer a Shelly, although if Ryll gets closer I'll switch there for the lynch - I'll be back approx. 15min before Day times out although I'll expect it to be Night already by then.

Ryll has done an admirable job of contributing today, but all it did was make me wonder why it took a few votes for him to do so.


Some of that is because I just didn't have that much I wanted to post before. But it's also because I wanted to lie low. Partly for meta reasons, but mostly because this is not a town/scum game, this is a faction game. The more you stick your head out, the more the other faction knows about you. So yes, I was purposefully lying low. In fact, originally, I was just going to read up on the various players without posting my thoughts about each one, but I got carried away with the enjoyment of doing some mafia-related detective work for the first time this game.

It looks like that because that's exactly what I'm doing Korbas. I didn't do all those for shits and giggles only. I am pushing a lynch elsewhere, on someone who in my view will turn out to be the Vord Queen. You say that some of the cases (I would say analyses, but whatever) sound like wifom - well of course they do! I'm looking for one player, of course all but one of the analyses will be wrong. It's about selecting the one which seems most likely or the most concrete out of those.

As for Rashan and Tiam, are you fucking kidding me? Yesterday I started posting at, what, probably around 1 or 2pm my time? I wasn't around for a while after that and then I came back in the evening, meaning to stick around till about midnight. As it was, it was almost 4am when I finished. Now with what you say, you're implying that I stuck around after that and started posting as either Rashan or Tiam or both from around 5.30am. Sorry, but I am not so dedicated to this game as to get zero hours of sleep before work the next day.

Their posting times over the course of the game are a better match for Tiam/Rashan. Ryll isn't far behind, but then so is Liosan

You stayed up until 4am seriously? And you think an extra 1 hour would be too zealous? I'm in bed at 10pm roughly, maybe 11pm at a push, on a work night, no game is worth losing precious sleep over. It's not like those two stayed around and posted loads either, just enough to appear at a different time.

Okay maybe you put it down to tiredness but this is a bad catch up on Pran. They've posted a lot more than what you make out and you pulled up easily defensible quotes.

Pran Chole.

I found very little here. Almost 60 posts I think and very little of note. In fact, the most standout post was an early one:

This one below. Why does Fener being a furywielder make him necessarily high-level faction, in a game in which the majority of players have access to some furies at least? It strikes me that the only ones who might think like this are those with no fury abilities of their own to call upon.

There's 7 anons reading atm, I'd be interested in the other 4s thuoghts on the situation before the hammer if you don't mind? I'll self hammer at t-2 unless someone has a persuasive reason that could even be worth bothering with. I'm out the game, face it, take what knowledge you can and move on. I have other abilities too you know...


All the fury abilities are similar. The OP is very clear about that. So you're claiming Fury wielder, that means you're probably high level faction. I have no way of knowing what faction you are but its day 1, I'll take the risk that you're not in mine. Unless you broke ground with some crazy non-fury related ability I see no reason why a derail could possibly be a good thing at this point.




Then nothing to note really until today. Think Monok is worth placing a vote on for a couple of the reasons I highlighted.

For me it is a bit OMGUS but Pran chole stands out, they would have been really low but have picked up the pace posting wise. Now do other people get faction vibes or non faction vibes?


Of course I was low, I struggled getting my brain around the game and so lurked the first two cycles and then I was away for a week for the holidays. I picked up my shit when I got back.

I'm hesitant to believe such a huge reveal as Emu's, but if he is telling the truth then lynching Korbas won't work anyways.

remove vote.

Since we now need a new target I'll give you my bullet points on my threat list, updated for most recent events:
-Monok, has been in to post once or twice a day, enough to seem useful but not enough to really be involved in discussion. He was quick to take credit for 2 vord CFs, but was happy to let other people make the cases and drive the lynches. To me that reads as a Vord covering his ass. He knows his faction members and can drop their names into his suspicions and then toot his own horn if/when they die but can't really be attached to any violent behaviour.
-Okaros, just jumped up because of that knee jerk, 2 vote reveal.
-Galain, because of subsistence posting and general slyness.
-Ryll, because of the tone of some of his posts.

Those 4 are my primary suspects. Obviously Ryll and Galain are just instinctive suspicions, Galain is higher than Ryll because he's now been implicated by Okaros as being involved with him. However, I will be putting my vote on my primary suspect.



And that's it. So I look forward to Pran's promise of more...

View PostPran Chole, on 08 July 2013 - 09:47 PM, said:

I was in the middle of my quote case when a big thunderstorm knocked out all the power in my neighborhood. I'm posting on my friend's phone, as soon as power is back I will be also.



Sorry, this one was a lame analysis. But you can only work with what you're given...I'm undecided what this says about Pran as a possible Vord Queen. He generally seems to play a mildly confused schtick.


Edit: Ah, the case is here!


Yeah, power's back. Nice cross post. As for day 1, I had no idea how many other people had access to furies and in case it was a pretty limited group I didn't want to admit to it yet. Of course, now half the thread is claiming to have furies, so I don't mind acknowledging that I do also.


This looks like you could possibly be symping him. "a mildly conffused schtick"? I wouldn't agree with that assessment at all. Never mind his lame response to having furies.

I started so I wanted to finish. On reflection, it wasn't the best idea RL-wise. I'm feeling mighty irritable and unproductive. And yes, when you have to get up at 6.30 the next morning, every minute of sleep counts, so not that I can prove this, but that would be way too fucking zealous.

Reading over now, the Pran and Shelly analyses both were lame. I should have just gone to bed. But if there's more on Pran, you're welcome to pull it up yourself. I already said I was hoping others would add their own thoughts/opinions.

I 've noticed that Rash and Tiam have dropped their quantity of posts significantly imo. Maybe (if the queen controls the alts), this indicates the queen has picked up thier posting significantly.

Mmmm. There was also a massive increase in your posts after Mockra died. Was that linked? Don't be a hypocrite and start pointing the same kinds of things which were erroneously pointed at you. And, for the record, Pran too has upped their post count recently.

Okay, I'm not entirely happy with my reasons for voting Shelly being so heavily based on post times. As I said earlier I'll be back shortly before the day ends, if a train is nearly there I'll push it in, if not I need to do some proper looking back before I commit to a decision for the next day. With, like, an actual game case. Since my NA is publicly committed too, I don't even need to worry about that. So I've got myself some time to do some thinking. Can we have some commitment from both factions that they're not going to target Trake and I tonight with anything other than heals, otherwise I might just say fuck it and we take a few of you down with us. I'm not asking for you to out yourself, or your faction, just don't bother with hostilities against us this one night whilst we get Tavi back to health.

It was a valid point then, I admit that. But I was cleared, while you are still a suspect. If I was still a target, it'd be hypocritical. But I'm cleared, so there is no connection. For you, we still dont know
