Goddammit. I believe Mockra. But I want a lynch before freeze which will not happen if I remove.

Sorry Mockra. :p/>

Hey sorry, I've just remembered that Mockra can't move that far away from an infested tile. So just stay where he is then.

If we believe Mockra, this leaves us with... what? Korbas?

NG has been constantly going against the grain of the thread. I'm not sure that's enough to make him sufficiently suspicious to warrant a lynch just yet in my eyes though.

Heh, I love that I went away from a computer for a couple of hours, and Khell has managed to add 4-5 pages to the thread in spam alone. Heh, watching Khell do everything he can to muddy stuff up is actually a lot of fun. It's a shame they caught Mockra on the regenerating thing.

To anyone who's paying attention here, I'm still technically on vacation, but tomorrow I am back in the office, so I should have plenty of time to copy over all the PMs that I have been neglecting.

Fire Fury Attack Barghast

Be careful with comments like the above. It's not technically against the rule, but you've basically just told anyone who's been paying attention to Mafia in the last couple of months exactly who you are, and that sort of defeats the purpose of the alts.

Nope

Is it in any way possible to word a question so as to receive a solid answer as to why I got the "out of range" response for the Fire Fury active?



Nope, as I said, giving you any more information would give you too much information about other people's abilities.

I'll be around before night times out but I think I'll go ahead and confirm this:

I don't see a movement order to Calderon anywhere...

Oh shit, scratch that, I see it now. Sorry. If you wish to move to Calderon tonight, I can consider it a free move?

By free move what do you mean? I could move 4 tonight? I don't see the point of that since I want to be in Calderon and sit there for a while. As for the manifested furies I wanted them to be cast on Emur, my same target as before I realized I could use them. However, its no biggie. I'll use them tonight. Since I still have at least 10 pages to read, can you give me a quick status update? Is it night time right now?



Yep, timer is frozen with 4 hours left on Night 4.

Also, I apologize for screwing up your movement the other night. Had you noticed right away I would have fixed it, but now that Day 4 is completely over, it would just change too much of what has gone on today. I shall do my best not to let it happen again!

Edit to my night orders:

Attack Okaros, no fury, 3 damage, range 2

I'm leaning to Okaros being on team but not enough to leave him alive. Between the two of us attacking him we should do enough damage to finish him off, by changing to a plain attack it should also get around any potential water fury he has.

Monok:

Monok Ochem, on 03 July 2013 - 07:55 AM, said:

Quick Question: on day 4, the day status update showed

Kalare Infestation Counter: 0/10 Great Fury Counter: 1/20

There are 2 members of the Rebels on this tile.

Ceres Infestation Counter: 0/18 (15 + 2 + 1)

There is 1 member of the First Aleran on this tile. There is 1 member of the Loyalists on this tile.

But Fener and I had both moved to Kalere on night 3, thus would have been on Kalere come day 4, right??

For some reason, in our lovers comm, Fener linked the Ceres part of that update, as if he thought we were both still on Ceres. Can you confirm for me that we were both indeed on Kalere on day 4? Or if not Fener, at least me? I just assumed that since our lover link didn't breakdown he was still on same tile as me. WHICH brings me to my second question. It says I show up as Rebel faction during finds, so do I show up as rebel faction during these updates as well?



Your move was processed. That's the only question I can really answer without giving away other people's abilities and stuff.


Monok Ochem, on 03 July 2013 - 09:36 PM, said:

Move to Ceres.



Monok Ochem, on 04 July 2013 - 04:07 AM, said:

Fener is the Vord Queen? Or Vord?

We were both on Kalere and it said in opening remarks there were 2 rebels in Kalere, so I figured we're now both pretending to be rebels because he doesn't feel like one. Worst case is he's loyalist and he comes after me for thinking I'm rebel.

He seems LEAST like an FA, so that may mean that's what he is, but I'm getting strong Vord feelings.

Also, are all Vord able to log into and use any Vord alt, including these insane respawns?

How often have you thought about me naked?

This isn't an issue in this case given that you didn't try to change your move provisional, but just so you know, for future reference, the moment you give me a move order, provisional or not, that is your order for the movement phase. Ironman rule means you can't change it once you've given it, and provisionals are not accepted.

I actually forgot about that, whoops. Honestly, once I've made up my mind on the move anyway, I'm not going to change it, so it's not a big deal.

So am I just attacking my own team? Nimander said something that heavily made me think he could be FA. Korbas has basically confirmed it by me knowing his actions and him spewing things out loud on thread.

Why can Kitai calm Great Furies if I can anger them? Why would we want to keep them calm?


I suspect Fener is not in my faction... but I have no reason to think he's coming to Antillus (nobody seems to be here). I am probably wasting my time, by I'll attack him.

I kind of want the Vord to infest another tile so I can get access to those passives. They all seem pretty strong.

Looks like I should have finished brokering peace after today finishes, so for tonight...

Wow, just realized we're like 2 days behind on the Monok/Fener lover convo... Anyway, here's what's missing:

Monok Ochem, on 29 June 2013 - 02:07 AM, said:

PS made one correction. I can NOT bring other members into our comms. I CAN have more than one.comm though at the same time, so it may be useful in the long run. We have all weekend. I'll try to be on more either later tonight, or later Saturday night.



Fener, on 29 June 2013 - 09:52 AM, said:

Yeah you were pretty cool with the day 1 lynch, it had totally slipped me by how you hadn't actually voted on me until your convo appeared then I took a closer look at you - you're laying low, venturing opinions and keeping out of trouble, you're doing well. Alas, if only the same could be said for me.

I'm curious as to what your thoughts are on the other faction that could affect our primary goal, I hadn't actually sat down and considered that.

Comms open are welcome, I'd hate to make the mistake I nearly made on day 1 - before I started getting into serious heat my orders had gone in pretty early and they weren't kind on you - mainly for being low and subtle :p/> - when I survived the lynch I pulled those orders and turned it into a heal on myself just in case. Continues comms are going to be essential too - we need to come up with a way to say, on thread, if we need to have an action, say a heal, performed on us. Or to point out a target and location. So we need a cypher for action and for location. Potentially for time too. I'll think on these shortly.

Trust me, I've been beating myself around the head with a slipper the past week, one more shoe isn't going to add much. At least I totally passed under the radar yesterday, despite being amongst the top posters. Even if they were mostly talking to Tiam.

With regards to future movements, if we both move to the same tile tonight it'll establish for certain if the convo remains without needing another action, not only that it'd allow us to go around hovering up our entire team if you felt like trying the comms thing every night, you could then act as a communication hub, allowing us to bring a lot more coordination to our efforts. Before we do that however we need to establish on thread coded comms. If it doesn't hold then we know for certain the limits and would already have means to re-establish (although not for a few turns, since I don't doubt you have some targets for your other actions)

I don't suppose you'd hesitate to let me know what aspect of attacks you think are incoming?

Alas, my Earth ability isn't a Finder - I can't actually verify who you are, so if you wouldn't mind, what is my role name, and yours?

Do you have any idea what is going on with Korbas?

I'll get to thinking on comms shortly, if you haven't heard anything in the next 2 hours then ignore anything for the rest of the day as I'm off out for a few beers and likely won't be coherent - although I'll no doubt think I am!

Of abilities, (8) from the OP;

2 Find
3 Guard
4 Attack
5 Recruit
6 Fortify
7Infest
8 Heal

Subject;

-All the alts (23 currently)



We also need to have some signals for discoveries;

Trust x (i.e. on team/potentially neutral)
Mistrust <alt>
Primary target ("Holy shit, taking down this one will be our VCs pretty much fulfilled") <alt>
Meet me at <location>
Meet me in <days>

Any more suggestions for the above?


Of these, the alt subject will be the easiest. When we want to warn of a message, speculate on a previous lynch train. Include the time stamp. Modify the time stamp of the PS update, 01:XX - first alphabetical alt 02:XX - 2nd alt. It'll pass by and most people will take it as meta that you're giving away your time zone if they notice at all. To do this, remove the red section of the heading

[qu ote name='Emurlahn' timestamp='1372460605' post='1067158']

and change the name= to

[qu ote name='Emurlahn, on 29 June 2013 - 12:03 AM,' post='1067158']

taking care to ensure the whole section is encapsulated within the ' ' formatting.



We can probably get a lot more information into formatting, these are a lot less subtle so thoughts on them;

For either location or action, (I'm going to avoid what we do if we need to specify a location *and* an action for now) in the PS vote update we can try to discuss people being in the train with others on thread, place emphasis on names - so for instance those who haven't voted or voted against the current lynch would be a good place to target for this, find any excuse to pull out the required number of alts - have they never voted? Never sustained a vote? Highlight them to the thread - highlight them in colour for action, size for location.

So for instance

would say 4 different by size, that must mean Ceres

This has the potential to get a fair amount of information out in a single post and in a post that we can spot easily. Any thoughts so far?

I notice these alts have so far
managed to avoid being both on the main train of the day, and voting on it at
any point. Are they defending Trake or do they not car for a
lynch?



Subtle enough?



Fener, on 29 June 2013 - 11:04 AM, said:

In fact, we could even stack both failed lynch trains (or any future ones) in the same post, playing on thread as drawing connections between peoples actions whilst giving us a second list of alts to play with, allowing if we use font size for the first and colour for the second us to specify a name, location and an action. So Heal Nimander on Ceres becomes possible, whilst looking like genuine play. And indeed, we can make it genuine play. If we need to highlight a few that we can't connect, wen someone points it out, say oops, yes, I was thinking something else with regard to them, repeat the post with the pointed changes made, leaving the original in situ and ask people to disregard the original, even say you've since had doubts about it and think you may be barking up the wrong tree or similar.

Ancillary messages perhaps formatting on the vote targets or those voting on the vote targets? We need to come up with a defined ancillary list first though so I'll wait for your thoughts on that.

Edit: Actually, we could do with re-arranging the order of the actions, the more common ones need to have the lower number of format changes so we don't have to be generally vague but can try to make reasonable points too. Thoughts? We'll need a confirmed final draft by the end of Day 3 that we keep independent of the forum as we'll lose these conversations when moving away

You're being lumped in with Tiam as neither of you seem very trusted. If we HAD to throw someone under the bus, should it be Tiam, Rashan, or god forbid, you? I've got something I can pull that I think can deter off you, but we may lose Tiam or Rashan.

As for as my thoughts on Korbas : I didn't want to follow you on the lynch train, at least not directly behind you, but even in his first post he coded with "a bottle of wine, perhaps a nice red." Let me pull up my notes.

Korbas: some of these posts may mean nothing, yet I note ANYTHING that may help later.

Lots and lots of talk about the Vord. I guess that means we're going on a bug hunt (are they bugs? That's what I'm imagining in my head).


Any reason we wouldn't go after the Vord? Their goal is to eliminate us all, everyone has a Vord elimination VC. Makes sense no?



When you put it like that, yeah. But for most the VC is to eliminate the Vord Queen and fuck (not literally) the rest of the Vord. One individual between twenty-something players might take a while to track down. I'm certainly not expecting the factions to remain the bestest of friends if it does end up a long chase.
It might be tough to not have this game go the way such books always go (and I bet in the Alera series too). Loads of squabbling and fighting between various armies/petty nations etc, whilst a bigger threat grows ever stronger in the background.
Very fun-looking setup this!


The most neutral players are the First Aleran. The rebels and loyalist would love to lynch each other as well as the Vord. Fener may turn out to be a good lynch today because there seems to be people defending him, people attacking him and possible Vord links.

Their CF could shed light on other players.

In fact for that reason I will

Vote Fener


This one makes me feel Korbas is a safe Target. He's going after you as Vord, again way to slip Keeper +5, and it doesn't seem like distancing, but not sure what faction he is claiming.

Only someone with this much power could make this many frittatas without breaking any eggs.

Modify the time stamp of the PS update, 01:XX - first alphabetical alt 02:XX - 2nd alt.

Fener, on 02 July 2013 - 12:00 AM, said:

Sorry, am around off and on, long day looming here. Got my secondary browser set to open PMs and game thread every time it opens so you're probably getting lots of updates to my last viewed time that aren't entirely accurate.

Hell, if it comes down to it, throw me under the bus - I've been playing like a retard so far, can't see it getting much better. Just pass the code on, I think it a pretty nifty communication system that could benefit the team even if I'm not there to see it.

For the lynch, whenever that happens to be, I'm going to stick on Korbas unless I'm needed to finish off Tiam. Although a train on her seems to be building pretty well by itself - I had figured that there was an outside chance she was playing genuine and good to humour her in case she was, but she's for it with the failure of PS backing her up. Read SH when you make it there for enlightenment on the PM Venge sent me, oops.

Korbas is claiming FA (No, not Forkrul Assail, dammit, bad abbreviation for this forum) so I'm rather doubting him being genuine - the giving +1s could be genuine but that conflicts with his seeming knowledge of actions of others which would also surely be an ability and he can't have two going at once.

Getting the unlocking conditions on thread is good, a little more knowledge out there that the infestation of tiles actually does matter might see some improvements in actions.

Indeed, we should hopefully start knocking out a few alts this day though - so 24 as a maximum is handy. I'd suggest further that the 00:XX interval be discounted unless we need it for a 24th alt - straight forward to count down the list then going by the hour part without needing to take into account the discrepancy of 00hours.


We also need to have some signals for discoveries;

Yeah, a primary goal for this weekend, maybe tonight.
I'm not decided on my NAs yet, I'm tempted to target Elinarch for a burn on the hopes it'll show up from a PS update and actually prove I'm useful rather than the master of Tiam that some think I may be, numbnuts that they are. I'm pretty decided on my movement - just a single hop to Kalere to keep me in range, I've stayed on this tile for 2 days now, time to get a move on. If you move there (only a single tile) then we'll at least find out if the convo holds up to travel. I suspect that Blend/Venge will see that it doesn't but you never know - can you imagine having off-thread comms with your entire team?!

It's been actually a slow weekend convo-wize, what sort of time will you be around for PMs if not on-thread tomorrow? The only time I'll be away from a computer for a significant amount of time is between 12 and probably 5pm EDT and from 8pm till maybe 6am onwards so any time excluding those is good. We've got a good long day but probably better for you to stay low on thread - it has been a slow weekend and I don't expect this coming week to be much better so jumping to top-poster levels may not be the best of ideas. Speaking of which, we have quite a number of low posters other than yourself, are you going to start upping your on-thread talk or hope that you're not the one that someone picks out as a potential alt-master?

So, as for signalling the above section, how about keeping it to the formatting we've seen so far and introducing some more changes into the PS update I suggested before. This time, change the , separating the alt names in a PS update to a . - so long as you don't include the . in the increased size/changed color most will skip straight past it, seeing what they expect to see. Lets face it, how many of us read the name of every alt in a PS update, let alone note the formatting.

There's a lot more action messages I feel I'm missing out however they're slipping me by at the moment so lets leave it at:

(number of . instead of , in a PS update)

1) Trust <alt>
2) Mistrust <alt>
3) VC target <alt>
4) Meet me at <location>
5) Meet me in <days>
6) Tonights suggested primary target <alt>
7) ...
8) ...






Fener, on 02 July 2013 - 12:52 AM, said:

So, to set it in out as a potential action, what do you think to meeting again in 3 or 4 days (so move to the location on Dusk 5/6, Day 6/7 convo) at Alera Imperia? It'll give us both a day/two to flex our muscles assuming we try for the combined movement tomorrow to Kalare and shouldn't be out of range of our potential likely movements, being nice and central as it is. There is the downside of the Fury counter but as that's got a 30 count that is highly unlikely to be triggered by Day 6/7. This does, of course, assume I survive that long.

I guess it wouldn't be wise for you to speculate however given that you're likely under an unlock penalty too, would it be wiser for you to be trying to talk to people over the next few days or working some actions of your own?

Now we're past the first few days signalling is going to start getting lost amongst the pile of pages of backchat so we at least have the potential for the rest of our team to come on board if not via you or I actions directly - thoughts on this? Being a communication hub is good, but the more you can get on board without directly using abilities the better.



Monok Ochem, on 02 July 2013 - 01:03 AM, said:

I'll need about 4 or 5 hours until I get off work. And NO we are NOT tossing you under the bus. I NEED you alive in a way you don't know yet. Also, don't mention your in game name in this convo. I know who you are, and I can't trust telling you who I am just yet, but think about it. Think of our faction, think of our 'lover' or 'warrior' convo, and try to figure it out, but DON'T say it on this comm.

I will move to Kalere with you tonight. Can you heal? If so, heal me. If you do, I can mimic it and heal you back, but you're more powerful than me i believe, so my heal will only do upwards to 3 no matter how powerful yours is.

If you CAN'T heal, think of something else we can do to help ourselves. I started the game in Kalere. I'm most powerful there. Let's continue treating each other as 'mostly trustable' but not screw ourselves in case you get turned.

Are you already turned, man? I know you wouldn't answer honestly, but PS was vague when I asked PS if my lover attempt on you would fail if you were 'technically' no longer my faction if since I can only open comms with my team, and certain 'allies'. I am just gonna go ahead and assume we are.

Also, I clarified. If we both move, but to same exact tile, we keep comms. At least it sounded that way to me. If we both hit Kalere, my action should be free, and we should still be linked. If not, ill relink and we'll recalibrate plans. Be back in a few hours.



Fener, on 02 July 2013 - 01:08 AM, said:

I'm aiming to keep to the left side of Alera so if you are on that side too I can if needed provide a bit of protection to you - my water fury will function as a heal so long as we're on the same tile so if you take some random shit in the night using on-thread messages we can arrange an meet if needed sooner for a heal. Should probably make 7 in ^^ an "Acknowledged, I'll be there" and 8 an "Can't make it, sorry"

Gotcha. You think someone has convo-monitoring? Likely in this TDMI, I'm guessing time limited though like Blend did in the Timelords games (i.e. where time shifted the messages were lost, here as we're not in a day really they'll know messages passed but not the content). How long are you available for after you get off? - we still have the whole of Day don't forget, clock is still frozen. I'm going to have to hit the deck shortly in order to make it on time tomorrow, should have reasonable comms apart from those times for most of the rest of the week.

I will move to Kalere with you tonight. Can you heal? If so, heal me. If you do, I can mimic it and heal you back, but you're more powerful than me i believe, so my heal will only do upwards to 3 no matter how powerful yours is.

I can indeed heal, as I said on thread I have water Fury, without a word of a lie. Doubting buggers. I healed myself Dusk 1 just in case anyone tried for me. Most wasted night ever.

If you CAN'T heal, think of something else we can do to help ourselves. I started the game in Kalere. I'm most powerful there. Let's continue treating each other as 'mostly trustable' but not screw ourselves in case you get turned.

Panic not, I can heal. Although it'll take my action for the Dawn. You can I assume perform another action or is your required action limited to reflecting/duplicating mine? As an aside, I have a movement of 2/1, can you match me or not? Simple so I know if I am potentially outpacing you. I'm going to hold off actually submitting my orders till maybe 6 hours before day times out (I've not checked potential time outs so this may change but with Iron Man in effect we can't take the risk that something on thread indicates a move may be bad.

Are you already turned, man? I know you wouldn't answer honestly, but PS was vague when I asked PS if my lover attempt on you would fail if you were 'technically' no longer my faction if since I can only open comms with my team, and certain 'allies'. I am just gonna go ahead and assume we are.

Without a shadow of a lie, no, I am not turned form my alignment. Rest assured. Although now I have to ask it of you...

Also, I clarified. If we both move, but to same exact tile, we keep comms. At least it sounded that way to me. If we both hit Kalere, my action should be free, and we should still be linked. If not, ill relink and we'll recalibrate plans. Be back in a few hours.

Awesome, unless it was signed with a -V in which case get a second opinion from Blend :p/> (Hello Venge :p/> ) You'll be available for the Night phase I hope then, as that 4 hour window is when it'll become clear if it has held or not? Or at least I assume so, I didn't note the time PS opened this convo, it may have been Dusk or Dawn

Still busy, but just on a quick note, I can only move 1/1. So yeah, you would have to watch out-pacing me. Secondly, I'm full Hit Points at the moment, so unless you need a heal from me, feel free to use whichever action you want.

I so want to experiment with something they may be HUGE for us if you have Wood Fury, and the ability to increase the range on things. This won't work with heals, as if you can heal you've already been told, but it MAY work with my COMMS with our other team members. If we can get that to work, we'll be SICK. Or then again, maybe not. You're my main lover, and that's why we were somehow drawn to each other. I can point myself in your general direction any night we don't have comms, unless youre compromised.

Crap, 1/1 is slow. Guess I'll be coming to you then! Although at this rate, more than fast enough. I'm good on HP too, not had a single attack come my way yet - plus of being everyones easy lynch target I suppose.

Small note form the OP regarding Wood: This effect does not stack with active fury actions (i.e. healing from water furies will not be long range) so if your communications is an Active then it'll probably be out the question if I had it. Is PS willing to clarify on that?

Got to head off now, should be around tomorrow as said earlier.

Alt subject
Include the time stamp in the PS lynch train post. Modify the time stamp of the PS update, 01:XX - first alphabetical alt 02:XX - 2nd alt. It'll pass by and most people will take it as meta that you're giving away your time zone if they notice at all. To do this, remove the red section of the heading

taking care to ensure the whole section is encapsulated within the ' ' formatting and making sure that the date is correct.

Location
For location in the PS vote update we can try to discuss people being in the train with others on thread, place emphasis on names - so for instance those who haven't voted or voted against the current lynch would be a good place to target for this, find any excuse to pull out the required number of alts - have they never voted? Never sustained a vote? Highlight them to the thread - highlight them in size for coding a location.

So for instance

Quote

It is now Day 2. 2 minutes remaining.
Players alive: Alkend, Barghast, Demelain, Emurlahn, Fener, Gait, Galain, Hood's Path, Kedeviss, Korbas, Liosan, Mockra, Monok Ochem, Nimander Golit, Okaros, Pran Chole, Ryllandaras, Sheltatha Lore, Tellan, Tiamatha, Trake, Ultama

would have 4 different by size, that must mean Ceres, 4th location in the above list.


Action
As above, highlight the required number of alts using a colour instead. Use a second lynch train as if you were comparing between the two.

Other
To indicate a message in the Other heading, in one of the above lynch trains, alter the "," between alt names to a ".". The total number of these so changed in the quoted post(s - could spread it through both lynch trains if you use 2) indicates which selection. I'd suggest confining this if possible to ,'s after a highlighted alt name, preferably size highlighting and keep the . out of the highlight.



Monok Ochem, on 02 July 2013 - 06:23 PM, said:

Holy shit, I missed that entire train. At least Vengy saved your ass.....for now. I put my movement orders to Kalere in this thread, thinking it should count as good as any. I put them in the other one to, so as long as the mods aren't too anal, I'll be on Kalere with you. I am going to heal you tonight, I don't trust someone that I won't yet name. If this comm breaks for some reason, we need to code this info in posts somehow: I want to know if you DID take damage, and how much my heal hit you for. At least I hope it works like that. And how much damage you topic if any.

I can't help I've been so busy, but give me 2 or 3 hours and I'm on the rest of the nights and all day tomorrow.

I can confirm a heal was received, you healed me to full HP, I didn't have an attack on me though so remained at full HP.

So, do you get told how much of a bonus your ability does to my actions? I ask because I used my (2nd revealed) ability last night on Alkend and Okaros, Alkaros was either low HP, targeted by someone else too or your thing only boosted my first target as he was the only death. Or He only had 4HP, no boost in effect and Okaros had 4 and Metal or 5+HP.

That extra info on the day start is either going to be very useful or very dangerous. I'm surprised to see that we have more numbers. There isn't anyone else here so no-one else to talk to alas.

Hmm checking out the start of day message in a bit more detail I note one thing of interest:

Quote

Day 3
Ceres
Infestation Counter: 0/18 (15 + 2 + 1)


Quote

Day 4
Ceres
Infestation Counter: 0/18 (15 + 2 + 1)

There is 1 member of the First Aleran on this tile.
There is 1 member of the Loyalists on this tile.


So we had a member of the First on tile last night, I can't help wonder what abilities he was using. He didn't move which leads me to suspect he may be tied to that tile - conferring some bonus ability perhaps. I can confirm that he has Wind Furies as my Earth passive didn't detect him, just reported that two of us were there. Your convos may have a ranking system then - selects your own before allies.



Monok Ochem, on 03 July 2013 - 06:32 AM, said:

No, as far as my convo, I have to actually choose a Target. That Target has to both BE on my tile, AND be in faction, or ally. I didn't use my convo ability last night, because I healed you.

Does your ability tell you the names of alts on our tile? Because I'd like to open up another comm with someone else we think is our team, AND not just our team, but a smart player, but I have to know which tile they're on. So if you get a feeling about someone, I'll try to open comms with them, but hope they are on our tile.

I failed trying comms with Nimander Golit, but it was because it said out of range, but I'm guessing it will say out of range even if they're not, because I could use it as a Find ability.

I haven't had much time lately, a lot going on RL, but I plan on upping my post count gradually, as I'm usually a high poster and really involved.

More questions incoming....



Fener, on 03 July 2013 - 10:45 AM, said:

Damn, you really did strike it lucky with me then. Alas no, I just get told there are x alts on the tile, including myself. Unless someone has Wind in which case they don't get revealed.

Possible start locations for characters:

Loyalists
Iasana - Calderon
Bernard - Calderon
Araris Valerian - Alera Imperia
Gaius Sextus - Alera Imperia
Killian - Alera Imperia

Rebels
Aldrick ex Gladius - Aquitaine
Attis Aquitaine - Aquitaine
Invidia Aquitaine - Aquitaine
Kalarus Brencis - Ceres
Kalarus Bencis Minoris - Ceres
Gaelle - Ceres
Gaius Caria - Alera Imperia
Odiana - Alera Imperia or Aquitaine

First
Tavi - Calderon
Kitai - Calderon

Are you around at all?

If I make a suggestion, see what you think of it - you move to Ceres again and try a convo there. There was 4 team within one move of that tile at start of day, likely someone will have moved there if they're moving around at all. Plus my bit of blatant signalling on thread might send one or two there. We'll lose our comms unless I move there too so I'm going to put move orders in shortly to that effect in case the Mockra lynch flies whilst I'm out.

I guess today has been busier than anticipated for you? Quiet day here so far but I'll be away from a computer shortly, for up to 5 hours.



Fener, on 03 July 2013 - 04:12 PM, said:

Actually, scrub that, I'm not moving to Ceres, I'll head elsewhere. I'll be on Ceres not the next day but the one after that.

More Fener/Monok:


Monok Ochem, on 03 July 2013 - 04:42 PM, said:

I'm here. Work is being a son of a bitch. And I did get pretty lucky getting a comm with you, but I figured it out with what you were saying when you thought you were dying. You said you started on Aquataine, and would need two more days to be within range for testing out that 'fighting back the croach' theory you told the thread, or one if the Vord advance a tile. So this was after you had moved to Alera Imperia(I am guessing here because you said you were heading to Ceres) but it would take another day. So I just timed it to meet you there as I started on Kalere.

Explain this to me though. As of Day 4.

Kalare Infestation Counter: 0/10 Great Fury Counter: 1/20

There are 2 members of the Rebels on this tile.

Ceres
Infestation Counter: 0/18 (15 + 2 + 1)

There is 1 member of the First Aleran on this tile. There is 1 member of the Loyalists on this tile.



Fener, on 03 July 2013 - 09:33 PM, said:

The great Fury counter or something else? Not sure why it is only showing 1, I thought it was supposed to increment per person per day - might be worth checking with PS. I'm here for a few hours now.



Monok Ochem, on 03 July 2013 - 09:40 PM, said:

I'm here for a bit, too. Finally off work. The holidays plus work have kept me really busy.

Phew, freedom at last. You've got a long weekend I guess?

That's cool. I put my movement orders to Ceres. We can meet there the day after tomorrow if we need to talk. If you need to talk to me before then, just let me know somehow. Also, I'm going to try to open comms with someone, but it's nothing more than a shot in the dark. So if you have any suggestions, let me know before we lose comms.



Fener, on 03 July 2013 - 09:51 PM, said:

We don't need to communicate all that much actually do we now we know who we are. We have a code established if we need to convey anything so the best thing probably is for it to be communicated - you are essentially able to seek out members of our faction, something I have no information on at all. I suspect Liosan is ours but nowhere near certain on that. I hope Emurhlan is, if only for GHs way of looking at things.

No, because we were both on Kalere Day 4 not Ceres, right?



Fener, on 03 July 2013 - 09:56 PM, said:

To be quite honest, I'm not actually sure where I am unless I go and check my PMs. I thought we were on Kalere, you had some extra boost there or something?

My brain is starting to hurt, this vote weighting on thread isn't helping - incidentally, you might want to vote on a train at some point - so keep it simple please?



Monok Ochem, on 03 July 2013 - 10:00 PM, said:

We were both on Kalere because that's where we both moved to test to see if comms would stay open. And it says there are two Rebels on Kalere as start of day, and we are the only two people on Kalere. See what I'm saying?



Fener, on 03 July 2013 - 10:01 PM, said:

You're saying that there are two Rebels on Kalare?



Monok Ochem, on 03 July 2013 - 10:04 PM, said:

Yes. And only you and I are on Kalere.



Fener, on 03 July 2013 - 10:04 PM, said:

So, your point is what exactly?



Monok Ochem, on 03 July 2013 - 10:08 PM, said:

That you couldn't have trusted me fully at first. We didn't know we would eventually get this type of day status reveal. Just hoping you can trust me FULLY now. That's all.



Fener, on 03 July 2013 - 10:10 PM, said:

You know, I had so many doubts about you to start with my actions for Dawn the end of the first day were for an attack on you. It was only close to the end of day I changed my mind. You were close to me putting an order to that effect in about 5min ago too! I figured keep talking like I trust you, ask you lots of questions you ignored and see if you'll give me anything to work with.



Monok Ochem, on 03 July 2013 - 10:17 PM, said:

Well, I was just trying to see if I could trust you as well. I did lie about knowing your alt name, so I figured worse case scenario we could at least help each other out. I was just being careful, and I understood you were doing the same. I really am trying to find my teammates though. I figure I can help best by getting us all on same page.



Fener, on 03 July 2013 - 10:23 PM, said:

And I lied a bit about having any idea who you are at all. I'm Invidia Aquitaine btw, the double-crossing back-stabbing bitch of the series. You may have noticed some speculation as to my alignment early in the thread! My abilities are pretty much as described on thread too, apart from the final one which was in the post I deleted when I thought I was lynched. That is less useful - if recruited to the Vord, and on the same tile as the Queen, I'll have a lover convo with her. Since the Taker is out the way (that was sheer fluke on my part that I picked the right low poster, possibly because he then appeared and starting talking) hopefully we'll be recruitment free from now on. So we have a numerical advantage to start with but likely very little clue who is on our team. As I said, I had no info at all. Did you have my name or anything?



Fener, on 03 July 2013 - 10:26 PM, said:

I'm heading to Alera Imperia for the next day by the way, with 3 of our team there there's a chance another can have a convo with me. Of course, after the day update they may all have scarpered



Monok Ochem, on 03 July 2013 - 11:19 PM, said:

No, I wasn't given your name. I just didn't know how to go about saying "Hi! I'm not sure who you are, but you sound really smart on thread and I hope you'll trust me enough to help me!"

Heh. Korbas mentioned being able to open comms when on same tile. He might be on our team. And no I haven't read the series, so no idea what anyone's name means anyway.

I'm going to stay here for now I guess. Hopefully someone passes through and I can open a comm with them. If you get into any trouble, use the system above.
