A police scanner relates an attempted assassination overnight, but it seems that most people sense something and stay inside during the night, hiding.

It gets warmer then cooler then warmer then cooler all night, very weirdly. It leads people to stay inside even more.



It is day 3. There are lots of hours and 0 minutes left. (Day will time out Tuesday Evening, US East coast time)

There are 16 alive: (9 to lynch)
Ampelas, Korbas, Korlat, Mockra,, Omtose, Pallid, Silanah, Spite, Tellan, Tennes, Tholen, Tiamatha, Togg, Tulas Shorn, Ultama, Venesara


Not Voted: Everyone Else.

Gonna be Captain Obvious here. These seem like the power levels of the players. The two fives are most likely the queens and looks like someone did something wrong and lost a power level as well.

Is this something we get every night? We didn't get it last time.

Sure seems like it. Are you referring to the 2 as the one who lost a power level?

Not sure I'd agree with someone "did something wrong", probably just the other power 2 player died already. Seems more likely to me.

Maybe, but it looks like the power levels were evenly distributed. And with the note that an assassination attempt was related and stopped by a police scanner does seem like someone might have lost a power level from that.

Maybe we only get updates on the power levels if they change per player action since we didnt get an update when we lost a player due to mod kill.

Once again, Mab and Titania are at each others throats in the beautiful city of Chicago. No one knows what set them off this time, but it seems that almost all their troops are defending the borders of reality from the outsiders, so they must turn those that they had previously ignored. The cast offs. The changelings.

They are offering prime places in their courts for any who declare for them and help drive out the hated enemy.

Humans just want peace, but the thought of power and immortality is certainly attractive to some.

Be warned, a shadowy government organization has taken interest in all the odd happenings in Chicago, and is in town investigating.

Pretty much guarantees that a changeling has declared for one side or the other I would think. There are a couple of other possibilities that we know about just from the given info, but this is by far the most likely. So we do we have Korlat swearing up and down that someone has lost a power level and Togg saying that there are oddball level 2's dying?

Should we perhaps try lynching Summer today (was it Summer? Whichever Alkend was aligned with)?

People are definetly going to be able to "power up" in this game when humans or changelings make deals, but I don't think anyone will lose power, I thought it was more likely that a second 2 would have died rather than a level 3 lost power. But I agree with you that it is more likely that they made a deal and actually powered up instead.

How many shields do we think we're up against? 3 each to match the six people at that power level, or more like one?

My guess is that they each have 2 shields.

If there are two shiekds per queen, the other two 3s may be the secret government FBI faction. Makes sense to give them some power, though they would necessarily be below the queens. Or if a 2 has powered up, then there may have been only one level 3 FBI.

Apologies for lack of posting, though I see the weekend was dead anyway.

Should have time later today to catch up and contribute.

Care to elaborate?

Don't call me a fucktard. My plan can work after all! Hah. Tennes doesn't know what Tennes is right about so Tennes, you just tell me what it is and then we'll ask Tennes and compare the answer. It'll still work Tennes. Okey Tellan maybe it can work and I really don't like moving into another person so soon. Not everybody has a mind malleable enough to fall for this bit. Tellan, Tennes is right about Summer maybe being vulnerable since he's down one with the modkill. Tennes why does that matter since it's a new day? Simple enough Tellan for even you to get. Even if you're the only one who turned down the queens Summer is still short a person. And that counts for what Tennes? Well Tellan what if it takes two nights to make a shield? So what Tennes? Tellan it's only day 2 so even if Summer successfully recruited somebody last night then they might not be able to be made a shield until tonight. Maybe it's a time consuming process Tellan. HMmm let me think on that a moment. First I'll ask Tennes what he thinks about that theory though.


Do you know something about how the process works on choosing shields or are you maybe trying to lead us into a wrong thought process. Just having verbal diarrhea and throwing in hints of things so when people just skim through all these posts they will subconsciously pick it up. There isn't an info on the in the OP and looking up the Dresden wiki/and having read the books it seems like the shields are the 2 mantles of Winter and Summer. Knight and Lady. So it would make sense that there are two shields. Also it says that the powers are transferred instantaneously.

There is also a Winter/Summer King but it says that they are mainly independent and their nature is opposite to the Queens.

Take a moment to process that question and think of who will actually BENEFIT from that, except for Winter

I think this goes towards the recruitment aspect I was talking about earlier. Lots of low power players with the potential of way one way or the other. 7 players at 1 power. Or perhaps they can't do nothing and are waiting for the FBI.
