Me did notice that you implied that you turned down a queens attempt to recruit you. I thinks that is quite a statement to make.


I did indeed turn down all offers received last night. I'm not certain it was a queen though. I think one might have been from a fellow human. But it used magic in the offer so....??


"Mrs. Robinson, you're trying to seduce me, aren't you?"

I'm reviewing the thread, trying to find things that stand out to me, and Tellan's claim that more than one person attempted to recruit him did that. I'm curious why he thinks one might have been a fellow human? And why does it matter if magic was used? If anything, that points directly at the Sidhe rather than the humans (though, as Tennes has pointed out, this COULD mean White Council).

Anyway, I don't know what else to make of this, but I wanted to pull it back up as something that stood out.


I'm reading up but I'll answer this one now: I was warned that that comment was right on the edge so I'll not comment further.

There are a couple things about Korlat that have been bothering me.

First he seems to keep trying to point out that it is going to be "too difficult" to get rid of both queens. This is a viewpoint that he seems to push a bit with several of his posts with no alternative voiced.

View PostKorlat, on 13 January 2015 - 10:50 PM, said:

I wonder what will happen if one of the queens in dead? Are they not their opposites and need each other for balance? If we get rid of one I have a feeling the other will be able to create mayhem.


I am repeating myself here, but in this post Korlat takes the strange stance that someone has lost a power level. Why the hell would that be someones first conclusion with the information given? I already asked this and was ignored.

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.


Here Korlat seems to know nothing about how the changelings work. Even after it has been made pretty clear that the changelings are meant to pick a side.

View PostKorlat, on 21 January 2015 - 02:20 AM, said:

I wonder if changelings can choose to either join the human or sidhe factions depending on how the game is going. Again, dont know if it translated into the game, but if you look at the wiki a changeling can choose either or. Maybe something to consider as Summer lost one of the guards or players aligned with her, so that might have given the winter-sidhe changelings some confidence to turn to that side.


Given all of this I feel that Korlat is a high power player for one of the queens, aka a shield. He keeps trying to steer the arguments away from looking for ways to get rid of the queens and it feels to me like he is trying to push the thinking towards finding the other human agency without actually saying anything outright.

Vote Korlat

I agree with quite a bit of what you say, Tholen. Korlat certainly comes across as not a low-level player. Silanah also gives me a similar feeling.

The only caveat to Korlat being that they could also be high-level human, rather than a shield, and that's why their changeling thought posts seem off.


I agree with both of you.

View PostKorlat, on 21 January 2015 - 05:19 PM, said:

Ah, so it seems I am being lynched now for being both a Summer operative and a Winter one.

I am finally popular.



You're going to love me then.

I want to see your CF.

Tennes thinks you're Winter and Tulas thinks you're Summer. I think you're neither. I'm voting you for being a shadowy government person.

Vote Korlat

"Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer."

I'd be mighty surprised to see the Denarians in this game. Technically the people holding the coins are mortals, but the Angels in the coins are so far removed from human that it wouldn't make much sense for them to be in this game given the information provided in the OP.

Surely you can tell us what makes you think that one of the recruit attempts was from a magic-wielding human?

Morning folks! I see that there hasn't been much progress on thread. I guess it's a damn good thing that I took the time to actually have some conversations yesterday seeing as pretty much nobody else seems to want to. Not much has changed, though Tholen did say something that made me uncomfortable.

I realize that I'm one of the people who has been discussing the changeling mechanics, but I don't think that it has 'been made pretty clear' exactly what the changelings are meant to do, though chances are the speculation that's on thread is most likely close to the mark.

At any rate, it just rubs me the wrong way, makes me think 'if it's so clear to you, then you must be a changeling.'


Do we have a successful bot here?

That's embarrassing. Run your MalwareBytes friends. Nothing malicious, I think but better safe than sorry.

Why cant the queens stay alive for the residents to be happy? Just like throughout all those years....

Tellen and Tulas shorn look like normal residents to me.

You're still 2 or 3 votes short so don't go courting a modkill.
