I think we can discount not posting on the weekend :)

I was around very briefly yesterday but there were only a few posts and I had nothing to contribute. However, the Tellan/Omtose musings have struck a chord. Namely, I don't particularly know what it is I'm trying to achieve in the overall picture. I'm just kinda...waiting around to see what happens. And I'm not even sure what it is that I'm supposed to hope happens. At least that's what it feels like.

You know what I think is making this so slow? Forced 48-hour days. Obdi, if there isn't a mechanics based reason for them can we do away with it please.

Vote Scrap forced 48-hour Days

Okay being absolutely hammered at work so don't have a lot of (any) time to post, reading up but not much more than that.

So, I see we're voting Korlat for ... talking I guess?
I really don't like a vote on Korlat. Togg, otoh,has been kinda off this last page.It feels like he is trying to derail the thread with suggesting different courses of action and not providing any reason to follow any singel one of the courses.


As to why I was pussy footing around before with my usggestions is that I was trying to point us in the direction of lynching all of the sidhe without getting my throat cut in the night :)

@Tulas: Yeah is isn't great to just stop playing when the queens target you like that, but those requirements added so much time onto every post and I was already busy at work. It just wasn't worth all that extra effort.

Having to google some unknown singers songs to find lyrics, then format them into Yoda speak then go through my whole post like that? Nah.

To recap;

We have humans, independants, winter, summer. That is four factions in this game, since it is a cult game I would be stunned if the team sizes were equal starting off, so winter/summer should have started with the fewest members. So if Mab is claiming winter has 1/3rd of the population then that means that most of the humans/independants have thrown in with them already, which is somewhat distressing that the game may be over sooner than we thought. Winter lost someone last night but maybe that just put them less in the lead, rather than put things back on an equal footing.

What do we do to stop a landslide of humans/changelings throwing in with winter?



The bolded - where is this? I cannot find the assertion.

I'd vote almost anyone but it'd be a 1 in 3 shot I'd lynch one of my minions. That's to move the game on I'd vote...maybe.


I think the 1/3 Winter claim is the above post.

Yeah, I'll give those who posted up until the weekend break a pass for now, but Ultama is 5 game days of no posting, so I'd say he should be mod-killed unless he shows up all of a sudden.

At any rate, we don't have much time left, if any, so I'm just gonna go ahead and

vote Tellan

because even if he did not make a slip, making such a blatant suggestion that he has joined a court as calling one of the Queens "My Queen" should be punished.

Interesting. It may be that loads declared for Winter after Alkend's modkill, or it may be that Korbas is just bullshitting to try and get others to join the 'winning' team, or it may be that Korbas simply thinks in terms of Korbas/Pallid/others as three distinct groups divided equally.

That's a lot of coulds.

I personally haven't been putting too much stock in anything the queens say. I'm more worried about the rest of us for now.

We are magnificent. Or at least I am.

Pallid is all smoke and mirrors.

I wonder why the Winter Queen has been concentrating her power on me.
Am I making her nervous, I'm interested to see.

By the way, did Silanah ever admit that they were wrong about the AC, or did the topic just die down over the weekend without any significant closure?

Well PS didn't answer my question so I go ice skating. That's a summer sport right? (I declared summer days ago.) I had me one of them there finds that detects NAs attempted. No indication who tried or whether they succeeded or failed.

The wording of the one aimed at Ampelas leads me to believe that the scenes mentioning gangland shootings could be clues.


The second that stood out was somebody inviting X and Y to join. Now if they've been tossing out invites two at a time, a cult could be getting out of hand.

One of the actions submitted could be a guard type. Doesn't use that wording so could be wrong about it.

Does anyone care to share whether they received an invitation last night?


Somebody declared for winter, somebody did a find on somebody, and two people defended something.

Interesting stuff. Why did you decide to come out with it?

Because the game is going nowhere.

Because those two invites at a time are disturbing especially if I assume that said invite is the same as I received night 1. That doubled as a species find.

I'm already on very thin ice I think, so I'm not going to name names, but if one of last night's two invitees will admit they received one, then I can eliminate three people from the suspect list. The two invitees and the person who was (maybe) guarded.

We can start putting some clues together maybe.

Or all y'all can simply lynch me for being a Summer declaree.

And/or you could wait to see if Obdigone decides I've broken through the ice and drowned. i.e. modkilled.
