The man’s eyes narrowed slightly over the rim of his glass. Was this sorcery, or simply japes? He truly could not tell, with this ensemble.
AV, are you being compelled right now?
Blink five times for yes, seven for no.
Windows to the soul?
More like a two way mirror
Darkness swirls within
This thread is in the pinned ones and honestly that made me unable to find it. I’m used to them being right beneath.
I have been through much.
Seen ask the dark has to offer.
It is not enough.
So uh. Fun though the haikus and RP are, we do need to kill someone in just under six hours.
And I have no idea who someone should be beyond "preferably not me".
Going to make a vote count. That might help. Probably not.

That was not particularly enlightening.
Eh, should I switch to someone other than Kraken because it would be mean to kill him D1?
...maybe.
I'll see what other people do first.
Snowblaze: I'm not going to keep my vote on you, don't worry.
Snowblaze: Only 6 hours left! I guess I might keep my vote on you.
Don't love a few players being totally inactive but in the interest of self-preservation,Persolus.
I suppose switching to Persolus won't hurt.
Won't hurt me, at least.
I lost track of time. Moving to not be mean to Kraken so Vote: Xihirli.
I'll be around a bit more until deadline, but honestly I don't know what we have to really make a decision on right now. Feels like it's been all random votes and haikus.
I get it - if I had an actual reason for staying on you I'd say so, but again it feels like a lot of nothing. Didn't even realize phase was going to be over so soon.
A little worried about the fact that we haven't moved out of the random voting phase and everyone has just kinda been OK with the votes/lack of reasons.

What is it, 3 hours left?

I was always planning on switching, I just wanted to see if the suggestion I wouldn't would lead to any interesting wagon movements. Which... we actually have wagon movements now, so I'm calling that a victory even though it's probably not due to me leaving my vote on you a little longer.
Caoimhin gets the thinnest of town points for accurately summing up my views on gamestate, but it's not exactly hard for wolves to fake those views.
Xihirli because in the absence of information the best move is to make sure there will be information on future days, which means competing wagons.
I'm not going to say that I'm in favour of switching my vote because Persolus has also read a PGtE...
But I'm going to strongly imply it. Anyone in favour of a last-minute wagon on someone who has not read the serial? Cazero, for instance?
Well, I cannot officially endorse going after people who haven't read this because, well... yeah, I don't want to be on the chopping block myself.
Won't be around until phase is over so... good luck? Seems like the thread is dead, whatever you guys decide to do.
It's more that I realized it's hypocritical if I make a fuss about dying D1 because I love the source material, and then vote out someone else D1 who's also read it. Wish I'd thought about it earlier.
Cazero, my apologies. I did roll a die between the players with votes who had not already read it.

MerelBlackbird is the one person that has yet to say anything, so I'm surprised no one voted on them, but apparently someone has to die, and there isn't really enough data for proper reasoning, so random votes are about all there is. Personally, I’m not gonna vote as there’s a 3-way tie and I wanna see how the dice rolls.
Why Cazero over Xihirli when the latter already had three votes at the time of this post and also has not read the serial (if the reactions in the Discord poll are to be relied on)?

Kraken did vote for MerelBlackbird but changed for self-preservation.
Is there a reason you didn't vote Merel yourself?
Unrelated, I am leaving my vote on Xihirli unless something changes within the next eleven minutes.

Oh okay rolling dice. That is a semi-valid explanation but I still think it would be more natural to just switch to the existing wagon fitting the criteria rather than create a new flashwagon.

My thought process just now: Let the dice land where they may! Well, Providence favours Above so that probably benefits us... wait it would be cool if one of the Namelore bastard mechanics was a tie resolution thing... actually I didn't check the tie rules I just assumed it would be random.
It is not random. There is a certain method.
I don't know if that changes anyone's decision, but. At least we know now.
Hello!
I just got home from vacation, and I'm sorry I've been MIA. My mind is not really on the game yet, but I did read, and on the surface, Xi looks like a reasonable decision. I will have more time after the weekend is over and we finish cleaning up..
Day One ends now, please wait for results.

Oh what might, oh what fright! What shall be the outcome of this terrible fight!
Fate calls judgement for thee, and judgement calls for three.
One will show the soundless lies.
Two will silence the unbidden rise.
Three will shatter the dishonest guise.
Persolus has been judged, and struck thrice.

Huh. Okay then. I was not expecting to kill a wolf today. Guess Providence really does favour Above!
@Book Wombat was Merel's vote discounted due to being after the stated EOD time?
Noted, thanks.
Which means either I am an idiot or there is vote manipulation in play.
Anyway, proper thoughts D2 assuming I live that long.

Oh, actually, have some PGTE lore. Apprentice is a Name that does feature there - it's a transitional Name, usually leading to some kind of mage-Name, so it's quite likely that Persolus would have gained a significantly more powerful Name and role at some point if he'd lived. We've seen Apprentices transition to
Spoiler
Warlock, Hierophant and Mage (later Archmage)
in the series proper. I don't recall either Discern or Twist being aspects of any of those Apprentices so any speculation would be based only on the usual sort of roles in these games and mine is no more informed than anyone else's.
Okay, well.
Currently sitting in Emerg - allergy related, should be fine but better safe than sorry.
To answer you, Snow, Xihirli also indicated that she had read it in the discord. Cazero, Cao, and Flat were the people I rolled for, since they had votes on them.
Very glad my surprise wagon didn't take, though.
Counting is not hard, it is simple. Is this not standard?
Tautologies can be useful on occasion, but i do not see the point in conversation; nothing is said.
It would depend on how skillful each was with their implement. I believe that a Carpenter is often employed for that manner, and I use one myself on occasion.
People often say that, but there are so many things that compel them. I don't understand it.
I take offence at that notion, I stated I was of Below in my first discourse this game. I have been nothing but honest since we began. I have been the Apprentice from the beginning.
[out of character - hopefully people are picking up on the Masego I've been channeling...?]
Oh, yes, and I believe i was supposed to inform you that I am not in fact dead. I was curious as to what happens on the execution, this little experiment has helped greatly.
