If Sorsha is forced to vote herself, how could FZ. have targeted you with extra weight vote?

It looks like that post was a reaction to Matt voting FZ. I'm not sure it's as foreboding as you are reading it.

If that chain of reaction is true, then she said "Now Sorsha will come and vote for herself."

Not "Sorsha came and voted for herself."
She said "Sorsha can come in and vote for herself". A slight difference.
Why would Sorsha "come in" and choose to "vote for herself", if she was leading 2-1, before voting?

Re: Day 12 ~ 2015 Game of Champions

They say the wolf running up the mountain is hungrier than the wolf standing on top. Well, I don't know if it's an actual saying or a proverb of some sort, I just read a tennis player use it in one of his motivational speeches. Not sure how it relates to a sportsman currently winning everything, over and over again, but that's a different story.

This story is about how I pretty much felt in my own endeavour, during this ascent, one that lasted days beyond keeping track. I wish I could say I was never motivated or determined to accomplish this in the first place, but it would be, at least in part, a lie. Even others, whilst trailing far behind me on the same path, have noticed it. Often, during the cold nights, I even had the impression of hearing anxious, urgent howls, coming from the top, the more I advanced into the heights.

Truthfully, I never started with such ambitions. In the beginning, I was too self-absorbed in performing as the jester of Snowdin Town, painting everyone's faces red in their sleep, ringing the church bells to disturb their midday chatter or evening prayers all the same, all in order to reveal myself to everyone as the stranger in dead clothes, the seer beyond the living, the witness beyond the dying, the vermillion clad unparalleled spaghettore. Only after being pitchforked by everyone, transforming into my real self and making a run for the Waterfall, to watch everything unfold from a safe distance, did the opportunity arise.

On the other side of the cascades, the path then revealed itself to me...GOAT Mountain, rarely traceable behind its ominous weather and thick veils of fog, destined only to enlighten the most gifted of the high posters. And also seduce them all with the one true objective. A summit into uncharted highs. The highest anyone has ever reached: col 1,450. Most have merely heard stories, but I happened to be on the same expedition when that was achieved. I myself could only accomplish two thirds of such a distance, before having to resign myself to the challenge coming to an end. We all returned and kept the legend alive in our tales, but the legend himself chose never to return and was never heard of again.

And so, with the best head start I could have ever hoped for and another fortnight of cycles to take advantage of, with no more perils to hinder my destiny and death itself seemingly interrupted from ever sharpening its scythe on my neck, not to mention in the best shape a disemboweled vermillion caped immortal skeletton could be, I found myself emboldened to attempt the ascent once more. Foolish would it have been, however, to believe the path itself would have now been cleared of obstacles of its own kind. And indeed did my spirit and form waiver at times: detours marked with "RL" signs that would only keep you from advancing or trick you into taking the wrong turns, ghosts or competitors from other valleys, challenging me to stay ahead (most notably a rogue climber named Baddie with such reputation, he was trademarked as... MacBaddie, plus one Darth Busty in his finest dark coloured bullsuit gear)... and the howls; the howls from above, alerting me that someone awaits up there, on the throne.

Yet I stayed determined, keeping doubts and challengers altogether at bay, finding the strength to keep on keeping on. And then I arrived. Col 1,450. The place of legends. And of one legend in particular. To my surprise, the wolf metaphor turned into the sight of a real stage, a small plateau atop the ridges. Awaiting me was no conquering wolf, though, but an old man, seemingly at piece with himself, seated at a rock table, drinking sake from a masu cup.

"Is it really you?", I asked right away, unable to hide the panting in my voice.

"Indeed it is", the man calmly replied.

"You seem different", I stated the obvious in moronic fashion.

"Indeed I am", he said. "Things are different around these places."

"And beyond this place?", I said, my eyes inadvertedly turning to the path continuing behind him.

"That I cannot say", he pondered.

"You mean to say you never stepped further?"

"There is nothing further, once your challenge concludes. As you will soon find out yourself", he countered.

"Still", I insisted, "that can only mean there's still time for me to venture further ahead."

"If that is what you desire...", he responded.

"Why wouldn't it be?", I asked, increasingly bemused, yet this time, he did not say anything. I couldn't really comprehend the situation, but most of all his demeanor. There was no resignation in the tone of his vote, but almost true detachment. I walked towards him at the rock table, to at least take off my backpack and supplies and catch my breath. He proceeded to take another sip from his cup.

"...Where on earth did you even find sake? Did you bring it with you back then?"

"There are many things that cannot be explained around here.", he proclaimed.

"So why shouldn't I go forwards?", I asked once more. "Why didn't you? Why didn't you return, otherwise?"

"I once climbed the same path you did, just now. And the feeling of accomplishing that was no doubt immense. But then it wears off and you realize, you have done nothing but look ahead, at the lonely steps you will take, one at a time, instead of looking back, at those you left behind. I doubt your perspective right now was any different", he retorted.

"But...! You didn't leave anyone behind. You helped all of us achieve something along the way", I reminded him. "Why shouldn't I keep helping them myself?"

"That is illusory, I'm afraid", he replied. "This is a place of loneliness, not of gathering. Your ascent was your own, whilst others perished. You supported them, but you also created a huge distance, whose effects cannot compensate for anything. They're soon bound to forget you, give up following your words or reading your actions, and so does your focus also shift. Forwards, not backwards. On your own, instead of in return for others." He paused for a second, eyes closed in deep thought, but then he opened them and for the first time looked me in the eyes. "You and I... the few of our kind to reach such summits... whom death cannot even grace. We're meant to realize when our own challenge should come to its natural end."

"So what am I supposed to really do? Just give up?" I cried out.

"Back from where you came, deep into the woods, there is still a war going on, fought by the last remaining souls. It is too late for you to head back and save the outcome, because of how much distance you took, in your own conquest.", he explained. But then, he also added: "What you can do is to observe. To witness the outcome. To acknowledge what you achieved and how its resolution lies in your hands."

I suddenly felt torn apart. His words shouldn't have really made any sense. One step. One human step and I could go beyond... beyond anyone. But in these vain efforts of mine, was it not true that...

"You must be right.", I said to him. "Despite my best intentions, my goals were never other than my own. At times, I even felt slightly ashamed of my methods... whereas your posts had depth and involvment, mine kickstarted in a big way, by simply bantering my way into trouble and making everyone tense..."

"Well, I wouldn't insist on giving such meaning to our individual endeavours, but..."

"I constantly thought I was there to help, but in truth their fight remained their own and all I did was to keep posting", I further meditated on the issue. "I could slowly feel them not being following in my footsteps anymore, not listening or processing the entirety of what I could offer, and myself losing touch with the entire scenery at times. Forgetting faces and intentions behind their masks. Failing to hear clearly anymore the language in which they speak, imply and signal to themselves. Failing to connect anymore."

The old man said nothing, leaving me in silence to judge my actions.

"So I should stop, then", I said. "I am not worthy of stepping further, for I will find nothing but myself on the same road to nowhere on which I started in the first place. There is no story they will tell of me. There is only the endeavour they each have to go through and the future ones they'll keep on going through."

"Have a seat besides me", the old man welcomed me.

And so I did. I sat next to him and he took another masu, to share with me some of his sake, as we then looked towards the valley, back in Snowdin, a place that looked devastated from the ongoing clashes, but in which you could still see a light flickering, with the determination of the few souls left standing. And despite its remoteness and high, rarefied air, I could still hear myself surrounded by the sounds and the touch of different sensations, for which to be grateful. This was no isolated, lifeless whereabout, after all. It was actually quite a beautiful place. Birds could still be heard singing, flowers surrounding the plateau were blooming... in a place like this, kids like myself...

...could just as well stop.

3J was civ. Lorab was Noses. Wilgy actually VOTED for MM.

So who does that leave us with?

I'm not saying I'm definitely going to switch back, but you can't ignore Wilgy's switch that day.

What's an alignment switch?
Zebra's role had some kind of trickery with faking alignments. I'm asking MM if he thinks Team Llama had something similar.
Which would explain why you think she's good...
Perhaps. I also happen to believe I know which game her role is from, which would fit with her being on Team Llama, IMO.

Still, though, is it possible two teams could seem players?
Zebra was not a seemer. So there is a window left for a seemer.

If you hint at the role being Llama compatible, then that should settle it. I don't believe it would be in Sorsha's advantage, if bad, to reveal herself as good, but as named after a Llama compatible role.

Well, I hope we've done the right thing. There doesn't seem to be a lifeline for Sorsha, either way. This silence is such a unique sight, it makes no sense as a night power. Her ISO, up to presumably bussing motel and inevitably bussing Mac too, tends to speak in terms of team-saving movement opportunities. If baddie, she probably also got the memo that her vote is worth poopers toDay and resorted to faking a silent stance and letting the other candidates rip each other apart as last measure.

I went to the first page to check who this Napoleon person is and I don't see that role :confused:
It's an extrapolation from all the baddie/indy roles in Llama's eligible games, a list I already posted Even Matt mentioned it.

But yeah, you're clearly not paying attention to anything I'm writing. Oh well. :sigh:

Being silenced is one thing. Being silenced and vote-blocked at this stage would be fucked up.

If you mean as a night poll effect, then yes. Gross.
I have reason to believe her vote is not helpful for her. I might have finally done something good.

Re: Day 12 ~ 2015 Game of Champions

DAY 7

Wilgy... banter about Mac; then strongcivreads him (and bea); plans to vote Draco or DH, based off LC's list; wary of MM; rebuttal against DH; nitpicks Dom's role; banter with MM voting him; vexed at being called a non-contributor; GTHs: motel bad, Mac civ, Matt-Sorsha-FZ all civ; wants to push a Boom lynch (talks with Mac, MM about it, later bea, and of course Sorsha)
[NIGHT 7] rebuttals, turns on Sorsha; calls Sorsha and Matt teamies; suddenly wonders what FZ is up to
motel... checks in, hardly manages to ketch-up, votes MM
Mac... votes MM... aw hell he was insanified... skip! roots for Boomslang lynch though or MM or, suddenly, FZ; GTHs: Wilgy not bad, Matt bad, Sorsha good, motel Willow Rosenberg; keeps telling the thread not to vote Wilgy

----

FZ... ugh, question cursed... wants to look at low posters (including Sorsha), wary of trusting MM; wants DH to talk more; questions Drac and Boomslang; wary of either Mac or LC; votes Wilgyson
Matt... begins MM crusade based on Dom's legacy; questions Mac voting Boomslang; lobby for MM lynch and Boom save
Sorsha... feels ok about Wilgy and juliets (but inserts second-guessing comment), shrugs at motel; plans to look at Dom's legacy, comes back with weaksauce comments; doesn't want to vote Wilgy or MM, votes Boom at Wilgy's request
[NIGHT 7] spooked by Wilgy's comment, considers him "turning on her"; banter denies allegations of mafia, claiming she'll have the last laugh come endgame

====

Wilgy's GTH is adorable. Buss on motel, good on Macky; also, pretty inspired to have placed all three candidates right now as civ, whether intentionally so or involuntarily. Mac's GTH is even more merciful with his teamies: Wilgy is good, motel is whatevs. This gives me the vibe of team's spirit in which bussing, creating mindtricks and such weren't the main MO.

Ok, so we all know this was Sorsha's worst Day, in terms of activity and her vote. What else can we draw out? The FZ-Mac antagonism is so recurrent, it makes me doubt it could have been cooked for so long, at such regular intervals. Wilgy was worth saving, so Sorsha could earn the point for doing such an endeavour. FZ. sinking him further or Matt being cold on the issue, for the sake of preserving his integrity, doesn't strike me as equally plausible, except for intense tinfoil/mindgames.

Nvmd. Yeah, I could sort of see protect+NK, then silencefake shenanigans piling up a bit too much on Sorshy's side.

Granted, if she does break out of silence and speak, she's as good as dead right now.

Actually, if Bea thought you were the baddie why would she redirect the kill if it would only lead to another one of us dying? Could the redirection be shifted back to the person she was targeting? That is the only reason why she would target you, isn't it?
That's what I'm thinking. bea thinks I'm the last baddie and targets me, my power gets redirected, and then and only then, is it possible Sorsha is even silenced.
So you're the silencer or wtf am I reading? :rolleyes:

Re: Day 12 ~ 2015 Game of Champions

I just don't get a silencer that never silenced. If it were motel, I'd understand, but it can only be one of three active players. What's the point in never using that throughout an entire game?

Fuck it. I'll temp vote Sorsha until MM returns with his thoughts.

Given how one of our hosts says silencing is his least favorite game mechanic, I'm finding it hard to believe that Sorsha is silenced at LYLO when there hasn't been a silenced person all game (again, as far as we know).
I know you like making these crazy connections, but Hosts' dislike for something and them creating a silencer, that could, in principle, silence someone on Lylo Day has little to nothing to do with each other. What, you're suggesting SVS or TH simply forbid the player to silence anymore on Lylo? Well, what has the silencer done until now, then?

Also, don't resort to outside meta. Keep it in this game or in relevant meta from past games, not from "what's your favourite mafia pasttime" forums. :SVS:
Well I doubt they would let that be a result of a nightpoll option. Having that role in the game is one thing, but randomly punishing someone to be silenced at this stage would be rude and unlikely.
Ah ok, I get that. Yes, I probably wouldn't insert such night power effects for a subsequent lylo phase. Heck, sometimes in previous games (prolly THM), I even remember pleading with whoever had such powers to consider taking a break from them, near endgame, as to not accidentally inflluence the outcome in a random, negative way.

Fair enough.

Could sound fair enough. Then again, zebra could not have canceled out Dom's power, if Dom could only read the "description" (this hasn't been confirmed or debunked and prolly never will). So a godfather in the opposite mafia would make this particular team stronger than zebra's.

Also, same answer I gave to FZ. You don't have anything to take out of my reads, you just do you.

If you're not going to use my recap to, on one hand, defend (or redefend) your stance and faults or, on the other, focus on which of the other two looks the worse, then resort to what you're already doing, figuring out via live talk what to do.
