Well, from the looks of things, Speedchuck has got his own MO, and is willing to vote out fellow Alliance members to further it.

I don't know who Speed's referring to with this phrase, but it could include anyone.

Now, he wants Bass out. A good way to stop him from including you and me in that "certain people" group is by not helping him. And, mayhaps, voting for someone like Spacedaisy.

That's my pitch.

Earthbound Misfit

Schunk

Mediocrates blinked his eyes, his vision hazy. A sound had woken him up, a sound from the table in front of him. Schunk

Focusing his eyes, he could see one of the Earth elements, a small shovel in its hands, digging, while the other remaining elements stood around him, sombre and serious. The Earth element, named Bass, wiped angry tears from his rocky eyes, leaning in and digging deeper.

"It's time," said Holy. "My child, you go now to your final rest."

Bass shook his head, "No, it's, it's not deep enough," he looked around, desperate. "I can't-"

"And yet you must," intoned Psionic emotionlessly. Psionic focused on Bass' mind, taking control and soothing him. "Fill it in."

Bass complied, as he had to, shovelling loads of Earth back into the grave he had just dug. Soon, the grave was full again, full of Earth that comprised his body, in a shallow patch of ground that was also Bass. Gravesite, grave, and corpse all in one body, the first Earth silently passed on.

Bass_the_Clever has been lynched. He was Earth.

It is now Night 5.

According to the post, it was a Psionic/Earth combo, and the way it was written seems to suggest that it was a mutual fusion?

Earth/Psionic killed Spacedaisy aswell. I count 1 Earth and 2 Psionic alive. Easiest way to get rid of that NK is to lynch the Earth, right?
INH: You said you're Earth. Did you kill Spacedaisy? Who do you think should be lynched?

There will be only one winner. Unless that changes.

Or perhaps nutella combined with something that allowed eventual resurrection? What do you think, nutella?

The second one.


I agree that lynching INH to eliminate that NK combo is a pretty good idea. Breaking up the two Psionics sounds like a somewhat reasonable alternative, but I'm not convinced by any means that they can win together, so I'm more concerned with surviving the night, and as long as Earth and both Psionics are around INH can just alternate them as targets and kill every night (whereas if we lynch one Psionic today we won't know whether it's the one INH targeted last or not, and chances are he'd steer the lynch in the way that would allow him to alternate targets). INH, I'm voting for you now, unless we can strike some kind of deal that involves you killing somebody other than me, because, you know, eliminating other players is always nice.

Here's something that's been bothering me. The "unless that changes" clause. My strong suspicion is that two people can get to the end together and both win, as long as they're the same element.

The only remaining pair is Quin and Speed, and they've been pretty much in sync this entire game.

I think breaking up this potentially game-ending power couple should be our top priority.

Quin wrote: ↑Fri Jun 02, 2017 5:40 pm INH, as it stands, you've got three powers up your arsenal.

1. A night kill
2. A night kill deflection
3. Taking yourself off the lynch poll

Not my favourite person to keep alive. Thoughts?

How am I a massive threat? I targeted Glorfindel Night 1 and can't be lynched one time.

I targeted DH Night 2 and killed Wilgy.

I'm just playing the game- no more and no less than anybody else is. You're trying to make up "threatening" people to get others to do what they want. I'm not a threat. I'm the opposite of that. I'm someone who came in declaring that he would help someone else win. That person isn't on your little squad.

So hell yeah, I'm a threat to your squad. If I get night killed, so what? I'm used to that and have no control over that. What I don't want to see is your pissy little "Anybody can work with us but not really" team get an advantage over the outsiders.

But the outsiders are voting for other outsiders, so eh.

My "pissy little team" which you took instant offense to for no discernable reason other than petty spite, even though it wasn't targeting you, and you could have easily joined the damn alliance if you were that damn threatened by it, wasn't in direct conflict with you until you decided to start one.

Also, I feel like we have a difference of opinion. We both keep reiterating two opposite viewpoints.

I say the Alliance is open to everyone and only a threat to people who don't want to join.

You say that the Alliance is a closed-off aristocracy and force some weird "insiders, outsiders" dichotomy.

Since I'm actually in the Alliance, I feel like I know more than you about what it actually is. Yet, you keep on keeping on.

I hope it was worth tanking both yours and Elo's game in an effort to tank mine.

You're not tanking my game. My game is never tanked in LMS. I go in and do exactly what I want, every time, free from the constraints of worrying about good judgment.

And do you know what?

I have never once betrayed someone in LMS. Not once. I've always been straight with people.

So what does this mean, outsiders?

I have told you this much:

1. I am doing my best to ensure one person wins (everybody will assume that's Eloh, but it isn't- if she wins, great, but I don't go out of my way to help or hinder her in these).

2. I've already disclosed that the person I am working toward helping isn't in the clique.

Therefore, given all that, would you, outsiders, rather burn a lynch on me when you could be voting for the people I don't want to win? Wouldn't you rather force them to find a way to Night kill me instead of you?

The one difference between me and everybody else here is that I'm not here for myself, and I've demonstrated that every single LMS game I've ever participated in.

Yet I have more votes than INH, Mr. Manipulator.

Y'all have fun getting backstabbed. I'll be around to see some of it.
