Oh yes, I'm leaving early morning tuesday EST and will be without internet if you guys think that's too much, you might want to replace me. Sorry, but it's home time! wub.gif

My report for last night: Dugan morphed and seemed to target Kiradawea, then was apparently redirected to Furien, who was protected. Did Relm target Dugan/Furien?


I attempted to redirect actions against Strago towards Setzer.

This is confusing. Need time to digest it.

Oh yeah, I'm going to get highly suspicious of anyone who votes. I'll forgive Silferras for now since Xavius made the announcement after, but anyone who votes now gets a huge FOS.

That is confusing. Looking at your role info, I can only guess that it hit the 25% fail chance after it redirected at Setzer, and Mog got the protection due to his own power (beneficial outcome).

Actually, I think that part is pretty clear. If there's a % chance that Mog can receive anything beneficial, he will ALWAYS receive it, so the 25% chance is made moot if it is a desirable effect (functionally 100%). No?

I thought that only applied if the random chance ever fell to him (i.e. the protect would hit a random target, protect was beneficial, hence he got it), not that it affected all chance in a way that will always benefit him.
Unknown2009-12-20 06:21:14
Xavius can clarify if he thinks it's not too much information. Otherwise yeah, your previous scenario is what occurred.
Unknown2009-12-20 06:23:31
Hmm, okay. What was confusing, then?

That was a general confusion. I stopped reading posts to post and have only been half paying attention. Hence, the need to actually read. tongue.gif

So what DID we find out?

At the least, it sounds like Xavius is holding back certain details. Did not see the skill improvement coming, in your case.
Diamondais2009-12-20 06:35:52
Who has skill improvement abilities. This is quite confusing at the moment. laugh.gif

That we're confused. Thats... about it.

Xavius does. He "improved" my abilities, though I use that term loosely, and he also gave Casilu another power due to her flirting. Not sure either is really an "improvement", to be honest.

I protected Kira.

Confirmed. I was watching Kira last night.

So we had two people roleblocking/protecting Shaddus?

My report for last night: Dugan morphed and seemed to target Kiradawea, then was apparently redirected to Furien, who was protected. Did Relm target Dugan/Furien?

Something must have gone right if no one died, though I'm confused by why Dugan would target Kiradawea to begin with if he found her so suspicious. Thankfully Ultros was either thwarted by roleblock (doubt he would target Mog) and/or didn't go for Kiradawea this early. I'm hoping this shows that Dugan finally woke up and did the right thing for town, so I'll let up on him for now and vote: Romertien before I forget. His/her posts have been bothering me for a while. If Swordtech hasn't been nerfed too badly, hint early and I'll come back to unvote.

Since Shiri turned up town, we should probably also consider what he said before he died in more detail. Will go back to that later to take a look when I have the time.

I think Dugan tried to target Kira for protection, and Vendetta tried to redirect targets away from Kira. Dugan's power is 'immunity to nightkills', and I think he was trying to save the aqua-rake since Shiri is le dead. So yeah, I'll bet what happened is Vendetta's chance redirect caused Dugan's targetted protection to go away from Kira to whoever is Mog, since there's the random % chance, and protection is beneficial. Thus, Mog was made immune to NK's, even though Dugan tried to guard Kira. Yeah... I think that's right.

Since it's where I was before, I'm down with a VOTE: ROMERTIEN.

Also, @Xavius: What's to stop everyone from doing a vote self;unvote to protect from your new definition of Quadraslam/slash?
Also, I won't be here on Tuesday due to travelling, and then will only be on once a day. Just an alert. I'd like to stay in the game though.

The fact that you've now got a big fat FOS TERVIC from me.

Just because people don't know how to read.

This was actually addressed in an earlier post, but at this point, I don't want to give modly confirmation on anything that may or may not have happened at night. All such questions are now filed in the "should've asked earlier" folder.

...except for Rika. Casilu got hers from a written detail, but living scum and a dead townie have both expressed displeasure at the power. Ad hoc rebalancing.

Nothing at all. The inactivity kill shouldn't be something that the active fear!

Fair enough on both counts. I might go snoop in earlier posts to see once I have the time.

Sorry, distracted by Gaudifax and Touhou.

Vote: Romierten, vote still stands as it was yesterday.
