There really isn't anything that I can say that hasn't already been said, which is why I haven't posted. I would like to see any investigative information that we gained at night, but I can understand why that would be risky. Right now, I don't have very much to go on at all asides from speculating roles and their powers. I'd like to wait for any results that come up from Night 1 before pounding a vote on someone.

There, I'm breaking my day 2 silence, Razenth.

I agree with what's been said about playing this game in general. It feels like every situation in which a townie would find themselves under pressure and have to claim/do something is detrimental to town (and the individual's faction) as a whole. Even masons wouldn't claim to back up their members due to the win mechanic.. The power-only claims would benefit scum more than town, in my opinion, since they can easily decide on the information who they should be killing first.

Surely there must be someone who can investigate and is pro-Han?

If you people exist, work your magic.


I'm not too sure about trusting the investigator when he has his own kingdom's concerns.

Agreed. Although power-only claims gets around belonging to different kingdoms, scum aren't differentiating between the kingdoms when picking their targets.
Maybe there's something we can do with the names of other characters given in some of our roles.

tbh, I don't think we're going to get anywhere if we just sit around and wait wait wait. Some Imma shake things up a bit.

XIKUE! I CHALLENGE YOU TO A DUEL! PREPARE YOURSELF!
Rika2011-02-25 02:12:26
Why is Xikue again?
Razenth2011-02-25 02:13:18
The person who posted above me and beat Casilu in a duel.
Unknown2011-02-25 02:59:38
Haven't we already learned that we get no information from this? Why am I getting dueled again too?

I find your jumpiness this day phase to be rather scummy.
Razenth2011-02-25 03:05:37
I find your desire to drag this out so long enough that we lose momentum and everyone forgets that they're actually playing this game rather scummy. There are now 19 players. Assuming 6/6/4/3, a random kill has a better chance of whacking someone who will eventually be a threat.

We know roleclaims will do nothing but help scum and other factions. We know that power claims will do nothing but help scum. So what else is there? Just sit around for another week hoping something happens? Well here's something happening.

The annoying thing is that in this game, being scummy is basically meaningless.
Razenth2011-02-25 03:15:53
Yeah, because to 3/4ths of the other players you ARE scum.
Unknown2011-02-25 03:32:41
You know that Shamarah's point against scummy actions would apply to your "reason" too, right?

I find your interest in dueling someone who's already dueled before to be quite useless, especially when we've determined scum have more to gain from such duels. I'm not going to willingly give away my vote to someone so uncertain of his own actions, what with your voting/unvoting.
FOR THE SANCTITY OF THE HAN, I HEREBY ORDER ARMY TO ATTACK RAZENTH. SURROUND HIS MEN. THERE WILL BE NO PARDONING OF REBEL COWARDS. *cue banner waving dramatically*
Rika2011-02-25 03:39:00
Well, thing is you can't vote for him (or anyone at all) unless you accept the duel and win.
Unknown2011-02-25 03:41:10
Which is why I'm accepting his duel. Note mud-slinging with use of the word rebel.

Pretty much.
Arix2011-02-25 05:01:23
If you're going to issue/accept duels, please bold or otherwise alter the issue/acceptance to make it easier on Tekora. Kthxbai
Razenth2011-02-25 05:05:00
Besting the general who defeated the infamous leader of the Yellow Turbans only brings me more glory when I win! Hmph!

Drums roll and horns blare as Razenth and Xikue ride forth from their armies to face off against each other, Xikue hanging the helmet of Casilu upon her spear as a trophy of her earlier victory.

The two generals exchange some rather choice words before breaking off from each other and riding around to pick up speed before turning their steeds towards each other and spurring them until they reach full speed!!

The ensuing duel is nothing short of breath-taking as the two generals exchange blows for the sum of 50 passes without neither gaining an advantage. Another 50 passes ensue, again with neither general attaining the upper hand.

Eventually, Xikue grows arrogant and begins to taunt Razenth as they spar, dropping her guard. Exploiting this chance, Razenth prepares to deliver a vicious riposte, but suddenly, Arix appears out of nowhere to block Razenth's blow just before it makes contact with Xikue. Stunned by the close call, Xikue breaks off from the duel and retreats to her lines as Razenth is similarly stunned and glares at the retreating Xikue and the withdrawing Arix before returning to the head of his own army, victorious.

Razenth's vote counts for double for the rest of the day.

As a result of Arix's intervention, Xikue's ability to vote remains intact.
Arix2011-02-25 05:50:39
We really don't need to lose votes, especially if Razenth is possibly scum

Razenth, hold your blade!
Tekora2011-02-25 05:57:37
Please note, duel events have changed as a result of Arix's intervention.
