DrakeMarshall he/him Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 (edited) Friends, sharders, and gentlepersons, lend me your ears! I'll give them right back later I swear (kas said this during D6 but I aint gonna @ him lol) Quote There is no reason not to turn on Aut at this juncture, quite frankly. Unless he gives us one. Ta da!!! This is the part where I give you a reason! Shame on you all for needing Kas to point out to you that you needed one. Repeatedly. Dishonor. Dishonor on you, your family, your cow! I literally just truthfully claimed Serial Killer in front of everyone, acted like I owned the place and expected nobody to raise a finger, and you all went with it for most of a whole day until somebody told you to stop However I've had a reason not to kill me prepared all this time I just wasn't gonna give you one unless... Well, unless you were actually capable of voting for me enough that I'd have reason to. Which you didn't do for quite some time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ but here we are now. Finally. I probably shouldn't start my Big Pitch by insulting you all, but clearly, if I were a wise person we wouldn't be here for a multitude of reasons And if you were wise people you wouldn't need insulting So now that it's firmly established we've all been equally silly let's get down to serious business. I'm Bavadin. I surrender, suckers. However, I'm playing pretty nice right now, aren't I? I've been playing pretty nice, haven't I? Zero (0) Autonomy Charges have been spread around. Call me out on it if that's not true. And I've been... Pretty forthright with everything Also, six (6) elims are dead. Only two (2) of those were killed by the village executing them. Not to put too fine a point on it, but I think you could really use me. I think there's a solid chance the village would have already lost without some of the shots I made. So... Here's the deal. As previously mentioned, I can win with the Village. And I'm now willing to consider doing so. Enough of you have showed up to vote that I no longer like my odds here, so -- you've passed Autonomy's trial I didn't originally think it was worth considering. And yet. Against my expectation, even this late into the game, the Village Sudden Death win is actually still very possible. A grand total of three (3) Shards are out of containment, and everyone knows where all of them are. I have 2 of them. JNV has 1. If we agree to make it happen, to get all the Shards in containment, then there's no reason it couldn't. We just need to kill Hoid. If the Village Sudden Death happens at the same time as Autonomy outnumbers everyone, we both win together (me and the Village, that is -- Hoid doesn't). My conditions are pretty simple: 1. JNV wins. This means letting them do their thing in peace and giving them enough time to destroy Scadrial, which will take 2 more nights. 2. I am allowed enough Avatars to meet my outnumber requirements when the time comes. Do those things, and I'll help the Village achieve their Sudden Death win. (Yes, that does mean I'm volunteering to die eventually, since that is a requirement of the Village Sudden Death win condition. But I will still win by my chosen replacement Vessel satisfying the outnumbering win condition.) Oh, also, if you do kill me today... You might not like mopping up the consequences very much. I'm on Silverlight, you see. The same planet that almost everyone else is on. If I die today, both Odium and Autonomy will pass to random people. If RNG puts them in Hoidite hands, well... I believe that would mean the Village just loses. Even if it does go to Village hands, good luck tracking who has it, if they decide to go rogue with Shardic Power. If the new Autonomy Vessel decides to carry on what I've started, I don't think you'll be able to repel them, not with your numbers. Sincerely, I don't think it would be very good for the village for me to die today. I don't intend this as a threat, but I do rather think you should be aware of the likely consequences here. If you think this is a reasonable offer, I motion that we execute Wizard here, because I believe Wizard is Hoid (as does Stick, if that matters). Conveniently, Wizard also hasn't been voting, so this exe won't put you guys at a numerical disadvantage against me, which should instill some confidence that I'm dealing in good faith here. If you decide to turn down my offer, well, that's your right. Edited June 27, 2023 by DrakeMarshall 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashbringer he/him Posted June 27, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 LG95 Night Seven: The Wanderer and the Broker Lorn Haemtes had not been torn to shreds. Not yet. Someone had tried, in some darker night, but killing the bearer of a Dawnshard is no simple matter of glass knives and Odious Investiture. Even Shards feared it. Some all too much. Then again, Lorn feared the Shards. He might have to try and kill one today. The kindly Professor Uther had claimed to be Bavadin's new face. For a while none had responded to it, but now came the accusations. That Autonomy had ended them once, and could do so again. Uther instead directed them towards the one known as the Poet, one who had been quieter since late events. Accused them of being Hoid in disguise. And so the two faced off. The Poet and the Professor. The Wizard and the Marshall. The Wanderer and the Broker. The First Gem and the Pantheon of Dieties. Allegedly, of course. Although when the votes were cast, the Avatars of Autonomy certainly came in support of Uther. And when Lorn Haemtes told the Poet what the Last Word was, it was certainly Cephandrius who collapsed in front of him. * * * The Wandering Wizard was executed! They were Hoid! Vote Count: The Wandering Wizard (5): The Bald Brandon, JNV, DrakeMarshall, Walin, VOCALS, DRUMS DrakeMarshall (4): _Stick_, Szeth_Pancakes, |TJ|, Araris Valerian * * * Night Seven has begun!

Anyone actually looking in here or am I pasting this over and over again for nothing? You may only pass one Charge of Investiture or one Shard in a Passing action. Charges of Investiture (whether Autonomy Charges or other Charges) held by Autonomous Players do not count towards the Autonomous Sudden Death Win Condition. Multiple factions can win at the same time if they complete their (Normal or SD) win conditions at the same time. I don't think there's a way to get all 4 main factions to win at the same time, but if you all find one... congratulations? Invention's Investment Ability can be used on Avatars, which will grant Invention an Autonomy Charge. All actions are limited to once per cycle, unless otherwise noted (Autonomy's Shardic, Whimsy's Shardic, and Researcher returning Shards to Containment). Vessel Action and Vessel Shield do not stack. Vessels can "gain" them from other sources, but that only matters if they pass their Shard while they would still have Vessel Action/Vessel Shield from another source. Avatars can exist on the same Shardworld as each other. Shardworlds get a new Doc each time the player list on that Shardworld changes. Avatars and players will be put in the player list for each Shardworld Doc (i.e. you can't pretend you're not there). Shardworld presences are not publicized in thread. Hoid and Khriss's Conversions take place before Shardic Inheritance from Breaching (or other reasons). Consuming Investiture does take actions. Charges of Investiture that are used then Roleblocked (or otherwise fail) are lost, as are Charges of Investiture used on a Roleblocked Shardworld action. Hoid and Khriss do not lose Conversion Charges on Roleblocked or failed conversions. In the event that Hoid and Khriss target the same player for conversion, both conversions fail. The only abilities that contribute to Shardic Breaching are Researcher Siphons, Khriss's double-Siphon, and Hoid's Sabotage. Returned keep the alignment and win condition they died with when they Return. Valor Charges cannot be used on yourself. Worldhopping is only a Day action. Two players using actions to create 1-on-1 PMs with each other will consume both Charges/actions/etc and only create 1 PM. Avatars only count as players for the Autonomous win condition, not for other factions' win conditions. Avatars in Shardworlds and Ambition in the Cognitive Realm should speak in bold - other players should not (a bit for emphasis is okay, just don't write entire sentences). You cannot create PMs with Avatars. You cannot cut players in half. Whimsy has Breached. Ignore previous statement, Whimsy has not Breached. Ignore previous two statements, Whimsy will breach when it wants to. Ignore previous statement, Whimsy has not not not Breached. It's late. Lament you spared.

|TJ| he/him Posted June 27, 2023 Report Share Posted June 27, 2023 okay so hold on, for sudden death win - n7 (7-6) ruin destroys scadrial. ruin wincon completed. drake passes autonomy to someone. (i think it remains 7-6 @Ashbringer if bavadin passes autonomy to someone, will the receiver count as autonomous party if they have not used autonomy's powers? and after bavadin passes it, i assume they are still considered autonomous) solution edit: drake also passes odium to the same person d8 (7-6) we execute drake. we still don't win as shards are not contained and hoids partner is still alive. drake's odium goes to someone. (7-5) ruin gives up their shard for containment. new autonomy creates an avatar to make it (7-7) (they get intent converted (+1) and create an avatar (+1) n8 (7-7) new odium gives up their shard. new autonomy both creates creates a new avatar and gives up the shard for containment. 7-8, outnumber done. shards contained. problem is if odium goes to the evil person. so in order to prevent that, drake needs to use vessel action tonight and send both autonomy and odium to the same person. n7 - drake passes both odium and autonomy to a person. d8 - kill drake. new odium containment. ruin containment. n8 - new autonomy avatar creation. new autonomy containment should be fine. and as the only previous holder of both odium and autonomy at the same time, you should clearly pass it to me :P.

Creating an Avatar doesn't contribute towards Autonomous Intent Conversion since it isn't Autonomy's shardic ability technically it's Autonomy's investment ability Autonomy can only have 6 Avatars, I have 5 right now, so creating 2 additional Avatars is impossible. 52 minutes ago, |TJ| said: n8 (7-7) new odium gives up their shard. new autonomy both creates creates a new avatar and gives up the shard for containment. 7-8, outnumber done. shards contained. Putting a shard in containment takes both a day action and a night action to accomplish. Only splintered shards can be contained in 1 action. None of these are particularly insurmountable issues, though. Again, you have the right idea. Mostly the difference between my projection and yours is "the game ends N9 instead of N8."
