    Certainly helped me out a bit.

    Spill. We might have overlooked something you noticed.

    I would convert sk/bh to befgin with then look at a newbie.

    But if nk is skunk, which is possobpe, she's more likely to convert tusk or fixxxer or someone she feels she can manipulate by being a woman and them a man.

    So i guess look at who you think is nk then think like them.

    Why would the Tars get a kill? There are no powers outside prizes.

    Just an (admittedly out there) theory I was working on.

    It's most likely a prize though, I agree. But I'm tinfoiling all possibilities

    Mods posted a cloud pic between conversion and Clara’s kill. Any clue what that was about?


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,387 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    I think the odds say avoid the convert


    So imagine we narrow down the convert to 10 people, group A, leaving us with the other 10, Group B. (Yes for the purposes of simplicity I’m ignoring Clara’s death)

    If the convert is in group A we’re more likely to find the NK in Group B.

    It is dependant on the odds of the convert being on group A being over 50%, which obviously we hope it will be because we know the people involved and try and rationalise the NKs thoughts

    So ...... whos bang in the middle, who would you pick if its you?

    Me, personally?

    Going off Keith's post count and percentages, I'd have probably gone with some people either side of me. Two either side if Guffy, Drump, Ecto and GnR. Cut Drump cause then I'd have to have changed stances on my susipcions of him from yesterday, but I had zero interaction with any of those other three.

    But that's me, personally. A higher poster like Necro would probably choose a lower poster like Stu, Mick or 2D to balance himself out. Vice versa too, a lower poster would probably look for a high poster.

    My main worry right now though is as a village, I'd be kind of worried we're dangerously close to lynching a high posting experienced player on the back of a fear its who "we" (as in, each individual poster's thoughts gathered into a collective obvious decision) would convert. Which will possibly lead to a really efficient villager getting lynched tonight.

    Why could NK and convert not be in the same grouping?

    Nah, it's not happening. I'm just interested in who people choose or possibly more importantly who they don't mention (I'm aware it's a good few but eventually we can start to get a pattern from multiple days of convert talk, FFAs, readslists etc)

    Have we accepted that teams don’t have a BR to communicate in? I think somebody said that but can’t remember why they suggested it.

    So each prize could be like a peek, a Kill and a BG protect (or something like that), for each team to win. But at the moment they don’t know which team they are on. Or maybe there are more kills, I mean we can’t go all week with one kill and the NK converting, the game would never finish!

    Are you the convert fixxxy?

    Taking out house members and reducing the numbers to achieve parity would be a good tactic too...

    I don't know who anyone else is except me though, so it would be a pretty flawed plan.

    Not the convert.

    They could but the odds of the NK being in either group is even

    No assigned roles :P

    Teams don't get a backroom until the Night King has been whacked.

    Which makes the houses playing for themselves a bit redundant at this stage

    This is something too.

    Actually, I probably got the answer to this question as I was writing...

    I was going to say, if someone won a bullet for a prize (in this case, it looks like a bullet that activated at 10am), why not come out and say "I have a bullet, who should we kill" and let the village make the choice together.

    But then it kind of looks like the prize at least went to someone in House SexyDragonLady. So I guess revealing you had the prize would also have revealed your house in this case....I presume if someone from House Emo Teenagers or House Incest won, the kill would have been tweaked?


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,387 ✭✭✭✭Green&Red


    If we’re lynching a convert then we’re not lynching the SK

    The counter argument is that there’s three of them now, strong core


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    So Clara was killed by a Tar because it was by dragon? But there’s no reason to suppose they knew Clara’s role, is there?

    I took no assigned roles to mean there is no seer or BG, but isn’t a dragon kill a role? I mean don’t the prizes effectively give people a role of sorts with the power they get?

    So what’s the stop the prizes being a seer peak or Protection etc? Do you think all prizes are kills?


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    As in, Tars don’t have specific beef with the Brotherhood do they?

    Nope, I firmly believe protection and seer peeks are also potential prizes.

    I'm kind of on board with Lord's theory that - say a kill prize - might be flavoured to a house member though


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    But also, unless they already know each other, they could easily have accidentally targeted one of their own?

    Nah they could have just had suspicions on Clara and just swung for the fences.

    Sucks for her though :( That's two games in a row (long games) she's been N0ed

    The OP says...

    "There will be competitions each day to determine if anyone should win prizes. Prizes mean powers. These powers may be character target specific, so please consider this before revealing your character. "

    I wonder if it's not that, say, a Peek, a bullet and a protect were awarded yesterday.

    As much as someone won a prize, and because they specifically were the character they were, they got a free kill?

    Dragon fire is so very specific for a kill description. There's only one group who have access to dragons in the show....

    It's a good point. How much should house alignment matter at this point?

    How about the village making some suggestions to the ether if people really dont want to out their houses?

    Do we the village think dandy should get BG if someone is around?
    Do we the village think that someone in particular is worth a peek?

    If we're going this way with the back story than what of QBs claim to be allied to Cat Stark?

    Forum Mod

    DublinAndy, you would do well to reread the rules of this game. Rule #1 to be specific.

    If you have an issue with anything on thread pm me.

    Any more disrespect to fellow players or mods and you will be removed from the game. Improve your behaviour and you are free to continue playing.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    So, back at PC now, so I can give a few specific names. I'd have picked to convert: Bounty, Choccy, Clara - somewhere around there on the post list.

    I'm not sure what to make of it tbh. At this point it's clear as day it's Sansa Brienne serves.

    Unless they're taking the undead Cat Stark storyline from the books and inserting it, but the books are completely seperate from the show at this point so :confused:
