    At this stage I am of the opinion that we may be better off killing two people and reducing the number of unknowns. It gives more information that way... if they both die, anyway. Not sure how Medo's going to deal with ties this game, but we're about to find out for sure. (Which is also another good thing to get out of the way early, when it isn't as crucial.)
    yeah but you also chance killing off more vanillas or potential specials :|. We have 40 people in the game and two sets of baddies.

    True. Though if Sabs isn't bullshitting well...nice going there with the last minute wait Sabs :P

    Yeah, well, he knew exactly the sort of attention his avatar would bring and could have switched out, even saying he was bowing to the popular will or something to make it less conspicuos. All in all, I just don't believe him.

    We should find out soon(ish) though, which I argue is a good thing. Much better knowing rather than finding out on Night 6 when it's a bigger deal and could turn the game.

    Night One.
    night1xh2.png

    The Fan at Valley Mouth.

    This image shows the intersection of a valley with the floor of a large impact crater. The valley appears to have transported sediment that was deposited on the crater floor when the flow slowed. As the eastern side of the lobate deposit appears to have been sheared off, it is possible that continuing flow from the valley eroded into its own deposits.


    ***

    “Quiet please, I’m trying to count,” Nadia shouted.

    The colonists had gathered in a tight group near the small pond that formed the centerpiece of the city park, and many conversed back and forth at high volume, their voices laced with fear and tension.

    “Everyone, can we please settle down?” John waved his hands over his heads to get attention. “Have we gotten everyone’s vote?” He had done his best to lead the group toward the person he thought most suspicious, but he was still nervous about the results.

    “Not warban’s!” a distraught colonist cried out. “Like I already told you, I found him in his bed this morning…he was dead…suffocated…” The colonist choked backed a sob and looked down at the ground as silence settled over the group.

    “Maya’s not here,” Sax said. “And Frank went to find her…”

    Nadia slapped down the last of the pieces of paper she had been counting.

    “Well, I guess we’ve reached a decision.”

    A fractured cry of anguish cut her off. The crowd turned, parting, to reveal Frank walking across the park, visiblehowl’s limp form draped across his arms. He laid her gently on the grass. The group of colonists drew together, packing in close to view the dead body of one of the most famous people on Mars.

    “Maya…” Michel whispered.

    “You bastard,” Frank said, focusing his blank stare on John. “You let her go off by herself. YOU LET HER GO OFF BY HERSELF.”

    John opened his mouth to reply but was silenced by the beep of his wristcom.

    “John? Are you there? It’s Phyllis.”

    John felt the heat of Frank’s gaze on his face as he looked down at his wrist. His voice cracked as he forced out, “What do you want?”

    “Oh, I see you know. I’m so very sorry John, but we had no other choice-”

    “YOU BITCH!” Frank screamed, lunging for John’s wrist. He pulled himself away before Frank could get to it, then turned it off.

    Suddenly a commotion broke out in the back of the crowd. A lump in his throat, John pushed his way through as someone screamed.

    Dac Vin lay face down on the grass, a red stone knife buried between his shoulders.

    Colonists began backing away, breaking off into small groups, when Arkady began to laugh. Quietly at first, then louder until he was almost barking.

    At his side, Nadia held up the piece of paper revealing the person who had received the most votes, by a margin of two. It read, “Dac Vin.”



    Dead:

    warban - Colonist
    visiblehowl - Maya Toitovna
    Dac Vin - Colonist



    Sending appropriate PM's now.

    I have found that, in the past, when it's not in the rules/rundown in the OP, the GM refuses to answer.

    We could have asked, sure... but this was just as easy, and I'm curious about both of the contenders and have no reason to believe either one to be not deserving of elimination. It's Day 1.

    Also, this way we can have some sort of idea if perhaps there are vote manipulators our there or mechanics for doing so.

    What didn't work, exactly?

    We found out that Dac Vin was just a Colonist, which is unfortunate, but at least it's something we know. We also know who voted for him and can see who they were trying to save and who they moved their votes from in order to vote for him. It's Day 1, yeah, but it can be an easy place to hide.

    We found out, possibly, that there are vote manipulation abilities out there. I would imagine that the RNG to break the tie would simply mean the eliminated player wins the vote by 1. Dac Vin won by 2 votes, indicating that something else may have been going on.

    So, that also lets us know that somone may have saved Sabs... and that Sabs may have been worth saving to someone? It's interesting, at the very least.

    So again, what didn't work?
    (We also got to find out what happens in case of a tie.)

    I saw that in the narration. I wanted to make you spell it out for other people who may have missed it so that the whole thing can't be used as ammunition against me later in arguments when I start talking about how someone saved Sabs using a manipulation ability. Either they subtracted votes from Sabs and could be anyone, or their vote counted for more than one and they voted for Dac Vin.

    This way, with you clearly spelling it out, no one can claim I have any special insider knowledge and use it as fuel to start a wasted bandwaggon on me.

    Thanks for the clarification, though.

    That's what didn't work by your little stunt (we had to ask afterwards, you were part of this conversation. . . ). Cool idea you had, but there appears to definitely be some vote manip going on behind the scenes (which I guess we also found out due to your move, so it was beneficial).

    Judging from the narration, I would say that Dav Vin was targeted by the Reds, for whatever reason, and that they got their kill and the vote just disappeared. That's why he shows up in the narration with RED STONE KNIFE in his back, before the vote leader is revealed.

    It's a toughie. She's a really political person in the books, involved in a number of relationships and leadership positions. I suppose you could stretch it to saying that perhaps she might be a guardian but that's doubtful. Perhaps some vote manipulation herself? It'd be the closest to someone whose book character has hands in many pies.

    Oh. Well, that wasn't even my main goal, but I didn't talk about it until after. I wanted to find out about vote manipulating abilities, if there were any in play. It seemed a ripe opportunity to learn.

    Looking at it... and going with the flavour from the Narration... warban and visiblehowl's votes both probably did not count. So, since visiblehowl voted for Dac Vin, that actually means that Sabs won the vanilla vote 7 to 6.

    But, Dac Vin ended up winning the final vote by 2 votes. This means there was at least three votes' worth of manipulation going on. So, somone or some people who voted for Dac Vin had their votes count as more or someone or some people were able to subtract votes from Sabs... or it was a combination of the two.

    There have been, in the past, roles where your vote for someone actually counts as a negative vote for them. I could also see an ability where someone simply targets a player and can subtract votes from that player. There is also the fairly basic multiplication of a single vote for someone, usually having it count as 2 or 3 instead of 1.

    Reds and TransNats are two separate groups in the novels.

    Judging from the narration, I would say that Dav Vin was targeted by the Reds, for whatever reason, and that they got their kill and the vote just disappeared. That's why he shows up in the narration with RED STONE KNIFE in his back, before the vote leader is revealed.

    Are the Reds the same as the TransNats? Seems to me we're fighting TransNats and Saboteurs... or am I confused?

    Reds and TransNats are two separate groups in the novels.

    Would the Reds be the name for the Saboteurs, then?

    As another vote manip idea, sometimes people can vote privately. Post a public vote in the thread, but then PM a private vote.

    From my limited knowledge of the book, they would be two separate factions. The Reds would likely be the Saboteurs, since they're against any alteration of the Martian landscape.

    I've never even heard of this in any Phalla.

    It's the TransNats and the Reds, isn't it?

    And you voted for Dac Vin, didn't you LaOs?

    I voted for Dac Vin at the last minute to create the tied situation between Sabs and Dac Vin at 7 votes each. At least, that's what I thought I was doing. It appears clear that certain things affect the vote count.

    Dying before the vote means your vote doesn't actually count.

    There is someone (are some people) who can manipulate the vote in some way.

    Ah yeah, I think that's come up in the past as well. In discussions, at least. I don't know that it's ever been used, but there have been lots of minis I haven't followed in CF lately.
