    If you want, you could interrogate me tonight. Then I would be proven just a lowly Shu soldier.

    Edit- adding my analysis again

    The benefits to this would be that we could focus our vig kills on our rebels and Wu, while Wei can do the same to themselve. With one faction down it will be easier for us to focus our attention on Wei when Wu is out of the way.

    Apparantly Wu wants to be our ally as well by looking at their thread. We need a diplomat to handle this. I'll do it if no one objects.

    Wu-Shu eh?

    Wushu, fyi, is the word for Chinese martial arts in general. Convenient.

    If you are indeed a soldier, you wouldn't be unduly harmed by interrogation.

    I support that idea.

    It would, however, be preventing me from gaining any powers later in the game. This could prove bad in the long haul.

    But if you want to do it, I'm up for it. Then I am a proven good guy and can be used as such.

    Edit- Wei's have offered a bandwagon of Precisionk for a show of good faith.

    Edit 2- The reason I suggest Wei is that most of the guy's who make good spreadsheets are on their team. I also think Wu is a little to chaotic for a good alliance. I think Shu would be willing to hear from both sides, however.

    I don't see that it necessarily proves anything good or bad. Maybe there is a village idiot type role for the red vote?

    But since you're actually volunteering I feel compelled now.

    Thanks for volunteering, !Thetheroo

    Both Wei and Wu have their heads at Shu's feet... and we know not which one will lunge at our hearts first.

    Actually probably not. We'll see what happens but there's signs in other threads as well of a possible village idiot that wants to be interrogated.

    I'll likely be changing if I have a better target, we have time.

    If Thetheroo is actually a jester type role, then he has played this very well.

    If there were such a role, however, I'd put my money on Zot. I know he's very jaded with this whole getting voted out on day one thing, but even then I don't think he'd vote for himself, even in jest.

    Is it O.K. with Shu if I ask Wu and Wei to PM regarding alliance deals? Or should I not do that just yet. Needless to say that all PM's will be reported to this thread.

    No, which is why we proceed as best we can. But proceed we must. If we become paralyzed by suspicion, we will certainly lose.

    Or you could just seer me and call it a night.

    Either way, you guy's choice.

    If I am dead, then you know there is an interrogation manipulation effect going or someone doesn't like where this is going. If I am seered good then I'm good. If I am interrogated and do not die I am good.

    Actually, quick clarification.

    Do guards protect against interrogations, or just vigs?

    This way, if I am guarded and interrogated, then I cannot be vigged. And If I die anyway than you learn a game mechanic.

    I would still prefer to do this the seering way, but this seems like a win-win situation.

    Edit- And to Wu, if you don't want to talk to me than talk to someone else. But talking is a good thing to do.

    To Wu-

    I apologize if I offended you. Shu is open to an alliance with either side, be it Wu or Wei. It is my personal preference that it be Wei, based on my knowledge, but it does not come down to me. Shu as a whole will decide what to do, and Wu and Wei should both make their cases.

    Edit- Anyone mind if I contact B:L? I'll post everything he and I say in here.

    Regardless, they'd need to talk to someone without an obvious bias.

    I'm biased towards Wei because I think that's the best idea at this time, if I was leaning towards Wu then Wei would call be a Wu spy.

    If Wu wants to make their case about why they are the better ally, then they should do it. Wei should do the same.

    Anyone want to talk to Toxic Toys or B:L? They're both offering and I think it would be a better sign of good faith if I didn't do the talking.

    I would think people are concerned since we don't really have much reason to have a "best idea" already, unless there's something you'd like to share with the rest of the class.

    Explain to me how these alliances help us? I'm not even certain what exactly we're supposed to be doing aside from weeding out the traitors in our own house since... you know... there hasn't been a win condition listed yet.

    Weeding out the Shu traitors and killing the Wu and Wei clans as far as I can tell.

    People are talking about these alliances as if two kingdoms would gang up on the third to quickly eliminate them and then settle things between themselves, though I'm not entirely sure why. It sounds like something a spy would come up with.

    Well it's not nice to confuse the people counting, you know.

    and I am doing a count.

    Since I don't know if I can C&P Blarney's post into this thread with the links to his spreadsheet

    Sounds more like something you'd go "pfft, yeah" and then feed your enemy fake info and watch them run around like imbeciles. And who cares if they get mad? They're already trying to kill you. What more are they going to do? Super kill you?

    I'm with Aroduc. These alliances are pointless! If we open our doors to them, they will never let it close! All that matters is that those of the Shu family take their place as the rightful rulers of this blessed nation!

    I sent a PM to infidel, to keep you guys informed.

    Request for clarification: if we are red voted, does any ability we have activate that night, or does the red vote take precedence?

    Both the interrogation and the execution votes come AFTER all actions.
