Allegiance confirmed

What about Leaders' order?

Also, I believe we shall check the 3rd in line with Open Up.

ED: Nevermind, was ninja'd. Okay, so I am the third in line, now this may smell fishy.

That was quite a coincidence... Once again I think whoever is given this card should open up to the first person to post after them.
 
Ok, because they're here now, and it's first round with nothing really to go on:


Open Up to Cymsdale.

No Confidence to gliomarto

In the Spotlight to jpr123.


And tamius, how will deadlines work, immediate use cards, etc?

EDIT meaning, would I propose a team now because none of thew cards are immediate use?
 
If you really are resistance Cymsdale, I'd rather you didn't just open up to Cliges, and actually do go with my idea.

And can I ask, is 'In the Spotlight' declared in the thread or used secretly via a message to the GM?

Open up is immediate use.

I wrote in the rules that you ought to wait for the immediate use cards (in this case, Open Up) to be resolved. (but if you're desperate to, you can propose a team beforehand; you won't be able to change it later on, though.).

Oh no, better to wait.

I had forgotten that that one was immediate use.
 
Well I just think that it seems very suspicious if you declare you will pass it straight back to the person who hand's it you. You and Cliges could easily be seen as working together, and the only reason for working together with someone at this stage is if you were both spies. Then again I don't think you would actually be that obvious... But I'd still rather see someone random get it so we can be more confident you aren't a spy.

Hmm, well you thought I was "very suspicious" last game too. Maybe you should take a step back and rethink how you approach this game.

I'm using open up on Cliges as promised.

I think establishing a chain of trust is important, and if Cliges is resistance, then he has to trust me if we're going to win. If he's a spy, well then a new chain will have to be forged elsewhere.

I thought my method of card distribution was almost as random as one might be able to do with some measure of attestation. This way at least lets you see that my method was adhered to. Far more so than giving three cards and just saying that the recipients were random, I'd say.

Or perhaps you should stop linking yourself to other players which I happen to find rather suspicious. You singled out exactly which player you would like to scan you and that player turned out to be a spy. You don't see how that could lead me to think you were one of the spies too?

By all means establish a link between players when you are confident of each others roles, but if you have no information on anyone else I don't see any reason to do it.

I "singled-out" which player to scan me, because the scan card required that the player be sitting next to me.

I'm a bit saddened that you didn't turn out to be a spy last game, because you were using such fail-logic that it made me realized any resistance team will be doomed if you end up on it. That game ended up being won anyway, but it wasn't through the use of any solid jpr-logic.
 
Oops, missed a question.

And can I ask, is 'In the Spotlight' declared in the thread or used secretly via a message to the GM?

Reading the description it looks like you have to publicly declare it, but I've never seen it used, so you probably have as much idea as I do.
 
Role received.

A question for Cliges: when you propose a team, are you planning to include yourself or not?

But you could have let either player next to you use the scan. Picking which one you want to actually do the scanning is a suspicious thing to do. Clearly you were wrong about any resistance team with me on being doomed and my crap logic only allowed me to correctly work out 3 of the 4 spies. I still maintain that me mistaking you for a spy was more your fault than mine, as even ignoring the fact you asked to be scanned by a spy, you also rejected every proposal of resistance-only team's. So maybe it's you who needs to try and change their approach to this game rather than me, as I'm sure I wasn't the only player to think you were acting like a spy.

Could I have clarification from Flac then, does this need to be used publicly or privately? If it's public it seems rather crap.

Being a resistance member means you don't know who the spies are, which brings a lot of uncertainty to the team acceptance/rejection. Rejecting every team is not an indication of anything, resistance or spy. You might be able to look at rejections/acceptance vs other factors. But that fact alone is worth nada.

If I'm not mistaken, Cymsdale has been on the winning team in every game so far. I'm not so sure he should change his game.
