CorneliusMurdock Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 This has been a lot to process and you beings seem to talk a lot, but I think I'm caught up. If the poet has a glass already, there's the redundancy the plan needs. He can start where he is on the list and The person purchasing the new glass can start where they are. As long as the poet agrees to pass the glass... As for any holes, the best of plans does not survive contact with an enemy. But I believe it is the best so far. How do we know those stealing from the gremlin weren't merely looking for an excuse to keep items for the evil cause? I think stealing should be kept to a minimum for now. A being may only use one item at a time. Best not to overload anyone at this point.
Flipz Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 "Might be a bit of a drain on his resources" added Calico mischievously and quite suddenly from a seat opposite the saloon from the one she'd been occupying previously, not far from Luridan. The satisfaction in her eyes and the larger pouch at her side made it clear she'd just stolen from the gremlin. "At least now he's contributed one thing towards, like, ACTUALLY helping us find scum." Ha, clever. I don't really want to off a potential hero this early, but leaving dangerous items in the hands of those who might mouse them is hardly a good idea. In fact... One of Kharybdis's arms transformed into a long, thin tentacle, which snaked into Luridan's pocket, then retracted with a stolen item attached to a suction cup. ... I'll emulate you. "...Tha's brilliant, tha' is." The chandelier begins to applaud, before snoring. It was clear that the ogre had decided to take a brief Nap.

"You don't," remarked the halfling with a wink. "But if, like, I WAS part of an evil cause, I'm sure I'd totally have something more constructive to do than just, like, steal from one of my own teammates."
Kadabra Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 If I were evil I'd have just attacked, I doubt too many people would've been upset about it and it wouldn't have looked too scummy.., and the end result would be that I (hypothetically evil) would've gotten his items anyway.

It hasn't been established that the gremlin is evil, though. Just annoying and incomprehensible.
LordoftheNoobs Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 "I am not a poet, although I do rhyme; it's just tradition for a Plantanan Witch to do so all the time. That being said, I am not a 'he', because I am a woman, although it's hard to see. Regarding my glass, it I am more than willing to pass."

Only if you dealt the final blow. Stealing, you were guaranteed an item. And I don't think scum would want to draw first blood. I'm not saying either of you are definitely evil, just that your actions make me suspicious of you.

I'm not saying either of you are definitely evil, just that your actions make me suspicious of you. Fair enough, your logic is completely sound - Calico and I could both be seen as scummy right now. I'll just hope my other actions and ideas convince you otherwise.

The Legonater Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 "Hear everything ye say, I do, these ears, for show are not!" "A problem, my own amusement frae, work out, I will. Alchemist, a, Rouge, and Beast Warrior, all have done, same things, th', that done have Calico, Kharybdis, and myself. A spy, one at least tis. Point of view, frae mine, that th' rouge th' spy tis." ...What. Where on earth is this logic coming from? For one, you didn't steal anything. You made a mixture. Two, there's not proof that they can't do the same thing. Three, even if they couldn't, that wouldn't make them a spy, that'd mean they misread something. Where exactly is this spy nonsense coming from?

Kadabra Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 Checking in one more time before I take a nap... And what's this? Editing isn't against the rules, technically, but getting rid of large chunks of your post, especially when you accuse someone, is just plain scummy (newbies, take note: edits are bad form and usually just banned outright.). Also, as Theodor pointed out, that made no sense whatsoever.
Brickdoctor Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 "Talking about, what are ye?" We all know what he's talking about. We can all see that you edited your statement. Zarissa hands her 10 gold to Zpilf ...interesting.

(To clarify, the statement was a thinly veiled allegory which I realized was not well done so I think that it was best that I removed it as the accusation was not founded on fact and Luridan would never say something that he did not think was grounded in fact, now can you please stop the blatantly out a character comments? I want to go to sleep right now because where I am it's past twelve!)

Waterbrick Down Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 Werther steps into the middle of the conversing group and begins to sign, {While I am for this plan involving the magnifying glass, what is to keep any spell slingers or archers among the Nephilim from taking down whomever holds the glass in the middle of the day or even during the night and then stealing it from us heroes?}
swils Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 Looked down upon, retracting statements is. Up, they should be left. Acknowledge and correct errors, you should. Silly gremlin.

What of the possibility of the Nephilim killing whomever is being investigated if we are merely working our way down a list?} Most likely, they will try to kill someone whether there is a list or not, so I don't think it would majorly change anything other than impede our efforts to confirm — as much as one can be confirmed — a Hall-ie core. But If they do decide to kill according to the list, then that could make it easier get a read based on who they didn't kill. WIFOM aside, killing sequentially based on the list would create something of a trackable pattern, so I doubt that they would do that and also risk acting predictably and being seen or being blocked.
