That should lock Palisades into the fight. I would prefer Springlullaby be the second fighter personally because I found her more scummy from the whole Miller shenanigans, but I'm wondering if there is some further strategy involved in making sure we get rid of the person we want to get rid of when a fight starts. If the majority of people want Palisades gone, then what's the point of sticking a Miller in the Pit with them? Why not put someone no one wants to get rid of in the Ring and make it a slam dunk "Flawless Victory"?
As you step along the bridge over the Pit, you notice a figure silhouetted against the door ahead of you. That person speaks out in a stern voice as that person walks towards you.
"...Palisade."
You stand frozen at the sound of your name. You feel that this is what you've been looking for.
"Yes."
The silhouetted person stands in front of you.
"I had a feeling that you'd show up here. The Elder Gods also summoned me to the Mortal Kombat tournament; did they not come to you as well?"
"They did. I'm looking for worthy Kombatants to test my skills. It's been a while."
"Then this is the perfect place."
You watch as the silhouetted Kombatant squats into a fighting stance. You do the same; however, you can't quite make out who your opponent is. You realize that this person can't see your true intentions; you cannot see theirs. You can't really think straight; after all, it's been quite a few months since your last battle. You're not sure whether to feel extreme evil and hatred or great peace and reserve, but you put yourself at the ready regardless.
That person finally walks out in front of the light and you finally see their face.
Didn't think I'd need to say this, as I think it's a given, but I will anyway to nip it in the bud: Any votes for a nominated Kombatant after they are nominated will not count. Carry on.
You make no sense Ghostwriter. Being chosen to fight for glory doesn't automatically make you, the outside ring cheerer, have a better read on them, or increase odds of anything.
You must know, now, who you plan on winning the combat, who you plan on voting for eternal glory, and who must die.
Yeah, we should spend as little time in the ring as possible, because it gives 23 players an excuse to lurk. Discuss first, then pick a person to kill, pick a killer, slam dunk fatality.
Actually, we kinda should pick two scummy people, but we really should spend as little time as possible in the ring and flipping between two is a good way to drag shit out, so depends I guess. Go for a double scum pick if we're trying to pressure the hell out of two people, otherwise executioner style.
@CooL DoG:
1) I do not know who scum is. I have not called anyone scum yet. I have reads, yes.
Fate, Ghostwriter, and Amrun = Town.
Pali, The Fonz, Spring, MOS = leaning scum.
Its probably not what you expected, but oh well.
3) I admit that their are a lot of players who are better at scum hunting then me, so my death won't be a, "WELL NOW WHO ARE WE GOING TO RELAY ON." Think about Fate dying at night and the result and me dying at night and the result. Excellent player v.s. Eh player.
4) Because I love WIFOM, duh.
I really don't know how to respond to you. Everything I say, you are taking as a generalization. Its like if I said, "I want to die," you will respond saying, "Well why not post your role pm."
I don't know if sending in one scummy player and one good players due to roles.
Even though we believe person X is scum, do we still decide to kill them if they claim a pro-town role (Cop, doctor, etc) while person Y is more viable as a player but not in role term (VT, neighbourizer, etc)?
