I see. That's logical enough. Can you protect candles with a red flame?

Also, a thought: The ability that turned Ottofar's candle a pale white yesterday may be able to turn red flames into normal ones, allowing them to be snuffed normally.

I don't think so. I'm not gonna try it though. I don't trust the whole "Teal" thing Okami did.

Vector's white also has a red flame.

I'm pretty sure the teal candles are actually lit. There's just not any advice going around because of the storm.

I don't know. It seems awfully fishy to me and I just plain don't trust it.

I personally didn't find it to be too suspicious because the teal candles didn't seem to have any actual power, unlike the white and green candles. An ability that lights a bunch of them wouldn't actually affect the balance too much, but now that the storm has hit, it is odd because the teals don't seem to serve much of a purpose anymore...

But since Okami hasn't posted yet, it's really hard to get a read on him. A lot of things hinge on what he has to say. His absence is really holding things up.

The Head Priest wanting all the God Candles lit seems highly suspicious. He probably has a different win-con than us regulars.

Why is it suspicious? What on earth makes it suspicious? Why is wanting something good for the town suspicious? I don't get this.

I'm not saying it's bad for town. I want to get that out of the way immediately. It's good for town. Very good for town I'd wager.

HOWEVER the circumstances surrounding it speak of "Not Good"

He's a head priest [claimed] so he worships all gods. That's not normal. But in and of itself isn't an issue at all. Plenty of Pantheons do that from my knowledge.

He was able to light ALL the teal candles in one turn if everyone voted them. This seems overpowered but as you said Teals don't really have any spectacular powers by themselves.

There's also the fact that he lurked quite a bit [to my recollection] prior to that event, came in only to really say that he would do that, and then hasn't spoken much since then.

Putting all three of these together has me a little more than slightly suspicious.

I've asked this before, but no one seemed to listen.

Hm... perhaps. I don't know what you mean to say by that though.

What that means is that he may not be the main threat, but I still think that we need to take him out.

Agreed. Hence my votes.

Has anyone with a non-red teal candle claimed to get information from last night?  Was it same/different from the storm message?

No that is stupid.
