ToasterHm? It has nothing to do with changing belief. I mean that each candle favors a certain god in its lit or unlit state, and the more favor a god has, the more power the correlating priests have. Since the scum have gods of light and darkness, they likely correspondingly gain/lose power.
My theory is it is less a puzzle to solve than we think- we're just influencing which players have power by playing with candles. Lynching- which is probably done with extinguishing the white candle, should be straightforward. But there are more questions to ask.
That...would make a lot of sense, but let's wait for any response from either Meph or the HP to try to confirm it. We can only affect
two candles today, and everyday else. I really don't believe that we should start attributing analogy onto the candle colors - the deities given have different characteristics; these are only the most common traits of said god, which I'm betting are no means definitive of their whole being.
I'm still against the idea (but not against the discussion of the idea) that color = symbolism and delving on that without any evidence or ideas (except for Vector and her teal candle...I'm pretty unsure how colors relate O_o) while my power is focused mainly on candles...bluh.
ANYWAY...I'm (just now) really guessing Meph isn't being straightforward with
how we'd get rid of the traitors//lynch em or snuff em. The latter seeming to be the most obvious way. Because he didn't mention anything along the lines of how to remove them. At all, in the OP or in the flavor...
DariushDariush, alas no. I've told you all everything I know.
...Ooookay, take two.
My current theory is that followers of the same god have the same ability, but only if their green candle is lit. To verify this, I propose everyone does the following: go to http://www.md5.cz/ , hash your ability name with your username tacked on to the end (without spaces) and post the result here. Anybody can verify the poster by taking their own ability, adding the name of the poster and hashing it, while at the same time everyone will get a different hash, so nobody will be able to simply copy a hash or deduce the teams if my suggestions is correct, while at the same time bruteforcing this in a viable time should be next to impossible.
My hash is 70c8a35b0048f3aa9beeb8f5bd03bf9a, BTW.
Theory denounced. COmparing myself to the rest who have claimed (nobody claimed my god yet), my ability is different. And I'm really doubting that Meph has given one ability per God...
...Why are you focused on the abilities of people and making theories along that line?
Solifuge, Vector, Remuthra, NQT, does any of you have a usable power?
Also, I wonder if resurrections are possible, assuming the white candle means life.
Snuff mine, I'm willing to check that out.
"High Priest," Tiruin asks, "What does these candles mean? Is there anything you can tell us to aid us in this riddle?"
