If I get rid of him, then the game is over and I lose.

Not really... And besides, if you DON'T get rid of him we all lose because we'll all keep voting the same way. The only person who can go is Fire.

As the battle of the elements grows ever fiercer, the world spins and the atmosphere grows thin. The winds die down and a great stillness spreads. The world, once ripe with potential, is becoming more certain. And the certainty is baking algae choking a waveless sea.

TheWetSheep was Air and is dead. TheWetSheep voted truly this round and falsely the last.



Vote Count
------------------------
Nerjin -
Tiruin -
Captain Ford -

Vote leader:

Not Attacking --  Nerjin, Captain Ford, Tiruin
Not Protecting -- Nerjin, Captain Ford, Tiruin

The round ends when the last person places their vote. Any special attack or protects must be declared anew every fresh round.

Huh... I guess I was wrong... So we have double attacks, double protects, and a switch.


[Ford votes Tiruin all the way]

Ford:Nerjin Tiruin [+2]
Tiruin:Nerjin, Both of Ford's Attacks. [+1]
Nerjin: Tiruin [-1]

Me and Tiruin win...

[Ford votes Nerjin all the way]
Ford:Nerjin Tiruin [+2]
Tiruin:  [+0]
Nerjin: Both of Ford's attacks, Both of Tiruin's defends [+0]

Both me and Tiruin win.

[Ford Splits his votes]

Ford:Nerjin Tiruin [+2]
Tiruin: Ford - Nerjin = [+0]
Nerjin: Ford - Tiruin = [+0]

Both me and Tiruin win.

[Nerjin votes against Tiruin while Ford plays on Tiruin]
Ford: Tiruin - Nerjin = [+0]
Tiruin: Nerjin, both of Ford's attacks [+3]
Nerjin: Tiruin [+1]

Stalemate

[Tiruin goes against Nerjin while Ford plays against Nerjin

Ford: Nerjin - Tiruin = [+0]
Tiruin: nerjin [+1]
Nerjin: Tiruin + Ford + Ford = [+3]

Stalemate


I'd run more things but it appears that stalemate is the best you can do Ford.

Unvote by the way just to be save... Unvote

OH for fuck's sake. TWS forgot to make his protect not count.

Well, never mind.

As tempting as it is, you can't vote for yourself Ford.

We actually had a shot at winning. But it wasn't going to happen. And no, I can't cause a stalemate. You both protect each other, you both attack me, game over.

Pretending to be each other's elements was the only way for us to win. If we place all 3 attacks on Tiruin, and TWS protected me, then you'd have to put your attacks on TWS to tie it up. The idea was for us to trick you into placing your attacks on me instead, and then TWS could protect me, and we'd kill Tiruin.

You DID figure out that we were lying, right? Because actually placing your votes on fire was the way you would have lost the game.

Uh... Yeah sure. No... actually I didn't. How would me attacking Fire have changed anything?

...wow...I hate to say it, but I guess I really overestimated my competition. I guess the deception wasn't necessary in the first place.

The biggest problem was that we had to vote last, or the deception wouldn't work. I decided to let the game stalemate for a round in the hopes you would be willing to place your votes first in the next round. I didn't count on the fact that TWS didn't activate his ability.

The game ends when someone has won.

So if you actually killed fire, the game would have ended immediately with Tiruin as the sole victor. You and I would have lost.

...Wow... I really underestimated your not being rude.  You are right however in some regards. I had assumed the game would end when there were only two elements left so... Yeah... ANYWAY I'm writing flavor right now so... be on the lookout for that.

Ford because he hurt my feelings.

Tiruin because she... didn't?

Oh well. I had to assume you knew what you were doing, and even if you didn't, as soon as you saw the votes lining up, you'd have realized what was going on.

I swear I thought you had figured it out when you both voted TWS. It's too bad that we succeeded at the deception but lost because of a little miscommunication.

...THERE, IT JUST DID IT AGAIN! Augh. When I hit preview and the site is slow, it will wipe out any changes I make between when I requested the preview and when the preview comes through. That's how that got back into my last post.

I didn't meant to imply you were stupid, Nerjin. You were playing the game the way it was intended by NQT. The problem is that the game described by the rules is not the same game that NQT was trying to create.
