Envoys of Lirua - Discussion Thread

[-RosenAdmin]

A chamber reserved for only the most devoted followers of Lirua, the Great Spirit of Warfare.

This thread, and by extension this sub-forum, is secure.

[Nobody]

Hello, I am the grand envoy. How are you, ascendingServitor?

[ascendingServitor]

I am well on this fine day! It will take me some time to adjust to my duties, but I think you for recruiting me.

[Nobody]

Our first follower recruit is Gary,Fred. Since they can get recruited away by another faction or get recruited by the Aetherialist tonight, it is best we don't share anything too sensitive with them.

[Nobody]

ascendingServitor, you aren't young pyromancer, are you?

[Nobody]

I was thinking not sharing our main thread IDs might be a good idea to prevent, to much visible collaboration, but that might not be workable in the long run. What do you think?

[ascendingServitor]

I am not pyro - I don't think anyone is paying much attention to me yet, but I'm making some posts.

I'm thinking on that myself - theoretically, it does prevent us from slipping and giving anything away if we don't know?

[Nobody]

Cool. Glad to know the pyro wagon isn't a threat. We could hold off on sharing IDs unless one of us starts getting voted seriously.

[ascendingServitor]

I think that makes sense - we can share safely here if there's a threat, and until then it's not very helpful to know either way.

We should also eventually talk about how much information to give recruits?

[Nobody]

Right now if we post in the follower section, it will make it clear we are the envoys. That could be a problem if our first recruit gets recruited away.

[ascendingServitor]

Oh, so it's unsafe to that extent! I didn't think about that at all. I'll be careful.

I'm trying to figure out who to recruit. Any thoughts? Since we're recruiting by the names from this forum there isn't too much to go on. Frenzy and HailMarek were the other two I was offered for initial recruits, so they were definitely uninitiated Day 1 but they might have been grabbed by the Aetherialists so that is no guarantee they are safe. For that matter, our first recruit, Gary,Fred might be an Aetherialist. The advantage of picking one of those two is we know they aren't Envoys so our recruitment won't be wasted. I don't see any good reason to use our kills at this point, but I am open to suggestions if you see somebody we should target.

[ascendingServitor]

I definitely don't have any strong enough reads for a kill, just yet - but seeing people's reactions to the night kill might be more telling than the vote? I feel like it was messy and we didn't learn a lot from either wagon, just yet.

And hm. Since there's no real information on the anonymous names, I'm not sure how best to pick for recruiting. Any thoughts on the odds there? We'll probably have to be careful with giving information either way because of the risk of being an Aetherialist or being recruited away later, no matter what. Any recruitment right now is just to help our numbers, I think.

[Nobody]

I think I will try to recruit Frenzy. It won't protect us from Aetherialists, but it means it won't fail because they are an envoy. Sound good?

[Nobody]

I am going to go ahead and put it through so we aren't sending in at the last minute.

[Nobody]

It's in, -Rosen says we can change targets till end of night.

[ascendingServitor]

Sorry about not responding - I was busy during the workday. But I approve and it seems as good a choice as we have information about.

Let's hope we can get some info about the anonymous names soon.

[Nobody]

No problem, I figured you were doing something real world, I just wanted to give you a chance to object if you wanted to.

Day 2 Membership:

Nobody (Grand Envoy)
ascendingServitor (Lesser Envoy)
Gary,Fred (Follower)
Frenzy (Follower)

[Nobody]

Frenzy was posting in the follower thread so I replied. Since I can't get recruited anywhere else, I figure that us safer than you doing it. But if you decide to, it is your call.

[ascendingServitor]

I'll follow the discussion but not reply unless you think it's worthwhile, yeah.

[ascendingServitor]

There is now a vague confirmation that Mesonoxian is not one of our recruits - both of whom posted pretty quickly upon recruiting.

[Nobody]

Mesonoxian is me, I am afraid

[ascendingServitor]

Hm. That'll change my plans, a bit. :p
