You gotta fight on guys! Help is coming, we just need to hold out! While you're praying and tearing your clothes off in the temple (which is gonna be mega crowded btw) the battle is going to be lost on the walls! And how is it gonna look for morale when even we've given up? Let's go down fighting! Link to Update Link to awesome pictures!

W Its too late to run, the Temple is filled with scared/dying people. If we're a Hero we should at least go out like one.

If death is certain, we might as well die in style!

If literally burning ourselves out until we die won't save us, how will the sandals?
|
# ? Feb 13, 2015 01:45 |
Gb. Sacrifice everything we have (including ourselves, Tudiya-style). There's a low chance it'll do anything, but that's better than nothing. And at least Asherah won't get the sandals instead.

Cowards! If we run and the voice lied -- we don't freeze instantly when we exit the shield, then what? It has more tentacles than we have terrible ideas, big enough to assault an entire city. It could kill us without even needing a direct hit, the shock from a near miss would gently caress us up just as bad. and it is, what, a somewhere in the neighbourhood of a thousand feet tall? If it detects us leaving the shield we will be pasted. The thing is so drat big it doesn't need trickery, as I said before, the city crumbles just from the impact of tentacle on shield, the thing doesn't need us to do anything except be tasty. We should try to save as many people as possible. The only option that does that is L It might screw us over, and the Watcher, but it seems cool with that.

I suppose it couldn't hurt to also pray at the temple, even if just briefly. Just in case. I don't really want to go there with that being the prime motivation though, I want to be ready to react. Talking to people there might end up being just as interesting as silently praying too. The priest anyway, I assume any others are just crying and babbling.

Nice bit of perspective: if the voice is actually telling the truth, then as much as we feel like we've been screwed over, it has to be feeling the same thing just as hard. It's staring down the same fate we are, and drat, if anyone ought to have a right to being helped it's probably the guy who's presumbaly been stationed here by his superiors and ordered to just stay here and

Death is not a loss, lame death is a loss. Praying is lame at this point, it's a time for action. Join Elia. Running and dying is the worst outcome. Dying and surviving isn't much better.

W for now. I may change this if I get a chance and it seems to matter when looking at the overall count. I don't really want us to potentially spend out last moment desperately begging for another outcome. Humbling ourselves is great, but accepting the current circumstance and fighting is sufficient for that. Frankly A, W, and G (w/o last minute desperation sacrifices) are all good with me. El, does not intervene. He/It does not save people. Smythos, et al might, but with respect to us (which it probably isn't in any way) a bunch of the PtB want us dead. Going to fight beside Eli would be great, even if we die and are consumed by a Gibbering Horror, etc. It would be good in and of itself. Snarls does intervene and he has told us without any doubt to run. I want to listen to Snarls, but sadly my character in this case at the moment is to fight. The shield is down. We are neither frozen, being attacked directly nor trapped inside the Gibbering Horror at this particular moment. The thing might catch us. Worst case for us in the immediate sense there is that if it is intent on immediately catching us we draw it off from other destruction. There might be other long term ramifications positive and negative. It is the only rational thing to do. So says Sogol the Nutjob. The Temple was good while it was a matter of protecting the altar or putting the enemy at a disadvantage through bargaining, etc. It is not interesting as a spot to attempt to bargain for our own life in some way. It would also be good in and of itself.

We have had a lot of votes lately which were if not landslides, than really one sided. This one looks like it is still up in the air. Do you want an update tonight? I may have time for another hour or two at the most, else, the next update is tomorrow night.

Looking at the tally, I'm changing my vote to G. I wanted to go to the temple anyway, which this effectively does, and some combination of G/Gb might be the only contender against W, which seems to be winning handily otherwise. As cool as it might be, I don't see that W offers us the chance to accomplish anything really, while there's perhaps the slimmest chance of doing something at the temple.
