Yeah, I actually have no interest in this anymore. People bitching and moaning about the first cycle and then everyone who actually managed to profit from it leaving totally killed any sort of fun from this.

Thanks for hosting Somber and for trying to make people happy, but take me out of the game.

I look forward to the part where my credulity and naivete is inevitably taken advantage of, leading to my untimely death.

This is a really neat design decision, I think; the natural tendency of players is to form up in a power bloc but once they do the power bloc becomes the only remaining players, so they have to turn on one another. Interesting play, that.

Since having bricks is going to necessitate a rather dramatic shift in strategy, I'm betting, I figure there's no harm in talking about my Game One strategy, since it no longer really applies.

I had two main principles in action:
1) Vote Early. As soon as a round starts, pick a name at random and get that vote in. I'd rather be eliminated for guessing wrong and not being in the majority than for waiting too long to finish wheeling and dealing.
2) Whoever Asks First gets my help. Ironically, both of the first two rounds the person I selected at random to vote for was the person who contacted me and said "Hey let's vote for this dude;" both times I listened. I knew there was a chance that someone'd be running a bluff and trying to get me to vote with a minority or something, but I figured the odds of that happening Game One were pretty low. When neither Meinberg nor Rarity contacted me for Round Three, I figured better safe than sorry and played the Ambush (actually I played the Ambush early, figuring I'd play the odds, but neither of them dropped me a line to convince me to change it).

That was basically it. I'd love to be able to claim a Machiavellian genius about how you were all puppets dancing to my tune, but nope; I sorta fell rear end backwards into success. So that was kinda cool.

Meinberg votes to AMBUSH! It’s not very effective. . .
Kashuno didn’t submit a vote or meant his vote for DCB to carry over, same thing either way!
bowmore didn’t submit a vote and I guess isn’t playing? He can contact me or post itt to correct that.

With four votes, Rarity is the majority vote and has been eliminated!
CirclMastr has voted against the majority and been eliminated!
Meinberg’s cowardice has betrayed him, and he has been eliminated!
Kashuno has been eliminated one way or the other!
bowmore has not submitted a vote and has been banished to the void!
