WW15 - Chiron is a harsh mistress

[waterbat]

So scratch theory that Bigger is operating for the planet, and consider that a real live player is playing the 'planetary conciousness' role. The player has certain abilities, one of them a scrying ability, one involves the sending of dream-messages to other players. Abilities work through the mindworms (i.e. Bigger).

couldnt remember the exact phrasing, so i used "voice of planet" instead of 'planetary conciousness'

[waterbat]

yeah - I am very open to the idea that it is complete BS. That was the main reason i held off posting it or thinking much about it last 2 days. Well, I thought about it quite a lot more that I wanted to anyway


Also, you can never argue against anyone applying the razor .... or Matthew McConaughey. If you argue against Matthew McConaughey applying the razor, your head immediately implodes.

im looking forward to the next dream I suspect it might revert to complete nonsense.

[waterbat]

oh - and noone claimed a dream night 1, correct? Perhaps, like me, they have to pick who they are going to infect during night phase and then can only release the dream the next night? Similar to how I have to pick someone and then tomorrow the tunnel comes up?

[Meiz]

"Lular H'minee" "Sister Miriam" "Chairman Yang" "The Merchant" and "The Worker".

Lewwyn, Serdoa (dead), Brick, ??, thestick

Random guess, my leader could be one of the "earthies". Maybe Injera was supposed to be the third one.

Simply but, I've got no interest in this minigame and would rather win the traditional way.

It's text taken from the Pholus Mutagen secret projects.

More than that.. basically that entire post is cobbled together from , aside from the list.

It's a slightly alarming turn of phrase because Voice of Planet has a *very* specific meaning. It's the name of the secret project which enables transcendence.

Blargle. I meant to paste a link, but evidently excised the section instead.

The first sentence was meant to read:
"More than that.. basically that entire post is cobbled together from , aside from the list. "

Farkled hams. I see what I did, and I did it twice. IMG tag instead of URL tag. Oh for the ability to edit. Ho hum.

I looked briefly at the wiki at the start of the game - "voice of planet" may have stuck with me, but I had no idea that was the name of the project. Note that they are prompting me to "Transcend" with them - so I would not be surprised at all if "Voice of Planet" is the name of their win condition / power. I quoted it because i didn't know what to call it - that's awesome.

Meiz is more likely to be village because Injera's an NAP? I'm beginning to feel irritated about 'there is only one NAP in the neighbors, one in the Drones.'

Yeah, that was more of a I didn't really have much to go on in my mind regarding Meiz statement. Though since Lewwyn seems to be so sure of his demise, I'll be checking him out.

I got confirmation that Bigger will allow a quote of his PM (only because others have already broken the rule). I think he intended us to have to describe the dreams and not quote them. In any event, here is the text:

now - this dream was transmitted at night - at the same time as Serdoa and Zak died.

In trying to dicipher this I forgot that the poster would not have known they died.

There were 11 people left when i got the dream, and the dream mentions 11 people.
3 "voice of planet":
planetfungus and planetworm and planetmind
3 people who are to be accepted into their transcendance:
earthempath and earthwheat and earthtree
and 5 that need to be culled:
"Lular H'minee" "Sister Miriam" "Chairman Yang" "The Merchant" and "The Worker"

I went down this path for a while until I realized that there should have been 13 alive when this message was sent. Sister Miriam (mentioned above) and Marr(not mentioned) died.

So... who are my buddies earthwheat and earthtree ?

We get 2 win conditions, the rest of the village gets only 1?

Notice how this message is completely different from the others - its very tactical. I wouldnt be surprised if it is complete BS or .... if it is valid, but the worm(s) but their own name in the "list to be culled"

The Merchant - really throws me for a loop.

What the heck are you even talkign about Waterbat? You're posting all of this crazy shit so late after you supposedly got it and it sounds crazy. YOU'RE crazy i think. I'm not really sure if I can lend any possible credence to this. And of course it just HAPPENS to target me for execution, how bloody convenient.

I like that curse. Farkled Hams Batman!

So I looked at that link Selrahc, and I noticed that it umped right to the Data Jack entry, which is as follows:

My gift to industry is the genetically engineered worker, or Genejack. Specially designed for labor, the Genejack's muscles and nerves are ideal for his task, and the cerebral cortex has been atrophied so that he can desire nothing except to perform his duties. Tyranny, you say? How can you tyrannize someone who cannot feel pain?
Chairman Sheng-ji Yang, "Essays on Mind and Matter"
[edit]

So... the datajack is supposed to be one of my engineered workers? And that messgae was sent the day before I revealed my role, whereupon I prompted recieved a scare messgae of gibberish? Is this any of your doing Molach? You are the only drone left.
