In Game 1, Loki was allowed to choose which side he wanted to be on, Town or Jotun (I choose Jotun).

I'm not sure that this choice existed in Game 2, I know glyphz played it protown. Whether that was a choice or a given role, you know better than me.

I think Sigurd is drawing more on Midgard 2 this "classic" style game, and I believe that mainly because the holmgang scores are game 2 style rather than game 1 where humans had a chance to defeat gods. But then again, the Heimdall looking for Loki hails from game 1, did this also exist in game 2?

He could very well have made a "mix" of the two games for this anniversary. I think we're going down the wrong route by trying to figure out things by comparing them to the first two games in the series. There is no guarantee that it's not completely different this time around.

Another thing: I'm not an expert on norse mythology but aren't the Jotun supposed to be ice giants? What's with all the fire in N0 and N1 killings?

I don't know if all Jotun necessarily correspond to any particular element, but there are at least two different kinds of elemental Jotun: Frost Giants (who reside in Niflheim) and Fire Giants (who reside in Muspelheim).

There's a separate thread for the holmgang write-ups now.

And weren't there others who did the same sort of thing? This is a phenomenon with this whole game. Glass houses, B_Ray.

I didn't actually reveal my role, though, which seemed a bit extreme. It's one thing to say "I'm important and should stay alive" and another to say "I'm an Aesir and here's my character info".

Anyone have a tally?

Voting for Khazaar based on his lurking translating into possibly being someone who killed Seamus is just odd reasoning, and the discourse between GH and pizza isn't sufficient to form a decent conclusion yet IMO, so lets see what barking up this tree yields.

Vote: Khaan

**TheLastDays** · 07-17-2011, 17:19

There ya go:

issaikhaan: 4 (B_Ray, Renata, Diamondeye, Death is yonder)

khazaar: 2 (WhiteEyes, GeneralHankerchief)
GeneralHankerchief: 2 (TheLastDays, Askthepizzaguy)

Askthepizzaguy: 1 (Chaotix)
n0rg3 Roink: 1 (Believer)
Woads&Fangs: 1 (autolycus)
Chaotix: 1 (Thefluffyone93)
Andres: 1 (Nightbringer)

Abstain: 2 (n0rg3 Roink, Andres)

I've got to go run some errands. Should be back later to change my vote, but just in case...

Vote: ATPG

Something about his exchange with GH seemed off to me. It had a whiff of intentional exaggeration about it.

**Chaotix** · 07-17-2011, 18:03

Hrm...

Keeping my vote atm to preserve this tie.

I think Reenk is Loki.

**TheLastDays** · 07-17-2011, 18:12

Which tie are you talking about? khaan is in the lead with 4 votes

I have no idea if Loki had a choice in game 2. glyphz claimed he was pure pro-town, but that was in-game and I don't remember if there was any post-game confirmation of that claim.

Heimdall was not in game 2. There, the gods were Odin, Thor, and Loki. However, there was a Christian faction which I think was at odds with the Gods as well in some manner (while still being pro-town). That may have served the same 'town in-fighting' purposes that the Loki/Heimdall thing did in game 1.
