I don't. Are you selling loot security systems or something? Sheesh. You may as well be hanging a "Steal from Xiahou" sign outside my bunk.
Well, that's good to know. I assumed that protection and blocking were both functions of the same mechanism... ie: in the brig you were safe, but couldn't do anything.
He's probably planning on recruiting the other half.![]()

I feel like most people distrust Visor just because he's been good at coordinating but for no real reason beyond that. It's easy to think that the guy who knows a lot must be scum, but no one seems to have a real case against him yet.
OK, let's start from N1.
Xiahou, I contacted you N1 to recruit you to a protection group.
You responded favorably, but by that time I had a full group. I urged you to seek out the late-Captain Kagemusha, who was looking to organize the inactives.
After that point, what were you doing?

I don't trust anyone atm. I never claimed I did. Assumed from Monty's statement that he did and merely said I didn't.
Im not ATPG and I never implied or said anything like that. I don't particularly care about the gold or the networking aspects. I simply want to get rid of people who are detrimental to the pirates.
He called me out in the thread and either caused someone to attack me or put it together himself. Instead of Pming me and asking me what happened, he decided to put it all out there in the thread. I could have just put it all out in the thread, but I decided not to. You guys mutinied and got rid of the only person who would have been able to corroborate my story. I find his methods harmful overall and his post's lacking for someone who seemingly should have a large deal of information. Both you and Visor seem nonchalant and conceited for people who claim to be hunting the French, while all you've really done is vig people who you decide are suspicious as far as I can tell.
But please tell me more about how I don't give a![]()

I am extremely dissatisfied with the current administration
vote: mutiny
Wait, we can curse on the org now?' A.
[You can to an extent. Not that one. - GH]
Also vote: Xiahou for having 50 more gold than he should. If you all will recall, the Frenchman last game had an ability to outbid the captain. It's not unreasonable to imagine that there is a similar mechanic this game, though probably with a harder to achieve goal. He probably got the extra gold from his partners.
That, or he's King Orgnum.

N1: Double A threw me in the brig, and then he contacted me because he was suspicious of why I had so much gold. I had around 132 or something then and he named the exact amount. I explained that I had 130 or so because of the three invites - Ironside, Lissa and NotJimRV.
Now, N2, I threw Xiahou in the brig because I thought he was french - AA and Jim can confirm with logs if necessary. And I was also interested to see his gold total - which is a perk of the quartermaster role. He had 200 and I thought to myself damn, thats a lot. Did the math and he could only have gotten some if he was willed it - but I highly doubt anyone had a will setup or khaan expected to die (I didn't expect him to be dead either - I knew nothing about the kill fwiw).
All he had to do was say khaan gave him the money - but HE DID NOT.
Therefore he must have started with more gold then usual. IIRC my frenchman role last game had more gold then usual at the start.
Now why is this important? There are theories around that the frenchman has more starting gold, gold is needed to recruit and a few other things - I think gaius told me one of those but that not important.
The frenchman role had a power last game where if he had 400 gold he could outright bribe the captain.
I cannot see a legitimate reason for Xiahou to have 200 gold unless he is scum.
Solution: Double A steps down, we elect Xiahou Captain, then mutiny, then re-elect Double A.
Piratey enough for you naysayers?
Vote:Xiahou

What does that mean?
He called me out in the thread
and either caused someone to attack me or put it together himself.
Instead of Pming me and asking me what happened, he decided to put it all out there in the thread.
What exactly is wrong with that? What is suspicious about it? Can you give a reason other than oh my god visor sucks?
Because...?I could have just put it all out in the thread, but I decided not to.
You don't even have a story.You guys mutinied and got rid of the only person who would have been able to corroborate my story.
What is harmful about it?I find his methods harmful overall
All of his posts?and his post's lacking for someone who seemingly should have a large deal of information.
How is that the case and why would it even matter?Both you and Visor seem nonchalant and conceited for people who claim to be hunting the French
As opposed to protecting suspicious people? Is vigging suspicious people wrong?while all you've really done is vig people who you decide are suspicious as far as I can tell.
Apparently you were in two places at one time, and you couldn't even be bothered to give any explanation at all. Today you voted Visor and couldn't be bothered to even fabricate a reason. I don't see you saying anywhere you think he's French. Tell me more about you do care about the French, and not just getting rid of someone who suspects you.But please tell me more about how I don't give a![]()
If Visor's lying, then he only has three days to win the game. I don't think that's enough.
Incidentally, I think our ship is going a little slow. I hope we don't get caught by the pursuit. We should probably jettison some csargo to speed ourselves up.

No, let's lynch him because he was called out for having a suspiciously large pile of gold and then failing to explain how he came across it.
vote: xiahou
I also really dislike Csargo's line of reaction to this.
I'm going to be logging off for the night in an hour or two, so consider this a friendly heads-up from me, speaking as Moderator (and not just the host):
Currently the level of discussion in this thread (amount of profanity, tone of posts, etc) is a bit before the borderline of being un-Gameroomish. Let's please ensure that it stays on that side of the line. Remember, we want to keep the environment friendly.
My thanks.![]()

Lying is such an ugly word. I'm saying he's wrong. I do not have 200 gold.
I really do appreciate the amount of attention that is being drawn to my finances though. It's really helpful. Suggesting that I'm fantastically wealthy will no doubt be oh so helpful for my future here. Thanks.
