I don't know what's everyone's beef with fruitcakes. I mean, look at this; Doesn't it look sumptious? Not if it's thrown at me Are you sure that's fruit cake? I've never seen one iced like that. Though, I actively avoid them, so I guess I wouldn't know. It's a gingered fruitcake with rustic decorations. The fruit is soaked in Cointreau.

Well, enough deliberation.
I've read back through the game, and I still don't think it's clear-cut, but I've got to vote for someone. And for me, the evidence is now tipping toward pela being the spy.
If I'm wrong, I will die tonight, so I hope all of your souls will accept me into the afterlife.

I don't think anything me or pela say now should be the deciding factor in your decision. Both of us will say anything to put the blame on the other. But let's see... From what I noticed, pelassarias always followed votes made by other players, not coming up with candidates on her own. It might indicate that she didn't want to stick her head up, to stay hidden from view. I used that strategy when I was a spy with gervaise and it served me well for quite a while. On the other hand, on day 1 I pretty much started the OG bandwagon, not worrying who took notice of that. My other argument is that pela never voted for any of the spies that we know of. It's not much, I know but it's something. She is the only remaining player that didn't vote for smilesja. Good luck, dragon, Inquisitions fate is in your hands Okay since the vote has been cast on me I just want to add in this: For the first point, I already addressed this in my defense. I just was not confidant in my abilities to start any bandwagon this round especially without any clues or hints. And to be fair, I find that starting a failed bandwagon is just as suspicious as following one. Romice not only started a failed bandwagon (that I unfortunately followed) with OG but she also followed another with Hero. She said she would change her vote if something came up. Something did, something pretty important. Like the possibility of Hero being a powerful role. Yet, we didn't hear anything from romice when it did. I personally find that a lot more suspicious than my behavior during this game. Also the reason why I didn't vote for smilesja is because of what dragontartare said about the player getting voted off/dying early from the past games. I felt sympathy for him and decided to vote for romice instead. I might not have voted for smilesja, but romice also didn't vote for another spy, luke, in this game as well. I don't remember if she even cast suspicion towards his way... I also want to point out that romice didn't even respond to my points in her behavior during Hero's round... Okay! That's it for real this time! This is my final defense! If I'm still voted off I just want to say this has been a good game nonetheless! Nerve-wracking, but great!

Ah, I don't even want to imagine the situation you're in! The fate of the Inquisition is entirely in your hands, and the two people in question can easily be the spy. Although one is more suspicious than the other by a fraction. (romice)
One player fits the bill for spy behavior than the other (romice)
Deep within our first instinct, one player was even suspicious enough to be voted on from the very beginning! (ROMICE)
You voted for this player at first. Before the smilesja round, you were planning on voting for romice. You were even leaning towards her before you voted for me. Your gut is telling you to vote for this player! Go with it, just like I went with my instinct with Hero!
(I know I said I was done, but I had to do one last effort!! )

(I know I said I was done, but I had to do one last effort!! ) On the other hand, Luke was the first to vote for me. It was on day 1. A spy wouldn't risk the voting getting out of control and their co-spy getting eliminated. Why would they? At the time, there were 4 votes for Hero and one for Space Cowboy, both non-spy players. The spies were in no danger, so why vote for each other? I didn't change my vote for Hero, because I so no other sensible alternative at that time. I didn't think he would be Leli, I guess I'm bad at guessing roles without hints But, as you said the game was really fun, and I'm happy that it lasted until the last possible day, whatever happens at the end

Once upon a Skyhold dreary, while Inquisitor sat weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore, While he nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at his castle door. 'Tis some visitor,' he muttered, `tapping at my castle door - Only this, and nothing more.'
One could hope for nevermore.
Ah, distinctly spies remember it was in the bleak December, And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor. Eagerly they wished the morrow; - vainly they had sought to borrow From the potions case of sorrow - Sorrow of the Lost Lenore - For the rare and radiant hero whom the Maker takes ashore - Named be here for evermore.
And the dreary shadows crept their fingers across the windows, across the floor, seeking victims - tapping, rapping, rapping at another door. And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain Thrilled the hero - filled him with fantastic terrors never felt before; So that now, to still the beating of his heart, he stood repeating 'Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door - Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door; - This it is, and nothing more,'
Presently his soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer, 'Sir,' said he, 'or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore; But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping, And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door, That I scarce was sure I heard you' - here he opened wide the door; - Darkness there, and nothing more.
Deep into the darkness peering, long another hero stood there fearing Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before; But the silence was unbroken, and the darkness gave no token, And the only word there mocking was the whispered word, `Lenore!' This, a threat, he charged as echo murmured mockingly, `Lenore!' Vanished he and nothing more.
In the other chambers turning, all her soul within her burning, Soon the hero heard a tapping somewhat louder than before. `Surely,' said she, `surely that is something at my window lattice; Let me see then, what thereat is, and this mystery explore - Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore; - 'Tis the wind and nothing more!'
But behind her darkness preening, leering, taking her ashore Shattered vial and nothing more.
Waited hero then, despised, of his soon to come demise, Open there he flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter, In there stepped a stately raven of the saintly days of yore. Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he; But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above his chamber door - Perched upon a bust of Mythal just above his chamber door - Perched, and sat, and nothing more. Took he new victim ashore.
Desolate, yet all undaunted of his castle horror haunted, By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance he wore, Into the chamber of the victim, burst Inquisitor Lenore. `Trickster!' said he, 'thing of evil! - message from the great deceiver! From this snow filled land enchanted - banished, be a threat no more.' Ghastly grim and ancient raven, wandering from the nightly shore - Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'The elimianted player was
pelassarias - The Venatori Agent!
The Heroes Come to Victory!
Great Try Villains!

Good job dragon! I knew you would make the right decision And pela, I have to say that ypu were really convincing, at the end I started questionig whether dragon fooled both of us, and she was the spy. Honestly people being sure that I was the bad guy when I wasn't was really fun. I'm totaly up for another round if it's going to happen

Just wanted to clarify something. When Romice and I were spies the problem wasn't that people were claiming/hinting at roles but that the narrative was confirming too many roles as being present, which made our attempts to adopt the missing roles somewhat redundant. Then it actually helped me that I was wrongly identified as claiming Sera (which I never did) instead of the role I had been hinting at (Iron Bull). I have actually found it less fun when people were prohibited from dropping any hints at all. So long as the narrative doesn't confirm who is present one way or the other then you still have to work out if the claim is genuine or not.
I also found when I was Leliana that I was strenuously avoiding letting anyone know who I was for obvious reasons and I was kicking myself for a comment that was immediately latched on to as being Vivienne. Being "outed" by other players is actually annoying if you are trying to remain hidden. Still I find that allowing no hints at all makes it too much a matter of guesswork in the first couple of rounds. Like I say, so long as the narrative isn't telling us that certain people are in play, then both heroes and spies enjoy the same advantages/disadvantages in hinting at roles. To be honest, with no hints and so few special abilities actually coming into play, this round could have taken place anywhere.
If enough people want to go again, I would be happy to GM the next one to give Adonniel another go, but only if people are allowed a bit more freedom in actual role playing of the characters involved. (Obviously faux pas like the one I committed wouldn't be allowed).

You know, I only decided to drop my suspicion of Dragon because "devil's advocate" that later got semi-confirmed. Or whatever. I dunno. Been a while since said logic.

To be honest, with no hints and so few special abilities actually coming into play, this round could have taken place anywhere. was for obvious reasons and I was kicking myself for a comment that was immediately latched on to as being Vivienne.
The game shouldn't make you avoid making certain types of comments so it wouldn't be considered a hint. The point was to have people behave the way they do, but without putting additional thought into making their characters known. When the comments are general than it's not against the rules. Dragon's comment from which it could have been guessed that she's one of the day defensive roles is an example. But, there is a difference between responding naturally and intentionally putting thought into 'how can I hint about my character's habits and background vaguely.' For example: "I dare you to vote me!" That's fine. Because it doesn't point to a specific role. You can guess: bluffing Venatori, Solas, Jose or Iron Bull. "Come over to the tavern and dare to vote me!" That's hinting too specifically. To be honest, with no hints and so few special abilities actually coming into play, this round could have taken place anywhere.
I would say it was also bad luck during this round. You didn't have Mabari or Dorian and Varric with Leli got killed earlier. Thus, you didn't have hints. It's easier when your invests are alive. Normally, you should have more clues. I find that allowing no hints at all makes it too much a matter of guesswork in the first couple of rounds.You aren't suppose to catch spies during the first round unless you are very lucky. Round one is a lot of guess work from which the patterns emerge to make you suspicious during the following rounds. So long as the narrative doesn't confirm who is present one way or the other then you still have to work out if the claim is genuine or not.
+ This only helps the villains at the start of the game. Once all the floating roles die, you get immediately identified as the bluffer because 'no more space' on the floating roles list. This makes it impossible for the villains to win a game because in the final game rounds all the slots are filled. Also, some roles are able to prove their existence with their special abilities and players can simply demand the villains give proof. Villain: I'm Varric. Heroes: Ok. Shoot someone tonight. The villain is screwed the next day. Villain: I'm Jose. Heroes: You aren't in danger then if I vote you. Go ahead and divert votes. Villain: fruitcake... : ( + Since claiming roles is the easiest way to catch spies, players don't use any other methods of catching villains. All you have to do it keep voting people and demanding their roles to build a list within the first round. + Allowing vague hints - this rule only holds for as long as the player isn't accused. If you're innocent and get voted for, then players slip into dropping heavy and obvious hints out of desperation. That's not fair to the villains because that player would have been voted off otherwise. I don't believe allowing players to claim roles is the correct course of action, however, we could ease the restrictions in terms of the content and not police it as heavily. Players shouldn't be breaking their head about what would accidentally give them away.

This makes it impossible for the villains to win a game because in the final game rounds all the slots are filled. Also, some roles are able to prove their existence with their special abilities and players can simply demand the villains give proof. The reason it was difficult for us was the first narrative gave away too much. Leliana was said to be walking around with Varric and Cullen could be seen with Dorian. Solas died the first night and this put paid to the war Sera had put him with, which of course confirmed that Sera was present. So suddenly we had 6 roles (2 always there and 4 floating) confirmed as present. The mabari puppies had only just been introduced so were a definite. That left only one floating role at the end of the first night, which was of course Josephine (Smiles) who took pre-emptive action when he looked like being voted off and got rid of the puppies. So at the end of Day 1 ALL the roles that were present had been identified. # Now if the initial narrative had omitted the information that Leliana had investigated the person who was Varric and Cullen had protected the person who was Dorian, that would have left it more vague for the majority of people. Leliana would have known the person who was Varric and that role was present but the rest would have been in the dark. For all Cullen knew he might have been protecting a spy. That is what I was getting at. In this particular game there were still two floating roles present right to the end and it was the doubt about which one was Sera (even though roles had not been claimed) that was the puzzle for Dragon. She knew it had to be Sera because we had been told that the war between Fylimar and Serza had ceased on Cole's death. However, both were putting a convincing argument for their innocence and this would have been true even if both had openly hinted at being Sera. Anyway, whatever the case next round, you can sign me up for the Christmas game. I'm intrigued as to what you have in store.

GAME 5 SIGN UP LIST
1. Tittus 2. romice 3. gervaise21 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. YES! Time hath come to reveal my plan! HO HO HO!
A Special Christmas Season Game Round Comes to Skyhold!
Those sneaky Grinch Venatori are out to get the Inquisitor's beautiful Christmas Tree!
Casting The Grinch Venatori and Heroes as the Christmas Tree Toys! I want it to be a surprise, thus, I will reveal exactly which toys as the game progresses. There will be a picture of a Christmas Tree posted at the start of the game. As the game progresses, the toys abducted by the Grinch Venatori will appear on the Christmas Tree.
+ For those who want I can make a small icon for your role's Christmas Tree Toy once you are eliminated! ~ I promised to do one round with the cast being the 'villagers.' These plans are still active, but I would like to move that game post Christmas. gervaise21 Great! Welcome to the Christmas Round! I'm afraid that allowing the players to hint at roles simply leaves the villains with zero chances of winning, thus, keeping this rule cannot be bypassed. However, it would be more fun if the players wouldn't be nailed as hard as they were in the previous game for making ambiguous comments. The restrictions can definitely be eased in this aspect, so players do not feel like they must edit everything they say so it wouldn't look like a hint. Make the 'no hint' rule a little less strict, but no role claims please or intentionally sliding in character references about their culture or habits.

Hmm... we don't put Christmas "toys" on our trees so every one of them will definitely be a surprise for me I just love Christmas, so combining it with a game based on a videogame... that's a dream come true right there. I'm sure it'll be awesome. And also, I do agree with what garvaise is saying. The lack of any hints made 90% of votes completely random for most of the game. There wasn't really anything to go on except for voting patterns. Maybe a couple of comments here and there, but they were sooo vague. And I didn't even realise that my comment about the Sera war ending so soon could be interpreted as a hint, until Serza pointed it out That said, your suggestion about allowing unspecific clues seems reasonable. I just hope it won't turn into a war of "was that clue too obvious, or not?"

I just hope it won't turn into a war of "was that clue too obvious, or not?" Your comment was not a hint. You were 100% within the rules during the game. This is exactly how the game should be played without the role claims. You and Pela had different natural reactions towards the event. This is not you intentionally sitting there and thinking 'hmm how can I let them know that I'm Sera.' It just that night event happened and you both reacted to it. Then Serza analyzed both comments/psychological reactions and made a correct deduction which one of you is the villain. That's precisely how you play without claiming roles. + I believe when Pela was speaking, she wasn't comparing herself and you. She was saying that in general it was unfair to hold it against her that she hadn't claimed a role during the game when claiming roles was not allowed. ___ No Christmas Tree toys? Oh? What sort of things do you decorate your trees with and do you have Christmas trees?

GAME 5 SIGN UP LIST
1. Tittus 2. romice 3. gervaise21 4. Space Cowboy 5. pelassarias 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.@space I recall some of the members wishing for a bit of a scenery change. While this won't change the roles or Skyhold, the setting is slightly different since you will get to pose as the Christmas tree toys vs Grinch Venatori sneaking in each night to steal one toy. @pela One day the villains shall win! I believe in them! We must have moar twinkling lights!

You had to remind me of my responsibilities. I'm super excited because we tend to start getting serious snowfall, the type that will stay on the ground rather than melt, closer to the middle/end of December. Each Christmas season I get bouncy when we start having big snow - like today the type which I need to go shovel - because I always want a white Christmas. Meanwhile,the Greek sun burns our eyes and flesh...I probably have experienced white christmas less times than the fingers of my one hand Lucky you!I will become The Grinch of Ferelden and steal your snow That being said,hit me up for another round,addoniel!
