Julia H. Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 5 hours ago, Ser Not Appearing said: Nothing worse than a theme that fits pretty well and (more importantly) just feels right... but doesn't seem to work for your own damn character. I know this feeling. Are you sure you checked out everything with regard to your own character? In the case of important characters with a lot of story it is easy to overlook something.

Dolorous Gabe Posted November 2, 2016 Author Share Posted November 2, 2016 So the deadline is upon us but I'm just going to delay a couple of hours to give one player a chance to check prelim scores and make any last adjustments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolorous Gabe Posted November 2, 2016 Author Share Posted November 2, 2016 Starting the count up momentarily. Edited to add: So I'm just gonna wait a little longer to publish because I'm awaiting one player to get back to me on something. I've done the count up now so no changes please. I will be able to publish everything quite quickly once I have a response. Whatever happens, I will publish by the end of tonight. If you like, I could actually start R3 before I publish results of R2? I think I have all the new clues in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ser Not Appearing Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Sers, Shadows and background extras who will surely die this winter: Having someone else be the cause of a delay after me is really infringing on my right to be the problem. It's unacceptable. If you're going to be the cause of a delay, do it before my delay. - Me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ser Not Appearing Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 ... and your lack of faith in my driving while researching awoiaf in the rain during rush hour is insulting.

Dolorous Gabe Posted November 2, 2016 Author Share Posted November 2, 2016 ROUND 3 CLUES Now we come to the main event. Round 3 will sort out the pretenders from the contenders and one player shall rise from the rabble and take the Acrophilia crown and bask in the glory of exalted triumph. Here is an important piece of information regarding the theme that I feel has to be given. It is a theme that relies upon some semi-canon sources and some specific research may be required to discover the connection. But first, you will need to work out the answers, and these are all obscure characters apart from two. The two that are not obscure were provided by the Acro-Demon but this time you will not find out which in prelims. You will, however, receive feedback like in Round One. 1. Commander? Orange. Rebuffed. Terminated. 2. Gloomy peepers and discoloration. 3. Controls occidental rangers, timeworn. 4. Capitulation, ordered rival. “Throne.” 5. Coronation of roasted trinket. 6. Goldless. “Panthera's awoken.” Debtor. 7. Gallant: Prison. Ape: Departed. 8. Coastal overlord, ringing tower. 9. Guards “Prince Azor”; disarming. 10. Got punched after dissing..... 11. Climbs on raised turmoil. Theme??? Deadline yet to be decided. May the best Acrophile win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castellan Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Have to say I like these baffling clues. Gloomy peepers, roasted trinkets, departed apes.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julia H. Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 LOL, I like the clues, too, though at first sight it seems the acro-demon's shadow is looming over each of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before I saw these clues, I was pretty certain my chances at winning were nil... given the objections our host voiced about my clue. I'm no longer certain.

Fragile Bird Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 But then again I sit here and snarl at all the clues in every round, because they always look totally unsolveable. And I said before, I was very disappointed in you all in Round 1, Gabe and I both thought the clue was excellent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
