I’m beginning to realize that the reason why I struggle with this game so much is that I have absolutely no recollection of these people beyond their names, so I have to start with tedious googling to get an idea what the hell their story was… 

Me too….

I learned a lot about the story by playing games. I never did read it systematically through in order. I galloped ahead with interesting POVs eg Arya, left others behind. Actually I think it was rereading to find the answers to 20 questions that taught me the most!

I'm having last-minute acrophobia leftover phobia.  Do I stick or do I switch?

I former games I always regretted switching  but maybe fortune favors the switcher now

I've had a request for a modest extension.  You have until noon EST 10/7/2022 to make changes.  If you need more time than that let me know.

[Ser Not Appearing]

I prefer nude extensions. Let's debate.

[Howlin' Howland]

Round 1 Results:

1. Murderous, jabbering after jinxed royal nobble. (Ser Not Appearing) 1+1+3+1+3+3+4 = 16

2. Warlock and sorcerer. Verily blue. (Eternally_His) 1+1+1+1 = 4

3. Weeps a shade vengeful blue (Dolorous Gabe) 1+1+1+1 = 4

4. Warlock? Arson survivor? Vaguely blue? (RhaenysBee) 1+1+2 = 4

5. Warlock attempted sorrowful vengeance.  Boohoo. (Jez Bell) 1+1+2+2+2+2+2 = 12

6. Mostly just a jaundiced, repulsive necromancer. (Fragile Bird) 1+1+1+3+3+2 =11

7. Marine journey appalling. “Joined” repugnant navy. (Castellan) 1+1+3+3+1 = 9

 

Ser Not Appearing, despite his complaints, won the round.  Almost everyone thought Jez’s entry was second.  I was happy to see that everyone gave their first place votes to players who tried to tackle the brutal MJAJRN letters.

Standings:

Ser Not Appearing 16

Jez Bell 12

Fragile Bird 11

Castellan 9

Eternally_His 4

Dolorous Gabe 4

RhaenysBee 4

Please check my math, I may have made an error.

I’ll post the Round 3 letters shortly, but you have until noon EST tomorrow to finalize your round 2 entries.

Round 3:

Quaithe

Acronyms:

PCPGE

BVNGBH

YPBQNEQ

Deadline:

Try to get me your responses and votes by next Friday, 10/14/2022, at 5:00 PM EST.  If you want an extension, ask.

I swear to you, I am using a random number generator to come up with these letters and I am not trying to be cruel.  Good luck this round.

[Ser Not Appearing]

My only other acro for that round was:

"Warlock. Abiding "sorrow" vexes babe." 

I feel like both that and the one I submitted were better acrophilia clues than acrophobia clues ... either way, thanks for the votes, er, but don't worry too much about the myrrh next time. All right? Heh.

[Howlin' Howland]

Round 2 Entries (Bloodraven):

1.   Many timed person. One "looker."

2.  Mystical tree person? Ocular loss.

3.  Raven cultivated little ravener. “Greensight indispensable: Fly!"

4.  Quarantine! Bloodraven has greenlit wildfire cremations.

5.  "Mmm tasty paste" - omnipotent lord

6.  quirks: bastard, Hand, geriatric warlock & culinarian. 

7. Quiet, bitches!  He's grooving with children!

 

Vote for your top 3.  Good luck

[Castellan]

I was reading this list and unable to vote. They are so diverse and good. But I have to sometime so here goes:

1.  (4)

2. (1)

3. (7)

 

 

[Dolorous Gabe]

1st) 6

2nd) 7

3rd) 3

[Ser Not Appearing]

If everyone could try and vote for the bad clues this time, that would be helpful.

[Castellan]

it would be equally as difficult to pick the worst three as the best three, IMO.

 

....oops, maybe that sounds rude ... I meant its just the other side of the coin ... since its very hard to choose whose best or who I like most it would equally be hard to start from the bottom!
