SRK Arena Hunger Games 2: Pirates Arena Day 14: The Chief is our Champion!

  • He possibly didn’t spill the beans since I was trying to play ball with him since the beginning. Just like he said he’s been thinking about spreading who the biggest threats are. It’s been a dance. Though now I wonder what, if anything, he wants from me. Since he has not spilled the beans. *

I think Forge covered it, but Aidebit’s ability appears to be TGG’s from last game. His Attack actions occur before other people’s Scavenges or Defends. I should’ve noticed when Augustus gave him the dagger, since it’s not very useful otherwise, and he went for armor aside when he had only the dagger.

Yeah, I don’t imagine he likes you very much after you formed a plan to kill him, which does make it odd that he hasn’t flat-out outed your ability yet.

@ Chief do we get off these damn boats tomorrow? Even if we don’t, just say yes so I feel better.

So @Aidebit, it’s pretty clear you have one of the most threatening abilities. What reason do I have to keep you alive today?

…Oh right, you.

Going into this, I never really had a gameplan, a style, per se. I mostly just wanted to make chaos and confusion erupt. I guess last phase really did that for me. I’m not okay with dying yet, however.

I won’t say Heca’s ability because he got roped into this. However, I will repeat, DG’s ability possesses some similarities to Hecatom’s. There’s a reason for Hecatom scavenging what he’s scavenged so far.

Well, that explains both why he got shot by the cannon, and why he “wanted something from me” i.e. Brass Knuckles. That means that, unless the -1 attack functions very oddly, he has 2 attack. 3 from the cannon, and then -1 from the shield. Good self-restraint on not punching Alpha to death last phase DarkGeneral, I’m impressed.

He was obviously relying on Forge and I to betray him. It’s not impressive.

“I’m impressed” was referring to his self-restraint from not throwing you over the side, not his reliance on you guys throwing the first stone.

Yeah, yeah, I have a threatening ability. You guys just need to pick up a shield and poof, there goes all my hopes of getting another kill in. Besides, if you kill me, then Forge kills you. My ability was indeed useful in the early game, due to my [Augustus’] dagger, but all you need to do is scavenge some armour, and you’re safe.

Besides, I wouldn’t say that your ability isn’t harmless, either.

Also, has anyone entertained the idea that the ships will remain in play until only one person is left alive on each one?

EDIT: Augustus with that WTF though.

We could take him out now if we wanted to, Alpha. I thought it was scarier than that. Like he would deal damage equal to his defense when attacked, or something.

Of course, it’s up to Fuzzy for me. I’m not going to break an alliance for my own fun.

…Or am I?

Spoiler

I’m not.

It is as I’m typing this that I realize that damage is not dealt the same way as it is in mtg. >.< FML

But yeah, this is pretty boring.

That would be so goddamn rigged.

Ship 1:
Guy who can double Stealth
Guy who knows upcoming hazards
Guy who can scavenge better

Ship 2:
Guy with First Strike
Guy with insta-kill Syringe
Guy with DG-esque ability

Ship 3:
Guy with unknown ability
Gal with unknown ability
Guy who deals more damage the more damage he takes

No, but he wanted us to attack him so that he’d gain an extra +6 attack.

Or you could just shoot him twice Alpha. That + Forge’s attack would seal the deal no matter what he did.

@DarkGeneral, what reason do you have to not attack me this phase?
@ForgeDigger, would you be mad if I killed Aidebit?

*Close but no cigar. You and Forge saying that you “locked onto your target” made my suspicion meter go up. You used the same wording and you two already have trust in one another. Me? I’m just the bard trying to swing a few deals. If i were to attack you and you guys pincer attacked me i’d be fucked. If my intuition was right then it’d only feed into my revenge meter, but more importantly it’d save my life.

I have to say I"m pleasantly surprised that neither one of you turned on me. Specially you Mr Dingo. *

*My reason? Not dying to you and forge attacking me. Killing you but losing my life isn’t appealing to me. *

You think your ship is boring. We’re all playing hide-and-seek. Chief & I suck at it though, so we just went and hid to wait for MP. But he got all PLOT TWIST on us and is trying to out-hide us now.

You guys couldn’t kill him if he defended. He has 3 defense, which would double to 6. You’d deal 3 damage and Alpha would deal 3 damage. Unless one of the two of you does more damage than you “should” because of ability, you’d only make him a beast with 8 attack. And wouldn’t you know, THEN the ships would go away.

*From a game design standpoint I very much doubt we’ll be on these ships until only 1 man remains on each ship. If you think about it we spent 2 days on land and now we’re spending 2 days on the ship. But you don’t have to believe my speculation. My brother Chief Negrodamus can confirm that we leave this ship by some other means. *

Well assuming you didn’t tell us that you were attacking me, you could get a free kill on me today. But judging by the fact that you’re going for longevity in this game with your ability, it makes sense to assume that you won’t.

Forge’s default action would be to protect you, as she would survive an attack from DarkGeneral and you wouldn’t.
