Though, that doesn't really explain why dagny was protected Night 1. Could be that the holders of the Silmarils had a one-time protection from a night kill to protect said Silmarils.

I just don't think there would be more than 2 seers, but it's definitely possible.

Yeah, since we found all this information, instead of trying to decipher it let's go for people who haven't been "claimed" yet.

I think the part about oranges joining a union that mrandall says is probably true. I think they are orange because they have bad intentions. I do think the colors serve a purpose in this game, and aren't just randomly assigned. Red is bad. Green is good. Maybe orange needs to join red to form their union and green needs to join light green to form their union.

From what I read the House if Feanor never joins up with Morgoth but does kill other elves to get the silmarils. If Randall is telling the truth about shad being their big then I don't think we have to worry. From what I read their chief enemy was Morgoth just like the rest of the elf factions.

I also wouldn't be surprised if their is a sixth faction of dwarves.

I think it

I still don't really trust the oranges. They may not be for the reds per se, but I wouldn't be shocked if their goals were the defeat of Morgoth and getting the silmarils to win... basically more of an independent. From what I know/remember of Feanor, I have a hard time seeing them as beneficial in the long run.

Mrand keeps saying they have a second goal, after defeating the enemy. I agree with you in saying that i dont think they are good in the long run, since they must complete that second goal to win. Im curious was the goals of the yellow faction are. Yellow is usually an independent color, so Im assuming they are also not beneficial to the village.

The Primary goal is to defeat the enemy for my house. While that is my only goal, it may not be enough to win. Other forces are at work. I think certain groups can only join with other groups. I don't think any house can join any other house.

And I made an error with our color. This was pointed out by the rest of my group but I was hesitant to fix it right away for fear that I would get lynched but with all the other colors it seems color just puts you in factions, not strictly "good" and "bad". My color is FingonFingonFingon

This makes more sense to me then two green factions. Thanks for clarifying.

I'm starting to think the "red" color is "bad" and the "green" color is "good". The rest of us are trying to eliminate the "reds" as our primary goal and achieve some secondary goal to actually win. Regular villagers just need to eliminate the "reds" and I think they can consider to having won. Does that make sense?

WK (besides shad) was the only one that didn't vote for canaan.
I'm gonna keep my reasoning simple with all the extracurricular this game. We know canaan was bad, no questions there.

Colored for you, but it's a wasted vote. I'm blue. I'd look at the people that didn't vote at all on Day 1.

I'd imagine they would have attempted to make some play to get the vote off canaan instead of abstaining.

there's almost 0 chance the House Feanor is bad. None.
Maybe they aren't aligned with Morgoth, but they swore the Oath:
“Be he foe or friend, be he foul or clean
Brood of Morgoth or bright Vala,
Elda or Maia or Aftercomer,
Man yet unborn upon Middle-earth,
Neither law, nor love, nor league of swords,
Dread nor danger, not Doom itself
Shall defend him from Fëanáro, and Fëanáro’s kin,
Whoso hideth or hoardeth, or in hand taketh,
Finding keepeth or afar casteth
A Silmaril. This swear we all…
Death we will deal him ere Day’s ending,
Woe unto world’s end! Our word hear thou,
Eru Allfather! To the everlasting
Darkness doom us if our deed faileth…
On the holy mountain hear in witness
and our vow remember,
Manwë and Varda!"
And held to it to the point of being responsible for all three kin-slayings.

IMO it's very likely that the House of Fëanor cares only for the Silmarils, and couldn't care less if they have to kill everyone else to get them.

This interests me. MRandall has been on the offensive, guiding this whole journey. He's of Feanor like shad, who lied about his role to sound innocent. Zaro saw shad as red.

I'm a no-name villager. I don't have a PM telling me what my goal is, so it's confusion multiplied.

One piece still missing is slappy's confirmation of MR's see.

Except no one did. My vote was before any votes were on canaan, and no one voted for anyone else once the bandwagon started on canaan.

I see that, I didn't notice the order of the votes the first time through.

I like the BigMcK vote because the timing of him jumping on canaan bandwagon fits with something a red would do.

I think we should be looking at those late on canaan votes, or were quiet.

The only thing that I'm certain of at this point is that everyone who is not red wants to see them eliminated. Beyond that, it appears that we have at least 4 other factions, all of whom could potentially have ulterior motives. Crazy game is crazy.
