Werewolf CLXI - GAME OF THRONES: GAME OVER!! (See Post #2356--Page 48)

[hoopsguy]

Unless the servants of Asshai, whom Stannis is beholden to, demand sacrifice. I'm surprised no one mentioned this, with the lone exception being the small folk (hi, Alan T!) who eavesdrop on the discussions of nobility.

Your argument about a focus on Lannisters, when executing a prisoner who is no longer considered part of the house, rings false. Both Renly and Robb should have reason to be wary, although only one would-be ruler took action.

And giving lands back to the Lannisters, don't forget

[Autumn]

I am beholden to nobody, Tywin. The Asshai woman you speak of spends all her time elsewhere. She hasn't demanded a sacrifice of me, she hasn't even voted!

Your argument makes no sense. I executed him so that no other house would rise above the others and cause dissent. You understanding counting enough to understand that. But like your daughter you'll do anything you can to turn attention from your house to mine.

I'm sure that keep is going to turn the tide. If one keep is such a boon to the Lannisters you're suggesting I should have kept it myself? And I wonder what you would be saying about me then? Oh that I was grasping at power and dangerous to the realm, that's what the Lannisters were saying all day when they thought I would keep Clegane. Now that I didn't I'm somehow just as dangerous. It would make me laugh if that was something I did.

Indeed.

Ser Gregor had already promised his alligiance to Lord Renly, as Stannis was no doubt aware. Stannis as good as killed one of our own. We do not forgive and we do not forget.

Stannis: You returned lands to the Lannisters, lands that could have been used against them. Your arguement assumes that there is no inequality between the houses already, which I doubt is the case.

Not dangerous. Just maybe not as smart as you had thought.

I'd suggest that Cersei receives it, but the only receiving she gets seems to be from you Kingslayer.

Perhaps Baelish would like Gregor's lands? I don't think he'd want those particular lands. They really should go the way of the House of Reyne.

I know thinking isn't your style, Jaime. Had i kept Clegane, he or Melisandre would have undoubtedly been voted tomorrow. Is that smart? Oh, it is for the Lannisters. But I'm not a Lannister.

[bhlloy]

It seems your alliance did a poor enough job keeping her off the block today, and that was before you double crossed your brother. We will see what the Gods decide I suppose

[Autumn]

Double crossed? You seem privy to more information than I do.

[fontisian]

And you seem to be poor in reading comprehension.

[Chief Rum]

There is much confusion. The kingdom seems split.

Half want Melisandre. The other half want Jaime Lannister.

Maester Pycelle of the Small Council is asked to check the history books for how this matter has been resolved in the past.

He slowly dotters off into the Great Library in the Red Keep, while the nobles gather and wait, and Tyrion gets drunk.

After several hours, the old maester returns with a thick book labelled "The Laws of the Land, First Edition".

"I have the answer," Pycelle croaks!

He carefully lies the dusty book down, and then opens it slowly. He turns carefully to a page marked by an undipped feather quill.

"It says heerrreee," Pycelle says, squinting with his finger poised on the text, "that every candidate becomes an Enemy of the Realm! It seems they chose to be safer killing them all, then not having a decision! So both Jaime Lannister (bhlloy) and Melisandre (bulletsponge) are declared Enemies of the Realm!

He looks up at the gathered crowd as he finishes and starts to close the book... but he suddenly stops.

"Wait! There is more!" he exclaims quaveringly. "It seems that those who would perpetrate a tie are also selected for punishment!"

It scans further done.

"These perpetrators, per this book from Aegon the Conqueror himself, mind you, would seem to be none other than the last voter on each man! " Pycelle says.

"That is Roose Bolton (JAG) and Ser Loras Tyrell (murrayyyyy)!"

The old maester reads from the book, "...and those who would perpetrate such a tie, last voters on each bannermen they must be, seek to ruin the kingdom through indecision and confusion!"

Pycelle stops in some astonishment and consternation as he looks up from the book.

"They are to be declared Enemies of the Realm as well!"

[Autumn]

Well, someone has succeeded in sowing chaos. Perhaps that was the goal.

[Autumn]

[Autumn]

Pretty funny that it ended up being one from every house. Hooray!

Well I used up too much of my evening monitoring this. I must go.

[MrBug708]

So four enemies of the realm, all from different realms..

[mauchow]

Crazy crazy.

[Chief Rum]

The following players are now ALL Enemies of the Realm:

Ser Jaime Lannister (bhlloy) of HOUSE LANNISTER
The Lady Melisandre (bulletsponge) of HOUSE BARATHEON OF DRAGONSTONE
Lord Roose Bolton (JAG) of HOUSE STARK
Ser Loras Tyrell (murrayyyyy) of HOUSE BARATHEON OF STORM's END

Every King in the realm faces a decision. Normal rules of Enemy of the Realm apply. Final decisions for all must come by 1 p.m. EST tomorrow (10 a.m. PDT)

[Coffee Warlord]

...Hoookay.

[MrBug708]

One hand of the King

Look to your own hand for that, as your execution of Ser Gregor while simultaneously spurning your cooperative venture with your brother, played the largest role in the tie.

My only role was in asking for the rules of the land to be upheld. That should certainly appeal to one such as Stannis Barathorn, no?

[MrBug708]

What's the schedule for this weekend?

I don't understand either of these things. I had no cooperative venture that was spurned, other than ridding the realm of Lannisters. And I don't know what rule you mean.

Your role certainly doesn't surprise me. It surprises me that people actually fell for it. The Lannisters were on their heels and now everyone is. Foolish.

[path12]

I will state publicly right now.

Ser Loras' vote was at my request. He shall not be punished for it.

[Chief Rum]

Holiday weekend. We will be off. Deadline wil run Friday night and then resume Tuesday.

Of course, everyone is welcome to continue posting and doing whatever, but no actions taken will be acted upon before Tuesday.

[path12]

I will also point out to the other three Kings that if all of us take the dishonorable hit we are even still.

[fontisian]

[Chief Rum]

Just a head's up, this is going to take a bit. I have to clear out a ton of PMs and make sure I have all of the actions in place before I start to get results going.

So Day Three has more or less begun unofficially, but it will be official in bit.

I wouldn't recommend sticking around waiting for your action results unless you'll just be on the computer anyway.

Sorry for the delays. I gave y'all way too much to do every day.

What? I'm sure I haven't sent you more than 20 or so in the past half hour. Slacker.

That is not the message I received. I will discuss it with Renly in private.

(ooc)I sometimes call this the "create-a-power" problem
Moderating that game was death, and I expect this one isn't too far behind, minus the mind-numbing math(/ooc)

[Coffee Warlord]

What, I've only had to clear out my mailbox twice already...in two days...and I'm not running the game...good god.

[hoopsguy]

Perhaps we can create another tie tomorrow, to see how deep in the archives Master Pycelle needs to go in order to resolve it.

[Coffee Warlord]

I can see it now. The entire realm is an enemy of the realm.

[Coffee Warlord]

Which...is probably fitting.

[path12]

They can all flee to Storm's End if they'd like.

[hoopsguy]

Renly, what does it say to you that Stannis felt it was more important to execute Ser Gregor than to cement your allegiance today? As I asked earlier, what could have been his purpose in doing so?

Were I still at your keep, I would ask this in private. But that option is not readily available to me.

I don't want/need a public answer; just a question worth discussing with your bannermen moving forward.

[DaddyTorgo]

[ooc] sorry i wasn't around to weigh in guys. flight cancelled, trapped in montreal for the night. should be asleep already...3:45am wakeup call. back to normal tomorrow though. going to bed now. [/ooc]

At this time I will just affirm that the issue has been a hot topic in Storm's End this evening.

[Coffee Warlord]

I'm off to bed. Try not to kill anyone else till morning!

[InBlue]

(ooc) Yeah, I still have work to do, and then bed... (/ooc)

And Bulletsponge/Melisandre, please check in at the Dragonstone thread...

[MrBug708]

Melisandre is an enemy of the realm. I do not think they can post there

[InBlue]

I thought she could, until she either fled or was disavowed/released?
