My soul has died after finishing Kingdom of Ash. I literally want to cry for the rest of my life 😭

So you recommend the series?  I haven't found a new fantasy series that I liked for a long time.  I didn't really the Game of Thrones, even, though I eventually got into the TV series.  I hear Hulu is working on a TV series.

Believe this one is a book series. Be happy to recommend some fantasy books if you're interested, but can't say I'm terribly familiar with TV shows of that variety.

Highly recommend the series. I literally cried so much in the final book. It’s full of plot twists and action, adventure, romance, competition, magic, suspense, you name it. One thing I highly recommend is that you don’t look up anything about it cause it’ll spoil it for you. It’ll be hard but if you stick to that you’ll enjoy it the most.

I heard about the Hulu Series but idk if it’s happening cause Maas hasn’t said much about it. But I promise you that like every element is present there. Lots of deductive reasoning if you can figure it out :).

Female main protagonist but there are also other characters whose viewpoints are told. Definitely highly recommend. Here’s the order I’d reccomend:

Assassin’s Blade, Throne of Glass, Crown of Midnight, Heir of Fire, (Assassin’s Blade again as a refresher if you want), Queen of Shadows, Empire of Storms, Tower of Dawn, Kingdom of Ash.

Every time I have reread the series I’ve discovered something new that I missed last time.

I read Throne of Glass in middle school 6-8 grades and just read the final book in my first year of college. Probably my all time favorite series

I was not playing live mafia because of work (no longer an issue), and have continued to not play because I damages my vocal cord and have to rest my voice maximum extent to avoid surgery. So, short answer I will be participating normal. I think we should probably vote for speed for full claim, since everyone seems so reluctant to lynch him all the time and therefore gets away with murder as scum.

I think my role is an SOP, but I am unsure. Erring on the side of it being one, I am hated. I disagree with my character being hated since they are an x-mas fav. of mine, but alas Danielle must have bad taste.

A good fantasy series should definitely make you cry a few times.

Awesome, hope to see you in live games again soon. Sorry about your vocal chords :/

I am not sure I have got the vibe people are reluctant to lynch him, I would easily push him for a lynch if he did something I suspect. If you are referring to the last game, the context I think it was justified he didn't claim. Mikal had pushed him to claim because he thought he was "typing" on discord, and refused to believe it was a glitch. Speed screamed town to me there, and he was actually town. I wouldn't have claimed if I were him in that circumstance either.

Digression from what? There had been no discussion at that point. Just voicing a theory.

I think it is just an xmas theme based on what I know about my character and your apparent character claim

Not sure if you like to read fiction, but the Stormlight archives is one of the best Fantasy series I've ever read. Way better than GOT.

We know it's an Xmas theme b/c Danielle said so in signups, just don't know the specific theme split

Stormlight is pretty amazing, as is the Mistborn series by the same author, Brandon Sanderson. Also recommend the Old Kingdom trilogy from Garth Nix. I'm personally a big fan of the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan, but that one's a slog.

I don’t think we need a Character from her. Leave it available for a CC. Same thing for Oro but he already claimed sadly

I guess that's an anti-town role to counter balance the innocent child. Depending on if we get a lot of anti town roles claimed or not, I buy it for balance purposes. The obvious statement here is that the longer the game goes on and you aren't killed, the more likely it is we don't make it to lylo since hypothetically scum could insta hammer you.

I don’t see an incentive for scum to claim Hated cause it’s suicide. She’s the best lynch today if we don’t have a suitable candidate today

Where did ya go?

Was expecting a follow up to the point you made about me "Diverting" the game when no one was on. Starting to feel like that line of investigation was contrived.
