Alternatively, could you go and search 53) Rubbish Tip West for us? We need to trigger the scene so we can heal pokemon there Daniel can clear the zone of corruption.

Done!

Thanks! This means that tonight we get to find out if the Stalkers take turns making kills or not! And we believe we have the last three Stalkers (Abatis, Epsilon, and Gravemind (I think?) pinned down: Kannari, Marisha, and Orin.
So either they won't kill tonight, or we'll SEE it, or one of the other Stalkers will fill in and make the kill, and we'll at least have the information that they don't need to take turns.

What should I do tonight?

Hey Emerald! You already had a turn during the night cycle (you used clairvoyance on the talisman!). I'm going to get Lillian to follow up on that asap. Woohoo! Its like we are making an item search and rescue factory!

When morning breaks, as long as none of us are dead or need rescuing, it would be great if you could use clairvoyance on the "bootleg key 2/2" which our lucario just rescued from a seriously locked box. We have to look for "bootleg key 1/2" somewhere, and i'm sure clairvoyance will help us know where to start.

@Lychee

All right--I'll do that after inspecting the latest kill (if no one beats me to that)

**Lychee** · 10-01-2019, 11:40 PM

I wonder if I'm doing this wrong - should I be roleplaying as Lillian in this thread? I'm always on my phone so I cant easily find or put in the cute little pictures people use to show character voice, but i'm sure I could do something else! Since we've been asked to limit our dialogue to just a few lines in the main action thread, should most of our roleplaying be done here? Or should I keep using the thread like an organisational hub?
I just get the feeling i'm playing the game the wrong way somehow! Maybe if I treat it more like an RP story than a meta puzzle requiring teamwork, it'll work out nicely?

You can totally do it either way. I think we started doing that but kind of drifted off. XD

It definitely is more fun when people RP, but you don't need to. :3

I'd love a more concrete answer than this, since we've been told to cut back on the RP.

Should we prioritize taking actions that benefit our win-condition, or that are in-character for our Pokemon avatars?

Nah, I didn't say cut back on the RP, just with the number of side questions during an NPC interview. And that's mainly just because it takes a long time to answer all those, not because we didn't like the RP element of it. Asking a couple questions is okay.

Also, wouldn't trying to aim for both of those at the same time be the best choice?

Ye I wouldn't worry about RPing if you can't. We tend to flip flop back and forth between doing it and not doing it. I, for example, only do it when I'm on my computer because it's easier to pull up the pics that way. Otherwise, I'll do what I'm doing right now because it's easier. So there's no pressure to RP if you can't. But if you want to keep RPing then go for it! Just up to you.
