Yeah, I'm totally impressed with us! Now let's see where we're headed... Oblivion, probably.
I say we all pick one of our opposite number and let the blood flow...

"I don't know," Snufkin replied.
The door shut again and Snufkin entered his forest, with a hundred miles of silence ahead of him.
Plus, I got to rest for an entire day in a crypt, you guys will LOVE it.

So now the question is, are we protecting or killing? Or both for those with a pair of stones. Or hoarding?

I am going to go back and see who spent their stones doing what...

Ok, so if everything is at face value, Himmel has three survivors, Qantaga has one possible stone, Bakh is empty, King Lagom is undeclared. Erde has three survivors, Bubbles has one possible stone, and both Sectoid and King Stess are empty. Meer has all five, with a protect, 2 rezz, and a Ping used out of 10 stones. If this is all true, Meer could spread six stones across the six enemies... Of course, all of that requires the statements made thus far to be true. Newcastle is Herr Himmel if LM/Scoop aren't hiding among the Meer. LM is pretty well secure as Meer. Ditto for Prince triggercut of Erde. And lastly, mister chaosmeer the fool. Doubtful he is Erde.

Assuming we reach an impasse today what happens, because it looks like it should be three on three.
Wouldn't it be better to just kill the remaining King and try to win?
Stone needs to be attuned to win... Or presumably we need to have only Meer standing. As much as anything else we need to keep tru1cy alive to make sure he doesn't fall and let dod win.
Sectoid could hardly throw up any defense as their blows beat him to the earth.
The beating continued until the earth itself gave way and swallowed the pulpy remains. Bubbling up from the bloody mud, a gold coin flopped to the surface.
Sectoid was a King.
The day was still young... and the remaining contestants looked at each other and at their alcoves. Would the gates rise? Would the sun set?
The gates did rise... But not just the 16 gates of the Contestants. All the hundreds of gates that circled the huge arena rose. This contest was over.
As the warriors walked out of the arena, they were met by the cheers of thousands of Meer citizens.
In the months that followed, the Meer Majesty waged a series of merciful campaigns realigning the allegiances of the land to their King; the Key Holder, tru1cy.
Meer Majesty is victorious.
Moderators technical note:
Tonight would have been the first night with 'no stones', and as such, tonight every living contestant would have received a single new stone. (Last night, Scoop used his last stone to protect Tru1cy)
While it is/was technically possible for any of the remaining Meer players to re-attune a Key found on Lagom Lite or Sectoid, I made the executive decision that since the Meer where the only players left alive, there was no sense forcing everyone to go through one more night in the alcove at all, however it should be noted that, technically, Chaosraven would very likely have ended the game resurrected by one of those stones. Oddly, as I never would have guessed it - but that means that this game (would have very likely) ended with every Meer alive and everyone else dead. Amazing.
My detailed notes of what each stone was used for are at home (I will share that information tonight).
The Contestants
3. msteelers - Dod
Himmel House
2. Lagom Lite - King Himmel
8. Bakhtosh - Prince Himmel
10. Grundbegriff - Baron Himmel
5. Newcastle - Herr Himmel
1. Qantaga - Jester Himmel
It was quite satisfying to be taken as a King and to get Sectoid hidden as Herr all without ever sending or receiving a ping. I used both my stones to kill Newcastle and Trig as I mentioned. All other talk of communication was a lie. I knew who my King was and I saw Bubbles following him around like a lost puppy. I thought LM might have been Erde because of how the tru1cy reveal went down. Everything else was just putting the pieces of the puzzle together based on stated roles.
Hey msteelers - what did you do each night? And why Chaos to start?
Nice deception by Erde. I thought through the end that stessier was the King. Did you ping each other to conspire and discuss, or did Sectoid simply take the chance to play along?
But you've seen who's in heaven
Is there anyone in hell?
