You're too quick for me. I had got as far as Harine but couldn't find her full name so thought I'd check in first.

She's about the only Seafolk name I can remember :myrddraal:

I shouldn't have to write a no cheating rule guys.

 

I'm not angry..... I'm just disappointed.

I'm not disputing your POV or definition, but for clarification, I honestly didn't and don't really see it as cheating, personally. Common sense would say that no team would help another because that hurts its chances of winning, but if someone did decide to help someone on another team, it's only helping the other team, not the team of the person helping. If that makes sense? Like, helping would be risking losing your own lead. Cheating usually is for mutual gain of some sort, if it involves two people/groups/etc working together in a game setting.

 

That's why I honestly didn't think of it like it was something bad.

It could be seen as you simply abandoning your own interests to help another team ensure victory. Alternatively you're beating us so bad that you don't care if we get a little help because you're so confident that you'll still beat us.

 

I still don't have any more clue about our cryptic though. At this point i think our best bet might just be 'No'.

You were allowing another team to gain an advantage over the rest. It was cheating. That is the end of the matter. Don't do it again.

problem is we now have to explain it so we can't just say yes or no or Ithi won't accept it and since none of us seems to know what it is talking about we'd be better off with a new question

Eh, maybe. I'm all right with it if you guys are. If we get this one wrong will our next question be for the wedge also?

 

Edit: oh, we have to explain it? Yeah, i think we want a new question.

Powerless and commanded by the first among men.

 

The Dragon Reborn is the first among men.

 

He commanded a forsaken, who was powerless to stand against him.

 

I think the answer we want is Asmodean.
