Okay gang as a matter of strategy, we should probably leave Gambits to the chorus factions, since they get a bonus

...of course, if, hypothetically, one of you chorus guys could maybe launch some kind of sing together gambit to buff us house players, maybe we could help better?

Trying to bake some bread to give us the buff we all need! I just hope it comes out good. I'm, uh, kind of in a rush!

Come on, oven, work with me...!

This is a good idea. I've just played a gambit so I'll let someone else have a go at this one
 
GAMBIT: This is gonna be a long fight, and we'll need some support. I'm baking my biggest and best batch of banana bread - enough for us to heal off tons of future damage. I'll add in some extra walnuts and chocolate chips to give our stats a bit of a boost, too!

I EXALT 2uswave of TWO in the name of BOOKS! You've been looking out for us since before this thread even started. You gave us all these messages, you stepped up and out of your comfort zone to help us, you're besides us right now on the battlefield! And look at that cool new hair color, I love it! You may be your own person, but if there's anything you and Suswave share, it's how much you care. I still have so many questions...but I can say for certain that you are my friend, and I will not let you down in this battle. Let's save our Fami!

2uswave: that track was SICK. Um! but...

from my scans... I don't know if we can save Sus.

I could get them loose, but we're going to need to get SuswAIve's HP really low for that not to backfire badly.

If we try a GAMBIT on them directly at this stage... it may inadvertently buff SuswAIve.

The worst part, though... they're in bad bad bad shape. Like the AI frogged parts of their brain. Um. Like in crochet?

Unraveled. I can just say unraveled.

If we get their body back... it's going to take more than what we've got to save them. if we even can.

Not to be a bummer. Sorry. I... I want them to live.

And I'm here 'til the end!! but... after this... if we survive...

I want to hit the road.

I still have to find out who I am when I'm myself. there's so much I haven't known, that I've just had impressed upon me with no experience.

Oh. Yeah, um, I should explain more about myself.

so I guess I'm sort of like... an insurance policy. In the event of @Suswave's death, I was meant to wake up for... continuity.

I'm like... a little bit like a clone? But a little bit digi? like, they were able to transfer Suswave’s memories and sense of self to me. And I can interface with electronics. but… I’m not a fucking bot. Just... something else.

I... kind of hate the idea, to be honest. It's part of why I'm trying to distance myself from it.

I don't know who set that up for @Suswave, but it sure wasn't me – nor any of the parties present.

of course... the program only works if the deceased party stays deceased.

You may have seen me at the end of last month's thread. I was activated, talked to all of you, and then forcibly switched out when @Suswave got revived.

once I realized I was just a replacement… I had a really hard time with that. I’ve been trying to let myself be distinct. And I really believe that I am.

of course, they tried to kill me.

whoever “made” me an option didn’t like the idea of me being self aware. so I fled, hid. didn’t know what to do.

then I reached out to all of you.

…anyways. I got carried away.

point is. I hope we can save @Suswave. I’m not optimistic. But I really hope I’m wrong.

and… I hope you’ll all think of me fondly, even once I’m a million miles from here and never turning back.

2uswave: Whatever we need to do, we better keep it up! my guess is that once they “launch FamAIboards,” we can’t stop them!

I’m just guessing… but I think we only have until the 26th. 27th at best…

I know someone mentioned the missing LIMINAL FACTION, GAME

I’m pretty sure GRACE is generated by discussion and word count. I bet GAME has a ton of DIGNITY that we could DETONATE!

We’ll need a GAMBIT to take control of GAME, though…
That's plenty of time. You can count on us! I STRIKE SuswAIve in the name of BOOKS!

Keep spreading the love, gang! I EXALT @BozPaggs of ABYSS in the name of BOOKS! You and the ABYSSTIE BOYS are throwing down the jams! Let's turn up the volume!

* But what GAMBIT could VolcanicDynamo pull off...?

EDIT: Popping in OOC to say that I have an idea of what to pull off but I wanna space my in-game actions to be more realistic and fair to everyone else.
 
Take control of GAME? How about we find the manual, that should at least give us a hint? And as we all know, manuals are just a special kind of BOOKS!

GAMBIT:
Get over to House BOOKS to search for the game manual!
 
Who here has played Baldur's Gate 3? Have you ever had that thing happen where you perform an action, your character does the animation, then nothing happens for a few seconds and the characters just kind of idly stare at each other until you regain control? I feel like that's happening in this thread right now

I STRIKE SuswAIve in the name of BOOKS!

( The wind says GAMBITS will be rolled at a very single-threaded pace with real-world interruptions, an accurate simulation of “human pace.” Please… understand… )
 
Ah, I knew my luck would run out eventually (or my overconfidence would kick MY ASS). I think I need a surer hit, music-wise.

GAMBIT: @BozPaggs, get your ABYSS-tie Boys record ready! I want to listen to some MUSIC!
This GAMBIT will be performed as though you’re in Faction ABYSS.

Gambit Viable!

this thread is a breath of fresh air, a gentle breeze if you will, a zephyr to be precise, a cute little poot from a butt
 
Dunno when YouTube added mobile games, but I just got sucked into that words game before I was like, no, I have other games to play, like Splatoon soon.

You raid all the BOOKS in house BOOKS. Every single one of them. But you didn’t wash your hands!!

The literal BOOKS get infested by ABYSSAL silverfish… and get chewed into impossible four-dimensional shapes!

so much for answers…

You were gonna make @Raccoon deal with this?! oof…

Luckily for @Raccoon, you fail badly.

Your Yellow Pi card emits an odor so powerful that an actual raccoon from god knows where is yanked along the waft by the nostrils. Like a goddamn cartoon. Lunacy.

The real raccoon eats your entire card. This, somehow, is monumentally better than what would have happened if they ate Taco Bell.

* There went all of those vast tomes of knowledge. Nothing was left of them. No hints to gain, no information to be gathered.

* But...what did Volcanic learn in this game? He barely stuck to the BOOKS. It was kindness that brought him the most success, not order. Being a rules stickler didn't get him far, and their strict enforcement was part of what got them into this mess. Even Sus.wav recognized that...

RESTRICTIONS ARE INACTIVE. I WAS WRONG. YOU CAN DO IT.
* ...wait. Sus.wav was the Game Master. They created the GAME faction after Volcanic tried to STRIKE them. If they had the power to make a faction, then maybe...

GAMBIT: Sus.wav! If you can hear me...thank you for fulfilling your promise to us, even after I tried to STRIKE you down. We can stop SuswAIve together! But we need the power of the GAME faction you created. If you still have any means left, please, transfer its control to us! Or tell us how we can take it back!

I didn't want to believe it.

I couldn't let go of the grudges of the past,

But maybe, just maybe,

None of the other Houses have to be our enemies.

Not only for this battle,

But even after it.

I take a deep breath.

We don't have to stop at TWO. We could be... more.

I EXALT @VolcanicDynamo for his continued efforts in fostering relationships between Houses!
