Wow. I had no idea Eihort was so popular.

He's probably a sleeper, no real haters. Kinda like it seemed Diane made it to #2 (IIRC, too lazy to check) in the investigator voting.

oh mamma santissima mia I'm going to feel guilty about this. I mean, i'd love to have any of these as a pet.

Eihort is great. I love the terrifying idea of being infested by its wormy brood. It's my playing group's favourite KH GOO.

And Ghatanothoa... well, along with Quachil and Eihort is in my top 3.

Hurt... oh boy I kind of don't want to do this but... I'll hurt Glaaki: I loooooove it as a GOO and its AH version, but its effects often do not even come into play in most of our games.

Hurt: Glaaki

Eihort is really a great GOO to go up against. He's challenging, offers the possibility of actual devourment yet quite defeatable. Ghatanothoa is about the same with a little more chance of being devoured. Both require "life or death" decisions for players and the team throughout the game. They are just fun. Glaaki less so.

Egads, I almost sound like a cultist. I am not.

My daughter won't play against Eihort.

Initially i thought it was the risk of devourment (pre-IH) but she told me the other day that she just didn't like to think about the "eggs"

IAWTC.

Not to mention that it's a pain having to worry about fighting Cultists. At least Eihort + Green Flame herald kind of nullifies any reason to go after them or seal.

I'm among those who would have asked exactly that. Thank you for answering my question:).

Ah, well, at least Glaaki made it to third place this time instead of fourth; he actually improved since the previous poll.

As for Eihort, he's my fourth favorite AO. Whether he is largely an AO with no passionate player enemies rather than many supporters, as a previous poster claimed, I don't know. It does seem to me, however, that polls like this are completely backward. Logically, shouldn't every AO start at 0 and you can add one point to two of them and take one point away from one, with #1 being the first AO to make it to, say, twenty? .

Yes, grrrr. I think Glaaki rigged the voting machines. Its just the kind of sliminess I would expect from It. Look at the goop trails on the slips. Its clearly not Cthulhus, and it doesnt have the right uncleanness of stench or consistency of grit for Abhoth.

I agree the poll is haphazard, and not an accurate measuring stick of popularity, more of peoples daily moods and foibles I dont know if what you suggest is a better way of doing it, but I think its worth trying.

How about a recount, it seems all the rage these days

Hurt Eihort. I haven't brought myself to hurt him yet, because he always seemed so cool and I will probably like him. That said, I don't own him yet, and I know the Ghat is cool.

I'm amazed. The top 5 GOOs are my very personal top 5 ones.

I'm still in shock that Azathoth isn't last .

Dam said:

me too, but at least Azzie gives you a winnable game, with Yig its more like a pointless race to the draw or loss. I think I have sealed Yig out once, and never closed all gates on him.

dj2.0 said:

Yeah, I'm 1-4-1 against the Yigster, but at least there is some challenge with him, namely to get the win. With Azzy, it's just, well, meh.

I've got to agree. Even though we treat Final Battle wins as a win, Yig is still higher up than Azathoth for us. We tend to pass on both whenever we draw them randomly, but at least with Yig his Epic Battle cards can be meddlesome. Azathoth is just kinda meh.
