Dom wrote: ↑Wed Jul 26, 2017 9:06 pm Right. But if MArcus is dead, then the politicians should be killing every night and Strex shouldn't have killed the other day.

I noted that Boomslang never responded to my coutner claim to his framing.

Okay. It seems that Eloh was Cecil and there were arguments that timmer was her teammate. Is that what you're basing the elimination of Strex off of?

linki: Why?
linkix2: I agree.

I'm confusing myself Dom, don't even worry.

I won't vote now, since I'll be here at EoD. I'll try and make sure there's a tie at the end.

well i nearly missed this lmao hi

im around.

Dom wrote: ↑Wed Jul 26, 2017 11:50 pmno sign of rob

Will you vote to tie it up if Epi doesn't?

Aside from us, it's just Epi who hasn't voted. If only one of us votes we still half-succeed in this, there's just the possibility that whichever of us doesn't vote and Epi could be Marcus.

linki: You'll have to explain why that is because I can't recall, but cool

Dom wrote: ↑Wed Jul 26, 2017 11:54 pm Oh because Marcus was probably invovled in eloh's lynch and you weren't in the game yet, right?
I had a reason. Can't remember.

I still struggle to understand the Eloh lynch myself because my theory was disproven. Marcus on his own doesn't account for it. Secrets had to be involved there.

Dom wrote: ↑Thu Jul 27, 2017 12:00 am I suspect Marcus was involved though.

Were you in the game then?

No, I subbed in that night.

Cool beans.

well there you go

I figured he was faking a silence today with the guise that he wasn't actually silenced yesterday. Was gonna see where he went with that.

On another note, we'll find out if Eloh was Kevin tonight.

I could see it either way. We'll know for sure tonight though.

Golden's the only one I played with, and I town read him. He's also unlikely to be a politician given his vote forcing argument, if that holds water. I'll probably vote there.

Dom wrote: ↑Thu Jul 27, 2017 12:26 am the politicians killed him.

lol that too

let's all dance until the sun rises

I'm not cursed y'all. May as well let that be known. If nobody is cursed that could mean TSP was the Old Hag.

Golden wrote: ↑Sat Jul 29, 2017 1:08 am So, here's my starting point before doing any work.

Does anyone have any reason to believe that Tony knew about the various curses? I've lost that list.

Sprityo had reason to kill me. I was after him as politician in a big way towards the end.

I had begun to link speedchuck to elo, but obviously that's bunk now. Speed has felt town all game, but I need to have a good look to see if there's any reason he can be ruled out.

Insertnamehere has felt very genuine to me this game. One of the most genuine aspects of his case was his plea for why he was not Elo's teammate. Epi ignored it at the time, well now we know why, but it still felt genuine to me. It did not feel like someone who was using a piece of common wisdom he knew was false to his advantage. It's still worth revisiting though.

Ricochet never really felt like a politician. The curses on him felt unlikely and most of his existing effort felt like he was trying to catch the politicians. He knows about the curses and can't be entirely ruled out, but he seems unlikely.

Dom feels town through and through, but I really need to look back again to his overall interactions. I'm not sure it's impossible for him to be politician.

Doc is town. Boom just gave us every reason to not see him as politician. Quin used to be Neverwhere - if Tony didn't know about the curses, Neverwhere certainly didn't, and Timmer wasn't around... well, then, Quin is lock cleared.

I sub in and everybody's so gung-ho to town clear me. Gee whiz.

He died after he had the chance to use an action.

Yeah, but I don't want to assume that his role would go through if he died the same night.

I'm not as convinced as you are.
I didn't see a curse yesterday... and quin looks cursed today? Maybe wilgy?

I'm not cursed. Might be Wilgy with his NSFW talk.

sprityo wrote: ↑Sat Jul 29, 2017 1:20 pm I look forward to Golden's analysis of Speedchuck and INH

Particularly Speedchuck since I can't shake some gut feeling that he's been off this game.

And if you're all dead set on lynching me I highly encourage also looking elsewhere since we have 48 hours to discuss

Is anyone dead set on lynching you?

We're looking at 5:2:1, so we don't have much wiggle room. If miraculously all three politicians are alive and not using their roles then that's even more so, though I think that's very unlikely.

I'll spend some time reading timmer's posts for teammate interactions I think.

Dom wrote: ↑Sat Jul 29, 2017 6:44 pm No one hsould be lynching sprityo because sprityo didn't curse anyone.

Keep in mind, we're looking for the No Faced Woman. That ain't sprit.

Speedchuck is my best guess at the last pol.

Ricochet-- I apologize for forgetting your curse that barely impeded your communication because you have all but made communication impossible in this game.

Why do you think sprityo didn't curse anyone? Does it look like anyone is cursed today?

Dom wrote: ↑Sat Jul 29, 2017 6:45 pm The poll ends tomorrow right?

Yeah.

immediate thoughts after reading the first half of timmers posts

> you could fit a mattress out of all that fluff

timmer has a lack of associations with living people, which makes getting anything out of his posts difficult. Dom's the only one that I could see. He tries to set-up Dom as a LC teammate but never pushes it beyond that one post even though he intends to follow up with quotes. Also doesn't plan on voting for him while he's insanified.

I'm not sure whether people treat curses the same way as they do silences when it comes to lynching, but it caught my attention. I might want to scrutinise Dom a little more than I have been.

Dom, were you ever in any real danger of being lynched on Day 3?

Wilgy does seem cursed, yeah. We're in Futurama territory now.

Rather than hunting based on who played what games, I think a better way to go about it would be to list names that I think would go to an effort to look through old games to come up with curse shticks.

Boomslang and sprityo don't really come across as the type that would fit the bill for that. Boomslang is a less-present player by nature and sprityo works a lot. Everyone else I could see an argument for.

Dom did not curse himself with a Trump curse.
Zero percent chance.
Dom did NOT go through old games for curses
Zero percent chance.

My curses are usually less funny.

Boom- doesn't appear to be putting that amount of time into the game
Dom - no
wilgy - yes he would but he is civ
inh- yes
quin - curses happened when neverwhere wasn't around
ricochet - yes, but i am leaning he is civ
speedchuck - i don't know him well
sprityo - i don't know him well enough to say either way, but he isn't bad.

Thanks. I figured the best way to tell timmer's motive was looking at voting context. I'll probably go back and confirm at some point but I don't think you're timmer's teammate.

INH, Rico and speedchuck are my Old Hag shortlist. I haven't read Golden's INH ISO yet, so I'm not clearing him. I have very little motivation to even bother with Ricochet.

It depends on whether you think TSP was trying to claim The Tan Jacket before he died.

I didn't like speedchuck's vote when Jack was lynched. I don't remember everything I thought but I wasn't impressed with the fact that he sidelined his vote justified by a lack of a Boomslang case either way during such a tense EoD.

speedchuck wrote: ↑Mon Jul 24, 2017 9:34 pm Much rather would have Rico die than INH

also speedchuck:

Golden wrote: ↑Sun Jul 30, 2017 3:48 am In the heart of hearts, here is my ranking, from most likely to least likely to be politician:

Speedchuck
Dom
Ricochet
INH
Sprityo

All five of these people could be. I'm leaving out Wilgy, Quin and Boomslang who I simply don't believe can be at all. I'll also note that I have each of Dom, Rico and Sprit penciled in to specific roles, but not speedchuck or INH.
Why'd I make timmer the center of discussion, if I'm a politician?
Why would I undermine the strategy of my teammate?

Because he wasn't here. timmer's absence doesn't necessary have to be a strategy.

I'll vote speedchuck if everyone actually wants to end day early.

Dom wrote: ↑Sun Jul 30, 2017 7:43 pm quin
what's on your mind?

I support a speedchuck lynch. I don't have much of anything to say until we get some more information out of that.

I voted.

woohoo!

So what happened to the Tan Jacket?

I'm really proud of the overall performance in this game, actually. We all went to tinfoilville with the Cecil flip and it worked out, and we co-operated like a well-oiled machine for the most part. That's how you get an overwhelming town victory, y'all.

lol rico @ inh being btsc partners, not sure why i didn't click on that within 30 seconds of reading their argument

we were potential partners.

neither of us thought that the other was a civilian, unfortunately.

I figured you found each other but were arguing to distance. It's something I might do

What was your win-con? I know nothing about the NV lore.

I didn't even get to die.

@Quin - you didn't even get to be suspected let alone death.

You were all so eager to town-clear me. I got to put my feet up this game.

I feel like Dom more or less kept town together since I subbed in. This might have gone a lot differently if he'd died somewhere along the track.

I am suspicious of you in the post-game if that makes you feel better.

*Secrets*
Uses a different head each night. Each power can be used only once. Hiram becomes vanilla after all powers are used.
Gold Head - lynch switch (me and Eloh)
Green Head - add +1 vote (Epi some night)
Purple Head - Can anonymously message Cecil one night. (First night)
Blue Head - Dead role check (dfaraday)
Gray Head - Silence a player (used on Epi)

So Epi faked a silence then actually was silenced?

I feel the same, actually. I tend to try and throw myself into a game and 'spearhead' things and I often just make a mess of everything. I took more of a backseat here and things went well for me. I don't think I've really been able to figure out how I should best approach the games I play.

i usually get nk'd as a civ long before i get to do anything productive

or i'm wrong about everything and it doesn't matter

I'll never NK you Dom. Why would I when I can make you look hella bad?
