You too!

Any thoughts on Bass' question; do you see and benefits or drawbacks to sharing info about our roles etc?

I think prefer not to, especially this early without having discussed it. But I do know that discussing things like this is something LC likes to do himself when he plays, so I am open to sharing if people present good reasons for it.

Given that I absolutely 100% do not want to lynch any holy elements, I differ slightly.
But I don't care about any of the other elements, so

. We can let random chance handle it.

Glorfindel is my top candidate for being holy cuz he's so nice. Maybe BassTheClever. They are lookin' pristine, ifn I do say so myself, and I jus' did.

Vote SVS

Srs bsns reason or goofy reason?

I don't see any reasons, goofy or not.

Also, we get notified when quoted now, which is pretty sweet.

I'm waiting to be reminded by the hosts about the three elements I chose and I won't mind sharing a little bit at that time. There is one element that when combined with mine will be bad (just for that element and I). Other than that I'm going to hold off on sharing.

Ooh, I didn't et any bad ones. That's interesting.

There aren't enough elements for players, btw. There could be more than one darkness player.

Riding the tide of sorsha's thing, I'll give an opposite thing: Good things happen if I find a holy element. For both of us.

@LC and BR: Are element combinings reversible? Is fire+darkness the same as darkness+fire?

Can I trust you?

Until the end, yeah. Assuming we ally and all that.

Honesty is the best policy, in my opinion. Why, in Survivor Mafia, I was killed for being too honest about my intentions. I never betrayed anybody.
If I say I'm gonna align, I mean it.

I ask nothing from you G other than the respect and genuine affection that I shall show you. Beyond that, you should do whatever you need to win this game and I'll not hold that against you. I believe that you have all the qualities necessary to excel in this game and wish you only the very best of luck, my friend

You have the holy element, don't you? Admit it! You're boing too nice to everyone not to be holy!

I have voted No Lynch as well. For now. Unless someone has an issue with that, in which case I will gladly vote for them.

I'm itching to get some night results.

Ninja'd:
Sounds good, Eloh.

I just didn't like how glorf's could reject G so sweetly. It was weird for me. G...you are welcome to join chuck and I if you want.

I feel like every post I've seen glorfindel make has been just super nice, even when not in this game. I'm currently on no-lynch, but I don't mind switching over.
LMS games are so weird.
If G-Man switches, I'll hop over and seal the deal. Good?

So... every post Glorfindel makes seems super nice to you, so you are going to "seal the deal" on lynching him for doing something he always does? Am I understanding this correctly?

LMS.

If I was going to lynch him for being nice, I'd already have my vote on him. As it is, I'm not in an alliance with Glorfindel, so I could go either way. Such is the weirdness of LMS.

Basically, Eloh, I'm willing to vote along with you. At the moment, though, I doubt it's in our best interests, or to the health of the game.

No lynch will at least give everyone a chance to use their element. I hope I hit holy.

It might be.

Good idea, but it's more fun to vote out the new people first.

I think you're kidding here. But I'm not laughing.

Yeah, I think it'd just be nice for everyone to have a night to use their element. That's why I'm where I am. Nothing to do with my role.

I don't think each element has a reason to lynch or no-lynch. We all only know a third of our role or so, based on the connections we asked for.

What's with this? Are we to assume that Speed is now Holy Speed? Is he gonna start hugging people to free them of their pain?

I think assigning any "good" or "bad" value to a specific element, before we know how they work in regards to NK's and the like is a bit silly.

Who are we to say that holiness is an inherently benevolent quality in this game? At the end of the day, every single one of us needs every single other person gone, so any special roles that are both not mine, and also not belonging to someone who is aligned with me, I can only interpret as threats.

Yo. My role do good with holy. Holies should visit me. Is best effect.

Edit: @Glorfinder - Depends on if you want us to see your questions

Once tomorrow comes, and things happen, everything will be clearer regarding who to kill. I think.

G-Man wrote: ↑Tue May 23, 2017 11:10 am Good morning. Here's the full player list with ISO links. I'll catch up at lunch and probably vote then. Busy night tonight.

Unless you can compel a majority to move from No Lynch, it's probably a waste of time to vote. But you do you.

I'm going SIG. Gonna make this interesting.

S~V~S wrote: ↑Tue May 23, 2017 3:56 pm I am beginning to think sig joins these LMS games just to be a willing catatonic day one sacrifice.

Really, I kinda feel bad killing Sig D1. He seems to die early everywhere. But he who doesn't speaks, doesn't eats.

DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Tue May 23, 2017 2:32 pm A vote for sig wouldn't bother me, if he ended up getting enough votes. But I'm not moving my vote onto him just yet. It would be a miscalculation to make an enemy so soon without assuring he'd be lynched.

DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Tue May 23, 2017 4:21 pm I didn't want to lynch anyone today but everyone else is a bully and made me.

I don't think that is how it went

Watch out, guys. Quin is going for the power of friendship angle. He wants us to like him too much to kill him.

Ninjaedit: Eloh, you might want to kill your autocorrect.

Elohcin wrote: ↑Tue May 23, 2017 5:18 pm I'd speak against no lunch too fwiw. I love food.

Is there really a way to get rid of autocorrect?

IDK. I don't own a smartphone. I use PC, amd ther ia no autocorect.

It worked last time.

Did it? I don't suppose idols had anything to do with it.

...

Eh, I ain't even. Good luck, friend.

I'm doing pretty good. Looks like tonight is going to be an info-gathering night.

sprityo wrote: ↑Wed May 24, 2017 9:13 am Have you already gathered some information, speedchuck?

Currently waiting for some role info, and I also somehow got a chatzy? No idea why.
I'll be keeping quiet on the role info unless it becomes advantageous for everyone if I out one of the people I have info on.

Of course, all of us are getting a little bit of info: The role we targeted.

Edit: Alright, I have all my info. Now I can chatzy when I get home.

DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Wed May 24, 2017 10:44 am sure just rub the fact that you got BTSC in everyone's face that'll end well.

Honestly, it kinda sucks. I can't Chatzy at work, only Quicktopic. As other people will agree, if they did survivor with me, I am like the worst candidate for BTSC.

sprityo wrote: ↑Wed May 24, 2017 12:20 pm If I had to guess how you got BTSC, is that you are psionic and picked the other psionic

I can confirm that this didn't happen.

DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Wed May 24, 2017 12:34 pm I will probably vote for the last person to check in tonight.

Everyone hasn't checked in?

then what would make sense to get BTSC?

PSI and... spirit? IDK, and I don't want to narrow myself down just yet. It wasn't my action that gave me chat. I targeted earth.

Golden wrote: ↑Wed May 24, 2017 6:04 pm I don't intend to say who I mixed with etc in general or what the effects were. I'm concerned the information could be used against me long term. What I will say is that I am targeting people with whom I'd like to have btsc, just in case any reaction might create that.

Be careful about fire/water-like reactions.

It's like, "I want BTSC with you!" *kills person*

nutella wrote: ↑Thu May 25, 2017 12:28 am Re: speedchuck's btsc situation and the ensuing theories: I would believe that the person who targeted him is Psionic. He seemed to imply that he's not psionic, but I don't necessarily think he implied that he's not the same element as that person, because how would he even know that -- presumably he doesn't know the element of the person who targeted him, he was just given the btsc link -- so Golden's hunch could be true if they're both something other than Psionic. But I think it's more likely that the targeter was Psionic, partially because I know that when my element pairs with Psionic I gain a message sending ability so it would make sense for another Psionic combination to create btsc.
Would you get a message sending ability to anyone you want, or would the message go to the Psionic player?

speedchuck: do you have BTSC with a random player, or is it with the player responsible for giving you BTSC?

According to the player, they got the ability from targeting, then decided to target me for whatever reason. My ability from last night was similar to that. I also targeted a player, got an ability, then targeted others.
We had a good little chat (and by little, I do mean LITTLE. I wasn't even around at the same time as them, thanks to my workplace blocking chatzy.)
We have 1 of either 100 or 55 (depending on whether x+y = y+x) combinations that could have caused it, and I'm not certain my own element was involved.

I can do no lynch as one of my votes, for personal reasons. There are a number of people I don't want dead, and this improves my odds of dealing with that.

Quin needs to put down a third vote.

Sprit, you're reeking of suspicion a little bit here.
Quin: "I am cursed." *votes for sprityo*
Sprityo: "How dare he accuse me? I didn't curse him!" *votes quin*

Methinks you protest too much. We don't know what Quin's curse really is, if it's making him vote differently. He may have no idea who cursed him, and he's voting you for other reasons.
Your jump in logic makes me suspicious, almost as if you know more of what's going on with the curse than we do. And I'm not a fan of curses.

sprityo wrote: ↑Thu May 25, 2017 11:16 am In which case, I will move off you quin. Maybe I can get revenge on Speedchuck from Credithunt now since he wants to throw shade at me.

That's a long time to hold a grudge, mate. We were even scum together since then, in CYOMRCGTG Mafia!

Darn. It appears all the best Golden votes have been taken.

True, true.

You can always make your own, though.

I think I will. Eh, it looks alright. Not quite as nice as the first two, though. Hrm.

DrWilgy wrote: ↑Thu May 25, 2017 12:30 pm That would only be confirmed once she dies, but as I said, I will not be killing friends that chose a color.

Right Speedchuck *cough* doo doo doo *cough*

I'm pretty dense. Are you asking me not to kill you here, or being like yo speedchuck, you shouldn't be trying to kill some other color person? Genuine question.
I can only get so much out of coughing and doodoo.

Edit by way of post:

I really thought I had voted for Golden, as seen in my above post. Nevermind my density. I'm not dense, just... stupid.

We have to make three votes today. As I see it, No Lynch means I only have to make 2 enemies rather than 3.

I'd feel bad about killing Quin if he really is cursed. Any better options?

Golden, what's your beef with Quin and Sorsh?

Who says I don't like you? My list and who I like are more of an overlapping Venn diagram than an exclusive group.
Well that's mighty kind of you and great to know.

I can't help but notice the overwhelming number of people who specifically don't want to lynch you or can be easily convinced to stop voting for you.

What power did you get last night? Hypnosis?

It's not like we had any reason TO vote for him. You know, aside from "Waaah, he betrayed me in Survivor!"

Does that include not taking a vote off of quin, which would put her in the lead? AKA Manslaughter?

I'm trying to save quin for whatever reason, and I'm looking for conditions to satisfy that.

I was intending to, but I did a deal with Daisy and Wilgy with the goal of saving myself. I'll move it if the three of us agree to go somewhere else. Quin isn't my first choice, but I'll vote him if I have to to stay alive.

What do you three think? I'll follow.

Edit before posting: Come along, DH. Come along.

There are ten players that are on my "DO NOT KILL" list for today.

Nutella is not on my list of ten. That is all.

Is it really a good idea to give my list of ten? :P People may take it more as a list of 7, if you catch my meaning.

DharmaHelper wrote: ↑Thu May 25, 2017 3:51 pm Looks like Bass has 3 votes.

Oh right. This might change a lot of things. I had forgotten.

No overlap between the Tranq voters and the JoH/Sorsha voters. I found that interesting.
