I suppose that's the downside to pulling off amazing baddie games/gambits. But... still totally worth it.
I've never really pulled off any amazing baddie games/gambits, but I still get lynched early every game.

I know that feel

Russtifinko wrote: One thing I always wondered was, why didn't you guys post your level choices in thread? I know it happened a little at the beginning, but it had mostly fizzled by the time I subbed in. If I had been civ, I would have spent the whole game arguing for that. Then if you picked a level someone you suspected had said they also picked and it turned out to be the right one, you'd have proof they were bad, right? At the beginning I thought we might be destroyed by that alone.

I think the main problem is that you have to assume people are telling the truth. It doesn't seem like there is much of an advantage in telling the truth when it's impossible to tell when someone lies.

Me too, I don't think I've ever been so consistently wrong.

Now that the game is over, I think I may have used my rezz too early when I used it on Rob, but I have had a habit of dying early lately and wanted to make sure it was used on someone i thought was a civ.

Lizzy wrote:Also, thank you to all who died in an attempt to save me. I'm deeply touched.

I guess I didn't mind dying then.

thellama73 wrote:Thank god that's finally over with.
I can't help but think we would have done better if you guys had listened to my vote spreading idea instead of just killing me.

I would've endorsed it but I get killed early in the game too often.

Congrats to the baddies, I had been waiting for them to win for a few weeks now. :P

And I used to watch the shit out of some My Little Pony back in the 80s.

I assume you watched G1?

The structure of this game is fundamentally incompatible with the concept of a lynch switch.

Although I really want the baddies to win this because they've been brilliant (oh btw, sorry), I'd feel bad if Matt gets lynched.

If I am wrong about him too, I'll stop playing altogether for a loooong long time.

Oi Devin!

At this point it would be easy for them to kill me, if they all voted for me I'd probably die. I don't think the game will last much longer.

Well, we do have a pretty similar voting record which means we were both carp and deserve to die.

ture

All I've learned so far is that I'm bad at guessing.

Voting a tad early -- do you feel that strongly about INH?

No, but I feel strongly that I won't be around tomorrow.

i'd not mind a bondage gril

voted inh

aww, wrong again

You know, convince me you aren't whirly squirrely.

I don't have any more evidence that proves me to be a civ than anyone else does.

My take?

Vompatti wrote:Would you believe me if I told you that I would argue that the game has more to do with luck than skill because you have to time the jumps more accurately than humanly possible, .qm.

from what i've read the main complaint is that the controls are 'sloppy' in comparison to similar games.

Russtifinko wrote:Perhaps A Person, Vomps, and Mata could be so kind as to tell me why I shouldn't vote them?

Because it's a waste not using it to take a baddie's life.

I vote hedgeowl because i haven't got a reason not to.

Because I've been suspicious of her lately and have no other suspicions (and i'd rather not be punished for not voting again)

I am going to vote Hedge today.

You can have some of my birthdays, mongoose.

MovingPictures07 wrote:Oh nevermind, I did know that! It's the same day as Droopy's too, if I remember correctly! I just forgot you guys actually had the same day, that's right.

August birthdays ftw!

The 20th of August must be a busy birthin' day.

I think it's easy to get AP and Vomps mixed up since they have such similar playstyles.
I'm not entirely unconvinced they're not the same person.

We have the same birthday even :3

I read it but I disagreed with it, after having every suspicion of mine proven wrong I am completely lost, we've not gained any information apart from the fact that the people who've died so far are civs, which is not nearly as helpful as lynching a baddie.

It is much harder to vote at the last minute when the poll ends so early in the day, but i don't have anyone I wanted to vote for anyway.

thellama73 wrote:Well, as for me, I still am wary of HedgeBaddie and INH, but Hedge's vote analysis was extremely helpful so she gets a pass from me today. I also note that a lot of people have taken no votes and that worries me. If the civvies have all been wearing each other down while the baddies have quietly been taking no votes, it's going to be very hard to kill them, so I am going to throw my vote to Matahari today just to get her in the game.

I agree that this could be an issue, we may be getting close to a point where the remaining civs no longer have the numbers to kill baddies.

The quicker we vote, the less work MP has to do

2+2=5

Wouldn't it be weird, though, if I brought it up to see who'd react to it and how?
Less weird than the theory I had where you had worded it poorly, despite being an English teacher.
How so?

I assumed #3 was you saying that we shouldn't excuse replacements, it seemed more logical than just lynching them because they're replacements.

Mongoose wrote:Hurry and vote, guys! Only 10 mins left!

I think we have another hour.

I voted boomslang, I think the hypothesis that baddies have less lives than goodies is logical, so hopefully it will be a deciding factor in what happens next.

Lizzy wrote:Matt, you're a woman???? All these years were a lie then?

I'm sorry that I've had to lie for so long. Can you ever forgive me?

Elohcin wrote:I don't have much to add to what has already been said. However, I want to bring up...

1. Dr Fetus was inactive (for whatever reason) for two nights.
2. Mongoose replaced an inactive player.
3. Dr Fetus hid again and as not found.

This doesn't automatically mean Mongoose is Dr. Fetus, but it could. Any thoughts?

Either she is hoping that people would think that she'd purposely wait and not suspect her or someone else knows that she would be suspected if they hid right after she joined.

Russtifinko wrote:A Person: you had NO SUSPICIONS at all? After 5 DAYS?!? And then followed VOMPS' VOTE?

I have suspicions, I just am at a loss as far as who to vote for.

Vompatti wrote:I voted *Mister Rearranger* for no apparent reason.

Good point, I think I'll vote for him too.

Russtifinko wrote:A Person, MR just mentioned that you missed the Day 4 poll. Anything to say about that, or about your suspicions for today?

I already commented on why i missed the poll, due to the wind we briefly lost power about 10 times that night, I completely forgot to vote. I don't have any real suspicions today.

Lizzy wrote:

Agreed.

If Doctor Fetus is truly inactive it could be because he didn't select someone, couldn't it?

I agree, the final showdown is the only point in the game he is able to be killed, it would make sense to keep the searching going on as long as possible imo. But on the other hand if mongoose is the doctor, she may decide not to hide so that she's less suspicious (but that also allows for the real doctor to frame her if he's lucky).

Hi mongoose

I missed the vote on account of forgetting about it because of the power going out every few minutes. No idea who I'd've voted for anyway.

Also also: Nev's seemingly rushed post after Lizzy called MR out is highly suspicious as well. I think she has covered this before but I feel that if it was a genuine coincidence MR/Nev would've given a more sincere answer by now. I think it is at least more worth looking into than level choices.

Nevinera wrote:Really it's more that what you're saying is largely game-focused, and not *zany* - I haven't noticed you making particularly less sense than anyone else, but everyone's just grasping at straws with which to kill camels and build men anyway.

Thanks for the credit, if that's what you meant :-)
If it helps any, I can promise not to night kill you for the rest of the game?

If I responded to something of yours quickly, then that was just luck. I've been checking in 1-2 times per day, reading through the thread as fast as possible, and commenting only really in response to direct queries or votes.

This seems like a very evasive response to me, you are essentially asking her to ignore your posts/actions because "everyone else is just guessing anyway". You could just be a civ who is only playing with the most minimal amount of attention possible but this post feels too backpedaly to me.

also: vomp's playing style this game seems strange even for him, he's being far too quiet for my liking.

I'm not sure why people are discussing llama's plan as if he legitimately thought it was something we should do.

Time is the biggest challenge for the civs I can think of. The baddies apparently can kill every night, but we can't be certain that someone will die even if we all vote for them. One wrong guess could result in 3 or more dead civs.
