I was not certain enough about SE to say more. Just wanted to see what you said. But I blocked him to test my theory and see if anyone was not killed or insanified. I always suspected Boogs since his urge to lynch me. It wasn't just a proposal it was a let's-lynch snowdog-next. So I blocked him. And Herobrine failed in his attack. Which is why I needed to know if you had protected the survivor. I had to be clear what my block had done.MovingPictures07 wrote:No problem, man. You have a pretty good style, and I admire your balls to the wall approach, and I think it makes games more interesting (props to llama for this as well). I can appreciate that especially because I try to do the same, especially because sometimes it isn't the "best" approach and can get you eyed regardless of your alignment. I guess the best advice is if you want to continue that approach to just try and think things through as much as possible, and this is certainly advice that I need to take from myself as well, as I can sometimes go for the long haul on a theory and stick with it. It's hard because especially early in the game and as a civvie, all you have to go off of is what's already in the thread, so you could be totally wrong, but at the same time if your gut is screaming big time you really feel confident about it, despite the fact that you could be off the mark.Snow Dog wrote:Thanks Kate and Alex. I am looking forward to more games and maybe settle on a style of play that sits better. Don't want to be too readable though.
All of that being said, I think you, llama, and I are the Three Amigos of Extraordinarily Unnecessary Participation (TAEUP) or something like that. I'll think of a better name, hopefully. Open to suggestions. Lol.
You did have a good track record. Rey played a really sneaky and very good game here, definitely. I had a hard time reading him this time around.Snow Dog wrote:btw. All the people I suspected turned out bad. Except Roxy but I quickly backpeddled on her. Unfortunately on rey too. He was sneaky.
What made you block SE? Oh, and I do have a bit of advice from you on handling this one. When you did ask for my opinion about SE, and I gave you my read (that he was leaning civvie for me or didn't seem suspicious), why didn't you respond back to me saying you may really think there's a chance he's baddie, or anything like that? You were the blocker and you obviously blocked him on Night 2. The day that you went down, if you had responded back to me or anyone else, or even if you had initiated a discussion of, hey guys, I think SE might be baddie, then that might have helped your cause more and it might have helped us get rid of Hero earlier. At the absolute worst case scenario, it would have made SE arguing that he was civvie after your lynching even harder because you seemed so confident. But you did ask me about him a few times, so I realize you did try something like that.
There is a fine line between outing someone based on your power knowledge (don't do that) and trying to help the cause with what you know. I do think if you had argued SE a little more strongly after you blocked him that we could have been onto something.
Though, all of that being said, I now realize that you might have been unsure since I was protecting people. I really could have used you in that discussion with Ambray and llama, trying to figure out all the night actions. After that discussion was over, I did have a sneaking suspicion that Ambray survived because you blocked SE, but I didn't trust my gut evaluation there. Pity.
So I knew Boogs wasn't Herobrine form that moment because he simply couldn't be if it was you who did the protection.
