The Vision wrote:Marrow has been very unhelpful. Reading thru the content takes about 3 minutes. And Marrow made a point a few times of staying clear of some eventual-civ lynches "I'm not touching THAT" etc. Baddies know who the civs are, so when someone is so defiantly against lynches that the rest of us felt were worth following, hindsight sometimes is telling.

But is that enough to warrant a lynch? It's Day 7, we've talked about so much... to now turn and lynch a quiet player seems weird, frankly. Is there a different quieter player whose got a better case to be made? I don't have time read back on Shaw or Deadpool, but I'm open to listening to cases there, and if we do go Marrow I'll support it, but I'd rather something a bit meatier.

Honestly, I went (wrongly) with my gut and threw my vote in the other direction of where my bleeding heart wasn't where it could actually count (towards T-bird. Yikes, that was a mouthful). At least for me, it wasn't part of any conspiracy that I was aware of. And trust me, I feel terrible about lynching one of my own RIP again Thunderbird

I'm not sure if I should retaliate and go the other direction and see if Quicksilver WAS the right way to go, but I think I'll wait til tomorrow when my head is clearer to vote. My gut doesn't do a very good job of finding scum so far...

I'm getting pretty suspicious of you, Phoenix.
This is becoming too repetitive to sound genuine. You keep mentioning how your gut was wrong (you do it multiple times in this post) and I remember you doing it in previous posts. I feel you're kind of excusing yourself when it isn't even necessary. To me, it comes across like you have a guilty conscience and know it is a matter time before someone calls you out so you want to defend yourself before people actually do. You also seem to be relying on emotions an awful lot, if it be not wanting to vote someone or reacting to someones death.

I quoted this particular post because I wanted to ask you about your last point there. Why exactly do you suspect that every player got a same gendered avatar?

You make some great points about the Quicksilver lynch. I hadn't thought about it in that way. You are right that it doesn't make sense for the baddies to save Quicksilver just so that he could be lynched the following day unless they thought that T-Bird wouldn't have otherwise been lynched next if QS had gone first. Baddies voting to save Quicksilver (if QS is civvie) would be a very risky move..I would say just as risky as voting to save a team mate Quicksilver. I can agree here that baddies voting to lynch T-Bird over QS only really adds up if QS is their team mate.

Also, I agree with the suspicion of Spiral. It had actually slipped my mind a bit with all the attention on Quicksilver, but Spiral's post responding to Hawkeye saying, "Why the hell are you discussing the secrets of a civilian role?" when Hawkeye was not doing anything that would put Storm in any danger came off as instigating and not from a civvie point of view. I think it's also telling that Spiral has not responded to Hawkeye's recent post.

Thanks for reading, Havok. Irealize I posted a bunch of stuff all at once, there. My suspicion that we're all the genders of our avatars is mostly just a hunch. The genders match for all the players who I feel confident I can identify. I believe a lot of the female-avatar players were saying earlier that they were actually females as well, though I'd have to look this up. I doubt it's material to the discussion anymore, just wanted to say it while it was on my mind.

The one thing that doesn't add up to me about QS being bad is this: If his teammates all voted Tbird to save him, why would his BTSC-invented (as many suspect, anyway) story make Tbird's voters look bad? It seems to me like he'd be throwing teammates under the bus, and right after they risked themselves to save him, too.

That's my only problem with this lynch right now. I'd think if QS and Tbird's voters were on a team, he'd be saying he thought they were mistaken civs. Maybe it's distancing, I don't know. Anyone have thoughts on how to make this fit?

I'm voting for Dharmahelp- I mean Avalanche.

I have a sneaking feeling that will end up being quite conformist.

I find this comparison quite racist.

It's not a comparison. It's a picture of Morlocks. It's not racist to show an accurate picture of a race.

SEBASTIAN SHAW MAY NOT BE A SOCK! He has posts in Harry Potter, Grimm's, and American Gods too!!!! Maybe others.

Also, he took my plan of voting first.

What the heck is going on here?

Well I know who I'm voting for today.

I like this guy. FWIW, if killing Morlocks is actually a thing, I'm in. They suck.
