Though it seems you may have figured it out anyway with the book.

people keep suggesting in threads which items might be celestial but we knew what we needed the whole time. We had gotten most of them in the start poll, and then we robbed BR (I think?) night 1 to get another.

OH! So, funny story here. I wanted the Celestials to steal the Ear Tubes that I stole from Liz Night 1. I figured I was going to be nightkilled very promptly for coming after Epig and getting him lynched, and I didn't want the Ear Tubes in baddie hands.

Unfortunately, I didn't know that I had stolen the Bottle from Epig's safe when I assumed Luke McKracken's role. It was unclear that Luke got to STEAL from the safe, it seemed like he just got to SEE what was in the Safe.

So when Llama told me my Bottle was stolen, I was like "What bottle??" Sorry if that was confusing, TH, I can't imagine what you guys must have thought I was trying to do.

Yea we were very confused about the bottle. I think we thought for a while that you were trying to let us know that you were the civvie item stealer and had taken that from Epi.

The bottle was mostly useless until we had the idea to curse one of us with it in case we were silenced. I think the baddies ended up killing TH instead of silencing him, but if they had stuck to their routine of killing the celestial that they silenced the previous day, it would have allowed TH to post still like SVS was doing with the double curse.

What did you guys think of SVS buddha story?

Damn Clark Street was a dud

BR we could give items to one another. So we kept giving them to someone who wasnt silenced. The night you killed TH we thought you for sure would continue with the pattern and kill SVS, so we gave them all to TH.

so yea, getting NK'd sucked. but TH getting NK'd was so much worse.

We so desperately wanted your role to target us. SVS spent a lot of the time asking for you to

Given that you knew who we all were, and we even tried to make a deal with you to tell you who we all were it would have been pretty easy for you to just NK one of us if the numbers tied up again, but

oh well

I had a blast and I am very happy with how things turned out.

Mafia: Outnumber Civilians and Celestials to Win

We needed you out just as much as we needed the civilians out. Your BTSC made you higher priority targets.

You needed ONE of us out to win. Not all 5.

yay civvies ^-^

I couldn't have thought up a better group of circus people if I tried.

hugs:

linki - I'm not sure why the celestials 'naturally' became your next target. We were doing more harm then good and you guys could have won with us. Had you stopped after killing Golden this would have been a very different game and you guys probably would have won.
I never had BR down as Oliver Oliver and til the end thought that role was alive so I don't think that was that obvious either.

No one will be receiving any items because I don't have any. I'm not the millionaire, I don't even know why Canuck thinks that.

Save me a seat at the bar Golden, Sophie and FS.

I think he did, yeah. But given Golden is dead now, this feels a bit too...convenient to me.

I'd really like to hear something convincing from the people who think SVS is civ/civ-friendly. Because I feel like I can only see one side of this and would like to be able to examine other perspectives.

I'll try and convince you later if I am still around.

Linky: and you did not defend Zomba.....we know, you could just not make up your mind....we know, ad nauseam.

this doesn't remind me of last game, but then I thought canuck was a bit more vocal then normal in RR. I can see her being burnt out from it, but I would have thought she would have picked up now.
I'm still worried about dfaraday. I know I was wrong about the sophie connection, but his defense of that was just blowing it off (sure, if he was bad he would know she wasn't and it would be ok for him in the end) but he hasn't really posted enough for it to move past a "feeling" for me.

I did not "lull" Golden into anything. You think I was working with Zomberella and then turned around and put the second vote on her? It would have made more sense for me to go along with Golden's "I think we can turn this lynch around" idea if that was the case. I don't buy into the whole "mafia could be throwing their teammates under the bus" theory, it has never made sense to me when it comes to an early vote. Later yes, I can see it, but in the first few votes almost a day before the lynch does not make any sense to me. Not unless they're the millionaire and even then that's pretty risky.

Wasn't fs the first vote for Epi?

I think I get what you're trying to hint at SVS but if that's the case why imply it was the item you had saving you rather than letting us think you were maybe Legga. Surely if that wasn't your role Legga wouldn't have minded people thinking it, until/unless someone tried to nightkill them. I've been baffled at the fact the mafia tried to kill you night 2 but then never pursued it again. The thing about Oliver Oliver is how does he know who he's talking to is telling him the truth?

I've been trying to get into Hedville but it's not letting me. I've been trying to find the Piano but it's not coming up in my searches. Did anyone ever play there? If so do you have a link? I know I stopped playing around 2009 or 10.

I'd like to put it out there my vote record is as such: I voted Zomberella Day 1. She wasn't the Millionaire so that would have pointless if I knew her role. bf/townie lynched.
Day 2, I missed the vote but I was pretty clear I wasn't on board with that MM lynch. MM /townie lynched
Day 3, I voted second for Zombarella (granted I was worried about myself) but she was lynched/mafia
Day 4, I thought that was a complete railroad of Sophie. I voted DP. He was n/k'ed so I assume he was townie but that was an odd kill. I wouldn't have been on board with it if I was mafia because he probably could have been easily lynched the next day.
Day 5, Voted 4th for Epi. It was a half-day until the vote-could have gone any which way. I posted my suspicion of him Day 2 and I never wavered from thinking he was probably mafia. Lynched/mafia.

I wasn't going to post that because I knew it would just be jumped on as WIFOM but I really got nothing much to lose at this point.

I did vote Epi first.

Thepiano is dead. Most of us played there, though I didn't in 2009. LC and a few others probably did.

Long Con wrote:I got nothing. Perhaps fingersplints got the safe WITH a few items in it?

Nope just the safe

Because that is clearly the same meaning. Voting for someone isn't the same as saying I would bet that someone isn't bad. Smashpoints. Money. shoes perhaps since Liz will be needing some to eat

Sophie said herself this was not her civvie game.

I would have liked to get the Strangler but I will take it

great result

You guys must hate my posts. I misuse all the words!

Lynching celestials is a terrible idea. Literally the only people who would benefit from that are baddies, who can't win with them if all 5 are alive. Because almost everyone was wrong doesn't mean they aren't trying to help the civvie cause.

There were 11 votes for Sophie - so it is even impossible for just mafia and neutrals to have voted her.

I can see this coming up in future games.
"SVS claims to hate self voting but she voted for herself on DAY 4 of HSK mafia"

Sophie. sorry, I was so sure this was your baddie game

Epi you are funny tonight

fingersplints wrote:Sorry thanks rabbit I get it now.

Thanks rabbit??

Yes. He underlined that part for me and it cleared things up nicely. I still am fairly confident you are bad, but at least I understand what part of Liz's post you were responding to.

good rabbit - I was getting worried when you said I thought I was bad. I figured you might be bad or not as smart as I give you credit for. The second one still might be true

Sophie - I also post from my phone a lot and have the same trouble cutting down posts. What works for me is to bold or underline the relevant parts. Both of those codes are short and easy for me to type in. Not sure this will help you but it might be something to keep in mind.

rabbit - how do you feel about me today?

Sorry thanks rabbit I get it now.

It has been speculated that the elephant charm is likely a celestial item, therefore makes a lot of sense for that group with an item stealer to want that item.

You guys chose to compare them, not me. I have read through all your posts and they are not all long posts. There was that off topic bit about music and lots of posts confused about what is going on or asking for help. So yes, you have a lot of posts, but they aren't all on topic or relevant.
DP is always quiet. This isn't out of the ordinary for him. You are only quiet and blendy like you have been here when you are bad.

For most players that wouldn't be indicative of everything. For Sophie, it is. If one person was saying this isn't her civvie game that is one thing, but almost everyone who knows her well has said this.

Nothing that has been said is going to change my mind at this point. I hope you all see what I am saying and know that there is no way I would act like this if I were bad.
I'm voting Sophie now

You did not call him a baddie before everyone. Several other people listed suspicion of him before you. I pulled several more quotes, but have deleted them since others can go back and read it. You subtly pushed the suspicion of him, and then when he had several votes, you placed another vote on him. That is why your vote is suspicious to me.
And it is the same as your vote on MM. little - no reason after he already had votes. That is jumping on a bandwagon.

Now you say "if" DP is bad... backtracking already?
Seriously though, what baddie in their right mind would defend a teammate like I have been doing? You're going to have to come up with a better pretend reason to suspect me then that.

This here post from LizKeen is the first post about DP and the elephant charm.

In fact Sophie's first mention of the charm is this, where she is commenting on someone else talking about it:

linki - you are using the same quote. IT is a flat out lie that you created the suspicion. Both the original post I quoted and this one were well after Liz started that suspicion.

1) Because of some item swapping that may or may not incriminate him due to lack of hard evidence.

I think FS is right on with Sophie, however. The fact that she jumps in and attaches herself to the DP bandwagon makes me feel even better about her lack of being involved.

Votes Sophie

Im not jumping on any bandwagon, i was the first to insist he might be bad for having the br item

This is just a flat out lie. This was your first mention of DP after others already discussed the elephant charm:

Sophie wrote:
fingersplints wrote:I forgot to say I'm also eyeing MM and bass because I'm a little confused about that situation. I doubt I would vote either.

My strongest suspect atm is Sophie. A civvie Sophie is generally much more vocal than this. also, I am a little suspicious of how she has twice now asked dfaraday for his opinion. just his. She claimed it was from knowing him from RM but there are several others she knows better or as well that she hasn't interacted with at all.

Linki alright rabbit I'm pretty sure you know I am not bad

I know i havent been contributing much, but its because i ve been very busy. Im sorry for not being a very contributibe civvie, but if you are looking for baddies you should look elsewhere.

My biggest suspects are epi and dp

how about this vote, Sophie?

Sophie wrote:voting MM

theres no freaking way i have time to catch up you people talk waaaaay waaaaay too much and im like 25 pages behind, so, yeah

from what i ve seen skimming the last few pages, he mightr be the baddie who gets more powerful the more votes he gets unless he gets lynched, and i see everyone went that way so i will

i have been in a trip on my familys home in other city and been crazy busy taking care of my 1 year old gorgeous sweet niece, barely being able to keeping up from long distance work (actually im behind), and trying to read all the pages i was behind when i started. i was 20 pages behind when i started, and, even though i read at nightime and got to page 12, you guys kept advancing at an insane speed rate and im way more behind now. i should be able to improve my speed and time of reading when i return to BA tomorrow, but since tomorrow i will be travelling by bus, and then in the uni, then thursday is the real day i may be able to keep up, or ill do my best to. for now this is all i can do.

Your reason for voting MM is "everyone went that way". Were you not jumping on a bandwagon there too?

SOPHIE REPLACED IN DAY 1 - how long will she be "catching up" for?

What pinged you in the first place?

I was originally pinged by her casually dropping dfaraday's name. Like I said there are loads of people she knows better, so it seemed suspicious to me she would be only curious about his opinions.
But then I evaluate her game and this level of inactivity and feigned confusion is without a doubt her baddie game.

Sophie wrote:You seemed too convinced, fs. Like you were in RR and were also wrong there.
Look, i ve subbed in in this game, and by the time i got here there were already 20 pages of very charged, heated day 1. While i was reading those 20 pages in the weekend i visited family, thread kept moving fast and got to be 40 pages long. So i was literally always behind. I have catch up but my head isnt completely in the game. I know i usually dont behave like this as a civ, but this time im one, i assure you. Real life and subbing in have been the reasons why i might not seem my civvie self, but be sure i am good.

Im gonna be voting dp today, i think he is bad

You are misrepresenting what happened in RR. Let me explain it to those that didn't play. That game was very different then this one, and at the time I was "sure" of you everyone else had been confirmed to me. (I was the detective) You hinted that you had a very important civvie role and also made it sound like you had info, so I thought you were claiming my role (which had already happened once that game so aggravated me) You were the civvie ninja, and that role usually just has a kill, no check, so I didn't see how you could be the ninja and claim to know what you claim. I was sure of you for about 4 hours til I calmed down that game and saw things more clearly.

I have already explained it. Perhaps you can tell me which part you don't get and that will help me know what you would like explained more.
