Non-players please move your votes off of bea thx

But but but...it's still day.....

Maybe my hubby is right about you.

This is prolly a stupid question, but I'm sometimes a dumb - Do you think it's possible that a civ JJ could have not left a legacy post and knew he was going to survivie as well? Or is your mind made up that it shook down the way it did for baddie reasons?

Obviously based on DH's post directly after yours I posted, he feels the second is true.

My vote last day was pretty much Day 1 gun to head vote for me. I know I'm missing lots of pieces and just want to make sure we're thinking everything through.

Yes, I was cursed in Flash Mafia, and it carried over from Day 4.1 to Day 4.2.

Are you ok, marmot? You seem to have a massive gash on your head...

Yes, I believe I'm still Sane.

Like Aladin. NIce btw.

So no one died. Cool. Tbh, I'm happy for the extra time.

going with JJ. Mac makes a good point about how JJ has handled heat in the past vs his reaction to mac this cycle. And also, DH makes sense to me.

I'm now late for work.

sorsha - I'm playing catch up - could you explain why you are suspicious of lorab please?

as for llama - jjj asked and I tend to associate civ llama as death note llama as it was the most recently impactful time he was a civ for me. I agree with your read of the thing between him and golden as feeling genuine on both ends.

Of course, read svs as genuine when she was after golden in recruitment as well and I was wrong about that making svs civ. Still they both read like they are not manufacturing their argument and legitly believe that they are correct in what, to me, has mostly become a pedantic argument.

jjj - you asked about JC's game play earlier. I tend to assocciate her with someone who tries very hard to look at every side of an argument and give every player every chance to defend as possible. I agree with epi that it's not usually JC's style to ISO a player and play that sort of game. If she is doing it to prove something to mac, well, I don't know. I could see it. What I think of as typical JC can often be seen as waffly. I can relate to that as I try to see all sides as well.

I thought your iso on boom was good, but I'm troubled by the ease in which people are ok with it. His curse also puts a wrench into my following along this train of thought atm.

Quiet tranq always makes me edgy, but I think that's more because tranq than quiet. Like LC, he is one I like to keep one eye on all the time and never really 100 percent trust. Even if we are civs. Even in civ bts.

Speaking of LC, he makes some interesting points and I've agreed with some of them. His inter actions with Golden felt particularly good to me. That said, LC.

Oh - lorab. I can confirm that she does buddy to people she percieves as civs when she's bad. She managed to fool LC through most of that game. Then he figured it out and our baddie victory was tossed squarely into his baddie teams hand. I don't have a lot to go on in developing a read on lorab atm. I have not done any back reading so my impressions are pretty much based on this last phase alone. I would need a lot more time with her.

omg! That was a lot of pages to cram into 3 hours reading.

I find myself agreeing a lot with both FZ and DH. I like the read of both of their posts and even the discussion of their disagreeing view points left me feeling better about both of them.

DH - the only thing holding me back with being right with you regarding BR is that it was said she has voted for LR two days in a row. I have to get ready and haven't checked it to verify for sure, but if true, I would say she has put her money where her mouth is with her vote. BR did something similar when I hosted her in Dr Who. No one was really listening to her so she just kept voting her suspicion till it gained traction. BR was civ in Who btw.

I get that is a little different from what you are saying. But it's the hang up I have with regards to thinking BR is bad at this moment.

I do think there is something with your point on Sorsha. I'd like to look at that more indepth when I'm not time pressed to vote and get ready for work.

I"m just going to split my posts based on topics because that seems the easiest to both compose and have to suffer reading.

I was looking forward to catching up on 58 pages of thread (really - I'm on page 3.)

And then of course, because i'm never allowed to be happy, so major shit just went down in my store. I'm srrsly crying right now because I lost my two most trusted employees. One of them admited to me, "they were so convinced that they were right and they kept threatening to call the police I just said yes to save my family the hurt."

I lost two of my brothers tonight. I should be happy to play with all of you scandalous bastards again. And I am. But in 48 hours I lost Bowie and my left and right arm of my store.

I'd srrsly appriciate serveral sumarries of the thread right now. As it is, I'll now hit the host posts and go from there unless anyone can point me to something specific that I should look at.

I'm really fucking broken right now.

So sorry to hear that Bea.

Thanks. It really sucks to hear both of them tell me they are "suspended." I've been around the block well enough to know what "suspended" means. My bosses aren't saying shit. It REALLY SUCKS to have two people you love. You love so much, you TRUST so much, say "I don't want you to think I did this. My worry was that you would think I"m a bad person. I love you."

Can someone please set me on a breadcrumb mafia place soon? cuz I'm tired and sad from adulting too much. I've only got so many tears left.

Lorab, Boomslang, JaggedJimmyJay, juliets and LC and Llama are attracting the most attention. It might be a nice idea to look into people other than them.

thanks for that. I think.

LoRab wrote:I need to wrap my brain around this game. I don't think I've played a champions game before--although I did co-host one. Cupcakes FTW!! Just got back from vacation...way too tired to think through what roles are included and how that decision may have been made. Will ponder after sleep. To do so earlier would be scandalous.

MacDougall wrote:The trick to day 1 is... don't read the posts, read the tone. Lorab especially reads tone bad. I can feel the backspaces she wrote as she second guessed her way into a fumbly first post. She bad, def bad.

Linki: I also analysed those options in Star Wars. I got no beef with you analysing the options, but you dived in so dramatically and are taking it so seriously. It's hard to say where my magical day 1 pings come from, but they are definitely magical.

I not, def not. That was painful to type.

You've never played a game with me bad--how do you know how to read my tone? Oh, and wait, you thought I was bad last game, too. And were wrong. Just saying.

Voted Ezekiel because rabbi--I mean, he's in the bible, and even in the half of it I believe in as sacred text.
