Not particularly.

What motivated your choice?

This seems incredibly uncharacteristic of you.

Incredibly is an adverb.

Also, not really. There is too much information to sort through and make a 100% helpful decision. Every one of the roles is going to get used, and this position won't even last all that long before the next one. I don't see the point in splitting hairs over it.

I don't necessarily disagree; I just was surprised, especially when you were perhaps one of the most analytic and vocal players during the Death Note Day 0.

Your explanation is logical enough, but I don't find fault with analyzing the positions to see if a good enough XX% helpful decision is possible.

Is there such a role on this roster?

Currently, yes. There are "5 vanilla" at the moment.

I hate that adverb shit I'm just pointing out yours to see if any of the people who drink that fucked up Kool Aid will attack you for it or not.

I know you do; you're just trying to draw the Epignosis out of his cave. I'm telling you to stop.

I think if you divide your research by quantity and quality you will find that one is meaningless, and the other is not.

I caught a baddie with the adverb theory in Watchmen. Just sayin'.

Disagree, Sloonei was caught for other reasons as well, and he generally uses adverbs in his speech, but if you want to claim that's why you found him as a single reason, go for it.

Have you been a victim of this?

I would still agree though. Watchmen rings all the bells here.

Watchmen, yes. "Golden is bad because he did a really obvious attempted save on the baddie we lynched". I have forgiven DH though.

I've done a look through and, given what MM pointed out, I'm happy with option 5.

POST. I see you voted. Any reason you chose the one you did?

not really, it's just the first number so why not start at the beginning
since we are going to cycle through all 5 positions anyway
and I like the number 1 :P

That was my reasoning, copycat. Are you bad?

DharmaHelper wrote:I voted for Position 1, because its best to start at the beginning.

By calling it "adverb theory," you've demonstrated a remarkable understanding of the concept itself and also what a theory in general is.

A concept is an abstract idea. "The adverb thing" is not an abstract idea with no objective or concrete rules.

Bitch.

No, you were Erlatz. DH was your first recruit, then Pangy and TH, then me, then bleag, if I recall correctly.

And yes, FUNNY OR DIE.

He is enjoying it as much as you.

I did not suspect you at all until this. It's as if you are saying--last time I had back and forth I was good, therefore, duh, I'm good. It doesn't work that way. And, claiming good seems disingenuous, unless you're role claiming, since 28 out of 36 players are neutral, and only 4 players are civ--I don't think you're actually claiming one of those roles. But I do think you might be one of the foul four.

Especially with the: anyone that suspects me must be eevul.

I will not vote for LoRab today.

Lorab, I just don't give a shit at some point.

I want epi dead and god help me if I fall into a kill thats where I'm using it.

I don't like people who use lies to suspect me. I'm fine with those who will suspect me based on truthful interpretations.

I gave epi lots of chances to read back and see that he was wrong about his own factual statements. He wilfully chose to ignore them. He still claims his version of events is true. Anyone is free to read and see that what I have said is objectively true and what he has said is objectively, patently, false. I just don't think anyone should have to put up with constantly defending themselves against made up bullshit.

How do you know that?

I see reasons to vote for Golden, but I'll let things play out. I also have a reason not to vote for him.

I thought I had something on Golden, but apparently not. And I feel like I've seen him get cornered and thrash about like this (and voted for him), then had him get lynched and flip civ. So I'm trying to be cautious with Golden.

I guess right now I'm unsure on him one way or the other. But if I had to vote right now, he would not get my vote.

He falls on my list of "players that is trying really hard and deserves to make it past Day 1". That said, I will not vote for Golden today.

Linki: I do like bars that have the raw fruits like that in it. It sounds delicious right now, that or beer.

Also had pineapple, coconut, and dates.

It reminds me of Lara bars, which are good and pretty inexpensive too. Is your poop going to be the same color as Golden's case now? Epignosis found the color scheme noteworthy.

Are you a recruiter? You should recruit me so we can discuss this BTS.

And was deliberately done very early right in the middle of other people trying to figure out which position was best.

Then he did all his adverb stuff.

What I will say is, I suggest people read DH back for themselves. But the very distinct impression I get is that, even for DH, he is trying to play up almost too hard how much he really doesn't care.
