I wasn't caught up on the thread at that point, and I'm still not, but we're home, and we have poured our drinks and counted up the money from the event, and I'm going to go back to quite a few hours ago and catch up on the thread. Close one for me, sorry you were an Indy S~V~S, but there was really no place else to put my vote. Sorry that BR missed the vote; she was off getting the truck from where it was parked at the time, and I couldn't even tell her to get on frantically like I did to cast a last-minute vote. I doubt she would have voted for me anyway, because, you know, I'm her husband.

Nice analysis of my post. I'm sure everyone agrees with the awesome analysis that I was "pulling some fake concerned/scared shit" and that it was not joking, but actually "uppity and overconfident". You are truly a master of reading the subtext in a two- to three-word post. I thought that I was too smart for you, and that you'd think I was just joking back at you for your own (seemingly) jokey post, but you have proven to everyone that your keen analytical skills were something that I was completely underestimating.Cobalt wrote:Cobalt wrote:Long Con, I'm coming for your weave this game.Some fake concerned/scared shit that he's pulling here.

It's good to know that YOUR posts are the genuine article for putting something out there to gauge reactions - that's how I know that you are being completely impartial and fair when you say that my own attempts to do so were not real.I don't buy that he was doing that either, as I already said in a previous post. He was basically saying "I talked shit and called it a shoving match to see what you would say about it", but who lays bait that specific for just one player during day 0 of the game? My post in which I talked about my previous games was a general post to see who would really point it out or come for me with it, because I wanted to see who would pick up on it or call me out on it, if anyone, to get a feel for the field a little bit.Epignosis wrote:Nah.Long Con wrote:Yes, that's what happened.

I don't buy that you were doing that.
Obviously I was "playing an angle", and not just "giving my opinion" on Sloonei's posts. It must be tough for you, you're so adept at unravelling my complex web of deceit normally, and yet you can't quite figure out what angle I was playing. I'll let your mind down easy on this one" I wasn't playing an angle at all. That's why you couldn't figure it out.He picked a person that I would be pinged by for trying to drum up suspicion on me this early, like Sloonei, and the tries to make me look better? Or does that make me look worse? What angle is he playing here?Long Con wrote:I don't find anything suspicious about Gumshoe contributing to the discussion. I'm more pinged by those, like Sloonei, whose "initial reaction" was that Gum was defending Cobalt.

Is it that easy to catch baddies?
Mind blown. It's no surprise that you're kissing Epi's ass here, because he's doing most of the legwork on a task that you decided was yours from the moment you signed up to another game with me. I'm sorry if it's hard for you to get, but is IS paranoia on Epi's part to take a statement like "MP and Epi's shoving match" and turn it into a future vote or bandwagon attempt or whatever on either of them. That's all in Epi's head, I'm surprised that he got so worked up about a single mention of his name. How is it OMGUS when I call him out for jumping to frightened conclusions about a single mention of his name, and yet it's not OMGUS for him to accuse me when he THINKS that I was planning on accusing him sometime in the future? Weird, huh? Makes you think. That is, if you're interested in doing any real thinking this game, maybe you'd prefer to keep pursuing me for getting the better of you in the last game, and riding on someone else's coattails.He totally goes OMGUS on Epi here and says that he's paranoid when really Epi makes a great point about how he can now commit to a MP or Epi train later on when or if the opportunity presents itself, which I also got a vibe like that from his shoving match post. Why point it out if you don't have something to think about it? (I think someone already said something to the effect of that question. Why not wait until you DO have something to think about it before posting about it? Unless you would use it to pass yourself off later?)Long Con wrote:The "manipulation" you're seeing is only your own paranoia. I wasn't manipulating anything, I was just offering my point of view on the current goings-on.Epignosis wrote:Long Con is still my #1 suspect, however.
His manipulation is transparent to me.
In case I haven't been clear, here is what I see is happening in this one line:Long Con wrote:I'm not too pinged by this truce thing, and I don't know what to think about the shoving match between MP and Epig yet.
Long Con mischaracterizes and trivializes the exchange MP and I had Day 0. He quoted a bunch of posts from MP and me and called it a shoving match. He said he doesn't like the term "pissing match" (Glad he forewent "tug of war"). Neither of those terms accurately describes what was going on there.
However, this serves the neater purpose of giving LC a place to vote if either an Epignosis or MP lynch gains momentum. He comments on it without saying anything meaningful about it (except for making it sound uglier than it is), which shows his audience that he is aware something is going on there, all the while leaving himself free to vote for either of us if the opportunity presents itself.
I don't think "tug of war" is the metaphor I would use for the exchange between you and MP. I saw it more as you each confronting the other with questions that demanded answers, while the other deflects it away with a different question. It's pretty much up to any reader to decide if the "shoving match" metaphor is accurate, or way off. It describes how I read the exchange, so it's the metaphor I used.
I'm surprised by how defensive you got about it. In the last part of the quoted post, you have me voting for you and MP over this. I didn't comment on it to say it's suspicious, or even that it's unusual for the two of you. I said I don't know what to make of it, and you are reading a lot into that and feeling threatened by it. All it means is that you guys asked more questions than you gave answers, and that left some things hanging, cut off others before they could become discussions. Maybe I'll "know what to make of it" when there's more answers and opinions, and less stonewalling.
Loud and clear, chief.If LC flips bad, I'm inclined to think S~V~S a little bit clearer. She's the other person people have expressed scum leans on, so why throw shade on one of the only other talked about scum reads in the game? As far as I know, some people are willing to lynch Long Con and some people are willing to lynch SVS. Seems like a convenient opportunity to make her look bad if people would be persuaded to vote for her.Long Con wrote:Epi for his defensive reaction to the "shoving match" comment. He's turned it into an excuse to suspect and vote for him, when it was just a comment on the situation. And he's accusing me of lying about saying things to gauge reactions, when the shoving comment wasn't even the first time I did it.
The S~V~S suspicion is based on her possible buddying behaviour to me. I have seen her do this kind of thing in the past, so it stands out to me. It also seems a bit like she was choosing that "issue" to comment and offer opinion about, because it's not a direct player opinion or accusation, but it does show up as contribution. Comments on issues rather than players are an easy way for a baddie to be involved without getting their hands dirty.
So in conclusion, I think a lot of what Long Con says is scummy. Just on gut I got a bad vibe from him, and me saying that I was coming for his weave early in the game was a joke that turned into reality when I found he looked worse with every post he made. Yes, I still want to lynch him as some form of salty revenge for the last game when he successfully fooled me as scum, but much of my vote lies with the above-outlined analysis.
Even though I have a scum read on you at the moment, I still appreciate that you made this post. So many people have just avoided commenting on the "shoving match" comment, thank you for acknowledging that you agree with the metaphor.Sloonei wrote:I do not buy the argument against LC that he in some way lied about posting for reactions and the whole "shoving match"' series of posts. More than that, I don't like it. Here is the post in which he explains himself:There is no claim in here that he was searching for any particular reaction to any particular thing. These words are in response to Epi calling him out for not having fully formed opinions before posting. What LC meant with this post, I think, was simply to refute Epi's suggested strategy with his own: post things even when you're not sure why you think them, see what happens, and react.Long Con wrote:Yes, that's what happened.

For the record, I also thought "shoving match" was a perfectly suitable way to describe the echange between MP and Epi.
I don't want to seem like I am defending LC, it's just that there are so many facets to the case against him that I actively dislike.
I know you're dead, so let's picture this post as me at your grave, talking to your headstone. Attacking Epignosis IS what you were doing, but that is how buddying up looks a lot of the time. It doesn't have to be you agreeing with my opinions and suspicions, it just has to be generally advocating an opinion that you knew would be parallel to my own. I've seen so much of this since I really clued into it during that game a while back (you and Canuck, you know the one), that I'm pretty sensitive to it now.S~V~S wrote:Why do you read that as buddying you, as opposed to attacking Epignosis, which is what i was doing?Long Con wrote:I did think it was strange when Hedgeowl was talking about bandwagon votes before voting even started. I thought it was a good sentiment for me personally to have out there, since Epig and Cobalt seem to wish for a bandwagon to happen on me, but it's an odd thing to say nonetheless.
S~V~S may be trying to pocket me with her defense of the word "interesting" and attack on Epig. My lynch would end up making her look better, and my survival with her in my "good books" would be advantageous as well.
If I were making a rainbow list at this point, I'd have Sloonei, Hedgeowl, S~V~S, and Epig as slight Mafia reads, and Golden and MP as slight Civ. I guess I don't need to invoke the rainbow to just say that. I want to read back over the Gumshoe stuff to see who else seemed to be trying to cast it in a worse light than I think it is, I don't think Sloonei was the only one, just the one that stuck out to me.

Your implication that Gum and Cobalt were baddies because of a seeming defense of each other was not realistic to me. I don't think it's something that scum teammates would do so early, for so little. Baddies usually prefer to keep distance from their teammates, either not mentioning them, or declaring a slight suspicion of them. I just don't think it's likely that Gum and Cob were doing that, but you accused them of it.Long Con wrote:I don't find anything suspicious about Gumshoe contributing to the discussion.

That last sentence is funny. It's not really about the way they related to me, it just so happens that Epi and Cobalt are working hard to try and make me the focus of conversation. I would feel the same way about their posts if they were saying these things about someone else, but that's not the game we're playing right now. If the content that made me suspicious also involves me, should I avoid addressing it?Turnip Head wrote:This is what was bothering me too. LC lists you and Epi as two of his suspects and it's related to how you've behaved toward him, it feels like a close-minded thought process. In addition, his suspicion of you is predicated on what will happen if he, Long Con, is lynched and flips civvie. That feels like basic level NO U-ing, right there.

What is this I don't even. I was not suspicious of the two of them together and I don't think I ever said that. I mentioned my initial reaction was that Gum was defending Cobalt, but I did not mean to assert that statement as an actual suggestion. Rather I meant to imply that my opinion had changed since then. I picked out that post because it was Day 0 and I wanted to start somewhere. It was not "drumming up phony suspicion", it was getting the ball rolling.Long Con wrote:I laid it out in an earlier post, let me just grab it for you.Sloonei wrote:Why do you have me as a scum read?

That's why it looks like an attempt to drum up a phony suspicion of them - because the suspicion is based on something pretty unlikely. And Civvies just don't need to drum up phony suspicions, they need to figure out the truth. That's why I read you as a baddie for it.
That's not it at all. I was swayed by the case against SVS - that and the fact that she voted herself made it look really scummy. I was keeping my vote where it was unless a clearer target presented itself - which it did.Long Con wrote:Cobalt wrote:We have like less than 8 hours from the deadline.

Did you really say this? What an ugly statement, it's so predatory - stick with the grudge vote, but I'll hop on a different bandwagon if everyone else does too.
hahaha not likely. But wouldn't it be hilarious if both are on different mafia teams?So from your initial posts, saying you generally preferred to bandwagon on Day 1 (which that by itself is either newby and/or suspicious), to being the 4th person to vote today (for Cobalt), apologizing for backtracking with the excuse that you weren't gonna be around later on, then in the same post saying you suspected that SVS was mafia, and NOT VOTING FOR HER.TinyBubbles wrote:Anyway, what timmer said about cobalt revenge voting makes some sense, im gonna go ahead and trust his instincts, and vote for cobalt now.

I may just be setting myself up for an early lynching myself by doing this, but dont want to miss the vote like in last games (wont be home 10 hrs from now) dont want to vote long con because of what i said before, svs is still a mystery but he hasnt voted which makes mphim slightly less suspicious than cobalt at the moment. I actually feel like svs is mafia, but dont have anything concrete to point to

So you'll nonchalantly "reread" their posts to see if you want to change your mind, now that you're already currently voting for SVS and not Cobalt.Weird thing to comment about right after a lynching.

I'm sorry to harp on things, Sloonei, but that last sentence just pings me, man!

Wow, nice job Golden. Cool beans. So of all of the available roles, Songs for a New World is the only real song cycle there, with maaaaybe Last 5 Years. But for all intents and purposes, let's assume it's SfaNW. Brainstorming a little here. The way you've ordered these sentences come off as reactionary to something. Like, maybe if Jason Robert Brown is killed, "time will stop" and instead the Songs for a New World can take the fall instead. The last 2 sentences could just be flavor text. "Row much more than you'd think" could be a reference to traveling across the [metaphorical] ocean (which is a lyric in the title song). That would be pretty cool.Golden wrote:I have rearranged each word that appears in my PM so that it appears only once and forms a meaningful sentence. This is what I come up with.

Could be a night action, and not specifically in reference to Cats, but to all Broadway revivals..role checking is similar to memory. Maybe there's a correlation? Hmm. Any other words stand out to you in yours?
Honestly, all I was hoping for was someone like Sloonei to say 'hey, I also have this other word' - or vice versa. But no-one bit at all. I couldn't turn it into anything intersting at all. I was hoping for 'death in the second row' (ie the phantom) but no 'in the'.Scotty wrote:Wow, nice job Golden. Cool beans. So of all of the available roles, Songs for a New World is the only real song cycle there, with maaaaybe Last 5 Years. But for all intents and purposes, let's assume it's SfaNW. Brainstorming a little here. The way you've ordered these sentences come off as reactionary to something. Like, maybe if Jason Robert Brown is killed, "time will stop" and instead the Songs for a New World can take the fall instead. The last 2 sentences could just be flavor text. "Row much more than you'd think" could be a reference to traveling across the [metaphorical] ocean (which is a lyric in the title song). That would be pretty cool.Golden wrote:I have rearranged each word that appears in my PM so that it appears only once and forms a meaningful sentence. This is what I come up with.
"Upon their death time can stop. A song cycle will follow second, be there. If they are lynched about day two, so what. Row much more than you’d think."
I want to know, @DFaraday, since both of our PMs seem similar if not the same, how many words does yours have? If it has the same amount, I'm going to start thinking down a different path on whether or not there is only ~4 unique PMs and what that could mean.
And what does her turning up Indy mean to you, following your train of thought here?sig wrote:Okay looked over both I will be sticking with SVS I can't get over that she voted for herself and I'm taking a gamble here but if she flips mafia I will think Cobalt is right about LC as well, if she flips Civ I would think Cobalt is mafia.
No it's not, why would you say that, you wanted me gone for roughly 96 hours before that last-second vote.Cobalt wrote:That's why I want him gone.Gumshoe wrote:This caught my eye. Is this true? Because apparently he was waiting and watching the poll without posting as he swooped in last second to finish off SVS.nutella wrote:@ sloonei LC said he wouldn't be around (a factor in my picking Cobalt over him).
Oh, ok!Cobalt wrote:That's why I want him gone ESPECIALLY now.
That's the second time you've said my posts are off in some way. I'm feeling quite LCish in my posting so far this game, so I'll just say I disagree with your assessment of me. So vague too! And yeah, Pilate was... a genuine departure from any "style" I have used before. The fact that I won that game just tickles me.nutella wrote:I'm getting a weird vibe from LC and I can't really put my finger on it. It's like he doesn't seem LCish to me. But maybe that's because I haven't really played with him in a while (not counting Pilate which was decidedly not his usual style) and I may be projecting misremembered conceptions of his style, or maybe it's because he's been busy IRL, idk there's just been something nagging at the back of my head about all his posts so far that just feels not quite right. Obviously he's particularly on the defensive right now so maybe I am reading too much into how he's acting under pressure.
I'll talk to BR about that possibility - avocado is trendy these days!Nice sandwich truck! Needs some avocado though.
Just to reiterate - the story I told about asking the time two minutes before the vote was over, and logging in on my phone to vote, and seeing a tie that I was part of... is all true. It's truly the way it happened, and I'm lucky to have not missed the vote entirely. I was not following the thread at the time I voted.Gumshoe wrote:I just want to mention, regarding the LC stealth vote, that it's not him voting SVS at the end that stands out to me. It was him or her. Everyone would want to save themselves, good or bad. However, if he really claimed he wouldn't be around and didn't post at all leading up to the ending of the poll when people would have loved to hear from one of the top suspects - the fact that he WAS around during that time is very fishy.
Hell yeah!
