I haven't been reading much at all. I just picked the people I would initially suspect to be baddies given their civvie/baddie ratios for the year.

Also, there are apparently items in the game

Yes, definitely. But the Donner Party was a game where Roxy experimented with shifting alignments and roles, so it inevitably needed to be rewritten extensively.

That's understandable, I've probably read half the thread or so.

#54

The role was conceived before we fit it with the flavor. Other roles were adapted more faithfully. If I had thought about it or considered that Star Wars was going to qualify for this game I might have named the role Obi-Wan, but sadly Star Wars is the only 2015 game not represented in our setup

Maybe Sidoh is still out there somewhere

#55

Is there a role that is responsible for the Night Polls?

I sure as hell didn't come up with them. I'll let SVS speak for herself :P

Also, a form of that role has made it into the game, but reduced, lol.

#59

Jesus you guys mixed a lot of roles and games into each other

.

I guess it's not a coincidence that both night polls have had 5 options so far?

#60

MP and me voted Zebra in the D1 poll

And I named Epi and zebra my top 2 baddie reads.

#62

Having only gotten a glimpse at the roles this game with just 3 reveals, my hat is off to both of you, TH and S~V~S, for melding these games together with awesome dynamics. Such intriguing reinventions of roles so far!

#63

Sad to see Zeebs go, she's a fun player. And her role had a secret trigger which, if it had happened, would have been truly hilarious.

But I'm especially heartbroken to see the Barry Allen role gone so soon

RIP DFaraday.

Indeed, those both seemed like great roles and they are both players I enjoy watching / playing alongside!

When are they going to show their faces here?

#65

I'll be shocked if Juliets and HBoy are mafia.

Probably when I figure out how to add them. I don't know if we'll see Zeebs in here though. SVS and I haven't talked about what we'll do with dead baddies, I assume they'd want to stay in their chatrooms.

#67

They are added, they were last night. I will drop them a PM.

#68

Aw we can only vote one person in the poll.

So I voted Zebra

Cheater. :P

That was an oversight I changed it to 5 options.

#71

S~V~S wrote:That was an oversight I changed it to 5 options.

Going to have to think about this.

JJJ's teammate interactions are yummy food for my hungry analytic-driven mafia brain. I feel as though I should have some solid suspicions (rather than vague reads as I did Day 1), given zebra's flip, but it hasn't all sunk in fully yet.

#72

zebra should come in and just tell us who her teammates are. :P

Seriously though, I'd rather remain unspoiled.

#73

She isn't allowed to, lol.

#74

Well, we all talked about it and she would rather stay in baddie chat, so no baddies for you

#75

S~V~S wrote:Well, we all talked about it and she would rather stay in baddie chat, so no baddies for you

Can't say I blame her.

#76

So where is DF then?

I voted five peeps that I voted yesterday because I don't have time to read the thread.

#77

I came onsite, and looked at where I expected this forum to be, and it was not there, I just sat here & stared at my monitor, lol. I logged out & logged back in & started to panic, then I saw that it had just been moved, lol.

And faraday can come here if he wants

#78

A big Welcome to sig

#79

psh nobody even mentioned me in this thread so rude. :P

#80

I thought you were civilian, sig! I think. :P

I haven't been following the game D2 that much, really, been preoccupied with other things.

#81

lol good, I was trying to play like my Frisky Dingo game, stay out of the way but, I got dragged out. I do think I got it right about JJJ/DH and the voocre/audio posts, not being able to vote day 1 was weird. I wouldn't think I was high profile, so I'm guessing I was onto something with my night 0 thoughts.

I'm also wondering if LC is scum and figured out my alignment since I sent him a shield last night. :rip

So Zebra really was scum, guess I was overthinking things.

#82

oh Epi might be scum to, his lack of presence seems strange.

#83

Sorry for the way your lynch went down sig, it seemed like no one wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt

I would have loved to see you in action a little longer.

On the bright side, your flip might have unforseen consequences for some of the baddies

[/cryptic]

#84

I've read a bit more of the thread. Consider my strong support of juliets being civilian withdrawn.

Not sure why sig was unanimously lynched like that. Feels like deja vu.

#85

Thanks, I'm surprised it went south so quickly.
oooo I want to see these unforeseen consequences will my shields blow up and kill them since that would be cool :P

yeah like I will be the first person to admit some games my mislynches are justified, but I didn't see it this game at all.

#86

No Th & I were sitting there like :o

#87

Voted.

#88

I really hope the scum pushed my wagon, I'll be sad if it was the civs.

#89

How do you manage to get lynched so often sig

?

#90

I can empathize; I used to get lynched on or before Day 3 pretty often for a while there.

#91

RIP you three. Sucks. I wasn't reading any of you as mafia, but wasn't strong town reading any of you either.

#92

I was going to give a shield to Fuzz TO BAD THEY LYNCHED ME :P

I only kid welcome to spectators chat, also Typhoony I'm just cool that way.

#93

Welcome to all new nubs

#94

What do people think of JJJ? I've never played with him :P

#95

Typhoony wrote:What do people think of JJJ? I've never played with him :P

He seems pretty on-meta to me, though in a lesser form for RL reasons he's been clear to stress (he's like me in that regard).

GTH I'd say he's a civilian, though I'm not sold on it. I've seen him as a civilian more often than mafia (unsurprisingly), and he can imitate his supatown meta really well as a mafia. I may be more inclined to see him as civilian because I'm smelling possible mafia in his three main attackers at the moment (Dom, Long Con, Metalmarsh), though it's difficult to say for sure.

With regards to my doubt, he hasn't been hunting mafia in the way I'd expect a supatown JJJ to do. Too much reliance on self-defense, whereas I'd expect a civilian JJJ to have undertaken more analysis by now and have more firm suspects by Day 3. He doesn't seem to be leading the thread as much as I'm accustomed to, but it could be partially because he's on TS and not RYM. And while his zebra interaction ISOs were inspired, I didn't get the impression that JJJ was really trying to find bad guys. That could be a reflection of mafia mindset (he doesn't care to, or has to fabricate his hunt), or of burnout regardless of alignment.

Hence I could entertain him as mafia, either zebra's team or not, but less likely to be zebra's team than the other team (if it were anyone's idea to target someone on their own team with a curse N1, I much more am apt to believe it's zebra's idea than JJJ's, since that doesn't seem his style).

In the end though, especially in his posts made today, I believe him -- and it's hard to express exactly why -- so call it a gut evaluation, especially since I haven't been keeping up with the whole game. Therefore, I question the motives of those trying to get him lynched. We'll see if I'm wrong though.

#96

To add to that, regarding why people are voting him, I don't get it. While I am not sold on his town-ness, I think the case brought against him is very weak, and I expect more out of an LC case. I realize it is still early in the game, but I just don't really buy any of it; it's all predicated on assumptions that I think either (1) seem to be a stretch (the zebra teammate connection), or (2) are criticisms of JJJ's behavior that, from what I've seen, don't indicate his alignment one way or the other.

That said though, I don't get practically any of the lynchees so far this game. Rico was obviously trying to get himself lynched, sig did what again?, and the thread has been very single-track, for the most part, especially for so many normally inquisitive players. Consider me confused at the major suspects continually.

If I were in the game and a lone civilian, I'd be going after those who both pelted sig with accusations and are now going after JJJ. From what I've read, no one other than FZ. has really been questioning any of the sig voters (other than JJJ, lol, which I'll admit was a bit of a strange vote for him, and makes me doubt my believing him), which I find odd, since that was super bandwagony.

#97

Again, though, I'm not exactly 100% into the game; those are just my impressions based on what I've managed to get out of what I've read (probably between 60 - 70% of the thread now).

Dom, LC, and MM I just haven't managed to get any real reason to trust anything they're doing this game. I'm not sure what DH is doing either; I find myself consistently disagreeing with him, which I find strange.

#98

Day two~ who is bad?

I agree with just about everything Golden said in this post.

#100

And then the only discrepancy between what we were thinking was solved by this post:

Golden wrote:Actually, my ping on dom is a lot higher than that now. I just reread his interaction with JJJ and it is bad. Really bad. The guilt trips like 'that seems like a shot at bea' and criticising JJJ for doing what he has to to explain the difference in his post count. Ugh. It feels like a trap he is putting JJJ into.

Beautiful, Golden. Now if you're mafia...

Do you wish to be spoiled?
