No it does. You are wrong about me being bad, but I don't know about you and I need your input on players who aren't me.

I also need SVS and LC to get in here. SVS where were you and what are your thoughts. LC, why? What you did made no sense.

Everyone who voted me today, I have been fighting tooth and nail this game. I had no way of telling what the results of DF's flip would be, only a guess. I explained this, and set up the wagon that shouldn't have worked. Please look at LC and compare his actions to how I've read them. If anything, read him as saving me yesterday, putting him on my team, meaning his lynch should be just as justifiable as mine.

Roller coaster?? After Serge died, you are the Civviest Civ on my rainbow list, Wilgy. Of course I voted to save you - YOU chose DF as the vehicle for that, not me.

Those two sentences are separate viewpoints. Do you or do you not think Wilgy is bad, since you say I may be right?

This sentence is bullsuit. You placed the tieing vote for a lynch. That is, inherently, "making a big thing out of it".

Views on the votes.
DFaraday - DrWilgy (9), Metalmarsh89 (10), Sorsha (11), Long Con (12) 33%
DrWilgy - Scotty (3), Epignosis (5), birdwithteeth11 (6), DFaraday (8) 33%
Missed - SVS (never) bbq%

I'm pretty sure the only reason I lived is because a captain or 2 wanted me to.

From night 2:

Long Con wrote:I've been a baddie with Zebra before, and she absolutely loves the idea of teammate bussing.

This was in a wall post regarding Wilgy.

You must have forgotten that you were the 4th and last vote for zebra. At that point in day 2, the only other vote was Epi's SVS one.

This is your first interaction with zebra, day 2:

Twenty minutes later:

Long Con wrote:
a2thezebra wrote:

This whole back-and-forth has reached the level of contrived.

And you vote zebra.

Day 3: you come out swinging with 4 major points against Wilgy that could categorize him as being zebra's busmate:

Spoiler: show

Long Con wrote:Ok Wilgy, here's some responses:

DrWilgy wrote:Also, what would've prompted said "bold moves" that statement doesn't make any sense. Since there's no cause. Cause and effect statements only work if there's a cause which you haven't presented.

If "with the numbers" or the set player number is the cause... Why then? Why would on day 2, I would go after my teammate instead of day 1? Why not wait till 3 if numbers is the reason? after being hardly vocal, and numbers have anything to do with that? Perhaps my thoughts were this "hey I know we just gained some advantage in our baddie to civ ratio, now is clearly the time to make a bold move and go after my teammate."

What you are saying and/or proposing makes no sense.

Tldr - What about the exchange was ludicrous, what prompted my bold moves if I'm bad, and what do the numbers have to do with my actions? Because right now it seems like you are saying things to say them.
You're taking a gut theory and trying to analyze it out of existence, if you understand what I mean. I don't have a Big Reason why it would happen on Day 2, and not Day 1 or Day 3. I've been a baddie with Zebra before, and she absolutely loves the idea of teammate bussing. In Coquelicot Mafia, on a baddie team with me, she actually was making moves that made it take slightly longer, and made it slightly harder, for us to win, because she wanted to stick with a bussing plan so badly. We still quite dominated that game, but won a day later than we could have because she didn't want to give it up. And it wasn't even for a big reason, it was just because she had started it and wanted to stay the course and have fun with it. We were cool with it (albeit with rolled eyes and some sidelong concerned glances) because our victorious outcome seemed pretty inevitable either way at that point.

I don't recall seeing you play this way before, Wilgy. You are so carefree and zany so much of the time, and since zebra's lynch, you have changed into a laser-focused player that I don't recognize. I don't know how to analyze that, can you point to a time when you have done it before? You seem like a completely different player.

You say that what I proposed made no sense with *reasons* why... hell, you have typed fifty times the words against it that I ever used to put it out there. It was how I felt at the time, at one point in your back-and-forth with her, it stopped feeling like a real conversation to me. That's all, I understand that you don't want me or anyone else to feel that way, you have given reasons why it "makes no sense"... but the zebra I know and the Wilgy I thought I knew don't always require that logical core, they are players who are willing to freewheel it and splash a little chaos in order to hopefully come out on top of it all. Unlike players such as Dom and Epi, who I view as wanting to keep tight control on their perspectives and posts at all times.

Lastly (on this point anyways), as a teammate, you would have had no idea that the zebra accusation would catch on as much as it did, but your back-and-forth ended up dominating a large part of Day 2, due to this being a quieter sort of game.

This was really tough to do, and it's a bit of a hasty slap-chop. I still feel most comfortable with going by the missed kill evidence and lynching BWT. DF, Scotty, and Metalmarsh are vaguely interchangable, I think I trust them less than Sorsha-S~V~S-Epi. Wilgy, I haven't really entertained the notion that you and zeebs are teammates since your original reaction, I like you as a Civ right now. Serge too.

Day 4: you question Wilgy's stubbornness and say stuff like "I can't understand you", "I'm calling fake" and "you're acting strange".

Votes DFaraday because he is a "baddie bad bad"

So let's sum up your thought process this game concerning Wilgy-zebra
-Zebra who?
-Zebra, are you sure Wilgy is bad?
-Both Wilgy and zebra are bad. The exchange looks staged. Voting zebra.
-Zebra was bad, and so is Wilgy.
-Wilgy is bad, but BWT probably missed that night kill, so voting BWT. But Wilgy is still bad.
-Here's a huge post outlining reasons Wilgy is bad.
-Wilgy looks pretty civ to me.
-don't understand Wilgy. He's acting fake.
-DFARADAY IS BAD. Literally saves Wilgy after calling him bad all game, except for the one part where Wilgy is "the civviest civ on my rainbow list."

So far, I have no idea what stance LC is taking besides being a plastic bag in the wind.

Based on his responses, I'd throw LC up there as a Wilgy teammate.

Of course, I think his entire team voted for DFaraday, and I think they're starting to think they may have a numbers advantage after tonight.

The End

Sometimes, no matter how hard one strives, no matter how carefully laid the plans, circumstances conspire to ruin any chances of success. Such was the case with young Redmond Barry, whose abbreviated career never displayed the promise offered by his ambition.

Epignosis has been killed. The Captains have won the game.
Congratulations to a2thezebra, Long Con, Metalmarsh89 and Sorsha.

In hindsight, I suppose this could be regarded as another failed Llama experiment. Although I don't think the game was unbalanced so much as heavily dependent on the first day/night cycle. A successful lynch combined with a kill by Barry would have left the mafia decimated almost before they began. However, Rocochet(Barry) had the misfortune to draw the first night kill, which lefts the civilians without much hope.

I apologize for the brevity of the game, but I hope people had gun all the same. Thank you, as ever, for playing!
