Jack has a dismissive tone whenever he talks or asks about INH, as though the INH voters were taken in by flawed reasoning. That's a subtle defense of INH, and the sudden urgency to lynch the INH voters reeks of an agenda.

You feel like Tony and I wanted him dead over LC?Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 21, 2017 7:16 pmNull on his own merits.
I'm shit at reading INH. He always dies before I figure him out and seems to be playing with cards close to his vest.
I didn't play in the Poppy game so "INH would have used a Poppy curse" doesn't sway me, at least not without more consensus. (Two, three people weighed in on it?) Is there further reason behind suspicion of him?
I don't think he's w/w with any of the players who voted for him yesterday. I feel you and Tony wanted him dead over LC and Rico hasn't backed off either.
News flash: I did want INH dead over LC.
I voted for him.

Re: Welcome to Night Vale Mafia [NIGHT 2]
I looked at the votes with the alternate view that Long Con was being thrown under the bus. I don't think that happened either. speedchuck voted first, as he did with Made. I don't think Lorab is the type to shell a teammate like that (although I don't know what she meant about ties- I don't recall it being a tie when she voted). sprityo's reasons for voting LC look organic enough. INH voted to save his own ass.
No, Long Con's team stayed on the sidelines.

I think you and your team cursed Ricochet. I know people want to write off the Poppy business, but I came in here at one point to say exactly what Ricochet had already said regarding the curse. Someone who played Blue Velvet is on the cursing team. I sure as hell didn't curse Rico with that nonsense, and Long Con didn't. I think you did. It's that simple. Is it a sexy case? No. But it doesn't have to be sexy to be right.insertnamehere wrote: ↑Fri Jul 21, 2017 8:35 pm Epi, for the second time, can you verbalize your stance on me?

Of the remaining players who played in that game, why is INH the one most likely to use that curse?
Keep in mind that some of us didn't play in Blue Velvet and only know what you and Rico are on about through context clues.
Since LC was clearly bad, explain how you are so sure INH is the curser that you were willing to lynch INH instead of LC?
(Expected response: LC was clearly bad?

Refuses to lay out his case. Makes getting further details feel like pulling teeth. Accuses anyone who doesn't agree with his unstated logic of being teamed with INH, who, again, is bad for reasons Epi refuses to state. Yet Epi was the one trying to prevent an LC lynch and we know LC is bad.
Epi. Check yer role pm. Cause you're bad.
You have such an agenda.

Hopefully people are taking notice of how Jack is on this little crusade to lynch INH voters. Lynch me, lynch Tony, lynch Ricochet. Maybe by then, people will wake up.
Jack still can't explain his theory that one or two of us were trying to save LC, when all Long Con's teammate had to do was vote Dom. I could have easily voted Dom because I voted Dom Day 1. He's going with this because it helps him set the agenda for Day 3. Don't let it happen.

This is one of the most annoying things in mafia to me.
Someone gets suspected for weak reasons. But, simply due to their name being thrown around, and a large part of the thread detailed to discussing them, they become legitimate targets for the lynch, mostly out of the other players' laziness.
Epi doesn't want to engage, because the more everyone talks about me, the easier it's gonna be to lynch me. It's in his best interest to prolong and prolong as long as humanly possible, and hope that sheer momentum pokes players into not reading the exchanges and instead assume that there's logic-based reasoning there. As long as he makes me into an option, that's one more option that's not him or his teammates.
Yes, I think you are bad, but my mind is open.

I'm leaning town on Dom, so no I don't particularly, but if he is bad I think it more likely he is lcs teammate than him being a politician based on their interactions with each other and me and the Nutella kill.

Re: Welcome to Night Vale Mafia [DAY 3]
Thanatopsis
By William Cullen Bryant
To him who in the love of Nature holds
Communion with her visible forms, she speaks
A various language; for his gayer hours
She has a voice of gladness, and a smile
And eloquence of beauty, and she glides
Into his darker musings, with a mild
And healing sympathy, that steals away
Their sharpness, ere he is aware. When thoughts
Of the last bitter hour come like a blight
Over thy spirit, and sad images
Of the stern agony, and shroud, and pall,
And breathless darkness, and the narrow house,
Make thee to shudder, and grow sick at heart;—
Go forth, under the open sky, and list
To Nature’s teachings, while from all around—
Earth and her waters, and the depths of air—
Comes a still voice—
Yet a few days, and thee
The all-beholding sun shall see no more
In all his course; nor yet in the cold ground,
Where thy pale form was laid, with many tears,
Nor in the embrace of ocean, shall exist
Thy image. Earth, that nourished thee, shall claim
Thy growth, to be resolved to earth again,
And, lost each human trace, surrendering up
Thine individual being, shalt thou go
To mix for ever with the elements,
To be a brother to the insensible rock
And to the sluggish clod, which the rude swain
Turns with his share, and treads upon. The oak
Shall send his roots abroad, and pierce thy mould.
Yet not to thine eternal resting-place
Shalt thou retire alone, nor couldst thou wish
Couch more magnificent. Thou shalt lie down
With patriarchs of the infant world—with kings,
The powerful of the earth—the wise, the good,
Fair forms, and hoary seers of ages past,
All in one mighty sepulchre. The hills
Rock-ribbed and ancient as the sun,—the vales
Stretching in pensive quietness between;
The venerable woods—rivers that move
In majesty, and the complaining brooks
That make the meadows green; and, poured round all,
Old Ocean’s gray and melancholy waste,—
Are but the solemn decorations all
Of the great tomb of man. The golden sun,
The planets, all the infinite host of heaven,
Are shining on the sad abodes of death,
Through the still lapse of ages. All that tread
The globe are but a handful to the tribes
That slumber in its bosom.—Take the wings
Of morning, pierce the Barcan wilderness,
Or lose thyself in the continuous woods
Where rolls the Oregon, and hears no sound,
Save his own dashings—yet the dead are there:
And millions in those solitudes, since first
The flight of years began, have laid them down
In their last sleep—the dead reign there alone.
So shalt thou rest, and what if thou withdraw
In silence from the living, and no friend
Take note of thy departure? All that breathe
Will share thy destiny. The gay will laugh
When thou art gone, the solemn brood of care
Plod on, and each one as before will chase
His favorite phantom; yet all these shall leave
Their mirth and their employments, and shall come
And make their bed with thee. As the long train
Of ages glide away, the sons of men,
The youth in life’s green spring, and he who goes
In the full strength of years, matron and maid,
The speechless babe, and the gray-headed man—
Shall one by one be gathered to thy side,
By those, who in their turn shall follow them.
So live, that when thy summons comes to join
The innumerable caravan, which moves
To that mysterious realm, where each shall take
His chamber in the silent halls of death,
Thou go not, like the quarry-slave at night,
Scourged to his dungeon, but, sustained and soothed
By an unfaltering trust, approach thy grave,
Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch
About him, and lies down to pleasant dreams.

And to the sluggish clod, which the rude swain
Turns with his share, and treads upon. The oak
Shall send his roots abroad, and pierce thy mould.
Yet not to thine eternal resting-place
Shalt thou retire alone, nor couldst thou wish
Couch more magnificent. Thou shalt lie down
With patriarchs of the infant world—with kings,
The powerful of the earth—the wise, the good,
Fair forms, and hoary seers of ages past,
All in one mighty sepulchre. The hills
Rock-ribbed and ancient as the sun,—the vales
Stretching in pensive quietness between;
The venerable woods—rivers that move
In majesty, and the complaining brooks
That make the meadows green; and, poured round all,
Old Ocean’s gray and melancholy waste,—
Are but the solemn decorations all
Of the great tomb of man. The golden sun,
The planets, all the infinite host of heaven,
Are shining on the sad abodes of death,
Through the still lapse of ages. All that tread
The globe are but a handful to the tribes
That slumber in its bosom.—Take the wings
Of morning, pierce the Barcan wilderness,
Or lose thyself in the continuous woods
Where rolls the Oregon, and hears no sound,
Save his own dashings—yet the dead are there:
And millions in those solitudes, since first
The flight of years began, have laid them down
In their last sleep—the dead reign there alone.
So shalt thou rest, and what if thou withdraw
In silence from the living, and no friend
Take note of thy departure? All that breathe
Will share thy destiny. The gay will laugh
When thou art gone, the solemn brood of care
Plod on, and each one as before will chase
His favorite phantom; yet all these shall leave
Their mirth and their employments, and shall come
And make their bed with thee. As the long train
Of ages glide away, the sons of men,
The youth in life’s green spring, and he who goes
In the full strength of years, matron and maid,
The speechless babe, and the gray-headed man—
Shall one by one be gathered to thy side,
By those, who in their turn shall follow them.
So live, that when thy summons comes to join
The innumerable caravan, which moves
To that mysterious realm, where each shall take
His chamber in the silent halls of death,
Thou go not, like the quarry-slave at night,
Scourged to his dungeon, but, sustained and soothed
By an unfaltering trust, approach thy grave,
Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch
About him, and lies down to pleasant dreams.

Dom parodied Trump in a game.

But cute.
You can't say you were suspicious of me since day 1 AND also say that my Night 1 rebuke of you is teh source of your suspicion, Golden. Which is it? I've asked this question before, and you've ignored it because you have no answer. Sad !:cheeky:
But you also didn't play the game where I parodied Donald Trump for most of it.

Re: Welcome to Night Vale Mafia [DAY 3]
timmer, I'm looking at the votes. You've missed both Day phase votes, but voted in the Night phase. I know you said you weren't aware anything had started for the first vote, but did you say why you missed the second vote? If you had voted Day 1 and 2, who would you have voted for and why?

Re: Welcome to Night Vale Mafia [DAY 3]
I'm sure you can guess my concern. A Day 1 missed vote, fine- but missing the Day 2 vote when LC got lynched just because you hadn't read everything looks like hiding to me.timmer wrote: ↑Sat Jul 22, 2017 4:19 pm Yeah, conversation is def. good, I had forgotten howfast these speed games move.
@Epi, I don't think I covered it, but I wasn't present in the game for the first vote, and the second vote I hadn't yet caught up, so I didn't see how randomly throwing out a vote would help. As for the night poll, it seemed like a typical night poll, so I just grabbed a spot, I don't even remember what my opition was.
Reading back, day 1 I would have essentially randomed my vote if I were here, there was nothing in my read that would have caught my attention. As for yesterday? I'm not sure. I don't think I'd have voted LC, so good on those who did.
For today, I'm still unsure. I ended up reading damn fast, and I'm at work. I won't be leading any charges today, for sure, but once others do, I'll find the time to ISO their suspicions and make a udgment.

I am probably going to vote for INH. Too bad you already voted.sprityo wrote: ↑Sat Jul 22, 2017 8:57 pm So having read Epi's ISO there was one thing abundantly clear
no large, collective posts regarding searching for information for a case on something
Day 1 is an entire shenanigan fest of jokes and a tunnel filled with TSP
this falls off as day 2 rolls around as he starts talking with Golden more, dropping shade on INH and Speedchuck as well
mostly everything ive read from Epi though reeks of defensive dismissive words. Maybe that's how he plays? but it looks unnatural to me. However, i dont think it warrants him a vote.... yet. were he to vote INH today it would definitely prompt me to vote for Epi, but in general he hasnt been playing optimally IMO

I think you need to research what throwing shade really means, speedchuck.

But seriously, you still think I'm the Faceless Old Woman?
Do you want me to repost my rebuttals so you can read and maybe respond to them?
Or would you just like to continue to ignore every point I make in favor of sitting in silence instead of engaging people about your suspicions?
You suspect me. Great, whoop-de-doo. Would you like to talk about it, and maybe be constructive?
I find it easy to lynch you because you are blatant in your schemes.

Re: Welcome to Night Vale Mafia [DAY 3]
You aren't bad. You voted early both times. One was Made but the other netted Long Con. If you are on the other team, you are being bold, and you have never struck me as bold. On top of that, your response to me about your switching opinions didn't have the aroma of agenda. If you are bad, I would be surprised.speedchuck wrote: ↑Sat Jul 22, 2017 9:47 pmPerhaps.

Poll ends soon. Voting INH to piss of spirtyo.
I am displeased that timmer has not voted. If he does not vote, I will likely be voting him next.

Re: Welcome to Night Vale Mafia [NIGHT 3]
Neverwhere is Pamela. Nobody has been off the poll.
Pamela Winchell
The former mayor of Night Vale and current Director of Emergency Press Conferences. Pamela may hold a press conference to remove someone from the lynch poll on three occasions.
Tony could be:
Tamika Flynn
The 13-year-old renowned destroyer of librarians and commander of an army of child soldiers, Tamika has amazing strength of will under duress. Tamika blocks a player on even nights. *Secrets*
Secrets there.
Kevin
Kevin is the host of Desert Bluffs Community Radio. He uses his dark, soulless eyes to silence a player each night. *Secrets*
Secrets there.
Hiram McDaniels
Literally a five-headed dragon; who cares? *Secrets*
Secrets there.
The Man in the Tan Jacket
Countless residents have seen him, but no one can seem to remember exactly what he looks like - just that he has a tan jacket and a deerskin suitcase, and he has been spotted all over town. *Secrets*
Secrets there.
That's three of four secrets that don't belong to civilians.
