Why are you voting Long Con?

@Long Con
Why didn’t you vote me then? I did basically the exact same thing as Juliets only with a neat gif.

Jack, I voted for him only in solidarity with Mac and for self preservation purposes because if I recall correctly, he was the only other person who had a vote on him this morning besides me and Mac. I really don't want to remain on him but I haven't found a better place to go yet. Also I don't know why he still has his vote on me, he's had plenty of opportunity to take it off. If Dom still doesn't see that Mac is civ I could move my vote their.

Who are you looking at (besides me)? Are you still seeing a bad Rej? Seems like you had several you were considering as bad.

I just posted in answer to Jack that if Dom still can't see that Mac is civ I will probably vote there. Otherwise I am taking a look at some others now.

One thing I want to ask you while I have your attention, you haven't been the civ nova I know so well, posting a lot and all over the thread. Is there a reason for that?

I was on vacation all week and the hotel was like hey we have free wifi and I'm like awesome that'll be great.... turns out that free wifi doesn't even reach all the way to our hotel room. Soooo I'm on my way home today and will have internet later. I didn't want to use up all my data in one week. I've been trying to keep up as much as I can.

sable, thanks for letting us know what happened.

Now that you're back, who are you looking at as bad? If you haven't fully caught up yet hopefully you will have some thoughts tonight after work when you are able to catch up.

[mention]sig[/mention] where the heck are you? You replaced in for Oreki and haven't posted a single time which is highly unusual for you. What's the story?

I realized as I'm reading people that I don't have the heart to vote for Rej even if I decided he looked bad. I just feel really bad for him. If he's bad he's not bad alone so I'm after the others.

Hmm...can you tell me what seemed evasive? I was defending myself against Jack so I was addressing everything that he was saying. Could it be that you didn't like my tone instead? I got spicy with Jack because I felt like I was being unfairly accused to the point that he seemed bad. That might have made me seem anxious - actually I was angry and frustrated.

I was reminded in my look-back that you were suspicious of Long Con. You didn't vote for him though. Are you still suspicious of him today?

I want to give sable a little time to post.

sig, however, is in my scope.

...but I feel like there has to be someone or two people who have been pushing us down the mis-lynch road. Why do I still have three votes for instance?

I guess how you ended the interaction, and when the lynch on Drago started taking some steam you seemed to take a backseat. What frustrated you about his push? Also do you suspect him because of it?

I was, still am. I had my vote on him before Drago, I believe. I started this phase on you 'cause I felt stronger about that EoD impression I got and its more recent.

What frustrated me about Jack's push was for one, my perception that he wasn't listening to me. He hated my Creature vote but when I showed him where I had talked about Creature twice he didn't let it go. He instead said that my vote post didn't have enough information, yet he never asked me for more information. People here vote without giving ANY information for Pete's sake. He also said he didn't believe I was suspicious of Creature or Drago which is a state of mind and I never did quite understand why he held that opinion. And then there was the fact that he did this to me in another game, tunneled me like crazy and he was bad that game. It felt exactly like I felt back then. Off the top of my head those were the main reasons I was frustrated with him. And I did think he was bad because imo his suspicions were not well founded and that's what he did to me before when he was bad.

With all that said though he did acknowledge today that he did not perceive me the same as he did yesterday and even argued a bit with Long Con about it. His vote remains on me but I'm not sure why though I'm no longer angry or frustrated. I feel vindicated, and if I do get lynched I don't think anyone can say I didn't fight hard enough or I quit trying to solve the game. You won't be happy if that happens if you're a civ but at least no one can say those things. Is Jack bad? I really don't know, it seemed that way yesterday but I wouldn't vote for him today unless something came to the forefront that I considered excellent evidence.

Will I find the reasons you suspected Long Con, or still do, in your iso?

novaselinenever wrote: ↑Fri Aug 02, 2019 5:49 pm Does anyone have an impression of Sprit? I legit can't remember anything from him lol

The only thing I know is he has stood up for me throughout this ordeal. He has done the same for Long Con. I don't know the reasons.

novaselinenever wrote: ↑Fri Aug 02, 2019 6:34 pm How about we try this?

[VOTE: Dom] aubergine

His vote is still on Mac and he said earlier he didn't see what I was talking about. I'm pretty bad at figuring out something like that and I could see it without anyone telling me to look at it. Dom is much smarter than me.

So I will join you in a Dom vote.

[VOTE: Dom] aubergine

[mention]MacDougall[/mention] what about you?

I'm getting a little worried now about why Dom is so sure Mac is bad, even with what we see in Mac's EOD from yesterday. I need to change my vote so I'm not in a 3 way tie so I'll vote LC with nova and Mac.

[mention]Dom[/mention] if you're right about Mac please don't get upset. We're just dumb in that case or you know something we don't. I like you playing.

[VOTE: LC] aubergine

novaselinenever wrote: ↑Fri Aug 02, 2019 7:37 pm Although I think you're good, caught a glimpse of something that tipped the balance the other way

What did you see?

Sorry guys I had to eat.

Mac, are you saying you're sure Dom is town?

There is nothing I see that keeps sprityo and LC from being bad together.

Yes I did give an example of a game where Jack was bad and I was civ and he tunneled me like crazy. I can't remember how long that lasted though, I don't think it was 3 days - I'll look back and see if I can find the game.

Nova, I'm turning over those 4 names in my mind. It is hard for me to accept that either Mac or Rej has to be bad - maybe I just don't want to believe it. For now LC seems the worst to me but still, even if he is bad there have to be more in that group that are bad.

linki with [mention]MacDougall[/mention] - maybe, that would explain why sprit stood up for me and was so certain.

sabie12 wrote: ↑Fri Aug 02, 2019 8:44 pm Where did everyone go? Am I reading the rules right that since nova and dom went over the post limit they start the day with votes regardless? Unless they had some way to circumvent that.

I totally missed that - where do you see it? I see the rule but where do you see that they went over? Also, I am multitasking.

Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 06, 2019 5:25 pm Omg how did Juliets not shoot me?

It is my greatest regret but at the time it seemed a little selfish. But I KNEW I just KNEW you were bad because of your tunneling which is EXACTLY what you did in that other game.

And beyond you I just had no idea who was really bad and was afraid I would put us in an even worse position than we were already in.

What I want to know is how the hell Mac got lynched. I peaked in and saw that and just shook my head and left so I didn't read back. And I haven't looked at the roles but was Dom the insane cop?

Congrats baddies, and nova by the way I will know bad nova next time a see one. But you all played this one really well.

Also bad guys why did you kill me? There was still suspicion that Jack had created.

I think Dom got a red peek without realizing he was insane. He left a vote there and the mafia dog piled at eod.

Ohhhhh so he was the insane cop. No wonder he was so convinced. Because I'm dumb it didn't occur to me that that's what happened until the night where I was killed.

We had role cooped Nova and figured out who Mac was.

That left a vig and a joat (with a protection and double vote) as the powers that could stop us.

Dom would have shot Mac if he was the vig or maybe voted Mac if he was the joat.

Sig was basically inactive.

Between you and Sabie, figured you’d be harder to lynch and more likely to be holding the double vote for lylo.

Figured I’d already be dead if you were the vig tbh.

Live and learn. Next time I will do it. But seriously you guys did a great job.

But I wasn't bad this game lol.

Well damn. I must have misread something. So ok I still don't know the "bad" nova. I'm into the wine tonight so I could have easily misunderstood.

JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Wed Aug 07, 2019 2:45 pm Hey players! Let's get some feedback.

1. How did you feel about playing in a game with a posting limit like this?

2. Did you feel 45 posts was a decent limit, or would you make it more/less restrictive?

3. If [Light Game] became a unique game type, could you see yourself signing up for those games consistently?

1. My gut feel before I started was that 45 was a lot of posts. I still felt that way while we played but luckily I don't think anyone posted that much.

2. I'm in favor of what someone else mentioned (maybe you) to make the limit a round number. Also, I like the idea of ratcheting down the post limit but lifting it an hour before EOD.

3. Yes, I would play games with this concept. Like most people I have work and leg rehab and other things going on and can't keep up with a ton of posts which in turn causes me not to enjoy the game.

Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Sat Aug 10, 2019 4:56 pm Two games starting at the same time and often having corresponding day phases did hurt participation and solving somewhat.

Not to mention that many of us were playing in both games so opportunities for confusion abounded.
