My guy. Didn't know you were here until I signed up.

Should be an interesting game.

What's up my man?

Yep, kind of exciting to play a game with no flip whatsoever lol.

I was promised a supatown Sprityo. I have not received one.

nutella wrote: ↑Wed Apr 10, 2019 8:41 pm ok I've decided I like nova, he's clearly putting in what looks to me like a genuine effort. I think I like daisy and juliets for now but less sure. Don't get great vibes from Luna, and I expect more from Epi so I could vote for one of those two. Are votes changeable?

They are. Talk to me about Luna.

Oh man, it took me ages to catch up. Thought it would never end.

Exchanges between Luna and I think it was nova? Stood out to me yesterday, but will reread this afternoon/evening more carefully before I decide on my vote.

Feeling good about juliets so far.

How did it stand out? Also any thoughts on other players not named Juliets?

Generally I like the look of how he’s playing. I can see civ reasoning for his behavior thus far but I don’t feel like it’d be prudent to discuss it exactly. Me asking for an example of his suspicion is not about whether or not I think he looks good so much as whether or not I agree with his suspicion. Entertaining a suspicion doesn’t mean voting for her, it just means “I’m listening.”

But he hasn’t said anything else really to go anywhere with it, so whatever. And I’ve liked what I’ve seen from Juliets since then too, so in lack of anything from him that changes my mind I wouldn’t be voting her today.

What behavior/reasoning of his stroke you as Town?

Feels like that's a whole lot of words to not say much lol.

So you're saying one of you and Mac are bad? Or both

Haven't heard much from Sabie

sabie12 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2019 3:35 pm So out of the options of people who have votes its mac or Luna. Since we need a majority vote its better if we can come to an agreement. Mac has 3 posts that basically are him claiming he is civ and telling me that his weird exchange with nova doesn't mean anything then he voted for me. Regardless of the vote being for me I find it odd that he's so blah and uninvolved.
Luna mostly has been talking about whether people should role claim which I feel like it's been established role claims are pretty sketchy in this set up.

I guess I'm going to vote mac at the moment. His only reason voting me is that I questioned him because I thought the exchange between him and nova was a little weird. Like both assuming they know what alignment the other is. If that's just a joke or whatever why not just say that?
I have an appointment so may not be around for a little bit. Willing to listen to other cases if something comes up.

What did you find weird about the exchange between Mac and I?

You're mostly narrating what Luna has done so far, I'd rather hear your thoughts about her.

Lunalee wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2019 4:08 pm My "caught-up" opinions on everyone:

Spacedaisy - despite the "weird vibe" popular opinion on spacedaisy, I actually think she looks town. mechanics posts can be town, and I like that she wrote all that out while learning the roles (I will read it eventually, promise).
novaselinenever - I think nova is winning the "highest poster" award. His questions and interactions look town to me.
nutella - is trying to stay active (even while in Japan), and is voting me, so she's either town, or trying really hard to correct her scum meta of never suspecting me.
juliets - looks town (as always). She also paid a lot of attention to Daisy's "long" post, but I don't know if she actually read or responded to it.
Muriel - still absent?
jackofhearts2005 - is just casually throwing out opinions and suspects, but none of them feel serious yet.
sabie12 - looks like typical sabie, but also is "no u" voting suspecting mac
muugen - jumped in late and made a "catch-up" post which honestly just seems to parrot the opinions of the thread.
sprityo - is not quite ready to "supatown" or contribute too much yet.
Neverwhere - looks like they are struggling to find something to contribute while at the same time acknowledging they are not really contributing
Epignosis - lazy poster, and currently suspects juliets because she "looks like she did in Addams family mafia when she was scum"
Macdougall - in only three posts he both claims to not be a witch and know that nova is also not a witch, and shoo sabie off for questioning it.

Conclusion: [VOTE: lynch Macdougall] aubergine, [VOTE: Lunalee gets Butt Stallion!] aubergine (despite some of you looking town, I'd still rather have it)

Rainbow this list please. I like shiny colors

Why are you putting weird vibe in quotation mark? lol

The quotation marks on none quotes are weirding me out.

Lunalee wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2019 4:10 pm also, forgot to note but my list is ordered from "most town vibe" at the top to "least town vibe" at the bottom.

Oh I missed this, so no need for the rainbow

What do you think about Epi's suspicion of Juliets? Anything else on Epi than "lazy"?

Some writers put quotes around words they want to distance themselves from. Quotation marks used this way are commonly called scare quotes or shudder quotes. It’s a way of implying that you’re using a term in an unusual way or that you don’t necessarily approve of it:

Example: This article was written by a “professional” writer.

Do you not approve of the terms highest poster and supatown? Or are you mocking us (Spriyo and I)?

I'm familiar with scare quotes but I'm weirded out by your use of them. Both the targeted terms and the number lol.

Thanks for the link though!

Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2019 4:48 pm I’d lynch Luna, Juliets and maybe Sprityo.

That is, I have no real desire to lynch Mac.

What's up with Juliets and Sprit?

Mac is bad, isn't he?

I want to lynch so many people lol.

Are you kidding or serious? Because if you are serious please straighten me out.

I'm just thinking out loud lol. It's a question mark, that said I have no reason to town read him and his recent posts feel off.

How about we lynch Nutella and let her enjoy her trip in peace?

Luna's suspicions are uninspiring. Feels like she's waving on the chaos of this EoD, acting as a mediator to bring us all together towards 1 target that isn't her lol.

What's up with Juliets and Sprit?
Juliets does feel like her Adams Family self. I don’t like Sprityo saying he’s gonna supatown and then being like “well not yet.”
What do you see that you saw in Addams family?
Clarifying questions that don't go anywhere.

Huh what? How that question go nowhere?

It's a pretty fair question, and when someone claims to see/feel similarities they have to elaborate on that, otherwise some might think they're full of shit

We have an hour left. I could lynch amongst Luna, Nutella, Mac and Sabie.

Player salad

Isn't a Taco a sandwich?

Why is Jack's vote still on Mac when he doesn't suspect him, and instead suspects Luna?

Neverwhere wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2019 6:23 pm Damn, I wrote a post and went back to look and it got deleted.

Okay, I feel alright about Daisy and juliets for the moment. They seem genuine to me.

Nova and Luna pinged me this morning just because of their back and forth about game mechanics, but I don't really feel confident in game mechanics yet, so I'm not sure what to make of that.

Not sure how I feel about Epi. I get he's busy, but he seems defensive.

I'm not sure I understand the Nutella suggestion? Willing to give t hem and the monkeys the benefit of the doubt.

Unsure of Mac.

I'd go with Luna, Mac, Epi as my three.

What pinged you about it? Also how exactly were you pinged about it? It's an exchange, we're two people, are we both bad?

I think it was Lunas supposed sarcasm about role claiming.

So where did I (Nova) ping you?

Hardly "F-ing it," given the context.

Everyone voting for Luna is here, so if they switch we get 7 on Mac.

We can get 7 on Luna if she self-vote and Sabie switch

If Epi isn't selfish, we can get 7 on both without needing a self-vote.

There he goes lol

I'm on Mac. Need two to hammer.

I don't think we can hammer Luna 'cause everyone online is already voting her, so with me and Epi it's 6.

Oh never mind.

Seriously, I think being explicitly open to multiple lynches is a better town strategy in maj games. Harder to cfd (is hot potato a think we are saying now?) and much harder to personally push a lynch. Half of old HCRealms days had the lynch determined hours and hours before eod. The other half were mostly no lynches. Also eod is timed between when I pick up the kids and put them down for bed, which is the worst time for me.

What I’m saying is “let’s individually think of the differences between how scum and town will say things similar to Jay’s player salad because I am going to lean on doing exactly that like it’s Bill Withers.”
As someone not in the know, could you please explain all mafia references for those of us who may not know?

Player salad - "I am willing to lynch X, Y, Z, or maybe W" quoted from the authority on salad buffets itself. Basically citing a bunch of player you're ok with lynching without a clear indication amongst them.

CFD - Suddenly changing votes near the end of the phase to someone that wasn't really amongst the leading wagons and getting them lynched.

Yeah I agree, especially when the drive to lynch amongst the named group is there, and there is an indication to a clear preferred option.

Majority sucks
