Roxy. I may have been bad, but I did keep you alive for a few nights.

(Primarily because it looked like you were really enjoying the game, and I was happy about that).

Awww <3

great fun little game even though I was killed off quickly I always enjoy games by Elo <3

That is bc she gave it to me!

Metalmarsh your maths leave something to be desired.

When did you suddenly start posting statistics MM?
Why did you only do an ISO on BR? Are you trying to keep the focus soley on her?
What up with that?

thellama73 wrote:Boo!

Hedgebaddie is so going down tomorrow.

Oh yes use the strategy that worked so well for you in the last 2 low poster lynches.

Wow that sucks but NOT unexpected, I will be noting who has voted both times in the low poster/inactive civ lynches.

No way. I think you're bad.

Oh yea that reasoning is so spectacular
really, you have not said anything for me to defend. Feels much more like a No u.

Baddie moves are bad.

Nice drive by vote MM.

I am voting llama.

I do not see him getting enough votes to ask a question tbqf.

I am good with a llama lynch today

I think the kills are obv. They are doing them for the wifom, something I often do as a baddie.

thellama73 wrote:Really? No one else? I see I haven't been lynching enough non-participants.

ugh this type of statement makes me not want to play here. I implore everyone to lynch me next.

It also feels like you are slinging mud at BR for bs reasoning imo.

Metalmarsh - yes you pointed to a game where MP was lynched but *you* were not around to help. So how do *you* know it was bc of your self vote? Feels weird that you are taking credit for something that you were not around for.I am suspicious of you bc you are playing different and when asked you point to another game and say "see".

Black Rock - I am not suspicious of BR. She has done nothing to cause my nose to twitch.

Epignosis - iunno. Epi is hard for me to read. I feel like he is not bad and we are just disagreeing on who is worth lynching.

fingersplints - she has given me no reason to suspect her yet.

Golden - his D 1 thing with me about how I treat new or returning players blew my mind bc we have played together since his first game on STV. When he backed off so quickly it really pinged me. I am stil not sure about him but he is not the top of my list.

Hedgeowl - is playing similar to Dr Who. The old sorry I have not been here in time to vote I will read back and give thoughts later type of game. She is here usually right after lynch so she could be sending in her kill iunno but she has def cricked my eyebrow.

Metalmarsh - has said he has stopped self voting bc it could only work on baddies so many times before they catch on but then goes onto to say he has never caught a baddie this way. It reads like he was caught with his hands in the cookie jar (to borrow the phrase from unfurl).

Missing Person - has pretty much been absent and needs to be modkilled tbh. I did not want to vote for him D 1 but I could now if the host is not brave enough to modkill.

Ninja Blooper - feels like she is trying but idk if it is in a good way. I could go either way with her tbh.

thellama - Ricochet raised a most excellent case on him that he basically shrugged off. I think it has merit and could see myself voting for him.

Timmer - feels civ to me this game.

I will catch up and post thoughts during the night.

I am so sorry but I have had car issues to attend to and I really thought I could make it home to vote.

Please accept my apology Elo

FTR I was going to vote MM

Mostly bc I do not feel the way you do about her.

Be honest with me here: Do you ever suspect BR? I can't think of one time you have.

Sure I have - we have played many games together across different sites. Riddle me this - why do you suspect her more than others that made that vote or another?

also Pretty Boy how do you feel about MM now?

Golden - I hear what you are saying but what you accuse Metalmarsh of you are doing to me over this I won't vote for new or returning players.

Dragon- I don't get you list it is a bit wonky imo. Like you posted it to just to post. Some of you reasoning you used to say people were leaning slightly town is the same reasoning you used to say someone was feeling mafia. It felt a lot like mud flinging.

Imma be busy today with a hike and picnic but should be back to post before deadline

Was this the question? Sorry, thought you were joking since I haven't self-voted in a while, though I guess I also haven't played with you in a while.

Self-voting as a strategy to draw out mafia only works so many times before people catch on.

Wat?

This a bizarre response MM. When and how did you ever find a baddie with a self vote day 1? I don't remember that ever happening.

My self-vote helped draw out the emotional responses of MovingPictures in Roger Rabbit Mafia (though I wasn't around to actually help lynch him).

So YOU have never found a baddie with your self vote strategy that you had to give up bc it will only work so long before baddies catch on?
Got it!

aww damn I had a feeling it was gonna be Gman.

As far as Poker Face goes I got nothing!

Christopher Walken, however, is another matter! I need to make a Christopher Walken Mafia!

Fuck the p scores! lol

Dragon - I do not remember you scraping together a list that you say is not completely objective - I do remember you giving thoughts on players with quotey posts and linkys that *was* objective. What you posted in this game is very different than that game.
Sure you change targets everyone does in mafia but that has nothing to do with your mudslinging post imo. I have nothing against how you play (I would even say you are more subdued in this game) what I am noting is this is a very different game than Economics for you.

Your response to me and Epi (and Gman for that matter) feel like a baddie being caught out.

Gman sorry if I sound false perhaps you should reread my posts bc I have not said anything I have not said before in other games.

Seems you want to see me as bad I would like to know why.

Dragon D. Luffy wrote:The whole thing wasn't completely objective, to be honest. I tried to find things in people's posts that could mean something, and then gave my general impression about them. There is logic but there is also the gut feeling element. The whole point was to see if I could throw some points on the wall and see if anyone sticks, than actually making an objective spreadshit of how people are playing.

Spreadshit is right.

Throwing mud to see what sticks is a classic baddie ploy. you even admit yourself that it isn't completely objective lol

The game you have going on here is very different from Economics - it feels as if you are not quite sure where to point bc you *know* wherever you point it will be at a civ.

This response is enough to have earned my vote.

Well thats a bummer bc I wanted to play with Ricochet I was feeling good vibes from him

I wonder if he made someone nervous with his mad mafia skillz

He could have made any of the TH voters quite nervous llama, Gman, Daisy and BR. I got the feeling he was more suspicious of llama and Gman than the girls. But I think we should consider all of them.

I still have not forgotten about Golden and his play Day 1.

No he meant CVS - the pharmacy bc he def needs medication

I am not surprised TH was civ. Lynching non posters Day 1 never bodes well for the town.

I need to catch up but I wanted to mention i am having a friend visit this weekend soi will be very scarce - i will want to spend time with SVS while she is here. And her precious puppy sookie <3

Elohcin wrote:You have one hour to get your votes in.

I am gonna go ahead and put my vote on Golden.

The first game we played together upon his much awaited return I said I would not vote for new or returning players. So that is my usual style. His insinuation that this is something new is a complete fabrication.
He may call this a No u but imo my suspicion holds merit his does not.

linky meh - I still feel good about where my vote is going.

fingersplints wrote:I would have made the same point, and Rox would have agreed with me had I been a bit earlier to the thread. Same discussion different game

I agree with this. I didn't see splints as sucking up to roxy.

I was slightly pinged, however, by the fact roxy appeared to admit that she knew Missing Person isn't actually new but characterises him as new 'because she hasn't played with him before'. I haven't really seen that as part of Roxy's newbie policy before, and its a slightly odd part.

But I do this kind of stuff all the time

There's also the fact that "I don't see the "discussion" coalescing around anyone in particular".

I was expecting you to vote yourself and "test the poll" like your usual MO - I think that is what Epi may have been pointing out.

I am gonna vote for Golden his suspicion of me feels quite forced and has zero merit.

Or

Dragon - bc of the "modkill" statement.

Or

MM for not self voting or posting spammage.

omg I am feeling townie vibes from Timmer

I never get this vibe this early - I may be proven wrong but I feel good about Timmy.

Gman - sarcastic orange would be good.

Dragon D. Luffy wrote:G-Man did not vote, though. Guess he was trying to pressure her.

He has a point though, defeatist posts like this one splints made usually point out to mafia. Townies don't give up that easily.

I have as a townie.

These kind of blanket statements without any back up is silly.

Townies give up as much as baddies do.
It has more to do with rl than whether bad or good.

thellama73 wrote:Also, Missing Person is not a newbie. She played Omerta Mafia. So Roxy's "protecting newbies" stance is mistaken at best, and intentionally misleading at worst.

Um I think you hosted that game so you should remember every one of my 3 posts as I died N 1 I did not remember anything from that game bc I died waaayyy before my time.
In context your arguement holds no water imho.

thellama73 wrote:Also, I'm announcing now that I will vote for Missing Person if there is no avatar by the time I leave for the airport tomorrow.

Is that even a good idea? If Missing Person doesn't put an avatar she's just going to get modkilled, right?

Where did you get that idea?

Addendum:

I didn't? It was just a guess. I've never played a game hosted by Elo so I don't know.

thellama73 wrote:

Dragon D. Luffy wrote:I don't see much point. She is essentially not playing the game. If it stays like that, she is probably just getting replaced for being inactive, or modkilled. Sounds like a waste of a lynch.

She's not going to get modkilled, because Eloh doesn't do those things. She might get replaced, but that doesn't make her more likely to be good. It's only a waste of a lynch if she is not mafia. Right now, we can't find out whether she is mafia or not, because she has robbed us of our only way of doing so by not having an avatar. Seems like the best option to me.

I just think going after the inactives is a cheap way of making a vote. Because it's essentially a guess, and one that is more likely to get a townie lynched than otherwise. At least with active players it's possible to analyse their posts or something.

If she puts an avatar or gets replaced, we'll then be able to ask questions about her avatar. Problem solved.

I'm more suspicious of people who try to direct the game's attention into lynching inactives.

I agree with Dragon inre: the bolded portion. It is an easy way out of taking responsilbility for his own vote. He can later just say "Golly I guess he should have gotten an avaatar and proved he wants to play. My vote was his fault omg!"

thellama wrote:Baseless assertion, backed by zero evidence. Why is lynching an inactive more likely to get a townie than lynching an active player? Of course, lynching any player is more likely to get a townie than a baddie, because there are more townies than baddies, but the idea that an inactive is less likely to be bad than anyone else is simply untrue

Do you have proof to back up your certainty?

Missing Person wrote:

fingersplints wrote:Yay game. I don't plan on voting MP for not having an avatar.

This seems odd.

Why this leap to get on Roxy's good side?

I think the better line would be just simply not vote for me. Announcing it looks like a clamor for attention.

Looks scummy.

She does not have to leap to get on my good side - ever lol
If she had came in here first she would have said the same thing I did and you would thn have been suspicious of me lol

If that is how we will be hunting baddies probably for the best to get rid of me now anyways because I will never agree that that is a good way to go about it

Glad you're okay with getting lynched early. My plan is to vote out the people who are better looking than me. Considering that everyone is better looking than me, I'm glad somebody stepped forward and volunteered to go first. It makes my Day 1 decision that much easier.

*votes splints*

Looks like I may be voting Gman bc of his vote and his reasoning. It feels very baddie-ish.

But we have time and someone could do something worse.
