"Contrived possibly"? What are you trying to say there?

It means that I think it is forced and it makes me distrustful of you.

Finally. caught up. So I have been thinking about bandwagonry. Here are the last consecutive votes on FZ. Spacedaisy (23), Leamiteo (24), DisgruntledPorcupine (25), reywaS (26) 31% THe reasons for this could be: 1. Members of the second goblin team trying to protect either K4J or Elohcin 2. Members ...

Checking in quickly. I still haven't read a thing since the lynch post. I have a few errands to run and loose ends to tie up before I go out of town for the weekend, then I'll read!

Here to check in but still have not caught up. Sheesh, you people are talkative when it's night time! I myself am a diurnal creature. I had a super awesome day at work today and am currently super irritable. I'm gonna cool off for a bit and then try to read through the thread. In the words of Arnold...

I haven't caught up on the several pages since the lynch post but have to vote here before my lunch break is up. I don't feel good about either option. Why didn't I bring rope?! :overreact: Be swept away by the river or potentially lost/separated from the group/attacked? I think I'll take my chances...

Boooo yaaahhh! So glad I went with my gut!

Going with my gut. *votes FZ*

Oh my word, I just got caught up and have 6 min to vote...Epi's vote and reasoning behind it make me less secure about where I said I would place my vote, but I really don't have a good feeling about FZ...gah...I'm waffling.

@Mongoose :smile: :phew: I am at work and have to make this quick! I had a brief break and was able to skim through quickly. I don't know if I'll be able to do a whole lot of reading before the lynch vote, but I have several people on my watch list as of right now. Some are just gut feelings and som...

Yes, but not because of the lynch chance, but because it tips his hand (and made some of us infer they were teamies). I don't feel this way at all, and it makes me distrustful of you, making assumptions that seem to be based off of huge leaps. Therefore, you have my :eye: . Oh jeez, it wasn't an as...

At this point reading through, I just don't get a good vibe from FZ; I'm going to re-read some stuff, collect thoughts and hopefully post sooner rather than later. For now I desperately need sleep. Night!

Hey llama, I do think I see another possibility in your hypothesis about the baddies missing their actions. If no one ends up being insanified today (another role on the odd team), it could offer a little more proof. What does insanified mean anyway? What I was trying to posit was that Daisy didn't...

Oh my gosh, so many pages. I still have like 3 to go through, but I have had this blasted tab open forever, and since I cannot play at work except for my 30 min lunch break, have not been able to collect all my thoughts and do not want to be blamed for being silent. K sooo, that being said sorry if ...

Wow, great call on MP there! :) Second game in a row I've seen a baddie die on day one and that hardly ever happens usually. I always forget to pack something, and it's usually something really important and super obvious like my phone charger. I once packed my xbox to go to uni but forgot to pack ...

Yeeeesss! Woohoo! Baddie on the first day. Great job, MP reading extraordinaires. I can tell you are super bummed about it, MP. :/ I'm sorry to see the sock go, but not the baddie role! I would definitely not think to bring a rope. Who says to herself, "Oh yeah, mental note! Do not forget the r...

Alright kids, I gotta head out. I have stuff to accomplish before this wedding!

I have no pings, I never do early on. (And by ever I mean this is my third game on this site

)

votes Vompatti

I randomized. I know you don't like it Daisy! Don't judge me!

Peace out!

Leamiteo, the "INH thing" refers to this post: I may vote for the person with the most "filler" posts - posts that are only tangentially or not at all related to the thread. Ok, I can see some problems with this. What denominates "filler"? Is it OT posts? What about po...

Eh, I really just don't like an INH vote. If he is bad, I know this could come back to haunt me, but out of anyone in the game right now my gut is most likely to say he isn't bad, to be quite frank. I am seeing a very sincere INH, not a nefarious (how's that, CBK?) one. Careful, the "nefarious...

I don't understand why you would expect an aggressive Dom on Day 1? Is he normally aggressive on Day 1? I am more inclined to pay attention to the INH thing personally (I think it was INH anyway, I just did the fastest catch up read ever, lol)I was not reading Juliet's as " mean spirited"...

linki: leamyconstant, if you come visit me some weekend you may see him again before he moves... :hugs: Also, we need a smiley with batting eyelashes on this site.... I'm really hoping the 4th of July weekend works for me to make a trip down! Fingers crossed! We could play ticket to ride!!! :D And ...

MP is now, imo, posting much ore as I am accustomed. No HUGE posts yet though. :ponder: :biggrin: Hey now, there is plenty of time for the huge posts to develop! Let's not encourage the bogging down the thread just yet. ;) We love you, MP! :p Indeed, just give it time. :feb: Though actually, betwee...

Where the heck is Flyin' High? I don't know this person...

Hi there, FH! Wherever you are

We love you, MP!

Posts like these...what is their purpose? What are they meant to accomplish? 1. It expresses a suspicion but an unwillingness to act on it. 2. It may be enough of an impetus for others to vote that way, so that a. if Boogs (or whoever) is lynched and is bad, the person posting this could say, "...

I don't understand how people feel "pinged" on day 0 or day 1, but I'm a newb. Those experienced players have a leg up of knowing play styles and tactics of their mafia buddies. I don't have any leanings at this point, but it is extremely early. I will have to vote in the next few hours. I...

Oh, one more thing! I'm going to vote for MP based on how many times he uses the word nefarious throughout this game.

Usually in big games like these, I sit back and watch for the first few cycles, and then presumably if I'm not eliminated, I start posting more and more. I like to get an idea of the dynamic of the game before I completely dive in. That being said, I agree with FZ. To me it looked like MP was just ...

Hi all, I'm so pumped to be playing in this game with you all!!!! RL has been a whirlwind - I just got back in the country, this was my first week back to work, plus I had a move added in there. I have to do a lot of reading, but couldn't bring myself to do it on a gorgeous Friday afternoon! I'll do...

Yay, school's out and I can play mafia! I'm in.

Aww, Daisy! I just saw the heading on the poll.

I love manatees.

Thanks for the memories!

It was only a matter of time. I had a feeling I would get burninated.

Yay! Got the head lazer!

Or you're bad....

Still reading from where I left off, blah blah blah, baddies trying to hide, I think SVS is a teammate of borok since she is defending his nonsense or complete ignorance. Either way.

Also, the first thing I did when I logged on was vote borok.

I'm voting borok, that is if I live through the night. I fear he may be the sk. If I die, remember these last words!

Resistance is futile.

^ Those posts go all the way back to August 8th.

@ CBK and Leam - please don't feel left out by any of the "well they usually play like this talk" with enough games, you'll be doing it too...unfortunately. I actually quite enjoy reading your perspective (as well as BDH's) because here's the down side to "well...this always happens ...

Eeep! One more!

*votes Indi*

OK, I admit I posted the above two as I was reading. Sorry for the series of posts.

I may vote for Indi since voting for borok would be a throwaway. Why did everyone vote so early?

My only other suspicions right now are: BDH - not based on much other than he seems to have been against me for the whole game, changing his reasons every day/night period. A Person - just simply because he never posts... like, ever, but more so since things have been heating up a bit, so maybe he'...

Also, Borok, I very publically told everyone why I'd be scarce... I'm just really dumb and unobservant k I'm leaning toward tossing a vote in the direction of borokkuei. He has been evasive or dismissive like this throughout the thread. I am not buying it and it feel good about voting for him for t...

Where the heck is AP? I'm all packed and set to move into my new apartment at 2pm. Thanks for bearing with me through my spotty presence here in the thread. I still have my eye on Dom and borokkuei. Because the latter voted for the former, I don't know if I want to follow along and vote Dom. I don'...

Yay yay yay! :yay: Way to go team civvie! Just a head's up that I'll be in Chicago from Friday night through Saturday late evening then packing and moving on Sunday. I have a lot of stuff do get done in the next few days, so I apologize for popping in, reading, then leaving. I'll contribute when I c...

I am sooooo sorry for missing yet again. Work has been crazy busy and I have not had the frame of mind to vote before work. I usually can vote at lunch but have not been able to get online. Apologies, apologies, apologies to all. Especially you, Daisy! Please don't mod kill me :shark: I would have v...
