I have not. I had to host. I'm going to take five and then make that decision.

ok thanks.

Epignosis who are you leaning toward for a vote tonight? And why unless you've already said.

That also answered my question.

Glorfindel, have you finished your response to G-Man? He had a lot of points.

I have no idea what to do now. sig has convinced me to back off him at the moment and I can't go to Lorab as a second choice. G-Man's case was pretty good but I need to see Glorfindel's response.

sig here is the question I put out this afternoon. If you answered it tell me so and I'll look at your posts but I've been watching and haven't seen an answer go by.

juliets wrote:sig, this has been bugging me for a while now and I need to ask you about it. A while back you posted two posts in a row. The first said:

sig wrote:I don't think the humans need to kill all the cylons
and then you said

sig wrote:I think we should lynch them. :P

starting with Epi a cylon who is outed.
So this seems to say "all cylons are not bad"
and then say "but I think we should lynch them starting with Epi who is a cylon".

Is that what these two posts mean? Because if so I'm confused. I'm thinking I may have misread it though.

ok, I will go back to deciding who I'm going to vote for. I'm not at all happy with sig's attitude towards epi and he hasn't answered the question I put out there this afternoon and I have a bad gut feeling so he may be my vote today. He also didn't see anything bad in nutella. I want to see what G-Man has to say about Glorfindel but I can't say I have noticed anything I would consider bad. I could have easily missed something though. For those who think sig is town what are you seeing?

linki

Does anyone have a handle on our sorties like when we are supposed to send them out and who is in line to do it? I'm not trying to point my finger at anyone and say "you're responsible" I'm just trying to see where we are. I have no idea when the next sortie should go and what area we are targeting.

G-Man wrote:Aw crapweasels, we missed it. And I see JJJ may have flubbed his too.

HOST: are sortie calls due at exactly six-hour intervals or must they simply be at least six hours apart?

I guess we'll find out if we get results for JJJ's sortie. This feels like it shouldn't be such a difficult thing to keep track of.

Who was it that used to say crapweasels? I can't remember.

G-Man, here's what was said about it when the sorties were introduced: Any person may authorise a mission, noting the 'one every six hours limit'.

Since its called a limit I believe the sorties do not have to be every six hours on the dot, they must simply be six hours apart. So if someone sends a sortie 7 hours from the last one it will count. The only thing we have to do is adjust the time for the next sorties to take place. It makes it easier if everyone posts on the minute but it's not necessary. Anyway, thats my read on it.

sig, this has been bugging me for a while now and I need to ask you about it. A while back you posted two posts in a row. The first said:

I have a question for those who find Lorab suspicious enough for a vote. I understand that you think Lorab might have been trying to save nutella by voting Long Con but what other evidence is there that points to her being bad?

oops those tags are screwed up on that post. Sorry JJJ!

Glorfindel wrote:What about sig's posts do you like?
I didn't actually say that I 'liked' his posts my friend LOL! The thing is, I've played enough games with him now at this site and others to have a pretty good sense of when he's good and when he's not. He did make some comments early on that piqued my interest but they were (in my assessment) indicative of a 'disconnection' with much of the discussion that had been going on here. Sig has made no secret of the fact of his heavy study/assignment workload at the moment which I am willing to accept as a genuine explanation for those comments.

Could you please share an example of one of sig's posts that you feel fits this description?[/quote]

So say we all (just in case, I haven't gotten back to where I left off)

JJJ I didn't remember anything about sig having a heavy workload, study and assignments, so I went back through his posts to find out what you were talking about here. I found two references: one about writing a paper which he mentioned casually but I didn't see any language about it being a hard paper or taking a lot of his time or anything of the kind. The second reference was just the fact that the paper was done. Again, no mention about how hard it was or any other thing that he was working on for school. I did not get the impression he was heavily burdened from those two posts. Then, after you made this comment, he pops up and says the most he has ever said about his studies, i.e., that he was done with the second draft of his paper and he should finish it soon and be able to participate more. So I'm curious - where did you get the idea that he had a heavy study/assignment workload? Is there a post that I missed where he talked about having a heavy workload? Always possible, I was interrupted several times going through his posts.

SVS those are some good points about Long Con that I hadn't thought of. I have been considering him a civ all this time but your post convinces me to take a second look.

S~V~S wrote:When Epi was then lynched & revealed, in retrospect, I thought that maybe he WANTED to be lynched becasue he knew he would come back & be revealed a friendly Cylon
As of this point in time I believe Epi to be a town friendly cylon. I'm having difficulty with suspicions though. Nobody is standing out. I'm going to read nutella to see if I can buy JJJ's case. Besides JJJ with nutella has anyone else got a strong feeling about anyone? (OA I saw your suspicion of LC and someone else - I'm going into your posts to refresh myself on the "why" of your suspicions.)

juliets wrote:I want to hear what nutella has to say about JJJ's and others points before I make up my mind.

juliets wrote:After reading all the opinions about LC I have come to believe he is good, whatever that means in this game. Now I have to decide about nutella. I feel sure as I've said before that Epi is good so that leaves me kind of suspicious of sig who seems certain Epi is bad and not willing to consider the info from the show lore.

juliets wrote:I'd like to give nutella the botd for one more day but she ends up at the top of the list to get my vote today. I also considered LC (no longer considering), Marmot (decided his antics did not necessarily mean he was bad), DFaraday (decided to give him another day to join in) and sig (his latest posts convinced me not to vote him) but rejected them for different reasons.

Vote: nutella
juliets repeatedly acknowledged my case against nutella, but did not take a stance either way. On two occasions she said she wanted to hear nutella's rebuttals first before making her decision, which is fair enough. However, it must be noted that after nutella gave her replies (multiple substantive replies), juliets never said anything further about it. I cannot know how juliets felt about nutella in light of those replies, and in the second last post spoilered here (highlighted portion), it's clear that juliets herself wasn't ready to take a stance.

In the last post the stance comes, but without a stated reason. She placed her vote for nutella.

I think there's legitimate bus potential in this interaction. I suspect juliets more than I did before.

I had a hard time making a decision about nutella. On the one hand was JJJ's case and on the other hand were her rebuttals. I ended up coming to her by process of elimination. Also I did not want to see LC go as I didn't see him as a baddie and nutella was the place to vote to make sure that didn't happen. I see how you could suspect a bus but it wasn't. I'm not a teammate of nutella and was happy to see her gone.

Thanks DF for answering my question. I need to look more at that LC voting myself.

Geez MM I was having a hell of a time trying to fix that. Thank you for doing that.

I still screwed up the dAMN matrix. B4 is colored but B5 is not, and B4 is colored red. give me a minute to make this correction. This is frustrating and I'm sorry.

It looks right to the best of my ability but please double check.
Oopws forgot to add SUCCESS to scotty's - it is corrected now.

We've steered clear of the black hole, so we should be back on 6 hour intervals, right?

Scotty submitted his at 12:04 am. I submitted mine ta 12:00 pm, which is way beyond the 6 hour interval, so should be accepted I think.

Oh I see - nobody submitted the 6:00 ish am sortie. That's why I was confused - somehow I thought that got submitted. Thanks MM.

I'm interested to hear anything DFaraday has to say. It's past time for him to have joined in the discussion. Who do you suspect at this time DF?

If Scotty's sortie was accepted at :04 should the rest of our sorties be at :04? :00 would be 4 minutes too early would it not?

so say we all! (I dont think that needs to be said but I'm not taking chances).

indiglo boo hoo! It was so fun to play with you again - you're as good as I remember.

yay for the successful sortie and no death!

I agree with Long Con G-Man, just wing it. With one ship taking up one cell it doesn't seem like working on a pattern would make any difference.

It looks like my travel day may change to tomorrow.

Just a reminder I will be traveling today all day so not online.

Lorab you have it right about the :34 times. I just woke up from a nap and am confusing you.

lol linkie. Lorab, no the times are now at 12:34 pm and 12:34 am

Lorab your sortie today has been cancelled. You'll understand when you catch up.

ObscureAllure wrote:1) Matt will probably be my next vote. He and Nutella went back and forth about the zebra thing with me (despite it not having anything to do with this game.) Much of what he's brought against people isn't even gameplay. And he's trying desperately to distance himself from her (must be an RMer who said scum!) and is now saying people I think are townies are bad. Mark my words, the guy is bad.

2) is Vomp always this off topic? That and his self vote are odd

As to #2, OA I haven't played a lot with Vomps but when I have he is always this off-topic and a self vote is not odd for him at all.

I came to the thread so ready to say "so say we all" but it wasn't needed.

yay we got a cylon that I think really was a bad guy (or girl). See you in the next game nutella and happy graduation!

indiglo I have a travel day tomorrow so I will be unable to send a sortie. I'm not sure about the next day (the 14th) yet but i will keep you posted.

I'd like to give nutella the botd for one more day but she ends up at the top of the list to get my vote today. I also considered LC (no longer considering), Marmot (decided his antics did not necessarily mean he was bad), DFaraday (decided to give him another day to join in) and sig (his latest posts convinced me not to vote him) but rejected them for different reasons.

Vote: nutella

After reading all the opinions about LC I have come to believe he is good, whatever that means in this game. Now I have to decide about nutella. I feel sure as I've said before that Epi is good so that leaves me kind of suspicious of sig who seems certain Epi is bad and not willing to consider the info from the show lore.

Lorab you can certainly take my place tomorrow for the sortie. I have gotten to do several of them and I know your schedule is so tight it's hard to fit them in. So just let me know.

Epi, do you not think Metalmarsh is showing any baddie tendencies? He's on my list for a potential vote tonight. Who do you see as a viable candidate for today (color me embarrassed if you just said it somewhere).

Welcome Dr. Wilgy!

ok everyone its done. Thank you for holding posts.

Send sortie to B3

just fyi i am here. I'm going to ask that everyone stop posting at 5:45 so I can get my message ready and be able to post at 5:49 on the dot. Then resume posting after i post the sortie. Thank you for those who help me out with this.

Metalmarsh have you made any reads on people? If not, could you do so now? I could have just forgotten if you did.

Ok, I'm still hoping to hear more from LC before EoD... however, my EoD will come in 2.5-3 hours, and real EoD will be later than that, so I am resigned to realizing that I may not hear from him by my EoD.

I can also understand the nutella votes, and...

SW I agree with you that quick switch vote from Zeebs doesn't sit well. That was super weird, which is why I asked her why she voted so quick... but no response, so either she didn't see my question or something...

or maybe she doesnt want to answer though I'm inclined to give her more time. I agree that the quick switch vote was odd.

yeah i think i just post it again at 5:49 - no harm done i dont think.

indiglo wrote:@ G-Man - Good notes, thanks for sharing those. I don't remember MM's playstyle at all (assuming we've played together much, which I don't remember either, how sad) so is this pretty typical for MM? Or is he usually a more serious player?
A few months have passed since I last played a game with him openly (was he in EST Heist?) and I'm bad at tracking metas. I know he's goofy but I'm feeling disarmed by him so far.

I remember him as being goofy but it seems like I could see reasons for his vote. I don't see a reason for a zebra vote.

Also GMan thanks for the reads.

Matt has brought up B3 as a target for my 5:49 sortie ( I had suggested B6 earlier). I think his suggestion comes from a theory he had earlier in the game but I can't quite recall what it is. I am starting to lean civ on Matt so I don't mind satisfying his urge to see that sector covered. Any thoughts on this?

Indi I can do the next 5:49 pm (not today, I already have that, but tomorrow) unless someone else really wants to do it.

I'm ready for opinions on what cell I should hit on my 5:49 sortie. Given G-Mans sector idea and Scotty's border idea I'm thinking about going for B6. Any other ideas or thoughts? Would you rather I not go B6 for some reason?

ObscureAllure wrote:Fine - I can't link to all the posts because I'm not searching on my phone. So bear with me.

I think long con is bad. I've seen play from him this game that I would never have expected from the LC I used to know. He has seemed panicked multiple times and his whole jumping in thing felt like a save, with his "oh look how much of a funny asshole I am" as a save. Again, I'm not searching on my
Phone for posts to support this right now. He also hinted to wanting to try and lynch Epi again when I believe Epi to be town and we knew he'd just be resurrected anyway. And I know I'm an idiot for mentioning it because if there's one thing that man can do, it's turn a whole mob against someone who suspects him in two seconds flat with no evidence.

I think there's a possibility that Lorab and Nutella are bad, but again not a lot of evidence. Just felt like their comments were BTSCish.

I admit that Matt's weird thing pinged me, but what was weirder was that one or two people afterwards were like "yeah! What he said!" Felt very much like teammates trying to support his weird accusation (which I still don't get what he was actually trying to accuse me of?!) it might have been Juliet? Don't remember now and too lazy to search on this thing.

Already said why Polo, and added to that he's been trying to base suspicion using Goldens posts after golden said twice they were Jay's for story purposes.
I don't agree with your opinions, but I buy that these opinions are genuine.

OA I don't remember supporting any comments about you being weird or bad. So far my read on you is neutral. Please find the post you are talking about it when you are somewhere off of your cell phone.
