I don't.

Cool.

I think the "we" was suspicious. I was on my way out when I posted that and didn't realize there was a discussion on "they". "They" is less suspicious to me than the "we" was.

Two thumbs up for Enrique.

This I agree with. Mac's painting of TH's "defenders" doesn't read genuine to me. People can't disagree?

You went out of your way to write "we" here.

No I didn't.

I believe that you did. I think you went out of your way to call yourself a civ when the natural way to phrase that sentence would be to refer to civs as "they" but you were worried that someone would find it scummy for you to refer to civilians as that and didn't want to defend from a dumb comment. It's an irksome sentence. At best case scenario it's fluff content that you've created for the purpose of telling us you're a civilian.

Dunno, Sorsha slipped and said "you civs" in GOC and I correctly caught that.

Sorsha wouldn't have been too worried about that on account of her being a rather benign independent in a game where there was already one revealed to the thread that the civilians seemed intent on not lynching. Sorsha is also not Turnip Head. Sorsha probably would have said that if she were a civilian, and the context of the sentences is no doubt different.

Anyway if I'm the only one who scrunched my nose at it I will drop it. I'm not going to get hung up on one sentence.

A few responses:

MacDougall wrote: Lorab's couple of posts had the vibe I commonly find in day 0 baddies as well.

You are wrong about me. And I don't know what you perceive as "baddie" tone, but I don't particularly feel like rehashing the argument of whether or not there are baddie traits. At any rate, I'm not bad, so whatever tone you're reading--it's not me being bad. It's just me being me. A tired and jetlagged me, but me.

MacDougall wrote:Okay Lorab is probably not here but bea appeared to totally ignore the fact that I eyeballed her so that's a point against her.

You are correct--I was not here.

Nerolunar wrote: Im happy that Arkham is the most voted for poll option. The game almost urges us to go there, so Im surprised more people aren´t voting for it.

That is exactly why I'm not voting for it. It seems like too obvious a choice and I know these hosts. The fact that the game is urging us to go there makes me think that we shouldn't go there. *insert it's a trap meme here*

MacDougall wrote:A hypocritical point.

Am I the only one who finds long wall posts almost intentionally designed to not be read? I have copped stick for posting a few replies in a row before but I would be much more willing to read that than one quote mountain post.

This probably could be green, but it's an on topic enough conversation that I'm keeping it black. But it's really a meta-idea.

I think it's largely a mafia culture thing. I'm used to wall posts. Multiple posts in a row look suspicious to me, because my instinct is to feel that they are trying to bump up their post count. I realize that the culture is different elsewhere, so I have learned to mostly overlook it. But walls of text seem completely natural to me, and often seem slightly more civ to me. What I'm learning more and more is that baddies and civs can easily be behind either.

Yes. Why do we have to wait till tomorrow if you don't mind me asking. If it has to do with RL my bad for asking.

Also, why has the hosts voted for the zoo?

God I have missed playing mafia with you and everyone else. Also on that note I know the games that I signed up for in the past I didn't participate or subbed out its because I got into a serious relationship and couldn't figure out how to balance the two. Me and my lady friend have moved into together so it should make balancing the two a lot easier. So my hat goes off to anyone who has a significant other and plays mafia because it's extremely hard if your significant other is like mine and doesn't like cell phones or laptops out while we are hanging out. Lol

Well Golden! That's a nice big glass of WIFOM, mind if I have a sip? Why did you wait until we were in game to let us know about this? You could've mentioned it in the pre game lobby... Er... Maybe you did. Didn't really check but I'm assuming you didn't based upon your posts. Also... Are we hinting at rolls already Golden? *sings* ~Epi's gonna kill you!~

I'd like to go GCPD.
