You're not
You guys might want to take a look at Dom after I'm lynched.

I was just about to ask if anyone had any insights about his behavior from other games. Snow Dog, who are you looking at today? If I subtract AP from the picture I'm really stuck.

Why would they do that?????

She wsn't one of my alternatives.

Right, and absolutely no one found her suspicious.

I guess some did. Did you?

No..... but some definitely did.

Also very surprising that you're still alive...

BigDamnHero wrote:Some if CBK's recent posts did seem kinda wish-washy, IMO, but that didn't make me want to vote for her automatically. Is it really relevant at this point though, Dom? We should really be focusing in on the vote since there can't be more than one or two bad guys left.

My point is that it's a very strange kill choice... who would make that kill choice?

Snow Dog, do you have any insights other than AP?

It focuses on something SVS said as well, which is another part of the theory - that borok read as someone without BTSC. As a new player, if you had absentee teammates, that would fit in my mind, as you would be virtually without BTSC. This is after a reread of AP, so there are a few more pieces of the puzzle I'd like to put together, but that's where I'm currently at.

CBK, I am not sure where your suspicion of me comes from, but I can assure you it is unfounded. Though, being that this is a mafia game - where paranoia must rule, I can also understand it 100%.

Interesting theory. I have wondered about LT, especially due to her absence. I don't think it's her absence that is telling as she hans't been around on RM either.But you could be onto something here.

S~V~S wrote:Like Dom, I know Faraday pretty well. He is ALWAYS blendy, and when he does post it is short, but it generally is insightful, and I totally did not see that here. BUT, that said, that would lead me to think he was bad, not Indy, as Indies generally play like Civs in the thread.

Other than Timmer, my instincts have sucked. I am going to read a few people today, but i don;t think it matters. Although the lynch doesn't end for over 12 hours, and no one is really talking, I am wasting time according to Snow Dog by discussing who else might be or have been the person everyone is accusing me of being.

So I have to vote now as I may not be home by the end of the poll. I don't know what to think of Borok, tbh, but the people I don't trust AT ALL are pushing a lynch of him, and that makes me very tense. So, as I said yesterday (Mafia yesterday, not calendar yesterday), my opinion of some people might change if Bullz came up civ, and he did and it has. But not enough to vote on so early, so gonna vote Faraday.

I am not liking the vague-r than Faraday normal, blendier than usual even for him, quality of his posts.

*Voting Faraday*

Bad move. he is civ.

What makes you think that?

I'm considering voting for him because of his shadiness that I pointed out a couple of posts upward.

BigDamnHero wrote:I have no clue what to make about Bullzeye. I said it earlier that the whole thing about him dying and being brought back gave I thinnk gave him enough space to cruise by for a while, but that has nothing to do about anything specific HE did. It brought up a lot of questions about Desmond who claimed responsibility, but that's it. I'm just not confident enough that Bullzeye is bad to cast a vote for him. I trusted Snow Dog last time and it helped us eliminate one of the bad guy teams so I'm gonna trust him again this round and cast my vote along with his for indiglo.

I was dead on day 2. What exactly did my metaphorical corpse do that caught your attention so badly? You've never actually said.

juliets wrote:Oh no! I totally lost track of what time the lynch was damn. I would not have voted DP though - he had me completely fooled that he was civv. I won't apply that logic that he talks more when he's bad anymore. Thank you to the people that voted him.

I really apologize to both the hostess and my teammates for letting you down. This never happens to me - I get my vote in no matter what. So sorry.

What holiday?

It is Labor Day Weekend - Monday is Labor Day, a national holiday.

juliets wrote:D Faraday, I evidently didnt get a screen cap for the Timmer vote. Who else voted SVS with you, and do you have the order for both the Timmer votes and the SVS boats? Or does anyone have this?

DFaraday wrote:RIP Mata!

@Juliets: My suspicion of A Person was mainly because of his play style, but various people said that's just how A Person always is. Nothing has really grabbed me about AP since then.

@SD: I'm glad someone knows what's up.

@Dom: I'm offering my thoughts on a semi-consistent basis, certainly not the blendiest person in the game. And I'm not sure where you got the idea that I'm so helpful in other games, because usually I'm not.

I'm actually leaning towards looking at the people who followed my SVS vote yesterday, as they may be Timmer teammates bandwagoning to save their friend. And yes, I'm aware of the irony of focusing on the people who voted the same way as me.

In my experience with you, I tend to remember what you think of people when you're civvie and not when you're baddie.

juliets wrote:Snow Dog, who are you looking at this time around? I'm going to take a look at CBK's posts next.

S~V~S wrote:A lot of people are in and out of this thread tonight, but no one is saying a thing (except Indi).

I think people may have an expectation about how I may flip, and they may or may not be right, but none of that affects how I see what happened here today.

I voted Timmer becasue i though he seemed opportunistic, and that he might be bad. His teammates hung back, hoping to see more people show up and vote. People were more likely to vote for me being as I have been being mentioned as bad on and off for days. No one is showing up to vote, then Bullz & Indi vote within 5 minutes of each other... and no one else but Timmer showed up to vote. And they did not vote for me becasue they thought I was Trogdor~ they voted for me becasue I voted for Timmer.

The implication made was that I (and the people who voted for timmer after me) were voting for him to save DP, and that it was unnerving that several people found Timmer suspish.

Well, maybe several people found him suspish becasue he was suspish. Like I said, i expect to die tonight. And when you see I had no BTS, really think about what happened today. If Timmer dies, not I, and he flips civ, I will change my sig to whatever Timmer wants for a month on all sites. Which is a another way of me saying i will eat my hat. Not a fan of hat eating, am I.

I found it strange that you came in all of a sudden with this big case on Timmer based on him wanting a DP lynch when he's far from the only person who thought DP was Trogdor and therefore someone we need dead. Obviously you were right about him anyway but can you not see how it might look odd to an observer? Especially when your vote seemingly triggers a bunch more votes on him.
