Um jump to conclusions much? I said it was a good point, and it was. Never said I was on board.

Never said I was either.

BTW Hedge you always sound so convincing.

hedgeowl' bothered me more then sabie's. Sabie has otherwise contributed. Hedgie has not.

How should I have contributed at this point in the game when you posted this? I am currently still playing another game, so not as present as I could be. (Example A missing the Day 1 lynch).

I was waiting to see if hedgie responded, and then I got busy doing pup stuff and missed it. (last night with them! it's been tough, but I will miss them)I noticed you mentioning the people going after sabie. I hope I am not included in that crew. I can elaborate on this if it helps:

I do not think that everyone who is confused is bad obviously. It is just something I notice in games, because like I said I have played the confused baddie loads of times and it does work. sabie has seemed pretty genuine in her responses, and as llama pointed out this is the norm for her. I do not remember hedgeowl ever seeming this confused, and although it is day 1 she hasn't posted much of anything other than posts on her confusion. While it is possible she is confused, it also seems like to me that she is hiding behind that confusion to avoid posting of substance.

So I might have switched to her. Although, I don't mind voting AP if it will get him to post more

You say you were waiting for me to respond, but respond to what? You didn't ask me any questions. You just said my confusion bothered or pinged you more than Sabie. I assure you my confusion is legit and totally normal in a more unusual game on Day 1. I was also saying I was confused about answering riddles, etc. the mechanics of the game as was Snowy. I am not sure how this would be a baddie ploy for me though.

I get that you are playing another game. Really I do. But up until your last post you didn't have a single comment or post on anyone this game. But you had plenty of time to read and keep up with the jokey posts in the thread. That is suspicious to me. All I wanted was something from you.
You don't see how avoiding posting anything of substance is a baddie ploy? By posting confusion on the game mechanics it makes it at least somewhat appear you are talking about the game, when you aren't really. So at least some of your posts were "on topic".
Like I said before, maybe you really are confused. That is not the only thing that has pinged me about you though. It's just your overall lack of substance to your posts.

gotta sleep to get up and hunt baddies another day.

When people say this about baddie hunting I always view it as bit iffy. Like saying it replaces doing it.

Plays the "playing another game" defense, where, in that other game she isn't exactly posting much either.

This is a very good point.

In my entire mafia career, I have yet to be on the correct side of a baddie lynch.

what does this mean

she was bad in at least one of them.

No one has voted for confusion as sabie has said though.

i am voting for mm to keep him on his toes.

You can discuss whatever you want in the thread.

Anyone catching up on the seven seasons of Gilmore Girls on Netflix?

Yes.

God, they don't shut up.

Right? I made it through season 3, before I needed a serious break. I am not sure I actually like Lorelai and Rory. Don't get me started on that whole Jess fiasco.

I am a bit confused by this game. How could anyone possibly have known the answer? Guesswork?

Russtifinko wrote:Ugh! I realized in the shower that I had missed Night 0 and said, out loud, "Fuck you, Dan!" to myself. Still getting into the swing of mafia-ing, I guess. Sorry, everybody. I somewhat rarely curse.

Looks like a number of people chose Moon, so I guess the damage was only lost rupees. And every talisman was chosen! So that's good. I don't think I love the switchable votes thing, though...gives power to people who are around at lynch end. Which I will be, but still.

I think we should look at Hedgie, since she admitted to being good. Which, in this game, is bad.

Thanks Made! I trust you too. I know you would never lie to me.

Wow, one post in a game and I have already earned someone's trust. What have been doing wrong in all my other games?

Being bad.
