He's using his suspicion of me to clear you, it feels like.

I'm actually glad I threw my stuff out there. This game suddenly feels like its on.

I don't understand what you mean by that. Using his suspicion of you to clear me? Clear me from what? I hadn't even been brought up as a suspect when he announced his suspicion of you, I don't think.

I'm wary of Dom. His last few posts haven't quite hit the mark for what I expect from his civ style -- he's usually a lot more pushy/nitpicky/pseudo-accusative toward a lot of little things, and he seems nonchalant here. Plus he states a strong civ read on me, which doesn't have much of a history of happening right out of the gate. I think he's bad.

Screw it, night or not. 95% sure nutella is bad, enough that I intended to place my vote immediately upon day starting. About 80% that Dom is on a team with her.

Nutella's iso is noncommittal. People should have a look. I don't buy that she couldn't make up her mind on the vote and was too late... I think she has a vote manipulation role and didn't want to risk creating information through her vote in such a tight vote. She's tiptoeing around things, especially her read of me.

Nah.

Not really sure where you're getting this but you're wrong. I'm a civ and I intend to be as influential with my role as I can. I'm always noncommittal on day 1. I feel bad for missing the vote but I probably would not have made a difference in the result. I'm not "tiptoeing around things," I'm uncertain and waffly as I tend to be.

Golden wrote: ↑Wed Jul 19, 2017 4:20 pm If I'm bad I'm damn well going to look like what people think of as town golden.

But you just said your play this game looks exactly like your civ game.

There's a gap between what my civ game actually is and what people perceive it to be. I know that when I'm bad I have to play to what people perceive to be my town game.

My town game actually covers a very broad spectrum, but my baddie game only covers the spectrum of where I feel people will safely perceive me as town.

Fair enough.

insertnamehere wrote: ↑Wed Jul 19, 2017 4:08 pm well according to golden, golden's acting exactly how he does when he's a civilian, so I don't see any way anyone else can contradict him on that

also, if golden is highly aware of how he is when he's a civilian to "people who know him," wouldn't he try and, I dunno, act exactly that way when he's bad?

just some brain food

Yeah. He has fooled me before. I forget which game, but it was whenever he was bad recently and did a good job of looking like his civ self.

Italian food sounds good right now.

@Jack, no I don't think you and sprit are w/w, you're just two players I was considering voting for, for different reasons -- mostly weak day 1 reasons.

Who would you have decided. Say now before the ninja post.

Too late anyway, but I honestly don't know. I was kind of thinking about voting for Jack or Sprityo, but most likely wouldn't have affected the final decision in any case. I briefly considered joining the Made wagon but I ultimately agreed with you that he looked town and some of the votes on him look opportunistic/sketchy.

Made wrote: ↑Tue Jul 18, 2017 9:22 pm While I'd rather have responses to all questions, based on the answers I have been received so far, I will have to put my vote on the Rico for scumy behavior and other bad things.

Ricochet

I mean, he has only posted in emoji and has not contributed anything, so I'm not exactly disagreeing with you, but I'm curious what you mean by "scummy behavior and other bad things." I guess a self-imposed posting restriction to get out of contributing content could be seen as suspicious as well as annoying (though Rico has plenty of precedent for that type of thing and at least last time as the "Poppy" schtick in Blue Velvet he turned out to be civ). But your phrasing is odd and sounds kinda pulled-out-of-your-ass-y. Also surprising that you chose not to vote for one of the several players who already has a vote, considering you have the majority as of now.

DFaraday wrote: ↑Tue Jul 18, 2017 9:07 pm I'm trying to keep up on my phone, which is misery. I'm reading the exchange as something teammates would do to vaguely distance. The whole "We're going to get each other lynched" thing feels staged. With no better option right now, I will vote Wilgy (though either one works for me).Votes Wilgy

I disagree. I don't think it makes them look like teammates at all, and in fact I think it's rather opportunistic of you to knee-jerk react in that way.

Not a good look for DF here imo. I might vote for him, but I'm kind of wary of the votes spreading already. I am also (like Tony) considering voting for Jack. I didn't like the nervous laughter thing, but even more than that looking through his ISO I get a weird feeling from his constant requests to be asked things. He seems kind of over-eager and wanting people to prod him so that he can prove himself. I know from being his teammate in Mass Effect that he is pretty talented at gaining civ cred as a baddie, so I'm wary of that and I'm just not really getting the cleanest vibes here.

linki: I don't think anyone says switcheroo anymore, it's usually No U.

No.

That's an adverb, cretin!

"You have no mastery of the English language."

What is the function of the word "no" in the above sentence?

Technically it's a quantifier, and it does not behave the same syntactically as an adjective.

Quantifiers are adjectives.

"No" is an adjective (see definition 2).

Perhaps, at least for your sentence. But I don't think quantifiers are always adjectives. Often they behave more like determiners. https://www3.nd.edu/~jspeaks/courses/20 ... syntax.pdf

Did you know that gölden means "from the lake" in Turkish? Are you a lake monster?

Made wrote: ↑Tue Jul 18, 2017 8:06 pm Hello all,
It's come to my attention that my initial reads may have been flawed. In order to rectify this, initially I intend to post a question to every user as an attemption to get more information, however my computer has maufuctioned! Instead of this, I will ask questions to people as they post. If anyone has any questions about my questions, they can be asked here and I will try to answer them in the order received.


Epi- what is your favorite adjective?
Eloh- what's your favorite color and what do you think the color says about you as a person?
Drwilgy- do you think it's more likely that I get you lynched or you get me lynched this game?
Nutella- what is the derivative of arctan(x+1)
Golden- where did I misplaced my keys? I can't seem to find them anywhere!

More questions to come!

1/((x + 1)^2 + 1), according to Wolfram Alpha. Hope that helps.

Hi Golden. Are you supatown?

And now, the weather. *farts*

Been reading along but don't really have anything to add. I hate Day 1. I trust no one. Y'all are cool and funny but I haven't seen anything in particular to make me trust or suspect any individual over others.

Looks like INH is our first offender.

I'd love to go to Singapore. I hear it's an amazing food city.

I was gonna be unoriginal and say dragon, but meh, too generic, and besides Hiram McDaniels is a baddie so it might not be the best choice. I'll be slightly less unoriginal and say griffin cause they're pretty cool. And would win because it has cool talons and wings and is simultaneously a cute kittycat.
