What is the capital of Assyria? (hosts, deads, nons etc.)

Assyria is no longer in existence, thus it currently has no capital.

The LORB is returned. Having perused your offerings from the other night, I have decided to shine my light upon YOU, Bullzeye. I have granted you a boon. You will not know what it is until games end, but with luck you will benefit from it.

Since the only LORBS more Magnificent than I, DP & Roxy, have graciously allowed me to be here, I would like to see some words of praise for them. It may be in any form you like, but the more praiseful, the better. The next night I have a boon, I will extend it to the best praise of our Hosts.

THE LORB HAS SPOKEN

You may now grovel.

Rezz me like Jeebus, oh GOB?

*reads back*

Well, I shall follow this game to the end. My virginous Gallahad spire demands it...

Thanks for being so kind as I hung out with my sister and friends. Seriously, yay...

I feel like I'm dead. Am I dead? If not, disregard the color.

If so, welcome to any game I play

Also, my knuckles are bleeding and I may or may not have burnt some bridges, so rl and Mafia are going equally well tonight.

I've been away, Juliet. Here ya go.

It had a pre-emptive strike kind of feel to it, if that makes sense.

And to answer your 2nd question, I voted MM to lay down a vote in case I missed the deadline. I'm not confident in it or any ideas beyond my gut read of Enrique before, and he is not an option.

BWT's right, I have gotten off to a very slow start in this game and I'm not sure when I'm going to start "feeling it". I'm putting forth as much effort as I can though.

On a light note, my sister had a ballin' 21st birthday celebration, mission accomplished.

Honest reaction: When I saw SVS say "lovers" for the first time, I thought she meant Canuck saying she could kiss me...

How embarassing.

A: I though this was ending today.

B: Hmm.

I'm gonna have to vote soon, since I'll be driving out to Buffalo at 3 and don't wanna miss the lynch.

I don't love how Made immediately dropped his vote on me and took a vow of silence, but the discussion about why AP may have been lynched has given me pause in voting for him. I've never felt totally on board with lynching him in the first place.

Long Con wrote:I don't think is insulting, I think it's good for showing frustration.

I have bobbed for apples. I wouldn't now because, well, germs.

Still on the fence about Made... Canuck's theory could be correct, but it could just as easily be a baddie Made, hitting the right guy to lead us all down the yellow brick road, maybe forever. Enough people have also expressed doubts that I have to cast my own in with them in agreement.

I agree, I don't think the mystery theory lends any definitive insight into what Made's alignment is.

As long as neither of us has to wess Epi...

S~V~S wrote:Since the subtle video thing Canuck did was not so subtle (and since she was not punished for it, which I think she would have been had she been correct)~

Ninjajujube, the implication is that perhaps Made has a civ BTS role. Since the baddies would have to be on crack to kill Made, i don't think this is a real target painting per se. Canuck is frustrated with you for your belief that Made could be bad in light of her theory that he is not. A Person, the dead Concorde, does not seem to have particularly trusted him, so there is that.

Linki~ Canuck, that whole "beating the head into the wall" implies that people are stupid to me, so perhaps the sight of it, regardless of context, gets my whole "protect the oppressed" thing all grrrr and sassy. Apologies.

This wasn't what I took it as at all...

The thought I had in mind wouldn't necessarily require BTS

Linki: You want a mess?

^Nope, you put thought into it without going overboard. No idea if you're right, but respect all the same.

I had actually typed a response on my phone that was basically "That's interesting, if anyone could show me an example because I can't really read back right now", but it got linkitis'ed without me realizing it. It wouldn't have mattered because I didn't really get to check in until I just caught up now.

RIP A Person. I've seen plenty of Civvie roles that can switch a lynch, and probably ones that can reflect a lynch once or something, so I don't find the situation to be instantly incriminating to Made. However, the way he has been acting since then is a bit sketchy, as several people have pointed out. I'm gonna have to say that Made will likely get my vote. It doesn't look like he'll need it to get lynched anyway, but there you go.

We haven't gotten Concorde's role revealed yet.
I tried to allude to that earlier - that given the game source - I can see ONE scenario where a switch wasn't what went down.

I'm wondering if we won't see Concorde's role revealed for that very reason.

I still wait to see if I could be wrong about that.
Exactly.

All I will say is, read those quotes between bea and LC and hopefully it will click. For those of you who aren't seeing it that is.

I still think Made is likely bad, but there you go.

Let me take this moment to hoist my ignorance on high for all to see, so that they may point and mock me for my slowness, possibly insulting my parentage as well. Oh dear and mighty Lorb, mysterious in your invisabulness, guardian of all heds great and small, I pray for the mental prowess that I may remember the plot of your holy film in its entirety.

In the name of Gob, achoo!

(Slick theory, Canuck! Well supported)

Also, your "no u" accusation is apples and oranges.

My point on Enrique was that he was middling and deflecting from cases being built. I like to night hide, so I'll offer some thoughts on the posts I read when I have time tonight.

Regardless, I'm placing my vote on him again, as I do believe his waffling from defending you to condemning you is calculated on his part.

But hey, if you continue to offer such damning evidence, maybe I'll switch my vote to me!

Woah, Ignore this, I very VERY much misread your post. My bad.

K.

I will, at the very least, not make an effort to ignore you and I do hope my snark isn't taken personally. I pissed SVS off something fierce in a game or two on Rev because of it.

I like LoRab's style and I haven't played with her in a while, so hearing from her would absolutely be welcome.

You used your big ol' Jesus stick to pogo away from the poll

So, uh...I guess f*ck that because the sneaky bastard's not on the poll.

Gth Eko! (I've missed you

Enrique wrote:Yeah llama I really should have the whole game figured out from the get-go shouldn't I :/

I'm glad you've moved over to the Made-train now that he's outlived his usefulness to your team. Should give you oodles of civ-cred.

Lord, I have no grail, for I am poor.

Please accept this offering instead:

5 votes in with 3 hours to go. -_-

Enrique wrote:Can I just say I disagree with the argument that I only ever talk about the Made / llama deal BS? I've been around, I've called people out, asked to participate, responded to most discussions in this thread so far. Maybe most of my posts have been in my own defense but I've been talking craploads and definitely ventured outside that bubble. I actually really needed this day break lol.

People that keep bringing up Hedgie... I think it's pretty funny that nobody ever talks about what the case on her is. It's like she's just a buzz name thrown around by people who want to act like they're all over this game. "Oh yeah, definitely looking at Hedgie's posts," "I'm gonna look back on the Hedgie case to see what's going on." But then there's absolutely no content?? What the hell are you guys thinking? What makes Hedgie stand out from the other 20 players that you're even consider her for a vote? Please enlighten me here!

Something something juliets. I don't trust her a lot, and that exchange with LC definitely pinged me some. Too tired to even think of specific points right now, just sharing how it made me feel reading it. It's reallyy late and I almost forgot to Mafia before bed, but here I am, up to speed again. I will go back on this tomorrow before the lynch. I definitely won't vote for her without having made a case before, but eh, I'm not really that deep into this. I've known juliets on IRC for a few years but I'm not sure we'd ever played together before? It's a lot harder to suspect someone when you're not all that familiar with their style. For the most part I've backed off the llama thing because people insist it's civvie llama talking, it's just my gut disagrees. w/e we'll see

I never said ONLY Made/Llama, I believe I mentioned you arbiting between Made/Llama as well as other players in your posts. I did a fairly thorough read back as I had to find the day 1 post that pinged me in the first place. I appreciate your response.

Also fyi, I'm not sure if anyone else can verify, but it seems like Hedgie draws suspicion for something in many games I've played here. After (I think) Super Meat Boy, I now brush it off unless something really stands out to me.

I'd be interested in hearing some more insight on Jules when you're around again. My instinct is still on the low side of the fence about your alignment; but like I said, I appreciate the discussion.

Personally, I'm a beer 'n' scotch man...

Rum is good too.

Hmm, I'm leaving my vote on Eko (Enrique) for now.

Oh jeez, I didn't even take notice of that!

I dunno how you did that. I already made an argument about those two yesterday, and Made merely acknowledged it.

Also, yeah I remember him and Eloh saying they'd be camping.

In all that, I forgot to welcome Keterman too!

And a belated twirling hi to LoRab!

EBWOP @Juliets: Duly noted. Keep in mind I stated "some combination" and did not say what I thought the nature of those ties were.

I see Hedge is back and would love to see some posts from her if she'd be so kind. Doublelinki: oh, a'ight then... >.<

THE LEGENDARY TRIPLE LINKI: Have I said anything about your theories being wild and wacky? Everyone's wild and wacky here. It's a lovely place. I can say I disagree with his "Name 3 people and one of them is bound to be a teammate" rule of thumb; but in a broader sense, I do feel there is relevance in the names that DF dropped before he was NKed, especially since he was in no danger of suspicion at the time of his demise.

I made Made's shortlist!

If I had known that all it took to garner your suspicion was reference Enrique and you, I would have done so waaaay earlier in the thread.

So, is Epi suspicious to you too then?

What specifically, I'm curious exactly what part of his post spoke to you.

His skepticism of Enrique and DF's interactions, not to mention how wavering DF was on you and Enrique.

I feel like there are ties somewhere between some combination of DF, Jules, Enrique, and/or yourself.

And the following post stood out for sure:

Enrique wrote:I have no idea whether Made has BTSC. Do we really have to go over this every other post? I simply don't buy your case. I could argue all you've said is "I think Made has BTSC," and similarly, I'd say that's based on nothing.

Maybe, just maybe, llama, you should try to be a bit less vague. Get stuff out of the way. Something like telling Made "Hey, I did ask you if you had teammates, but only after you got weird about it." Emitting that sorta shit doesn't help anybody, except you if you ever needed to backpedal. No, making it seem like he's straight up lying from the very beginning only makes him a likelier lynch candidate. You've got your mind set on lynching Made for hardly any reason, and nobody can do anything to change that.

Thank you! I am sick of talking about this. I have said everything I have to say on the issue, and I have no new information, so I welcome the chance to move on and discuss other things.
OK, if you want that, you know what's a good idea? Bringing other names to the table, instead of simply saying "let's not discuss this anymore because he's bad and that's final," as if that was good enough for everyone.

I'm open to watching a case get picked apart and hearing contrasting opinions, but I would be interested to see if Enrique can practice what he preaches here and bring other names to the table. Because all I've seen is him acting as arbiter between Made and various people. Maybe as a protective teammate? Maybe for vindication if Made were lynched and was civ? Maybe just out of his defensive nature (I recall Enrique being quite scrappy and holding his own in LP games

)? Of that, I can't be sure.

Nvm, here it is:

Mister Rearranger wrote:My only experience in the challenge room was that juliets was very helpful and willing to collaborate on ideas about the challenge. I'ma have to use posts for the rest of my context since I wasn't there for long.

Lnki: I agree with your assessment of MP, Bullz.

I'd like to reread what the Made voters have said as well as the MP voters and go from there.

Linki: I disagree on Enrique though. He's closer to the less trusting side of the "unsure" zone right now...

Not a case, as I planned on voting for MP anyways.

Thoughts are forthcoming though, if/when I get some free time at work.

I voiced uneasiness about him on Day 1, iirc. I forget whose post I was responding to though. Gimme til I get to work and I'll dig it up.

Epi's thoughts today touched on some things that I'd been pondering as well.

To vote Enrique or Made: that is my conundrum...

Rarely have I read a Mafia thread and wished that I could be LESS sober while doing so... >.>

I will say it's incredibly different trying to figure Made out as another player compared to hosting him, haha. Having seen him play as a civ for an entire game, I don't really see anything that contrasts his play style, but objectively, there are a lot of things he's doing that would normally raise my suspicion of most players. :/

Great, now I'm addicted to reading some of these public Pastebin posts.

Has anyone else read the first page again?

Only asking 'cause it seems like there's some confusion as to what DF's role was, as well as what MP's role could have done...

Thought the lynch was today...

(filler)

I would like to know if jules still hates me (because I am quite vain...)

Serves that guy right! To think I waved at him...

I'm supposed to type out some synapses, so here I go:

Dendrites

Axons

Etc...

Ok, seriously though:

Day 0 was full of off-topic fun and whimsical entertainment. Dana was a rebel (Dottie) and broke the only rule so far, major kudos for that.

Later, some insane challenge happened that I'll likely drink a lot of booze to forget about letting the "nudge" voters down in.

On day 1, shit got real. Made rocked the boat, but failed to tip said boat over. People were very focused on sinking MP's ship instead. We slayed a monster, which was cool. Any memory of the thread after that is a blur, marred by alcohol. So here's a gif to describe the thread instead:

I just baked the best s'more brownies, btw.

What happened? Did I win? >.o
