Thank you, my friend. You played very well and I enjoyed playing this game with you very much. Again, I’m very sorry that I suspected you

Best case? Like case duel each other.
@Glorfindel
Are you 100% sure Lap is town?
You’ve taken your cat on a cruise to New Zealand? WTF?
Lapluie is NOT Mafia.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Thu Jan 25, 2018 4:11 pm One thing that is blindingly clear:
If Simon is mafia then lapluie is not.
No you won’t LC - she’s one of us.
I voted for Lapluie too and I was wrong. I don’t think Simon making a wrong choice particularly in that instance (sorry, Lapluie) wasn’t necessarily understandable.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Thu Jan 25, 2018 12:12 pmThat's a fair argument. I would consider them both to be active at least in that they can send night actions. You'll note that Simon voted late in the last day phase, and for you.
I don’t share your level of certainty, my friend but I’d wager that your assessment of the situation is correct. At this point of the game with our numbers (theoretically, at least) approaching balance, I’m especially wary of ‘easy options’ like Simon.lapluie wrote: ↑Thu Jan 25, 2018 12:09 pmThere is no case against simon, I for one am certain simon isn't bad, there's no reason to even lynch him. He's inactive!!!!JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Thu Jan 25, 2018 12:07 pmWhat if there's very similar evidence against Simon as there is against nutella?lapluie wrote: ↑Thu Jan 25, 2018 12:06 pm You guys don't actually think Simon's is bad, youre voting him off because he's inactive, there's no real evidence that he's mafia, the real evidence is in nutella.
Tony was very adamant in nutella being bad.
But I feel like I'm talking to myself now & nobody's listening so ...rip....
=/
I’d have to go back and check. I can certainly see Nutella as being Mafia. And if read what you said earlier correctly, I agree - the whole Simon thing seems like a bad deal to me and I am skeptical of anyone pushing that agenda right now.lapluie wrote: ↑Wed Jan 24, 2018 11:34 pmThank you glorf!

Marmot was here at EOD. He acknowledged Glorfindel's yelling but did not heed it. He kept asking "why", which is a bit obtuse I think given the rules of the game.Marmot wrote: ↑Tue Jan 23, 2018 9:34 pm Quick take.
Long Con has been apathetic all day, and eventually voted lap for self-preservation.
lap is giving what looks like a sincere defence, but is suddenly willing to lynch speedchuck despite not having any reason to. I get self-preservation, but guilting another player into lynching one of their scum-reads.
Spoiler: show
Not a good look.
Also, apologies to you Lapluie. Jay has made me see the light.
what are your thoughts on Tony claims about nutella?

Very well, Jay - you have my attention.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Wed Jan 24, 2018 7:11 pmI can understand why you'd be perturbed given your strong civilian read on Long Con. Whatever brings you to that read, consider how others are going to approach Long Con without the same rationale in mind that you have in yours. He hasn't done very much in this game. He's flown under the radar. I think it's fair to suspect him in the absence of special insight. In lapluie's case, I am pretty sure Long Con voted for her in a tally which could have easily destroyed her. He moved to TSP in the end, but for a long stretch he was on lapluie. Play devil's advocate with yourself and assume lapluie is a civilian -- how is she likely to respond when an under-the-radar Long Con is trying to get her lynched close to EOD?Glorfindel wrote: ↑Wed Jan 24, 2018 7:05 pm If by your last question Jay, you mean someone else that I knew for certain to be a Townie, no.
Now, consider your own role in this incident. You were loudly shouting for LC to be saved. You didn't want that lynch. Anyone who knows you well would be well-advised to listen to you on that front. Does lapluie know you? Does your reputation hold any weight with a player who has never played with you before? What about the LC voters who do know you and still ignored you? Would you agree that there is a more obvious problem with that picture?
It frankly astounds me that anyone could read Lapluie’s ISO and deduce from that she is anywhere near Town. You said this of Jack:
Precisely the same thing could be said of Lapluie (only I think it applies more so in her case).JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Wed Jan 24, 2018 1:09 pm Jack is red because he continues to push dubious cases with a tone of exaggerated assertiveness while resisting other dubious cases with the same tone, and I question the legitimacy of any civilian mindset he has attempted to portray.

I am almost certain that you too are one of us. Please consider voting for Lapluie with us.
Let’s just pretend for a moment that you knew that LC was Town beyond any doubt - does that make a difference to your views on Lapluie (or anyone else for that matter)?
It’s partly what you’ve indicated above but looking at her ISO, she seemed to be coasting early on then the whole interaction with Dunya (in retrospect) just looks really bad. Now this LC thing? And then her reaction to being voted? If I didn’t know better, I’d say it sounds like she knows there are a substantial number of players that will never vote for her and that she’s totally safe. It just reeks Mafia to me.Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 23, 2018 6:46 pm @Quin
Laps felt like that most of the game to me. Innoffensive, I mean.
@Glorfindel
What specifically do you not like about Lap?
For me, it's the lack of trigger discipline. Like looking for reasons to abandon good trains like Simon and Tony in favor of bad ones like Dunya and LC.
Quin, would indy Lap do that? I think that's a scum or town trait. Indy can coast at this point.
Nope, my spidey-sense is going off something chronic on Lapluie right now.Quin wrote: ↑Tue Jan 23, 2018 6:21 pmI'm not town reading lapluie. I would vote for her. Recently it's gotten a bit better, but in the past few phases whenever she's posted I've had the feeling she's holding things back. Like she's trying not to make enemies or something.Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 23, 2018 5:47 pm Made is bothersome. I don't understand any of his reads. It's almost like he quoted random posts and assigned random reads and then stated the posts were the reason for his reads. He came out swinging on Day 1, got some town cred, was wrong and then disappeared. I keep hoping he'll come back and generate enough content to make me know he's town but I don't know he is.
Lap is also worrisome. I've scumread her most the game. This is offset somewhat by Sloonei (and Quin iirc) continuing to town read her. After really locking in on some suspects, she's gone off my radar a bit.
I don't like her jumpy vote switches, particularly from Simon to Dunya and now all over. Wilgy is actually coming out ahead in their one on one. Still, gth good.
I've never seen it, but this could be indy lapluie.
You were instrumental in pushing Dunya’s lynch and I don’t now believe that you ever really believed that she was Mafia. And here you are again trying to manoeuvre a lynch on LC. If you’re Town, I’m Santa Claus.lapluie wrote: ↑Tue Jan 23, 2018 5:50 pmOk buddy. There's nothing I can really defend myself other than what happened to the Dunya incident, in which I've already explained myself..

Quin, please explain to me what you mean by ‘leaving it up to Epi’? Epi hasn’t intervened in what appears to be a deliberate breach of Rule 3. Why do you think that is? Is it possible that it wasn’t a breach of Rule 3 at all?Quin wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2018 7:54 pmI think we should leave that up to Epi.Glorfindel wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2018 9:00 amMay I also ask how you interpret Jay’s earlier claim specifically in relation to Rule # 3 for this game?Quin wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2018 7:47 amGTH I call him town.

Congrats on the cruise too! May I ask where you’re going and for how long? At the rate we’re going, this game will be well and truly over by the time you leave - please forgive my negativity)
I'm staying in Sydney for a night and then heading to NZ. Gonna make stops in Auckland and some other cities/islands. I'll be back on the 8th.
Cool! Need someone to carry your bags?
No, I have three brothers to push all the heavy lifting on to![]()
Anything is conceivably possible. I suppose it could’ve been him from the language he used but Ermac kinda sounded like he knew stuff and if Jay’s Indy claim is true, I don’t see how that could be true. I’m still not sure I believe any of the stuff he said - for a start, how could you ever take anyone seriously with a ‘cat in a sweater’ avatar?Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 22, 2018 8:35 am @TonyStarkPrime
