It's a pretty reasonable conclusion based on Cain's law. Why should any human want Cain dead? I'll eat S~V~S' hat if the goal of almost every human doesn't involve killing at least the 7 Cylons that are evil on the show. Killing Cylons is cool. Present company excepted, of course.

Reasonable? If somebody changed my status like Cain did to the humans, I'd straight up want revenge, victory be damned.

THIS. THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS. WHOLE

What do you think about the people who are voting for someone other than LoRab this lynch?

What about today? Should people keep voting for LoRab? DF? Start a sig wagon?

So I just looked and DF hasn't posted in this game in three days (the 15th) but has posted in another game multiple times since then. That game so far only has about 10 pages day 1. We had like 40 I think. I am not so sure DF's silence is role based as much as it's a lack of interest maybe because of all of the catching up this game requires. (Although this is purely a guess and should be taken as such.)


MM - I stated yesterday (last night) that I was going to vote for LoRab when the day started because she's a confirmed cylon and lost her amnesty. I'm honestly shocked that everyone who was saying the same before hasn't done so. Even some of the same people who voted for her yesterday haven't today. And I kind of feel like DF is a bandwagon set up waiting to happen. Which is why I'm asking for a plan.

Long Con wrote:Host: Do players need to be alive to claim their Win Condition?

Yes, unless their win condition expressly says otherwise. This is about the survival of the human race. Death is death!

However - I guess this is as good a time to say it as any - there will also be two specific gameplay-based awards opened to public vote at end game, and those awards will also lead to win credit dead or alive.

There's your answer. Now I'm asking you kindly to drop it because I'm not going to change my mind, unless the outcome of me saying it is lesser than the punishment, I'm not saying it. No more reason to back and forth about it. It's there.

Metalmarsh89 wrote:I sense some directed angst in ObscureAllure's posts. This is a new development.

How many people in this game are doing this - just messing around? I really feel like I don't have the gravitas right now to even call these people out on it, especially since I'm somehow involved in all the jokes. Metalmarsh and Zebra are the two main players that are messing around. Please, someone like JJJ or Scotty or frakking Epignosis, can you please call these people out and hold them accountable?? S~V~S maybe? Ricochet? Is anyone out there still just sane?

Ditto. Ass jokes and new developments aside. We have yet to figure out a plan for today.

Zeebs - Uhhh... Oh... kay? That's not confusing at all. lol.

a2thezebra wrote:Long Con, I feel that I've gotten a decent grasp of your mafia mojo and I feel that what you're displaying here doesn't resemble anything close to that.

Why does it anger and frustrate you that I'm town-reading you?

You didn't town read him, you said he's a confirmed townie. This is pretty much the kiss of death in a game like this, because if someone is a confirmed townie, it makes them nightkill bait. If they are confirmed, they they can't be suspicious and detract attention away from the mafia. I can't believe I'm defending him, but what he's saying is true. By taking the stance of having an info role and claiming he's a confirmed townie, you're pretty much dooming him (if he's actually a townie and not mafia, that is. Which he's not, so he's nightkill safe. )

You seem to invoke that this Day will end early, compared to the previous ones, as if it's a given. Anyway, I don't see what's there to fret about. If Day ends early, won't LoRab get lynched if she has the most votes?

I said it after you might have missed me say it - I had forgotten that LoRab already did a cylon claimed. I was thinking they would vote for one other person (a civvie), have her cylon claim today (to not be lynched), and end the day early right after to get the civvie lynched. However since she claimed yesterday she has no amnesty today so my idea is not possible. (And that was using the idea already mentioned in the thread that they have an end day early power, although I don't remember by whom and I am too lazy to look it up.)

LC - Honestly, anything in the game is open to having been tampered with. If there's one thing I think we can all agree on, it's that.

Sorry I didn't mean to quote that, I meant to quote Golden's answer.

This is, I think, something relevant enough to quote. This is something that makes sense to me, unlike so much else in this game.

Cavil for sure. You caught me. Let me give you more of my team mates while I'm at it.

Sorry Polo, I said all four at the bottom of that post, just typing too fast.

LC: I said I ain't got time fo you no mo! Hide yo wife, hide yo kids! Now on to other things...

Where the heck is DF anyway. Has he been this quiet in other games here recently? I don't remember hi ever being this quiet back in the day.

I don't.

I don't (care.) I have my reason. Just because you don't understand my reason doesn't make me a bad guy. I've voiced support of you Epi since you were lynched and I was one of the first if not the first person to say that .... ugh let me phrase this very very carefully....

And I am telling you that Lynching LC is a very, very good idea.

This, much more than your refusal to make the statement, makes me believe you must be a Cylon.
Wait do you think I'm a cylon or a mafia? Make up your mind.

I am literally a cylon hunting machine. Just let me be about the damn species claim, please?? I'm not changing my mind regardless of what y'all say or do. Now either let me keep sussing out the bad guys like I've done all game or lynch me because we're going to keep talking in circles about this if not. I'm not saying it.

Not saying it tonight, not saying it unless I get lynched, or not saying it ever?
Not saying it unless the outcome outweighs the punishment I will receive. As of this moment, you and your cronies threatening to lynch me isn't a bad enough outcome to outweigh the punishment.

LC - I love that you're trying to swing it my way and turn it against me when you know why I can't say it. You, above all others, know why I can't say it. You can't be mad at me for just being who the Golden God made me. I was born this way.

I'm sorry, OA, but you are a frakking loon. You can't imagine how frustrating it is to be accused of knowing what's going on with you and your Mystery Crew, but I have nothing to do with it. WHY do you all think that? Some sort of clue? Uh, it couldn't be someone intentionally misleading you maybe??? I don't know, I'm friggin blind here.
I can't help it if you picked the wrong one. That was your fault, not mine. Next time choose more wisely. (I'm not saying anything more than that. You're lucky you're even getting that. I just think I know what's about to happen and if it does, I want some evidence on record. lol)

If Cain has Admiral powers, does that mean she can end the day early now?

Cain is adamant about removing Cylons, so if anyone has a counter to Lorab, I suggest you get on it before halfway through the day phase.

Derp.

Listen here, little fellers. The way I sees it we got two options. Option 1: LoRab has more guns pointed at her pretty little name, and Long Con standing behind her a few cow pies back OR Long Con with lots of rattle snakes in his boots and LoRab with a few little baby snakes on her back. Which'll it be, you mangy varments?!

Why are you okay with Cavil or other possible bad Cylons having a lynch save at LYLO, btw?

I'm going to ask this question of everyone who refuses to claim. Does anyone have a legit answer?

I'm not okay with that. How can I prevent that from happening by fakeclaiming?

Why are you being difficult?

I've already explained. By claiming, we narrow down the list of those who won't. Why aren't you interested in narrowing down that list? How is it a "witch hunt" ? Do you not find it suspicious that players refuse to claim?

Let's get specific. What do you make of OA refusing to claim? She said she would be punished if she did. Why would she get punished? Especially if it's a law that players are allowed to claim?

Because I've apparently worked all of my life to rid the universe of these damn toasters and there's nothing you hippie new-age young folks can say to make me tolerate toasters and people co-mingling and making mini bagel warmers and the like.

I told you in like the post above that one that he's not a confirmed Cylon. You literally had to read it to read this one. Even though he's not confirmed, lunching him will still get you a cylon. How has this man who has been a top suspect every day remained alive?! Y'all want to lynch a cylon, lynch LoRab or LC. Preferably LoRab because she's confirmed but LC will flip cylon just the same. Only I think there's a chance she might be a good cylon like Six. There's no chance he's a good cylon.

a2thezebra wrote:Who should we lynch today, OA?

LoRab or LC. LoRab is the more logical because she's confirmed cylon but she also could be a good cylon though I doubt it. LC may not be confirmed as far as y'all are concerned, but I'm telling you he's bad. He is a high ranking baddie, most likely. I get that it's not confirmed and so that makes LoRab the more logical choice but I also just want to see LC burn at his point.

sig wrote:So Say we All!

Okay so I still need to catch up but I saw the night results,

STOP VOTING FOR LORAB!

Why you may ask the answer is simply, right now we need to kill all the cylons the cylon amnesty law is still in play. We should make Epi the number 1 wagon and Lorab the number 2 wagon, So Epi will need to claim he's a cylon so he won't have the amnesty and then Lorab will still be lynched. We need to make sure everyone is on board with this though and we don't have what happened yesterday where Lorab had fewer votes then the counterwagon.


@HOST was no kill submitted or was the nightkill blocked? Also when did the Marmot law start working? Would it have blocked last nights kill?

Almost done school for the year so bear with me here.

STOP VOTING FOR ANYONE until we know if this law by the dictator stops when she is gone. If that is the case, I don't want force Epignosis or anyone else to do anything. Forcing people to do things is mob-think.

Although if I could force everyone to vote LC I would causr I think he's the New Boss

YES. Let's put LoRab up against LC. Or even skip LoRab and go straight for LC. Either way we've got a cylon.

Long Con wrote:So say we all. Cain is good for humans and bad for Cylons, it seems. I am completely lost with regard to most things Zebra is talking about. I think we should put bea in the lead with votes, to force her to claim Cylon and then lynch Lorab.

Thanks you, bea, for being one of the only ones to bother reading my posts. Matt too.

But if she's human she does and LoRab lives?!

And since your mafia, this just gave Bea some cred in my book.

WHY ARE WE NOT VOTING LORAB?! This is exactly what we should be avoiding and why we need to vote LoRab now?!

Are there any others who have been anti-cylon all the way from the get go? Or others who have refused to claim?

What sort of crazy something do you expect to happen? There's the fleet jump posibility, of course, but the three votes on LoRab already have that covered. If we don't build a second major wagon or something of the sort, we are unlikely to witness any more potential crazy amnesty happenings. So what else?

Have you been watching this game? This is like one of the craziest games I've seen so far. Im still not entirely sure who *I* am for gods sake (I'm kidding. Well, half kidding.

And now we can't decide if cylons should die or not and if humans can be mafia or not and oh my toasters.... Can we just follow the plan and lynch a cylon?!

We certainly can. I just don't see what can arise from not voting LoRab truckload dump style.

I think it's far less likely for something to go wrong if we take care of the votes now than if we wait.
