@Made apparently has a reason to vote for me, hey Made why you voting for me?

I'm also curious about this! It might be actual game-related content!

What's really fascinating about it is *why* the standards came to be "correct".

My posts also have numbers in them!

If you'd like we can talk about the linguistics of numbers. Like how French has the weirdest names for numbers ever.

29

Warning: if people don't start participating I'm totally fine turning this thread into a linguistics discussion. Do with that what you will.

24

Themselves? That doesn't look quite right.

25

Oxford dictionary says themself is not widely accepted and shouldn't be used in formal contexts.

26

Don't worry about that noise, "themself" is the most cromulent way to refer to a single person in the given context.

I think the problem is that "they" is becoming common for unknown third person singular, but it still 'feels' plural. So in this context I would use "they", but because it feels plural a singular "themself" feels off even if it is perfectly unacceptable.

Is it wrong that there's a part of me that wants to see everyone insanified at once? A heist game where everyone was an insanifier was a gimmicky theme I've thought about countless times.

Doesn't this game have enough going as it is?! We have 8 possible teams, a couple insane people, a sexy singalong competition, puzzles, somebody kidnapped, and like 70 roles left to chew through before this becomes a regular game.

20

Yet only 20 pages of posts

Doin my part to change that. Although it'd help if I did my numbering right...

Also, maybe Rico isn't doing a bit? So hard to tell. Don't have time to look through the roles again right now.

Also I don't think Rico is cursed, just doing another bit.

Goooooo speedchuck! Sorry Epi, nothing personal, but you did already win one.

Mine is bad again. I don't have the musical talent. Am drummer.

A drummer? Now I'm definitely voting for you again!

Speedchuck for singalong winner!

Hopefully somebody does the sexy sexy sing-along. It was actually kinda fun.

16

I have no idea what's going on any more.

Except that today is slooow.

15

About 26 hours from now, right? I can't remember if it's CT or ET.

14

Does anybody have a good reason to vote for somebody not themselves? Wasn't there a train last phase?

Which reminds me - has anybody made headway on the puzzle?

If they are the ones selecting the songs for the singalongs

This seems like a trap...

Also I need to pick up the pace!

We can't confirm that though. You could be lying.

Also no stealing.

So I have an idea. Going to try something. It's going to be tough but maybe I'll be able to do it?

(Or maybe I'll just fail miserably. Or succeed and it won't actually accomplish anything.)

So you have to post like this until you die, is what you're saying? Do you want to be lynched?

Waiting waiting waiting for sexy sing-along. Also I'm here, suffering no ill effects last night (that I know of). Voting Luffy, last post today unless something changes.

Yeah, I wish I had the time to run 100 posts through the decoder machine, or to look up other language translations, but no. I'm here to quickly catch up between the many other things that take up my day.

It's just counting to 100 in Finnish. Which is why we wanted to vote Luffy.

TIL that Finnish is an agglutinative language!

I'd much rather vote out Luffy today. Ricochet is on to something here.

In fact, #yolo

I wasn't invited to do a sing along.

Which might be a good thing...

Can't, or won't...

Also I kinda like plan "let's all vote for speedchuck and then hop off." This game needs some chaos.

what does this kill tell us about which roles are active?

At least one of the 5-7-9 teams is very small.

The odds seem to have a lax kill requirement since their team is the smallest in the game.

If I'm reading the team kill conditions correctly, we could have had 4 kills last night. I doubt 1 is in the game until the end, so that leaves 3. Odds took one of the kills, which leave 2 left... either neither of those qualified for a kill, or at least one kill was stopped.

Assuming none of the 5/7/9 qualified for a kill means there are 0-3 Fives, 0-2 Sevens, and 0-1 Nine.

Also means a prime number of primes isn't active.

Not sure if any of this means anything.
