Good call, let's proceed with caution.

Any other animals up for grabs?

If you get bored and need something whimsical, I made a fun list of 26 different sandwiches in the Random Questions thread.

This game is about trust too. You're going to have to trust me to win bc I am indeed an Animal as I am sure plenty of people will have checked me out over the night.

So please I am next on the Animals to lynch list.

nice additions!

Oh, the host is not going to be happy that I omitted SGM.

Dude, I totally thought I put Modest Mouse on there.

Anyone remember these classic bands from ... last year? (That's just the way I talk, sugs).

#384

Is anyone else excited for the new Modest Mouse album? Are they OK to like? Will I like, lose music appreciation cred if I admit that they are one of my favorite bands? Oh god, is there like some weird anti-Modest Mouse movement on PA that I don't know about, and by merely invoking their name, I'm ostracizing myself completely from any and all musical discussions in the future? They aren't Prog, right? What the hell even is Prog? Is this Prog?

Is this Prog?

At this point, I'm too scared to ask. I'm in too deep, man. I mean, I love Pink Floyd and Captain Beefheart, but I'd not put them in the same genre. This is what happens when I try to talk about music on this site, I feel hopelessly out of my league. I should really just shut up, and let the adults converse at this point.

#385

Awesome animal music lists. Especially Henry Cow.

Doesn't matter whether Modest Mouse are prog or not, they are awesome. :drums:

#386

Here is some animal music i've listened to relatively recently featuring girls

#392

I voted for the beach earlier, but my phone had died so didn't get to explain when i cast it.

sorry for missing the lynch poll. I would have voted inh for the confrontational tone in his last post to me:

fingersplints wrote:What has already been said sabie. Voting plans rarely actually work, They usually do for me. and this one feels a lot like "cheating the system"... in the event that it actually does work. Seriously? I wouldn't underestimate Llama's intelligence. He's one smart cookie. I don't see any way that Llama didn't write the entire game around the core concept that everyone could win the game if they all work together. The roles, the rules, everything matches up too perfectly for this to be unintentional.

And "animals revealing their team" feels a lot like outing. Once again, THIS IS PART OF THE GAME. THE RULES EXPLICITLY ALLOW THIS. This is not a standard game of mafia. We can out our own team. Idkk I don't like it at all and I don't plan on following it. Is the only pro for this that INH assures us that everyone will win? Read the rules. Read the roles. It makes actual logical sense. It's not just me telling people to do random things and saying that everyone will magically win.

I play to have fun, and if I win yea that's cool too, but I'd rather enjoy doing it and be challenged. Following this voting plan and winning isn't a win for me, I'm sorry.

I'll just quote what I said about SVS.

If you wanted to play a standard vanilla game of mafia, you shouldn't of signed up in the first place, and maybe you shouldn't insult the game itself for not being something that you, personally, like.

I don't see how this is not "playing" or not "fun".

Llama more or less explicitly wrote the game so that this could happen, and making it happen is such an immense challenge, that getting it to work is, in my opinion, a fun objective that requires people to "play" the game, but maybe not in the normal way that you "play" a game of mafia.

I fail to see how not agreeing with your plan because its IMO less fun is insulting the game or underestimating the hosts intelligence.

I don't see why llama would explicitly write a game like you propose. What is the "mafia" aspect of it then? What's the challenge? Maybe everything isn't at face value like you seem to be taking it as.

What is the point of that, though? I think you are totally missing the win conditions. If him being confrontational makes you think he is on a particular team, and voting for that team would benefit you & help you achieve win conditions, fine, then explain it here, if that is even how you feel.

Voting due to perceived rudeness while ignoring win conditions entirely screams of pettiness and is probably a disservice to your teammates.

#394

Hell, the game is literally called OBLIQUE STRATEGIES. I think a lot of people completely miss the insinuations of that

i.e. that typical mafia tactics (arguing and trying to fabricate lynch cases on random people) will accomplish nothing

Except I don't know who my teammates are, do I? or what team inh is on... So lynching inh just might complete my win condition, which I am not missing, thanks.

It's called "Oblique Strategies - an Eno Mafia" therefore it is still a mafia game. I am not missing that part of the name but you seem to be missing the last. I do not think that it is wrong to think that some mafia should be involved.

#398

splints, which team is the mafia?

#399

As far as I can tell there are two ways that could be:
1. You are Fellas and you think he is an Animal
2. You are Animals, you think either a Fella or a Gal has been or will be killed, and you think he is the other team (Gal or Fella)

So is it one of these? Or do you not have any reason to want to lynch him other than that he offended you or something?

And if you have reason to believe inh is on a particular team, why wouldn't you share it? "I don't trust his motives" isn't going to convince anybody else to help you lynch him.

#400

I forgot 3. You are a Gal and for some absurd reason you think lynching INH is necessary to ensure your own survival. In which case, as I said, you should EXPLAIN your reasoning.

Imagine if, say, a judicial process was based on vague feelings and suggestions
