Here's some points and shit on Epignosis. I'll keep them in chronological order.
Day 1 saw Epignosis make a lot of joke posts, as well as have a ton of interactions with Golden and blindfaeth. He set himself up early by accusing blindfaeth and Golden of buddying each other at the beginning, and continued to accuse them throughout the day. Not much to see here, aside from both blindfaeth and Golden pushing an Epignosis lynch.
I've pointed out this quote before, but I'll pull it again.
Epignosis wrote:Zomberella12 wrote:blindfaeth wrote:Oh well, if people are interested in lynching me I suppose I'll share what I know. At least if I die, SVS won't be able to lie to you about whose will it is. It is Zomberellas will. The reason I did not come after her in the thread as many of you suggested is because she was literally absent for so long. Which I think is oddly convenient, but whatever. Final thoughts, I think dom is bad, he's only analytical like this when he has a team. I think epi and bills are bad. Think SVS is misguided. Good luck
Well, I think BF ruined my role. Thanks, for that. Civvie or not, you blew it!
Now that's interesting, right there.
The point I made earlier and I'll make again is that this reaction is a perfect set up to slide one way or the other while Epignosis waits to see what the others have said. A weather vane point with the wind, if you will.
Night 1, I brought forth a
theory on SVS and Zomba, which I thought had some strong potential. Epignosis disagreed with the ideas behind the theory
here and
here, though never addressed the theory itself.
Come Day #2, some strange things happened that resulted in my lynch. I still find them strange. Night 1, Epignosis debated some things with LC and rabbit, TH made some little comments, but nothing really relevant. At the time, I found this suspicious, because TH specifically said
"I like where this is going". Now, Epignosis stated early on in Day 2 that
"My #1 man is still Metalmarsh, but never followed up on it (except with a vote). No reasons why, but TH followed up on it with a case. Epignosis did however make some other joke posts, such as lying that I had self-voted (for who knows why) and dropping some implications into the thread such as
"Black Rock is out Night 1". Anyway, the result was my original lynch.
Then there is the Zomba lynch, which Epignosis was
so dang proud about. I recommend anyone who has the time and energy to do a reread of Epignosis. Zomba had been a hot topic all game up until her lynch, at least from the moment that blindfaeth brought her name forth. Epignosis was willing to debate the will with Golden and blindfaeth on Day 1. But when it came to Zomba, hardly a mention until the votes piled onto her on Day 3. There were a few joking interactions between the two, but Epignosis only mentioned Zomba seriously on two occasions.
Here he mentions Zomba to support a suspicion of LizKeen, and the only other time was in the above pulled quote I already mentioned. It's one thing to think someone is good or bad, but to ignore the idea altogether is a different story. Considering in the quote I pulled up above that Epignosis pointed to the one particular comment from Zomba as "interesting", it should be a surprise to everyone that Epignosis did not pursue it.
Another observation I will make. On Day 4, Epignosis voted for Dom, with the intention of voting for the player he found suspicious. No he did not say so, but he did agree with me that lynching Dom was not
plausible. Why didn't Epignosis do this on Day 3? Throughout the day, it seemed clear that LizKeen was Epignosis's number one suspicion. Yet come Day's end, Epignosis placed the obvious crucial vote to tie the lynch between Zomba and Vompatti. Not only this, but he placed the vote on Vompatti, Luckily, Zomba was lynched anyway, and Epignosis looked the fool.
Let me simplify Epignosis's daily cases.
Day 1 - blindfaeth brought information to the thread, so he is bad.
Day 2 - Metalmarsh self-voted Day 1, so he is bad.
Day 3 - LizKeen quoted Vompatti, so she is bad. But he voted vomps anyway even though he had no suspicion of vomps.
Day 4 - Dom spoke like a politician, so he is bad.
Day 5 - ???
So, vote Epignosis please. Stop listening to him and people who have been wrong.
Damn I'm tired, but now I have beers in me. More Black Butts.
