Re: The Flash: Battle for the Gem Cities (Day 1)
I be confused. Is ika saying he thinks I am trying not to stand out, or that he's voting for me? If you are voting for me, ika, you need to do it in the poll or it doesn't count.

Re: The Flash: Battle for the Gem Cities (Day 1)
First off, quit the dumb armchair pseudopsychology. Betrayed by my subconscious? Great work Freud, maybe it's all my dad's fault or perhaps I'm just terrified of women because my mum once shouted at me when I was a kid. Or maybe what I meant is that in my first five or six games I was either bad, indy, or recruited, and that I've been bad way more than good. I've also never made a secret of the fact I prefer being a baddie and love getting recruited. All those things influence the way I play, I learned to play as a baddie and by the time I got my first permanently civ role I'd already figured out how I like to play. Why would such a person 'want' to get caught? Why would anyone for that matter? I want to win. You don't win by dying. As for why I phrased it that way, I don't care what people think of the things I say. When I'm bad I spend time carefully thinking over my posts, but as a civ I know I'm good and it doesn't bother me so much. My posts are streams of consciousness, I just type words as they come to me. Whether or not I edit them to make me look good depends on how concerned I am with 'looking' good.thellama73 wrote:I was trying to go to sleep, but this post kept gnawing away at my brain until I finally realized why. Why does Bullz word his response in this way? Why does he say "I always play my baddie game"? Why not "I always play my civvie game" or "My baddie game and my civvie game look just alike"?Bullzeye wrote: Did you see the part in btsc where I said I always play my baddie game because it's the only game I know? Did you see the part in this game where I've been helpful and nice and given everyone the benefit of the doubt? All I've said this entire game amounts to "sometimes a joke is just a joke". What do you mean looking for people who know they are bad? Everyone knows their role. Everyone knows if they're good or bad as far as I can tell.
If he always plays his baddie game, that means he is playing it now. Why would anyone admit to playing their baddie game? Keeping my psychologist hat on for a moment, I think Bullz is being betrayed by his subconscious. Maybe even, on some deep level, he wants to get caught.
I'm going to go ahead and place my vote on him for now.

Re: The Flash: Battle for the Gem Cities (Day 1)
Why does a criminal return to the scene of the crime? Why do serial killers intentionally leave clues to their identities? For most, the urge to do evil is accompanied by either a sense of guilt that drives one to subconsciously seek correction, or else a desire for recognition of one's evil deeds. The latter is why kids post videos of themselves committing crimes on youtube. The conscious desire to avoid detection exists, but it is at war with the subconscious desire to be recognized for one's achievements, heinous though they may be.Bullzeye wrote:Why would such a person 'want' to get caught?

Elohcin, do you think Epig is reading you correctly, regarding your game-involvement relating to your BTSC possibilities?

Re: The Flash: Battle for the Gem Cities (Day 1)
Sorry I haven't been around everyone! Working 6 days this week does not make me very conducive to lots of time for mafia. I have this morning free at least so I'm going to try catching up now. Might have to vote today too unfortunately, because I probably won't be able to post again until the lynch poll closes.

Re: The Flash: Battle for the Gem Cities (Day 1)
If I recall, Epignosis said something almost exactly the same in a recent game. Something like Epignosis originally learned how to play as a baddie, so he always plays like a baddie.thellama73 wrote:I was trying to go to sleep, but this post kept gnawing away at my brain until I finally realized why.

Re: The Flash: Battle for the Gem Cities (Day 1)
Part of it is how confident some of the voters seem, which suggests that they don't plan on changing their votes. I'm also a bit wary of the fact that Epi has taken 3 votes already. They may be changeable, but it still seems awfully early for the votes to start piling on to someone.Turnip Head wrote:Were there specific votes that don't sit well with you, or just the general idea of people voting early?

I have, and I don't really buy into Epi's reasoning for voting Elo.

How you can already be making assumptions when she's said all but two words (up to the point I've read) doesn't sit right with me. I understand your logic, but I need more concrete evidence.

Re: The Flash: Battle for the Gem Cities (Day 1)
To be fair, he spent most of his Day 0 talking about monkeys and in OT banter about the game's theme in a joking manner. Like most people did.DharmaHelper wrote:I don't think he's a civvie. I don't like his whole Day 0 schtick, it got annoying very quickly. Also, I noticed he didn't berate anyone for any logical fallacies throughout the entire duration of Day 0.

Re: The Flash: Battle for the Gem Cities (Day 1)
I would be willing to vote Bullzeye. While llama might be reaching with his reasoning, Bullzeye made a comment on Day 0 after Epignosis drew some heat that looked like he wanted to sweep it all under the rug.DFaraday wrote:I have, and I don't really buy into Epi's reasoning for voting Elo.

SVS brought up the specific topics, and Bullzeye classified it all as "jokes", and that Day 0 is good for a laugh. And in the very last game, Bullzeye's baddie partner was (unjustly) framed and later lynched based on things that happened Day 0.Bullzeye wrote:A bit of both really.

Monkey Boys jokes? Epi searching for a sidekick? Or other?

I don't believe I have ever said such a thing.Turnip Head wrote:He could just be speaking candidly. I know a few other players like to say that they "always play their baddie game". I've seen Epi say that, MP too. It usually doesn't do them any favors when they say it, either :P
That's close to what I've said, but not quite it. What I noted was that my first five online games in a row, I was Mafia. When I finally became a civilian, I found myself lying, scheming and manipulating people. Since I made that realization long ago, I have made a conscious effort to do something different (sometimes outrageously different) regardless of alignment to keep things fresh. In Dr. Who, I tried to be as stereotypically Mafia as I could be. It worked out for me, and I thought it was really amusing.Metalmarsh89 wrote:If I recall, Epignosis said something almost exactly the same in a recent game.

I would never have said I always "play my baddie game" because I do not have a "baddie game."

My thoughts exactly.Long Con wrote:So llama is deliberately trying to act in such a way that is like a previous Civ game? Is that supposed to make us think he's Civ in this one? Kind of heavy handed.
I'm currently mulling over either an Epignosis or llama vote. I still think Epig is making a stretch is making assumptions about his wife this early on. And it wouldn't surprise me if llama acting this way in X-men when he was a civ is making him decided to act in a similar manner early on because of is previous role in a previous game. Seems like the kind of trick he'd try to pull on us.

Re: The Flash: Battle for the Gem Cities (Day 1)
Hello everyone! I wanted to come in and post yesterday but I got distracted by Bloodborne. Damn that game is fun.
My thoughts as they stand:
1. I'm not convinced that Epi is right about Elo. The pool of post he's drawn his conclusion from is too small. I'd need more time and more from Elo to make up my mind. That being said, I don't think Epi is bad.
2. I'm inclined to agree with DH on llama. If I didn't already have a strong suspect for today, I might have voted for him.
3. I think S~V~S is a baddie. Here's one reason.
That is a quote she made about Epi and his suspicion of Elo, in case anyone needed context. I think this post was made as a way for S~V~S to get ahead of things in case Epi does go that route. She intentionally downplays the possibility, because she's only just now realizing how seriously bad it would make her look if that is what Epi did come out and say. This combined with the, as Epi put it, 'loaded questions' and misrepresentation she's put on Epi's post makes me think she is a baddie.

Re: The Flash: Battle for the Gem Cities (Day 1)
Did I specifically mention Epi at any point? Did I tell people not to look at him? No, and in fact I might even vote him myself based on more recent discussions based on things that aren't blatantly just fooling around. You're kinda misrepresenting the Zomba situation, it didn't even start until day one. Nobody had items on day zero. Nothing of significance happened on HSK's day zero.Metalmarsh89 wrote: I would be willing to vote Bullzeye.

Besides, do the baddies even have btsc? It doesn't look as though they do since one of them is searching for the others. So why would I defend Epi? And why would I do it in such a weak way? BF was the only person who really associated my comments with Epi, even I hadn't until he felt he had to defend himself.

MM is right you are distracting from yourself with Elo and shame on you !
Do you think Elohcin is even reading the thread?
How you can already be making assumptions when she's said all but two words (up to the point I've read) doesn't sit right with me. I understand your logic, but I need more concrete evidence.
What sort of concrete evidence do you expect to find to back up your vote on Day 1?
Not much on Day 1. Not like we have a lot to go on at this point. And I have even less since I probably have to vote in about 2 hours.

Re: The Flash: Battle for the Gem Cities (Day 1)
Aces, I actually had the same thoughts SVS did, but Epignosis did not react that way. Instead, he pursued Elohcin.
Linki@ Bullzeye: No you didn't mention Epignosis, Bullzeye, and that is why I find it suspicious. Rather then comment on the specific events of Day 0, you threw it all under one umbrella. Maybe you meant it but maybe you didn't. But in Harry Stephen Keeler Mafia, blindfaeth opened up to the rest of the thread about the will on Day 0, and that was certainly significant.
I guess you are right about the baddies, but one scenario I am thinking about myself is that you are the player who searches for other players. If that is the case, you certainly would want to protect Epignosis so that you could gain BTSC with him tonight if you think he is a baddie based on his Day 0 comments.
And what changed your mind about Epignosis? Why was it all jokes on Day 0, but suddenly an appealing case?

No, no, friend. I didn't defend myself, you defended yourself.Bullzeye wrote:Did I specifically mention Epi at any point? Did I tell people not to look at him? No, and in fact I might even vote him myself based on more recent discussions based on things that aren't blatantly just fooling around. You're kinda misrepresenting the Zomba situation, it didn't even start until day one. Nobody had items on day zero. Nothing of significance happened on HSK's day zero.Metalmarsh89 wrote: I would be willing to vote Bullzeye. While llama might be reaching with his reasoning, Bullzeye made a comment on Day 0 after Epignosis drew some heat that looked like he wanted to sweep it all under the rug.
SVS brought up the specific topics, and Bullzeye classified it all as "jokes", and that Day 0 is good for a laugh. And in the very last game, Bullzeye's baddie partner was (unjustly) framed and later lynched based on things that happened Day 0.
Besides, do the baddies even have btsc? It doesn't look as though they do since one of them is searching for the others. So why would I defend Epi? And why would I do it in such a weak way? BF was the only person who really associated my comments with Epi, even I hadn't until he felt he had to defend himself.

Re: The Flash: Battle for the Gem Cities (Day 1)
Incorrect. BF didn't have the will until day 1. On day 0 we all chose our items and received them at the end.

If I genuinely thought he was bad and didn't have anyone else to check. To be honest, if I was that role I'd just go with the flow and hope for the best because I wouldn't want to draw heat for vigorously defending someone who wasn't even one of my team, or defend them and have it fail.
Day 0 was the sidekick thing, clearly he wasn't actually looking to recruit the next Robin, I found it funny that some people seemed oblivious to the fact it was a joke. Just like people seemed oblivious to the fact Llama was screwing around and isn't actually as dumb as he was acting. This whole thing he's doing with Elo reminds me of LMS. I don't believe he has any real reason to suspect her and is in fact just trying to push a lynch for no reason.

Re: The Flash: Battle for the Gem Cities (Day 1)
I didn't need to defend, I was on the attack. You're being nonsensical. How did I do a no u? I pointed out something suspicious you did and suspected you for it. The very definition of a no u is that you suspected me first.
Also, I think the sidekick comment was a very clever way of trying to accomplish what I've asserted previously that fits in with the theme and appears silly enough for day 0. While still accomplishing said goal and doing it sneakily. Epig has asserted he wouldn't be careless, but I don't think it would be obvious except that I pointed it out.

Re: The Flash: Battle for the Gem Cities (Day 1)
I said people are taking jokes too seriously. You seemingly saw that as "BF is a baddie because he's questioning Epi" and then said "Oh, are you and Epi teammates again then?". That to me looks like a pre-emptive NO U just in case I decided to build a case against you later on. Which I still don't plan on doing, just in case you're worried.blindfaeth wrote:I didn't need to defend, I was on the attack. You're being nonsensical. How did I do a no u?

MM - I'm pretty sure I didn't get my key until quite a while after I'd voted for it. IIRC day zero was really quick and Llama moved us on but didn't have time to properly set up day 1 or something.

Ika said Day 0 that we couldn't do anything until Day 1, then said he/she wasn't going to do anything once Day 1 rolled around, unless asked.
So I asked him/her a couple questions.
Another question ika, do you identify as male or female?
