~whew~ That was a lot of reading.
I agree with LA that a catch up can't be done in 12 minutes. (Especially after finishing mine, it felt like 3 hours!!!) So Boats may be a good place to have a little look see.
One of my other pings as of right now are (I hate to say it, and I'm apologizing ahead of time because you know I love you hard) bea. I do know that in many games (especially if she's working a lot) it can take a while to get your feet under you, I experience that as well. But so far there has really been so much wishy-washy posts and "I'm clueless" posts... that it doesn't sit completely well with me.
I thought the points made (by who, I sure cannot remember by now) about boo were interesting and worth looking into as well. So that is another ping I think is worth looking into.
Along with that I would like to look into Vomps a bit more, though now I feel more inclined to look at the other 2 first.
Also, as I read the alleged case against Llama, it did not read true to me. Now I know that's super easy to say after the fact, but Epi really seemed so laser-like and focused in his attack on Llama, and Llama remained calm and defended himself in a very civlike manner. Also Epi, for some of us, when we say "so-and-so reads civ to me" that's the quick way of saying we've noticed patterns of reliable, and logical behavior there. I personally do not choose to make long explanations about why someone may seem civ to me - because I don't like painting targets on civs. So sometimes, I might say something like "I don't think I'll be looking that way" or something similarly vague to express that I think someone is likely civ. (Now of course, that's susceptible to change as well, if it's a civ BTSC partner, for example - I will go down swinging hard in those cases as I'm sure everyone who's played much with me can attest to.

)
Anyway, I know that Epi may look like an easy target now after having led the charge against Llama, but honestly something there isn't sitting well with me. I'm not placing Epi at the top of my list, but he's someone I want to keep an eye on and see what develops there.
That's about all my brain can handle for now!
Linki and such.
