Monkey Island [ENDGAME]

[Quin]

Voted Quin.

Wanna talk about it?

Sure

Nice chat.

I think you are bad. That day 1 self vote is still playing on my mind. BUT.....I was intending to vote Soneji and voted you in error. If we could change votes I'd do it now.

I see how the self-vote could come across as though I was trying to avoid the lynch. I wasn't avoiding discussion at all though, so you should keep that in my mind. It really was just an answer to an important question that I didn't think through the repercussions of.

[Epignosis]

Not comfortable witj this boomslang lynch

Me neither.

I really want to think that if Boomslang is good, Epi must be bad... Unfortunately the existence of 2 teams undermines this thought.

I'd love to hear the pretzel logical behind what you want to think.

Night 3

Time to master the sword! On Monkey Island, sword fights are won or lost not based on how fast your feet and hands are, but on how quick your wit is. A properly delivered insult will do more to demoralize your opponent than the sharpest rapier. For example, if you encounter a pirate who boasts "You fight like a dairy farmer" a response along the lines of "How appropriate, you fight like a cow!" will give you a sure victory.

To pass this test, PM me your cleverest comebacks to the following three insults:
1. I once owned a dog that was smarter than you!
2. My handkerchief will mop up your blood!
3. Soon you'll be wearing my sword like a shish kebab!

NOTE: This is not about googling the answers from the game and sending me those. Anybody can do that. This is about trying to be more clever than the game, so good luck.

Meanwhile, Boomslang has been lynched. He was Carla.
You have 24 hours to submit your night actions.

[Snow Dog]

said I didn't like it.

[Snow Dog]

This game is more chaotic than I'm used to.

When BR was lynched, I saw both he and you vouch that bussers were amongst the voters. While independently or in majority this may be considered healthy, but in a scenario where it's only 2, it reads as 2 non teammates.

[Quin]

Oh. The thread doesn't get locked. I'll do my Snow Dog ISO today then.

@Metalmarsh Have you heard of the Finnish band HIM?

No I haven't. Any specific recommendations?

Nope. I saw two of their albums in a charity shop today and I wondered if you knew anything of them.

I have heard this band, and regard them as one of the worst bands ever, but don't let that discourage you.

[a2thezebra]

All logic is pretzel logic. Vompatti is the only user on this site that fully understands this truth, even I have trouble accepting and implementing it.

[DrWilgy]

All logic isn't pretzel logic, for then all logic would be delicious.

[Long Con]

All logic isn't pretzel logic, for then all logic would be delicious.

Sounds logical.

Sorry I missed the vote, everyone. I took on a job in the house that was bigger than I expected, and it consumed me for the last few hours of the lynch, then I went to work.

Reading into Snow Dog's posts.

Spoiler: show

Is it possible to earn gold?

A question about game mechanics. I don't lean either way on this; I have a 'would a baddie be more likely to ask this on the game thread or in BTSC' thing going around in my head, but knowing the answer to this specific question wouldn't put baddies at any significant advantage makes this a null read.

Spoiler: show

I wish we had changeable votes.

Hey Snow Dog, what's up buddy? Are you bad?

Bad to the bone!

No, are you?

What do you think about MM's claim to have been sent the wrong role?

Why do you think that MM's claim about being sent the wrong role has anything to do with his alignment?

I'm just pursuing something that struck me as odd. It probably has nothing to do with his alignment.

I like this. Not every question has to be generated into some sort of read, but Snow Dog seems to be covering his bases to not leave any stone unturned.

Spoiler: show

Why is no one talking about me? This is odd for me for a day 1.

I like dog's entrance. (Note that my phone routinely likes to change his name to "dog" or "sog"). I don't like zebra's entrance. And motel room is playing very minimally and I don't mind the case against him, but zebra will be getting my vote if she doesn't check in today.

I was thinking of voting zebra too. Reason 1, he has only posted a bunch of emoticons which in itself is annoying. Reason 2, he is the first name on the list.

I don't like this. Earlier he said he'd 'reluctantly vote for a non-poster'. I think that there's a specific mentality for people who want to vote that way on Day 1 (as well as all other days tbfh), and that it's got a lot to do with the notion of 'they're not here so they're not contributing, and it would be rude to lynch a present player before them, so they're the next best thing to a mislynch'. This goes against that, because zebra was clearly here and contributing in her own way. Reason 2 is just whatever.

Spoiler: show

I didn't like Snow Dog's vote yesterday. I like it even worse today.

Just my two cents after the lynch. I'll be looking at him.

I'm not a fan of his voting record either, but his content has seemed genuine to me. I'll take a look at his ISO though and maybe I'll come up with a different perspective.

I don't understand. What is wrong with my voting record? I have been consistent. Explain please!

'I don't understand why you find a specific thing suspicious but I'll try and defend myself against it anyway'. This doesn't make me feel good.

I come out of this with a scum lean on Snow Dog.

[Quin]

Spoiler: show

Does anyone object to lynching nijuukyugou? If so, why?

Why do you want to lynch her?

I think it's a weak vote from Vompatti.

Here's my take:

If the Pirates killed MP, then the only players in the game that knew MP was Civ (if it's so) are the Cannibals. That's pretty simple to see. The Pirates, for all they knew, killed a Cannibal. The Civs know next to nothing. Vice-versa if the Cannibals killed him.... then the Pirates knew if he's Civ.

I'm not saying that Soneji did know MP was Civ (and is therefore a baddie), but it is a possibility.

Or, he just made a careless assumption that the baddies killed a Civ, and forgot to consider the other option. That's very easy to believe.

I haven't decided which side I believe yet. If it is a slip, then it's such a delicious catch and I would hate to disregard it. On the other hand, I could easily see myself making that careless assumption, so it's hard to bring the hammer down.

That's a good point. Both of these stories are believable.

But that leaves me in the same spot I'm in with regards to Snow Dog. I see reason to believe he's civ, as well as mafia.

What would it take to convince you I am not mafia?

I'd like motel room's opinion on this, specifically.

[MacDougall]

Bye Boomslang we hardly knew ye.

Are we really just gonna not discuss the fact that Wilgy hasn't read his role pm? Wilgy do you think that we should not lynch a player who refuses to become aware of their nature thus removing our ability to analyse theit play genuinely? You are scum hunting apparently but at what point do we have to have a stab in the dark and lynch you just in case? The longer we wait the more of a gamble it is.

[MacDougall]

Save me by voting zebra or Quin, everyone. Or, when I flip, use that to inform the trustworthiness of MP's reads. Wilgy and Nacho could be buddying up, as we saw in very early thread.

Well that isn't very nice.

Yeah, I revoke what I said. Let him buuuurn!

I also revoke my town read of him. That post is baddie as blazes.

It wasn't. Didn't look like it either. You faked this post entirely.

One sec.

Dammmmmmmmmmmmnnnnnnniiiitttttt

Also I changed my mind sig is bad.

[MacDougall]

I also think Vompatti is good.

I might post more when I am not in the supermarket on my phone.

[MacDougall]

Oh. The thread doesn't get locked. I'll do my Snow Dog ISO today then.

Faaaaaake you are bad too.

Not fake. Not bad.

[Snow Dog]

Again. Not fake reaction. i didn't like the Boomslang train. I haven't lynched a civ yet. Maybe look at someone who has?

My point is that voting for a non-poster infers a specific mindset that contradicts your choice of vote. zebra was not a non-poster.

Not in the way that you are seeing it. But the knowledge of one's teammates, if they exist, should inform one's play to some degree.

By all means lynch me if you feel that that is the best means of winning. I'm a constant unknown and I acknowledge this. I do note however, If I am bad, the other baddie team must kill me for victory. It's only a matter of time before the baddies are itching to remove the unknown as well.

Also what makes you think it hasn't been discussed? That was Ji-San's spiel day 1.

Day 4

Congratulations! You have mastered the sword. Only two more trials to complete before you're a real pirate!
Here are the winning comebacks:

1. I once owned a dog that was smarter than you!
"Indeed! It was his idea that I shit in your loafers."
2. My handkerchief will mop up your blood!
"Well, first you should clean our your loafers."
3. Soon you'll be wearing my sword like a shish kebab!
"Soon you'll be wearing smelly loafers."

It's a joyous occasion indeed, but sadly, not everyone will live to enjoy it.

Epignosis has been killed.
Quin has been killed.
You have 48 hours to lynch a baddie.
