Are you on the toilet right now?
No, I am outside at the burn barrels, burning some garbage from our home. We live on a farm, and that's how we take care of burnable garbage. I have probably posted from the toilet at some point, but it is far from a regular practice, I do my business and get out, not sit and whatever.

I worked from 5pm to 10pm EST tonight, so I just finished my catch-up of that whole time. I expected to be off sooner (like an hour sooner) but that wasn't possible. So I snuck into a bathroom and cast my vote quickly on my phone. I doubt I would have changed my mind about MM even if I had been fully caught up, and I'll probably go after him next time he self-votes on Day 1 as well. So sorry about the vote-and-dash, I just needed to get my vote in within the time limit while at work.

Voting from work bathroom, I don't agree with people who think rabbit is being genuine. I think he's being overly dramatic in his posts in order to sway people. Also I trust MM, don't understand the votes for him.
Be back soon.

I voted Mac to go along with making a tie for fun after I decided to lay off JJJ. It wasn't because I suspected him, it was just for spice. As I often am, I was at work for the last couple of hours of the lynch, and I didn't bother to switch it (during a sly duck into a bathroom to check on things) because I saw that Tranq was getting lynched whether I switched or not.

Hello fellow... uh, well, I don't farm anymore, but I can relate!
I'm suburban-raised, but we sold our house and moved to Black Rock's mother's house on the farm for reasons. I'm not a farmer myself, I just sometimes feed the chickens, drive the tractor, get hay out to the horses, fence repair, weeds/burr plant control, plus any digging, burning, heavy lifting, or most things that require skill, strength, and ingenuity. I do it because my wife loves animals.

I don't understand the connections between Sloonei the item list and Epi's death, can you go over that plz

Getting a thorough examination from me is a rite of passage here. You learn to love it. It becomes soothing, warm and familiar eventually.
I'd vote Lunalee. Might be a couple of layers of OMGUS there, or maybe her behaviour deserves it. Has she voted opportunistically? I have mixed memories.
MacDougall wrote: ↑Fri Apr 27, 2018 10:01 amThis is where you indie claimed. It's not obvious in the thread based on who died and who is trading to anyone except you. Because you're in the Hellenic League, and you have BTSC with the other guys in the league and knew what they were going to do and you can see something in the items that have been taken that makes you think Sloonei is indie.

Don't bother with Sloonei for now, we have bigger fish to fry
Okay junior. Don't come in here and try to shit all over my work without explaining why all of a sudden you have such a great town read on him that you want to completely take him off the table. Explain why.
I never said he's town but I'm fairly certain he's not mafia. Refer to my post where I said I will address this later on. That doesn't mean we should ignore him, but I'm less worried about him for now. He ISNT off the table yet for me.
I'm much more sure of Colin being scum as I've mentioned him with more certainty than his buddies. [VOTE:

This post is yucky.
“Don’t bother with Sloonei. I didn’t say Sloonei is good. Sloonei is good. Plz Refer to previous post that doesn’t actually explain anything. I’m not saying to ignore Sloonei except that I did. Suddenly, Sloonei is back on the table for unstated reasons.”
You clearly missed what I was hinting at. Mac saw it and referenced it

The point I was trying to make about the items was that when someone trades all three, they have to pick an alignment. In other words, I anticipate a indie sloonei will be picking soon potentially. I'm not 3p though and I've said it several times

Colin what do you think of Sloonei?
Sloonei has a cryptic style. He plays the same whichever the faction he's in. He was always one of the hardest players to read on rym.
By the little I've read him post he's same guy. A diplomat.
I went searching for the reason why Choutas is voting for me. This is all I can find. I don't even know if this qualifies as a suspicion. [mention]Choutas[/mention] what is this?

Marmot voted for me? In a poll that ends on my birthday. I'll happily return the favor for him since he so kindly gave me his vopte instead of his customary Day 1 self vote. Wouldn't want him to feel too off missing that vote on Day 1 that is normally behind his name...

Careful, retaliation voting makes you look scummy.
This is a weird post. "Weird does not equal bad" has been the mantra of this game, but I have to ask about what motivated this post, @@Lunalee? It reads oddly threatening, like you are trying to setup a suspicion of daisy for later. Do you suspect Daisy or do you not?
I do not suspect Daisy right now.
MP asked the same thing:

Why would you care how Daisy looks?
Just a friendly warning. I did this in the image mafia game, and it made people suspect me later.
Responding to ancient posts because that's just where I'm at right now. MP and I did not ask you the same question. MP asked why you care how Daisy looks. I asked how you read Daisy, MP asked why you were concerned about her appearance. Better stated, my concern is that it looked like you were trying to indirectly establish a suspicion against Daisy without coming out and stating it firmly. You say you do not suspect Daisy. Why not?

I believe that one of LC and MP is bad.
I believe that one of Golden and Sloonei is bad.
It would make me laugh if Mac is bad.
As far as big talkers go, that’s my thoughts. Mostly fit reads. Very strange not being a part of the action. I don’t have as much a grasp on the flow while looking as a spectator catching up. I can definitely see why that is hard for people.
Too many people that have good defenses. I find myself even nodding to some of Luna’s posts on day 2 (like that MP and LC both seem scummy). I mean hell, I know MP can work himself up in any alignment but cursing always surprises me with that guy. LC is making some stubborn statements that I seem to remember from GoC (like his irrefutable smugness in MP’s guilt). I mean, he’s just winking at us to lynch him.
I’m willing to trust Mac though. Just gonna be a sheep vote this day and follow the big heads since I ain’t one of them atm. There’s gotta be some bad guy(s) in there somewhere, steering the thread. It’s a bit chaotic tbh.

Scotty's and Luna's votes are just bandwagon jumps. That's exciting.
Scotty and luna both, tell me why you find the case against me so compelling. And if you were free to vote for anybody else on the poll today, who would it be?

I am semi caught up but stuck in meetings with managers all day. I have some thoughts I'll share before end of day I promise.
I have broken the Colin and Sloonei tie. I had day 1 concerns about Sloonei and his ColinIsCool vote. At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if it was early distancing masked as a pressure vote on day 1 after everyone questioned him about it.
I have more thoughts about Sloonei I'll share before eod. But for now, I have a bigger scum read on sloonei than Colin.
I have some questions for some Colin votes I'll ask later too.
I expected there to be a lot more meat on the bones of my votes when I saw there were 5 of them. Mac made a case, but he's not even voting for me. This is 4 votes and the most substance I've seen on any of them is that my Day 1 vote for Colin was somehow hypocritical, which is completely off the mark.

My automation project is taking too long but I’m enjoying it, I got “exceeds expectations” on my performance review and I think I can catch up from page 35 in the next 4 hours.

And Mac if you’d been here I would have joined you in pushing the thread in another direction. I regret that MP had to leave just when he did. I was trying to catch up and never fully engaged with him in real time, that could have lead to better results.
Ugh, I just have to respond to this. I feel like a giant egghead for the sig mislynch. I officially can't read the guy, and I should have trusted my earlier self that was townreading him, because I got caught up in the moment and really thought he was the best option we had available. It was pretty difficult to develop any counterwagon at the time, but I regret my actions; I should have just stuck with Luna or went somewhere else I guess.
Ew.

Explain.
You're apologizing and distancing from a D1 civ lynch. It was D1, the odds were always that it would be a civ. That's how the game works. Why would you feel guilty about that?
I'm not distancing. At all. That's the opposite of what I'm doing; I take full responsibility for my sig vote. Of course I regret it. Why wouldn't I feel guilty about mislynching a fellow townie?
"I voted him, but only because I didn't believe in myself" (paraphrased) - aka you let yourself get pushed into a Sig vote by the thread. Convenient way of deflecting blame onto others without having to specifically name anybody.
And again because it's D1. Can't make an omelette without breaking a few eggs. (Unless it's JaggedJimmyJay's heist game and speedchuck and I are scummates )

I haven't seen anything to sway me off of Colin and I don't luna's vote or her posts today, but she's also a new player who I can't read well.
I'm not in a position to state reads with much confidence and I've been sucked into the self-defense vortex today. It's stupid and I don't want to be in this position.

Sloonei
And I remain thus far unconvinced by other cases.
This doesn't particularly alarm me coming from MP. He does not hide his emotions in games and isn't afraid to get swept up in momentum or impulsive voting. He'll follow voters if he feels like they're onto something, and then changes his mind a thousand times and feels bad if he's wrong.
What is your experience playing with him?

Colin abstained from the Day 1 lynch by making a speech about disliking the main wagons and planting a meaningless vote on luna right before the deadline, and has said next to nothing today.
No, I am outside at the burn barrels, burning some garbage from our home. We live on a farm, and that's how we take care of burnable garbage. I have probably posted from the toilet at some point, but it is far from a regular practice, I do my business and get out, not sit and whatever.
