They let it transpire from real life too much. :srsnod: I remember them on PA often sharing the same pov's, taste in music and such, but when you'd bring this to their attention, they'd go wtf no we have very different opinions.

But I knew better. :srsnod:

Seriously, outside any sort of game speculation, I would have surprised if MP and BWT wouldn't have been linked somehow. Although I'm not sure if Mongoose would have been aware enough to distribute the roles as such...

Tbh this seem a bit premature considering that Vomps has not even been lynched and also you do not believe in the Vomps suspicion either you have avoided all the major vote getters and also avoided suspicion from others for it though now I am seeing what Bass has been saying.

I think since we have time others should look at your posts and vote record bc they read as if you have something to hide.

Are you suddenly suspicious of vomps enough to vote for him?

The only value is what others have given it. I personally think we would learn just as much with a Made or MM lynch - their are some who have not even commented on Made and some who are quietly backing him up. As for MM he seems to be suspciousof everyone who did not vote for Vomps - except himself. Do you see value in everyone putting their eggs in one basket?
Should I vote for someone I am not as suspicious of as others just to conform? tbh that does seem like what a civ does - conforms.

But why does it have to hinge on vomps being bad? Why do I have to think that you and vomps are both bad?

Yes I am more interested in voting vomps today than before, partially due to his reactions, and partially due to the numerous votes he already has, and the potential for a different lynchee continues to shrink.

Roxy, you keep responding to every question with some variant of "don't tell me how to play." Who is telling you how to play? Who is criticizing the way you have been playing? This is not something I have seen happening.

What other reason have you given to find me suspicious except my votes?

You seem even more suspicious to me bc suddenly you are willing to conform and vote for vomps - someone you said was prob not bad but ofc today you see suspicion from Vomps lol. You voted others before this lynch - why, suddenly this lynch do you feel the need to conform and vote Vomps?



Llama - that is not true. I have asked should I conform to your suspicion just so I am not suspicious. That is not saying let me play my own way it is asking a serious question - should I stop hunting baddies and just go along with the crowd? No one is telling me howto play - I can tel the difference.

I could not disagree more. If we put al our votes on one person do we really learn anything? Lynches are the only tool a civ has to learn from.

I'm not sure I see your point... I guess I meant that one basket has to end up the most full. If we spread out the votes more, it would show some other suspicions, but thread discussion does the same, doesn't it? Or do you mean when we get the lynch to be REALLY close, the tiebreakers are more meaningful votes? The first few lynches were not "all eggs in one basket", what did you learn from them?

Your Day 1.1 vote pinged me. Not because of the potential vomps save, but because of your sudden suspicion of AP with no previous mention of him. I also suspect you for some of the things you've said recently regarding your playstyle, especially the comments about your baddie playstyle.

I do not think it is a serious question, I think it is a rhetorical question, but I will answer it anyway. No, of course not. But who is suggesting you do that? No one is. I do not find you suspicious because you don't suspect Vomps. Lots of people don't suspect Vomps. I find you suspicious because of the timing and placement of your votes, which I think I've been quite clear about.

Perhaps I am misinterpreting you, but you seem to be very defensive of your playstyle, even though no one has critiqued it that I have seen.

It's not a back stroke, but each day brings new information, and new points of view, you know this. I wouldn't be voting Vomps if it was JUST about his play style, I had enough of that with Wazzipi ages ago. But it's the sense that he is actively TOYING with his play style now, and the looming problem of two lynches that appear to be potential saves of him.

I agree with what you've said llama. I looked at the posts in context. You never mentioned saving a teammate, though it was probably implied since you think vomps is bad. But playstyle was never brought up. I mentioned several pages ago that I don't think SVS or Roxy would save vomps (as you know) if they were baddies together, but that doesn't appear related to the current discussion. And as I said, I don't think her first comment about playstyle is something that a civvie would say.

I also wonder why Roxy is no-u-ing me, but not you. Perhaps its because I have garnered suspicion and votes while you have not. Her suspicion of me has only been a reaction to my case against her.

But he very well COULD have been lynched in both of those lynches. Regardless of if he is a civvie or baddie, he's going to vote in his own self-interest if his neck is on the line.

I honestly have no idea what is going on with Roxy now. I'm not sure if it's because I'm reading her responses as overdefensive and emotional (which I will admit I do tend to read Roxy as that a lot), or because I just don't see the cases on Made or MM. Granted, I haven't really spent a lot of time looking at MM or Made because I feel far more confident about Vomps and Ricochet.

While I feel more strongly about Ricochet, I am perfectly fine with a Vomps lynch too. I think one of the two of them needs to go for me to start to expand my horizons on how I feel about other players in the game.

Past 2am here and dead tired. Will stick to voting for Vompatti, because of nothing in my discontent with his gaming having changed, along with what potential save votes for him and the NK might signify (but which will be more determined by the outcome of his alignment).

It seems I caught a bit of fire with a fragment of my disapproval of Vomps' own D2 vote, but I'll await judgement for it tomorrow, if necessary. I agree I may not have put it in the best words or insisted too much on this detail, but I still found it dubious, given the full context.

Day 3: Welcome Back, Potter

Alfonso Cuaron is a Mexican director perhaps best known for Y Tu Mama Tambien, Children or Men and Gravity. He is also known is certain circles as being the director for the third Harry Potter film, which has a few homages to Y Tu Mama in certain scenes, if you know what to look for.

"He won the BAFTA for Best Director last year for Gravity," announced Ninjambalaya.

"Aren't he and two other dudes known as 'The Three Amigos of Cinema?" asked LongCon.

"Yeah, him and Alejandro González Iñárritu and Guillermo del Toro," answered Timmer helpfully.

"Hot," said Lizzy.

Vomps looked at Lizzy. He ignited from desire and the cafe exploded.


Compare with the street shoot in Azkaban below to see how his style carries through.


Notice the rotating shots and muted palette on both films. These are films grounded in reality, but with a melancholy filter of ethereal madness overlaid upon them.

Vompatti has been lynched. He was Francois Truffaut.
It is now Night 3.


You have 24 hours to vote in the night poll and send in your PMs.

Angels & Demons - Not a big fan of Dan Brown but for some reason I love this film and Ewan McGregor in it.

But not a complete surprise. I only voted that way because by the time I voted it didn't matter and I hadn't interacted with anyone all day to feel out the thread properly.
