Does anyone else feel like this is going to result in a 1-on-1 lynch?

Posted: **Thu Jan 22, 2015 11:30 pm**

I picked Lorab because I'm a weiner.

Whose only voter died mysteriously? Cool... go for it..?

What roles could do that? The Hatter, Gollum, Voldemort... outside chance of The Doctor, but it doesn't seem like Doc's style to kill people who voted for him.

I feel like it's some sort of tandem event, like the previous partnering outing.

But seriously, pick whomever you want in this one.

Nijuu, you've been up my ass all game. Let's go.

Fight Club? What's that?

Gollum? Roxy might have had the Ring? It could be something unrelated to the lynch of course. There is a secret role.

i voted for Lorab too. The man said pick whoever you want.

I should catch up on the thread, no?

Okay. So I've been reading the thread in spurts as I was able tonight (multitasking and whatnot). The main thing that I noticed was how many times the suspicions/majority votes seemed to change. Interesting theories on quiet/inactive players, and some nastiness along the way which was unfortunate. I am running on 2-3 hours of sleep from last night and I have been fighting the urge to fall asleep where I am all day. That being said, while I see some interesting cases, and I'd like to check the validity of this sudden popular vote on Russ, I am far too tired to do so, and I am not comfortable voting without checking. So at the risk of spreading the vote/looking like whatever, I'm going to vote LC, because my opinion on him hasn't changed. Might look at the whole changing aspect of people's opinions/votes tonight when I'm more awake, might not. Sleep will tell. Sleeeeeep.

So good night, good luck, and I hope the outcome is favorable. And I hope I made some semblance of sense above

Uh, at the risk of spreading the vote, you voted for the guy with 1 vote at the time (Mine) and spread the vote?

Posted: **Fri Jan 23, 2015 12:10 am**

LC, don't worry. I understand if you're still super pissed at me. You're not an asshole. You're a player I incredibly respect and always will.

Everyone should totally pick me in the poll.

Now how did I do that?

How could I possibly be on the baddies' side? I don't know who they are. Even if my Narrator was bad, that still would only be one bad role that I would know.

LOL, what a fitting end to the day. Seriously. No other end would have been better. I love it.

Hedgeowl got lynched after all.

Wow, this is so brilliant. So lucky we had a non-participant, for once. I'm very glad that role is gone tbh.

I think he more outed that he's on his own side, and doesn't care who dies.

But you know very well that as the members of a badie team start to get lynched, that the voting records, thread comments and everything start to build up and it becomes increasingly easier with each baddie teammate's death to find the rest of them. Thus, if DH were a suit, for instance, you would have no problem indirectly moving a lynch away from snowy, if you thought snowy was his teammate, as protecting snowy would mean protecting DH. Right?

Hypothetically, sure. I would never know for sure, but you're right that I could make educated guesses.

Unfortunately for that theory, I picked a civilian.

Do you deny that DH is that least a recruit? You were adamant that you would not vote him today.

I was already in a shit mood. Having caught up with the thread, I'm speechless.

I'm voting to fight Long Con. Who else would I fucking pick?

Posted: **Fri Jan 23, 2015 12:29 am**

Also, for all of those that are declaring not to trust me and that I'm the one that caused everything this past lynch, think twice. My one vote wouldn't have done anything. And plenty of people that listened to me. Honestly, I was just trying to find non-recruit baddies.

I do deny that, since he is not my recruit. I can see why you'd think that, BUT, I've said multiple times I intended on lynching DH. I changed my mind only upon realization of a certain possibility.

But since Russ denied hinting, perhaps we should have just lynched him or DH.

Posted: **Fri Jan 23, 2015 12:35 am**

In fact, I would bet there's at least one baddie in the original voters for Russ.

I just checked, and switching my vote (Don't worry, I switched it right back) Fucks up the voting order. Guess I have more homework to do than I thought

I agree.

Also, if it helps, DH, I'm pretty sure the original Russ voters were me, zeek, Snowy, Made, and juliets, in that order, but after that it gets a bit hairy.

Posted: **Fri Jan 23, 2015 1:05 am**

I still can't get over that lynch result.

So awesome.

Posted: **Fri Jan 23, 2015 1:27 am**

Also, timmer, you should reconsider your narrow-minded approach to DH and Snowy.

Didn't Rox say she was sick earlier? So how would her vote for Snowy on D6 have anything to do with that?

Are you suggesting that Roxy died of a poisoning or something?

When asked about her death comment, she replied:

"elaborate that I am sick? Ok. I have the flu and been running a high fever there was talk of the hospital but I promised my doc I would take a couple of days off which I have. "

I think Roxy was just sick, and that her vote for Snowy very well may have had something to do with her death. Call me narrow-minded if you want, but everyone knows what you're up to, my man. Snowy is bad fucking news.

Posted: **Fri Jan 23, 2015 5:53 am**

What mechanic would account for that?

I am gonna vote for sabie. I am not much of a fighter, and I doubt she has a lot of fight in her.

Posted: **Fri Jan 23, 2015 7:41 am**

I think it's extremely likely that Roxy had her voting controlled by the Mad Hatter actually, as something unfortunate happens to you if you don't comply.

Posted: **Fri Jan 23, 2015 7:45 am**

Voting for me had nothing to do with Roxy's death.

And seeing the utter panic at the end stages of this vote reminds me of my feelings on the day 1 vote. This is what it's like for me often. I don't like it and it's one of the reasons I am leaving.

I may not have said much about DH, timmer, but neither have I about LC. I am avoiding that shit altogether. I thought Hedge might be The Doctor for some reason.

Nijuu has been after me all game for my Rey vote. She has been consistent, and is one of the people that doesn't have to do much explaining for her actions in the last lynch.

Of course, coming after me all game for a Day One vote is sketchy in its own right, but at least she displays some consistency in this lynch.

I will be interested in what you find. I re-read her maybe a cycle ago and couldn't find anything that made me more suspicious (I originally just had a gut vibe about her but could not support it with thread evidence).

Also RIP Roxy, I was pretty sure you were civ. Hope you feel better.

Re the first post: Sorry I forgot to thank you for your sympathies regarding the last lynch. It's true I have been focusing on myself too much, and not giving appreciation to guys like you who, despite being on opposite sides of the Mafia melee, can keep it real like that and recognize some unusual craziness.

Re the second post: Yes, I know. It's a point to think about. I went back to search her posts to see if she was actually suspecting me for just the Rey vote on Day One, and I found that defense of you interesting enough to share.

And I could be wrong, and she's a Civ, and she just legit suspects me, and you are fine with taking her down because she's not on your team. Or you're teammates, and your recent post was high-quality distancing. I am trying not to be biased with my opinion on that one, not because I'm unsure of your baddieness, but because I'm unsure of Nijuu's connection to you.
