They are untrustworthy because I don't trust them, and vice versa.

The dirty diesels are up to no good. S~V~S has been scrapped!
It is now Day 2. You have 24 hours to decommission an engine.

She almost had to have been good right? There's only one baddie team after all... I do agree she seems an odd choice to take out. Could she have done or said something to earn the baddies' wrath?

Here's the text of the post you were both talking about:
Nevinera wrote:I've noticed a few things about the setup that I'd love to share, but if I point them out I'll almost certainly be scrapped tonight.
But everyone.. think about how the Narrows are going to play out, from various points of view.
And be careful, the early game is more important than usual here.
Point out any claimed 'grand theories' or 'marvelous insights'? I had some logic to share, and it was risky to do so.
I'm not trying to make out that you were playing up my post intentionally, or even that it would un-civ-il to do so if you were.
Just that it bore watching.

If the mafia has any players from my other games in it, then I probably didn't need to be worried really.
I'm like a suspicion magnet; I'll be at the top of every 'keep him alive to draw fire' list forever.

I just don't see anything. I've been rereading her posts carefully, and I don't see any sensical reason someone would scrap her. A few nonsensical ones maybe, and one real stretch involving the secret power..

It kind of sounds like you're trying to direct the discourse here.

Nev is either a bit touchy or suspecting everyone at the moment. Personally I think he is bad. A bad diesel.

Which post? You have three in which you said roughly the same thing, in increasingly shorter ways. I answered the first two, and my answers *more* than sufficed as a response to the post saying "I didn't misrepresent anything".

viewtopic.php?f=20&t=155&p=21559#p21621

That post was intended as a response to both you and Russ. I didn't *quote* your post because I find posts that involve a page of other posts quoted in them to be annoying, but I thought it was fairly clear who it was directed at. Since I put both of your names in the front.

Not everyone, no. Just you really.

That does make some sense. She was behaving as sort of general font of wisdom for the new players in other ways too.
Maybe there just wasn't anyone they definitely wanted scrapped, so they decided to take out the stabilizing players who have been around the block the most?

Bullz was asking what would make the baddies single her out for an NK. I was suggesting the good advice she was giving might be the reason.

I have an eye on Nev after his response to me, but other than that I'm not too sure. I haven't been the most active player so I may need a reread today to see if there's anything I missed.

I am still undecided, but I am uninclined towards Nev. There are accusations flying back and forth, but I don't find Nev anymore suspicious than Snow currently. I am doing some rereads, but find little to suspect except that Nev originally was absent. Clearly, this has been resolved. There are also many other players who have not posted much, including DP, who has ignored my accusation and lynch vote.

I feel like I haven't been active enough in this game yet, so I'm going to do a re-read and see if I notice anything else that piques my curiosity. I'm going to pay special attention to Nev and look for why DP has some suspicion.

But if they could only target civvies, that outs everyone they target as a civvie and towards the end it'd get really obvious who the baddies were. Would be easier for them to just not target anyone except for the NK if that were the case.
