Golden wrote: ↑Sun Apr 29, 2018 2:58 pm I don't at this point see dunya as bad but I have previously noted she is also Lunalee compatible so if she is bad, at that point I'd feel very secure that Luna was between her and Colin's conduct.

A Luna vote is still very much on the cards for me.

When I realized that the Oracle was something written by a player, I thought Luna's comment after it might indicate that she is the Oracle role.

The rules very expressly prohibit any kind of role-hinting so now that you point it out I think the opposite is true.

Spoiler: show

We have received word of a prophecy of the pythia from the Oracle at Delphi.

Choutas is clouding his eyes with a focus on principles only
Dougall looks great and he should be a beacon for rational thinkers
Listen to words from the gods who say Golden and Empee are townies
Speedchuck is trustworthy, Luna and Kyle we can safely rely on
Persians amongst us, but sloonei was lynched and we cheered to the heavens

I can't believe my luck, guys. I was literally just town confirmed by an oracle.

Long Con wrote: ↑Sun Apr 29, 2018 1:08 pm I like a nova, dunya, or Choutas vote based on these recaps. Lunalee also looked like she might be a teammate, but I also have a Civ role in mind for her.

That's me treating you as a Civ. If you're bad, then keep going at it, I'm always a low-hanging fruit.

A big long post that I'm not gonna quote. Dom calls out Colin for his shady Day 1 vote, but then also calls Golden out for calling Colin out first. It seems that he disapproved of Golden's vote for sig in response to Colin's vote, and a big long discussion immediately followed between the two. That is not the object of my analysis right now, so I won't comment too much, but the line of inquiry looks very genuine from Dom. He saw something from Golden that he didn't like and he picked the hell out of it. Good look.

Colin is second from the bottom on Dom's rainbow, only ahead of yours truly. Thanks Dom.

This post doesn't need to be long. Dom spends the rest of Day 2 holding Colin's feet to the fire. If this is a bus job, Dom was very aggressive about it. Given the climate in the thread at the time, it's not impossible, but I'm not going indulge in that much tinfoil on Day 3 when things seem to be going relatively well. Dom is a town read and was one of Colin's most vocal opponents.

Golden wrote: ↑Sun Apr 29, 2018 4:00 pm LC, I did a quick check.

The rest of the views in the oracle are very blatantly and clearly not Luna's views as at the point in time she would have had to write this. Go look for yourself.

I don't really worry at all. Being right in mafia is not something I lose any sleep over.

Choutas isn't bad. Not a hint, just judging a sudden four vote wagon virtually out of the blue based on not much at all.

OK, Choutas could be bad. I didn't like his approach to me on day one at all. But I still don't like the ease with which that group of four came together. Too easy.

Please?

Because they can do better. Because it's easy to hide when you're just barfing posts for the lolz.

Ask Rico how I feel about Poppy and youtube video posts, for example. I've lynched him twice for making IDGAF posts, and he was scum one of those times.

Quin wrote: ↑Thu Apr 26, 2018 7:25 pm I looked at both of Sloonei's votes (in ISO, mind so idk about timing) and have no idea what "out of context" means. Day 1, he puts down a pressure vote on Colin and moves it later. I wouldn't expect him to leave it. Nothing out of the ordinary there. Day 3 he voted Colin after a criticism of his vote. What am I missing?

Quin (holy shit it feels good to be able to actually type his name again, no more Kwin for me) doesn't suspect me for my Day 1 vote of Colin. Thank you quin.

Quin wrote: ↑Fri Apr 27, 2018 8:20 am im voting colin because i still don't have an answer to as why sloonei's colin vote look bad (it doesn't)

He joins the Colin bandwagon, though it seems more in defense of me than out of suspicion against Colin. I appreciate that, and given that Quin is a newcomer with a blank slate I like this look. If he's bad there's enough ammunition for him to pin a vote on me, and Quin has a history of suspecting me hard in games so it wouldn't even be particularly alarming. Townie point for Quin, absolutely no favoritism due to him being my only supporter in the thread.

Sorry I must have missed where that was questionable?

i wasn't around when it went down to have the same sense of whatevertermyouwouldusetodescribeaneventofsignificanceinthiscontext as everyone else. i'm calling things as i see them and i'm calling that sloonei's vote isn't suspicious and people acting like colin and sloonei are sure things is making me flip out.

Wrapped up in a larger point here is that Quin does not think Colin is a sure thing. But he voted for him on a day when there were really only 2 options. Still, I'm not actually seeing a stance on Colin from Quin. Somewhat understandable given his late arrival to this game, and I appreciate that Quin was not afraid to involve himself in the action right away. But his vote, again, was more of a defense of me than a suspicion of Colin. @Quin what were your thoughts on Colin as Day 2 unfolded?

Lean town on Quin.
