I'm sorry Dom. I know I haven't done a good job conveying my suspicions of you into something that you can defend with. I'll work on shaping it into a legit case.Dom wrote:tbh Turnip Head, maybe I'd take your suspicion of me seriously if you had a single reason to back it up so I can actually say something about it. But I think that's what you're going for.
I'm not sure how i'm suppose to respond to this? With the amount of post and votes available to draw from, iunno, this just feel like a backwards approach. More like you want me to be rather than genuinely thinking I might be.Long Con wrote:So, Made as a baddie... he could have voted AP and given Canuck the ability to lynch AP, but he didn't. If he believed Canuck and I are both Civ, then the lynch was already cool whether it was two or three necks on the line. I'm assuming that since no one mentioned it, no one active at the end remembered Mongoose's tied-lynch ruling. SO, he didn't want to see AP in the mix for this lynch.
MM quoted my response, but I will elaborate that my host policy of tie = no death comes out of my belief that lynches are the domain of the civs, whereas the night belongs to the denizens of the dark.Made wrote:Let's ask! Yo Mongoose, what happens in case of a tie?Long Con wrote:Well, that was lucky. I do recall someone saying that they make no one die when the lynch poll is tied. I thought Roxy said it, but was it Mongoose?

That is also my favourite video of all time! I mean, I may have liked some other videos more, but this is the only one my mind goes to if it comes up.
I might be on board for a Made/AP lynch... but I'd be more apt to vote for you or TH tbh.Canucklehead wrote:Fuckpants. I definitely had Bass as a civ.
So. Today's question, boys and girls, is whether I stick with my gut (and Bass's) and vote RoxNip, move forward with my Team MM + AWOL hypothesis and vote Made or AP, or vote Dom for being cheeky and trying to get me lynched yesterday.
Thoughts?
To be honest, I hardly remember that. I'll read back and get back to you.Turnip Head wrote:Dom, could you explain what specifically prompted you to vote for me when I got lynched as 1.0? I'm not looking for a link or a quote, just in your own present-day words, what you were feeling/thinking when you cast the vote?
Upon a quick skim back-- TBH I got fooled by MM. I thought you might have information on the role you speculated might force votes. I just thought you might have effed up tbh.Turnip Head wrote:Dom, could you explain what specifically prompted you to vote for me when I got lynched as 1.0? I'm not looking for a link or a quote, just in your own present-day words, what you were feeling/thinking when you cast the vote?
I had a feeling you wouldn't remember why you voted for me, which is why I worded my question the way I did, but I've got to consider your answer a bit.
I was fooled by a baddie-- how else am I supposed to sound? ) 
Also, I really agree that we need to find a consensus......unforunately, I just don't exactly know precisely who I feel comfortable being in consensus WITH.....Long Con wrote:I'm willing to come to a majority consensus on any of those three, and I will vote later so as to avoid any voting spread crappiness like last lynch. :nod:
Damn you, Canucklehead, I agree with this entire post. If you are a baddie this time, I want you to know that I'm going to go over your whole game extensively and remember every nuance that I can, and then assault you with it should you act in a similar way in a subsequent game.Canucklehead wrote:AP is a crapshoot, because there's little to go on post-wise, from either Sabie or her reincarnation....so that just leaves pure speculation (which I'm certainly not opposed to engaging in!
Nips is tough. I was definitely willing to agree with Bass' suspicions of Rox, but after yesterday I honestly can't decide if his actions make me waaay more or waaaay less suspcious of TH....I'm currently leaning towards more, but I will admit to being a little gun shy because of my uber failure to read TH in his previous incarnation.
What about Rico? I've been feeling civ from him allll game......but I do have a niggling terror in the back of my brain that he's just fucking schooled us all this entire game.
Just so you know.I would be most onboard with a Turnip Head lynch of those three.Long Con wrote:I suspect Made, A Person, and Turnip Head the most.

Do you have thoughts on Roxy/TH?Ricochet wrote:Sorry everybody. I got sucked in by puzzle solving in Death Note. I'm not even good at it, but I caught the bug as soon as I saw a few things I could solve.
I'm open to more reasoning on the inactives being potentially bad, because I do acknowledge this is way beyond worrying now that we are so few left. For one, the baddies eliminating active, significant players one by one is likely telling, but in hindsight we probably shouldn't have let those players fly by either. But I'd like all the replacements to be discussed, with both views on the past player and whether you find the current players has made himself suspicious with or may try to conceal. I promise to come with thoughts on them and others tomorrow.
Has Made explained his vote at all?Turnip Head wrote:Dom and Made are my top two. I tried building a case that explains my concerns about Dom... but tbh, my suspicion of him is mostly gut, followed by a hunch that I think he killed Llama due to their back-and-forth right before Llama's death. So, pretty circumstantial. And I'm not sure I should trust my gut re: Dom, as I don't have a stellar track record of reading Dom or anything, so I dunno.
Made's vote from yesterday stands out as the shadiest to me and I still haven't heard an explanation for it. I'm leaning toward voting this way for now, unless he says something that makes me reconsider.
To the people who suspect AP... what makes him stand out above Vompatti to you? They are basically the same to me at this point. I think there's at least one baddie that isn't playing a high profile game, but I would have no idea how to pick out which one it is without some voting records to back it up. And we haven't lynched many baddies, so voting records don't really show anything. It feels like a shot in the dark.
This was his vote post. I asked him about it earlier but I don't think he's posted since then. It just seems like a really weird reason to vote for someone, but Made is weird, so :P I still want to hear from him.Made wrote:Ok this might be stupid, but i think i'm right (also, I thought i had another hour to think about it...) Canuck seems incredibly genuine to me, so i'm going to vote there. The biggest memory I have of canuck as a cornered baddie playing hard to sympathy card, and i fell for it. Hard.
I really hope i right....
This is an extremely cognizant post from AP, in my opinion. I tend to agree with him that baddies like to start targeting low posters for lynches as they inch closer to endgame. But this is also a very reactionary post. He throws the suspicion back at LC for suspecting him, which puts LC in a tough spot if his suspicion of AP is genuine. AP's playstyle already makes it hard to make any sort of case against him, but now he has the built-in defense of "Baddies like to target low posters".A Person wrote:Hi. I don't think I am trying to fly under the radar, I've just not been posting. If you want my thoughts on the game, I think I'll vote Long Con today. Normally I'm too scared to take risks because I so often end up killing civs, but we're in peril of losing so there is not much to lose at this point. LC was the one to start the recent crusade against low posters, and I think it's because we're easy targets at this point. If they kill off a couple low posting civs, they win.Ricochet wrote:Also, AP, kindly address this. Or anything.
What post was this???Long Con wrote:I've also referenced a "I would have voted Metalmarsh" from AP that pinged me a little. That is the one difference that made me vote for him last time.
Ok context. The reason I felt I had to commit to a Canuck vote is because this(from misfits): http://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewto ... 214#p77214 Canuck( as well as svs, bloops, and dh) are players who i've been grossly wrong about, so i'm hesitant to release a theory i have just because their pathos is on point.Turnip Head wrote: Made, can you explain the thought process behind your vote for Canuck yesterday? I'm still a bit confused about what you were trying to convey there.
She's the only person alive that had a link to MM that i could find (aside from Roxy (Speaking of which who replaced her?)). Sure it could had been an unlucky civvie, but i didn't want to abandon in the link because of the chance it was just a coincidence, especially since DF's connect to MM was an actual coincidence.Made wrote:Ok....I've caught up, and as of now, I want to vote Canuck just because it makes sense, but i'm trigger shy.
A thought exercise:
For sake of argument, If Canuck isn't bad and connected to MM, then who is? In the case of DF's death, I anyways, Immediately thought Roxy or Canuck when he flipped civvie, but--and this definitely tainted by the fact I can't vote for TH-- Canuck isn't the same way. If she isn't bad I have no clue what direction to go in, which is terrifying.
Also going to reply to post and things.
LC and canuck again, especially in light of Ap's most recent post, as well as DomTH wrote: Who's got your eye for today?
Not true?Canucklehead wrote: For some reason Made 2.0 felt civ to me when he first jumped back in (maybe its just because he was actually participating/posting?), but his whirlwind of extensive reading and quoting and such yesterday (and then voting for none of the people he spent the day reading and building suspicions on) was odd....even for Made.
wait, time out.... how did you know what kind of play I'm know for?Ricochet wrote:Thanks for clarifying, LC. In that case, I really don't understand either why Made did nothing all game long. Probably because Made.
when I read this initially, I thought that it was a reference to this postCanucklehead wrote:Fuckpants. I definitely had Bass as a civ.

which makes far less sense thanLong Con wrote:So, Made as a baddie... he could have voted AP and given Canuck the ability to lynch AP, but he didn't.

Could be a baddie connection between AP and Made.
So that's one large strike back from you.Canucklehead wrote:Sabie/AP has been AWOL all game. I have a theory that MM's teammates were not around to help him out during the multiple times that he was under serious fire, nearly lynched, and then finally successfully lynched. I think the poor rodent got stuck with a no-show on his team, and was therefore kinda hung out to dry, resulting in me being the only person not willing to vote for him on his fatal day.....Turnip Head wrote:Can you give me the case on AP one more time please?
......that's kinda it, lol.
This is how i've been reading his most recent post. When I think Dom i think either aggressive af, or on point af and i'm seeing neither this game. That said this is a read on Canuck, so i'll return to this.Canucklehead wrote:I keep vacillating back and forth with Dom. I know he has objected that it's a gross mischaracterization of him, but it really seems to me that his play this game has been 95% composed of glib oneortwo word questions meant to provoke and needle.

Long Con wrote:That's my take on Sabie/AP thing. That distancing thing with MM is what draws my eye the most. *votes AP*Long Con wrote:Ok, so Sabie had no real on-topic posts, and then was replaced by A Person, who has had basically one on-topic post, plus two more discussing how he doesn't know how the Uwe Boll lock works. His one post is "I had wanted to vote MM but the thread was locked
So that's a likely place to put my vote.
