JaggedJimmyJay is still voting for sprityo, and is one of the lynchable 8. What have you to say for yourself, Jay?
Is there some reason I shouldn't be voting for sprityo? What is the case for a civilian sprityo? I have no reason to trust him. I am open to exploring other options, and am currently trying to determine whether a case against Kyle actually exists or if he is just a terrible wagon that sprung from the void (before I came in here today he was probably my least likely vote of the 8).

Sell me on a civilian sprityo if you think that's the universe we live in and I will listen.

You dip your french fries in mayonnaise.
It’s not that he looks civilian, but he looks like he has a good chance to be modkilled if he doesn’t show back up. So to me it seems like a wasted lynch.

I don’t have a strong reason to read him as bad besides his bop it shtick possibly being a front.

I’d expect you of all people would see that logic? Or am I wrong?
We have a facilitator who will work to remedy that. I don't expect sprityo to bail forever when it can be explained that I meant no offense. If he's bad, I don't want him alive. :shrug2:

Anyway, you'll see my case. Judge as you may.

You have never won a game of Cricket in your life.
I read your case, and sprityo doesn’t look particularly great in that light, but in a game like this, why wouldn’t Mac just modkill him soon regardless? I feel like we’re wasting a lynch here if it goes that way.

There's the rub. I believe Mac when he says he is open to modkilling, but that doesn't mean he is itching to do that to people who signed up to play his game. It's going to take more than a day phase of quiet, or else Lilefer is already modkilled right now. I think it's considerably more likely that sprityo finds his way back here when things are cleared up than he is modkilled for never returning.

I don't know that, but I am not relying on the host to fix my problems for me. That will work itself out.

Daisy is right all around. I had been reading and reading and reading. And I didn't know who to vote for. So I showed the list to Ephraim and asked him who I should vote for. People randomize all the time (or at least used to) without any flack.

Long Con wrote: Tue May 22, 2018 12:34 pm There's a big difference, to me, between Golden being the one who made the Night Poll, and Golden revealing that there were hidden results behind the choices. When I thought Golden had made a face-value poll, it made no difference to my opinion of which choice I wanted to win it.

Like, say there's two t-shirts, and I like the blue one, but T-ShirtCo. company says "Hey cool guy, the red shirt is the best one!" and I say "I like the blue one though" and T-ShirtCo. says "What if I tell you :slick: we made BOTH SHIRTS!" and I'm like "Wow! But I like the blue one!" Then they take the sunglasses off and say "No, but seriously dude, we made the blue one super-itchy. It's the worst." Then I say "Red me up!"

Am I missing the crux of your issue?
Yes. I caught what you are explaining when I went back into your ISO. Originally I thought, that's weird that LC said he changed his mind at that point because that's not how I remember him responding. When I went back and looked it over I saw that you changed your mind when he explicitly spelled out what he meant when he said it was booby trapped. I got that bit once I went back to find what originally pinged me and sort out why.

My problem that I am trying to decide how I feel about, is this: as a civ why wouldn't you ask yourself, "Would a civ be more likely to say this or a baddie?" Because yeah it would suck if something bad happened to me because I voted for the wrong option, but the bigger question I asked myself when he said that is what it told me about Golden. Put yourself in the place of someone who has a role that can secretly attach things to a poll. Then attach an alignment. As a baddie, that kind of role has more power for your team if it is secret. If it become known it would take only one poll to sort out your likely alignment. Then you have a now useless power and you will likely get lynched. If you are a civ and you did something thinking it was in the best interest of the civs only to realize you've made an error in judging how the other civs would perceive things. I could see trying to stop something that was likely to hurt the civs. You've revealed your power and made it possibly useless, but what good is it if your power ends up hurting your team more than helping it?

That was what motivated my move. Golden looked very civ to me and he seemed desperate to move us off the option and revealed that he wrote the poll. So I moved to the option he voted because I assumed it was the safest option and in the best interest of the civs.

Your first interest in all of this looks like self preservation. You only moved when you suddenly think it's booby trapped, the rest of the consideration doesn't seem to be there.

But I am struggling with whether this is just a difference in approach or the way we think, you know? I frequently have trouble making sense of people who approach things differently than i would, it feels suspicious to me and I am trying to sort if that is what is happening here with you. I couldn't understand why the conversation and debate over the pros and cons of the various options continued after his revelation because of how I looked at it. To me it was like, "Why is this even a discussion, clearly it makes much more sense for a civ Golden to say that than a baddie Golden, so who cares what result we are voting for? I trust he has a reason for not wanting us to vote for it and that the safest option to vote for is the one he is voting for." So I am having a hard time understanding other responses to his revelation in general maybe... I don't know. I'm probably not making sense to anyone but me (and maybe Golden :haha: )
I have questioned whether or not Golden is Civ. And it was only self-preservation that made me switch, I don't get what other factors you want me to have considered. You think I should have analyzed Golden's possible reasoning behind it all if he's good or bad? I mean, that was going on as well. I just believed him when he said that option 6 was trapped. I'm still thinking about "If #6 was a trap, were there extra results from the others? What were they?" Golden hasn't mentioned anything about that.

This was a big block of text that I had to read fast, because I'm going to work right now. I skimmed ahead... JJJ made a post on Kyle, I'm just going to leave my vote there, mostly for how he reacted to a couple of analysis posts I made about him. Sorry I don't have time for more right now.

It wouldn't shock me to the core if Kyle turned out bad. I just have no good reason to believe that he is. I think he tends to have a fluffy post history by nature. I'll take a quick look at his GOC content when he actually was bad and determine whether a meaningful parallel can be drawn.

"hoarding" gross. I hold my vote in every phase in every game til the end when I can make the most informed decision. this isn't news. i've been that way since 2008

eloh I don't understand your angle here. that post was a collection of my notes that I was making while reading through each player individually and also catching up.

I don't understand the argument that I should have focused on defending myself and convincing people not to vote for me when at the time the only people voting for me were long con who I responded to, and lapluie who hasn't posted anything. my priority for this day phase has been to come to a stronger understanding of the 7 other players on the poll, as that was the intention behind voting that night poll option in the first place, me being lynched wasn't even a realistic concern for me until basically an hour ago.

So guys not gonna be here at EoD.

This is not "imma do nothing because I'm a survivor" but more "too many things to do IRL so mafia has to be put as a low priority for a few days". I've been having headaches due to too much time in computer/phone, partly because of too much mafia and gaming, and partly because I have an important exam on Sunday I need to study for. So yeah something is going to the backburner and it's not studying.

I'll vote myself because I don't want to interfere in this lynch. [VOTE: DDL] aubergine

Believe me not believe me, I have explained myself. See you later if I'm not lynched or whatever.

Uh I mean I can oblige sure

Lilefer: he’s the guy at the barber shop that took an online class to get certified and you’re anxious because you’re his first guinea pig- it could be bad, but you probably know what you’re gonna get

Jack: he’s the Santa Claus at the mall with missing socks and facial hair that doesn’t match the unkempt rental beard- he may not bring you the type of presents you wish for and you probably shouldn’t be caught alone outside by his van at closing

DDL: he’s the priest that most definitely has a drinking problem that runs into his slurred sermons at 10am, but you can’t deny that he preaches valuable lessons behind his words, even if he himself doesn’t seem to follow them.

Colin: he’s the dog that has been trained to place his whole body under your head when you’re experiencing a seizure and has been anxiously waiting for his moment

Kyle: he’s the guy that no one invited to the party but he says some funny stuff to alleviate your doubts- it isn’t until the party is over and everyone wakes up with hangovers that you realize your silverware and duct tape is gone and your desktop keyboard keys have been rearranged

Luna: she’s the girl that you sometimes see at the library, but you’ve only been 3 times over 7 years and each time you’ve spotted her in there in the non-fiction section- you begin to wonder if she’s just really trying to learn about medieval carpentry or she’s just stalking you.

Sprit: he’s the guy that

1. I am ignoring cbob, sorry dude. I'd love to hear your thoughts when you are not insanified, but I have enough trouble keeping up as it is. props to those who have been translating though.

2. Long Con said something odd, but I am not certain it really means anything. I'll go look for it in a bit.

3. I will not vote for sprityo today. Not because i think he is civ, but because his upset seemed real and I want to give him a chance to cool down and hopefully come back to play. He is a nice guy and it's not like him to fly off the handle. I think there was a genuine misunderstanding and I'd like to see it get cleared up. :( I don't know what I think of his alignment.

4. I wish Elo were in this poll, I would vote for her. It's not ok just to decide you don't like what the majority chose so you're not going to participate in any kind of meaningful way. Voting for someone because your son said to is not an acceptable reason to vote, it's the same as voting randomly. That and not participating in the lynch gives us zero to work with when someone flips and it's highly suspect and unacceptable imo. I already thought you were bad and now I wish I could lynch you immediately. At best you are being an unhelpful civ and at worst you are scum. i tend to think it's the latter.

5. I need to figure out who I am voting for.

How are those thoughts Kyle?
thank you, those were good thoughts, i actually agree with you on eloh and long con and I will elaborate on why later if I get the opportunity

Lilefer: he’s the guy at the barber shop that took an online class to get certified and you’re anxious because you’re his first guinea pig- it could be bad, but you probably know what you’re gonna get

DDL: he’s the priest that most definitely has a drinking problem that runs into his slurred sermons at 10am, but you can’t deny that he preaches valuable lessons behind his words, even if he himself doesn’t seem to follow them.

Colin: he’s the dog that has been trained to place his whole body under your head when you’re experiencing a seizure and has been anxiously waiting for his moment

Kyle: he’s the guy that no one invited to the party but he says some funny stuff to alleviate your doubts- it isn’t until the party is over and everyone wakes up with hangovers that you realize your silverware and duct tape is gone and your desktop keyboard keys have been rearranged

Luna: she’s the girl that you sometimes see at the library, but you’ve only been 3 times over 7 years and each time you’ve spotted her in there in the non-fiction section- you begin to wonder if she’s just really trying to learn about medieval carpentry or she’s just stalking you.

And If I really get my head in this game now, I will have to say that this is the pingiest post of those who are eligible for a vote. Knowing he could be voted off, Kyle writes a post that lists his thoughts on all the other players -a cut and dry, formality-type post rather than really trying to convince us we ought not vote him.
eloh I don't understand your angle here. that post was a collection of my notes that I was making while reading through each player individually and also catching up.

I don't understand the argument that I should have focused on defending myself and convincing people not to vote for me when at the time the only people voting for me were long con who I responded to, and lapluie who hasn't posted anything. my priority for this day phase has been to come to a stronger understanding of the 7 other players on the poll, as that was the intention behind voting that night poll option in the first place, me being lynched wasn't even a realistic concern for me until basically an hour ago.
I simply don't agree. You being lynched was a realistic possibility (and should have been a concern) as soon as Day began when you were 1/8 instead of like 1/30. Today's lynch situation is unique and I don't feel like your response to it is civ-minded.

You'd be a below-average NFL middle linebacker.

I don't think that's irregular. I don't really take definitive stances early on, most of the time I'm not even sure how I feel about different players until a few minutes before i've voted.

I'm not the kind of player that points at someone and says "hey you're bad because you said this thing" and throws a pinecone at their head, I'm the kind of player who notices people doing weird shit and asks them about it to try and determine their if I believe in their motivations and then later if there seems to be something weird going on, usually a contradiction, I throw a pinecone at their head.

I mean that’s fair that it’s your playstyle to hang back- I’m usually more definitive as a player (which gets me in trouble good and bad) so I may have my blinders on.

But you can’t deny that even still 3 (or 4? Idk) hours before EoD no one knows what you are going to do or even who you’re leaning. It’s like asking for coffee and bringing out beakers of coke, tea, and diatomaceous earth and saying “there ya go”

do you really believe that, elohcin? I mean sure I'm on this poll. I was on yesterday's poll too. I might be on tomorrow's poll as well. it's not different.

I wasn't a topic of discussion before just recently so why would my priority suddenly switch to convincing others not to vote for me, when no one was talking about voting for me in the first place.

If my name had gotten on that list and I cared to stick around, I would be telling the thread who we ought to trust and why (including myself at the top of the list). Then I would be hard core on finding the one person that seemed the scummiest and pushed for their lynch with as much reason as I could find. His list of players doesn't mention himself and why we ought not vote him. And, it doesn't really give us reason to vote anyone other than him.

my intention was to come home from work today and review things deeper and hopefully come to a more satisfying conclusion but instead i come home and find myself with several votes on me and a bunch of notifications to deal with, along with the emotional burden that I might get lynched away from having maybe my 4th coolest role of all time before even getting to play with it properly

It wouldn't shock me to the core if Kyle turned out bad. I just have no good reason to believe that he is. I think he tends to have a fluffy post history by nature. I'll take a quick look at his GOC content when he actually was bad and determine whether a meaningful parallel can be drawn.

The sprityo thing is irrelevant to the simplified poll or not. I’d still have reservations voting him. As far as low posters go, Lilefer is probably someone that I wouldn’t have a huge objection to voting, for the fact that he’s dropped off the face of the earth. But id rather lynch a big talker today

Or someone that was a big talker on day 1 and then disappeared today when they saw they weren’t on the poll
