I'd never be this loud as scum.

You had a 142 posts in two days before subbing out of LotR. You have 115 here thus far. Granted, that game overall double the post count of this gam at this juncture.

Your second point is exactly my point. I spent all of Day 1 begging people to post. I wasn't nearly that aggressive in LotR, nor would I want to be.

We’re 4 hours from EOD. You’re on track to hit close to the exact post count in that game. You’re inadvertently making the point opposite of the one you’re trying to make.

No I'm not. This thread is moving at a much slower pace than that one was. Especially on Day 1. Go back and look at it. The thread was not moving and I was losing my mind. As a result my big dumb face is everywhere, so it's super easy to pull out posts and tinfoil them to death.

Both my Sig and Lorab suspicion are somewhat tied to my Sloonei suspicion. Sig moreso.

Lorab.

Why?

At this point, I’m pretty open to cases cause nobody is following me.

Do we have a player list for the other tribe?

Of the people who have expressed suspicion of me, I find's sig's suspicion to be the least believable and authentic. He has not put any real pressure on me, but just gone along with Jack's case. On top of that, he completely reversed his position on me when Jack presented his case even though nothing about me had changed, and he's justified this reversal in vague language, as he has throughout this game so far. I have not been convinced that his suspicion of me is genuine.

INH posted one in Day 1.

sig seems.... well he doesn't seem too bad but he doesn't seem good either. his posts in aggregate show a progression of thought that I think looks like it could legit. 2 hangups, I don't fully understand his vote-for-self gambit, and what he expected to get out of it.

I also didn't like this

sig wrote: ↑Mon Feb 26, 2018 9:43 pmI just ISO'd Kyle I'm not very impressed he hasn't posted much yet, but what he has posted seems blendy. He also voted for Ninja when we had two close wagons which I disliked.

based on the fact that the existence of my food poisoning would have been a thing he would have learned of during his iso of me, and my explanation that eased this suspicion was a rehashing of things I'd already explained.

LoRab was bad in Fiddler on the Roof. I'm at work right now so I don't have time to reflect on all her posts there, but I remember that she wasn't able to produce strong reads, and those that she did have were stated vaguely. I think it'd be premature to say she's fallen into the same pattern here (she hasn't stated strong reads yet, but then who has?), but it's something to look at and keep in mind. If anyone wants to compare these two games, go ahead.

how?

In other news, Jack coming out swinging is a good look, although I don't get his statement about wanting to lynch himself if he was the button role (didn't play that game).

lol wut?

INH Day 1: “Lynch Jack cause he’s not here.”

Sloonei pressing the button in CC123 ruined the plan and took away my favorite Syndicate role ever. I hate the button.

But I’d never actually self vote unless there was some advantage to it like if I had a revenge kill and was tied with my mason partner for votes. Probably never gonna happen.

He posted a player list for the other tribe.

Does that mean he’s a witch? Or just more resourceful than me?

Who wants to bet that their thread is twice as long as ours by the end of Day 1?

Oh for sure.

Man, I wanna be on that thread.

I’m kidding. I love you all equally. But I wanna play with SVS when I’m not bad. Least I don’t have to worry about Speedchuck one way or the other.

boomslang has relatively fewer posts, though they're longer and contain a decent amount of reads. biggest complaint? I don't like the fixation on the 70% thing re: sig, and this post looks weird to me:

Ok, what's this "70% sure" crap? You either did or you didn't, and you should be able to check your PMs to verify either way. Also, I must not count as anybody, because I definitely responded in the affirmative about the haiku.

the emotions represented in this post don't make sense to me in response to the post they're in response to.

Fair point. I still think BS is town.

Am I allowed to vote Speedchuck? He draws mafia like 75% of the time.

You are allowed to vote for any name you can see in the poll.

I think LoRab is bad y’all.

There is a bit of a resemblance to that past scum game that Sloonei posted, and her lack of conviction is making my belly button itch.

I feel like we should outweigh the other tribe and pile votes on one person or else there probably won’t be another lynch. I would suggest LoRab.

I want Sloonei to stay another phase because of the argument is that he is manipulating the thread (which I’ve posed as a possibility) he’s also been all over the place and I feel like that’s hardly manipulative but grasping at lack of information.

Also I’m not gonna be around for EOD so if you’re looking for another vote for whoever it is you’re looking to vote for other than LoRab, I’m MIA

Ok, I just caught up on everything from my last post to the end, now I need to catch up on the stuff before that I missed, lol.

At the moment, I don't understand why Sloonei is getting any suspicion.

But then I don't really get any of the cases right now. I still only feel a mild ping of Boomslang and I would want to do an ISO of him before I see if my feelings about him from Day 1 have changed.

Wow, lots of linki.

You don’t understand it or you disagree with it?

Tell me about your opinions on my Sloonei/Sig w/w case.

I actually don't see the comparison between this lorab and fiddler lorab? early game fiddler lorab at least one announced intentions and thoughts on relevant players, even if they weren't strong, meanwhile here she's not actually pushed any topics at all and her vote was for Sloonei for peer pressuring her? like for sure I am not saying that her posts here are the ingredients of a civ, but fiddler lorab (mafia) put effort into making it seem like she cared about the roof

In retrospect, my thought process on that might have been dumb. My idea was that Mafia would have more incentive to lie if they hadn't sent in a haiku, so if someone suspected a player as Mafia, they could lie-check the haiku thing as a barometer of trustworthiness. I think that thought process stemmed from my frustration over sig.

You thought about JoH being Civ more than me clearly.

You don't like killing your friends more than you don't like killing yourself? This doesn't feel like a real answer. What's behind the "mainly" here?

And if I've thought about JoH more, I'm curious to hear your answer to your own question. Or were you just trying to stir discussion without actually believing JoH was civ?

I think that thought process stemmed from my frustration over sig.

what kind of person would have the forethought to lie about doing a haiku but not have the forethought to have just done a haiku when they signed up in the first place? I also don't necessarily think a civ who hadn't done a haiku would have a good reason to tell the truth about it?

The only weight I give to the haiku/no haiku issue is that some players might be apt to play differently depending on whether or not they can survive a lynch. I see no reason to be concerned about it beyond that.

we have an hour and a half and basically no consensus at all

Kylemii wrote: ↑Wed Feb 28, 2018 5:21 pm we have an hour and a half and basically no consensus at all

Who's your top suspect and why?

If asked the same question I just asked Kyle, I'd choose sig. The number of gripes I've expressed about him is higher than it is for anyone else in this game. My biggest point of uneasiness is that he has rately managed to express a suspicion in terms that are not completely vague ("odd", "pingy", "bad", etc.).

Could also get behind a Boomslang vote right now. I'm open to every other name as well, but those are the two I have the most reason to vote for.

Ahhhh crap these days end early! And I'm still at work, fuuuuuuck.

Okay. Thankfully, there's not much to read, but my brain right after teaching all day is not so great. I shall do my best!

[mention]Marmot[/mention], you placed a joke vote on me and then removed it. This leads me to believe you think I'm town. Why?

Hilarious thoughts while I'm reading this (mostly unhelping mudslinging) thread (meaning no offense - it's just mafia as usual):

What if...NO ONE was bad in our tribe? Perish the thought. But it would be funny.

Unhelpful* because I can't spell apparently
