"The Management must be getting very desperate now!" observed Agent E. "Unfortunately they've also handed another one of you your notice."

Mr. Snowy has been sacked by The Management. It is now 2:00pm. You have 24 hours to oust someone.

Rip Snow :/ so what are we thinking guys? It could be plausible to give FZ a chance and try a different person today. Do you guys agree with DP maybe being the other teammate or what do you suggest as possible candidates?

#413

A message from Mrs. Slocombe:

Had to call the maintenance man again; the dishwasher was leaking something terrible last night. But I should've remembered the rule about strange men - the moment they set foot in the house, my pussy goes absolutely crazy! Long story short, by the end of the evening, my kitchen was a wreck, my pussy was soaking wet, and the man vowed never to return after such a ruckus. I don't know who was harder to calm down - him, or my poor pussy. I certainly won't be having that awful man around again, either!

You just don't know a person until you give them a second look.

I'm around. I do wonder where everyone is. The last baddie could be staying quiet to keep away suspicion. Unless the last baddie is YOU

hehe! I notice you keep bringing up MP. Are you saying we ought to be suspicious of him? IMO I thought he was just busy. He did say he would be busy (this was when the game first began). And TH...can you try to communicate your thoughts on him?

#419

Hi FZ.

Imma try to make heads or tails of what you are saying. It looks like your sentences are just jumbled up, but taking each one line by line and unscambling -- then they make sense.

How is MP acting weird, precisely? Because he hasn't been around as much or hasn't been as talky? I'd ask more but I don't wanna put words in your mouth.

#420

In fact. I am surprised that I can decipher your insanified phrases. Usually it is very difficult to understand an insane person. This makes me wonder if you got insanified orders from the host or if you did then to yourself in a last attempt to look more civ.

Hi Mongoose!

#421

don't like TH care and acting they are MP. Maybe are they maintenance. the last harder Maybe trying is baddie .

So, separately:

Maybe are they maintenance
the last harder Maybe trying is baddie

Look Blooper? into

#422

There are lots of different insanifiers with different settings. I have a few links I looked up for Russti.

Other than supposition, why are you guys suspecting FZ?

I will be rereading TH post work tonight to she if I see what FZ sees.

I will reread TH as well. I am afraid he is usually too good for me to ever tell his alliance though. I shall see. If TH and MP are maintenance like FZ thinks, should we even worry about trying to get them out? The maintenance can win with either team (says page 1).

#426

Okay FZ, I think you got it across - you want think we should look into MP, TH, and Blooper? I'm not sure how to read her at all. Will think about what you have said though. Agreed with Eloh that TH is a hard dunebuggy to ride - I didn't know he was bad in the last game we played until the final day.

I DO care about this game. A lot. Everything I do has a reason behind it. I do feel bad I've been late for every vote though; it is actually INCREDIBLY uncharacteristic of me. That is for sure.

I was gone Monday through yesterday on a getaway with my girlfriend and besides that I've been pretty busy lately.

So does anyone want to hear a joke?

Why did the sock cross the road?

#430

Why did it?

Did you guys go anywhere fun?

Mongoose wrote:Why did it?

To get to the laundromat!

We went to Perrysburg, OH, about a little over three hours north. There really isn't anything particularly amazing about the area (like Orlando or anywhere like that), but there's a couple's romantic getaway sort of hotel which was really nice, and we ate at some nice places, checked out a record store in Toledo (super awesome), etc. It was great to just get the alone time. It was so relaxing, exactly what I needed after tax season, just two months delayed!

What do people think of FZ. and TH?

Why did the llama cross the road?

#432

I'm so happy y'all had fun!

MovingPictures07 wrote: Why did the llama cross the road?

It's to tell me how wrong I am, correct?

#433

MP, I don't think FZ is bad. I just don't, I don't know that I have been all that successful at reading her, but all the reasons people seem to have for thinking she is bad are things i think are open to interpretation. And i feel that people are interpreting them in the worst possible light, while i have not seen her posts that way at all.

I hope to potentially reread a large part of the thread tonight, especially as it relates to the known Management, and also TH, to see if i can see what FZ sees.

#434

I'm re-reading FZ and TH. I'm not inclined to vote her, since (at least according to appearances) she has been consistently suspecting and voting for people who have turned out to be bad, even when others did not. Yeah, that could be distancing, but even the much-contested joke she made with Vomps wouldn't make sense if she, Vomps, and Rey were management, as she was contesting between TH and Rey at the time. So, she's currently off my radar.

Which brings me to TH. He's...hard to read, to say in the least, mostly because he hasn't posted much at all in the game. He hasn't said anything since the last lynch poll. Trying to lay low, perhaps? I'd like to see what he has to say in his defense, and I'd also like to see what others might about him that I'm missing.

#435

So:

to trying hunt isn't MP.

to TH isn't hunt trying.

hunt? DP Is to trying.

Something is on going.

I am sorry for not posting much in this game. Speed games do not work well for my schedule, and it's why I normally don't like to sign up for them. I care about this game, but I don't always have the time for it, and the 24 hour Days interfere with how I usually like to play mafia, because there's not much time for an extended dialogue or time to fully explore my thoughts.

I don't know why FZ is suspicious of me, but she continually tries to paint my actions in a negative light even when it does not make sense. This is the only accusation she's made against me with any substance:

I do think his playstyle here has been a bit more "off" than usual.

When does the poll end?
Boogs and everyone else:

I think TH and Vompatti are on the same team as Rey, or TH is and Vomp isn't. Look at how hesitant TH is here. He's giving both reasons for why Vomp could or could not be a baddie. He's not voting, to see how things go and if he needs to cast the vote on Vomp or not later on. Seriously. I can't believe no one is even suspicious of him.

Yes, I gave reasons why Vomp could or could not be a baddie. I can't read Vompatti, and more often than not he's a civ when he gets lynched for his unusual behavior. I am always hesitant to suspect him unless there's compelling evidence. But saying I didn't vote because I was seeing how things were going makes no sense. I made that post very very late in the lynch cycle, and the lynch was unanimously for Vompatti at that point. Furthermore, I did not mention anyone other than Vompatti in my post. It doesn't make sense that I would withhold my vote to save Vomps by voting someone else. No one else was going to get any votes yesterday, and I contributed to suspicion on no one but Vomps.

I think FZ is the last baddie, and this post is a big reason why. At the time, FZ had not even voted yet either, yet she accused me because I hadn't voted. Then she made this post, addressed to Boogs, right before she put the nail in Vomp's coffin. She's already using the fact that Vomp will be lynched and flip bad to turn around and connect me to him. FZ had mentioned Vompatti many times before this post, but never with so much damnation; she is taking Vomp's badness for granted here in a way she had not done before, in order to tie me to it. It's a type of foresight that makes me think she knew Vomp's role, and wanted to get out in front of it and spin it against me before we even learned his role.

So I read a few peoples' posts. Blooper pings me most of all. FZ or TH seem unlikely to me. But I don't know I don't feel right about Blooper. I'm drowsy and just wanna sleep so yes that's where I'll vote.

Hope I'm onto something.

#440

I have read quite a bit and it only left me confused, lol.

Posts like this lead me to think TH could have been Vomps teammat, it is sooooo waffly:

BUT I don't see how Reys teammate could have thrown him under the bus so cavalierly as in this post at a point when there were LOTS left to vote:

HOWEVER...... (I reached the embedded quote limit, so I had to cut up my post, to be continued)

#441

Especially since soon after TH makes this vote Vomps comes in and tries pretty hard to save Rey (I had to remove a few quotes from this embed, phpbb hated it the way it was):

Vompatti wrote:
FZ. wrote:
Vompatti wrote:I still think Dom is bad, but I have a feeling it might be best not to vote for him today.
Why? And why DP?
Because it seems it's either DP or Rey and I'm not particularly suspicious of either.

Vompatti wrote:
FZ. wrote:So last day you told me Rey was an option, you were not serious? Also, if you're not suspicious of either of the two, why did you choose DP over Rey?
I could see myself voting for Rey but it would be a gamble. I voted for DP because he had less votes and I like close polls.

Linki is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Mikołajki Pomorskie, within Sztum County, Pomeranian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.

I don't see a team working this way, essentially throwing both Rey & Vomps under the bus to save TH, basically, with the cred he gains for this lynch in my mind.

nijuukyugou wrote:Busy weekend; graduation, father's day, etc. Thoughts:

a) I'm confused. No one seems to be discussing possibilities for why Sorsha was lynched instead of Eloh on Day 1 (or hour one, or whatever we call it). Eloh says she knows why she was saved, and that seemed to be the end of the conversation. Not that I'm particularly pinged by her, but I'm curious as to the lack of reaction or even mention of it. Slow day, perhaps?

b) The lynch train on Rey. I check back and the majority of votes are on him, for various reasons that I don't find sound (piggybacking a vote, not suspecting people enough, etc). Not enough evidence for me to vote him.

c) On the line of thinking about Rey, I find Boogs' "arguments" against Rey to be more suspicious to me. He kept accusing Rey of things he didn't do (changing his vote, being all over the place, etc), while he himself was actually guilty of changing his vote on Day 1 and being "all over the place" with his accusations for me, FZ, Rey, Sorsha, and Vomps. Rey seems to be the only person he's been persistently against, and for reasons that don't seem well-researched.

Voting Boogs.

It has also led me to kinda take a harder took at Blooper. Although her early vote for Vomps kinda belies it a bit, since I know everyone is, "But distancing" all game every game, but I see a lot less baddie early distancing than I see baddie early trying to keep teammates alive.

Still not sure what i am gonna do.
