Very funny.

Floyd it is.

You just put yourself in the lynch seat

Typhoony wrote:You just put yourself in the lynch seat

So vote for Floyd. I think we've got more than a couple minutes left before the day ends. :P

You'd need 2 more, besides me. If you vote Matt, my vote is enough.

I don't think Matt is bad. I think town is more likely to win with me dead than with him dead, and that's the worst case scenario for the day.

Best case scenario, we lynch Floyd.

... What?

I'll put a vote on Floyd for now, but I need to think this through. You're confusing the shit out of me.

When it's Day 2 of a game this small and I have no idea what my reads are, I like to resort to unorthodox ways of hunting scum. I think what is to be made of how different players reacted to my baseless confidence in the lynching of Matt is the most crucial element to examine today, moreso even than the lynch (though I may be speaking too soon of course). For now I'm willing to put my trust in Epi, because I don't think he would read Floyd as bad yet again unless he was quite confident with that read. That, and I agree with him that his vote is fishy. One of the fishiest yet actually.

So what'll it be, S~V~S?

I like it, Zebra! Maybe if a baddie knew that Matt would turn up Civ, they would avoid the bandwagon to try and look better. I have to look again to see what the Floyd thing is. A bit of skim and a bit of two-games-at-once makes me need a double-check sometimes.

I'm willing to bet this is what at least one of the baddies did.

So, me, TheFloyd, Bullzeye. That's the Matt-stragglers now. It ain't me. Ok, I'll go Floyd. *votes TheFloyd73*

a2thezebra wrote:So what'll it be, S~V~S?

I do trust Epis gut in general, and think he is civ this game. So I will trust him here, and go with Floyd. I don't want to see you lynched, and honestly don't know what to think about Matt.

Now that's what I call a Chinese Fire Drill.

I would be more comfortable with this choo choo if it was Bullzeye, but it beats lynching Zebra. I think.

I'm unsure about Bullzeye, and I don't want to contribute to a lynch that I'm unsure of twice in a row, especially when the first ended with a civ death.

I wanna see Matt's reaction to this

I think Bullz reacts in a much more negative way to unfounded suspicions when he is bad; here he just kinda rolled his eyes and went, "pffft".

Why do you think otherwise?

I have no read on Bullz, I was leaning very slightly civ on Floyd D1. That's it basically.

I really don't understand what's going on now.

We are people of faith.

Faith in Lord Skeletor.

In an alternate timeline, you are getting lynched today.

Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa dude

... but since we are all ACTUALLY in Purgatory (although TPTB swore we were not in Purgatory) noneof it actually matters. Nihilism ftw.

Because Matt says so and picked a role at random to claim?

Lucky for you it wasn't THIS timeline, eh?

a2thezebra wrote:Faith in Lord Skeletor.

It would be pretty ballsy to claim Sawyer early in the game, as a baddie.

Hmm.

I just thought of an ugly twist that would most definitely even the scales. Golden tells The Others a list of Losties that didn't survive the plane crash, at the outset of the game. I think that would be a great way to do a closed setup, roleclaiming-allowed game.

Yay nihilism!

Was Lost just spoiled for me? I was lookong forward to watching it! Kappa

@Scotty I haven't had the opportunity to catch up, only lightly skim so my thoughts remain the same.

Long Con wrote:Are we allowed to list players who have claimed and what role they claimed?

Absolutely. Role claiming and power role claiming are both completely legitimate, and so is making lists of what people have claimed (or what you perceive them to be hinting at)

Not really, no. Since many of us originally came from a LOST forum, it did not occur to me that LOST spoilers would be a problem. But that was not really a spoiler, it was more my bitter & jaded reaction to what might have been a spoiler ha ha.

Linki, ooo interesting. I wonder if anyone got my hints, probably everyone or noone ha ha.

I have to go to work, but I'm looking forward to going back over your posts and seeing! Did I hint?

TheFloyd73 has been lynched. He was:
[/quote]

It is now night 2.

So much for the bloody CFD.

Can we lynch Epi next?

I'm not putting the blame of this on Epi, he only voted. I was the one that turned it into a lynch.

I'm not putting this lynch on Epi either, but I'd still like to lynch him.

I see.

Because of what you said in these two posts, or is there more to it?

Typhoony wrote:I am tempted to vote Floyd for breaking this glorious tie, or Epi for not making it an even bigger tie.

But I'll change my vote to SVS for now, because she seemed to be setting up a vote on DF if Matt wasn't going to post something suspicious here, which he seemingly has done now. I don't see it, but okay.

Typhoony wrote:I'd like to hear more from Epi.

He hasn't made a case yet that made me go "wtf have you been smoking today" and it's almost Day 2.

All i saw was a hint at being one of the losties who were staying at the caves.

That would be:
Jack
Hurley
Jin
Sun
Locke
Charlie
Claire
Michael
Walt

The first four have been claimed already and I caught a hint from someone for the Locke role also. All of those roles can't possibly be in the game though as I'm sure we would have a Kate, we have a dumb redneck as well and Boone was DF. I guess it depends on which roles golden would include in the game but the list is pretty narrow for who you could possibly be.

Since golden says it's ok for us to list what people have claimed or hinted at I'm going to work on a list, I'm not always the greatest at picking up hints so I hope someone else would do so as well.

Now see, I thought that role claiming Sawyer would be too risky a move since he really si likely to be in the game. My role was on the plane, but Sawyer is a bigger character than my role. And even *I* could see what Epi was putting out, so if I could anyone could.

Linki,I said I was leaving the beach, not going to the caves. Very different things.

S~V~S wrote:I have decided to return to the beach, thus changing my story arc; even though Epi & I differ, I still believe we were both on the plane.

And Scotty, I was referring to Typh. He seems to be seeing something different than I am seeing. This both makes me nervous, and makes me want to second guess mysefl. Although on short eracquaintance, I also trust your judgment when you are civ. So there is that too. I have to think on all of this.

I took this to mean. Returning to the beach, away from the caves. How did you mean it?

Can we please lynch Zebra now?

Im Dawson... Roleless and boring

I see no reason for hinting at what we are since RC'ing is allowed. May as well and claim while we can.

This addressed specifically to Epignosis was wat I had in mind. But I meant I returned to the beach against my character arc. My character left the beach.

I almost thought this was too much tbh. Iguess not ha ha

Come on...Jethro?

Ok I get it now svs

And wilgy picks the lamest role to claim. I'm not sure I believe you, Sir.

That's fine. Anyone wanna counter claim?
