Yeah I'm definitely not voting bea. I wish she didn't do that now because now some people will probably use that as an easy vote target.
Oh well, we'll see what happens.

That Bea has had enough of Boo's biased attack on her playstyle and just wants to show Boo up, so basically what you said. I could be wrong, but honestly how does this look like a baddie ploy? She's too committed for this to be a bluff.juliets wrote:TH I haven't voted for bea and I am trying to figure out the underlying context.

I agree with this. If you really want to get to the bottom of things and do your best to help the civvie cause, voting like that is a no no in my opinion. Especially with Boomslang, which has barely said anything this day. Seems like a really easy way to justify your vote.Turnip Head wrote:That Bea has had enough of Boo's biased attack on her playstyle and just wants to show Boo up, so basically what you said.

I'm more talking to the people who have already voted for Bea, and did so almost gleefully. MM and Boomslang. MM was already on my list, Boomslang has quickly found his way onto it.
I've been trying to figure out what to make of today and I am in the same place as you. I suspected MM already, but Boom had not been on my list before this. He is now though... I won't be voting Bea today, but I think this has made me feel like I was right to have MM on my list. I'm willing to put a vote on him with you today TH.Turnip Head wrote:That Bea has had enough of Boo's biased attack on her playstyle and just wants to show Boo up, so basically what you said.

I know, you said that. But a lot of people think you're not interested in finding Kiras either, so I would think you would be more careful with those accusations :P Seriously though, is the kind of behaviour you're describing, different from his usual MO?Turnip Head wrote:Click this post and then keep reading down the page.

Eventually MM makes a list of Kira suspects that fit a profile he seemed to have created on the fly... and until today, after being prompted by Bea herself to do so, he hasn't voted for or pursued any of those suspects. The question I ask myself is, is he even interested in catching Kira? The evidence says no.
I would love to point to the other times I tried to engage with MM in the same way as I did above, but after that exchange he tended to outright ignore my direct questions to him, skulking away into the shadows, only to accuse me yesterday of not bringing up any points about him. When I proved him wrong on that, he scurried back into the shadows once again. Hah!
See I feel like llama's game feels off to me. Despite having a lot of posts, it feels like his usual bluster and bravado is dialed back. It feels like he doesn't want attention. Which is why I suspect him. Most likely of a role like Misa or Mikami who are more vulnerable. And FZ, i know you feel like everyone is ignoring Llama but I'm not, which is why I mentioned him earlier. You aren't crazy, I feel like something is off in llama land too.Turnip Head wrote:I read them, and I think you made some good points about how he's been more one-track-mindish than normal.

I would want to question Llama more about this, but it seems he's been busy the past few days. He's someone that I would really need a full lynch cycle to deliberate on, so I'm cautious of trying to start a movement against him this late into the Day. You definitely made me think to put him back on my radar though, I had been ignoring his behavior as "typical Llama" behavior for a while.
Not only is that an inaccurate portrayal of what happened (Boo was the one who brought the most attention to Russ), it's also a horrible reason to justify a vote, because civvies make mistakes too.thellama73 wrote:I'm voting for the person who basically said "Hey Kira, look at what Russ's role is! You should NK him!"
Okay, I'm going to think of this a little more. I feel like if I vote, it's more because of what you say, and not because he's really caught my eye. I think I trust you more than I do most players here at the moment in terms of trying to help, so I'm not ruling it out, but we'll see.Turnip Head wrote:Well the difference is I know I'm interested in catching KirasAnd I don't need to be careful about my accusations because they are genuine
Metalmarsh doesn't have a usual MO. I've played exactly ONE game with him where he was a civvie, but it was a sockpuppet game, and he had a discovery role, and it was also his first game here, and he was certainly more interested in catching baddies in that one. I wouldn't feel fair comparing this to his other games because it feels like apples and oranges.
In other games where Metalmarsh has been bad, he's certainly been more involved than he has here. Despite his 13 pages of posts, very little of it relates to his own suspicions and thoughts. He's always just playing off of other's thoughts, commenting from the peanut gallery. That doesn't feel like detective behavior to me in the slightest.
Fascinating to me that Matahari paid lip service to the FZ. suspicion on Day 6, but voted Made. Once again, Matahari has mentioned FZ. but is backing out of it because I'm going hard after her and (somehow) that's a "traditional baddie tactic."Matahari wrote:Reading ppl's defenses have struck me oddly.

Yes, I see what you mean. And it was a long list, so should have been easy to pick one person, maybe the person at the top of his list and start asking some questions or making some assertions.Turnip Head wrote:Click this post and then keep reading down the page.

Why do you think he didn't?

He really should have included me on that list. When I pointed that out, he really had no choice but to say he thought Light was playing an under the radar game. And then it looks like he pulled a list of under-the-radar names out of thin air that would fit this profile he was forced to create. The fact that he hasn't stood by any of this is what's got me thinking it was all bullpoop.
I get you. But he's supposed to play like he doesn't. Are you saying it was a slip?Turnip Head wrote:I'm not sure why, but it's clear he doesn't think I'm Kira, which makes me think he knows who is.

I'm going to wait 5 more minutes. If no one seriously considers my suspicions on llama, I'll probably go with MM, because if Bea is unlynchable, then what's the point, and I more than that, I think that of the voters who had already voted, I trust those who voted for him more than I do others
I don't have a strong lead on Llama. I can empathize with you fighting off hard his case on you or having received the "give me offense not defense" treatment from him, but I also feel he (or anyone else) could easily call your counter-case of him a NO-U. Snowman also NO-U'd him heavily, although he was way more unsubstantiated in doing so.

I also said FZ was one of my first suspicions in the game, but that doesn't make me right. I have been susp of many players at different points in play, but I like to feel a little more certain. So I will reiterate my position. You suspected FZ for not the clearest things to prove. I call that feels, but oh well. You made an impressive case on her, pulling her posts that explained why you were perceiving her as a baddie. That felt very honest to me. I have found her posting to people as leaving too much wiggle room for herself, and it seemed like it could be coming from a bad perspective, but again, that doesn't make me right.

The post I quoted did not sound honest to me at all. Maybe you aren't bad, but that post sounds like spin.
Time is getting away from me, so here goes my ss stuff: I used to have TH slightly on the bad side of the fence, but not now. He is moved more into the good side. DH went from gray area, by-passed the bad side completely straight to good side of fence. Daisy, BR on the good side, Bea and Boo were on the good side, but closer to the fence at the moment. Maybe they are both good and maybe not, but I can't decide yet.
Slightly on the bad side, or on the fence are Llama and Epig.
I have a huge gray area. Most everyone else is in that area, for different reasons. I think DP is good but I can't move him yet. Bass can be a good and sneaky baddie, but I don't want to even think about him yet, being that loss can easily mess up 2 weeks of game play, obviously more in rl, but I'll look at him later. Boomslang, Zeke, MM, and Ricochet are ppl I'm not familiar with. With the exception of MM, who seems kind of whacky, the others trouble me because they are not saying enough to get a grip on. Although, when they do post, I don't see it as dishonest. So I probably missed someone, I'll post again if I did.
