I'm not usually a proponent of lynching low posters but in a circumstance where we have TWO teams with NK ability (one of which has BTSC and still can't get their shit together) and there is no NK, I think I'll be looking at the low/non posters a lot more seriously this game

This seems presuming !

What secrets do you know ? Or what do you want all of us-- the regular people-- to think?

I want to fight somebody.

So I'm voting for myself.

JaggedJimmyJay is my first target because he makes me think he is a noob.

This is not a matter of knowing any secrets, my friend - it's simple logic. If you can come up with another plausible explanation for the lack of ANY NK well, I'm listening...

Maybe a kill protection... Or you could be right . I feel like odds are about the same.

Jj is a noob. Hoping Simon doesn't realise I am as well.

Asked why I wasn't consensus town to see if anyone was taking my posting seriously. Only ddl, and I think that's probably par for the course and not suspicious.

Also The Doctor flipping bad is awesome. He is really hard to read through all the jokes.

I kinda think you're town. How about that.

Hi

As one of your prefects and reigning champion, I would like a word with everyone that voted for me.

I really wanted to quote posts and have shit saved in drafts right after the lynch, but we can't do that when the thread is locked, so I wrote it in my head. The ink didn't dry, and now I'm an inkwell.

It's hard to see that lynch as a save opportunity for Wilgy, if he was saved at all. Those votes came pretty fast. He was, after all, a warrior, who had a pretty good chance of defeating the average bear.

But I'm yo prefect, so simma down.

I understand some of the votes for me:
-I got TH's reasoning, even though I don't agree with it.
-Nutella had a long winded explanation of her vote for me, disliking my oversight of voting DF even though he had posted. Meh. Not the most solid reason, but it's day 1, and it's a ping she followed through with, talking about it before Wilgy was in danger. She agreed with me that INH needed to show up, and brought up that Wilgy hadn't been around in a while. So she agrees with my concern that INH hasn't been around, but votes me anyway, followed by voting Wilgy for...not showing up. I mean, the fact that she voted for Wilgy at all makes me want to believe she's not on his team. If she's bad, I'd expect it on the Yelow Turbans.
-Bubbles. Um. Votes me and JJJ because she wanted to see a duel between us. In other words, she voted us because she wanted to vote us. In other words, she put the milk in the pantry because she wanted to put the milk in the pantry. I strongly dislike this vote/explanation. If there was a Wilgy save going on, this would add up. She put JJJ ahead with 4 votes, and me right behind with 3. Wilgy had 2 at this point in time, tied with a bunch of people.
-Domald voted for me and JJJ. Let's see what he had to say about suspicions:

Also Sorsha wanting to vote prefects sounds like a bad idea to me. I get the impression that prefects have important abilities or something, so why would we want to put them up to lynch right away?

And there's this DFaraday guy. This DFaraday guy-- he's just... well.. do I have to say it? He's not good. No good at all. Lies and twisting the fact like the crooked media. Rooting against me.

Listen folks, Bass better stay active. Otherwise he's saying empty promises and looking to be ignored. That's just despicable. We, as a game, cannot let him get away with this, folks.

(c) Paid for by Dom/NJU 2016.

Wait, that's funny. It looks like he meant to vote DF and Bass, but accidentally voted for me and JJJ. Whoops, must be some mistake. Because I just reread all his posts multiple times, and the only time he expressed any sort of sentiment toward me is when I criticized his posting gimmick and he called me "sad". He doesn't really mention JJJ as far as I can tell.

So...why did he vote for me? Or JJJ for that matter. I REALLY don't like Dom's vote.

-my first vote was Bass, who said most of my posts were filler posts and campaigning posts, which is fair. I did have a lot of those. Such is my day 1. He voted for MM for similar reasons, so I'm not gonna jump on him for this vote. Makes sense, and was reasoned. I don't think he looks as suspicious for that.


Dom and Bubbles are my top priorities today. I will most likely be voting there.

Doubtful. Given that there's 8 baddies able to perform night kills right now I can't see a situation where they are ALL inactive.

It's possible that a secret role stopped the kill of at least one faction, and the other might have tried to kill Dong Zhuo.

It's busy IRL indicative. He's in a PhD program and studying like hell for a huge test coming up in September he has to do well on to stay in the program. Plus everything else school-wise he is working on and teaching. So you're probably looking at someone working 80+ hours every week and still trying to play a mafia game of this scope.

I thought about making that OT green, but I think the frustration comes from things outside of the game and people need perspective on this to understand where he is coming from in his thoughts.

Yeah I eventually read his posts and realized that.

Sorry MP.

Dom's votes are both bizarre. He should talk about them.

Bubbles votes were based on the notion that "Scotty and I would put up a good fight" based on what she has seen in past games. This makes me wonder if she didn't understand the dueling concept or what she was actually voting for. Bubbles, please talk about that.

Hey Simon, what do you like about Russtifinko?

Good job on wilgy btw everyone. For whatever reason (probably that I'm not really reading the thread much) I didn't realise that the duel is actually us influencing the lynch. So, good that I know that now.

FYI I still need to read this thang. I've been just recently caught up helping Daisy with the Psych endgame, we still have to pack and move some more stuff thereafter, and I have lots of studying to still do. Very likely will be pulling another all-nighter tonight, so at some point if I want a break I might try popping in here. Otherwise you'll hear from me tomorrow evening probably.

<---Do it.

Also, good job on getting Wilgy, guys!

Alright. I'm still about 5-6 pages behind but am trying to get caught up tonight. So we shall see how this goes.

Lyin' Scotty is teaming up with Tricky Jay in an alliance to take me down!

Why would I vote bass? Right now-- I think Bass is a good guy. That could change. I have explained why in the past. You can look it up-- plenty have written about it.

Folks, don't trust Lyin' Scotty and Tricky Jay. Lyin' Scotty looked for an opportunity to seize power without any sort of content. Tricky Jay has used bad thinking all game. Not good, folks, not good.

Great result! And no night death, wow. Probably some protections/other mechanics involved, but could also be partially due to inactive players. (Has anyone tried to tell lorab or rabbit or soneji the game has started? It's been a while...)

I'm rather intrigued by the connections JJJ has observed between Wilgy and MM. I also agree with Scotty that Bubbles' and Dom's votes were suspicious.

I asked whether you were planning on retiring from the game if you are Mafia and came under suspicion for it?

Bubbles and MM's votes smell the fishiest to me. I want to go back and investigate those.

Scotty my man, I'm sorry I ever doubted you. You are the hero we need. Please be my sensei.

Also JJJ, though I'm reading you as town right now, I was surprised to not see your votes used for self defense when you showed up at deadline.

It's real easy to paint votes as suspicious when there's 2 forces of evil out there against me. We make two votes. Scotty is far from confirmed civ. Why would Wilgy's team even think he would die?

I mean talk about lousy arguments, folks.

So I was gonna say this wasn't true and Scotty could still be a Yellow Turban, but then I realized he would've likely lost his duel had he been. So I'm prepared to give Scotty some civ cred barring evidence to the contrary.

Yeah I got here at literally XX:58 and had to phone vote, I didn't even look at the tally. I'm surprised I even got my votes in on time.

Who's to say I'm not on Wilgy's team? I mean, I'm not, but why exclude that as a possibility?

I appreciate the civ label because I am, but your defense of me is slightly hollow.

I could also be anything, and just rolled better than Wilgy, so this argument is not the best way to guard my alignment.
