Create a whirlwind of a thread by facilitating maximal activity. Ask questions, make comments, and hurl accusations at every opportunity. The thread needs to be a pressured and even stressful environment.

I ain’t got no time fo’ dat today so y’all get busy.

So in other words, "y'all get started and get the dirty work done and I will come back in here before the vote and make my assessment on which bandwagon I should jump on." Sounds bad to me. My first accusation is on YOU. Not only just this post. But, this post was given at12:54am. You then go on posting frequently until 3:08am. That is over 2 hours. And you have no time to ask questions, make comments, hurl accusations? There was no opportunity for that? Then you must have slept or something because you came back in the early pm posting exactly 9 hours later. At 1:48pm you talk about what you will do once you feel like actually playing the game. Again, you post frequently for 1 hour (1:48pm-2:42pm) not really saying anything. I do NOT like Jay in Mega-Man, I do not like him, Sam-I-Am.

@Jack - I always post early on and often. I just don't often say much game related crap because I am too busy trying to keep up with the reading in the little bit of time I have to devote to mafia.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

out of 7 posts this must be the one! I will say it looks forced, yes. nothing about this seems to flow smoothly.

Too many words. That is how i would see it. It looks suspicious yes, but eloh has now dropped off the radar. Do you interpret that as intentional or not?

I don't know how to do the fancy new way people are announcing their votes. Sorry if it's mandatory now, wasn't done at all last time I played.

Not mandatory in this game. They're just [ vote ] [ /vote ] tags if you want to use them, they were made for a past game but are not required in most games (it makes them easy to see in thread and easy to search since they have the keyword "aubergine"

I'm also not opposed to lynching Colin, since I'd expect to see a lot more content from him by now/better explanation of his vote (and the same goes for Nova but a bit less so on the content expectations). But for now my vote stays on Sloonei. Despite his emotional appeal I haven't seen anything that is enough to convince me he is genuine. Maybe I am reading with a biased angle but I have been able to see every post of his as posturing/forced/disingenuous and I think it's notable that I haven't been able to shake that feeling in any of his defenses.

Sounds like a very townie mindset. Eloh I mean.

can’t tell if sarcasm

Not sarcasm.
I haven't looked at all of her posts, but to be indecisive on someone like that is usually a town-tell

it doesn't look like legitimate indecision though. she literally said "I'm sus of Jay" and "I don't think anything happened to jay on d0" in the same post

What? Then what is the point of saying anything about something happening to me or not happening to me? In the universe you've painted, it's redundant -- nothing happened to anyone.

I'm pretty sure you wouldn't have noticed this unless you were specifically eyeing jay, and I don't understand why you'd do that so I'm suspicious of this - feels like a targeted attack, agendary

I like new Jay.

I take this as a joke. Eloh's just finished talking about the prospect of being swamped with reading. Jay is the player most likely to produce 10 pages of content every minute. She likes this new laid back guy in his place.

This post is not a joke. She means it. I disagree with her take here. For one, Jay was involved in the discussion on the night in question. And, as I've said elsewhere, I don't think "Jay is being lazy, therefore he's scum" is a valid line of suspicion. He's not gonna phone it in just because he's bad. That's, like, the opposite of his M.O.

Elohcin wrote: ↑Sun Sep 23, 2018 4:17 pm I have to go get ready for dinner (we are meeting an old friend in the next town over). I have read, I have explained my thoughts. I cannot expand any more. Even though Sloon is the one with the most votes after me, I cannot vote him in good conscience. I don't think he is bad. All the talk about my accusations of Jay has brought back the civ-looking Jay I am used to and that makes me question my initial thoughts of him. I am wondering if his lack of gumption in the beginning of Day 1 was just something related to RL or something...dunno. Anyway...I am voting for nutella. I encourage you to read her posts isolated from the others and see how bandwagony she is being. If I am not the one driving to the restaurant, I may be able to check in while on the road (we are meeting the friend at 6pm which is EOD). If not, I guess I will just see what happened when I get home.
