It was my fault, and it was JJJ's fault. We both did the same thing at the same time, basically. I was able to get back online and into Mafia with not much time left in the lynch also Asunder hosting and it was tied between you and Quin.

I looked over both ISOs with the time I had, and Quin was active, pleading for his life, and invoking "GenuQuin", and you were nowhere to be seen. Your posts didn't do anything to save you from being the choice.

You forgot to mention that I was begging people to lynch Quin and you and Jay just basically ignored me in favour of voting Bob on the bullshit flimy pretext you just said was a valid reason.

Aw that was a fun role to lose. Bye Simon!

I don't have much experience with games like this, fullyclosed with no roles shown. I played a few not many. When someone role claims, we just believe them? I went BOTD cause it was Day 1, but in general, is it common for baddies to take claim to avoid a lynch?

Posted: **Sat Jan 05, 2019 7:21 am**

Also, I recall Sloonei being different in the past, but the last game I played with him, and this one, he seems to be an EOD agent of Chaos. Is this his norm, and I just misrecall him being more precise?

Maybe I conflated him with Jay?

Where I come from, it definitely happens, but the danger is that you draw a counterclaim (e.g. "I'm the doctor" "no actually I'm the doctor"). Claiming a misdirector definitely wouldn't have been enough to avoid a lynch, as that's a very common baddie role. Not sure how much of that applies here.

You can respond as you'd like. Listen to tone, read through their other posts, and decide if you trust them. I have fake claimed right before getting lynched as a baddie. It almost saved me. In fact, it was in a game where you could choose your own role, kind-of and I had only wished I had thought of the fake claim sooner and make it my real role.

Posted: **Sat Jan 05, 2019 9:58 am**

That's interesting c-bob. I didn't realize misdirector was a common baddie role. I assumed since people started moving their votes off Luna when she claimed that it was commonly a civ role.

I need to completely re-read EOD. I don't know how we got to where we got or how Quin became the object of so many votes. I tried to read it while it was happening but I wasn't following very well (distracted by what was going on in discord).

I don't know if it's always been this way here, but EOD chaos is kind of a mainstay here. I've generally found it to be NAI, because well-intentioned civs will do it just as much as scum trying to have a laugh.

No. I’m just always trying to work out the best place to put my vote.

I was on colonialbob for a long time yesterday and never moved. I didn’t care for the case against Quin. The case against Luna had and still has some good points, but also some that I disagreed with and I didn’t like the way she was being steamrolled.

In what way did I aewm chaotic?

I'm not one to promote EOD chaos, like some I've seen. It just happens that I worked last night and got home with not much time left, and a vote to make.

Posted: **Sat Jan 05, 2019 1:01 pm**

I re-read EOD and still don't understand why the votes started piling on Quin. Was it because he voted for Mac?

Ok thanks Colin. I've seen him get absorbed in video games before so it didn't seem unrealistic once he explained that.

I'm also going to re-read the wolbre lynch to see the parallels.

Also [mention]nijuukyugou[/mention] thank you for addressing my post. I'm not annoyed at all now, water under the bridge.

There was never an established suspect at any point prior to the end of day. Votes were going to “pile on” anybody that received votes.

I voted for cbob (relatively early) because his posts looked overly casual.

I think I have a pretty good feel for why people voted for bob. Jay laid out his reasons earlier in the day (jokey and casual), Long Con explained his vote post lynch and Sloonei preferred a bob lynch to a Quin lynch and agreed with Jay's observations. Luna needed to vote somewhere that left her safe.

I can say all that about bob's lynch but nothing about why votes piled onto Quin.

Correction: I do know why Colin voted for Quin because he explained it.

Anybody voting for cbob 1.0 for being jokey and casual deserves scrutiny

Night 1: People Who Died

“Like Mean Gene Okerlund. RIP.”

“Or MacDougall.”

“What are you talking about? I just saw Mac one hour ago.”

A finger ascended as though accusing the rising sun. It pointed to a body that had been tied to a tree. MacDougall’s hairy body was matted with his own blood. A snarl remained frozen on his human face.

“We better get out of here.”

“And go where?”

MacDougall has been killed.

Spoiler: show

It is now Day 2. You have 48 hours to lynch someone.
