I was bothered more that trash said she will only have internet at uni,(something I completely believe, and... well that sucks simply put) and made several posts alluding to coming up with some rather deep analysis of everyone that was involved in Wonk's lynch. I was worried it'd be a cover for pre-lurking with a project too large to handle given real life circumstances. I see now that she's very much in the thick of things, so I don't believe there will be lurking, but it also stands out to me as quite different from day one. Additionally, I'm still waiting on said "project". I'm still reading through posts, just skimmed trash's posts quickly and saw nothing yet, though it seems like there's been quite some controversy with ABC.

i cancelled my internet yesterday, i thought it would get disconnected then but it turns out it will be tomorrow instead. that wasnt bull. im still working on the wonk thing, but i've been caught up in today's events. i have a barely-filled-in table that i made up last night, i was gonna post it and ask you guys to fill in the blanks (really just justifications for your votes, to save me going through the 1000 posts again but i didnt want it to seem like im slacking off).

im trying really hard with this game because i dont want to lurk, and i think its a really exciting game :D im sorry though, that i havent done it yet.

Like I said, I 100% believe you on the internet thing, and I'm sorry for your situation.

You are certainly not "pre-lurking," as I put it. Though I do have to wonder if you were told to be more active than day one, or if it's of your own accord. Either way, I'm looking forward to this table whether it's finished or not.

Yay @ people reading my flavor text!

I've already mentioned it, but I like the way that it's clear that you've been following the game :)

Wait. When did you already mention the bolded?

A few posts beforehand - something like "I like the way that it followed the events of day 1"

its of my own accord, of course. i made many apologies the first day for not being here as much as i'd have liked to. i'm only on for 5 minutes just now, but i've caught up with the latest 20 or so posts and i'll be back on tonight after work. i dont want to share too much about my thoughts, but i'm getting more confident in my suspicions with every piece of conversation i read.

that said, there are a few players i simply can't place at all.

"I have a protown role."

How explicit does a roleclaim need to get? o_O

well to me vanilla townie is a protown role... but hey... he was the doc so that probably means you were right in the interpretation.

I believe vanilla implies the absence of a role. Vanilla townies are protown, but "protown role" implies townie with a power.

Actually I just thought of another idea for the "kill Republc because he may be the doctor" logic. If the aliens are only two members, they may have thought Wonk was an SK, since I believe SK's usually kill with knives. Probably not as likely as prof's theory, but it's something I have to consider too.

I just feel it wasn't the most pro-town way about trying to get people to vote, because essentially ABC and FF were just bandwagon votes. It shows they're fairly easy to sway, but doesn't really give a clue as to their alignment as I see it.

The alternative was to vote for a time limit and then dawdle about doing nothing for days, until the limit was reached.  I refuse to do that: it makes the game boring, and it's frustrating to watch.  I'm willing to bet that if someone had been willing to do something similar last game, it would not have dragged on as long. 

More to the point, why would you give people who jumped on a free pass?  My entire approach was almost literally to say "hey, if you think wonk's scum, vote for him please."  I'd like to think I'm so persuasive that a one-liner like that would get them to do as I ask, but I've got a lifetime of evidence that proves otherwise.  This is especially true since at least one person I asked, namely trashleg, has indicated she wouldn't have jumped in the first place.

That's a fair point, although I know firsthand that it doesn't always turn out for the best. 

I'm not giving anyone a free pass, ABC and FF were bandwagoners. It's something I'll keep in mind about them, but the evidence isn't as strong in my mind as if they had voted without someone asking them to hurry up and vote. The votes are nowhere near as suspicious as prof's was.

Ahhh, that you did. I really need to get some sleep. I scoured the entire thread twice, reading your posts and I missed that both times. I guess I wanted there to be nothing. Oh, well.

Current thoughts:
prof is right and the aliens have been found fairly easily
OR prof has orchestrated all of this in order to push another mislynch, either with ABC today or if he's scum then with a follow-up lynch of radish or Heph.

There's a lot of things that aren't adding up to me, but I do believe ABC is scum and that flip would be a minor victory in itself. Going to do a reread again before I place the vote.

Just to clear this up - I did notice the flavour, and I read it a few times, because I liked the way that it was relevant to the events of day 1. I didn't realise that it was going to have a clue like that hidden within, you see.

I know that it looks very scummy, but I just didn't want to be lumped in with people who may not have read the flavour at all.

It is scummy radish, all of you who didn't notice that clue possibly went after republic because of it.

I want to know every person who didn't notice that clue, and I want it answered honestly. If you lie to me, it will be harder to figure this out.

This seems like a very naive demand, and one that wouldn't make it easier to figure out anyway considering aliens would most likely lie about it.


HAHAHAH YOU THINK SO LINKZMAX!

Why don't you answer the question then?

I hope you're simply rereading the thread and not displaying outright hesitation
