MLP Game Thread

[Feck]

Feck, what are your thoughts about UT's play yesterday?

I don't know I will take some time and read all the thread (rather than someone's everso helpful cherry picking ) slowly when I stop having to defend myself against a tide of bullshit .

[Animavore]

It would've been more odd if I'd used 'stag' as a pun for 'mayor'

True!

Hey Ani, I'm thinking about renting Dark Souls from the local Redbox for a couple nights. Is it worth it?

It's an awesome game. My GOTY. But a couple of nights may not be enough to immerse yourself in it. It took over my life for nearly a month. I'm playing it again at the mo' but to a lesser degree.

If I wanted to save myself I would not have outed as vanilla

So . . . after all that at that top of my suspicious list is (in alphabetical order):

b. tern.
Feck
MZ
Oblivion

The rest in order of towniness:

UT
irre
Ani, DP
mono

You may be townish this game - at least you're not claiming some obscure role! - but your reads don't impress me much. feck is posting like town, imo. MZ I'm trying to figure out. Oblivion is a hard read for me. I always trust her at first then get more anxious about her maybe being scum towards end of game. Mono looking in and not posting seems un-townish.

Ok, so who are your picks for scum and town?

Why do you have UT at the top of the townie list?

p. much how I could watch his change of heart with regards to oblivion. That didn't read as faked to me.

I haven't got solid enough reads to make any accusations with real conviction.

'Change of heart' re Ob? that's it? Doesn't strike me as anything particularly more townish than not.

I'm also not buying Feck as scum. He's calling a lot of attention to himself, not normal scum behaviour, especially when under suspicion.

ksen, my town vibe re MZ was in part due to his reaction to his bandwagon. that carried him over the vanilla out. I'm seriously rethinking him at the moment. I thought he might possibly be the doc at the point where I backed off yesterday. that was mostly because he looked like he was special hunting.

Please describe his reaction to his potential lynch.

It looked like pissed off town. He didn't try to save himself by changing his vote to someone in range of being lynched, which IMO a reasonable vanilla strategy on day 1 unless you feel really sure one of the other viable bandwagons is scum. Otherwise you could put a special behind the 8-ball with not enough time to unload the bandwagon.

The other side of that coin is as scum, if one of the other viable bandwagons is scum and possibly a scum special, though. That is a good reason for scum not to fight a bandwagon, that and not implicating other scum in your flail.

[oblivion]

Anyone else getting the feeling that the MZ/ob spat is staged?

It's quite possible that his side is staged. I'm nearly at the irritation point I get with teeth sometimes. But, unlike teeth (usually), I haven't gotten an unambiguous town read out of all that crap.

[ksen]

Hi mononoke . . . any thoughts on my Day 1 recaps?

[Feck]

Hey Mono what sort of Cake do you like best ?

[ksen]

aaaaannnnnd he's gone

[oblivion]

hmm.

[Magicziggy]

I'm going to start again. The other explanation for oblivion and fecks behavior is they are both town. Yes I saw your vote on me ksen. It's wrong.

The main sticking point for me is irre. I see town. Oblivion sees scum. I want to hear from her .

this is town oblivion and what I've been missing. I think I did say this much at the time or later.

[oblivion]

It's not been missing. you haven't been paying attention.

I want to see Irre's and UT's thoughts re the night kills and the day's events. MZ, your about face on Feck is bothering me a lot. Maybe more than the multiple about faces on me. You and I at least have a mutual history of suspecting each other in the early game.

I will attempt to explain this once again.
Firstly I felt I would be lynched. I know there was a lot of time left but it looked inevitable.
Secondly, I decided on the best thing for town was to know in advance who they were lynching so when my card flipped they could assess reaction. The stuff about the name seemed important at the time. I thought it was useful for town to know that names were irrelevant and to ignore calls for outing them.

I really had no sure fire other candidate so changing my vote was not an option.

Back to square one but with oblivion now looking more townish and Ani looking a little like he did last game.

[Magicziggy]

My read on feck was directly linked to you. If you are town I have no reason to suspect him
