Although syphonius seems to be relaxing a bit more now that the suspicion has been drawn off of him.

People were suspicous of me?

Someone voted for me because not_u listed my name twice!

(ie: RVS vote)

I'm rather comfy in the light.

Exactly syphonius, when was the last time you were under interrogation?

There are at least 15 active players and so far, only I have been seriously grilled. So that means that 14 others have had a chance to sit on their rumps while no one so much as glanced their way.

IG, you have some explaining to do. Syphonius, you're next.

When was I tensed? I figure i'll wait 'til the next day phase for the serious stuff to get started.

Explain what now?

Halo, getting grilled is part and parcel of this game. I'm mildly surprised at the lack of grill this time around.

First of all IG, your lack of voting confidence in the RVS, which I have determined to mean "random voting stage", was expected according to other players.

VOTE: IGLanister

Tell me why on the emperor's holy terra I shouldn't vote for you.

The evidence against you includes your actions in the RVS, such as the "Scott Scandal" and later voting as indicated by Drk_O.

Don't worry syphonius, I'll get to you.

@ferrett, I'm trying to step up the grilling in this game.

I've explained myself twice already. You want answers, flip back a few pages. Vote any way you like nachos. I've already had my ass grilled.

Grilled? More like lightly glanced at.

You have not been called out on your vote for Scott during the RVS. You voted after I did you know. Were you trying to be associated with us or were you just joining GND and his other cohort?

((/nightkill))



I kid, I kid, though once again, why are you getting to me?

I suspect its nonsense, and you're just shaking things up, but meh, if you have an honest reason to suspect me, best get that cleared up!

I will. As soon as I reread the posts and find something you have said.

I did answer for my actions concerning Scott. Like I said I did noob it up with my vote. It was a simple bandwagoning on my part. I even went so far as to apologize to Scott for my suck behavior. Check it out, it's all there:

I know, your lack of strong convictions. During the RVS you voted for Drk_O and bandwagoned. I had already cast my vote for him during the RVS, yet you did so as well.

Also, you told us that we should continue voting for scott while avoiding voting for him yourself. That seems like you wanted scott to be voted out, but were too afraid of being convicted of bandwagoning as well.

This means you have something to hide, more so than those who actually voted for him.

I wasn't afraid of being called a heretic and was willing to take a risk in voting for scott. You have yet to indict anyone seriously and I believe that in doing so you are trying to hide your guilt. The more you talk, the more you have a chance of releasing some information that you didn't want to and I genuinely believe that you are afraid to do so.

Bishop, LL, and Drk have joined me in being talkative and inquisitive. Which I would guess means that we don't have anything to hide. In fact, I doubt that Bishop, LL, or Drk are inquisitors because of this fact.

So syphonius, explain your RVS vote for Drk, why you compelled us to vote for scott while refraining from doing so yourself, and why you haven't shared any ideas with us.

The above was all to syphonius.

@ IG, okay so you have some explanation for your RVS actions. I can kind of get behind that reasoning due to my personal experience as well.

So Drk, why do you have suspicion of IG again. Please enlighten town again.

I didn't bandwagon... at all, you're vote didn't influence me at all.

That. That was a joke, (I was happy I referenced a book, since I am quite behind...)

Nope.

I wasn't afraid of voting for VikingScott, I simply didn't suspect him of anything.

Bishop, LL, and Drk have joined me in being talkative and inquisitive. Which I would guess means that we don't have anything to hide. In fact, I doubt that Bishop, LL, or Drk are inquisitors because of this fact.

I'm just new.

So syphonius, explain your RVS vote for Drk, why you compelled us to vote for scott while refraining from doing so yourself, and why you haven't shared any ideas with us.

I can't, I am new, and voted for Drk_O for no reason in particular...

As for the not sharing ideas, it's because I view all the votes so far as random.

Syphonius, you have done nothing to help town though. Your only vote was during the RVS, and was against Drk for silly reasons. Why are you so intent on shutting up and not helping town?

You also seem incredibly afraid to vote.

Even Drk's targets have voted and risked themselves. Playing cautiously is good I guess, but too cautious and you seem like a criminal.

I think I know Drk's plans, and I also think they aren't working, but I'll give it a day to fruition.

I will not attack bishop any further because he is out of town IRL, but he will get his in due time, as will everyone. In fact we'll have a real "equal grilling" mafia game set up. Think about it, we'll be revolutionaries.

On a side note I just want to add the fact that TSOALR might be getting another life. He had a recent post of June 3rd 2010 so he may get it running again.

And Rich Franklin destroys chuck liddell. Just thought id throw that out there...

If Halonachos gets nightkilled now you would look rather scummy here.
Even though you are joking it would still look scummy.

Well, I am still finding this game incredibly difficult to get into. Let me make a few observations though;

1) One or two people seem to be very confrontational/defensive, which does not create a good environment in which to use logical deduction.

2) So many people talking makes it incredibly easy for people to "hide" without being called on it. (I myself have found myself posting far less in this game than my previous two games)

3) There are quite a few newer players, and some of those newer players want to come up with wonderful new strategies like "no lynch". They would be better off going with the advice of the more experienced players.

4) If I can't decide who I want to vote for, I will look closely at who will be the least useful player the town rather than who is most likely to be a 'stealer.

Can I request prods?

Who against?

I'd hapstance to say that the reason behind the different roles assumed is that the vocal players we usually see are absent and new vocal players exist. As such everyone is adapting, trying to see which factions (see not roles) they align themselves to. The irony this has produced is that islands of one are much easier to exist in this current environment, with many of the players hanging around and sniping instead of coalescencing.

Another thing I think is a problem here is that there is no pressure. As much as I'd like a lynch, there's no way to motivate just lynching one inactive person, and of the people active, even if I don't trust everyone explicitly, I think that lynching these people at the moment is bad for the conversation which is already driven by a few people. We need to start some kind of big push to lynching, and I don't mean that by just voting. Any pressure votes I have given at the moment don't even have the strength to pressure anyone, because at this point, there is no one person that really stands out in everyone's eyes as someone very suspicious. Not openly, anyway.

Ok, how can I help the town yet? I cannot.

I am not intent on shutting up and not helping the town, I simply cannot do anything to help it yet.

Why do I seem incredibly afraid to vote exactly?

*Gets noose ready*

No, he will not. Anyone who tries to make it out like it wasn't a joke and was infact a super scummy feth up will be called out on it immediantly. By saying that you've increased my ssuspicon of you slightly.

People should also look out for the Baddies trying to kill off people who have conflict with someone they want Lynched, for examp IG and Drk_Oblit, they might kill off Drk_Oblit and claqim it means IG is a baddie to get him lynched. Not claiming either of them are innocent or anything.

Can Drk_Oblit and IG summorise why they feel each other are suspicous.

I want more out of GND, who does he find suspicous?

To put some pressure on him.

VoteGND

Could we get a tally not_u?

Alot of stuff to keep track of.

Back from camp in the nick of time.

Apologies, I forgot to let you know.

In response to lord loss, I've not had chance to evaluate the last 5 pages yet but unless there has been any monumental slip ups, my suspicions remain on IGLannister from a bit of slap dash voting event for an RVS.
