Very weird. Guess LB hit some tech issues?
Speaking of which hey Lio, 'sup. Good to have you in on the game.
Well reading up I'm interested in several people.
Aranatha has had plenty of pressure day 1 but in general I'm not sure on what grounds. Sorting through a few posts there seems to be alot of different agendas there?
In one situation we had Kesso curious about Aranathas reaction to Omtose, something like "hey why is Aranatha defending Omtose?" Then Telas arguing Aranatha is scummy because he made a snappy reply when holding back a vote. Both Kesso and Telas riled Aranatha up, baiting.
I'm not seeing the substance to this. if anything I just see the two working together trying to see what sticks.
Then there's that vote on Gait. I got the case built up on Kadagar. I'd say we had lazier votes, mine wasn't exactly stellar but I see what Gait was driving at.
Liosan made some strange stretches on Gait. I was pretty sure Mockra made more sense but then Mockra explained it so...yeah.
Kesso, I'm surprised to see, was on the Omtose lynch train, Seemed negative when I was on, focused on the whole Aranatha bit. not really clear what changed his mind?
Well those are my thoughts, off to work. Might pop back in around lunch time.
Cheers.
This is scummy, given that Aranatha was scum.
Now at this stage, what did I think, well in my PM I said...
I am paraphrasing instead of quoting but I said this...
"Today I want to lynch kesso
Telas and Aranatha are lovers and is why I am not looking at them
One of Mockra, Lio or Gait is scum (fucking 2 out of 3 were roled so something must have ticked)
kesso, Mockra, Lio and gait on my scum read so far
I need a cf for further clues"

Had a busy day yesterday, after my last post I did not log in until now. Not surprised we lynched but I am surprised there was nothing from Omtose in return. Going to do a little read up of day one and see if anything jumps out. Most probably not at this stage.
This is my first post of day 2. Yet my second post is a case, throwing a few people into the mix, I also asked Aranatha why the need for self preservation?
Now what about Mockra's, did he look further into the Aranatha vote like he said he would? No. Who is he not liking?
Lio, Lio who not only dislikes Aranatha but also pointed out Mockra's "now you know" post.

@ work, having gotten decent amount of sleep, and I can feel the blessed caffeine seeping through my system, getting shit in gear. Have to be productive fo work but should have some time to play.
having re-read the whole of 3 pages we have, really not liking Lio atm. He's posted 3 quotes by Aranatha,presenting them as "consecutive", omitting at least as many in his back and forth with Kesso. If that's not strawmanning, I don't know what is.
Couple that with his "signal-fishing" yesterday against me (pet peeve: I hate the "well, X feels scummy, but I don't know why" posts. In my experience, people tend to make those accusations for a few days, and then start screaming bloody murder that X is scum because they're too "smooth under all that pressure".), and he's looking quite shady in my books.
Aranatha votes Mockra. Out of the blue. For a possible signal, because Mockra said it was a signal. Which in turn asks us to ask the question why the signallee over the master, it also gets us looking at Mockra as a potential symp over a killer, and certainly distances Aranatha from Mockra.

Me not really either. And I understand why have canals when you can have roads just a few miles farther in the first place.
According to Age of Empires II, Venice was founded by refugees from a Roman city (that started with "A") that was sacked by Attila, who were desperate to find a secure and defensible place to live.
...And now you know...
Am I the only one whose spidey sense is tingling when they read something like AND NOW YOU KNOW at the end of the post?
If you want to accuse me of signalling or something how about you just do that, rather doing the smoke and mirrors and "this is SOMEHOW SUSPICIOUS!!!1" bit?

Since you bothered to show up.

Yes, I too am feeling let down. Everyone else should post more and better!
@ Bendal: Regarding your case...it's about possible signalling, which I never have the hots for, simply because I'd never do it myself.
I don't do it either, but the fact remains that some people are doing it all the time. I don't know how often they're caught doing it, but I'd pretty much expect to be caught if I did do it. So I don't.
}Now you know" seems particularly cryptic to be taken for a signal, but Liosan never said he read it as a signal, just something that made his "spidey Senses tingle." Mockra said Liosan was seeing a signal that wasn't there. So just maybe - it was.
Vote Mockra
It isn't because Mockra is jittery either, because Gaot makes him explain his vote...

Well, you've run rings around me logically, there...
I'll wait on Mokra's predictably vehement reply.
What I'm getting at is the only role to feel to need to make signals is symp signalling to his masters. Hence if you believe it might be a signal you will logically vote the one the presumed signal was aimed at because he is likely one of the presumed symp's masters. So I'm asking why are you voting presumed symp over a presumed master?
Because I'm not assuming that the signal (if it's a signal) is necessarily directed at the player (you) to whom Mockra replied to.
He is painting Mockra as a symp and we never lynch a symp suspect over a killer.

I'm voting Mockra because he was so forceful in denying a specific accusation that was never even made.
I assumed that was the accusation. I am giving Lio the benefit of the doubt that he actually had a reason to point me out, rather than shoot the shit, or, as he ended up putting it, "genuinely sanity-checking" himself. I was wrong, I forgot Rule 1: Assume everyone else playing is an idiot.
And now you're voting me, because...
I purposefully drew attention to the fact I'm signalling? Is that it?
I don't think that even merits on OMGUs at this point
Mockra is very calm here, probably knowing his partner won't push. Also no vote back.
What is very interesting here is this

Now you're just WIFOMing for the sake of WIFOMing. ONLy merit to making a symp case is if you ca point at the master (and vote the master). There's no way proving anyone's a symp, b/c they'll CF RI anyways.
It's not like a weak case is unheard of around here, is it? I have an excuse for my stupidity which I'll gladly share at the end of the game.
