Voted no on the death penalty. It costs the state roughly 3x as much as seeking a life sentence, is enforced arbitrarily and in a racist manner based on the color of the victim, and cannot be reversed if evidence of innocence is found after a conviction.

do you care if you're lynched?

Russtifinko wrote:So BWT and JJ, while you guys have both posted recently...What are your thoughts on...anything?

You could coment on things that have happened to you this game, pick a random (or nonrandom) player and give your opinion on them, comment on FZ's post about S~V~S and Lizzie...

I'd just love to hear from either of you in more than on line at a time about what's going on. We can use all the help we can get.

Teef, i don't know what to tell you. I am sorry and a bit confuzzled if you think the rather clumsy way Eloh & I decided you were trustworthy pinged you. It is what it is.

Yeah, I am sorry too. I am shocked by your reaction to me thinking you are civ.

5 people voted for BWT in this order- Elo, BWT, SVS, MP and Boo.
Out of the 5, Elo, just had an epiphany, BWT voted for himself and said that he would be willing to change if we reached a consensus on someone being a civ, SVS suddenly decided that she wants to view him after Elo voted for him and on a second read said she trusted him most as well, and even added as a reply to me asking something, that for all the baddies know, those three could be a very bold different group of baddies. MP said he's moving his vote because he trusts SVS and Elo more than he does Mongoose, and Boo...well, I have no idea why he voted for BWT.

I think this has more of a chance to be a bold baddie vote whereas the votes for llama have more of a possibility of baddies voting for a townie and wanting to look good. Maybe both votes are of the latter kind. But I can see Elo, SVS and BWT plotting and deciding to do this. Does it sound that far fetched? Maybe, lol

This! What I found weird is 3 minutes (I checked) after Elo said she changed her mind about not knowing who to vote for and voted for BWT, SVS said that on second read, she thinks BWT looks more like a civ.
It looks like maybe SVS decided Elo might know that BWT is a civ and therefore there's no point in going after him, therefore said that he seemed civ to her too. I mean where did it come from? Where was the first read? Did she look at BWT's posts because of Elo's vote? Because if so, it took her only 3 minutes to read through and decide he looked civ. Didn't like that post at all.

It's a smart play. If you don't act defensive, people often let it go. It's a play I've employed successfully in the past and so far it is working for her here. I thought the casualness seemed a little forced and calculated though.

And you are going for a Ph.D in a mathematical field.

Real funny, yes, I fucked up. I obviously meant 180.

AND Accounting is not mathematics.

Yeah, most accountants just use words like "some," "a lot," and "not enough." Numbers are too hard.

Here's my impression of Alex advising a small business:
"You have to fire some employees because you're making not enough money to stay in business, and that sucks a lot."

I take that back. I was busy when I posted before and wasn't thinking straight. *votes BWT*

Well thanks! But is there a reason you feel I'm civvie?

@MP regarding Nev: Not sure yet. Don't have a very good read on him yet. Will go back and check though.

I know I voted you on Day 1, but since then my mind has been changed about you.

Anyone have a problem with that?

Elohcin wrote:why would she defend JJ as civ then?

Why wouldn't she? Baddies defend civs all the time. If they only defended other baddies, it would be really easy to get all of them once we got one.

Prologue's End

birdwithteeth11 had a thing for dentures. Stole eleven pair from various “old birds” in Bangor, hence the name. Never in my life figured denture theft amounted to time in Shawshank, but some say at least he isn’t “horsewithteeth11,” whatever that means.

How dare you! I never stole any of those teeth! I grew them all on my own!!!

C'mere you sonuva....I'll bite your face off!
