what? why.

I mentioned it briefly yesterday, but I feel like she's played a more reactionary game than an active one. I've seen her responding to cases than making her own. She was one of the many to hop on the DDL bandwagon today. She's remained silent otherwise today.
Plus everyone's an alternative, right?

I jokingly said "I told you not to lynch reywas" after I had voted to lynch reywas.

@S~V~S tell us what you think.

We are running out of time.

Well how was I supposed to know I was gonna say that before the lynch?
I don't know, the same way you seemed to know he was town before the lynch.
Do you suspect me for this?
Yes, a bit. But mostly just bantering because it's fun
Alright cool because it never happened. I voted for reywas and my original response was a joke.

This exchange worries me because it could be Opportunism 101. I crapped out a fake reason for lunalee to suspect me and she pounced on it.
Also I missed that last response.

That was like the most important part.

Why did you suspect me without checking if your case was actually based in fact?

And she never touched it after I called her out on it at the end. [mention]Lunalee[/mention] what's up with that?

But also made sure to walk it back by claiming it was "just banter". So it's hedging as well as opportunism. Bad look.

A name is floated and agreed upon. Suddenly, 6 votes pile on that player without much critical discussion.

You seem to be forgetting that scum mates sometimes buss each other for town cred. At this late in the game, it's not a bad idea to get your teammate lynched and come out looking good.
This late in the game, one mislynch could very well end it.
Agreed. I just don't want to reason out of a DDL lynch if he's actually bad. And I think there's good evidence that he is. If he is bad and a teammate started pushing for a different lynch, and he gets lynched anyways, it would out most of the team. Which is why the lynch could be "right" and also "easy"
For the sake of argument, let's pretend he is town. Who do we lynch instead?
probably nutella

Why?

i didn't mean to put the suspish face at the top of that post

Big ass push on DDL is yuck.
Why blame luna more than g-man or anyone else for that matter? If anything I think Luna looks bad for pushing speed and then going back to ddl, so I think she and ddl are potential teamies. Do you think ddl is town?
I don't blame luna. I just think she's a shady looking person that's not DDL.

The big push against DDL in general has me second guessing the suspicion against him. Luna is an alternative.
Actually, literally everyone else here is an alternative.

This is true. You gonna make a point?

I believe speedchuck did the "big ass pushing" with his post of DDL quotes. I simply saw a good case and joined it.

I should have separated the thought from the vote. I do not criticize you for making a big push on DDL.

A big push happened against DDL. Everybody voted for him at once. I do not like that. I slid down the list to another suspect. That other suspect is you. I remain open to discussion of other names.

Since it doesn't look like we're getting a response...

Is this vote representative of your input on my 'either/or' DDL/Nutella thing, or is it just a vote?

I suppose it can be taken as both. I await nutella’s response, but in the meantime I would prefer DDL as a suspect.

I’d also like to note that the only two votes prior to mine were from sabie and luna, both of them on you.

[VOTE: Dragon D Luffy] aubergine

Things gotta happen.

I’ve boldly and perhaps foolishly slapped a town read on nutella again. I look forward to her response to speedchuck’s big ole case there.

It’s not up to me to tell you guys how to read me in a game that i joined late and am operating at like 10% of a maximum effort. My posts are my posts. If you think they come from a civilian, that’s nice. If not, that’s too bad. There’s no magic rabbit for me to pull out of my hat.

I expected some sort of strong response on at least one of the questions I’ve asked, but all I’ve got back is a bunch of shrugs. I don’t have the time to do any thorough digging myself, but I’m trying to move things forward in a more facilitatory role.

The reads I shared in my reywas vote are the closest I can come to substantive opinions on things. DDL seems the closest thing to a consensus scum read and I don’t see a glowing civilian when I look at him, so I might just default to him. I’ve had an uneasy feeling about SVS for a couple days too. The exchange I had with luna was enough to make me doubt her a little, but not enough to lock her down as scum.

That’s not for me to say here.

Is there a reason I should town read SVS?

What’s the abridged version of the DDL case?

I was mildly pinged by luna admitting to suspecting me for a thing that literally never happened last night. But it could have been completely inconsequential.

I told you guys not to vote for reywas

[VOTE: reywas] aubergine again, I guess.

I took a glance at all the ISOs earlier and I came away feeling okay about DDL. He’s seemed to be actively making things happen this game. I’d expect scum to be playing more reactionary right now given the generally poor state of things for the Good Guys. Let us continue to lynch ourselves, and just give gentle nudges to keep us on the right (wrong) track. SVS is a player I could accuse of that, but I’m not so sure i want to vote for her. DDL is not. reywas feels like he’d fall into that criteria, but I mainly jus thave a vague gut feeling about him based on a snippets of things I’ve read.

speedchuck wrote: ↑Wed Feb 06, 2019 6:01 pm This DDL lynch seems as 'easy' as every other lynch that's happened up till now. Sloonei's like, the only one trying to start up discussion and it's falling flat. Makes me nervous, like the flow of the thread is just gonna bury DDL and people are sitting back and letting it.

I’m like barely trying, and it’s only because I don’t know what’s going on.
