I need to have a productive summer, and then fall classes will resume. I might consider a burglary here or there.

I wanna do this but I've already sold myself to retrocausality.

I know unlynchable baddies have a bad aftertaste in some games. They didn't work in my burglary at least. If you include them you need to really think about game balance.

This game has renewed some of that motivation I'd lost I think. It remains a thing that I simply do not have the time for it, but I know I'm going to have some free time from about August so I look forward to that.

except when i use it's not alignment indicative as much as it is quin-is-a-lazy-piece-of-shit indicative

remember that.

Although it was not Scotty's doom - it fucking should have been.

Remember... the coffee...

I know. I support it. It's a thing. More of an "excuse tell" though.

Thank you for the compliment. But seriously...

g-man games always seem to be the most intense. rarely has it got anything to do with the setup. it just attracts that sort of play.
Why on God's green earth is this? This was a silly, simple game and you guys turned it into the Indy 500! Everything about this game exceeded my expectations- the intensity, the volume of posts, and outright quality of everyone's play. Day's 4, 5, and 6 were insane.

I think I've played all your games since I've joined. Not once have I finished disappointed by the result. Aside from CC123 I don't think I've actually won a game of yours either.

I typically hate bussing. FE was a rare case where it just sort of happened and I leaned into it.

We just played the biggest Heist this site has seen volume-wise and finished with an all-time great knucklebiter. We all win.

Well, except for whoever just lost.

g-man games always seem to be the most intense. rarely has it got anything to do with the setup. it just attracts that sort of play.

i think the only winner here is g-man

i dont know if im allowed to post or not but i wanna

fuck this is why i never want to be alive in a lylo situation

the throwback to mad max gives me goosebumps

makes ghost noises

did i win yet?

friendly reminder that if you don't win i'm burning this entire place to the ground

this whole thing could have been avoided if you just believed me when i called myself confirmed town

LYNCH NUTELLA FOR FUCKS SAKE

I'll have you all know my intuition was fucking great this game innit

Moved back.

Also I wanted to die if the alternative was a potential no lynch.

Quin wrote: ↑Sat Jun 02, 2018 9:26 pm No.

Quin, 3J, Marmot, nutella and Dizzy vote for Scotty.

It's 5-2 and Colin can't do shit.
Now you want to lynch Scotty? You were sure it's nutella. You didn't want yourself in a future phase.

Should I just die instead?

No.

Quin, 3J, Marmot, nutella and Dizzy vote for Scotty.

It's 5-2 and Colin can't do shit.

Or not. Thanks Marmot.

Even if all the nutella voters went to Scotty we'd still need a Quin voter to move off.

Will Scotty or Epi be here for EoD? Epi usually is.

Because Dom isn't. Other than that, you haven't impressed me in any notable way. I'm currently remedying that, but I'm looking at LoRab's posts first, because there's less of them.

I have given it some consideration but I don't think it's likely enough to risk at this point. Your eod4 looks too good especially.

I don't see the similarity. You say that he didn't impress you. Jay has given me many reasons to believe he's town.
They both mean the same thing as this:

No, it's pretty different. I have reason to actively believe Jay is town, not just that he's less likely to be bad than someone else

That's not what you said. You said you gave it consideration and don't think it likely enough. You never said he was town.

nutella wrote: ↑Sat Jun 02, 2018 9:09 pm Can we all just switch to Scotty because even I feel better about Quin from this exchange but Scotty hasn't done shit to look better

Probably because he isn't here.

We still need Epi or Scotty. This won't work otherwise.

If this can't happen make sure you're voting me at the end. It would be 100 times more helpful that I be removed from the PoE than a no lynch winds up happening and we do this all over again except at LYLO.
Is this a gambit? ^

No. It's a civilian laying out the best option for a town win.

nutella enters Day 5, what should be another tense situation, with total confidence in a Quin vote.
There was a period of total confidence, yes. Then I considered Scotty and have been frantically trying to decide between them ever since. Would you prefer Scotty over quin right now bc I'd happily switch

And here the rest of us are treating today like LYLO.

Marmot wrote: ↑Sat Jun 02, 2018 8:35 pm Also, it's not amazing odds, but based on probability from lapluie's peeks, Quin has a 25% chance of being mafia, while nutella, Scotty, Dizzy, and Jimmy all have 20% chance of being mafia. Slightly higher than everyone else's.
I think Dizzy is likely to be the last dentist.
orly?

ye

i mean i guess that applies to scotty as well

You've identified numerous points for each of them which you've judged as highly suspicious in some way or another. What is it about their play that makes them so inscrutable as to inspire awe?
That they've both come across with roughly the same balance of bad looks and good looks, and since it's this hard to decide between them then obviously whichever one is bad has done a pretty good job not looking obviously more bad than the other.

I'm happy to lynch Quin today and see what we get if more of us are leaning toward him over Scotty, but yeah let's make sure we get that good good vote margin.

What mafia schemes to do this?

JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Sat Jun 02, 2018 8:45 pm Quin, as quickly as you can, please describe the faith you have in Scotty.

I don't. He's just my second choice for the PoE and I want to get it right the first time.
