Quite a brilliant move actually. So then Andrew took out Nev?
Yes.
How did Andrew know about Nev? That was such a stroke of luck for us.

That's a play I call 'sidekicking' - once we figured out you were Topham, and therefore extremely powerful and likely to remain until the end, I started trying to seem to help you achieve your goals so you'd think me on your side :-)

I'm used to being not trusted, thought it was civ one night and you lot the other. But maybe you are right. I was a total failure at this game.
You did well, and if we hadn't known you were unkillable we'd definitely have wasted at least one try on you because you were a threat to us. Nev and I had worked to make it so that if one of us was lynched the other would have an airtight alibi so we expected everyone to trust at least one of us regardless.

Thanks, we worked pretty hard at it. It was Nev's idea so he should get the credit but its been done many times and fooled many a civvie so don't feel too bad about it.

After Nev died, I was convinced you had pulled the same thing for another player too, but based on what I knew of Snow Dog I couldnt figure out how he and Nev could be bad, so I thought it had to be McViper.
I kinda feel like we did try to protect Lizzy and Krissy a bit but that was more diverting attention on to us and away from the quieter players. Our goal, in Epi's words, was to cause Confusion and Delay so it's good to hear that we accomplished that!

Since snow dog voted for me, I asked him who he targeted, which was Nev. I misinterpreted his answer as Snow Dog and Nev being civ. Clearly it was just Snow Dog and not Nev too, but after the Night, Snow started to think Nev was good, so I thought he knew for sure. I had not figured out Snows role at this point yet though.

I did not use my secret to full advantage either. First day, no one wanted to vote for noobs, so fail. Then once it picked up everyone lynched llama quick, so seemed more and more tricky to play bad and good. So just went for good.
I beg to differ. You figured out my game with that last post, which I though was absolutely amazing. :haha: Unfortunately the PM had been sent prior to it.
I think you might be giving me too much credit. I was swinging all over the place between you and Viper. Your posting style is extremely effusive and expressive. Works very well in this game. i just didnt want you to be a dirty diesel. :p

I am *never* too quiet.. Quite the opposite really - I have been lynched so early so often because I talk way too much :-)

For sers. That actually could have worked, but we would have got Lizzy and Bullz. Not sure how long it would have taken to figure out Nev and Krissy. :llama: Also I should have known this one was yours.

FWIW I wouldn't put too much stock in the Llama gambit as it's easy for a baddie to claim that they're a civvie doing the same thing. I'd probably have voted Llama that day even if I was a civvie based on that reason, as unless there's someone I really need dead I always make actual cases for who I'm voting as a baddie.

Sorry I'm coming in here a bit late. I have been quite busy making cakes :) I hope you all had a lot of fun this game. The dirty diesels played an excellent game, congrats to them.

As for Simon's smarts, I'd call it a child's instincts. From the start, he had three of the four diesels pegged. When he found that Krissy wasn't Diesel 10, he said she must be Mavis. Towards the end of the game, Simon guessed that McViper was Henry and that Lizzy was 'Aary.

Also, I have one question...Has anyone who played this game watched Lost? C'mon, there were at least two Lost references in each Night post and no one said a thing. Rob and I thought you guys would think it was pretty hilarious. :haha:

I was right! Krissy was Mavis and Lissy was 'Aary!

I forgot about the scrap yard. Now the game is over and I don't have to type in red.

Oh yeah, Lost was all over the place, but I hadn't totally noticed until Dharma Initiative was mentioned, then saw it everywhere. All the good poll answers too. Wanted to vote on eggs "However Jacob likes them"

If Lizzy hadn't have been off the poll I would have voted for her. Maybe McV would have too. Really the game ended when she won thos badges.

I knew it! I said in our chat when you didn't vote Viper that the only reason you tied it up was because you wanted to vote Lizzy. It made me think we'd lost the game for a while, until we realised that we could kill Viper and count on Rey not showing up.

Yep.

It suddenly dawned on me somehow as I was comtemplating following Lizzy's vote. His quotes from the insanifier (??) were bin quotation marks. As if directly taken from that translator. I dunno. Suddenly I believed he was really Biffed and Lizzy had been faking it. And then i went back to the Hosts comment "All useful engines can earn badges" and "pow" it hit me between the eyes. Any useful engine...including diesels. I had misinterpretated it before with the help of the fiendish Lizzy.

I realised she had fooled me and that was it. But too late.

Ah, we were very sure Viper was an engine because we figured he'd switched the lynch that killed either me or Nev. I don't remember which but we guessed his role from that. We just hoped Rey was a narrow gauge, and as it turns out we were in luck.

DP and reywaS were the only Narrow Gauge Engines to have BTSC. Others were successful in their searches, but one of them was killed the Night they searched.

I wish reywaS had been more involved. I needed a more experienced player with me at the end. And I wish A person had been more helpful. He acted so suspiciously.

I wish you'd been less invincible. We really needed a powerful civ role that could *be killed* instead of one that couldn't..
