why did you voted for her so early, if she did not actually wanted to fight, where others said they do want to fight?

Because she has not fought yet, and I think it is her turn.

but why is her turn?

unfurl wrote:but why is her turn?

It's gotta be somebody's turn. Might as well be her.

that it still does not sound like a "reason", but then I has not idea on whats going on
Im still thinking on votting for someone who wants to fight
so volunteers, please make a line, so I can look at you

omg that line smilies looks hilarious to me. ok I needs to do some work

That tired you out, I'm sure. Strike while the iron is weak.

Thanks for the clarification, SVS. I got behind and missed that (I'm in the middle of moving).

I'm on board now and will try not to let any hirsute, spitting beasts tip me overboard.

Thanks for the response SVS. I do believe both llama and DH's strategies to be simalr - meaning they both had an "us vs them" philosophy Day 1. I think we can at least agree on that.
For me DH feels more baddie bc he was all over llama when in my mind he did the same thing.

Unfurl - lol paranoia can be great in a mafia game.

Yippee! Taco Bell has arrived!

I agree with you guys re: DH and llama, at first glance they seem to have the same thoughts, but then he goes after llama for it? that's weird.

Ok - so - I'm sorry I didn't make it back last night. Ended up being much later when I got closed than I thought I was going to be.

At Penn's Grove fights went as follows:

Day 1 - Timmer v. Daisy - Daisy wins, timmer's not seriously hurt.
Day 2 - 'Sgetti vs. FH - 'Sgetti wins FH not seriously hurt. (Also - there was some discussion about FH - as of the time I'd left there, she'd not checked in and MP was considering replacing her.)
Day 3 - Johnns v Rusty - dunno who won that as I moved here.

Imma tossin' my name into the ring of fighters as well. I haven't fought yet either so there's no time like the present.

Thanks bea! I'm surprised Spaghetti fought so soon again after losing to Boogs in Wilmington.

I guess "not seriously injured" really meant not seriously injured...

Alright, so who were the first 2 people who volunteered to fight who hadn't fought yet?

I recall bea was the first one I read, as I came in, and I said that I can vote for her, if she wanted
do not remember who was the second one

Roxy said she was wary. Mongoose hasn't really volunteered. MR seems game.

Mister Rearranger wrote: Ah well, I'd like to fight if that's cool.

I'm fine with voting for MR. I had forgotten on Day 2 that he was the first volunteer, and told him I would give him a vote at a later time if he still hadn't fought yet. So this one is for you, man!

Votes MR

Gonna go ahead and vote for bea

I would prefer it be someone who wants to fight.

I would like to see an MR & Bea matchup, they both sound like they want to duke it out. But i can wait until closer to the end to vote.

And Roxy, my take on DH was somewhat colored by our interactions in DC when he & I went there the day after wwe were in Wilmington. I got the impression that he was trying to work ME up against Llama, maybe nudge me to start the thread derail we all know i can do so well. Then in DC I thought he specifically wanted to fight ME, he tried to talk someone else out of fighting at a time when I had cast the only vote. I have seen him do this to me specifically when a civ (Rabbits last game at RM that got cut short, the Arkham one), him and Rey intentionally tried to get me to freak, and they were civs.

But I have been zen, and working hard to control the freakies

If he failed at that notoriously easy task, then he really might have problems.

*Sigh*

Do you think I am incapable of change or growth? Or at least trying to get along becasue always arguing is tedious? Please do me a solid & stop implying we are UNABLE to get along? It will actually make getting along easier!

Thanks

S~V~S wrote:*Sigh*

If it makes you feel better, I genuinely laughed at it. Plus, I think llama was joking anyway.

What I get from this is that you don't find our past rivalries as funny as I apparently do. That's okay. I take a different viewpoint from you, in that I think it will be easier to get along if we constantly laugh at how we never get along and point out how ridiculous it is.

And BWT is right, I was being a jokey joke jokenheimer, as is my wont.

Voted for MR. I think a Bea/MR fight sOunds fine.

^Cool by me. Thanks, guys!

I only have one request for my opponent:

...

...Please bea gentle

Thanks for the vote of confidence folks!

This is about my speed MR:

Your sense of humor is very different than mine; I feel as if you are poking me, laughing AT me not with me, and intellectually I know this is not the case, but my lizard brain doesn't know that, so I feel what I feel, I guess. If that makes sense, which I am sure it does not. But to me, you always feel serious as a heart attack. You are one of those people, like me, actually, whose humor, I think, loses something without tone, which is notoriously hard to do in a text only format. IRL, I make people laugh all the time (and am always laughing myself); online, not so much.

I agree that joking about it can be a good way to put the past behind, but in our case, I am unable to "read" you as other than serious; sorry

EBWOP~ and I do try, honestly.

It looks like it will be Bea & MR. I know MR has been itching for a fight.

Gonna vote for Bea, cause I can't not support her

Awe....thanks svs.

Voted MR!

Sorry for not posting much. From the looks of it, it's gonna be Bea against MR, and since they both want it, I'll vote that way. I'll vote MR to even things out.

Ni - I was wanting a tie and was so glad you evened it up.
I had a tiny theory that maybe if you receive more votes than your opponent then you win - I do not believe it to be true bc of the way other fights have gone.

Yep, and it was Pierce!

Long Con had way more votes than me, and I whupped him good.

Oh - also - this is how my fight with MR is going in my hedz.

Me: You go first.
MR: No, you go first.
Me: I insist, you go first.
MR: Nonsense, you're a lady, you go first.
Me: No, no, no, you've been waiting longer, you go first.

Who should fight?

Good luck to both fighters!

I'd like to head over to Penn's Grove. Will my traveling buddies Roxy and unfurl go with me?

Any particular reason why Penn's Grove? Are only your traveling buddies allowed to go with you? I can't decided if I want to catch back up on Willmington or go check out DC as it's the only thread I've not been in yet.

I haven't been there yet and I have gaps in my records from there. (I don't know who won between Johns and Russti.) Everyone is, course, welcome to come with me, but I am reluctant to abandon my companions, since we agreed to travel together.

Ahh - got it. Do you have any results from DC? It's got the most gaps in my records too.

I think I will be making the trek to Penn's Grove as well. It's the only location I haven't visited yet.

bea wrote:Ahh - got it. Do you have any results from DC? It's got the most gaps in my records too.

Day 1
BWT fought Aces, BWT won, Aces was seriously injured

Day 2
Unfurl fought DisgruntledPorcupine and killed him.

Day 3
INH fought SVS and won. SVS was not seriously injured.

Lol @ bea.



Anyone notice the new choice tonight?

Crap! I didn't notice it. I would have picked that as an option if I had noticed it.

@Host: Is it too late for me to change my vote to Chicago, or am I stuck with Penn's Grove for now?

Oooh, I didn't see that either. That is tempting.

Thanks - IDK if it was brought up or not yet here as well, but back in the Penn's Grove thread, we found out that seriously injured players can not post/vote for the next day and night cycle while they heal.

@ MR. I did not notice the new choice - good eye.

Looks like we're thinning the crowd for more fights at a time.

I've wanted to go to Penn's Grove for a while. However, CHI is where my dude, Lupe's from:



On the offchance that I survive, would anyone like to trek with?

Also, was Chicago ever featured in the book or film? Or even the game?
