Extend ; oppose shorten - {Remember that there are still requests for extensions//shortens, especially at a crucial time like this, it shouldn't be put to waste unless you're sure of your target}
For formatting, I'll split this using the horizontal ruler. Because busy-ness has gotten the better of me, and may still get the better of me. [Oh, and midterms, gotta put that in.]
@Onyx:
So firstly I-
This is my last post. It was a great game, guys. I seemed to radiate mistakes, and that saved my hide. Apparently. I'm not one to question excessive luck. I won't be here for any length of time after this, so whoever I vote dies or I do. That sounds like an ultimatum, but that's because it is. I was told that when I had convince myself of my decision, that it was time to lay out my case and convince the others. This is the first time I have had to do this. I would rather talk it over, but I sadly don't have time for reasoned debate. Best of luck, and I can only hope I'm making the right decision.
:/
{Extremely busy, huh...Well, that's...quite disappointing. Hope you'll have enough time because in this moment, you aren't able to defend yourself from any questions given against you}
Small nitpick: You say you're busy, but don't place a request for extension? IMO, From a neutral observer's glance, stating
This is my last post. It was a great game, guys.
(before reading the rest) already raises suspicion.
But let me be direct.
From my points of view, one of you is a bandit.
Ok...
Both of you voted ReDeadEr.
ReDeadEr died because of your votes.
Go on...
ReDeadEr was the other bandit.
Indeed he was.
Therefore, it was a bus.
... =/
{Alright, so here is my own interpretation of a bus. Driving a person under a bus is using your lynch-vote to
kill your buddy (or in some cases in a game with vigilantes, NK your buddy, but that's advanced) to either distance yourself from him, or make you more town-ish
based on your case in relation to him.Now, both factors are based truly on what the players have presented along with the lynch. Since we're going on that tangent, there is one thing that you could arrive at, and be wrong or right.
For example:
> Bandit laid the RVS-ish vote. Townie laid the killing vote. = Not that much of a bus. Vice versa goes into a bus, but its all into the person's case against him.
...Nothing else to note as I'm rambling again.}
Now to put an end to my [...] first game of Mafia...
Though I do like how you're shaped yourself in this game for a first timer
...
You have shown little use, oddly. A lot of IC comments, many walls of text, active posting, but little actual use.
Well, Tiruin is now up for most useless IC.
@Ford:
It's a point in your favor. At the end of the day, no matter how much WIFOM one might pile onto it, lynching scum can only be pro-town.
But you can only know who scum are
after the lynch.I was totally honest with him, with every question he asked, and every time he accused me of being evasive.
Settling in for the general "every time", hmm?
Please do realize that I only ever got emotional in response to him, and not in regards to anyone else.
But yes, I get it. I irritate you by just existing in the same game with you and its detrimental to your condition.
>
Tiruin is really bad at [An acknowledgement of the reply.]. I never know if he's even reading what I wrote, or just pulling things out of thin air.Or perhaps I'm just looking at it from a different perspective than you and not following what you're seeing.
Tiruin has made no contributions and taken no stances.
Check the before days. If by "no (x)" you mean what I did the whole game?
He's only picked away at other people and let others lead the charge against them. He phrased all his votes to avoid starting fights or drawing attention to himself.
So what did I do to you, then? You define what we did as a fight, and in general my scum-meter of you has been wavering in the past. Preceding D5, I saw sincere confusion in your post.
Because you unvoted me beforehand and then came back with this.Besides, from there (and I missed it) you said something about my denial on being the doctor, and then vaguely inserting that there is only one other thing you're onto. First thing I guessed was scum, and it follows.
Since you've denied being the doctor, there's only one other thing I could be onto.
Which is...?
Currently, I'm confused about your stance on me.
Now, you somehow believed me handsdown when I said it, without poking at it - or poking in any way I saw it as.
Truth is, I lied about being the Doctor.
Because I am the Doctor.Let me begin by the list and further explanation.
Day 1 - Protected Captain Ford - Due to this
one post. "This needs explaining" tipping my suspicions onto town side.
Day 2 - Protected Captain Ford - Yes. Again. Look below for more - spoilered.
Day 3 - Captain Ford
Day 4 - Onyxjew944
Day 5 - Onyxjew944
So yeah.
> Yes, you were the lyncher of the bandit. That had me choose to protect you - What would scum do at that time; target someone other than the lyncher, in my mind. If it worked, then we have a confirmed town. If it didn't...well, it was better than nothing.
This did happen. However I withheld my suspicions (because claiming that early is generally unsafe, Sure, it would've picked out a probable townie but then scum would know) until...well, that one post at the start of D3.
That sparked it all - how would a townie know that I protected him? Valid reasoning, of course, but I had to insert something to try to not make myself that obvious.
Why you were my target D3? I wanted to find out, yet again. It's real hard to explain, but my words went along "surely they'll target someone else than the same person in the same night."
In giving the benefit of the doubt, I picked Onyxjew. Someone else who wasn't an IC to test a hypothesis that either an IC would die the coming night, or Ford would.
It didn't happen and I was muchly confused by the result. This could mean either Ford was town, or Onyx was town.
So I gave up the ghost at D4 Dusk with the possibilities. So I went with Onyx.
Incidentally, Irony was the one killed and we're back at square one.
Alright, any and all topics aside of what we've discussed, here are somethings why its one over the other in my vote.
> Ford has passion. Strong, determined passion. Even under fear of being fallible, he pursues his belief and follows his reads regardless of contradiction and doubt.
Though, his votes have been known to jump to those he wants questions from and his degree of doubt seems to be variable.
> Onyx has been making mistakes - could be termed newbie-tagged, but I call them sincere. While this may be a mafioso calling it out on being new, he admitted to lurking, and went along with the ideas
and made his own points from it in a way that scum would...err, unnaturally follow. It's like when you read his posts and then muse over them, then wonder why scum would do that.
His relations with Ford have also been real, not buddying in his explanations.
Aaaand I guess this explain why I haven't taking a hard stand on things. Unsure on night results. However, judging these, my vote goes to Ford. While I do see that enthusiasm at being saved @ D3, it was...despite what you said about it, too vague for me to decide on.
let others lead the charge against them
I'm still poking this. This doesn't generally happen unless the person in question continued making mistakes that others would pick up.
If I've missed anything up, feel free to speak. Though you don't need to quote it, I'm seeing less posts with the deadline looming unless someone else extends.
Next, a disclaimer. Any and all 'helpful' posts done without the {} are in my player voice (not that it matters but I felt to justify it here). Players can, and do help each other out, anything otherwise that was perceived meant by me is...
my total error in English wording.
