Finally, some substance.
I'll first make it clear that my last post had two purposes: to get both of you talking and to possibly ensnare OSG. I was half-expecting him to jump on Elephant Parade at the first sign of me backing off (a clear sign he'll jump to kill anyone to save himself as scum would), but he defused that right away.
Elephant Parade:As for me being in "lockstep" behind you: I think you're exaggerating a bit, but there are two factors that I think contribute to that; the first is that I generally get home after you and OSG talk for a while, and the second is that I'm playing pretty lazily at this point. I'll try to come up with some more original arguments.
I was being a bit dramatic. Maybe even more than I intended, because I arranged the first letters in my questions to you to begin with T-R-A-P for Reverie-is-being-weird insurance in case hanging out on a limb to suddenly press you and trap OSG all at once did backfire. Anyways, your answer feels transparent and I do buy the timezone shenanigans argument. It's hard for us to chat directly in this game (it's 2:30AM here!), but try not to be lazy if you can for future reference, it's spooky to just be agreed with.
origamiscienceguy:I've been on the defensive because I had two votes against me. I still feel the need to defend myself because Revarie's Faux-vote on you was just for a change in pace. I am pretty confident that he will change it back to me in a little bit.
First of all, no fun. I was hoping to wrap this up cleverly with a neat little bow and a whirlwind win for town after that disaster of a D1.
Secondly, there is nothing stopping you from making an argument if you have one. If you haven't noticed, we have all the time we could ever want and it literally makes no difference if you have two fake votes on you if you have any vestige of an argument to make. That's the thing with being town and also under attack. You're more useful playing productively and not being completely turtle-y. TempAcc could have used this advice. I'd very much have welcomed an actual argument out of him against me (that wasn't the vague statement that I was playing into his theories). It beats folding. Unless you're scum.
I really can't put my suspicion of Revarie into concise words, but I'll try my best: She went after TempAcc day one, and everybody followed her (except for me because of unrelated reasons I am sure you know of.) Day 2, she immediately goes after me, and you follow. She has basically been controlling the game this entire time.
You're right, and that scares the shit out of me. I've never been the most active/aggressive player in a game before, and certainly not agreed with by a majority (even if there are just five of us), but to put things into perspective, that's just roo and Elephant Parade we're talking about. And one is dead, confirmed scum. I don't think that is quite as bad as it sounds, but that brings us to...
Her arguments so far have been wrong.
Surprise! I'm only human. I've been in enough mafia games to know that D1 is always a mess. This is like 50% of what made me nervous yesterday. The balance for this setup looks so stacked against town simply because we have nil to go on at the start. And the start is like 90% of the game.
At one point, she even said something like "I know this is your plan, and it won't work."
You paraphrase that more cut and dry than it actually was, but I was trying to intimidate you here. You'd be silly if you thought that I knew this for sure.
Anyways, I do think you're scum, and enough so to lock in and finish the game barring drastic stuff. It's not over until you guys say it is though, so we'll keep going until we're all ready.
