A Mafia Game taking place in the East [Game Thread - Concluded]

[johnhughthom]

I was just waiting for y'all to get off Kennigit and come up with something to get behind. I'm always happy to be third on a BSmith wagon.

 

[Count Dingdong]

I was gone for a day or so and completely forgot how on-time this game is. Four(?) pages to catch up on, give me a bit. I probably won't be on much at all tomorrow, especially at day-end, since D&D. Sorry in advance...

Okay, I'm looking over things and writing this post as I go. I figure I'll make this a train-of-thought post for the heck of it. I'm also doing a vote count so I have any clue where we stand.

Current Vote Count (~16.5 hours left)
choxorn - 5 (edse, remake20, KingMorgan, spaceman98, JohannaK(JoanK...), Double A)
Kennigit - 5 (Internet Flea, Caelian, Snerk, Murska, Zack)
BSmith1068 - 3 (spaceman98, choxorn, johnhughthom)
remake20 - 2 (Kennigit, BSmith1068)
Zack - 1 (Newyn)
Newyn - 1 (Verarde)
edse - 1 (Sprig)
Murska - 0 (Zack)

No Vote - 6 (TheLuigiBrother, Riedquat, Legato Endless, Count Dingdong, WinterLilium, TFT)

Okay, so that's that. It looks like we've got close stuff up at the top. choxorn and Kennigit are tied, with BSmith coming up again. Maybe it's just me, but I find it odd that first Kennigit came up following yesterday's lack of a lynch, and now BSmith returns as the 'alternative' wagon again. Perhaps I'm missing something, but both of them got votes pretty easily yesterday, and the votes came easily enough today as well. The flow of the lynch seemed pretty heavily against them, and I'm used to seeing that with villagers. On one hand, BSmith had pretty much no resistance to his initial bandwagon. On the other, the counterwagon pretty much overwhelmed, and I was surprised when I came back to no lynch. On that regard, perhaps choxorn was suspicious in taking his vote away, but I also purposefully withheld my vote (I could certainly have pushed the hammer; the heavy swap, though, made me unsure...).

So we have Kennigit, then choxorn, then BSmith today. Interestingly enough, choxorn and Kennigit have been splitting the vote pretty well during the day, but this BSmith wagon popped up suddenly once more. Writing up this vote tally earlier, I realized I had no clue where this Luigi guy is or what he's doing. Riedquat's also been pretty quiet. ...I'm used to WinterLilium being rather quiet, so... a bit of leeway there. I do suffer from not knowing many of you, but I suppose I'll push another vote on the choxorn wagon to see where that takes us. He's up there in votes right now, he's anti-Kennigit-lynch but pro-BSmith-lynch. And there could be something with spaceman, too... From my lacking position, it seems that he at least will give the most information of the current candidates.


So, that makes 6 for choxorn for the vote tally above. And I've voted now.

Bleh, rereading and seeing more of what people who know choxorn and others think. For now, my vote stands, though I can certainly be convinced to vote otherwise. But posting for now to get my thoughts out there.

 

[KingMorgan]

Choxorn has absolutely no qualms about bussing teammates, he'd throw you under in an instant.

Unvote: choxorn however BSmith1068 has had his name splashed about a bit and made zero defence. Out of the 3 leading candidates he is the one we have hear the least from.

At the moment i've been thinking why the the dead guys were chosen, not many would off Southern first, that narrows down the list fair bit, unless of course it was RNG then there would be nothing to gleam.

 

[BSmith1068]

1. There really isn't anything to defend against.
2. It is the weekend and I am always less talkative on the weekend.
3. We should be pressuring people that haven't already been pressured.

 

[Legato Endless]

Also fairly inundated this weekend. So I'm too going to hypocritically poke another inactive.

TheLuigiBrother , thoughts about all of this?

What I don't like about this sentiment is that choxorn's vote makes no sense under the assumption that he would bus willingly. At this point, I'm really conflicted as to whom to vote for...

I'm not sure what you mean, exactly. If you assume him and Kennigit are teammates, it doesn't make much sense, but in any other context it's fine. What don't you "like" about it, that it conflicts with your vote?

In any case, choxorn is a bad lynch, for reasons both in-thread and in private. I'm not crazy about lynching Kennigit or BSmith either, but it's better than chox at least. I could get behind a remake lynch, but there's barely three hours left in the day and he doesn't have enough votes.

 

[Zack]

Nevermind, I see you're not voting choxorn anymore.

 

[Riedquat]

Blahblahblah.... don't like any of those wagons, instead I will go after our dear KingMorgan who went from being the third from the choxorn bandwagon to the recurrent BSmith wagon...

Vote: KingMorgan

 

[Zack]

Assuming Count Dingdong's tally is correct...

5 choxorn (edse, remake20, JohannaK, Double A, Count Dingdong)
5 Kennigit (Internet Flea, Caelian, Snerk, Murska, Zack)

4 BSmith1068 (spaceman98, choxorn, johnhughthom, KingMorgan)

2 remake20 (Kennigit, BSmith1068)

1 Zack (Newyn)
1 Newyn (Verarde)
1 edse (Sprig)
1 TheLuigiBrother (Legato Endless)
1 KingMorgan (Riedquat)

3 Not Voting (TheLuigiBrother, WinterLilium, TFT)

 

[choxorn]

but there's barely three hours left in the day and he doesn't have enough votes.

Huh? Takhisis's timer says there's 6 hours.

[Sprig]

For the amount of posts there really hasn't been that much substance. I had the opportunity yesterday to have lynched Kennigit. Ironically, I chose not to.

I still feel Kennigit is still not the right lynch so it is the alternative. I don't feel it for Choxorn either but if i have to choose between the two.

 

[Zack]

No, choxorn is the absolute worst choice. Try again. At least explain yourself, instead of that wishy-washy vague nonsense.

 

[JohannaK]

Sigh. I don't know why I'm doing this, but okay. You're being too insistent.

[JohannaK]

I am willing to trust him on this. And maybe you should, too.

 

[Zack]

Says the master

I have already explained in-thread why choxorn is a worse lynch than Kennigit, plus there are additional reasons in private legitimizing choxorn's innocence. I am not crazy about lynching Kennigit, but he is absolutely the better choice here.

And I certainly gave reasons beyond "well i like choxorn i guess," which is what you basically said.

 

[Internet Flea]

Sigh. I don't know why I'm doing this, but okay. You're being too insistent.

choxorn Kennigit

I think there was a comment earlier about "don't use strikeouts for unvoting anymore".
