A Tale of Middle Earth: Game OVER

[Gabriel Kross]

I have a great strategy, lynch me end day, I'll be done, and town can ignore everything I said even though I'm likely right on the majority of my reads. I can be done with this game, and re-retire from playing mafia.

[Hallia]

I'm sorry you feel that way EP :(

I approve of this strategy. Call his bluff.

Nope. I said I understood why I might be lynched - but that doesn't mean I would lay down easy.

[Andrej]

EP do me a favor.

 

Cut if with the cry baby crap, okay?

 

If you're a villager here then buck up and find some wolves to kill. This is Mafia, people are going to suspect you and accuse you and do all sorts of other things to affect you. You should know this considering you've been around the block a few times.

[Talya]

I have checked Yates 1.0 on Alot and he voted because Alot said to get rid of half the players and he's play, so yates decided to get rid of him.

 

Yates then had a set 2 against AJ, in which this was bought up.

 

 

 

I wasn't particularly fond of the way he reacted to Sooh voting him earlier.

Too bad so sad, imo.

The way he postured around Seph and the EP wagons made me uncomfortable then and still does now in light of EP's soft balling and Seph's later profession.

You say "posturing," I say "resolving." *shrug*

He hedged on his read of Zander saying he liked the post but also leaves himself open to possibly move there later.

You say "hedging," I say "RESOLVING." *shrug again*

I also think he went over the top complimenting Tina on her posts and I'm curious as to his focus regarding me and my read of her. He also made a comment towards her early on that basically soft balled a town read on her slot. I haven't really decided how I feel about the entire interaction completely but I could see scum!Yates doing this as a pocketing attempt on a town!Tina

Of all the people in this game to pocket, you think I'd pick *TINA?* Does she strike you as someone I could easily pocket given our game history and her style of play? That strikes me a bit like you accusing me of trying to pocket a honey badger. The fact of the matter is that Tina's post was EXACTLY what I needed to see from her to get a good read on her. And she hit that thing out of the park. I have precisely TWO strong Town reads at this moment - Tina and Sili - and I think I made those reads pretty clear.

TBH - I would have expected someone to accuse me of buddying Pizza [hi, Sooh/Corn!] given the childish man-crush posts I've lobbed in that direction. And that would have required some explaining but Tina? I think that's a fairly clear READ.

Oh, and the throw away vote on Alot that I forgot to mention.

Oh. I'm sorry. Is Alot not on your team? I don't have mod provided knowledge on alignments so for me that isn't a "throw away" vote.

He's done a lot of posturing around some players that were being discussed at the time but I don't get the impression he's really pushing in any direction.

I feel like I had to make this argument to Seph wrt Sili. Not sure why I have to ask YOU the difference between Yates "posturing" and Yates solving the game but help a brother out?

For instance he talks about having Seph and EP wagons being a good thing but never really drives either of them.

Was I in a position to drive either of those wagons? Pretty sure I was commuting home/making dinner while that drama played out.

For him later to throw a vote on Alot seems too easy and doesn't come with a lot of accountability.

I'm the ONLY person voting for Alot. Pretty sure that's why you are trying to characterize it as a throw away vote. How am I NOT accountable for the only vote on someone? A "no accountability" vote is sheeping onto a big wagon and saying "yeah - I agree with everyone else on this wagon" not being the only person on one. Step it up, son.

 

 

He still doesn't explain it but uses to it link AJ and Alot.

[Askthepizzaguy]

If you're guilty, EP, this is pretty weaksauce as a defense. Please don't ever, ever do it again.

 

If you're a villager, them's the breaks but it sounds like mafia isn't a game for you, but I don't ever believe you're a villager here until I see your card.

 

Basically the single worst kind of defense a wolf can give, it should be against the rules because its so distasteful.

[Askthepizzaguy]

I think you should be policy lynched at this point for using such a tactic.

[Talya]

EP - Why are you voting Tab?

[Talya]

Or are you voting tina, you are showing as both on the last vote count? grrr

[Gabriel Kross]

EP do me a favor.

Why, nobody is listening anyways. I have no desire to win at this point. It has nothing to do with being accused. I actually almost pissed myself laughing at the case Pizza tried to make on me when I finally decided to read it.

 

EP - Why are you voting Tab?

because not participating is the most anti-town thing in this game. To be fair I'm willing to vote anyone on my list other than Hallia, as I actually believe her claim.

I think you should be policy lynched at this point for using such a tactic.

1: it's not a defense I legitimately don't want to be in this game anymore, but don't want to replace out just for the individual to die anyways.

2: the game was perfectly fine and rolling at a decent pace until this phase started it took 24 hours for people to really get involved in this phase. As a vanilla town it makes the game impossible to play for me considering I tend to be on the more active side of games

3: again you're assuming this is coming from a mafia standpoint which it is not.

4: so now it goes from you wanting to vote me because you think I'm a mafia, to you don't care and want me dead. Noted

[Talya]

Wolf team Alot thinks Hallia is a wolf, village couldn't pose a threat to the wolves if they tried, regardless of my claimed power due to me being outed.

 

They are not bussing one of their own, there is no purpose in doing so, but using the wolves' better vantage point than my own, and the fact that I have peeks clearing others, Hallia likely is a wolf.

 

I was halfway through reading her villager here, when it finally dawned on me what is happening.

 

This is fantastic. This is why village will win this game now. This is as good as three guilty peeks.

 

Pizza, can you please explain this to me more, thanks

[Andrej]

 

EP do me a favor.

Because it's good to have on record for the future if you're proven innocent. I still want to see your opinion on Tina. You said something about ISOing her?

 

Throwing in the towel when the first person starts to seriously pressure you looks to me like you could be going into anti-spew mode. Help me out if you're a villager. We NEED to lynch a wolf today.

[Talya]

I swear my eyes are going now...

 

EP if you are town, please don't give up the game we need you! At present I don't want to vote someone who keeps saying to vote him, not because I believe you are a villager, I'm not sure, but I would rather vote for someone I thought was wolfie. As for Tabor, I didn't like it when people don't vote and don't participatee in the game. I don't like just voting them off to get rid of them, and any pressure it may have caused has not got them to vote.

 

If you want a bad day you can have mine, I've done 11 hours and had to go to some meeting, I now have a spliting headache trying to get my head round tthis game which I have been doing since I got home and to top if all off it is my birthday! so start thinking...who else is on your wolfie list. Has it changed since the beginning of day if it has what has made you think differently

[Leelou]

Who is willing to vote Tina today? Show of hands please? 

[Talya]

I'll have a quick look at her, I had her down as townish, and on my read of Yates 1.0 he thought it quite strongly. At the moment I'm feeling a little lost.

[Leelou]

[v]Tina[/v]

 

Just to get this going. 

[Andrej]

[v]Tina[/v]

 

Happy Birthday Talya (I just realized I had been calling you by the wrong name all game )

[Andrej]

Still don't want to let Taborline off the hook yet but I think pressure on Tina will do some good.

[Talya]

[v]Tina[/v]

 

Happy Birthday Talya (I just realized I had been calling you by the wrong name all game )

haha...I hadn't noticed, that's as bad as me calling Seph Seth...and thank you

[Leelou]

Happy Birthday! *gives Talya some TQ*
