TT. Or an actual case rather than "Oh, guess we should pile on someone with a vote" (which was done at a time when 4 or 5 players each had one vote)

The arbitrariness of choosing Ix is suspect to me.

I mean, its like 4 minutes to deadline, but it irks me.

I am irked.

We should probably lynch someone who already has a vote on them.

Like, this is the post that starts the Ix wagon... why Ix? The 2 most recent votes at that point were on Jedit and my vote on TT. It feels arbitrary but not really.

I am suspicious of PM, and either Jedit or TT if PM was trying to protect them.

Back from MTG. Ixt was a bad push, do not like ST for the ixt vote. Also very suspicious of Grandicap. It's the 3/5 compromise. Third and fifth votes are scum.

I could agree with you, but I'm more inclined to dislike Pinterest Mom. Toasted has done some really dumb things under pressure before, but he wasn't under pressure here.

And yeah; I voted Ixtlilton because I was going to bed, we had even less than usual to go on and I thought he was as good a pick as anyone. When five people jump on a fairly open joke vote, I'd like to know why.

Pinterest Mom

I didn't look at the initial vote you placed on Ix. We were near deadline and it wasn't clear that we would have enough people for a lynch. It wasn't a case of protecting TT or Jedit - because the initial votes on TT and Jedit were more recent, that meant the people who voted for them were around and we needed a total of 8 people around to lynch them. Ixt's vote was older and it wasn't clear Jedit was around, so we only needed 7 people to lynch. I was really just trying to avoid a no lynch.

I think it's going to be pretty easy for some people to complain about a bad vote push but like, almost literally half the players hadn't made any actual game related posts and only a few people even bothered to be around for the deadline. Ixt was as good as most in a game where nobody cares or tries.

I hope you're not including me in the "couldn't be bothered" pack there. Deadline is something like 4am my time, I cannot be expected to be around.

In all fairness, I was being a little harsh there, I'm sure many mafia players actually have lives. Still, a bunch of people weren't around for the deadline for whatever reason.

Also, if enough people were busy they could have told Opop or like, at least told the thread or made a vote.

I had people over and was drunk. I was expecting the game to be happening much earlier (THANKS LOWTAX) in the week, so... :shrug:

I agree with the first half, but not necessarily the second. Day 1 really hosed things up and now it feels like Day 2 is going to be D1 minus a townie.

Interesting. Ixt wasn't really in any danger, because he was at -3 instead of -2, but he actually was scum.

I'm liking Hal for Town because of this post. Normally I don't like turbos, but if he were scum and knew Ixt was scum I don't think he would have started a second push after his team managed to dodge the first one.

We had two NKs. That means two scum teams, a vig or an SK - probably. I shan't ask anyone to claim, but if anyone's a bad guy it's apostate. Claiming to be Skurge the loving Executioner, AKA "The Evil One"? If I hadn't gone to bed after voting I'd have switched my vote for that.

##vote apostateCourier

Yes, this is a flavour vote. But flavour does seem to have a strong correlation to role in this game: the Enchantress beguiles people into loving her, hence Loved, and Fandral is one of the Warriors Three - his mason buddies are presumably Hogun and Volstagg. I don't think it's a stretch to suggest the guy who just claimed to be a psychopathic killer and the former lover of our dead scum is perhaps not on the side of light.
