I don't... see how that would help. I already got my fight or flight triggered and fighting by being defensive is bad. Admitting I don't have any certain takes not fueled by omgus doesn't help either. Hammering before IllegallySober can get back from his meeting is pretty funny, though.

The babies gathered and began furiously debating. As the time passed it became clear that one baby was being singled out. He spoke differently to the other babies, a mind well beyond his visible years. He spoke of having lived a long life, and of now wanting only a better one for those he came across. Eloquently he made his defence, talking of how he occupied himself with the blocks, building models of japanese WWII bunkers and models of theatres in New York and Paris.

Ultimately, his words fell on ears that could barely understand english. Though spirited in his convictions, the other babies began to turn on him. Many weren’t sure if he’d done it, but they needed a culprit and he was pointed out.

Frustration boiling over, he finally turned and spoke directly to James.

“I’ve experienced a lifetime of strange occurrences. From people constantly staring at my appearance, barely learning how to walk, to a goddamn invasion of the japanese islands. This? This baby kangaroo court you’ve made here? It’s the worst thing I’ve ever seen. I’ve had enough, to hell with your cookies. I’m going home”

textbookOrigins, Benjamin Button – Daycare aligned Tracker Baby Who Has Seen Some poo poo has taken their ball and left the daycare!

Sheila looked over from where she was cleaning by the window. “What’s happened, James, who did it?”
With a very satisfied look on his face, he replied “I don’t really understand, but it looks like we’re one baby closer to being able to feed everyone.” Turning back to the remaining babies, “Doesn’t everyone just look so exhausted now. I think it’s time for a little rest so Sheila and I can clean up here. Everyone, go find your blankies!”

PLAY TIME IS OVER. IT IS NOW NAP TIME

The babies managed to get to sleep, drifting off in their own little worlds wrapped up in their blankies. A frustrated sleep for some, but the stress of the day had made them tired. Soon, sadly, they were woken by a shocked cry. Rubbing the sleep from their eyes the made their way to where one of their number stood, staring at the mess in front of them.

A few started to tear up, others just stood in silence with wide eyes. Lying on the ground was a gruesome sight. A head, with mouth agape and lifeless eyes lay before them, perhaps most importantly separated from the body lying next to it split from belly to neck. What was supposed to be inside was spilling out and onto the carpet.
As they came to realise what it all meant, one alone stood completely emotionless. He was an adventurer, a child of heightened curiosity. He’d wandered for what seemed like years as he and his companions had found themselves in many different situations but for once he’d struck out on his own. As he looked at the mess before him he was reminded why he’d left home this time around, and with a quiet voice he whispered one word.

Reptar...

The body of his favourite toy was now squished and deformed and he knew it was time to go. The daycare had been a place to stop off, to meet new friends and maybe new companions, a place to rest and plan his next adventure. Hiking up his diaper and adjusting his shirt, he turned to the doorway leading to the entrance. He gave a slow look around the circle of babies in front of him, their faces not giving him any clues as to who was responsible and he would find no one to come with him here. A short nod to each of the others in the circle and he began to walk away.

James and Sheila appeared in the doorway, called in by the initial sound of crying that they’d heard. They looked at the baby walking past them with his head held high, and saw the destroyed toy in front of them. Sharing a glance in silent horror that one of their charges could have done this, they let him walk on by.

IllegallySober, Tommy Pickles – Daycare aligned Vanilla rugrat has left the daycare in search of Reptar!

James and Sheila approached the circle of babies.

“Now kids, what did we say earlier... who did this? We need to make sure you’re all safe. We can’t have the child who did this stay any longer. Anyone who knows anything, please tell us? Once we know and have dealt with it, you can have your toys, okay?”

NAP TIME HAS ENDED. IT IS NOW PLAY TIME.

A lurker case on boogie does not make me feel much better about spokes.

Opining that my case against boogie is weak, and after i expand on it...

Somberbrero posted:

This is true in the hypothetical reality where scientastic was ever in danger of being flipped today. However, i can't see it as opportunistic when he was hardly ever in danger.

You say that not only is my argument true, but subtly trying to reinforce that boogie isn't a threat. Also laying the groundwork for boogie to come back before hammer without looking suspicious if he had to cast the deciding vote (he didn't, lol)

Somberbrero posted:

Okay I tried

Voting textbook to end the day before boogie had to defend his weird equivocating posts (but boogie did immediately show up to let us know it was hammer and to stop talking)

Boogie is suspicious as hell, and you going so hard for him is also suspicious as hell. I think you're both scum but i'll put my vote on the person who's going to read the thread and can defend themselves

Here’s where I’m at right now from a quick check of the player list:

Town

Me, obviously

Leaning Town

Scientastic: has toned down the aggression just a smidge from last game I played with him where he was super aggro and also scum. I’ve liked the thought behind his cases for the most part, he’s asking the right questions in my book.

Roydrowsy: light on posts compared to some, but tone and thought seem genuine so far

Null (mostly due to lack of posting)

dmboogie
sandnavyguy
Spokes
Tommu

Leaning Scum

TextbookOrigins: don’t like the defensive reaction to Sci’s case as stated, has continued to dig in

Somber: Didn’t like the opening comment about Sci, although I like TO as a better vote for now.

There really isn’t much to go on in most of Sober’s posts (I tried it. So many S names... gonna stick with Illegal).

They gave off a strong town feel. It looks like they were playing the game earnestly, but I don’t know that they were accomplishing a lot in the game... they had a null read on half the players at this point in the game...

Doing this on the phone sucks... let me transition over and I’ll follow up

Spokes feels a little bit like Textbook 2.
They make an obvious and convenient target coming into into day two (as sorts the second place favorite).

The problem is... as Textbook shows... when people come in and don’t know what they are done, it quickly comes off as scummy.

Spokes is weird and defensive. Definitely worth keeping an eye on. Somber - how do you think Spokes’s weird defensive play fits with with Illegal night kill?

If I were going to ascribe meaning to it, I would say that I was too obvious a NK choice and instead Spokes ganked someone willing to listen. That said, night kill spec has limits.

Think about this, Spokes climbed down off me, but I remained consistent in voicing my suspicion through the end of the day. Today, Spokes wants to vote me. What changed? He came in locked and loaded with a case prepped in response to me voting him.

"ganking somebody willing to listen" seems maybe a bit subtle for Spokes. I get those panicky noob vibes from him, but if they are scum, I can't imagine they'd be able to hide it for the rest of the day.

It’s not in response to you voting me, it’s in response to just how many of your posts are covering for boogie, who I absolutely suspect. He’s made useless post after useless post but made sure to be here for hammer so nobody had any further discussion. And then today he’s clearly reading the thread but is willing to stand aside (again) and let you try to start a train on me, just like he did yesterday on textbook and that worked out great for scum
