My vote yesterday was pretty much a throwaway but I still have nothing on Gulag except for he's got a lot of white noise and a knife. The day 1 theory of "hmm maybe scum are saving their knives to use at the end" is becoming more and more likely and I don't like it. What's worse is that hardly anyone has interacted with him which is weird for both town and scum. He must be doing something to communicate if he's not posting with town and there's no masonry SOOOOO. Every vote has been jumping on a wagon.

Also I don't know why Ixt is all over my balls but whatever.

##vote GulagDolls

What is this post even saying except:
1. My vote yesterday was unimportant! Please don't look at it too hard;
2. Obvious speculation about vig:
3. No one is talking to Gulag, so I guess he is scum because?????

Dear LiveJournal,
I think I own a pocket t-shirt dress but not an actual pocket t-shirt. And the pocket on the dress isn't even big enough to hold a pack of cigarettes. It's a decorative pocket, but pockets on shirts are ugly. I don't understand but I bought it for a dollar so it doesn't make sense to complain, right?

Quid I just gotta say I like your square-as-a-Ford-Windstar style, your footnotes brighten my day even if they are basically the least candid way to post.

I'll buy that you forgot but I don't get why it took you an hour to unvote. Yeah Pinmom had a bad vote, but there are a lot of bad votes in the game and I don't get where that one was bad enough to keep voting Pinmom. Meh, honestly at this point? You're more active than Scruffy and this game is dying of apathy so yeah, Scruffy's a better vote than you for now.

I don't like that "maybe actually read the game sometime" thing though. No reason to be so hostile, be cool baby drat

Pintrest isn't a good stab IMO, you'd have to be pretty insane as a scum to D1 vig a fellow scum just to make yourself look good.

I don't think that QPQ is a good lynch still. His arguments may not be to peoples liking but he is hunting avidly.

I also don't care much for the personal arguments of LUTR and MCS again. I voiced my opinion on MCS yesterday in votes.

Scruffles wants to lynch the guy with a confirmed stab which is a bit suicidal of him considering Gulag has made it clear he will stab before he gets hung.

Gonna think for a min then vote.

I dunno man, the only holding me back on QPQ is how he reacted when he was gonna die. I'm assuming that a die the first one to reach the number of votes dies anyway.

The death mechanic in this game is pretty nervewracking because since it's a plurality, the usual group agreement isn't there. There are votes spread all over the place and three or four is enough for someone to be the day's dunk. So if you're one vote behind the vote leader and you're watching the minutes creep up to deadline, you know that if someone comes in at the last minute and ties you with the person who's led for the last hour, you're dead and there's nothing you can do about it except try to get that one extra vote on the leader so you're two behind. It's a tough way to play, usually if you're an hour from deadline with two votes you can relax and scumhunt, in this game it's like two votes? oh gently caress there's a decent chance it's me.

idk it is weird and I can't parse the last sentence in your post but it could definitely make someone act out of character.

Are we going to pretend that this game hasn't lived and died in the few hours right before the deadline? Almost all the activity occurs immediately before or after the lynch. It's a mistake to pretend that consensus somehow formed and that everyone had their final say at midnight yesterday when the case was originally posted.

You can't "turn around and turbo someone" if there was never any agreement and barely any discussion.

I'd say it's lived in the few hours before deadline and died in the 20 hours before that.

Ehh looks like Scruffy just needs a hammer now. Not that it will matter in 40 minutes, but I don't really wanna kill the conversation when the game tends to be at its more active stage.
