Maybe brian hit his head falling off of that one-legged chair I gave him, and that's why he's MIA?

ZillaThrilla, a medpac for your thoughts?

I need to read through again, its not easy learning everyone's names and keeping them straight and assimilating what they've said. Kinda lost at the moment.

Dadd @ 31/3/2016 16:43 vladykins @ 31/3/2016 10:08 Dadd @ 31/3/2016 9:59 I would think any player that was in the ATTWS game, would know that Primate would shoot if given a gun, and not discuss it. It makes me think scum gave it to him ... or an idiot of a townie. Do you think it was a rigged gun again like ATTWS? No. Just that if I was Mafia and wanted to give a kill to a player that wouldn't discuss it with town and would just fire away ... Primate would be the player. I just brought up the previous game, because it was brought up, and his explanation is pretty much what he just said. Scum would just give it to scum yes?

Jayadamo @ 31/3/2016 9:23

Primate @ 31/3/2016 16:01 I have to wonder which of the folks crucifying me for not "discussing" my action would have been the ones to call me scum if I had? I also expect those people demand that the vig claim immediately so they can add their input to his/her night kill as that is basically what they demand of me. You could have easily said: I have a gun, I plan to shoot Buffy, Buffy claim and prepare to die. The way you did it shows you didn't care what her role was and that if she possibly had info you didn't want it out.

How diplomatically said. But you know that ain't the way us GHBers roll. Seems like you are trying hard to play devils advocate here.

Just got caught up. While I don't have a problem with Primate not asking for input on who to shoot, I think he could have held off for a little while to see if anything else stood out to him (not a lot usually happens in 10 minutes unless it's near the end of the day sometimes). I agree that the people who either ask for input or just shoot an inactive look more scummy since they are trying to make sure they have an excuse if they shoot a townie.

No problem with Lamps trying a reaction test, unfortunately I don't think that we gained much from it.

As much as I hate to do this because of his avi (I really wish you'd change yours back sooner Angi), Sab just rubs me the wrong way.

I do think it is easier for scum to push a primate lynch based on how things went down.

Redster @ 31/3/2016 20:25

Lamps @ 31/3/2016 8:34 Primate, you could have gone with an ACTUAL lead? Or waited for one at the least? I'm curious what ACTUAL leads you think we have, or had, up to that point.

None, that's why i said waited for one, though he could have tried to find out if my post was for real.

So in other words you're "reluctantly" advocating another random kill, based on an avi and the way he rubs you?

Or is there more there i'm not seeing?

This post stood out to me a bit after posting the reaction test (could be because it was one of the very few posts questioning it).

Wikey @ 31/3/2016 12:08

So, something happened yesterday and Zero looks bad cuz of it, and now Lamps says Curtis is scum and lynches him, but he might not be scum and Lamps might just be lying because you know, he does that sometimes and curtis being scum is the longest running joke. Vernon has showed up and said nothing, then posted a question mark, and zero says he is innocent, boc is posting about stuff, etc.

The choice of the word "lying" struck me as odd as it was either based on something, a joke post, or a reaction test, none of which would really classify as a "lie" since Curtis may actually be scum.

Jayadamo @ 31/3/2016 12:26

thisisbad @ 31/3/2016 16:25 Had he done that, half the people would have argued should he shoot, she woulda said vt which wouldn't have stopped him, and in the end same result Not condoning shooting a town people, but sometimes this game is about taking chances. If he was right, everyone would be praising him now They could argue about that all they want. Primate should have shot who he wanted to I just think he could have been a bit smarter about it.

i get not asking who to shoot, but did we learn nothing from last game? say who you intend to shoot before you shoot them. what if this gun also only could kill town? and it backfired on you? we would have again been left not knowing who the scum you tried to kill was.

I'm still looking at the four that piled onto Zero towards the end of the day.

rose sticks out to me... we had these two posts this morning.

-dr @ 30/3/2016 22:27

I think Zero gained momentum because of the Z thing

Is she not sure why she voted for zero?

-dr @ 31/3/2016 7:26

Ari @ 31/3/2016 2:24 Herm, DR and Brian What was the point of lynching Zero so late? King Z showed up and it was time for a new Z lynch

Vlady is the really the only player that mentioned going down the "Z List" of inactives. Vlady, Bryce and Jamie all unlynched and moved to Zero within 20 min of Zilla posting. Roughly 3 1/2 hours before the deadline.

One hour before the deadline, with the votes 8-3 in favor of FC over Zero, dr pops in and votes for Zero, only a few posts after a current lynch count had been posted.

It makes little sense to "just move to the next Z", or to vote for someone other than FC, considering the reason was voting an inactive. Neither players had a single post on D1.

I'm going to ##lynch dr

But the above argument could easily be made for brian as well. Or Herm.

I mentioned that he should have said who in a prior post

Do you lie sometimes?

I am prepping to head home to avoid some of the nuclear summit traffic action outside my office. I'll try to pop on later but as of now, just in case I don't make it back, my regression analysis on post reaction leads me to

"Daykill Buffy" was posted right in the thread, so you're gonna have to find another reason because that one doesn't wash.

I didn't just pop in and vote Zero. I voted King Z earlier, then he showed up, so I moved on to the next Z person. I thought the Z list was funny. I was saying it gained momentum because other people were going with it too.

Dadd @ 31/3/2016 16:24

The point was lynching an inactive, and Zero was inactive, how does it "make little sense?" Why was Free Candy THE ONLY OPTION?

In the last game, the kill I had was anonymous. It was also a use it or die scenario. Had I killed a townie, nobody but mafia would have known I was the one who had the gun unless I decided to tell them.

This game is a completely different situation, and I think anyone trying to compare the 2 situations as if they are related is suspect of intentionally creating confusion.
