Seems like that's reading into things quite a bit more than is reasonable. I'm much more highly suspicious of you for trying to through some nonsense suspicion on someone else. Also, I'm not sure here. It makes me curious when someone is energetically after scum right at the get go. Could they be? It's possible. I wonder myself | ||

So..time for the nitty gritty (and tracking down the questions I missed). I admit, this is hard because I prefer to make a basis in anything I state. So I'm analyzing things pretty hard. So..here's me giving up on analyzing and tossing up what I have. I was asked to clarify my suspicions, so here goes. @HTS - You are right that a lot of us are so new we're shiny and dripping with the paint. As for what I think of what the others posted so far, it's a lot of saying the same thing but in different ways. Perhaps a better answer to you question is going to be in the addresses below. (Why read the same thing over and over in the same post? ) If I don't answer it though, please say so, so I can. Also, I currently am thinking you are town. There have been numerous examples, but your mentions of what you think of everyone's roles lead me to believe positively in that direction so far! @Rsoultin To be honest? At the risk of losing cool points here, I entirely forget what I was trying to get at. I can backtrack and guess, but I really don't want to lie about anything. Rules and all. That said, for the analysis portion on you? I'm not entirely sure yet. You haven't convinced me either way. @Jarjar- Sorry you're sick man! That said, the blatant 'I am town', while funny, makes me want to eye you. The ones who are most blatant often seem to me to be the ones to suspect first. Your sarcasm is fantastic, but I agree with HTS. I don't feel like you want to Scum hunt. @Exo_ : Reading all of your accusations makes you sound pretty angry in general at first, but afterwards you are really strong in clarifying your points. However, you voted so quickly and you implicate almost as much so. What bothers me is that while you do this, you flip around quickly from person to person based sometimes on good solid reasoning, and other times based on 'I don't like this post'. What exactly is it that made you suspicious of LS and JarJar? @Warwaffle- Thanks for pointing me at the guide, though I admit, the 'suspicious' intro had me blink a few times. So far though, your analysis has me thinking you as town but I do agree with Celestial. You didn't give us anything of substance. @Trfel I totally agree wih finding a 'how to find scum' guides. That would help put all of us on the right track. Thank you for the analysis on the Mafia XXX thread by the way. I was reading through it. That said....free townie points? @LS My alignment is Lawful Neutral, clearly. (Ahahaha...haha...ha...D&D references....ok, beat me now). To be honest, I'm leaning towards town for you. I agree with Jarjar's assessment that I felt more that you were trying to include everyone, rather than specifying a side. That said, I did not see any 'scum' reads myself. You've been pretty straight forward that I can see. | ||

@Tubeshock Personally? I'm leaning towards Exo and Gumdrop. Exo is as I said above. Quick to vote, quick to accuse. And Gumdrop hasn't really been 'trying' to contribute and it bothers me a little. As for above? Most are null with slight leans one way or another. D1 is definitely a challenge. | ||

@LS My personal personality alignment just isn't Chaotic enough! ExO, I'm still curious on but I'm aware I'm in here too early to get the responses to my questions. I'm not voting you because you've had some great posts so far and I look forward to more. Rereading everything so far (in what I missed and what's been said), Gumdrop did step up to give an explanation of his (or her!) thoughts at this point. I'm still suspicious because of how long it took, but honestly, you're as new as me so I totally get it. (Til next round. >D) As far as my vote, rereading (and being convinced by several other player points), my vote is going to Waffle. I doublechecked the posts to validate what was being said, and it's true that there is a lot of lurking going on with only substance in the beginning given after prodding. ##Vote: TheWarWaffle | ||

That said..here goes... (Before WarWaffle's Lynching ) @HTS In address to the question I saw back on page 17 (because wow I need to catch up! Darn you timezones/work schedules!) Let's see if I can clarify. As far as what went on with Waffle, My thought originally was that waffle was doing a good job with the analysis when he (or she!) jumped in after reading that one Guide. I did change my mind, overall, when I read over what was being said. My secondary use of substance was an incorrect word usage where I wanted to indicate that the first post was where the "meet" of his opinions was there with nothing afterwards. It should also be pointed out that the reason I didn't respond to Rsoultin's question with an answer was honestly that I could not remember a single bit of what I was trying to get at. Completely. Embarassing. As a general address, however, there seems to be some curiosity as to why I flipped my votes around and contradicted myself. The answer really generated from what I said before. Gumdrop had yet to post anything and ExO I wanted to hear from before voting to lynch. @LS as of page 19 you pointed out I was at work and did vote. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for that. @Tubeshock Addressing your post on page 21, the general feeling here can be attributed mainly to my bad work schedule timing and life. At any time if anyone wants to pop a question up for me, I will make sure to address it. --- (after the Lynching) ><! Well, I feel sad now. I will say that this game has been very educational so far. I really wish I could be here while I'm working. =/ ---------- Reads to follow, as requested by Rsoultin! I think I've managed to respond to the questions seeming to be posed to me (with this one being an exception). If I missed something, feel free to point it out and I'll catch up on it. | ||

6 central time is 5pm for me, the exact time I'm getting off (if I am lucky). I have a 20 minute to hour long commute (traffic, weather, so on) and immediately come home to trying to eat dinner, settling my household down and helping with sick people (who so lovingly gave me their cold xD). I have to be at work at 8:30 am, but again with that commute. ( Generally leave at 7:30 my time for work) --- @Ls Glad you're back and she's ok! <3 LS, what makes you so suspicious of Shining? In your mind, who is the biggest candidate to lynch right now and why? I know Shining is on your radar, but what makes Shining more important than say...Gumdrop? | ||

So, I think first and foremost...I owe a recap of what I think everyone is! The Shining: You, my friend, are getting scum votes all over the place! And I'm not entirely sure what to make of you just yet. Part of this is certainly my inexperience, but I felt you defended yourself relatively well here in your second post. The first ones you gave flipped back and forth, but it looks like you're backing your decision this round. I'm neutral, leaning towards towne. HTS: You asked my motivations and thoughts on what's transpired so far. Personally, my first thought is 'Crap, we're getting picked off!". In regards to Waffle, you're right, I sheeped (I believe this means when we're following the votes of others rather than something else, right?). I did this because the cases being made were more reasonable to me at the time. When I was scumming ExO and Gumdrop, I wanted to give them the opportunity to respond before I condemed. I can't say I tunneled, but the sudden silence on Waffle's part made me more suspicious than anything. As for how I feel about you? (Sheesh I wish we didn't keep missing each other! Well, if I survive til the weekend, I have that off? =D) You've been very consistent and straight forward. You are a straight on town read for me. What are your assessments currently? Also, in answer to your last post you popped up...I have never played this game before. I am a complete newbie and this is game number 1. (Soultin had been talking about Mafia games continually and I told her I'd try it out). So if it's hard to read me, believe me when I say I find it difficult to read all of you. I'll keep trying though. =) LS: You are a constant poster, and points to you for that. You do a great job keeping other posters engaged and getting people talking and questioning. I looked through your filter through the beginning. (talk about a read!). Currently, looking through your posts, i'm reading a lot of generalization and little to no specifics on your reads at the moment. I'm growing steadily suspicious of you, particularly with your votes following the 'sheeping trend' (hee...I like that phrase), but I'm seeing little to nothing else. Can you tell me how you're feeling on the people here in, in what way you're leaning and why? JarJar: I'm not sure what EOD means, but yes, that whole crazy paying the bills thing is biting me in the rear at the moment. Now then...let me bump back to replying to your post at me. That being said, I'm not sure if you just called me out on being scum or not. So, I'll respond as though you did and if you didn't? Weelll...bonus information? =D I'm discovering one of the hardest things about defending yourself from that view is activity with posting. To compensate, I do my best to post when I come home and before going to work. THAT said...my vote on Waffle was indeed sheeping with Rsoultin. She wrote a good defense and looking back through the posts (which I was going page by page at the time...gosh I love filters) it made logical sense to me. And for me, that matters. That said, in defense against being scum, while I sheeped a vote, I have not tunneled towards anyone and I've been open and honest about what I thought and why. So let me direct a question or two towards you. You aren't out of the suspicion waters yet with me! =P Following what you said about voting LS, what is your reasoning for it? What ranks him above Tube or Shining? Gumdrop: I have to admit, I'm more than a little concerned about you not posting,my friend. When you show up, share your thoughts! Who's suspicious? Who isn't? Celestial: You're been prolific in your posting, and it's led me to think town for you at first. The throwing away of your vote (as you put it) still puts a redmark on you to watch. I think my biggest fret is the free town passes early, straight to the vote...and then I'm not seeing much here about trying to contribute for the town and it feels floaty about-ish. Is Rsoultin your biggest target right now? Why? Tubeshock: I'm just neutral on you. You put thought into short bits of words. I'd be really interested in knowing what you think of everyone at this point too. Are JarJar and Shining still your top picks? | ||
