vote: Methos as a pressure vote. I agree with Diamondeye: we don't know much or hearmch from Mister Methos. Regarding the Naibs and their night actions: I think we've left that to them to decide (whilst discussing the possibilities in private), so far. I'm all for Democratization wherever possible, but at this stage of endGame, it may be unwise to change procedure.

Yeah, I tied up the vote between atheotes and split. It was 4 both ways with my vote. I basically followed Renata's case, didn't care about split in the least. If he shows up to avoid the WOG today, like many I will most likely vote for him next.

Sasaki has been writing these one liners the whole game and TheFlax never said anything. Why me? Why this time?
I don't expect Sasaki to explain his prods, but I thought you actually had something to offer. Scienter's post in that round felt a bit scummy, so I was wondering why you felt Methos was scummy. How many times we are going to have through this?

Again he wrote: "Its not because Romanic is dead that he's suddenly infallible.". Now he really looks annoyed by me. He's attacking my credibility, for no reason! Why would he do that? That's a mafia slip right there.
Attacking your credibility? :laugh4: I said that I was very far from infallible one or two round before that. Yeah, I was totally attacking my own credibility there. I mean, unless you are infallible? Basicaly, I was just stating that since you don't necessarily know more than any of us even if you are dead and proven innocent, then I don't see how it is invalid to question what you say.

You've done reasonably well until now not to pick anything I said out of context. So why did you add this bit? Are you that desperate? Split at that time had put me on a list of people who were suspect because they we hadn't posted during a night phase. You patted yourself on the back, saying that him taking that list and accusing people had started a discussion. To which I replied the phrase you used to incriminate me, saying that Split was very inactive in your spreadsheet, implying that him accusing people of being inactive was not very good. I then finished by saying he was more active that round, which was genuinely good, unfortunately he dropped again from sight not long after. Oh yeah, it was night phase during that talk, I was protecting him from what again?

What? I didn't like Seon or The Stranger as a candidate, so I decided to try to nudge back split into action. Maybe if I ever brought up that vote in defense of me being a partner to Split it would be scummy, as it is, it doesn't have a bearing on anything.

No, I don't have Diana as an IM contact. I talk mostly with Renata and ATP about this game.
In conclusion, I have to say you have a major flaw in your case. (Besides the ones I mentioned earlier in my defense.) You assume Split is mafia and then try to prove that I am by asssociation with him. I agree that Split looks pretty suspicious, but its not a given that he's mafia or not. Until he is proven guilty, many of your accusation seem unfounded to me. (No, no, I'm not attacking your credibility here.)

You give me too much credit, I'm just a boy away for a prom/after-prom weekend with some friends :laugh4:

It would seem just about anyone is a more logical suspect in your mind then. Didn't you read the case against me? Most of it is contigent ou you being mafia. :wink:
Oh good god I can't believe you showed up again, split. Somebody shoot me.
Edit: my general feeling about vig kills -- remove distractions, if necessary, and people who are not leaving a sufficient record with their actions for votes on them to elicit much information. Kage perhaps, though now he's defending himself a lynch may be preferable; certainly split or Methos would be solid options at this point. Double A, if he doesn't follow through on his promise to participate and doesn't get wogged either; Jolt, if he doesn't return to activity.
I think it's still too early, though.

I am amused by the fixation ATPG has on me. Is being amused soomehow offending you Renata? I know this is sooo serious business to begin with,right? I have been playing role, having fun and trying to create fun. It wouldnt have been right for the "press" to try and control the vote, plus can you show some great evidence against anyone during the early rounds? So if i didnt guess vote during the early rounds while playing character is your case, it is not really the strongest one.

Re: Daggers in the Night [In Play]
Because of my defense post, I didn't get a chance to say this earlier: I think Kagemusha's makes him look scummier. I know ATPG and I tend to agree with him on most of his points. At first I almost wanted to change my vote because of his plea, before realising that my emotions were being manipulated here. He has no reason to feel bad and how can a "bandwaggon" (4 votes isn't much of a bandwaggon IMO) be particularly unfair? I thought a lot of them were pretty unfair on early game players, yet that's a necessary evil. Anyways, one point I wanted to address was Kagemusha's claim that he was a crucial townie towards the end of the game, and that this has been proven in the past. Yet, not very long ago, he was bandwagonned in Shadow Fort and claimed loud and hard how it was a bad lynch and how wrong town was. Turns out he was a baddy. Now, I'm not saying it means he's mafia in this game, but most of his defense seems to come either from emotional pleas (unfair, i've been busy working very hard, etc..) and previous game experience (I'm a great endgame townie). It doesn't convince me very much.
Basicaly, this post was meant to just say I was keeping my vote on Kagemusha, but I got a bit carried away.
I hope it makes a bit sense, it did in my head at least. :clown:

Tonight, Saturday May 22nd, is the night of my prom, and the following Sunday through Tuesday I shall be away on a trip with my senior class, a sort of after prom thing.
While I am there I will be unable to access a computer or the internet at all, my phone bill has also not been payed so it will be unlikely that I can use that to stay active.
This is just me letting you guys know that this is happening, and for you to make any adjustments to the status of my character as necessary. If you deem it necessary to replace me, or worse WoG me, feel free to, though I must say I prefer the former.
I am sorry for the inconvenience, and I hope the games continue well without me. :bow:

Andres, ATPG, autolycus and Beefy also received it.

This is still mafia, Kagemusha. You could have kept your votes in separate posts; it's not rocket science. People who don't vote get lynched eventually; it's that simple. It always has been that simple. There's nothing to be amused about when someone calls you on it and asks for your head; it's just the way the game works. If you are a townie, and you get lynched for that behavior, it's your own fault. The rest of us have nothing to go on as regards you. Nothing to convince us you're helping us win. What the heck else are we supposed to do? We have to lynch you at some point, there's no other option.
Sorry if that's not amusing enough for you.
(As an aside, though, "I'm so amused by all of this" as part of a defense runs about 75% mafia, in my experience.)

Well the minor problem with your reasoning is that ATPG is not calling me out for not voting, but because he came up with brilliant idea that i would be a suicidal mafioso that would create a "brilliant " plan to focus the attention to himself completely with the "saharan news" and some of you are bying it, just because it is coming from ATPG. I already witnessed in Shadow fort that ATPG is capable to manilpulate many of you into anything he comes up with. So you become dependant on him whether he is right or not.So excuse me for finding it amusing.

I'm not relying on his reasoning at all. The Saharan News in itself was not suicidal, but neither does it make you innocent.

That's why I felt it necessary to post after you had defended to explain why I was keeping my vote on you, no one told me to do that and most likely I would have voted for you after that if I hadn't previously done so.

What? That's complete BS, Kagemusha, and you know it. I can't even remember if I voted for you in Shadow Fort, but I certainly didn't push your lynch (more fool, me), and I never asked for you to be lynched in RotS either. That is the entirety of our experience together. In this game, I commented early on, in appreciation of your Saharan News efforts, that anyone who voted you before day six would lose at life.

Split should be vigged, not lynched, IMO. His behavior makes any votes for him next to meaningless; that's not true of most other players.

You do remember GH´s mafia?But i apologise i was out of line. Because the grazy hours and shift changes in work. I have become quite grumpy lately and i think my comment was uncalled for.Same goes with the comment about Secura Maybe its just better for me to take my leave from any hectic game activity once this one is over, atleast untill my real life stress eases up a bit.

This one element does not make either scummy, I agree, but it's hardly believable with everything else we've seen. TheFlax is protecting Split again.
