The Scourge of Ephesus [Concluded]

[Seamus Fermanagh]

Just exchanging one "leader of the free world" for another. Nought to bother about.


Boudica: Good points were posted as to the timing of things, and I liked the tone of your personal reply. I had no idea that my one vote could come THAT close to killing you. 2 vote lynches this far into a game are not common. For now, you have damped my suspicions.

EDIT

Time for some 'splainin' from:

Chaotix27

10 posts so far, for 0.588 per page. All comments tend to be brief.

Voting pattern is thin but has participated in BOTH 2-vote lynches. Voted for Diablo Day1, missed Day2 and Day 3, voted Beefy on Day4, but then changed to Jolt who had largely been discarded as a suspect because of outright absence, abstained on Day 5, started with Ibn-K on day 6 but changed to caius?!? (a silly lurker vote this far in?) and slammed sereikhaan late in the voting when things had ebbed away from GH. This aced 'khaan.

That's quite a few lynchings for 10 posts in a thread....

Also interesting that you said

Well, dammit. I must apologize for missing not one, but two day phases and lynchings. I've been really busy with school lately, and just keeping up with the insane amount of posts

{my bolding}

Only missed the days, did we?

Strangely, you'd found time to make 5 posts over the course of 30 minutes or so the preceding day, roughly 24 hours before your "dammit" reference and more than 18 prior to the voting deadline. Didn't need to check out Ephesus that DAY?


Side Note: Yoyoma bandwagoned Jolt pretty quickly in lock step with Chaotix on Day4; Haven't dug into that yet...

I voted Jolt the previous day as well.

I voted him again because he maintained that he couldn't be mafia, since he wasn't online during the weekends.

Well, after those huge analysis posts I am probably not in danger of being lynched this round, but nonetheless I am now seen as scummy by at least one person, so I'll have to provide a defense for myself.

Alright. The main reason why I am so irregular with voting rounds is because... well, I have an irregular schedule. I am still in high school, and so generally I don't get home till 4 every weekday, and sometimes not until 7 if I have one of my various after-school practices. Add on to that homework, studying for tests, and reports, and I don't have a whole lot of free time. I may have a lot of homework one day, and the next I may not. There's really no predicting it. That free time that I do have is not always spent here, either- I do have a life and other things to do.

In fact, I could use today as an example. I got home roughly an hour and a half ago (7:00 my time) and have 2 essays due tomorrow, one of which I haven't started yet. So I find myself conflicted as to how much longer I should actually spend writing this lengthy defense post.

As for votes:

Day 1- Nothing wrong with that vote, I suppose?
Day 2 I missed outright due to homework.
Day 3- You are right, I was online earlier this day, and got sidetracked (I honestly can't remember exactly what now that it's been about a week). I planned on returning later to vote, and you'll notice I did, but had missed the deadline by about an hour or two (I think.) That's why I had cause for the "dammit".
Day 4- I voted for Jolt, as I believe I said, because he had contradicted himself, and made it seem it was obvious he was innocent because he had not been there, something I found scummy. Additionally, it was pure chance he was lynched.
Day 5- I did not have time to read through the thread and vote intelligently, but I did not want to WoG'ed for missing another round. Hence the abstain.
Day 6 was hectic. I had a lot of time, as it was the weekend, and so I changed my vote multiple times as new suspects appeared to me. My vote on I-K was because of his behavior, which was universally suspicious looking, if perhaps "noobish". Voting Caius was just humoring GH because I thought he had some sort of plan. I intended to, and did change it later, when he did not respond. My vote on seireikhaan- the way I saw it, either GH or khaan was going to be lynched that day. GH had a much better track record than khaan, and khaan looked fairly suspicious with his huge accusation post out of nowhere- I decided it would be best if GH remained alive, and so I voted khaan to ensure his survival. Who would you have picked between the two?

As for my using the phrase "Day Phase" and not "Night Phase": Are you just looking for more little reasons to lynch me? Generally speaking, a townie cannot "miss" a night phase because there is nothing for him to miss. I said "Day Phase" because that's when I should have been active to vote.

And finally, as for the surprise attack on Seamus: Killing you wouldn't have shut you up. In fact, it probably would have made you more against me. Thus, if I even were a mafia, killing you would still have not been in my favor. Surely you realize this?

Phew. Is that enough 'splaining for ya? I'll be off to go do my essays, and I may be on later to vote. Until then, Vote: Abstain
