Open 218: Two-fold C9 - Game Over

[Tazaro]

It looks like my replacement of ConfidAnon is the reason this game is being restarted. I need to collect my thoughts. But I am a VERY active poster.

[Tazaro]

I don't blame you, XScorpion--but my multiposting, I can reduce it in all four games I have my finger in. Four can keep my post activity more spread out!

[Tazaro]

He is replacing Dr. Chaos.

[Tazaro]

Oops: MR. Chaos. He wasn't no doctor. Now, we have one.

[Tazaro]

Is this the time to say I have somewhat disturbing gut feelings about Karma?

[Tazaro]

I, Tazaro/Toon Fighter/ConfidAnon, hereby change my name to Taz.
Now, I'm tired right now. But, boy, it's going to be a good day two. I can feel it.

[Tazaro]

Normal gameplay resumes at some point in time after the beep. BEEP

[Tazaro]

vote: Equinox

No offense, but you replaced my top scum read.

Was this gut encouraged by saying I had a disturbing gut feeling toward Karma?

[Tazaro]

EBWOP: I meant: Was this VOTE encouraged by saying I had a disturbing gut feelign toward Karma?

[Tazaro]

Eh, I'm encouraged by my gut, too

VOTE: Equinox

[Tazaro]

I don't want to stress, Equinox, though.

UNVOTE

[Tazaro]

^ no comma should be before stress and Equinox.

[Tazaro]

^ "before" should be "between." Damn, I'm a ditz.

[Tazaro]

Eh, I was wrong about people's "suspicious" gameplay before. The way some of these players address stuff has made me shift opinions completely. Thus, I'll wait for info before voting

[Tazaro]

It was chivalry, scorp.

[Tazaro]

You noted that I'm suspcious? I'm town in at least one of these games with you, scorp! I maintain I'm town in both.

edit^ you noted that I'm suspicious (spell suspicious right, Taz and don't rush!) ... because of that? Because of chivalry

[Tazaro]

Am I still suspicious because I was chivalrous?

[Tazaro]

It's not about being pro-town. It's about giving Equinox some slack after the actions of Karma. It's sportsmanship and being nice. And sorry, Equinox, I thought the stuff I said was vague enough not to be discussion of ongoing content.

[Tazaro]

Not posting until a new person posts, ghost town is not what day two's all about.

[Tazaro]

@People who aren't replacements: do you agree with Taz that I should cut equinox slack, despite my previous suspicions of Karma?

Now, wait a minute. This is just... no. I'm not telling YOU to cut Equinox slack; I was only speaking about my self. Do what you want. And I need to reread stuff and read stuff that is to come before any vote can come from me.

[Tazaro]

Did you read the whole thread? Do you have any views besides Karma being suspicious? Content would be nice.
That goes for all replacements.
@People who aren't replacements: do you agree with Taz that I should cut equinox slack, despite my previous suspicions of Karma? Are you going to vote for the same people you are voting for, even if they were replaced? Opinions, please.

Well I've quite forgotten who I suspected (If I even did, I recall being pretty disengaged), so some leniency from me.

Does this mean you're going to be indecisive like me? Boy, I hope more of the old people create analyzable drama soon.

[Tazaro]

That didn't stop you from hastily voting for Karma, then unvoting.

I still have that gut feeling about Karma. I could easily reinstate that vote. I just find myself jumping into things in my games. This time, I want to be more reserved.

[Tazaro]

unvoting WAS to be more reserved.

[Tazaro]

unvoting WAS to be more reserved.

The question, then, would be, "Why?"

I could be wrong. And I have been wrong when I jumped in so quickly by following my gut in previous games. I want to not make the same mistake with this game.

[Tazaro]

I'll hear out anyone at this point. I feel too sad to vote for anyone right now...

[Tazaro]

^I made one person on this forum angry. That's why I feel down. I hope he warms up to feeling better. I'll post more tomorrow.

[Tazaro]

VOTE: drmyshotty

He looks like he wanted an excuse to vote Beefster. And he used the term L-3, which is reminiscent of L-2 and L-1, to falsely magnify the idea that "something's up" with Confidanon's vote for InHim, eveh though that vote was justified for the same reason that other's suspected InHim.

[Tazaro]

^ "He" is Mr. Chaos. who is now drmyshotty.

[Tazaro]

The gut feeling was the only one I hid. Then I read the highlights of Mr. Chaos that hind's post included, and these appealed to my reason; I will discard gut feeling for reason so drmyshotty is my new vote.

[Tazaro]

edit: hid should be had.

[Tazaro]

t;dr -
Chaos is obvious scum if you ask me.

You know, this subtly made me kind of uneasy, Equinox, when I read it. This is like the kind of thing someone says when they are trying to play you. I do see the points about Mr. Chaos, though. And I have done reading before of what people said about Chaos's statements. I'm now seeing how Scotty voted for drmyshotty in a short post before scampering off, then hind did so. Are we being tag teamed to vote for drmyshotty by hind and scotty? It's a possibility but I see validity to the questionability of Mr. Chaos's interesting posts.

[Tazaro]

Well, those people referred to the words of Mr. Chaos. And I've read Mr. Chaos's posts of course, but he doesn't explain himself really. And I wouldn't be surprised if one of Hinduragi or Scott is scum. Who's using whom would be the question then. Am I being cross examined?

[Tazaro]

I'll risk them using me and my vote. Bussing the rightfully suspicious drmyshotty is a real tactic to expect.

[Tazaro]

Hinduragi replaced easjo. Easjo's a real suspect, and Mr. Chaos might as well be targetted by scum so that they don't have to do much targetting of any one else. I don't fear cross examination; I wonder if I'm just a person who sticks out as a person who would be good to cross examine, or if you are a person who cross examines people.

[Tazaro]

I'd like to see what Chronopie and ODDin think of Mr. Chaos/drmyshotty; Chaos's posts should get the attention of nonvoters, and make this not be a ghost town, guys.

[Tazaro]

So there are two wagons: the drmyshotty party and the Equinox party. Which person is going to be a better lynch? Does one of the parties have to hold our noses and just switch to the other wagon? I'd like inter-party discussion.

[Tazaro]

i.e, come back Xscorpion and Sandman.

[Tazaro]

Just because scum is bussing other scum (because they feel that the "other scum" are necessary liabilities to target) doesn't mean that we shouldn't vote for the scum that is being bussed. I didn't talk about easjo when I was discussing the individual who was giving me a disturbing gut feeling (Karma) and the individual who was giving me intellectual suspicion (Mr. Chaos), easjo is more of a second rate suspect. But since Hinduragi replaced easjo and Hinduragi just made a case against Mr. Chaos, I think that easjo/Hinduragi being a suspect who is bussing Mr. Chaos is a real thing to ponder.

[Tazaro]

Ninja'd by Sandman. In short, my opinion is that there are ideas to explore regarding the notion of Hinduragi/easjo and Mr. Chaos's having distancing taking place between them. But Mr. Chaos's scummy butt should be lynched on its own merits regardless of whether bussing is in play.

[Tazaro]

easjo's gameplay strikes me as newbscum and Hinduragi immediately went against Mr. Chaos and then left. I don't know see a better example of opportunism.

I look forward to seeing shotty's views when they eventually come

Those views would be a good discussion piece in my mind. He want to be loved? Well, he can be the center of attention at least.

[Tazaro]

^ I don't know seeing a better example of opportunism. Edit a day keeps me humble.

[Tazaro]

Edit a day... "know" should be "remember."

[Tazaro]

Point of fact: Hinduragi left; I'm still here... for cross examination, apparently, if Equinox's not finished. I suppose you're more suspicious of Karma/Equinox than Mr. Chaos/drmyshotty, Scorpion? Would you consider holding your nose and join the anti-drmyshotty party?

[Tazaro]

He just got back right before I posted that..

[Tazaro]

@Tazaro: Do you plan on making a post like Easjoreplacementguy's or are you just gonna keep doing what you're doing?

I hope you don't mean a wall of text. But I really am suspicious of Mr. Chaos's posts. It's just a matter of how your mind processes his posts. And is that easy to put into writing?, I don't see that it is. I see Chaos's posts as insincere.

[Tazaro]

^ I can more easily comment with content when the game's actually flowing. It's not a matter of my strategy; it's a matter of my playstyle

[Tazaro]

...dang it to heck if I have to see RVS = SRS? stuff....

[Tazaro]

I hate to say it, but chivalry IS a double standard: Being extra nice to women.

[Tazaro]

^ And that has nothing to do with one sex being over the other. I just see myself being nicer to females. Other males can be annoying.

@Chronopie: Chronopie!! Contribute soon. What's your flavor? Equinox or drymyshotty?

[Tazaro]

I really wanted to be nice to Equinox. And who else is going to be voted for today if not drmyshotty or Equinox?

[Tazaro]

ODDin, I explained myself regarding easjo on page 19:

I didn't talk about easjo when I was discussing the individual who was giving me a disturbing gut feeling (Karma) and the individual who was giving me intellectual suspicion (Mr. Chaos), easjo is more of a second rate suspect. But since Hinduragi replaced easjo and Hinduragi just made a case against Mr. Chaos, I think that easjo/Hinduragi being a suspect who is bussing Mr. Chaos is a real thing to ponder.

[Tazaro]

claim: doctor

So what is the next step after this, guys? I'm not used to dealing with L-1 claims.

[Tazaro]

Wait, your playstyle is jellybeans? I know that means you're VI regardless of alignment. Why should I believe your doctor claim?

[Tazaro]

I guess this is even more difficult because you're a replacement. So I can't ask you who you protected.

[Tazaro]

Equinox could hammer. heh.

[Tazaro]

The only person who can put you on the noose is Equinox, drmyshotty. It's going to be an interesting decision to leave in her hands.

[Tazaro]

I mean, Xscorpion was against hammering until adequate discussion and Mr. Sandman, well I guess he could change his mind but would he want to hammer?

[Tazaro]

I just figured out why Equinox isn't joining us now. Her sig says expect delays. And what's the likelihood of having a doctor in this set-up?

[Tazaro]

Wait a minute, drmyshotty could be werewolf doctor just as well.

[Tazaro]

You do know there could be multiple doctors?

[Tazaro]

I would be great irony if Equinox was one ^^

[Tazaro]

Please don't hammer until Equinox comes back.

Seconded.

[Tazaro]

Ok don't but you are going to lynch a doctor. Sorry I didn't notice a new PM I didn't look untill you reminded me

Not sure if SRS.

[Tazaro]

You should've said that before I pointed out the mod was on.

I don't buy that at all

.

If he had instead said post #534's content in post #532, could you have bought it?

[Tazaro]

^Do you ever explain yourself, like why you are certain about stuff?

[Tazaro]

Sorry, guys. I've been out yesterday, so I haven't had a chance to finish. Give me a few hours, and I'll be up and running.

...apparently, I'm looking at a doctor claim, L-1, and a hammer. This will be fun.

Reminds me of Newbie 943 in a way with M=W. Ah, memories...
