Open 65 - Mini Love (Over!) before 578

[eldarad]

I like Jex. A lot.

OK. So...does that change anything? Do you feel lucky?

More scared than lucky. I don't like having followers.

And sorry silence, I'll change my wording...let's all sit in quiet and stare. Anyways, I'm tired of sitting and staring so

vote albert

[Albert B. Rampage]

OMGUS!

[Jex]

OMGUS!

what's your point?

[Albert B. Rampage]

I vote you, you vote me...I look at you, you stare back...who will blink first ?

[Sethaniel]

ABR, do you have a reason for liking Jex? If you can give me a good one, I'll vote for her.

[Albert B. Rampage]

I simply like Jex because she and I agree on quicklynches.

[Sethaniel]

Ah, wait. So you like her personally, not like her as a candidate for lynch.

Or, you believe people who think like you do should be lynched.

Which is it, ABR? do you want me to vote for Jex?

[Albert B. Rampage]

What I want is for you to change those hippie glasses.

[Sethaniel]

You're just jealous they look so much better on me.

[Korts]

Idiots. The cool guys all wear gasmasks.

[Qman]

Pez nez baby. Pez nez

[Jex]

Ah, wait. So you like her personally, not like her as a candidate for lynch.

Or, you believe people who think like you do should be lynched.

Which is it, ABR? do you want me to vote for Jex?

unvote vote sethaniel

I don't like the fact that you are looking for answers instead of creating your theories and ideas. You get a double vote from due to the fact that you're asking ABR for answers of all people.

[Sethaniel]

OMGUS Jex. I'm just talking.

[Jex]

So I was bored and reread the game thus far. Not a lot stood out to me, but there are a couple things that don't necessarily sit right with me. So here goes:


Item #1:

vote farside

quicklynches baby! duh!

vote farside

quicklynches baby! duh!

Quick lynches are no good without conversation.

FOS Qman

. You should know better.

Of course I do. I like how you single me out for my quicklynch comment and not others.

>_<

Of course I do. I like how you single me out for my quicklynch comment and not others.

>_<

Were you joking? I asked Albert, but FOS'ed you because you voted for me for not BW. How is your comment to be taken?

It's a joke. heck it was my first post in the game!

This conversation stuck out to me for some reason. At first when I read it, I saw Qman as being overdefensive to a simple joke. Farside's quote where he FOS qman sounds like farside is joking yet Qman comes back taking it seriously. This could be taken as overdefensiveness. Also, qman uses many emotes which makes me think that he may be trying to turn his defensiveness into jokes.

However, the overdefensive theory turns tables when farside comes back with a serious statement. His second quote solidifies his FOS as a serious FOS and not a joke. This leads to the question why single out qman but let all the other statements about quicklynching go on as a joke? Why was qman taken so seriously in the long string of jokes that is this thread?

Item #2:

ABR, do you have a reason for liking Jex? If you can give me a good one, I'll vote for her.

Ah, wait. So you like her personally, not like her as a candidate for lynch.

Or, you believe people who think like you do should be lynched.

Which is it, ABR? do you want me to vote for Jex?

These two quotes are what I assume are Sethaniel's way of breaking the line of jokes and turning this into a real game. Personally, I find anyone that asks for voting advice suspicious in any game whether its the beginning, middle, end, whatever. It always perks up my scumdar. I would also like to know why sethaniel singled out and questioned about one person, but not others that had been thrown on the block. What are the thoughts behind your madness sethaniel? hmmm?

Alright...it's 6am and I haven't slept so these are my crazy late night thoughts as I read through the game. They may mean nothing, but they are the only things that stuck out to me at this point.

Also...

unvote vote farside

[Albert B. Rampage]

[Sethaniel]

Fine, scorn my affection. See if I care.

Oh, I guess I do care. . .

With 12 alive, it is 7 to lynch

Activity levels are OK, but more would be better. I'm probably going to prod the absentees soon.

[eldarad]

Sorry, I was playing Marathon Day games. Back now

Incidentally, my question to ABR ("do you feel lucky?") was kinda serious, but I don't want an answer anymore.

unvote
vote Seth

for asking ABR where to place your vote. It's trying to absolve yourself of responsibility for your actions.

[Korts]

Sorry guys, I've had to ask for replacement. Family matters.

[babygirl86]

I'm here, but haven't seen much to comment on.... no real game discussion has been happening yet this game. I'll try to get a reread in later today. however, my vote still stands because I hate quicklynches

[farside22]

@Jex:

I did state that about questioning Albert in regards to his BW vote. I voted for Q-man because I did not see his comment as a joke when I'm trying to promote discussion. I felt his vote against me was a reach at nothing and voted for him because his comment made no sense. How do you know if he was joking? I was trying to promote discussion instead of the random BW comments going on and he just off shoots at the hip for a first comment and vote I found it odd coming from him.

So, it's okay for you to ask questions regarding voting, but not for me? We're both going the same place with those questions.

In general: I wasn't necessarily going to just vote whatever ABR said. I wanted to see what his response would be. Did he have any particular reason to vote for anyone, or was he just trying to bait someone into arguing with him, so he could push for a lynch? His response turned out to be voting for me, without giving any reason at all.

[Albert B. Rampage]

Ah, wait. So you like her personally, not like her as a candidate for lynch.

These posts are scummy. That's why I'm voting you.

No, questions are fine.
Giving your vote to someone else is not fine.

In general: I wasn't necessarily going to just vote whatever ABR said. I wanted to see what his response would be.

What where you expecting him to say? "I'm the cop" maybe?
At least that would have given us an easy lynch today, huh?
