True, we're all doing something stupid. Doesn't mean the DE's can't take advantage of it.

Bloodthirsty? Haven't I backed out of executing both mishie and HoS?

Anyway, I've only come in here to say that my internet privileges have been restricted by my parents, so I'm not going to be able to devote much time to this game. Less than one hour a day, in fact. :facepalm

So I might be talking to Merrill about giving someone my spot.

 

I still cannot believe you guys executed mishie even when Fen said he was clean:facepalm. I know I was suspicious at first but we had no reason to suspect Fen has been lying so continuing after him just says idiocy or Death Eater plot. The only flaw in my suspicions now is that Zeit turned out to actually be a damned wizard, I really thought he was guilty. Azriphale, INBN and KaiDASH are at the top of my list at this point and personally I say we hit Az first and move down the list.

 

This might be my only real post for the day, because in a little bit I'm heading off to an early shift. So might as well get this over with now.

Hm. Zeit was innocent. That's just weird. I swore there was something up with him. Of course, this makes me suspect FP a little bit more then I did. Zeit could have been killed because it would make FP seem a bit more suspicious then he was before. Or, it could just be the DEs trying the same trick they did against mishie. Either one's possible, but I'm leaning towards the first. The DEs would have to know we wouldn't fall for the same trick twice.

My big suspicions at this point are FP, Ayeron, and INBN. FP for reasons I've already stated. Ayeron because he uses number a lot, and chances are when people start busting out math they're trying to distract others.

INBN is a little more trickey. He could actually be very good at this. I mean, what's the first thing you expect an innocent newbie to do when they're voted for? Cast a NO U vote for the person who voted against them. It's possible he's just as new at this as he seems, or he could have known what response his reaction would bring and counted on it.

I'm also a bit suspicious of Hash and Ashaya, for reasons already stated in this thread.

That should do it for me right now. Off to work!

EDIT: Was just looking over the last page of the thread and realized I forgot to address something very important. Yes, I've been accused before. Not HARDCORE-LYNCH U NAO accused, but it's been suggested. By Palindrome and at least one other I think. I'm not combing through 32 pages to find them.

EDIT 2: And no, I'm not voting right now. I'll be checking the thread with my phone over the course of the day. I might not be able to post long posts, but I'll be able to vote that way.

 

Did they give away Idiotballs? You killed mishie after I told you the odds?
I want to believe most of those people were Death Eaters, but the numbers say many people just bandwagoned.

I'm really not sure that it's better to kill someone, just to have lynched that day, if you are less than at least above average suspicious of them.

 

First up, I have a two assumptions to share

1. Hashasheen has been checked by Fen and appeared innocent. This is based on these two posts (one, two). So because of that, I'd advise against starting a lynch mob on Hashasheen.

2. At least one death eater voted for Taure on day 1 in order to blend in better with the innocent town, for the reasoning of 'hey, I voted for Taure when you guys were off killing an INNOCENT'. Infact, I firmly believe that not just one death eater voted for Taure on day 1, but two.

Specifically Aekiel and AtomicWalrus, for the following reasons:

A. Out of the 3 currently living players who voted for Taure, Aekiel and AtomicWalrus both have voted the same way in all lynchings, implying some level of communication & collaboration (aka: They're death eaters).
B. AtomicWalrus actually uses the reasoning I mention in assumption 2 in this post (link) in order to ease pressure on Aekiel.
C. Aekiel has posted things that seem reasonable and pro town, but if you think about them more they really don't say anything at all of importance and are the equivalent of sitting on the fence (aka: The perfect thing for a death eater to do - get the town moving in a meaningless direction). The biggest example is this post - Aekiel accuses Fiat again, and says the super obvious DE strategy regarding taure and even lampshades it, as if to say 'hey, if I was a death eater, why would I even be telling you guys this?'.

Vote Player: Aekiel

 

KaiDASH: I too am suspicious of Atomicwalrus. I have been for a while.

The really annoying thing right now is that I can't name a single suspect. My gut is still saying that I should be on the watch for Scrittore. I'll hold off on to who to vote for right now, simply because I don't feel strongly one way or another.

 

I had a great tl;dr post lined up for you KaiDASH, but then my computer died and I can't be arsed to type it all out again, so I'll just say this.

I vote for who I think is guilty and, except in the case of bandwagons where no other suspect seems to be heading towards the Dementor's toothless maw, I'll continue to vote as such. I honestly hadn't noticed that Fiat and Atomic have voted the same way as me each time, which I have now thanks to looking back over the voting records, and if I'm not playing the leadership role it's because I learned my lesson from the last, disastrous game.

I accuse Fiat because I think he's a Death Eater, and I pointed out that strategy because I think it's a likely bet that the Death Eaters used it. If it looks like lampshade hanging, then every post regarding strategy must be counted as such, since to predict what the Death Eaters will do (and who they are from that) requires getting into the minds of them first. So without further adieu:

Vote Player: Fiat Piscis

 

Don't have alot of time so

Vote Player:Fiat

 

I've already told Merrill to replace me for the game. Since I doubt he's going to get here before this Day is over and give a new replacement a few hours to make a vote, consider this my final vote.

Vote Player: Ashaya

If he decides to give someone else my spot immediately, I have no doubt that my vote will be considered null and void.

It's been a tense and stressful game thus far, but fun in it's own way. Thanks, guys.

 

Zeit, I know you're keeping up with this thread so you're eventually going to read this post. All I have to say is: I told you so. Did I call this or what? I totally called this. I kind of wish my ipad would let me save IRC logs so I could prove how well I called this.

My prediction for the DEs is as follows:
Vesvius
Aziraphale
Aekiel
...

No, you knew that we'd like to think we wouldn't. We already have.

No, it just requires basic sense and the ability to view the previous thread, in which Anarchy spells out everything with perfect clarity.

No shit you don't. You lurk constantly, almost never post and when you do post it's invariably like two lines.

Lynch me if you want, but it'd be a pretty good sign that the town's going to lose.
Vote Player: Aziraphale

 

Six votes for five different people. Impressive. Maybe I will have to get into the voting this time around. I've mostly been letting the villagers handle lynchings, outside of things like attempting to preserve mishie(I tried at least, and Zeitgeist an innocent Wizard pushed for it, and accused me of being false)

Three and a half hours left until the end of the Day Phase. My suspicions hold about as much weight, when not backed by an investigation, as anybody's. That said, I will admit that I may have been hoodwinked by others' actions, but at least two of the three that Fiat listed are somewhat higher on my list than some others.

 

Since it seems unlikely that we'll manage to get a lynch in today, I'd just like to say that if I get night killed I'd really like it if Aekiel and/or AtomicWalrus were lynched the next day.

I halfway think Hashasheen is DE now as well, because there's no way that a lynch on Ashaya could be one that'd actually be successful at this point (whether or not she's a death eater remains to be seen, and I'm not commenting on that), so it's basically a wasted vote, unlike one on Fiat or Aekiel (which have a small chance of actually being successful).

So Fiat and Aekiel are really the only people who could be lynched at this point, so I implore you guys to vote 1 Aekiel, for the supreme betterment of all of Hogsmeade.

 

*shrugs* I'm leaving the game due to IRL, and my last vote doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. But when you all start getting killed off, remember that it's only in what's starting to seem like the end game that Ashaya even popped up. I've held my suspicions of her for two days, and when this is all said and done, I'll be proven right.

 

Aziraphale is the most suspicious to me right now because a few pages back when Zeit suggested killing Mishie anyway despite the auror reveal, Aziraphale supported it quickly. It seemed like a terrible idea to me then, and I couldn't particularly see the logic behind it. It looked like he was seizing the opportunity. Also, he seems to react quite badly to being accused, which makes me wonder if there isn't something actually behind it.

Following that Fiat and Hashasheen are the next most suspicious. Fiat is either being set up by the DEs or trying to make us think that to seem less guilty. Hash and he are both seem mostveager to get people lynched. But most of Hash's posts seem rather off - I'd put him above Fiat in liklihood of being a death eater.

Vote Player: Aziraphale

 

She could well be a DE, but what I'm saying is she isn't getting lynched today, DE or no. So a vote on her is very much wasted, and voting for her just so you can say 'i told you so' in a few days time seems to be very self-defeating to me.

Oh, and by the by, Fen I think that you should definitely be putting some pressure on people even if you haven't checked them. How can DE's make mistakes if the best accusations we've got are 'hey I think billy is totally a DE, lets lynch him' followed by a lynch mob. A little well applied pressure from you would make a DE slip up imo.

 

We've been played on the whole Vira/jwlk/mishie thing. Who was in the last game that pulled that same tactic? Ashaya. Fiat's gotten me suspicious, but I think Fenraellis already investigated him once and called him innocent, so he's either the Dark Lord or innocent.

Since I'm leaving, here's my suspect list for you guys to look at:

Fiat Pisces: Dark Lord potential
Ashaya: Sorceress
Aziraphale: Death Eater
Ayreon: Death Eater

 

Come on, man, they've already done this once. It was fucking yesterday. If you don't believe it, go ahead and lynch me, but it'd be a really stupid mistake.

 

I'd disagree about Aekiel being one of the people who'd stand a chance at being lynched so far. It's only recently that he's come up, and he hasn't really come up much. I think Hashasheen is a far better candidate, both for attention he's recieved being likely to get him lynched, and the tone of his posts.

I'd agree that Fiat is still looking very suspicious - and that Aziraphale probably isn't most likely to get lynched, although I still think he's worth looking into.

 

Despite the idiocy of the move after Fen declared mishie innocent Azriphale totally supported lynching mishie anyways, that makes him fourteen kinds of suspicious in my mind. The way I see it no matter what happens we win if he gets lynched.

Vote Player: Azriphale

 

It doesn't take much to push a lynching target over the edge, at least in this game. So a target that is kinda giving a scum-ish impression, plus a well reasoned argument from yours truely, combined with a few people voting for them would make for a swift lynching.

Double posting, because I want to say this before anyone else posts - I'm not getting a scum impression from Aziraphale at all, he just seems like a new-ish player who's a little bit of a zealot.
