But he voted for me because I had a few votes already and he wants to see me lynched just to see someone lynched. That, in my mind, is suspicious.[/quote] [quote name='The Man Who' post='1605124' date='Dec 1 2008, 16.17']Maybe I'm just imagining that he is being overly defensive and ascribing more to him not liking Erikson due to [snip], but [b]Awesome Possum[/b] sounds slightly too indignant to me. Self-righteousness only befits martyrs.[/quote]Just because the snipped part makes your argument doesn't mean the rest of the post is invalid. He seems to perceive you as being overly defense and indignant. Your disagreement with those thoughts doesn't make them invalid. I wouldn't say they are the strongest pieces of reasoning I've read on day one, I'll even grant you that the post does make me a little suspicious of TMW and I'd like to hear more from him, however it doesn't change that you don't seem like you are being entirely honest in your defense.

What exactly is there for me to be honest or dishonest about? I don't like Erikson, which got me one vote. I have the word "possum" in my name which got me a second. I was flippant about those two votes, which earned me your third vote. TMW then placed a 4th vote for me (technically 3rd since one was removed) because I was being overly defensive - though he couldn't say why, it just sounded good - and I was being indignant and self-righteous because if I'm voted out today, my side still has the most people on it. His main reason for lynching me was that he wanted to see someone lynched and I have the most votes. Now I have another vote on me because mentat loves himself a bandwagon. If I end up being lynched today, so be it, but FFS, someone give me reasoning that isn't borderline imbecilic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masonity Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 [quote name='awesome possum' post='1605172' date='Dec 1 2008, 22.08']I meant it was early for TMW to place a serious vote for me with little to no evidence other than I don't like Erikson, I was being "overly defensive" though he doesn't know why, and he wanted to see someone lynched. My vote for him is intended to put pressure on him to make sense. His words, not mine: See above. He never gave reason to be seriously suspicious of me. But he voted for me because I had a few votes already and he wants to see me lynched just to see someone lynched. That, in my mind, is suspicious.[/quote] My bad. I missed that. I still don't think his case came down to "because I want to lynch someone" though... I got the feeling that was more the icing on the cake rather than the meat of his argument. That said, it is pretty early to worry about making sure someone is lynched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMW does need to explain further his vote and, in all likelihood, the early votes will either be rescinded or supported further later because nobody, innocent or guilty, wants to leave their joke vote on a lynch train. It really doesn't help to be calling any reasoning against you imbecilic either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either he's feeling victimised (a distinct possibility) or he's trying to distract attention away from himself onto TMW.

I can't resist a setup like the one he provided. :P My real feelings about AP are that he's no more suspicious than anybody else at the moment. The most interesting thing that anybody has pointed out is how its strange that he is claiming to be RI, when answering the riddle is an easy avenue to some sort of (likely minor) role. I'm curious, AP - did you answer the riddle? By contrast, I think mentat's vote was relatively serious. Doubt he would have just left a 4th vote on like that, and gone to sleep, if he didn't feel good about his choice. Which is why I want him to explain it, along with his suspicions of Harlot and Lany. Its an interesting group of players he chose to place on his suspect list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mentat's vote is strange, definitely early for a compromise lynch vote with about 15 hours left. I'd think he'd be a bit more careful with his votes after the last game.
