Wow, quite a swing there. Looks like I'm going to have to self preserve.

VOTE BARKEEP

Is that the right self-preservation vote? I've been catching up and need to review the vote.

Just trying to figure out the sequence of events. I've got the idea in my head that we just might have been on the verge of a good day one vote. Maybe I'm overthinking it, but would like to hear what others think (preferably quickly).
This is actually an excellent point. In a game of 19 I would figure at least 5 titans (good and bad), 2 monsters, 2 humans. That leaves 10 players for 19 remaining players. Plenty of space for Titans to hide especially if they know which Olympians are in the game.

Very valid questioning, my opinion is he had something he had to go do and assumed he was the main lynch candidate, so he revealed hoping that would be enough to save him at least for a day.

I can't say I find fault there. At least not enough to not give him a days grace to defend himself.

Render, I don't think Anxiety is in the line of fire here. And a look back at his post indicates that he was stepping away. To engage in the war-like activity of "shopping". Won't go there, so time to decide between Path and BK.

I don;t think you're a titan riht now, I'm not certain of path12, but he's on a list of those that have nothing going for them atm either. I trust BK for now, anxiety has reveaqled as Aries.

Where else should we look Lathum? Take a stand, pick someone to go after and give us a good reason why they're any BETTER of a choice than path or racer or raiders or any of the non-main people.

Work WITH us man, even if you don't vote with us, at least try to help.


think what you like.

I think I gave a legitimate reason for my day 1 vote.

Your reasoning is absurd and you really have a poor grasp of day 1, but I will chalk it up to your inexpierience.

If we "work together" the wolves will just fall in line with us and we will learn nothing. On the off chance we actualy nail a wolf the first day the other wolves would just fall in line. A runaway vote day 1 is the worst possible thing for the village.


Honestly, do you really think a wolf would offer any day 1 resistance if another wolf is on the block? Remember last game when ?Path? vouched for ?Anxiety? day one. All it did was draw suspicoun.

If you believe what you're saying about Anxiety vote for him. He's pretty close, still, in votes to path and I. Actually I think he has more people voting for him than path.

So what other than Lathum's opinion of BK's 5 point commentary early today does anyone have on barkeep?

I'm VERY not convinced that he's a titan. his play today really hasn't seemed that way at all. Even the points about the 5 point vote AND pushing for mass reveals have been reversed by him.

I'm really worried you're all lynching a good Olympian here.

Barkeep, the votes are getting to you. If I am right in my line of thinking, you're not really overly concerned about being lynched... am I correct?

I'm of the opinion that Neon is in bandwagon mode, just like he was on Day 1 when he was the Cultist recently. If there was a shot to get him over these two candidates that is where I would go.

There is an alternate candidate, and the reasoning, for whoever it was that asked earlier.

Nah, hoops. I'm in "If I'm using only 1 action point on my vote, I might as well make my vote count" mode.

There is no such thing as UTR on day 1. It always turns into pointless quibbling and lately getting our seers killed.

Well if you want to get defensive about it I'l let it drop for now. I'm almost positive you're wrong about BK. You're being realy stubborn about this(nothing new there) but whatever. We'l have to agre to disagree.

And if you hadn't noticed there is NO runaway vote going on, I'm simply working as best I can to try and turn lynchpin votes to save someone I feel is a good Olympian.

Absurd indeed. Self ritious .......bleh.

and thats my point, not being deffensive and sorry if I came off that way.

It seems to me you were trying to round up a posse to lynch Path. The close vote today will give us far more information then a runaway on path, wheather BK is good or bad.

You, on the otherhand are positive I am bad and BK is good, how can you be so sure?

I should have put the vote on one of the two leaders - hoped that there might be some traction on the alternate candidate but not enough time I guess.

I don't know what was the right choice, but I'm dumb for not making the vote count either way.

Funny though, BK didn't do any reveal-like stance to try and sway votes. I don't think he's an Olympian... human, maybe?

I am absolutely NOT positive you are bad, in fact from reading your posts today i'm pretty certain you're good, which is another reason for hounding after your vote.

With time ticking down and a close vote at hand, hoops, that was a very uncharacteristic vote on your part.

I would have switched but there didn't seem time. Which is why I didn't reply to your comment about information also.

Based on results - didn't see people follow my vote - I'm agreeing with you.

Based on premise - being nervous about voting patterns that I didn't understand but found unnerving - I think it was pretty consistent with my thought patterns in previous games. I try to understand momentum, just don't always have the courage to act on my conclusions. My conclusion here was that we had villager vs villager.

Either way, I'll take whatever heat people feel like assigning me for my vote today, assuming I'm around after Alan's write-up.
