Star Wars Quote Mafia- Game over

[elvis_knits]

vote: PBuG

for being last to confirm

May the force be with...some of you.

[elvis_knits]

vote: elvis_knits cause elvis don't knit foo.

Dranko20: How can you be sure?

Also, why does Ibaesha get two votes today? Does her "additional access" have something to do with her role power, or is it just a function of this screwed up system, might happen to anybody regardless of role?

[elvis_knits]

Elvis don't knit cause he's DEAD.

Again...how do you know that?

Glad I am already voting you PBuG

[elvis_knits]

Screw it. I have to leave soon, and Thok's claim looks like this to me.

Oregano = Pizza = Mafia

Unvote

Finishing Vote Thok

THAT'S ONLY TEN VOTES!!!!

A big

HA

on armlx. Nice try.

Now can some people unvote Thok?

[elvis_knits]

I just googled "oregano star wars" and came up with 138,000 hits. Mostly recipes for pork loin. I'm really excited to see what Thok's "surprise" response from somebody is. It better be good.

[elvis_knits]

I REALLY don't think we should lynch Thok now, but I do wonder why he used "oregano" as his cue word, and why he is "the oregano blizzard."

Thok -- Why did you pick something that was so involved in pizza-making and mafia-like things?

[elvis_knits]

(/aisde to self it's interesting that RangeroftheNorth votes me instead of armlx, when armlx was obviously a million billion more scummy in his last post of trying to kill of thok before any real claiming. If armlx is scum its likely that Ranger is too. /endaside)

You know what's also shady about RotN? He originally voted armlx, but unvoted as soon as armlx had two votes. Then he jumped on the Thok bandwagon.

armlx may be scummier right now, but I don't want him to get ten votes in five minutes like happened with Thok. I'll just call out RotN too.

unvote; vote: RangeroftheNorth

[elvis_knits]

I don't like how BabyJesus only jumps on bandwagons and doesn't say anything. I guess that's why he's "not helpful."

[elvis_knits]

thx

[elvis_knits]

elvis, you know there is an owl that says thx. you should have used it.

[elvis_knits]

I was lynching Thok under the concept he had admitted he was mafia. I figured he was making a bad play and then tried to simply buy time for something stupid.

You could have waited to see if he was indeed going to come up with "something stupid." I think if someone is claiming, you should at least give them time to claim so you can evaluate that claim.

Also, I see the oregano-pizza-mafia connection (sort of), but I don't think that really counts as him "admitting he was mafia."

I would vote you except you're pretty near the lynch, and I want to keep pressure on your scum buddy, RangeroftheNorth.

[elvis_knits]

Maybe armlx should roleclaim.

Also, could we get a vote count,

mod

? Gracias!

[elvis_knits]

LOL. I didn't know what he was talking about when he said "I have a bad feeling about this." I was very...confused. And why didn't he say what episode it came from? I would assume all the quotes came to us in the same form.

So I'm sort of nervous to put on the lynching vote (as I never have before), but the evidence is overwhelming. Does it get any better than this? I'm putting on the lynching vote (provided Norinel counts raj).

unvote
finishing vote: armlx

[elvis_knits]

I expected Thok to be dead. I mean "deleted." But I guess mafia can use that to frame Thok. Or maybe they just wanted to go for a more powerful role...like doctor

[elvis_knits]

Oh. Or maybe Thok's mafia...don't want to leave that one out...

[elvis_knits]

vote dranko

for stoofer's reason

[elvis_knits]

i think the this game probably has star wars quotes as the role names, but im unsure about that.

It does sort of seem like a joke on dranko's part, now that I think about it. Darn these computers and their lack of ability to convey sarcasm!

unvote dranko

I still wonder though why it took him so long to start answering people's questions.

[elvis_knits]

Where's Peacebringer?

[elvis_knits]

Where's Peacebringer?

dead

o rly?

Not voting (9): elvis_knits,

PeaceBringer

, ibaesha, Quailman, Thoth, rajrhcpfreak, PBuG, SOS

[elvis_knits]

o rly?

(this too, is a joke)

[elvis_knits]

I <3 u Fritzler

[elvis_knits]

I was about to say I was happy you got here...

[elvis_knits]

Stoofer -- First of all, I am of the female persuasion. (I know it can be confusing with a name like Elvis, but I am a "she.")

Anyway, you are right about me being cautious about putting the finishing vote on armlx, mostly because I have been lynching wrong all the time lately. You can take a look at Newbie 149 if you don't believe me. When you put all my posts together like that I can see how it looks apologetic, but really I was just tring to explain my reasoning.

elvis_knits

: I find his posting weird. He gave a strange, unconvincing reason for not voting armlx (post 103). Trying to push the bandwagon on the townie forward without ending up on it? (See also comments on RangeroftheNorth below.)

My reasoning for not voting armlx at that time was that I thought him and RangeroftheNorth were both scum and I didn't want a landslide bandwagon on armlx before everyone had a chance to read and post. Also, I thought RangeroftheNorth was scummy too, so I don't see why that's a bad vote on my part.

Then when he applied the finishing vote to armlx (post 110) he was very defensive about it: "I'm sort of nervous to put on the lynching vote (as I never have before), but the evidence is overwhelming. Does it get any better than this?" Why do defensive? Because he knew armlx was pro-town?

Here I follow through on my accusations on armlx's scumminess. What's wrong with that? First you'r criticising me for not voting armlx, then you're criticising me for voting him. Seems you want to criticize me either way.

Simialrly, when he voted Dranko20 (post 130) he was at pains to point out that someone else was pushing the bandwagon.

I said I liked

your

reason for voting Dranko. I agreed with it. And who are you to criticize me for voting based on a reason you used yourself? How can you criticize me for agreeing with you?

Post 159, where he unvotes Dranko, also seems defensive - trying again, too hard IMHO, to justify his initial vote on Dranko20.

I don't know where I was defensive here. At least I changed my vote when I got an explanation from Dranko. You said you didn't believe dranko's explanation until the bandwagon had lost steam. Seems to me you only unvoted Dranko when you realized you couldn't get the lynch.

[elvis_knits]

astaroth, how did you get out of pooky mafia?

[elvis_knits]

I'm happy with my vote, and posts like the above don't make we want to change it.

Thoth: Your post 184 was odd because it was speculation without any rational basis.

so you're gonna ignore post 193, my point-by-point reaction to your accusation, and then slam me for making a joke?

vote: stoofer

[elvis_knits]

MOD:

Can we have a vote count please?

I still like myelvis_knits vote. I didn't ignore her point-by-point response to my thoughts on her. But I was not convinced.

I still love my Mr Stoofer vote
If you didn't ignore it, how come you have nothing to say except "still votin you -- BLAMO!" [/paraphrase]

[elvis_knits]

Why is Quailman not lynched yet?
Slackers.

I agree with this guy

*won't give into peer pressure*

[elvis_knits]

Yeah, but you're cute when you're mad...

[elvis_knits]

I need to reread; I sent Stoofer a message today-he can reveal whatever part of the content he desires.

Maybe I missed it, but I didn't see Stoofer revealing his message. Stoofer -- I'd like to hear it if you are willing to reveal.

I had forgotten Stoofer was Thok's choice for his message-sending abilities. Makes me think he's town, or atleast Thok thought he was town. (Unless they're both scum).

unvote Mr Stoofer

And also: Quailman...Dranko has already claimed. You saying you don't believe his claim?

[elvis_knits]

hummm, you might be on to somthing.

i havnt seen elvis play scum very good (sry) and she seams like shes getting very swayable so she wont look scummy.

im not really in the best positions to look it over and vote yet.... but i thought that you might be on somthing.

When have you seen me play scum?

[elvis_knits]

Last night on chat I replaced for you and didn't know what was going on, having not been there for most of the game.

[elvis_knits]

Fine. I'll let you bandwagon me for a while then.

BTW...

vote peacebringer

[elvis_knits]

Who says I have analyze? There are a lot of people in this game who don't seem to have to give reasons.

[elvis_knits]

I'm starting now. If people are gonna bust on me for trying to explain my reasons, I'd rather take the beating without having to go to the trouble to explain myself.

[elvis_knits]

Is there a better time?

[elvis_knits]

But then nobody would notice and what fun would that be?

p.s. Fritzler, let's fill up this whole page with posts from just us.

[elvis_knits]

Is it really that suspicious that I didn't write my reason for voting peacebringer? It's because he has needed prodding twice and has been jumping on each bandwagon.

[elvis_knits]

Oops. Maybe I am.

[elvis_knits]

No, please keep the attention on me.

[elvis_knits]

Thank you.

[elvis_knits]

SOS and Shamrock have asked me for a defense. If they want one, they should first tell me what it is I am supposed to be defending.

[elvis_knits]

Are you saying you want a defense for why I am acting so defensively?

I just can't win when you put it like that.

[elvis_knits]

If I am, does that make me scum?

I just don't know how I am supposed to defend myself for acting defensively.

[elvis_knits]

Ibaesha -- I have answered basically all those questions before. I will answer them again though...

1) As for Stoofer's allegations, I answered them right away, back in post 193 -- copied here for your convenience:

Stoofer -- First of all, I am of the female persuasion. (I know it can be confusing with a name like Elvis, but I am a "she.")

Anyway, you are right about me being cautious about putting the finishing vote on armlx, mostly because I have been lynching wrong all the time lately. You can take a look at Newbie 149 if you don't believe me. When you put all my posts together like that I can see how it looks apologetic, but really I was just tring to explain my reasoning.

I don't know where I was defensive here. At least I changed my vote when I got an explanation from Dranko. You said you didn't believe dranko's explanation until the bandwagon had lost steam. Seems to me you only unvoted Dranko when you realized you couldn't get the lynch.

2) I voted Stoofer for the reason I outlined above -- I felt like he only unvoted Dranko after realizing the bandwagon was losing steam. He said he didn't believe the claim originally, but then unvoted when other people believed Dranko.

3) I unvoted after "loving the vote" because I reread the thread and realized Thok sent his message to Stoofer that night. It made me think twice about my vote. I figured if Thok thought Stoofer was safe enough to send a message to, maybe I was all wrong about him. (I already said most of this in post 303).

And about not putting it elsewhere, I didn't put it elsewhere because this is my first mafia game with this many people and I am having trouble telling who is scum. Some people get away with bandwagoning, and some don't. Some people get away with spamming the thread (ahem, Fritzler) and some people do not. You're gonna say it all has to do with consistency, but if a player normally jumps bandwagons, does that excuse them from ever being scum?

But, you are right, Ibaesha, I should be voting for somebody. So I am. Leads me to...

4. I didn't vote for PB just to satisfy people. I voted for him because he has needed prodding twice and has been very happy to jump on any bandwagon for any reason. (Already said this in post 362.)


As for the rest of my defensive behavior, it's probably because I feel frustrated that people are just ignoring me when I defend myself. It's fine if you want to disagree with my defense, but to just pretend like I haven't said all this before is really annoying. Maybe you missed it though. This has been a long day 2.

[elvis_knits]

^^PUNK!

This is my claim if you want it:

"The ability to speak does not make you intelligent." (Qui-Gon Jinn, Episode I)

Seems horribly appropriate for me (thanks, Norinel ).

[elvis_knits]

my role is townie...no power.

And PBug said he had a prequel quote too.

[elvis_knits]

Also, it's spoken by a jedi knight...do you get any less scummy??

[elvis_knits]

Makes sense you would give them to babyj last night

[elvis_knits]

I guess I shouldn't have claimed.

[elvis_knits]

TSA can't finish me. I need one more, bioooootch.

[elvis_knits]

YESSSS! Stooferscum died too! GO TOWN!
