Having said that...I am curious what you guys think of each other. Eg Sawneeks, what are you opinions of AB and TB, etc?
Been meaning to get to this so here we go!
AbsolutBro
Before the happenings of Day 3 I was not sure about AB as he had been fairly quiet and didn't stand out too much, although this is something I am also fairly guilty of. With the start of Day 3 we get CzarTim role claiming and 'clearing' AB as a Hope player. This is AB's first post after Tim's claim
I can confirm I'm Hope (not that you have any reason to believe me), but if Czar is telling the truth then there's a simple check:
Vote: Pau
One of two things will happen: Pau is Despair and I feel like shit for ever doubting Czar. (that insane post of mine, with all the fucked up line breaks? Read closely)
Option two: Pau is hope, so you kill me (feel real bad about it) and then kill Czar.
IF Czar is hope, Pau won't be.
Which I find interesting since this first post
actually outs another Fight Club member. A poor choice of a vote? Maybe. A way for Despair to slowly edge pressure of Pau? Also possible. The odd thing is nobody even picks up on this 'out' until CzarTim says how disappointed he is for AB to out Pau. I also want to note that AB says he did not think about an untraceable killer but then proceeds to explain how the 'untraceable' ability can be placed on any role.
Here and
Here. The only saving grace about the latter is that AB has stuck by this response that he didn't think there would be an invisible killer when voting for Pau. It makes me more inclined to believe it was just a poor choice of words plus CzarTim bringing attention to it that Pau gained traction.
So...I don't know. Day 3 is almost the only little pieces of info we have on AB so far other than a few bits today where he defends himself and his actions of Day 3, all of which make sense and line up. I am firmly in the middle.
However, out of the two you have asked me to look at I am far more willing to vote for one:

I do want to point out an exchange that TB and Tim had on Day 3 which feels almost...rehearsed? It's weird. It starts on page 43 for any curious. Basically, TB asks Tim to reveal some names of Fight Club to get a direction, though Tim denies saying he doesn't want to out anyone ( even though he kinda outed Pau?? ) , to which TB responds:
Only because come the night, you will probably die. Like I said, you can wait until the end of the day if you like, but with even the smallest chance of you know one of their names, you ARE a dead man walking.
Something which really hasn't been proven true. I mean, Goshu and Makai are alive even though they were 'revealed' and SalvaPot wasn't outed and still died. I also want to point out that Tim's role was a 'one-shot' and he was, at that point, just a Townie, someone not-so-important. It just seems weird and it helped paint CzarTim as Hope really well, negating a few people's suspicions of him. It could be a play by Despair to help build Czar in a good light.
Next I want to focus on the end of Day 3, specifically who Terra voted for and why or the lack thereof.
I wouldn't hit TL21xx quite yet. As someone who frequently travels across Texas, it does fit with a lack of activity.
I really, REALLY don't think we should vote out someone unless we think there is a good chance they are scum. Every hope live lost is just one more to add to the pile, and losing a general consensus hope player isn't going to give us much information.
Good advice, right? Don't vote for someone unless you have a real good reason to do so, it makes sense. Sooo...why vote for me at the end of Day 3? Your only given reason is this, which is in response to Crab voting for me:
It's funny, I was just winding about him myself. Looking over his vote record, he has yet to really take a chance past day one.
Before hand there had never been any talk about me, from you OR Crab. It feels very convenient that when the big ol' Hope Leader starts to look my way you have a good back up if you want to follow through. A weak one, at that. Didn't you just say that you need to have a good reason to vote for someone? 'Slightly odd vote records' doesn't hold up much compared to Makai or Zipped who, at the time, was considered super scummy and had people against them with evidence at hand.
We need to save Czar, I am sure of it.
VOTE: Sawneeks
-snip-
Why do we need Czar? Still haven't given a reason against me fyi.
He has been nothing but upfront about the map, fight club, and giving solid, if only opinionated, arguments about what info should and shouldn't be open to the public. And dispite all that, he's the lead Lynch candidate JUST because it could be a gambit. A long term, consistent, well thought out gambit that was set in motion from the beginning of day two and has held up to INCREADIBLE pressure. It makes no sense.
As for lynching him to set our minds at ease, We didn't do that when it was only KG and Crab, and that was practically the same thing, there is NO reason to Lynch him at this moment in time, none.
Defended Czar, that's fine. You lay out why he is good and should be saved, that this plan has been in motion for a while, had a lot of thought in it, has held up to other things....
Yet won't vote for Tim even though he wants people to? Despite the fact that you trust him? Your only defense is that we didn't do that for Kg/Crab and that we have no reason to kill Tim. We did have a reason, a few in fact; to settle AB's 'clear' and determine a Ninja or not. We had way more of a reason to kill him then than we did with Kg/Crab.
I then mention I have a role, you back out and vote Rest ( ???? ), but before you can shift your vote back to me ( which you try to do ) the Day finally ends with a majority on CzarTim.
Your saving grace is your arguments during today which you stated you place and questioned others well. I am still not quite so sure about you, but I would not be against a lynch being thrown your way.
Now, Swamped...
Tag, you're it! No tag backs!
