Lynch Kara

I think the killer vote is bad, and side-eyeing lupin for blowing KL's "reason" for voting out of proportion. But I know that people are not gonna want to lynch her for sentimentality.

But Mel, why Kara?

@Melchizedek will you stick with your npc vote?

@capri1722 I told you in whatever chat last game that not all wolves are terrible at math. Who would you vote for if not am?

@SARdoghandler why killer

for now I'm fine with zigzag and understand why she didn't open the pm
These are just bad, bad questions designed to look like good wolf hunting.

Then the push on BJ was her making a mountain out of a mole-hill and I'm surprised it even gained traction. She said she didn't like statistics, and then made a post about statistics. So she must be a wolf? Explain to me how that tracks.

It feels like she picked someone to lynch and then tried to keep them talking to justify her lynch vote and get others to vote there. The same tactic she used to try to get me lynched in CO before I was converted.

So Bj started picking up votes and is now a viable lynch candidate. Where are you @Karabiner13 why aren't you pushing her lynch if you really think she's a wolf?

Nah I think kara's manufacturing sketch.
 
I'm reaallllly trying not to tunnel Moose right now because it's kind of rude to lynch someone their first day back but I'm seriously fighting with her off tone right now
I'm glad to be back 😀 but my grades would thank ya for the lynch

P.S. I would actually be so sad to be lynched D1 on a horsey game and my first game back

I didn't blow it out of proportion. The reason was forced. I don't recall there ever being a need to force a reason for a vote. You either have a solid reason or it was for reaction. When you want to see how someone responds when they do something you feel is off, you vote for them. Not that hard of a concept.
 
You are on dolphin, but who would you vote outta the top right now?
other than dolphin (who I think is probably just sick and acting sassier than normal) probably kara because of what I stated before (that she's acting similarly to how she was when I wolfed with her in CO). other than that, not really getting vibes from people. Don't really get the killer or bryndi votes
 
But, for consideration and for me to come back to later:

for bandwagonning (reserve the right to change later)

Hedgey McHedgerson. On top of the rest of that post really reading as fluff

Not offering anything outside of fluff posting - and the levels of gif (this is going to be rich coming from me) borders on distraction levels. Like "oh, look at me I'm so funny there's no way I could be a wolf!" Using gifs to add humour into strategy posts I'm totally behind. Using them as reaction snippets to every 5th post = distraction.

That coupled with the aggro tone that I'm not used to from her... Could be gearing up for an A+ tunnel.

Ah long day TL;DR
Lynch Dina

Cause D1, better to get a vote out there regardless. Apologies didn't think I'd be this late coming home today.

Hmm I don't think we've played together before. Hi, I'm Mel/Cheese/CheezyDick and I think pressure votes are malarky.
its T-1 hour til lynch and you're still sitting on killer so that to me doesn't sound like a reaction test or a pressure vote. You either did or you didn't get the response out of KL that you wanted to see, so can you give me another reason besides a "forced vote" that keeps you there? Why are you okay with the Bryndy lynch but not switching to make sure it goes through; I mean there's a tie hanging around, don't you want to see your wolf-read lynched?

Killer attempted to explain themself. They directed it all towards ziggy, but I assume that is because they've played together and that was more comfortable. I haven't voted bryndi because the pressure is still on all of them and I am waiting to see what shakes out. And if you don't think pressure votes get results, you are sorely mistaken.
 
Unlynch SAR
Lynch genny

I'd probably be voting Moose but since she has just come back from hiatus I'm not going to jump there.

Genny voted lupin without a reason then unvoted and voted capri without a reason and hasn't really said anything else so I feel like I want a vote there.

why genny and not any of the others who were current runners up? (capri, killer, bryndy)

Nah I think kara's manufacturing sketch.

my question to you was serious because pips had put out a tally that had your vote in italics and I wanted to see your take on it without me mentioning it. You never did and instead just got upset

I'm headed to bed. I've got a bunch of surgeries early tomorrow. Welcome to the new karabou. This will likely be the most active that I am 🙂

Could go for moose. zigzag without knowing it stated the exact thing I was thinking when moose posted her gif to me (yay for the mindmeld :laugh: )

for now I'm interested in how this tie will play out
 
So what are the reasonings for Dina?
Didn't have time to look into anything or the full roster, looked at the current tally, didn't want to try to touch that super tie, especially cause last minute I could screw up whatever people who know what's going on are doing, picked someone whose name was up there with no votes to not case Lynch by ignorence. Dina caught my eye. Boom thought process.
 
didn't love killer's backtracking on her reason for ziggy.
despised the statistics talk and want to lynch all of them for it
AM seems like her question-filled self so far.
something about moose seemed weird.

why vote for anyone if you don't know at all what's going on. there's still 45 minutes until close.
 
lynch Cray
Haven't seen her much, or at least haven't seen her word vomit yet

Well, there's still 45 minutes left if you want to look into the leading candidate and come to a more informed decision.
