dedoporno: I still haven't heard back from Flocke and nmillar. If they don't respond in the next couple of days I'll start looking for subs and consider extending the day or maybe putting the game on hold for a few days. At least Lift may benefit from that.
Flocke(no offense meant if yah read this, Flocke :)) might've been overwhelmed by the game again, or might be busy with IRL(like in a prior game, iirc)...dunno about Nmillar. Still, I hope both are ok.

Also by putting the game on hold for a few days, you mean a longer N2 phase or extension of D2?
(either would be fine in my book, btw, if you're looking for input)

dedoporno: PSA: Our Easter is this weekend and I'll be visiting my in-laws with my family on Sunday. My availability on that day will be limited but I will make an appearance for sure.
Mike TV says it best ;)

Silly vid posting aside, I hope ya have fun for the holidays...make sure to save us some treats and other foodstuffs, k? :)

GymHenson: Also by putting the game on hold for a few days, you mean a longer N2 phase or extension of D2?
I'd rather have a longer day so their absence doesn't have as much impact on the game. They can be scum getting a lucky break just because they're AWOL, Town getting knocked out for the worst possible reason or scum getting voted out because IRL is preventing them from defending properly. Either way it would be unfair to at least one team and all players as a whole. So yeah, definitely longer day or even game on pause for a short bit rather than ending the day under these circumstances.

Bookwyrm627: How'd that go, anyway? Do you have anything to share?
Ah it didn't really. Once Teams started working again I just had to work harder to catch up on the work I couldn't do earlier. Pretty tired now, about to go to bed (not actually any posts today, just saw I had a notification to reply to).
Happy Resurrection Sunday to everyone who celebrates it this week!!!

I'm in flavor of extending D2 to give them a chance to catch up.

In the meantime
GR: thank you for your reasons.
Lift: Agreed.

Yes, I would strongly support an extension of the Day until replacements are found.

Lifthrasil: Yes, I would strongly support an extension of the Day until replacements are found.
I think I'll wait until tomorrow and then just pause the game for a couple of days until Flocke/nmillar return and/or I have enough replacements. As I said it's holidays here anyway so I could use the break, too.
It's Easter here too, for my wife's family at least. So I'm also in favor of pausing until Flocke and nmillar show up.

Pookina: Interestingly enough, catte and flocke, who voted NL, are absent today. Huh.
Oho!

I mean, huh?

I mean, I'm not absent in the sense that Flocke and Nmillar have been. That's not to say my participation has been as high as it ought to be.

I would definitely support an extension. It's a small game and people getting modkilled/lynched for disappearing would have a big impact on the outcome whatever team they're on.

GH strolled for the first time into the hall, admiring the craftsmanship evident in even something like a lodging corridor.....fine wood paneling gracing the walls, nice paintings spaced along the walls...etc etc.

In a common room connected to the hall, you notice that other crew/passengers are listening with intent to a message from the captain....something about a delay in the journey: "Good, gives me some extra time to relax and collect my thoughts" GH thought, before picking a book off a nearby shelf to take back to his cabin.
I mean, I'd support an extension. To hopefully sort the game's current state out.

Sorry guys, had my Covid jab on Monday and had the full bag of side effects, then our telephony system fell over at work.

I'll try and catch up today.
Okay, so not much has changed since day 1, other than Pookina getting a bunch of town points for the analysis of ZFR's posts.

I still think GH or Lift are the most likely and both are perfectly capable of pulling off WIFOM move.

As such, Vote GymHenson

OK. That's an explanation. I hope you feel better now.

nmillar: I still think GH or Lift are the most likely
Why?
To me, this feels like a convenient minimal effort statement and vote. Sure, it can come from a Townie, who didn't catch up yet and sees no reason yet to change their vote. But it can also be from Scum, who thinks 'these two went over well yesterday. So it will be inconspicuous if I suspect them again.' So please explain why we are the most likely with something more than 'they were suspected yesterday'.

Yes, much better now, thank you, but did mean the first half of the week was a complete write off, and then coming back to work and getting an aging telephony system back online ... fun times.

As for reasoning, I already mentioned that you and GH are both capable of a WIFOM move, in the part of the quote you cut out. I think GH is the more likely of the two to try this, as you generally have a much better thought out plan in these games, whereas GH can be a bit more "off the cuff", hence my vote being with him rather than you.

Other than Pookina's analysis, there's not been anything of real substance from anyone on day 2 so far, so it's only reasonable to pick up where things left off on day 1. As per Pookina's analysis, ZFR had pretty much everyone on their list at one point, so the NK hasn't really given us any extra information.

....
As per Pookina's analysis, ZFR had pretty much everyone on their list at one point, so the NK hasn't really given us any extra information.
1. that's not really a reason. Everyone is capable of employing WIFOM. Just that someone would be able to do something if he were part of the scum faction, doesn't mean that he automatically is part of that scum faction. Since alignment isn't handed out according to ability, but randomly. So 'would be capable of WIFOM' is a very thin reason to suspect someone. ... It's a reason, not to remove someone from suspicion, because of WIFOM. But there has to be a reason for suspicion first. And here your reason is just: "Well, what someone else said." (paraphrased)
In other words, you pick someone who was already suspected by others without adding anything yourself.

2. I disagree. While it is true, that ZFR's NK didn't give us much extra information (probably one of the reasons why he was selected), and definitely not as much as a lynch would have (the reason why I urged not not no-lynch on D1), there is some information. As discussed earlier Today. Funnily you are among the players with relatively low interaction with ZFR. Which you seem to be conveniently overlooking with your ' ZFR had pretty much everyone on their list at one point' statement.
