Ah ok. I had the exact same ?! reaction when seeing that lol, but yeah I don't think it's related.

It's just about The Game. The one that you lose whenever you remember it.

--------

I am not entirely caught up yet, but I do have some thoughts.

TUA/Cash are probably not E/E (I know, this is obvious to everyone else, just let me get my thoughts down.)

Weaver/Wierdo are (probably) not E/E

I'm leaning village on Aet.

I'm leaning a bit elim on Weaver and TUA, but the reason I'm leaning elim on Weaver is likely NAI. (things changed while I was typing this up.)

TUA said to vote Cash and that he'd explain later. This could be to get us to lylo (where e!TUA would probably win,) and I don't like that idea.

From what I've seen, even with homework and school Wierdo is being quieter than I'd expect. (Maybe that's just because he's better at managing priorities and such than I was when I first started playing SE in school *shrug*) Also, often SE has a way of taking over your brain space whether or not you want it to if you're checking it enough.

Edit (sorry): I suppose if TUA and Cash were e/e, TUA would not be trying to die on the "Kill Cash!" hill.

Very true.

@The Unknown Ajah still waiting for this explanation.

I feel that I'm misreading TUA. Perhaps if I felt more confident with the idea of v!Cash.

Wierdo

It’ll take a fair amount of convincing to change that.

Eh, honestly, because of your constant pushing since Yesterday, I think I may vote you back Wol

Hm.

Do I call this a generic new player thing, or do I say this fits a newbie elim. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.

I won't be around for EoD today, going to sleep in an hour for real this time.

[Quivil]

I need to go to bed.

TUA.

See y'all tomorrow.

No no no, we can't be split today if we split the vote the elims can cause a v!exe without even revealing themselves. 

[Aeternum]

I believe that ties Cash and TUA at 2 each? Plus there's a vote on Weirdo.

Aaaaaaaaargh.

There might be another post I made this cycle, but this mostly covers my reasons.

Cash: Pretty strong e/e connections with e!RBM. Most common denominator teammate with any other person. Is heavily pushing me which is actually imperically tested to be an elim tell. I'm not kidding on that btw. Probably don't need to explain that right now but it is a thing that has worked in the past.

Also, we cannot afford to be split today. It's far too easy for the elims to interfere, if not an outright hammer. I think if we exe anyone other than Cash today, a v!flip ruins us. If we exe Cash, even if we get a v!flip, we go into exlo in a better situation. 

This was the post I was actually working on when Quivil posted.

I'm about as firmly in my v!meta as I get.

I voted a confirmed elim c1 when Kas explicitly said he wanted to create a train on them if he had the numbers.

There is a consistent track record of elims being the first ones to vote me. I talk about it with Kas in some old games. Cash falls very firmly into that trap record.

Alright

Also can you answer: 

Why not vote RBM? Why stay on TUA?

please? *bribes you with large amounts of salmon*

Now dying in the hill (perhaps literally) that Weaver and Weirdo aren't paired.

Did something happen to that idea?

Because I think for sure that TUA is an elim. My vote was not going to change the outcome, it was 3 or 4 to 1. I took the time to show my reasoning, and then after the train formed, there was no point in changing. My vote was there as a reminder that we needed to discuss TUA next cycle.

Yeah its related to the game (lost it again). You can check my post history.

So many ninjas goodness

Why

Because exing someone else doesn't resolve anything. Exing me kind of does, but exing say Weaver or Wierdo just ends up back at me vs Cash again.

Right now I’m more tempted to flip to Cash’s side than yours. And that would help the vote be less spread out…

True. And I guess asking you vs Cash would be pointless rn.

I so badly want to believe this, but idk if I'm getting played. I still slightly TR you

I follow his reasoning more. And, as I stated before, there was Kas’s vote last cycle against TUA. He changed it, but I think it could still be meaningful.

You can check the RBM part with little enough effort yourself. Honestly, that should be enough to put me far above Cash. He hasn't done anything villagery, to the point of staying on me while RBM was exed. Sure, I stayed on him then too, but I tried to exe RBM d1 at a volatile EoD when Kas explicitly wanted to start a train on RBM. Believe the other stuff or not as you wish, but what has Cash done to come anywhere close to that?

True…

yeah, I don’t know at this point. There’s arguments for and against both of you. My biggest suspicion is still Wierdo.

I don't actually disagree with you. Wierdo is probably most likely to be Cash's teammate, but we only need to exe one, and the chances are better for Cash than Wierdo.

Maybe in your opinion, but you’re still a suspect for me.

I was actually re-reading back through your d1 when you sent this lol. I agree, that gives your townie points, and I do feel you're more town than Cash, hence why I am voting Cash rn over you. But I also know you're a smart elim who I would probably struggle to pick up on, so IDK ANYMORE. I think I can trust v!you to be fine for lylo if needed - def. don't think I can trust Cash, and yeah the two of you against each other at lylo is probably not as good.

Seconding this

[Weaver of Shadows he/him]

Well, I need to go to sleep. And I need to put my vote out here. My first suspect is Wierdo, but he isn’t going to be voted out. So I have to go with my gut, along with what I’ve seen for myself, not what other people tell me I see or should see.

Wierdo

TUA

Edited May 9, 2024 by Weaver of Lies

[Aeternum]

I think that's now:

TUA (3): Cash, Quivil, Weaver
Cash (2): TUA, Aet
Weaver (1): Weirdo

Ooooof. If TUA flips town then y'all better vote Cash at lylo smh. GL guys. If I'm still alive tomorrow, I will be throwing a festival in Ravebringer's honour, and everyone is invited (elims must bring apology salmon).

Legacy:

- Cash/TUA are v/e. Town should probably vote Cash tomorrow if TUA flips v. Best case scenario at lylo IS the 50/50 iirc, so town - vote for the tie together. I'm guessing the two wolves will vote together - see who's voting with Cash & Weirdo at the end of the day, early votes may not mean much. My projected elim pairing is Weirdo/Cash, btw.

- RBM spew (on Spark) clears Quivil quite a bit. Weaver is slightly in the clear from spew. Don't underestimate them.

- Weirdo wolfleans, but I'd say you have a better shot at Cash being elim vs Weirdo. I could see Cash/Weaver pairing, tbh. Less likely than Cash/Weirdo, though. Edit: Weirdo/Weaver are likely v/e as well and unlikely to be paired.

- Raven is town's biggest asset tmr - I trust Raven will be able to keep town on the right path 

- Pray that all my TUA reads are wrong and that he's actually elim lol

Good night and good luck!

numbers r hard

[The Unknown Medallion he/him]

I can't stay up tonight. I'll leave one last ping to try to get you guys to change your minds.

@Quivil @Weaver of Lies @Wierdo

Please, at least two of you have to be village. Consider what Cash has done. Has he done anything even remotely v!leaning?

Well I have. I voted an elim when they very well could have and maybe should have died. Kasimir, yes Weaver that same Kas that you're using his vote as part of your logic, said he didn't see an e!tell of mine. Maybe that was because, oh I don't know, I'm not an elim?

Cash doesn't really have any logic behind going after me. His main reasoning is that I pushed Archer, a villager, something that necessarily must happen in this game. We all get it wrong sometimes. Do you want to know the kicker of that reasoning though? I was pushing Archer in large part because I thought he was e/e with who? With RBM. Who I suspected and voted from d1. Why does e!me consistently push his teammate and vote them at a highly volatile time, then continue to distrust them for another cycle after that?

The only reason I didn't keep going after RBM last turn was because, upon what was admittedly a shock seeing Archer flip v, I reevaluated too hard, abandoning a game-long suspicion on the one player we know is e.

But I must digress. You may have to kill me to see reason, even if it puts the game into the infinitely wise hands of the gods of Luck and Chance.

All I ask, and you should head my words when I flip green, is that you vote Cash after me. Don't let yourselves get distracted by other options. Once I flip, Cash is the best alternative. You can try to go after Wierdo or get paranoid on Aet or whatever, but stay the course. You have a 50/50 shot at this if and only if you vote together. 

So please, I must say it again to get this across, it's the most important thing I can say. Even if you exe me tonight, you have to remember this, vote together on Cash tomorrow. Do not get separated. I repeat, do not get separated. 

That's all. If I die, I die, it's not in my hands. TUA out.

Fortunae et Fors dii fata nostra statuant.
