Well, once Newcastle finally posts he will most likely vote as well.

You did. I just seem to remember you did alot of your thinking out loud in the main thread which I like to do as well although it seems to make people suspicious of me.

This was the first game where I thought something was really ODD with you. Its good you turned out mason, tho, because your lack of "Stream of Concience" posting was really odd. Also, Chaos set you up with that "OOPS, I messed up and posted in the wrong forum" outing.

*warning a long ass post coming up ahead*
/walks up to the group,
/drinks a bit of his coffee
"My apologies, I seem to have fallen asleep earlier, anyhow….
/looks over to Rev
"Oh, here comes the rub Rev."
All the digging that I did, Rev here started setting off some pretty big alarm bells. He right now is suspect numero uno for me."
Ah where to begin:
“Only looking for two”
Check this link out - http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 31#1211531
Early in the post he said that conversion was probably achieved, and cites the 4 bad guys..But then, then he says later on…..he was only looking for 2? Why not 3? But earlier in that post, he said that conversion had probably been achieved….hmmm? What happened to number 3 Rev?
This was the big post of his without the enter key.
The Unagi Bandwagon -
Rev hops on to the Unagi bandwagon -
http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 53#1212753
Rev provides more reasoning as to why he his hoping on the bandwagon (change of behavior)
http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 39#1213639
Rev - pretty much followed the bandwagon here on Unagi. He said that there was a change of behavior. Of course there would be Grund is laying into Unagi....Grund can easily put you on the defensive. And yes your tone will change. Also at that point no real evidence that Grund had presented. Rev was supporting his accusations via behavior that had changed due to Grunds accusations. Grund’s evidence V. Unagi was at best….paltry. Go with the flow young man,
Now on p. 22 when Unagi reveals he has the sword and requests the votes to be removed...this here is Rev's response
http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 84#1215084
The unknown fiasco -
P. 56 http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 99#1221799
Look at this list in it Rev lists the people as "10 players with 3 badguys
7 unknown players"
Am simply curious "why are they unknown" - Perhaps in your demon brood weren't able to figure em out? This is really not in itself all the damning; however, one more thing. Notice the curious omission of Scoop? Well originally it was, but Rev went back and edited his post.
Why was Scoop not in the unknown? What did Rev know about Scoop?
Here is the original as quoted by Remus -
http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 30#1221830
(Remus caught it, then CR quoted it (kind of had to didn't he..Kraeggor hadn't outted him yet)
)
http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 14#1221814
(REV - YOU HAVE TO STOP EDITING YOUR POSTS!)
Then he starts to scramble a bit -
He first cites using Scoop as the list then (p.57)
http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 24#1221924
"Scoop was missing because I copy/pasted his last list. Sorry I overlooked him not being there."
And then he says this (italics are added by me)-
REMUS
Early on day 1 you said this bout Remus -
http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 31#1213331
On p. 27 he says he's hesitant to vote for Remus because he thinks he's innocent
http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 56#1215656
here
http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 74#1222074

http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 79#1222779
http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 17#1224217
If Remus is innocent then we need to test the following

CRETAN
http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 07#1222807
The CR vote - now we know Kraeggor was the seer, beyond a doubt. And this part is rather interesting…. He said he was going to wait for a response and then vote for him. But ya didn't. Rev voted for CR before CR's response. Why was he so sure of his guilt? The implication is clear, Rev had to be on that vote. This is what I am getting at - Did he know ahead of time? He KNEW he had to be on that vote, he knew Kraeggor was right.
WEEEEEEEE!
Rev makes a nicely placed "we" comment
http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 80#1225480
- not going to quote whole thing, it's a rather big post
then chalks it up to it being a "ploy"
http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 06#1225606
And sorry nope it was bad editing
http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 40#1225840
So hopefully the reading was worthwhile in summary: his looking for 2 suspects, his joining the Unagi bandwagon and hesitance to remove his vote on a Special, the "unknowns" & scoop, his subsequent wafflings, his flipping between remus innocent/guilty, and then the "we" bit. Each time he made a "mistake", he responded by saying it was a type of ploy. Was it?
I think you all know whom I am going to vote for at the end of the day.
/Mr. Bongko pulls at Newcastle’s robe,

Then he leaves for the day - I bring this up, because he leaves his vote on Unagi. To his credit he does remove it albeit later. BUT…..If you just had a relic bearer self out - wouldn't you want to give them a bit of safety?RevHempus71 wrote:Ok then.........Unagi wrote:I shucks, I just realized I could have help you all with this vote a long time ago.

So it was a ploy then right?RevHempus71 wrote:Well, I think it is my turn to out myself and my play as of late.
First I am an unpowered Priest. I was intentionally messing up my posts earlier(Austin has a PM you can see in the spoilers later). I left off Scoop and messed up my numbers to seem like I knew something more than I was letting on. It was a ploy I told Grund but our conversation was ended before we could work out any details. I think I did the right thing to try and buy more time for our specials.
Now on to the fun stuff. Chaosraven will get my vote once he has a chance to check in. After him I feel that Lassr and Proner are most likely Balaam and Legion. However that is not to rule out Newcastle and Scoop but they just don't give me the badguy heebie jeebies that much. So it looks like we (the goodguys) have this one.
Well done Kreagor, I knew there was a reason I liked your style.![]()

So who are your new suspects?
But if you are asking who my suspects are IF you and Chaos are Masons.... I would be looking at Remus, Lassr, and Newcastle. This is not meant to count out Kreagor, Scoop, Pr0ner,and Zurai though.

Not gonna happen.Unagi wrote:I'd be happy to if you could tell me why it would be relevant. Seems like a weird question to ask a trusted player.Remus West wrote:Unagi, care to share what made you say you trust RevHempus71?![]()
Now I find this odd since I have openly stated I thought your "indecent proposal" was just mere fishing trip. I thought that would have given a goodguy Remus a little reason to "trust" me. However as a badguy Remus wouldn't "trust" me at all. So that being said, Remus just which one of the badguys are you.... Legion or Cretan?
http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 79#1222779
Interesting Rev isn't sure now if Remus is guilty, but "he stood by it" (why the vote the previous day), but he is willing to test Remus -RevHempus71 wrote:I have been re-reading and re-thinking a couple things. Chaos as Cretin makes me wonder a bit about Remus. I am leaning more towards Remus and Lassr being the other 2 badguys. I mean if Chaos was pulling "the cup in front of you" to Stess, why not Remus try it with the rest of us.....
Thoughts?
http://www.octopusoverlords.com/phpBB2/ ... 17#1224217
That is cold – you think he is innocent, but you are willing to test him…well if the trusted want him to vote that way. “as well”?RevHempus71 wrote:Sean I have stood by my feeling that Remus isn't really bad. I have been swayed a bit by how he keeps trying to push me to the front as a suspect, Triggercut principle says since I know I am innocent then he would have to be bad. I just don't feel it fully though. I am very suspicious of scoop though, and feel he needs to be tested as well. I believe one of those two need to be tested today. However, I will vote with the trusted if they deem Remus the larger distraction.
If Remus is innocent then we need to test the following

The original sentence was.... Of these 4 players we need to think about who would likely convert Chaos, and why they would likely convert chaos. I shortened it after preview and missed a word. That is all that really happened. The "it was meant to play with badguys" was sarcasm.
The blue parts are what I deleted or at least meant to. Th original post had a list of why I thought Chaos was the convert, but I deleted that stuff too because I felt it was redundant.

Also, the error I thought was grievous, was not, I couldn't read my handwriting is all.

That was no setup. That was me making the one Gaffe I told Mr. Paranoid to really worry about.

i was hoping he would kelric 
I was leaning hard for scoop earlier this week as being one of the evil ones, but my leanings toward him have slid, consequently Lassr and Proner have both moved up. I am still filled with doubt on all of them.
Proner - has played a very quiet game, seeming to pipe up when needed and when accused. (notice when Rev accused him). It's just he hasn't said as much that is concrete that helps shed a light.
Lassr - seems to have played a very deliberate game, cautious almost. He's said a bit, but also was trying to find meat in his thoughts; but none strike me really.
Scoop - He has done a lot to draw attention to himself early in the game, and throughout. He has slid down my suspect list as well. It almost seems as if he has mellowed /shrug.
I noted also in my initial summary post...areas which I found interesting. Rev rocketed up, hence I spent a lot of time digging in to him. I am going to have to go back in there and further analyze how he interacted with the other folks in the suspect pool.

Hi. Been working in the yard all day. Checking in before taking a shower. Then I'll be gone to take the wife and kids somewhere to eat.
I think Newcastle is a little too serious about this game, he must want to win or something.
I'll check back tonight and digest all that has been posted. I just did a quick glance through now to make sure nothing dramatic had happened.

I have read everything in Newcastle's post and I must say. I disagree. The analysis is OK, the conclusions I think are deliberately misleading. It also smells a lot like a smear campaign. I have, over just the last few days re-visited my concerns on Revhempus a number of times - and each time I come up with: "Nope, it is just not clicking".
Newcastle's example of when Rev came out from being Grund's contact - Gunning to test Chaos (as it was Grund's request to him to do that). This is not something an evil Rev would do. Also - I totally don't buy into Newcastles point that Chaos called Rev out on his 'List Error', just to stay clean. To accept this, you need to think that the Bad Guys (with three players perfectly hidden) would start that day by 1 claiming that our trusted Grundbegriff wanted to test Chaos, and then Chaos would point out errors in Rev's list?
No. I don't buy this - none of it.
My top suspects (in order) are:
Newcastle
pr0ner
Lassr
I feel that Newcastle or pr0ner is likely Balaam.
I feel that Lassr or pr0ner is likely Legion.
The only way we get to actually have 3 misses is if we hit Once in our first Two tries.
So, lets try and do just that (or Better).
My plan to maximize our misses is to put the two people who I think are most likely to generate a 'Hit' as the first two lynch choices.
Newcastle would be my first shot. (if he dies 'Good', we can take his analysis more to heart, if we don't we'll still have the Newcastle concern hanging over us)
Should I live tonight, tomorrow I would test pr0ner. (and if I die, I strongly suggest we continue to follow this plan.)
I would suggest we follow those two up with Lassr (Lassr, who's been spewing his meta abscences so often in this game, I think it's a hint that he's not evil. If he is evil - oh the shame and headache he will have in future games with that M.O.)
Newcastle's last few days, I feel, were an attempt to create the illusion that he is trying to be very careful, and very helpful... and that he cares about a good-guy victory.
Think people.
To Scoop and Rev:
Yes, I see what both of you see in each other here. Believe me, I do. I think you are both wrong. I've thought a lot about it, and I am fairly satisfied with that. Could I be wrong? Well, I'm human and won't try and insist I am always right, but I have not come to this conclusion lightly, and I do feel good regarding it. I strongly urge the two of you to accept one another.

unagi - ya know i am kind of insulted that you think it's a smear campaign. honestly, i went through this thread and did the best I could to help the temple. It took a lot of time to do that...and to have it reduced to a smear campaign? I dont mind you disagreeing. Honestly, I thought you would be happy to see me giving my all; while I was working on it.... I kept at it, going..."ok the folks need me, the folks need me...". It honestly took a lot out of me, all this weekend i went through it. Time unagi, it took a lot of time from me...that i could have been doing other things. And it's a smear campaign?
My helpfulness is not an illusion Unagi. It is just that, helpfulness. Honestly if you werent a proven good guy, you would have rocketed to the top of my list due to your hastiness yesterday. So i don't see how you can see my actions as being an illusion.
Just really pissed off right now with a lot of parts of this game; i am so close to burnout in these games (yes realize am in the next one, but only because my friends is)...i give it my all, and have it pushed back in my face. Fuck it...

Sorry I've not been around the last couple days. I have been checking in the thread periodically but I've not had the ability to really sit down and pour through everything until now.
I'll be honest with you all: I have no firm suspects. I'm not good at analyzing subtle behavior through text. Heck, I'm not that great at it in person. I'm not bad at analyzing facts, but analyzing insights is a very weak point for me. To top it all off, I'm not very familiar with any of the remaining citizenry, so I don't even have any established patterns to analyze.
That all being said, I have to admit that Newcastle's posts have me interested. He's put an incredible amount of effort into them, and I have a hard time believing that someone would put THAT much time and effort into being a liar. That may be a reflection of myself, I don't know, but it's hard for me to believe it regardless. That does NOT necessarily mean that his conclusion is correct - I'm not condemning RevHempus - but it does mean that I'm disinclined to vote for him at the moment.
Unfortunately, I do not have a firm target to vote FOR. I think it's important to realize that Newcastle | RevHempus is NOT a binary choice. We do not have to choose one or the other, and it's quite possible that they're BOTH innocents.

Newcastle, I know exactly how you feel. You just got done reading and analyzing 70 odd pages of posts and now you feel like someone just tossed it back in your face.
This was exactly my reaction when after I spent all the time early in the game counting posts and analyzing people's plays and you dumped that vote one me. It just pissed me off and I wanted to chuck the whole thing and let everyone else have it.
Also, I have let myself get lead around this game on some important votes, 1st by Grund against Unagi which lead to Unagi being outed and 2nd by Unagi against Remus West which costs us a day and a trusted.
This time I am not changing my vote.
Guess what Unagi, you are wrong. Newcastle is innocent. Do you really believe he is going to analyze 70 pages of posts to throw you off. There are less time consuming way to do throw you off.
Newcastle could be wrong but I am 100% sure he is not a demon. I don't agree with all his analysis but some of it I do.
Thats why I am going with Rev. Rev has made some bad posts then tried to cover it with posts saying he planned it all along. That doesn't make him guilty of being demon but with everything else I have mentioned before, he makes my best candidate for tonight.
Lets hear what Rev has say before we decide to go forward but for now my vote stays with Rev and I asked Newcastle to drop his vote and Unagi to realize he is wrong and pick another candidate.

all the while I was working on it Unagi, you kept on going..is it done yet? is it done yet? seriously look how many times you psoted that..I told you I was working on it, i hadn't forgotten....and all the while I am working on it....and here it goes against your preconceived notions of people...and bam its a smear campaign. At least respect other peoples work dude. there are other reasons also that i am not pleased atm; but i'm going to wait till the end of the game to get into that.

This should help some of you. Those of you who don't believe me, I will be telling you, "I told you so" later:
Possible Demons:
Lassr
pr0ner
RevHempus71
Two of these three are Demons. If we vote out two of these three we will hit a demon which means we can get the 2nd the next day. Winning Strategy!

I'm sorry if I found your evidence to be just shy of the right conclusion.
I'm sorry if I have had you on my list the moment we ran out of 'Specials' to make sense of you silence.
I'm sorry if I am playing this game and decided to vote for you.
OK, you know what Newcastle... I take it all back.
I think it's RevHempus71.

Unagi - my displeasure with you is founded in multiple ways; in a sense you were nagging me to get it done......it's like you were impatient....i was working on it; and you kept on asking "is it done yet?" and now that you have it...oh, its a smear campaign!
it's like i cant sate you to get it done quick enough, but once its done...oh, its a smear campaign....wouldn't that get your goat too?
(there is another reason too...but will discuss that afterwards, i think you know what i am refering to)
also unagi.... in these games you will see the bad guys set each other up, argue in front of each other; its not outside the realm that they will point and accuse at each of em. CR is a VERY crafty player and has a lot of experience in these games. I really wouldn't put it past him to stage an argument.
We dont know for sure that Rev was contacted by Grund; he said he was....but we dont know. Grund never disputed because.....oh that's right he was dead.
It very well could be that Grund contacted someone from the bad guys...and then they said hey...let's have Rev say he was contacted by Grund..that will build instant trust.
You bought it didn't you?

As my lists show, Newcastle is fairly far down my list of suspects. I read his analysis and while I think he drew the wrong conclusions, I don't see it as a deliberate attempt to mislead. It seems very similar to his other posts while good (some of which I have also seen as misguided). I believe he just thinks differently than I do. All of this is subject to reconsideration tomorrow, but it's going to take a lot more than that to get me to vote for him today.
I could pretty easily switch between Lassr/Scoop/pr0ner today.
I think pr0ner is our best choice though. I can't remember which game it was, but Grund explained that he doesn't post so much because he has very obvious tells whenever he is Special (Good or Bad) and this was the way he compensates. If that is true, I would expect him to come out and be far more helpful once all the Good Specials were out (if he were Good). I've seen other games where he posts a lot...he is not mute and he knows how to use a keyboard. That has not happened in this case, however. He is still using short posts and I think it is to hide something.

You clearly wanted to be considered innocent, and well - in the interest of good spirits - I'll just do that for ya here. I consider you on the Good-Guy team. There you have it.
(strange game, indeed)
I'll leave it to the rest of you to pick who to test.
May as well be Revhempus.

just read through what i said is all. You've ticked me off, but not royally...thats hard to do. Consider me bad, good, evil, nice, jimny cricket, a walrus, whatever...it dont bother me...it's your thought process and your game play...
reason i am ticked...i felt like you kept on asking for it and asking..pestering almost...look back to this morning, it seemed like every 30 minutes...you asked is it done yet? then when it's done, its a smear campaign. I just dont like my intentions to be misconstrued like that.

I'd like to point out that I don't think I was as outwardly rude with my post, as you are implying with the 'F.U'Newcastle wrote:it's just i am frustrated Unagi, very frustrated. And its not personal in any sense...look at it from my view point. ...you work your ass off to get a huge project done...and then...you get rewarded by a big...uhm, F.U....i think you're bad....wouldn't you be frustrated and pissed off?
But. Yes, I can understand your frustration. And as you've said - your frustration with me is founded in multiple ways, so - I can see how this would just push you over the edge. (And I'm honestly sorry I've pissed you off so many ways in this game, I assure you, I honestly hold you in very high regard and you've always treated me and every other player so well in the past, that I'm honestly troubled that I've upset you so much.)
Now, regarding 'the game at hand'...
I've been playing this whole game this whole time. I've put just as much into this as you - just because you took 6 days off, and hence felt you owed it to us to compose a couple of huge posts, doesn't give your effort any special 'status', it's fair game - like everyone elses.
I know you aren't trying to say that I simply must believe you - but if you aren't saying that - what are you saying? I mean, you really just let me have it up there... and all because I wanted to test you first.
How's this Newcastle.
I found Lassr and pr0ner to be just as possibly evil. I wanted to test you First - because I felt we would benefit FROM YOUR ANALYSIS *only* if we could accept it as 'trusted'. You can not become trusted in this game until you are dead. You are a good first test for that very reason. (this was why pr0ner is such a horrible 'first' test... he's a better "Last Test", but I felt that one of the Quiet Players must be Balaam, and hence best to test you and pr0ner before we test Lassr.
There, that's that. I didin't feel you were obviosully 100% Evil, I felt this was the best order to test our untrusted in.

I disagree with your reasoning here (but then I guess you already knew that). Testing someone just so you can trust their analysis is crazy. He's not special and has no more insight into the game than any of us. If he's Good, then once he's dead, we'll have exactly the same information he had while he was alive. Why would we put any extra faith in his musings at that point?Unagi wrote:I found Lassr and pr0ner to be just as possibly evil.

And if you really believe in this point of view, why aren't Scoop and Lassr absolute tops on your list? Remus thought they were Evil, he's dead, and he's Good. Or maybe it should be a three way race between Scoop/Lassr/Newcastle since Grund thought Newcastle might have merit like 30 pages ago?
