Yeah, seriously.

EDIT: So yeah, this first round was way more frustrating than it should have been.

- people voting based on a name change (let me be clear, if you're main reason was lbro's "reluctance" to vote... I can see that, but there were some who cited only the name change as their reason to lynch him).
- lbro not posting again to defend himself = no information whatsoever. Come on!
- assuming Ravenvii posts the lynching before lbro might actually post, it's up to the Undertaker to find out what we actually lost.
- if lbro was that important to the Villagers, the Undertaker has to basically out him or herself in order to make that known, which means we lose a useful Villager no matter what.

I really hope lbro is a WW/Vamp or at least a Goth, because we (everyone, including lbro) could have handled this a lot better and actually come away with some useful information, at the least.

I'm going to say this one more time... I think the Priest should really consider using their yes/no question tomorrow (or at least before the attack/infection immunity is gone after Day 3) should they hopefully make it through the night.
 
quick iphone posting (pardon my gibberish)
i agree with stonyC and we should make an effort to try to participate more (me included, but it's a busy peripd, classes, tests, grants meeitngs you know, the serious part of life).
i'll try to drop in more, meanwhile i'll stick to voting the least actives (unfrotunately i only have pne vote :D:D:D)

currently i think the dealine has expired? just as an info, is it kosher for the lynchee to speak past-expiration date but before the actual hanging? I would think yes, but just wanted to know.

finally, i am afraid the time deadline has backfired in terms of pace of the game (or are we just getting tired of them)
DP
 
Yes, it has been well past the 72 hours and I think it's really crappy that lbro just decided not to talk. lbro, if you had an important (good) role, you've really blown it for the rest of us.

P.S. Agreed on what Stonyc has said (above and below). And yes, where is the priest? The immunity is only for 3 days. We got to get prayin'.


(sorry, just a bit aggravated about the way this is going down.) The baddies seem to have quite an advantage in this one and for this not to be a slaughter the good people have to play it carefully and smartly as possible.

I have no issue with participation "rate" so to speak... I understand that people have lives (I do too, I've missed votes in previous games because of offline issues)... and purposefully having a low participation "rate" is a perfectly valid strategy for lying low, etc.

I just found this first round overall to be frustrating for multiple reasons... yes, it sure seems like the new deadline rules came to bite back at us... and I wish lbro nothing but the best of luck if he is dealing with offline issues. But it was kind of frustrating to see his last post, when he knew that he already had a couple votes turning to him, and that a deadline was working against him... why not just defend yourself then?

I think with this deadline you can't just assume people will "come to their senses"... you really have to be proactive in this game and at least try to be cognizant of when deadlines are approaching, so that you can do something if you have to.

If I'm coming off as too complaining, that wasn't my intention... so I apologize if you think that's the case. The deadlines in this game can really accelerate things so my advice to everyone is try to be proactive when you can.
 
Part of the hold up I feel is people have lock in their votes. Speaking up now just would bring people targeting you hard next round. People are afraid to say anything. I think maybe the 72 hour dead line is a little on the long side. 48 hours might be a better one.

Oh just a reminder to all the specials out there. You are allowed to send in your target early.

Exactly, I have no intention of changing my vote until lbro decides to defend himself. (Which is moot at this point, right? The time limit has expired?)
 
Hi guys,
So I guess I am going to be lynched?
Sorry for not posting for a while but my internet was down. If not, I could have given you information which would maybe make some of you retract your votes against me. Am I allowed to reveal my role now because ravenvii hasn't posted the results yet?

I would PM reviee about it. I am not exactly sure. I am willing to bet that the undertaker is going to scan you tonight though.
 
You're not dead yet, so I think you can reveal your role if that's what you want.

Don't worry about it lbro, stuff happens... it was just a frustrating round overall.

It may be too late in regards to the lynching but being as the official lynching post hasn't taken place, I would think you can and should (have) post(ed) your role. (it's not the same as say a dead seer posting their scan result.) If you are a value to the NON-dark side the sorcerer may wish to revive you.

(side note: sometimes I wonder if the sorcerer and the undertaker should be made aware of each other.)

It didn't even occur to me with technology being what it is now that the problem would be access to the internet. It's everywhere, so I assumed the silence for being either guilt or spite. Either way, just a frustrating round. :eek: :-S

Don't revive me. It would be a waste.
 
sadly I do not think you will be able to ask the question since is should be night right now but our host has been MIA for several days now.
I am starting to get kind of worried about him.

I would assume that he's just been busy as his 'profile' shows that he, or someone under his username, was last active at 8:45pm yesterday.
 
hope everything is ok with rvenvii
he has been MIA (or is it AWOL) for 3 full days.

players are going to just give up if we don't maintain a more regular pace.

yep because I think all of us were waiting for what should of been Fridays post and then we could move on to the night.
