CP Lockout Mafia - Game Over - Players Win!

[Lego Man]

Weird, I can see it now.

Before I posted my last post, I tried many times to view Hockeyguy15 history and nothing came up. Now it's their.

Probably a forum glitch....

Right?

CC is on my suspicions list, but he isn't my top candidate to vote off is (a review of my posts should make it clear who my top candidate is). If someone I'm suspicious of is getting a lot of votes against them, I'll join in. Now that CC has posted a bit more, I may rethink this vote. I haven't had a chance to review yet. I fully admit that my voting style is that I tend to be a joiner, because I think that the players moving quickly (and somewhat unpredictably) tends to be a solid strategy, especially early in a game. If I see votes accumulating for a guy I'm even remotely suspicious of, I'll join. You move quickly on them, and either they react or they don't, but either way it gives you a better read on them, as it did with both Blaster86 and CC.

It seems like you're suspicious of me primarily because I was one of 5 posters who voted for Blaster86 early on day 1? Here's what I would say are the problems with that:
1. It would suggest that I'm in collusion with other guys including street pharm and drake. Yet I advocated voting for frontrunners at a time that both street pharm and blaster were tied for the most votes (without advising people to vote for one or the other, although I did in a later post single out Pharm for having a high post count that disguised the fact he didn't really contribute anything beyond unconvincing self-defence).
2. After blaster reacted to additional people trying to lynch him, I was the first person (I think) to state that I now believed he was a player (and I do feel bad about my role in voting Blaster because I know that it lead to flameswin's death.)
3. I voted for Drake just 3 posts and 15 minutes after you, and many times before that I expressed to go along with voting for the low-voting players if we could get a large number together willing to do so.

I also know that you were suspicious that declaring our identities might play into management's hands, so I can also see you be being suspicious of me on the grounds that I was an early adopter and advocate of that strategy. And I can't really offer any defence against that, except that I believed then as I do now that it was a good strategy, forcing management to scramble and possibly reveal information.

I agree with voting Regulator based on the pile on of a proven player in Blaster.

This is a good point. I am good with either him or sliver, I am weary of CC, Timbo, and SP too but I agree that maybe we should weed out the ones not contributing as much and see if we can get a better read on some of the more active participants.

unvote

vote Regulator75

inactive poster
voted alongside drake on blaster who got piled on to
didn't switch off to drake when that train left the station


I think it's win-win

Either we get an inactive player and we eliminate another variable from my research/theory

OR

we get scum

I'm mostly suspicious of CC because hes Mark Schiefele. Every other supposed player is a superstar or Parros who is big in the NHLPA. Sciefele is just random. But if thats your role you kinda got the ####ty end of the stick, it just looks weird considering all the others

Or it could be that all of the other players are lying about their identity (duh) and I'm the only guy here who is being completely upfront and honest with my village.

Look if I do hang and Scooby Doo does the whole old Mr Witherspoon thing and tries to pull off my mask and it doesn't come off and I can't screech "And I would have gotten away with it if it wasn't for you meddling kids" because I'm hanging from a rope with a spastic foot dance, the PA is going to be down 3-1 .

Now if that sacrifice happens, it will allow the owners to become a little more overt because right now, they're sitting back, throwing in the occasional prod and letting the players eat themselves. But as they move towards that super majority, your going to be in a position of being picked off one after another after another and you won't be able to do a thing about it. Unless you get fortunate and the assassin levels the playing field for you.

Being down 3-1 might not sound devastating but in this case a 2 goal lead is probably the best lead for the Owners and a bad trailing position for the players.

Or, and its asking a lot, you can trust me as a low level player in the NHLPA and take a look at your actual top suspicious players like Hunting Whale, or Silver and take a chance that your going to take a step towards evening the odds and the vote table.

Just my two cents.

Now I'm gonna sit back here and smoke this here cigar.

A two goal lead is the worst lead in hockey. Every player should know that!

I do... I refresh the page while waiting for my code to compile, haha

[Regulator75]

You guys are barking up the wrong tree, I missed the group shift from Blaster to Drake.

Give me a break, I only have one ball.

Nice try Mr. Fotiu.....nice try....

[Hockeyguy15]

Nice of you to stop by, did you get a PM from management telling you to come post?

[Wood]

I guess I'll pile on to Regulator, hopefully we hit gold like we did with Drake
