I don't think I've ever been more confused about what's going on with these shiny gem things. I think it's a situation where we'll get it as it happens (or I will, maybe some of you do get it already). For that reason I'm going to hold off picking up a gem (since in the rules it says they can be good or bad). Although I'm still not sure whether there's more than one of each colour or not. My interpretation is that there was only one of each gem, but that during the game as a whole there will be enough gems that everyone will be able to have one. I also do not see the WiFoM Meeko is claiming to have seen in regards to Maha's post. Meeko then said this: "Please" could imply "because I know exactly how I want to use it, and I need it, .... Immediately. Are you trying to suggest that perhaps some players already know what gems do? That's all I can infer from this, but then I have to ask how you came up with the idea? Or it could just be something like, get four black gems in a row, and you win. Diagonally. pretty sneaky sis.

[/b] first, i don't see the wifom from maha in his post. care to give the clueless a litte more analysis on how this conclusion was reached. second, i don't quite understand the logic between politeness and alignment. i mean angel hasn't used any of george carlin's seven words that i can recall. so i am clueless on this one as well. any chance for further explanation. third, ask, opal.[/quote] "Please" could imply "because I know exactly how I want to use it, and I need it, ....

Paul is your vote on me based on my play in this game, or based on our history? Grudges aren't good things to have, doubly so across games.

Paul is your vote on me based on my play in this game, or based on our history? Grudges aren't good things to have, doubly so across games. It's based solely on this game. Like you said yourself Day 1 often lacks substance in the way of reasons to vote someone. So far the most suspicious thing I have seen from anyone was your post at the beginning of the Day which I saw as a smudgind both Archangel and Maha. That was very early in the Day, but I haven't moved my vote, and don't intend to, because nothing more suspicious has occured. Your request that we both unvote, which was more just a media for you to point out that you haven't placed a vote and seemed to imply my vote was ridiculous because you haven't voted, is silly at best. Why would I unvote you? Why is my one vote so bothersome to you? As the Day stands right now, I have no reason to unvote you, and have yet to see a better reason to vote someone else. Further, I find the fact that you haven't voted yet to be suspicious considering how active and vocal you have been. I won't hold that against you right now though, seeing as majority of the other players haven't cast votes either.... the ones on the vote count being mostly votes made to test theories. To sum up, No I won't unvote you. No my vote is not based on a grudge, rather it is based on the state of this particular game so far.

I know it's early in the Day but I'd like people to take these test votes off by Monday. As it stands right now Meeko would be lynched with one vote. At least you voted him for a real reason but anyone getting lynched by one or two votes is bad for town. Peeker had a good idea but if people end up being lynched to test a game mechanism it sucks. I think they served a purpose but I think they are more dangerous as time goes on, and that real votes will serve the same purpose.

I agree with Archangel about the test votes needing to go, we have already been told that the gems won't protect against a lynch so I don't thinks it's such a good idea to test game mechanics like that, I am sure after a day or two we will have a better idea of what they do.

As far as hurting my feelings, I don't rally care who you vote for, myself included... but I found it odd that you hadn't voted.

I don't remember which one I voted for lol, and in trying to edit my kindergartner's spring concert video, I picked up a nasty piece of spyware that is making browsing very difficult. Off to fix that bug.

tossup betwwen chamelon since we have have only been talking about gems and clarifying their possible mechanichs since Day kick off and silver because she just apparantly figured out it kicked off. Sorry, I have been sick and sleeping much of the time. Seems to be the norm for me lately It would be a shame if someone was lynched just to test what the gems do or don't do, especially since we know that their effects resolve at Dawn and not during the Day - which means if they do affect votes the votes would have to remain in order to test that. I am, not surprisingly, confused by Meeko's posts - particularly in regards to Paul and who did and didn't vote. There seems to be some inconsistency there which will require me to go back and figure out. I will do that shortly but I need to eat something first (along with a handful of aspirin). I'm sure I'm not alone in finding Day 1 exceedingly frustrating and also in being confused about the gems - so I'm not sure why my questions about them are any more suspicious than anyone else's.

Ok - so I've read everything again and my confusion came from the quotes being messed up. Meeko at first said that he would remove his vote if Paul removed the vote he placed on Meeko - which Meeko may have done to point out the fact (in a roundabout way) that he hadn't voted yet. If the following conversation between them the quotes were messed up and I thought I read that Paul was saying Meeko voted for him when he hadn't, etc. etc. So much for that observation.
I think this is the first game where I *think* I might understand a smidgeon of what Meeko is saying! I'm probably wrong though. I can kind of see why he might question those who were instantly eager to pick up a gem even though the gems may do something negative. Is there something they know that the rest of us don't? That said I thought about picking one up too but I thought I was too late so resolved to not have one, while at the same time was relieved to possibly avoid any negative consequences that they may have brought. I don't agree that wanting a gem makes one suspicious though.

Too many. Now this vote I don't understand at all. It *sounds* like you're saying there have been games where players collect things and before you know they have all of something and you're screwed. How does this relate to Peeker putting the gem back? I've reinstated my Meeko confusion
