Re: Day 3: Aldax
For those who didn’t pop back in during the tail end of the extremely extended previous day, I’d recommend giving it a look over.

Re: Day 3: Aldax
Yes, do!
In all seriousness, though, the reason I'm "aggressive and defensive" is that your suspicion of me is made of garbage.
I also see that your suspicion of stdio was as deep as a puddle.

Re: Day 3: Aldax
So ICB,
You referenced your day 1 actions late yesterday.
I’m looking at the rnd post near end of day 1:
Other than fucking autocorrect (she’s a better lay than clippy, let’s be honest), what should be considered?
This just in: The broadcast wiring team can’t find their way out of a paper bag. If anyone has a really big paper bag and could meet me on the upper west side, I’d appreciate it.
More in a bit?

May the odds be ever in my fucking favor!

Sure.
There's a big difference between "bad play" and "definitely a wolf". Your laser focus on the latter when the former is a much simpler explanation is way more suspicious than ICB's defense of a mostly-unsubstantiated attack. You can talk about strategy all you want but a bad strategic decision isn't enough to justify the amount of heat you're throwing his way.

Two things. And a half.
First: I have already adequately explained that were I a vampire on day 1, what I did was extraordinarily dumb.
Second: initial suspicion of me on day 2 was for trying to figure out if a vampire killed Ravebomb. Then all the shenanigans occurred, including Ryvvn thinking that my play on day 1 was extraordinarily SMART for a vampire, and therefore I weighed as much as a duck, and therefore am a vampire.
And a half: would a vampire be this fucking belligerent?
If you or Ryvvn can adequately explain to me that I am a vampire based on the above, I'll lock in my vote and walk away from the rest of the day. Are you up for that?

Glad I wasn’t converted yet this game, since momentum is swinging my way, otherwise you all would just have assumed that’s the reason for my conviction.

Re: Day 3: Aldax
Between the two of you, I'd definitely believe Ryvvn is a human. Less sure about ICB, the self-vote is pretty meh for a villager on Day 3.
I'd be pretty worried that we're letting the vampires just sit it out, but I don't have a better offering right now.
Because I have to entertain visitors, I'm going to put in a temporary vote on ICB, but I'd rather look again later if I have a chance, and change that.
OMG can phone editing be any more annoying...

Re: Day 3: Aldax
Between the two contenders today I think I have to go back to my original vote yesterday of
#Vote for: Iron Clad Burrito
. It still goes back to that end of day post and that he didn't try and save himself. I guess I just don't quite understand not trying to save yourself when in a tie. And that's really regardless of if you are a human or a vampire. Though it does work if you assumed that one of Aldax's votes would count so you'd be safe so no need to try and save yourself.- Iron Clad Burrito

... So you're saying I eat it because you didn't like my play, and it was neither human not wolfy.
Interesting.
Oh well. My only regret is that you won't learn shit from this.

Re: Day 3: Aldax
I really don’t know what to think of what happened yesterday. ICB changed but did not go for the other wagon, instead voting a random, useless Singleton. Makes me think that he and Ryvvn may actually be both vampires, drumming up some drama to deceive us. I still think it’s worth looking at stdio too, but that’s another day.
I was considering pushing it back to a tie. Seems too risky since he isn’t even pushing for Ryvvn. Why not try to not die tonight ICB?

I don't think Ryvvn is a vampire. I think it's actually visi and one of either you or zark. I could be wrong, but I'm voting my conscience.
And I should die without my own help. If I voted Ryvvn, I count it at 4-3. I still lose.
You're wrong about me, too.

Re: Day 3: Aldax
I'd be more willing to try Visigoth or JRS. Personally I could see Visigoth as being too obvious of a target. I don't think everyone feels that way, but some must.

Making it 4-3 increases the chance someone else changes their vote and saves you. Let’s assume you’re human. In your mind, you’re the only one that’s sure of your innocence; surely playing to that out is worth the chance of someone else dying. If you vote singleton, there’s a 0% chance of killing a vampire. If you vote for the next closest, it’s possible that a vote will switch and save you, which means there’s a ~20% chance that a vampire dies, IF a switch happens. I like the nonzero answer myself, and I think most tend to agree.
I could easily buy that you’re both human also. I’ve seen Ryvvn bicker with regard enough to know how distracting human-human arguments can be, especially when he’s involved.
We’ve got an extension, so I’d like to hear more from

Re: Day 3: Aldax
I will not vote for Ryvvn just to save myself. I currently do not believe he is a vampire. I don't care if it's a bad play.
I could be convinced to switch to you, but I somehow don't think you'll go for that.

Re: Day 3: Aldax
I don't know what to make of build and collapse of the vote on Iron Clad Burrito. I don't think in a conversion game you play that antagonistically or call attention to yourself like that, so I don't think that he isn't currently a vampire but he might be a good target tonight.
Visigoth is on my "too obvious to convert" list, as well. (dferrantino is the other.) I don't think that designation is too useful after the first couple of days, though, so don't read that as a "I think they're safe" but more of a "I wouldn't waste my vote on them at the start of the game". We're past that now, so I'm okay with a

Re: Day 3: Aldax
I think what it all boils down to is this:
If I had said nothing and just left the rest of day 1 alone, no one would bother with me at all, except for vampires wanting me to stick around to endgame because I'm... me.
But I did, and explained it, and it was enough for people to just find a way to stay alive about day.
Edit: the last sentence brought to you by Gboard and work distraction. I don't even know, over an hour later, what that was supposed to be
