I dont suggest we vote anyone at the moment. I dont like throwing names around unless I have a reason to do so, and right now, I dont. So, I can't answer your question Jackie.

So, are you suggesting a no-vote this round? If not, how would we decide who to vote if no one mentions any names or gives reasons as to why? I highly suggest we do "throw names around." If we don't do that, and no one talks about who we should vote or even places votes, we won't really get much input. You are, of course, entitled to hold back if you wish but I don't think it's fair to expect everyone to play the same way. In fact, I'll go so far as to say the most dangerous thing we can do is keep everything to ourselves, not throw any names or ideas out there and just hope something pops up that we can use.

PS - I know Kenya posted last round that Deet said he was busy with studying or finals or something. I don't know if that's still the case or not. I would like to hear from him, though. I'd also like to hear from Dogdude and PhocQ.

I never suggested a no vote.

I also dont expect everyone to play like I do. I am emotional and don't like to step on toes. Most people are not like me and I learned that a long time ago. You simply asked who "I" suggest and "why". I dont have a name nor a reason so I am not just going to throw something out there blindly.

I dont speak for anyone but myself.

I've been dealing with computer problems and my ipod crashing for a little (computer is now fine, ipod has to be completely erased ) and come to almost 3 pages worth of stuff to read lol, you guys are busy, which I like cause it gives us more to go on when trying to figure out who is evil and who isn't.

That sucks about internet problems for anyone who gets them, I absolutely hate it when I cannot get online.

So I'm not gonna be online at all tomorrow, might make it on early morning but that is all as I am going to visit a friends for the night. It is an hour away and I haven't seen them almost all year long so not gonna worry about coming on here but I'll be back on Sunday at some point. Just want you all to know now.

I know I read some things I wanted to respond to but can't remember what lol, dealing with my ipod has made me want to rip my hair out lol. I will respond soon though

Jackie, don't get me wrong I see where you are coming from in your personal experiences with Tiff and how they didn't mesh within the context of her absence, but from my point of view it takes a little bit more than your word for it to accept it. If I didn't grill you on it I would never have been able to settle it in my mind. I am never sure what to think of somebodies motives when bonding relationship matters come into the game; I don't have strong friendships with anyone in this game (not to say I don't like any of you, it's just we haven't had a chance to 'click' yet).

At the beginning of the round I felt like my investigation would have been well spent prodding in the direction of last rounds controversies rather than just dropping it. Kenya had voted for Pete, and I have other suspicions and voting desires, but they need to come one at a time, you just happened to be first.

As for misrepresenting you and mincing your words, I never intend to, it's just comes with the territory of reading words on a screen. You may type them with intended inflections, but not everybody will read them like that. I still feel you were 'defending' Tiff, and please understand this time that I am using the word not in it's strictest definition, I mean you were protecting her presence in the game over matters which were not as clear to me as they were to you, with you having a closer connection to Tiff than me. I couldn't ignore that so I explored it with in interrogative vote, and you responded which is what we need.

I still may vote for you, but for now
I will retract my vote for Jackie Frost.

In regards to internet troubles, I will refrain from voting DragonSnow for now, he already has votes, and Pete has been giving responses to his pressure vote too, so I guess I will mull things over until I am done with work and see if I can come up with anything then.

Okay, thanks for clarifying.

Okay, if Dogdude or Deet come on and tell us they are also having internet issues I am going to start thinking that the Grinches are causing all this and start looking toward people who NO internet problems...oh wait, that would be me. :p

JK but I am really sorry so many of you are having issues. I hope it all clears up for you.

And derB, I appreciate that and I understand you need clarification and reasons and I am always happy to give them. Well, maybe I don't always seem happy, lol. But, in any case, I actually welcome the questions because at least it shows you're thinking and trying to play the game. Oh and congrats again on VP!

I have a craving for egg nog and the deadline is my oldest son's 17th birthday YIKES

Anyway lol

Anyways everyone, I've been having these rediculous net issues.

Jk, lmfao, in reality, I've just been really zoning out on this stuff, but I read through what you've been saying.

Anyway, first off, I know for a fact that Tiffani really did have internet issues, or at least I know that it didn't just fall together, just based on the fact that yes, I was told in the other game she self voted, and I don't see why she would go to that extent, just to have an upper hand as baddie. Tiffani seemed really helpful in Jackie's mafia game, so that's why I was reluctant to vote her...I don't see any more explanations to WANTING to vote her emphatically, than I do to being indifferent or not voting her personally, Kenya.

As for my suspicions, as Brant pointed out earlier, my main one expressed, and still had, for the most part has been DragonSnow. I still think that "bigger threats" just seemed more like a bad guy trying to cover up himself, then anything a good elf would naturally have the inclination to say. That's just me though.

I also do think though that Kenya is being suspicious as well, and I wouldn't expect her to be voting the way she has been. Normally it seems to me that Kenya, UNLESS attacked, isn't very antagonistic, and is agreeable. It seems to me like she's been a little more accusive here, trying to group other people right away, and raise people's eyebrows, when frankly, I don't think there's been significantly much within what she's saying to raise a brow at.

I'm torn between putting my vote on EITHER Kenya or Dragonsnow, as they both make sense to me, and are both viable options. I want to hear more of what Dragonsnow has to say before making my mind up between the two, or perhaps, hear something else that really makes me feel something else, but for now, I really don't have too much more that's strongly resonating with me.

Hey everyone! I had a long exciting day of helping out at Nationals testing for EMT's down at school. I got to be a patient, and get moulaged. It was pretty awesome, they gave me a compound wrist fracture, due to me falling off a roof!

Moulage = makeup

None of this was real, including the roof scenario, but I had to act like it was, and they had to treat me appropriately.

That aside, I have 4 pages of material to go through here, so I'll get back to y'all afterward

OMG finally DSL again.. I remembered that my mom moved a bit out of town and she has a DSL modem that she can't use because only dial up works out there so I asked to borrow it until our new one comes in yay I'm back in action!

okay i want to start by saying sorry i have not posted, but we got a modem up and running for the time being before we get our new one in the mail, damn Internet problems!! haha. i also want to say, HOHOHO, i know PETE is not innocent, so i think we should all act on this one and read back onto who pete was siding with/defending, and pass me the ornament, and lets kick some righteous grinchy ass

i vote to lynch pete

Oh oh oh? I can indeed dig it.

I vote to send Snowy Pete to ice jail.


*edited to keep the game flavor*

cheers eh

Oh wow I guess Brant's gut was right after all!

I'm glad I've already voted that way.

lol yep, so who else could have evil roles?, hmmmm. *thinks hard*, any suggestions?

For you DragonSnow -->

If you are right, which I am pretty sure you are at this point, I would maybe look at those who would have incriminated you. I realize this is a double edged sword, but at the same time the idea that you have a role is a mighty incentive to get you ice-jailed to diffuse the blame for doing so.

I always believed in you!! extra -->

Dasher Deet, I've already explained why I voted for Tiffani, as for being more accusing or whatever.. I watched Mafia and saw a lot more of that, so I'm trying to not hide anything and be as honest as I can be. I don't know what more I can do to prove anything to you aside from trying my best to not hide anything and state any and every opinion that I have.

mmm cookies lol, but you know im willing to take one for the team...and i dont mean in a dirty way...

Okay then...I think it's safe to say you wouldn't be saying that unless you are completely out of your mind Dragonsnow.

I retract my vote for Dragonsnow

I vote to send Pete to icejail

ya im crazy....sometimes..not all the time.. only sometimes.. i think

Okay, wow. I was right about Pete? So if Pete isn't evil, we have some serious questioning to do tomorrow. Those of us who are still alive.

I retract my vote from DragonSnow.
I vote to send Pete to Ice Jail.

Since this round may end up finishing before morning and before I get to post again, choose wisely to those of you who have night roles.

Deet when did you vote for dragonsnow in the first place?

Lol @ Deet retracting his vote from last round.
