After a night's sleep, I'm uncertain as to my position on this game. While I am still aggravated by the setup or lack thereof, it's unfair for me to chicken out, and a lot of my earlier anger was probably fuelled by fatigue. I'm wondering if all the uni stress is leaving me in a fragile state, and a game like this is enough to make me snap at its worst.
In spite of all the BAAAWWing, there's still people that are figuring out the game and playing it. They are winning.
I find this utterly hilarious, since on Day 1 the people who were making an active effort to figure out what was happening and play were the people who were LOSING.
In my mind I was doing something about it. I did the best I could to try to get people to think about other things. Just because it didn't work doesn't mean I wasn't trying.
Let me give an example of the problem. This is like you saying "Hey, guys, we should stop using coal and oil because we're killing the planet's natural resources and giving off massive carbon emissions" and so on. But there's no mention of an alternative, and at least coal and oil give us SOME energy. Why do you think we've been using them for so long? Because we haven't quite figured out anything better and safer (I'm looking at you, nuclear power).
tl;dr Noting a problem is not trying. Finding a solution is trying. (in before hypocrisy)
In theory, the nk/extra lynch is a result of us lynching the mod and getting kicked in the face. I have no idea where the secret votes were coming from. They could be a result of deadline approaching, a result of outside forces manipulating the ghost vote, or just a way of screwing with everyone's minds (Notice during the lynch that both of the secret votes that were on me disappeared).
So in order to teach us to no lynch, Pesco gives us a situation which makes it logically impossible to no lynch?
Plus that's a stupid moral if it IS what he's aiming to preach. 'In mafia, it's okay to NOT PLAY THE GAME for the sake of being friendly!'
