I can't separate votes from tone in my mind - Gaspar is just taking hold as superficiallly helpful, essentially useless. So again, other suspects just bobbed past him. I suppose I could argue that his scumminess is not related to his votes per se, but rather to his spells of inactivity.
Anyway, I think I need to reevaluate my list when I'm able to look a bit more dispassionately on this game.
Ultimately, I shouldn't have signed up for this game. I had been enjoying the lurker thread the last few games and thought it'd be fun to put myself in the mixer again. I had mainly been staying out because I had those angry outbursts in my last game and I was waiting until I had regained some emotional stability. I've done so (and I think I've not been overly hostile) but unfortunately I just haven't had the time I like to have to actually play.
Because of that, I've tried to do some different stuff - poking holes in theories I don't buy, pointing out some theories I do, my useless gambit yesterday with Injera, etc. But I haven't had time to do that read and reread bit which usually has me all over someone and finding scum. And ultimately that puzzle solving is what I enjoy, not so much the arguing in thread.
Anyway, I certainly acknowledge my voting record is somewhere between terrible and useless. But I have done my best to contribute as much as I can. That's all I'll say about me until the votes start flying tomorrow. Hopefully between now and then something will crystallize for me. Its weird because we haven't had a terrible game as a village, with 2 scum down and the Rowain thing working in our favor, but I can't help but feel like we're constantly just wading in mud.
Anyway, let's see what happens tonight and take it from there.
I've got some dirt on my shoulder, can you brush it off for me?
