Mini 1475: War in the Middle East Mafia (Game Over)

[waynegg]

Nah, it has its purpose. RVS, now that's shitty. Overplayed, expected, and leads to bad lynches later on from those who think they're an RVS fucking guru. Hostile resistance to an innocuous question noted. Thanks.

Wayne, why are you asking a question that can get people in trouble with the government?

[Purpkin]

RVS, now that's shitty. Overplayed, expected, and leads to bad lynches later on from those who think they're an RVS fucking guru.

Irrelevant to this situation as we're already not doing that, and it's a false dilemma to suggest that what you're doing is the only alternative.

Hostile resistance to an innocuous question noted.

That the question is innocuous is not relevant. That the question is

useless

is, as my (or anyone else's) response to it would not vary dependent upon their alignment this game. My refusing to answer is infinitely more interesting than that by definition.

But go ahead and tell me straight out what you're passive-aggressively trying to imply by your last sentence, notably that my response is somehow scummy in some way, and exactly why that is.

[waynegg]

And I'm right there with you Jester. I don't pay $250 a month for Internet and phone to make it easier for Big Brother to butt fuck my inalienables.

pedit- lol BRO. Hopefully you weren't being serious with that!

pedit2- I'm implying that at least I got a read out of your playstyle through the conversation. Paranoid, deep reader who plays his cards close to his chest. Check.

[BROseidon]

I'm afraid of Big Brother

It doesn't help that I look Arab and get pulled over in airport security all the time.

[Amrun]

So I didn't realize this game had started.

RQS is supposed to be germane in some way, however convoluted. This one isn't, AT ALL.

I have very conflicted opinions on Edward Snowden in real life, so there's no way I'm going to go into it here. But to make a long story short, if he believed in it enough to "out" it, he probably should have believed in it enough to go to jail for it and not talk to our enemies about it.

[Baezu]

I also don't feel comfortable discussing this matter in a mafia game. I will participate more once the topic has changed!

[waynegg]

What would you feel comfortable discussing?

[Baezu]

I don't care- we can talk about whether RVS or RQS is better, we can talk about NL day 1, we can even ask silly questions like "who's your favorite star trek captain?" (Mine is Picard)

[waynegg]

Spock- in the first new movie!

[Salt n Pepper]

VOTE: Wayne

serious vote is serious

Fine, I'll bite. Why are you jumping on the busiest wagon and calling it serious when there's been no activity? Pretty dodgy move there buddy...is your other head concerned ill read her?

[Purpkin]

Mara placed that vote.

But it's an RVS wagon before that vote; who cares how busy it is?

[waynegg]

This is like the quietest war ever. Must be a war of attrician. And there can't be 8 fucking Switzerlands.

Pedit- so restart RVS because somebody made it all awkward and shit? Or is she and I starting a trend?

[killerjester]

VOTE: Amrun

You can't turn your nose up at RQS and then not participate in RVS.

[Baezu]

Yay! Back to RVS!

[killerjester]

Why do you assume my vote is random?

[BROseidon]

The following is not game-related but still important:

Hai guys

VOTE: BROseidon clearly a terrorist

I know this is RVS and this isn't serious, but this is actually something that hits home pretty hard. I look Arab (I'm Armenian), and I've experienced a decent amount of anti-Arab hate/bigotry. Mostly it's getting pulled over all the time in airports for extra searching, but I've had people call me a dirty Muslim/terrorist to my face, and it really hurts. Even people doing shit like crossing the street when I walk by because I "look threatening" (read: Arab) stings.

So I'd really appreciate it if we didn't joke about stuff like this.

[Baezu]

cuz he reason you gave for your vote sounded like something straight out of RVS. It was genuine excitement on my part, though. I wasn't mocking you, your vote, or the fact that we're back in RVS.
