Mini 1730: Suikoden U-Pick GAME OVER

[Ranger]

Really feeling icky about LQ...

I share the sentiment, but I feel comfy voting BRantz for now. I'll switch if I feel like it later.

[Ranger]

Actually, in hindsight: I'm seriously scumreading BRantz, but my LicketyQuickety scumread is much stronger, so I will switch.
VOTE: LicketyQuickety.
I also have my eye on a couple other players, but it's so minor that I don't consider it worth pursuing.

What's this marking thing?

My little secret. ;)

I have a question. What are you doing?

My brand of content. This is how I enter games for fun.

^ my condolences.


Anyone here?



Talk to meee

Sorry for your loss Drixx.

I am here.

Thank you, both of you. I suppose it was inevitable as I aged that this would start happening, but two close family members in the space of less than two months is a little hard. I wouldn't have posted but it's super early in the game and I am likely to vanish from the hydra at some point once all the various things in my life I need to rearranged are handled, and I figured it would be good to let folks know.

The scary part, for this particular situation, is that the uncle in question also had a spinal injury, although his was much worse than mine is and he took very poor care of himself in the 18 years since he was injured, and was in poor health. That said... the event which caused his stroke is a syndrome that most people with spinal cord injuries, including myself, deal with to some degree or another. It is called Autonomic Dysreflexia and is caused by the autonomic nervous system essentially kicking into overdrive while the brain's attempts to stop it get blocked by the nerve damage. One of the main dangers is that if the trigger cause of the dysreflexia is severe enough or lasts long enough without being relieved, it causes arterial and vasoconstriction (makes the blood vessels squeeze tight) which causes blood pressure to rise.

I have had one case where ER personnel refused to listen to my warnings and a problem that could have been fixed they left hours until finally it spiked my BP to ~ 275 over 170 or so. That was almost 6 years ago, and the incredible pain in my head for those few minutes until they finally took me serious and got the problem fixed ... I was pretty scared that was it for me. My uncle had a similar thing happen, only the BP went up into the 300s, and they couldn't get it under control and finally the pressure caused essentially one entire hemisphere of his brain to hemorrhage.

So it's simultaneously grief plus a little bit of being scared. I manage my condition very well, and I am super careful, but even so I experience the problem probably a couple dozen times a year, with one or two times the duration goes on long enough that it starts to be concerning.

This post is probably a gigantic overshare, but I've never really been embarrassed about my condition, and as strange as it seems ... the player list (and mod) for this game is almost entirely people I have no problems sharing this with. Thanks in advance to whomever feels like sending prayers, well wishes, good vibes or whatever my way as I deal with this. I will do my best not to leave my poor hydra partner stuck alone for any longer than absolutely necessary. I'll probably be around as much as I can when I'm done re-arranging my schedule before I drive the 1,200 miles to say my goodbyes to a 2nd close relative in as many months. Mafia has been kind of therapeutic for me since the first one, so hopefully it will help for the 2nd.

I hope it goes without saying that this post is entirely OOC and should not be considered at all when reading our slot. I think everyone I know on the game list wouldn't go there, but better safe than sorry.

*hugs Titus*

How

I didn't like BRantz's entrance into the game. It felt forced.

I never claimed the scumread was rock solid, you know. :P

[LicketyQuickety]

@Ranger,

I don't like you Scumreading me so early. You got a reason?

[Ranger]

I don't like you Scumreading me so early. You got a reason?

The majority of your posts have had this unnatural vibe about them. If I felt like explaining in detail greater than that right now, I would have done so already, but generally you'll find I'm a fairly lazy early-game player.

[FireKari]

Also, Weirdo Elb noted.

I what m8?

I think he was talking about how you keep wanting votes put on you.

But now we are out of RVS and thats because of you!

In other news: Elbirn is awesome!

I don't agree with your read on Lickety at all, and you just jumped on my

Unsure about list.
Which technically most of you guys are on, but Ranger has a special spot.

[Titus]

Hmm things to think about happening recently but quick judgments may not be best Elbrin. I tend to favor a more literal approach as things happen to me during the day.

Do you see where I went with LQ's role fishing?

@Ranger, your move to LQ feels slimy to me.

@LQ, Are you American?

K, go ahead and vote me. I got nothing to hide.

[LicketyQuickety]

Weird question Titus, but I think the correct answer is that I am from the US or the States.

[Ranger]

@Ranger, your move to LQ feels slimy to me

Deal with it. I'd be there no matter how many votes were on LicketyQuickety because he's my strongest scumread. That others beat me to the punch is unfortunate, but irrelevant to my rationale behind voting there.

@Titus 135

Im...not sure. It's 3am here and maybe I need to sleep and reread that to make sure I get it

Maybe I am reading 107 wrong but the assumption you're making is incorrect and thus fallible. Take a more literal approach as things happen during the day.

If that's not clear, I will just give up trying to communicate that point.

[LicketyQuickety]

Why the heck have I been marked?
Reading up later once I'm not about to cycle 13k.

Wgeurts was the 3rd person to ask about the mark. They've been following people.

VOTE: wgeurts

[Painbringer]

I don't think Wgeurts was even reading the whole thread when he posted that.
That vote seems pretty silly IMO.

Come on Lickety.

VOTE: Titus

We should lynch her before she goes all VCA on us.

Yeah so actually

This is a really good vote, and relies on

1. Removing a useless tool that can be manipulated by scum
2. Knowing that titus will utilise said tool regardless of alignment

UNVOTE:
VOTE: Titus

FTFY

Probably not planning to sign posts unless people get

really

salty about it. I'm interested to see if people can tell us apart. This is actually my first time hydrating so i'm quite excited.

Also, sorry to hear that Drixx, you're having a rough year.

[Ranger]

Wgeurts was the 3rd person to ask about the mark.

OR, wgeurts logged in, found a message in his inbox from Varsoon, read it, and it said he was marked, with him coming straight to the thread to ask why, without knowing I had claimed responsibility.

I don't think a town player would be this dense.

[FireKari]

Every post which has been or will be posted in this thread already exists, and is searchable online via the Library of Babel. So many possibilities and variables.. We find ourselves pondering which words will have been "chosen" in the worldline this version of us lands in.
