I'm really effing behind, and now everything I do will be seen as bandwagonish because I won't be the first. Ah well, I screwed myself that way.

I missed all your updates! I'm sure you'll get back into the swing of things quickly though.

Well it seems Yvette cooked up a massive con in the first episode and let in 4 others (ariel, iris, robert, ....someone I forgot) in an attempt to save herself and Robert from Exile. They decided to fake cases against each other to appear to be just one exile away from leaving anyways, so the spies would not bother. However it didn't work so now they're posting it public. If anything the chat logs show just how willing everyone is to trust and follow Yvette while I don't want to give her a free pass.
I'm not gonna vote for Yvette this round though, I think Gretchen's the biggest target with her horrible case against roxy and general sketchy play

I'm just angry because Yvette's plan seemed a little greedy or selfish, confusing the town with fake cases AND abusing Ariel's power (forcing her to save yvette or robert when there may be another cit on the line). Plus it's the worst kind of self-preservation that citizens should not have to resort to. No one bought their stupid cases anyways, they almost unanimously picked Callahan, a Cit, and then Rob got the big Imprisonment for catching Almathea. Gooooooo team.
Of course I'm not on Jenya's side, because she seems to just be quoting/making up quotes for irony or humor in the thread, and not making a case other than "I'm bitter" or "nuh-uh." She's next on my list of exile targets.

I've told you how much your confessionals rock right? I mean geez 21 posts in the first Episode! That's crazy. Plus you posted tons of convos too. I'll try and comment when I can but it's tough since I can't really say anything meaningful but I'll try harder. Thank you so much for posting all these - I like your rapid fire style. It updates me all the time so I know the latest Spies news. You know I wonder if I could get these things to like go into an RSS feed and text me these updates on my phone so I could get the latest just as it happens haha. That would be pretty cool. Anyway looking forward to how the game plays out for ya. And keep me updated on that reality tv job thing that sounds really intriguing.

Georgia is acting really lame and weird, just like not responding to things. Someone is calling her out, and then all she posts in reply is that she's waiting for her questions to be answered. She doesn't re-post them, and she doesn't defend herself. With HOURS before exile! What the hell?
And now Rey's begging me to vote on his new Pete case, which has NOT been in the burg at all, and aparently he's asking around one-on-one to make his case, which is weird. He'll reach EVERYONE by posting his case along with his vote. He also says it's to prevent being imprisoned for being a strong cit, because if he's wrong he'll stay, and if he's right he'll get one more before being imprisoned.
This is making me think of the whole yvette v robert thing. People are being really selfish in this game as far as wanting to hog the spotlight, then mislead the group or minipulate them to stay in the game by appearing less pro-town. It's all very weird.
Additionally I haven't been using my power. I don't think any lurkers have been worth a vote, although honestly pete could be considered lurking and I may get the investigation then. But I don't really wanna vote him just for the investigation, especially since there's gonna be hell to pay for being a late bandwagoner (maybe rey's setting me the fuck up).

I have a real problem with confrontation aparrently. Actually I knew that, this game just brings it up once every few days and then I want to just stop talking to everyone and leave the game for a bit X.x.
When people throw things back at me, even if true, I get all huffy. Also people like Rey and Yvette act like players like me that don't have hundreds of games like this under our belt aren't worth shit sometimes! I dunno, they throw around their high activity levels, bitch about "oh no, everyone trusts me and thinks I am a citizen and woe is the life of someone as awesome a townie as me" and I just am sick of it sometimes.

And if rey starts acting fishy I will shove it in his face and think about tonight when he tried to get me to wagon onto his little Pete train in a panic.
Just saying...it could happen

Well that was another super successful exile! Maybe Sam let toooooo many complete newbs in So I once again didn't vote for the exiled spy, which makes me uncomfortable as I feel like the only one not to get ANYTHING right so far. BUT I did -not- move my minus vote onto Georgia like Rey wanted me too, so I didn't hinder the spy lynching! She was my number two suspicion at that point, but since I hadn't posted it in any forum I'm probably going to be asked about it. But hey, I didn't cave into Rey just because he's a super-I'm-so-citizen-and-look-at-me and we got a spy without his 11th hour bandwagon! Oh, and TorinTrek keep asking me (and others) why we weren't reacting in chat. I understand you want to watch, but I feel like typing all up in the exile chats is irritating most of the time. How much will typing "lol" or "WHATT" or "uh oh" every two seconds, like some of my teammates, help anything? Plus when we do the events I kinda go into "watching tv show mode" and just want to see what Sam's gonna do. I guess there's no facial-expression reaction shots so it's kinda rough on the spectators, but hey, they'll be reading this in a few weeks so there

I want facial reaction shots! I was so sad that I didn't have you guys set up webcams to record your reaction when the BIGGEST SURPRISE OF ALL EONS was revealed that it was Jason/Pete at the season finale. (Such a mind-blowingly big surprise will never happen again as long as I host lol.) But if I asked you to set up webcams you'd think something surprising was going to happen and it'd ruin the affect. ;_;

That unintelligible gibberish you see Ellis type at that moment is caused by the heavy impact of dropped jaw hitting keyboard; and come to think of it, no keyboard of mine has ever undergone this much abuse since I snorted orange juice all over it during the Robofifi episode of Spies 1...

Pete shocked me more than Jason - the moment Jenya voted for Levi, I knew emo-kid was a spy, because I was sure that Kirsten wasn't and it meant Jenya and Levi couldn't be partners.

My predictions for imprisonment were Jason or Pete and my prediction on the last 2 Spies were you and Mirela. I couldn't have been more wrong.

Everyone always wants to Imprison Trey's characters, even when they're Spies!
