ep. 3

[Judge Sam]

so i've got at least 5 episodes left before the game ends that's cool. 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7. 7 is my sam lies week so at least I will get to do that. ooh I might not be able to squeeze in my favorite vote twist. we'll have to see what I can do.

maybe jason will last one more round and put us into 8 then i could do it.

one of the things might just be time. a LOT of the citizens are going hyper-active and playing hardcore. so are the citizens but:

alma was in a different time zone and doing exams.
donald might be in other games and has a busy period coming up.
pete is having exams and can barely play this last week.
jason plays wow at nights. ;_;
amelia doesn't have much time to play.
paris got a 12 hour a day job recently.

I really think it's this over activity on the citizens that is providing them the win. with the exception of amelia none of them told me they would have little time to play which sucks. =/

these spies are just poor. It is insanely easy to spot them. Now it's not easy being a Spy especially with super-activity and all this information going around. But still, these people aren't even pretending to be Citizens. A lot of them told me they were quite good at mafia in their apps but clearly they are not.

Jason - Jason is very good. Possibly not good enough to go from 16 to 2 but he'll do pretty well.

Donald is not very good. Not as bad as Jaya/Alma but he needs to pick a case and push it. Make definitive statements. Talk actively with citizens. Be uninhibited.

Pete... well Pete is yet to be seen. He hasn't done too terrible floating in water but he needs to kick it up five notches. The thing with Pete is he's always hedging what he says, takes forever to type a response, not just acting + being genuine. That's got to change. He has so many excuses and not enough time just being a goddamn citizen. If he screws up this AMAZING opportunity he's been given with basically handed the label citizen I'm going to be pissed.

I'm not sure with Amelia. In a way I kinda like it since I've always wanted a laid back spy but if the heat comes on her she needs to pick it up and i'm not sure that's going to happen.

Iris is okay... just way too generally suspicious. It's fuckin episode 3 you should not have legions of people thinking you are a Spy it is not that difficult to not get suspicion lol. The more I think about it the more I think she's a goner.


I don't know what it is with people. Clearly I failed at letting this selection of Spies take their roles, with them and Paris it was a disaster. While I know a few people in the game would have made excellent Spies, I don't know too many of them would... even the most Citizen-ish types, when you label them as 'Spy', completely clam up, lock themselves down, never rock the boat, and get themselves offed. I'm beginning to wonder if the game itself is at fault somehow.

argh, I'm just depressed that the Spies are so bad. It's fuckin round 3 and there's like 10 confirmed citizens. They ahve no chance in hell.

And they are alreayd doing the thing where they log on, check spy hq, talk once or twice, then just leave, never signing on AIM never pretending to be citizens never making cases. It's just so bad.

I've waited so long for this mafia game the spies aren't even trying to appear like citizens. =( I want to see the spy-thing brought to the next level. See new and creative approaches to being a Spy. And all I see is first-grade level newbie mistakes that I've never seen before because they are so basic towards even the worst of players. ;_;

[Judge Sam]

lol. FINALLY there are some citizens who are so atrociously wrong it is delicious. thank you omg thank you so much wrong citizens for extending this game out another week or two. <3

for context, kirsten has pretty much nailed donald. the other option is yvette. for some hilarious reason though it's not sticking. here's jenya:

O'RLY? ;D

More and more I'm laughing at Qi's statement that there'd be a total shock in store at the end of Spies 6. Maybe she really was from the future.

It's just insanely hilarious - to quote the great man himself - how things turned around after Iris was exiled.

[Mei Yun]

Felix also told me the Spies will win Spies 6. Creepy...

[Jason]

No chance in hell is correct, but here in Mofoland the Spies had a chance and took it!
