I also said yesterday I believe in voting someone off on day one and admitted that it’s going to be somewhat arbitrary no matter what given we have so little evidence of real scuminess. If we’re lucky it knocks out scum. If we’re unlucky it narrows down the crowd. Either way it gives us data we can use rather then idle suspicions. @Khscarymovie4 yeah rereading I flipped the names around. I voted for Ellie instead of Hera for three reasons. 1) Although I’m suspicious of her claim, Hera could actually be the miller. My final thought was to let the town investigator have a chance to see if she’s lying or telling the truth. Whether they did investigate her I don’t know. 2) Ellie was overly helpful. Sure there are many reasons for that but it seems a covert way to guide people to making certain conclusions. 3) Because Ellie had more votes. I felt if I voted for Hera it would split the vote and be ultimately a pointless gesture. As I do believe in a Day One Lynch. At that moment Ellie was closer and being that I already had my reservations chose her. I would like to add voting fifth on what people already were calling a bandwagon at the time seems a little like putting myself out there if I didn’t genuinely suspect Ellie.

I find the misuse of the term bandwagoning curiously effective at deflecting or diffusing away. Bandwagoning is unsubstantied voting in favor of whoever is leading votes or reasoning a vote by copying what others have said before. It’s a vote of appearances not of sequence. Voting for someone who already has votes isn’t automatically a bandwagon by default. (I subscribed to the forum for new topics and never get emailed. I didn’t even know day two had started so quickly, kudos Kintobor for keeping things moving)

Kintobor's Cosplay Mafia Day One: Super Mafia Bros
Forresto replied to Kintobor's topic in LEGO Mafia and Role-Play Games
Fair enough, but specifically what? Its kindve suspicous in its own right to simply quote a huge block of text and not even specify any part you find scummy. You must have your reasons so why not speak them then sit on the fence. -

My problem with the current pricing of battle packs is the builds they come with are typically useless. -

Good thing Harley doesn’t have a lasso of truth! *taps your can with mine in toast then chugs* You don’t wanna, wanna Fanta? Awwww Man...ah ~ I was going to wait for more discussion and eat cold pizza but given time is nearly up i’ll cast my vote. The claim of a miller, whatever that is (I don’t think I’ve ever encountered such a role), on day one is a bold one. Such boldness could be seen as a ploy to hide in plain sight. I am unsure as to how we should react to Hera Syndulla (StickFig). Eliminating her would eliminate any doubt of her alligience. Would that be worth more to the town then risking she is what she claims and not scum? I also am unsure of Ellie Sattler’s (LegoMonorail) “helpfulness”. In my mind that can either be benign or attempting to gain control of the situation. I believe in voting someone out on day one. It provides valuable data either way it turns out. Let’s also not pretend it’s mostly arbitrary. Hera has only two votes while Ellie has four. While I suspect Ellie more I must vote for who is more likely to be voted out for the above reasons. Therefore... Ellie Sattler (LegoMonorailFan) — I’d like to amend a sentence with a logical fallacy. Eliminating Ellie Santiss would eliminate any doubt of her allegiance. Would eliminating her potential threat be more beneficial to the town then putting stock in her potential ability? Especially if it’s true that any investigation will only reveal her as scum even if she’s not? Seems a very convenient disguise for scum to me. -

Kintobor's Cosplay Mafia Day One: Super Mafia Bros
Forresto replied to Kintobor's topic in LEGO Mafia and Role-Play Games
Day one voting is always erratic as there is very little information or evidence to go off of. Claims of people acting scummy today are strange to me. How dumb would scum have to be to act scummy today? If we vote someone out today let’s be honest with eachother and know it’s an arbitrary vote. The question is do we vote someone out? I usually am for it because even if we vote our someone innocent we narrow our field of suspects down. Plus it gives a better record of how people voted because a vote to eliminate ends with consequences, there’s intent in it as opposed to the typical meaningless ones scattered about just to not get a vote penalty. -

Imperial Patrol Troopers have the exact same chin cutoff though... @RogueTwo they’ve always flipped open. Either in the film or in a still from behind the scenes you can see the white bearded rebel trooper, the one that’s been retconned to be Captain Rex, in the armor with the faceplate flipped up. -

Red Dead Redemption 2 For many this is going to be far too slowly paced but I personally adore it. This might perhaps be one of the greatest open world games ever made.

Agreed. I wonder if the face flipping up feature is the primary reason we haven’t gotten one yet? I do think the court is still out on the Stormie until we start getting proper photos and not these bizzare mugshots. -

I’m just trying to figure out what’s on iden Versio’s back. Is it a mold or brick built version of the little probe droid she carries around? -

The middle one right? It’s hard to tell if the red hilt is giving the illusion of a robe piece or if it has a robe piece. Looking at it again it looks like two of the guards have the graduation cap style helmet and the other has the pointy kind from the Throne Room set. -

At this point there is no legitimate reason for them to not include printed legs on a fig. Especially at current prices. -

Has anyone put the Praetorian robe legs on an Imperial Guard? It helps immeasurably so! Thank you!

I’m curious if like he Stormtrooper we’ll get a new mold for the tie pilot helmet? With the Junior Tie Fighter and Inferno Squad Battlepack there would be no greater opportunity then now to introduce one. -
Kintobor's Cosplay Mafia: Sign Ups
Forresto replied to Kintobor's topic in LEGO Mafia and Role-Play Games
I would love to join. 1) Yes, I’ve played before. I’ve been on the winning team once and was alive, otherwise I’ve died each time on a losing team. 2) Yes I’m available. 3) I think i’d most likely cosplay as Captain Kirk from Star Trek of course or Thrawn or an Imperial Officer from Star Wars. -

Im convinced it won’t be that dissimilar from the Mimban or even Patrol Trooper.
