he says this after fluff, no mention of gameplay anywhere here.

really narwhal? REALLY?

I found it rather rude.

Another one who seems to know someone well enough to point out their sex.

it gives a tell as to how people are playing, when someone is deliberately trying to appear less intelligent (no offense, thats just what is implied by bad spelling) it could be a play to appear as less of a threat. It always could be legit, and even if it's not I would hope that someone wouldn't get voted for trying to post differently then their normal style, especially considering the fact that we have no idea who each other is

that is better. but do you really think that just because some one can't spell that they can't think logically and wuold be less a threat?

nope, as I said, it's implied by bad spelling/grammer. IMO it can make you APPEAR less intelligent.

maybe you cuold also explain why its relevant to the game enough to keep in mind.

Yep, and I'll do it with small words. It's to early in the game to know what means something and what doesn't. IMO, what's great about day1 is that nobody takes it really seriously. The things we learn on day1 tend to mean more in conjunction with other things that may or may not happen down the road. It may never come to anything, but it's worth hanging on to just in case.

I honestly just found this funny. Irony is kind of my thing.

how does less intelligent parlay into less logical? it might even help to be less intelligent in that you would be less inclined to over analyze some things.

Wow what a mess. To be honest, the biggest thing to go on will be tonights vote... Which we will have to keep a close eye on, especially if it's close.

 

[[AC] wing nut]

scoop or narwhal, which will get my vote

scoop- not sure why they think bad spelling and grammar equates to less of a threat. maybe some players on there team fit in this category and its a protection ploy if some of us others that are less intelligent are lynched first

narwhal- just spreading untrue rumors about nemesis wanting us to stop posting

 

[[AC] wing nut]

I vote to lynch Scoop
for reason stated above

I don't get the whole spelling thing. Someone misspelled "would/wood" I think it's way too early to even know if it's important or not. It's something to keep in miind, but in no sense is it a tell.

I also don't think the Spanish is necessarily a scum-tell. I never thought there were hidden messages, someone else made that up. I didn't intend for it to become a huge point of contention. However, just to be clear, I do think it a viable strategy for a scum to try to get by a day without any real input. The longer it goes on when things begin to get more serious, to me it will become more interesting. I'll offer a compromise though... if you post in spanish, continue to post an english translation also. If they're all jokes, let us all in on it. It seems only fair.

Hey...just want to apologize for starting the Spanish talk...didn't really think much of it, the name is Spanish and it had been mentioned. I had lunch at a mexican restaurant, nothing was really going on (as it was day one) and I though I'd ask if they liked torta's...just because it is "spanish". Had no intentions of continuing to post in Spanish just having fun for a moment on day 1.

OMG, can anyone remember the game a while back when everyone was posting in Morris code!!!

Now I need to read through everything again, mainly what stands out to me the most is the posts pointing out trivial things (like wood), and those throwing names out there.

Doomsday and Narwhal... be quiet.

@Narwal: Ah, I see. This one. This is after you and Doomsday were talking about FF1, Fruit, and who was who. Meh, IDK why he would say that. Well, you answered my question, thanks! Doesn't seem all that important to me.
