    I feel like I've spent way too much time in front of the computer screen, sitting down. That's no way to live. I want to travel and do stuff and meet people and create.

     

    :cry:

     

    (I'm a computer science postgrad student, not a Tumblr addict :heh:)

    I've been really suprised so far at the pictures. All of the places you guys found are furnished so nicely, with modern furniture. Is that normal, or N-Eers have good taste and high standards? :)

     

    Here, dirt-coloured floor tiles, rickety furniture, and highly uninspiring decor are standard, even in the "rich" places. At least, from all the places I've viewed...

    But that's only the dating culture we have here. In the US for example, it's perfectly acceptable to ask a stranger out on a date. You're not deciding you want to go out with them, you're asking them on a date. You're going for a drink or to dinner, getting to know them, then deciding whether you want to take it further.

     

    But what's the rush? He's going to continue to see her on the bus/train. Why not try out some smalltalk first to see if she's a nice person or not first? :)

     

    Though I may be biased as dates make me nervous. I always prefer starting out as friends, which is why I'm so outspoken against the friend zone nonsense.

    As magnus said, just strike up some small talk. If you're not comfortable with that then just straight up ask her out. It sounds more painful but it's over in a few seconds, don't have to think of an interesting opener, aren't constantly looking for an opportunity to instigate and don't have to continue the small talk.

     

    No! That's weird. They have no idea whether or not you have ulterior motives. It's weird to decide that you want to go out with someone without ever having spoken to them before...imo~

    Peeps, you did really well to survive on your own for so long. Thanks, ReZ :) Waiting for the next game!!

     

    Sorry for suspecting you the other day, Eddie - I really didn't get a PM telling me I'd been boosted like I was in the past, it was an honest mistake!

     

    No problem, it's all fun and games :D

    Unfortunately people will lose their jobs, how a company can be so blind to how many of their stores were overkill in a lot of towns and cities is beyond me.

     

    Well, they must have been doing ok if they've been open for a while, as in it must've made sense at the time to open so many. Recession, and all. I know a Game employee in England who just got made redundant, it's a bit more upsetting when you actually know people who are affected.

     

    I'm a bit disappointed that there aren't going to be any closing down sales though, I would've liked some GBA and DS games, or stuff as presents :( I bet the Game shops in Dublin are going to either be replaced by a) jewellery shops, or b) Starbucks /poker face

    Tales, I contributed by slapping down the last vote on Yvonne at the last minute. I've also been boosting the least suspicious people every night, according to everything that's discussed here. I also pointed out how Peeps doesn't really appear and questioned him about many things especially in the past few days, so I can totally believe Dohnut :p

     

    I mean, nothing else fits. I believe Jimbob is good due to him being Azelf, which is at least consistent with the write-ups. Dohnut is obviously good, though I was imagining a crazy twist where he's the remaining mafioso, yesterday/the day before that. Tales I think is good, as he's boosted me and has appeared in write-ups boosting people, with no negative connotations. I can't see how there are any negative connotations associated with me either. And Peeps...

     

    Voted very early on for both EEVIL and DuD too btw. The only reason I didn't vote Zell or Yvonne was purely because I was at work and I only get 30 mins break where I can actually check the thread and maybe post if my phone isn't being shitty with the internet.

     

    It's easy to vote early on for fellow mafia members. You can always hope that people change their minds, or that majority is never reached. It's the ones approaching majority that matter...but not the second-last one or so, as it's usually an attempt to look good.

    What if...one of us appears as town when Dohnut investigates us, like he suggested. That would mean that no one is cleared :|

     

    So it's either Tales or Jimbob. I actually suggest we vote for a no lynch today and let me investigate again tonight. It narrows it down even more. I can investigate. If Jimbob is the last townie he can protect me and I'll go for him or Tales. If I die, we know it's Jimbob because he should have been protecting me!

     

    What if Jimbob is killed? :(
