I just got back from a baptism and subsequent party and I’ve been driving for five hours, but I’ll just get to this.

1955-1960, it’s a comedy

I haven’t seen this movie, but I’m familiar with it and it’s been on my list for a while now. Really should give it a watch.

I'm gonna buddy you this time, until reasonable not to do so. I'm tired of always being suspicious of you lol. If men don't trust each other this earth might as well be hell!

@ILikePie5
Let’s start off by claiming which 5 year period your movie is in, as well as your genre. I’ll start off:

1950-1955: Crime/drama

Next person to post is gay
Looks like Cerulean is... 0.o
Woe is me, for I am irrevocably and totally doomed. My soul is forfeit. My heart is shattered to a million pieces. My mind is degenerated to a mere husk of its former glory.

...

Anyway, Unvote and VTL Bullish instead.

I am not feeling good about Moozer either
Explain. Also if it’s the 20 year claim, I’m willing to narrow it down, it’s just I personally think 5 years would be too obvious. You’re call though.

What do you mean by this? You don't think Casey would include that as a "Classic" movie?
Casey is an atheist so I just assume anything christain is scummy

Alright. Not much for me to say so far since this has largely been about claims and soft claims. In that respect, while I can see the value in getting these claims, it’s notable that three people have already decided to go a different route with theirs and at least two others have given soft claims that pretty blatantly give away theirs (no, I won’t point them out). Not saying we should change tactics, but it’s noteworthy that the result has strayed from the original idea without any substantial pressure on those who have claimed.

Maybe that has more to do with Austin’s point about the value of claiming given the lack of connection between roles and characters. I know mine isn’t an obvious connection. I guess Earth and Cerulean are functioning based on that as well, or otherwise trying to draw attention to themselves.

I think by the end of this game I will embarrass myself with how few of these movies I've seen or even know about (can't say I'd ever heard of The Ten Commandments or Miracle on 34th Street before today).

but it’s noteworthy that the result has strayed from the original idea without any substantial pressure on those who have claimed. (WF)
The original idea is to create conversation and use that as a jumping-off point, yes? And also to try and force scum to come up with a fake claim immediately. I don't think we've strayed too far from that.

Casey is an atheist so I just assume anything christain is scummy (WyIted)

We get it you are miracle on 34th street. Who cares. I buy your claim anyway (WyIted)
So Christmas movies aren't Christian enough to be suspicious by that logic? I guess I buy it. Christmas is so commercialized these days...

I’m just noting the shift in attention as it’s gone on. Maybe it was organic, but I don’t think the original aim was to lead some to claim their characters that early without pressure. The original aim is still achievable, that much I get.

  2. Owen_T - 
  3. Moozer325: 1940-1960 —> Holiday
  4. WyIted - 1953-1958 —> Thriller
  5. Lunatic - 1950-1955 —> Crime/Drama
  6. AustinL0926: 1930-1935 —> Crime

  8. Bullish - 
  9. Cerulean - Spartacus - ???
  10. Earth - 10 Commandments - ???
  11. iamanabanana - 1940-1950

I'm going to call it a night after this, just didn't want to end the DP without updating the claims. I'll say that I think it's a good idea to focus on character claims, since scum can ask about two role claims.

Let's just lynch earth to test my theory and then moozer if my theory is proven true of Casey being so offended by good morals that she would make the only thing keeping the west from becoming ruled by Shariah law the Mafia in her game

Not always. GP is better known for that.

Both of you should be involved at this point. We're over 19 hours into the DP. To facilitate that:

I don’t really scumread Owen for this. It’s been pretty on-brand for him in his past few games. It might come to it that we just have to lynch on his inactivity, but I don’t really want it to come to that.

I have no intention of lynching him at this stage, but I am going to do what I can to spur his activity. He’s just pure neutral right now.

There's no point in pressuring someone who isn't here, but if Bullish pops in, I'll press him, although I think he'll comply.

Sorry for the inactivity guys. Life has been a bit hectic lately but I should be more active in later day periods.

My movie is a romance from 1930-1935. It's pretty obscure, or at least I've never heard of it.

Looking through the thread I have no comments thus far. Everyone is complete null.
