Hydra Mafia (Day 4, I can't think of a clever title!)

[IceCream]

No... >.>

[Faranor]

Hey, Nik here. This is the only game I'm in now, so hopefully things will go more smoothly than they have been lately.

I agree with Faraday that the PP claim is scummy. Watching T&J on night two makes no sense. And since I'm already being voted by someone who I think is town,

Vote: Professor Paradox.

Parama, you should unvote me and vote for PP.

[bv310]

Day 4's Second Official Vote Count!

Faranor (L-3): Mr Smith
Professor Paradox (L-3): Faranor

Not voting: Chimaira, IceCream, Bowser, TomAndJerry, Professor Paradox

With 7 alive, it takes 4 to lynch or no-lynch.

Deadline is going to be set for Thursday, December 9, 2010 at about 6:30 pm.

[Professor Paradox]

Elli here.
We didn't see the end of day claim stuff then until later and i had and do have Tom/Jerry as a big town read sooooo.
And to the Masterspy meta stuff:
I didn't backtrack on my stance. I knew or think, whatever, that it was better for town to have it openly available who was in what hydra...but i thought it'd be more fun to screw around and that it wouldn't hurt.
Yeah.
Faranor is still scum.
Waiting for Mcav to confirm I can vote him...

[Mr Smith]

Mod, you are terrible. Faranor is voting PP, not the other way around

.

Though more votes on scum is never a bad thing.

[bv310]

Fixed, although I really don't think the insult was necessary.

[Bowser]

Mr Smith,

I fakeclaimed vig to draw the roleblocker's block.

What evidence did you have that there was a roleblocker in the game when you fakeclaimed vig?
~Tal

[Mr Smith]

I assume that there is a scum roleblocker in any closed setup I play, because it's pretty damn consistent that there is one. And better safe than sorry anyways.

[Faranor]

I don't buy Maclock not checking the thread. Elli, maybe but both of you? nah.

[Bowser]

Yeah... I am dubious too. The claims etc. at end of Day 2 were the most interesting thing that had happened in the game for ages and I'm amazed they could both miss it. But I know Thanksgiving is a big deal in US, so will wait for UT's thoughts before voting.

~Tal

[Professor Paradox]

I don't buy Maclock not checking the thread. Elli, maybe but both of you? nah.

I almost missed it Night 3. Elli ended up pointing it out to me. Thanksgiving is the most important holiday of the year for me (one of two times I go back home).

We are prepared for a VOTE: Faranor.

-ML

[Chimaira]

Vote: Professor Paradox

I just can't buy the missing of the claims. Tal is right in saying that was the most exiting thing that happened in the game. PP is trying to say that they sent in their action without checking the thread because Boswer's claim is right before the lynch scene. It's complete BS if you ask me.

Now the hop on the Faranor wagon with no support reasoning at all? Yeah. Busted scum.

~Sotty

[IceCream]

Frankly, I'm a bit unnerved by these two wagons in LyLo. There is at least one scum voting already, I just have to figure out who.

[IceCream]

EBWOP: by the speed these two wagons have formed in LyLo

to be more clear.

[Faranor]

what date is thanksgiving?

[Faranor]

why didn't you check the thread on night 2 PP?

[Professor Paradox]

After my Day 2 hammer, I had to rush off to class. I then flew back east on Friday the 19th. On the 21st and 22nd, I did an overnight trip to visit friends. I was not expecting a claim in twilight, and sometimes real life gets in the way.

-ML

[Chimaira]

Yeah, at this point I'd be shocked if Professor Paradox flipped town based on the night actions and the claims we've got here. Both players missing the twilight claims is a huge stretch but, fine, for the sake of argument let's allow that. There's no reason to have switched the watch from Crab Canon (unless there'd be some reason to think that scum would target the same people multiple nights in a row with a kill or some power role it makes at least as much sense to watch the same player you did previously provided you still think they're town.) Unless there's some thought that TomAndJerry was particularly pro-town and likely to be a threat to scum there's no great reason to think that's where a scum action would wind up. As Sotty7 said earlier it makes so much more sense for a scum watcher to have been watching a buddy with that action.

Past that at this point it should be clear that at least one of Mr Smith and Faranor is scum. Unless we're not really in LyLo (in which case we're worrying about this more than we need to) Faranor really should have been quick-hammered by scum by now if both were town. Of the two the safe money's certainly on Faranor but it's still a bigger gamble than Professor Paradox.

At this point we lynch Professor Paradox today, Chimaira will block one of TomAndJerry or Faranor (with the appropriate weighting of chances based on who's likely to be scum) and Bowser should track whichever of them (or Mr Smith just in case) they think is best (I trust Talitha's ability to make a good decision here) and we should be able to shut down or catch the kill and finish the game strong.

[Chimaira]

Mod: Could we please prod TomAndJerry

-Zorblag R`Lyeh

[TomAndJerry]

Mod : could you please not prod TomandJerry

I have a nagging itch that Mr. Smith is playing around with shenanigans for his "I'm vigging Bowser" statement followed by his claim of VT.

Lat hasn't been around for a bit, I'm waiting on him to discuss where our vote should go.

-Jerry

[Mr Smith]

I fakeclaimed vig to draw the roleblocker's block.

Don't worry though TaJ, both heads have you pinned as scum so it's okay to push suspicion on me

-Jerry

Holy shit weaksauce! We don't accept conspiracy theories (nagging feelings with no explanation and which aren't likely), and I think they are a way of scum poking to see if there is any interest in a mislynch.

VOTE TaJ

[Bowser]

Getting ready to vote Prof Paradox here, unless my senior hydra partner UT steps in or a compelling case is made for someone else. No lynch today is an auto-lose for town if there's 3 scum, correct? So we must lynch.

Much kudos to the scum as I'm not sure on any of you, but if you want my guesses at this point... PP-Chimaira-Mr Smith

~Tal

[Professor Paradox]

WAIT WUT.
SMITH IS TOWN FOR NOT HAMMERING US??

[Professor Paradox]

and so is bowser.
so who's left...

FARANOR, ICECREAM, CHIMMY, AND T/J.
