Zachtown in the mountains (Game over TOWN WINS!)

[Benmage]

i revoted him because of benmage, though, and i would definitely not follow benmage if he was town and i was scum

Following benmage town-when scum is a winning strategy...benmage has a weakness for buddying...shhhh

[Benmage]

Unvote vote Empking

Mina tomorrow if this isn't the win.

[Mina]

Goddammit, Benmage, that was supposed to be my hammer. I'd have liked to say I was on one scum lynch this game. <_<

Actually, another question in case this game doesn't end. before thread lock--Locke, what's the catch you were hiding on Elmo?

[jasonT1981]

Hmmm, why did Ben hammer before Sotty had a chance to answer Minas question?

[Mina]

I'd also have liked to hear an answer, but Ben definitely isn't scum, jason. By your question, were you implying that you find it suspicious, or just a bad move?

Okay, I had a huge post typed up explaining what my motivation was for suggesting the speedlynch plan, but since you're online, might as well ask this first: jason, if the game doesn't end with Empking's lynch, would you agree with a speedlynch-Mina-Elmo-Percy-Kaleidoscope plan? What about lynching Mina, Elmo, Percy, and Kaleidoscope after lots and lots of discussion? Any objections?

[Furcolow]

jason why are you worried about player interaction in relation? like... they can't both be scum lol

[Furcolow]

any last words empking ya scum?

[Mina]

You know what I don't get?

Last vote count: 11:45 AM.
Ben's hammer: 11:48 AM.
Time right now: 1:11 AM
Mina's heart rate: 205 BPM

The worst is that I'll have to stay up until about 3:30 AM because no one's around to watch my soul-sucking fast game at the deadline, so instead of just going to bed and allowing myself time to decompress, I'll be continuously refreshing this window.

[Benmage]

Yeah I was hoping Zach was still here.

[Thor665]

Mina - there is nothing at this stage to be super freaked about. Emp was the lynch today barring someone claiming scum and self-voting. Emp is either scum and we've won, or he isn't and there will be *plenty* of time in this game for everyone to ask 3,000 questions..

[Mina]

(Apparently I don't know the difference between AM and PM.)

The questions to Sotty and Locke are actually good to have answered before night, for obvious reasons. I think Locke is in the UK, so he should be able to reply before Zach returns, anyway.

Besides, I don't relish the inevitable paranoia and stress and epic, bloody battle with Percy involving pages of soul-sucking quote walls that will happen tomorrow if it's not Empking.

[Locke Lamora]

It's two things, really. The fact that he says this...

Attacking mongoose's #62 feels like shooting fish in a barrel...but

eww

. I'm curious as to why all those who accused IAI of IIoA said nothing about this post.

I'd have to agree with this.

...when he clearly missed Mongoose 62 himself despite posting in 65 and quoting IAI's 63, in which IAI himself quotes the previous Mongoose post. Seems like he's trying to use Mina's point to make others look scummy rather than actually considering the game fully, either at the time Mongoose made the post or when Mina picked up on it later.

Then there's his next suspicion of Mongoose, which doesn't come until the next phase:

I already disliked mongoose - I'm not sure what to make of Baby Spice, but it hasn't improved my view of that slot. Red still seems worse to me, broadly for the reasons already stated, which is the point.

Here, a complete lack of analysis and definitive read on the Mongoose slot: he apparently thought Mongoose was scummy, despite the above quote replying to Mina being the only possible indication of that, he doesn't know what to make of Baby Spice (interesting similarity to BS's choice of words that I picked up on earlier with her Sotty/Lrdwhyt suspicion), and he keeps his options open regarding the slot whilst maintaining the push on Red.

That and his Dry-Fit suspicion came very late and again with very little analysis of his actual play.

[Locke Lamora]

EBWOP: the 'I have to agree with this' is obviously Elmo's comment, but I didn't get all the tags in.

[Furcolow]

bored locke

[Furcolow]

get it?

[Sotty7]

Actually, before I hammer, one last question, just in case the game doesn't end and Sotty dies:

Sotty, how sure are you that jason is innocent? 100%? I highly doubt he's scum based on his interactions with the flipped players, but I occasionally get a twinge of paranoia due to his inactivity and to reasoning I disagree with. If you know him well enough to say that this absolutely isn't his scum play, then I'll trust your judgment and treat him as confirmed.

You can never be 100% sure, but I would bet anything that he is town here.

Final Vote count of Day 2 Phase 2:

Empking - 7 (Thor665, I Am Innocent, Sotty7, Elmo, Furcolow, JasonT1981, Benmage)
Mina - 3 (Locke Lamora, Percy, Empking)
Percy - 1 (KaleiÐoscøpe)

Not Voting: (Mina)

Deadline for Day 2 is Monday, December 6th at 8am CST

With 12 alive it's 7 to lynch

[Zachrulez]

So it's decided then. Off the mountain with ye Empking! By now you have a good idea how it works. Town forces Empking onto the contraption doohickey, the button is pushed, and Empking goes falling to his death. Nothing like a falling man screaming to his own demise. Justice is done for yet another day! Except for one small little detail. A search of Empking's house yeilds nothing... blast it! The final scum still eludes you! Well it's late now, better go get some sleep.

Empking

lynched day 2 phase 2

Night 2 begins. Deadline for night actions is Monday December 6th at 8:30am. Actions not sent in by then will be forfeited.

Consider the thread locked from this point, DO NOT POST!

[Zachrulez]

Elmo has requested replacement. End of night will be delayed until I can find a replacement.

[Zachrulez]

Elmo wants to play until a replacement is found for him, so night will be ending momentarily.

[Zachrulez]

It's another dreadful morning as the town finds Locke Lamora, or rather what's left of him on display in the town hall. It's one heck of a mess and it will take days to clean up, the message this kill sent is clear, and the town finds itself having trouble focusing on the task at hand... but life must go on... so it's time to start hunting once again.

Locke Lamora

Day 3 phase 1 begins. Deadline for both phases of day 3 is Monday December 27th at 11am CST.
