Personally, my 4 targets of the day would be Ravenpaw (reasons listed above), Doctor whatever (pathetic contributions, from a hydra that's disgraceful), Amethyst (hasn't been scumhunting, and then calls me opportunistic without expanding on it at all), and Nero Cain (The meta comment from Monkey was really interesting, and Nero's reasoning for jumping on the Skull wagon was poor)

Desperado, town wont win many games if we allow slacking. Its cancer.

In the mean time we might be hunting down our own tail, getting rid of active posters just because they didnt have the same opinions or whatever.

I have seen Jebus as "browsing this thread" without posting, I dont understand how this is allowed.

Look, I dont want to get rid of an active poster. There are so many lurkers its mindboggling how town ever wins.

We need to send a message here.
We need to avoid "stupid" lynches.
We need to FORCE people into contribution.

I agree Sven. I actually voted Jebus for those reasons 5 pages before you, so trust me, we're on the same page. But I've also just died in a game with Jebus where he got lynched for this precise reason, and was town. This is not excusing his play, but it is meant to illustrate that no matter how much pressure you put on him (with words AND votes), he just doesn't care. My understanding from that game is that his meta is more of the same.

So with that said, I'm moving my vote to my #1 scum read over a pressure vote designed to force someone to talk. I think you should do the same.

Sven, the last you said you hadn't had time to focus in on ferret. If that is still the case, just ISO him, come back, and try to justify his actions as town. If you can do that convincingly, I'll jump back on Jebus with you.

I'd equate Jebus's play as sloppy, and anti-town, but not necessarily scummy as such, which is why he's not a suspect of mine. I can still understand why you guys are voting him though, we do need him to contribute somehow.

Agreed, my research on him (stated in thread) is that his lack of participation is role neutral.

But its so fucking selfish. Why sign up and not play? HOW IS THIS ALLOWED.

I have no objections to your post other than it knocking out my last bit of motivation.

I just dont understand this site. Scumming is very easy when you dont post an people dont give a fuck.

I just want to point out how bad GCBC have played here.

GCBC asks where to put vote <--- bad in itself
nero says ferret and someone else

GCBC iso´s them both in 4 minutes
GCBC vote nero for having bad reads

everyone is like "yo, wtf?"

GCBC votes ferret and claims that nero has earned his vote


So... GCBC went from thinking that ferret was a bad vote to a good vote in like... 20 minutes?
He also doesnt specify how nero earned his vote.


Man thats alot of shit.

Do you have research to back up that Day 1 lurker lynches are more successfull than day 1 lynches on active players?

You are missing the point.

Its about sending a message that slacking gets you lynched. That will make people post. Increased posting equals increased difficulty to scum.

I agree with this, but I think scummy active players need to be looked at with equal scruitiny. I don't want a day one mislynch just because someone forgot about the game, is my point.

Agreed. It is player dependant, some slack as scum specificly and some are active in both roles.

My thoughts on wagoning are that we have like 10 more days. Appraoching your vote as "this is who i want to kill" is in my opinion wrong. Your vote is a tool that you should use to improve your decision making. So while you guys are voting people you find scummy I am voting someone I want more from, and I fucking refuse to be disctated by some lazy ass selfish A_HOLE that signs up for a game he has no attention of playing, MULTIPLE TIMES.

So... like if this was must lynch, I agree, vote your strongest scum read... but its day 1, so I think you should approach voting as a tool for getting information.

So I get back from school, and I get a wagon on me. lolwut

What is being expected of me currently? There are so many posts when I get back from school that I get overwhelmed. I have no idea what questions people are trying to ask me, because they are just getting boggled up with all of the other (for the lack of a better term) "filler" posts.

Could someone
please
make a post with the questions they would like me to answer, and I would be glad to comply.

I want you to tell me why you love Ferrets?
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Dammit Sven, I wish you didn't just go to sleep. I still need to do a catch up but your activity today has left me with a few questions. Mainly, all the points about Jebus lurking and not posting could be said for me as well. My first impression is that Jebus already had some heat so it is easier to go that route for the mislynch? And why lynch lurkers, someone else just said it but it really has correlation to someones alignment. Also seems a bit ironic that you are saying that lurkers should be lynched and here you are one of the most active players as late.

And to whomever was asking why I brought up Amethyst's meta, basically the past games I had played with them popped into my head as I was reading their post. Since I thought I had a good read on them I figured a stream of consciousness post was good to post, almost a form of note taking if you will.

Dango out.
