This post is as likely to be in the correct game as an elephant typing Shakespere in Italian.

Mod please redact if that's the case.

[fferyllt]

It's in the right game. I'm on the right playing field and I know which endzone is mine.

You should read wikipedia's page on cargo cult.

I thought that was a claim in another game.

There is no logical fallacy. I am not claiming that the mod suddenly gives ns a town pm because of the prior flip in the game. That would be asinine. I am not stating causality.

Much like the rooster crowing does not cause the sun to come up. Yet, the odds are pretty good that the rooster crowing is due to the sun being about to come up rather than a pig charging with an electric cattle prod.

Here, the votes do not cause NS to be town but I can know NS to be town anyway. There is no pig with a cattle prod.

VOTE: titus
May place another vote when I get back home or ehatever. We need to move this game forward like lunch through my large intestine.

"Wow, you guys are still alive?" he asks. "Sorry, Shaquanda, I forgot there's a thing going on down here. Is the back alley still $50 extra?"

[He hurries back up the steps and closes the door. Lady Serene issues a vote count for good measure.]

No your claim goes more like "this random thing happened once in a game and the player I thought was scum WAS SCUM. Therefore any time this random thing happens, then the player I think is scum will be scum".

a whole crate full of soccer balls worth of cargo cult. You can call them Wilson.

[Titus]

Fferylt, it's four or five games in a row without fail unless scum are wagoned against each other.

Knight Errant 2
InuYasha
Revolution Mafia
Harry Potter

There ALL of my townclears were clear. When I picked a pool, all the scum were possible in it. The only time in those games I was wrong in the slightest was InuYasha when I cleared Mhork from being scum because of his play with BBMolla in an unknown multiball situation. I have a process. Over many games it has proven accurate. It's not like I woke up one morning decided NS was as confirmed town as little of a threat as a deer head hanging from my bedroom wall.

NS, please stay. I don't think anyone wants to read this and you are conftown anyway. So why leave?

[fferyllt]

It's one moment in a game that goes on for four quarters and possible overtime. It's a fleeting early wagon. I'm not going to buy this in this game. And I fully expect it to be subverted in the not too distant future if it isn't/hasn't already been. It's iminently subvertible because it's a meaningless event, especially early day one.

I'm going to care about players' motivations and their body of work. Not about one vote count in a months long game.

If it's subvertable, then how did I hit 4 in a row right? You don't just have a horse give birth to four babies on a lark.

Also, when I look at bodies of work and motivations (minus ika), I tend to be wrong. So I am going to stick with what I am good at.

I will not vote NS or his replacement under any circumstances.

[fferyllt]

And you won't think for a moment about why you're at lylo with NS-slot and someone else, either.

I'm seriously squicked about this and I hate wearing the same team colors because you're talking pure cargo cult and nothing other than eventual abject failure will ever convince you otherwise. And then you'll no doubt latch onto some other random event or data point as your next stanley cup winning strategy.

I'll have more to say in postgame. I think it would be best if we stopped interacting while the game is on.

[AngryPidgeon]

Are you still set on CDB Today ffery? This game Day feels as long and empty as my large intestine. If we keep at this rate, I don't know if anything useful will happen. We can wait for NS replacement to get here and generate content maybe.

Titus has become my preferred lynch. If she is scum, then great. I'm done giving her any town points for the BRantz behavior, frankly everything that has happened Today is insane and she is at the center of the maelstrom. BooKitty and UT both think titus is fishy. CDB is awol and NS is getting replaced, so who knows about them. UT has been flirty with me at least and I like that. I'm begrudgingly back to holding my ground on the booKitty townread.

If titus is town then I think her convictions are likely to get me mislynched in lylo should we get there anyhow.


So if you would like to make a punt and lynch CDB, let me know and I'll back it. Right now, I'm thinking a blitz on Titus might yield mroe results.

[Titus]

So how many times do I have to be right for my methods to be valid? Five ten fifty? I feel this is an attack because you would never use it.

Just because you aren't a mad biologist with a farm full of octopi clinging to transparent plastic walls doesn't mean we cannot have valid strategies the other does not use.

If you developed a tactic that was right four times in a row? Why not use it?

I won't hesitate in lylo. That's right.

If we all accepted my reads, scum would be at a forced loss.

This is looking more and more desperate. Why is AP focused so hard on lylo or keeping NS lynchable? He literally just finished World of Warcraft where all my townclears at the end were town, without the benefit of VCA.

AP scum has the most to gain by lynching me. If I am alive, he cannot win as the venomous town snakes will suffocate him.

Ut mislynch
CDB mislunch
3 player lylo, everyone's confirmed clear. AP dies.

He has less odds than a fish out of water unless he lynches me or convinces you all to lynch NS.

I don't think she's scum. voting her would be purely on the basis of colonizing lylo with someone who might be willing to look at the game in its entirety.

Maybe the farm leagues will send up a star player for NS' slot.

[fferyllt]

AP, I feel like cdb and ut both are playing/not playing in a way that can fit the mold of standing aside and letting town tear itself apart.

I think that's a way of playing scum that is mostly alien to you.

Can you see this day as a sort of faked pass? It can't really be a razzle dazzle play because there are a bunch of mislynches that have to happen, and the last scum's hands need to be clean as possible to the end.

This is where I started the game day, and I think it's where I'm ending it.

The farm leagues can send up a star player for NS's slot. They better regenerate limbs like an overstimulated starfish being chopped alive by a chef for the amount of shit that will be thrown at the slot.

If we narrow the game down to three possible players as scum, we win.

titus, srsly just stop talking to me for a while. Your arguments are having the complete opposite effect of what you're trying to accomplish.

There are other pretzels in my chex mix bowl that I'm still thinking about and the discussion with you has become pure distraction.

[Untrod Tripod]

so I've been twisting around my necklace vainly trying to think about whether or not we should leave NS slot alone today, and I'm kind of thinking we let the replacement come in and do their thing. as far as I can remember, the only outwardly scummy thing NS did was the self-preservation buddying thing he did with Titus earlier today. now maybe I'm john lennoning this a bit, but we might get in a new player who cracks the game open. if NS slot is scum then hopefully it'll become obvious and we can just lynch it.

the other option is just lynch it before we potentially get a competent scum, but....

I'm much happier with the Titus lynch

[Bookitty]

The fact that CDB has been active on-site and not here is a pretty clear indicator that he's scum imo.

If he flips scum, I'm going to apologise to Nobody Special for spilling the punch bowl on the tablecloth and ruining the wedding with what's-his-name.

[Untrod Tripod]

let's see if we can beetlejuice him

CDB CDB CDB

[Titus]

Can you guys just vote CDB and get this show on the road like armadillos trying to cross the road before the freight train arrives?

[AngryPidgeon]

HAvent read latest page, but I wanted to say that NS's replace out appears to be entirely unrelated to this game. He pulled in a backup mod for his modded game. Not that anybody suggested this replace out was scummy or w/e, just wanted to make sure nobody got an upset stomach over it.
