No, I said (or at least implied) that I phrased my original question as a question because it wasn't scummy of him to say "blue team". Then he did something else that is scummy.

So, if it isn't scummy of him to mention the blue team, why did you mention it?

Why do you keep saying you 'might be overthinking it'?

I have a penchant for tunneling. Its a bad habit. You may call me gopher if you wish.

molla is in the category of players whose interactions I don't try to analyze.

Why?

With 9 alive, it takes 5 to lynch

Deadline in (expired on 2014-08-04 23:00:00)

I'm willing to lynch anyone for a 50% chance of hitting scum. Odds can't get better. Aye?

but... Nobody changed their vote since the last vote count

[Rubicon]

In order: (1) To start conversation, get reactions, and move us out of RVS. (2) I may take you up on that. (3) I don't feel comfortable predicting how Molla would interact with his partner. I'd rather just say his jump on was shitty and look for his partners later if he flips scum.

[Espressojet]

oh shit, oops, that was a quick reply to the mod, I forgot I had that queued up.

More on bert's post in a moment

so?

This is probably the

scummiest

thing you could suggest. By saying that you essentially suggest that you want to put aside all of your scumhunting for a random guess, and you're implying that you're alright with a townie getting lynched for a

44%

chance of killing a mafia with your lynch. On the (more likely) chance we lynch a townie, and if they successfully kill a Godfather, we've just lost the chance for a godfather lynch

which would result in two whole scum being dead

.

tl;dr scummiest post in this thread by far

[Espressojet]

Mind,

I am not calling you scum, I am simply saying that your post, and its contents, are scummy

Before anybody gets their panties in a wad up in here

[Drew-Sta]

Bert, can you better explain what made you post that? Exactly why do you feel a random lynch will achieve the best result for town?

[Boonskiies]

There's absolutely no reason to chance a town lynch due to the vengeful townie rule. If we mislynch we are potentially losing 2 town members toDay.

[Mr_Ree]

I have a theory. Blue scum is 50% more likely to pick on that slip since they will believe it is more real (you got what I mean?)

which is really interesting. Since if you were werewolf in another game and you saw something hunting for WW and not mafia and it seemed like a slip the WW will be more likely to notice it.

that's one of the reasons why I pointed it out. multiball reaction test.

explain your reaction test. It looks to me like you were the one who fell for it.

Mr. Ree defending me is cool but I don't know what it means

Am I? I was defending your vote. It's a good vote. I did however point out that it came 40 minutes after you proclaimed Rubicon scum and only after additional support for the wagon was shown by Boon's post.

Mr Ree's right, wouldn't the optimal strategy for a reaction test be to wait and see how everybody else reacts instead of reacting to it yourself?

Seems to me like you're just using this as an excuse. What were the other reasons you pointed it out?

[Boonskiies]

I'm confused to why we have a night phase in this game. There aren't roles who have any night abilities? On top of that, the nights are 3 days?

Anywho, I'm willing to vote Rubicon now. If someone puts to L-1, I'll hammer.

There aren't nights, the rules are just copy-pasted.

start conversation, etc.

If we're hammering me then first we should vote on who I should shoot.

[Boonskiies]

You see, that comment is very odd. Does it really matter who we vote for you 'to shoot'. We shouldn't want to consider the fact you are town going into lynching, and I believe you already know who you 'would shoot'

if

you flipped town. Not up for question.

[Espressojet]

Yeahhhhh, he'd probably vengeful me if he flips town.... I almost want to risk it, but I'm finally in a game with two of my buddies, so I don't want to die day 1...

...GRRRRRRRR....

Ok, if nothing new is in development by tomorrow (read: tomorrow aka whenever I feel like browsing after midnight in ~3 hours my time) I will vote him. I'm pretty sure he's scum, but we should continue scumhunting.

[Mr_Ree]

We should continue. No need to rush into anything. Plenty of time left to hear from everyone.

[Rubicon]

Uh, voting on my target is a second lynch vote and generates twice as much information for me to work with. Probably doubles my odds of hitting scum. And it gives you more to work with tomorrow. (I don't know why you think town-me would make up my mind this early. I'm not a tunneler, and I take being a vig seriously.)

And of course you should be considering the fact I'm town. You're voting to lynch me, you shouldn't be sticking your fingers in your ears and yelling "lalala I won't think about what happens when I'm wrong".

Who do you two want me to shoot?

She doesn't keep up on threads. Been in game with her before.

We're vengeful townies, yo. We aren't Vig.
