To be honest, I think at this point, lynching him will provide even more and faster info than keeping him alive for few more days.

Everything's going to be okay, I promise.

Cephrir, your line of reasoning assumes Orc dies some time in the future.
YEAH WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE PREDICTING WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN IN THE FUTURE?

If we're just going to let him live because of the cop claim, what's to stop every single other scum from claiming a PR and not getting lynched.
The development cycle consisted of the lazy bastards at Activision and Infinity Ward opening up "MW3.exe", making a few tweaks and saving it as "CODGhosts.exe", again hyping up the copy-and-pasted game so gullible fools will buy the same game they've been playing for the past 6 years. Great job guys.

I'm really conflicted now. Sangres' case on orcinus is pretty good but I still can't make myself believe it's a good idea to lynch a D1 Cop claim.
Unvote
since that's not useful anymore.

By the way, sangres, did you build that case together or was it mostly one or the other of you? If the latter, which?

Nacho wrote up the case. When we've been able to talk about this game, most of our recent discussion has been about orcinus. It's a consensus opinion, though I didn't react as strongly to the lyncher post as Nacho did. Nacho had to point out to me that normal game rules don't allow for that kind of win condition.

I haven't seen a comprehensive "case" (or profile of you) as to why you're town/scum on meta (if I missed it, please advise.)

My apologies for my previous posts, I had accumulated a lot of stress from work and I'm still having issues with my boss (i'm at the point of breaking out and quitting my job), i wouldnt mind if you guys decide to lynch me over it but w/e, idc, life > mafia anyway, also i'm gonna say that my activity is gonna lower until something happens, and i dont know when that will happen so it's for an indefinite ammount of time.

And I'm not going to bother addressing how your two different ideas of meta are the same thing, as it's plainly useless.
Your lack of strong obv-towning as you approach impending death to make up for crappy play does not really fall in line with the cop role and town wincon.
Why is that?
If you are going to try a flashwagon you should really choose a better target.
The lack of Guyett wading in here seems to me to not resemble his townplay from the Marvel vs DC game.
So not so much a flashwagon (6 days left) but a notice of intent that key players are not meeting their expectations that I think I would see from them if they had a town role.
Your lack of strong obv-towning as you approach impending death to make up for crappy play does not really fall in line with the cop role and town wincon.
Should you live too long, you know you have to be lynched anyway.

I just don't get this board sometimes. People will flash wagon a noob who didn't do anything scummy, but won't hang a well known veteran who is basically screaming "I'm scum."
Just so you have a non-you point of veiw- Orcinus cop claim carries some weight, because starting the game off lynching your investigative role is somewhat disheartening.
Letting scum kill him is annoying, but at least WE didn't do it.
I know you have other scumreads, why not lynch one of them for today?
