The game of the year: town won!

[Trevor]

VOTE: milk

honestly at this point i'm dealing with a theory that this is a kooky bastard game and there is an abnormally low number of scum in it. There, I said it.

The thought of a sole SK (and mimes) anti-town force crossed my mind but I dismissed it, so there's that

vote: milk

what about an SK with a one-shot governor power

I'm seriously starting to consider this.

Also the day is going to end soon.

[Staeg]

Oh, and that.

If milk ends up flipping scum I'm going to eat a whole box of my cookies in celebration.

If he flips town I'm going to go on a fucking rampage and eat all of

your

guys' cookies.

No, you're not.

We have another wagon with no reasoning springing up very quickly on what is most likely a non-scum role, same thing thats been happening all game.

We're actually lynching all the lurkers and I managed to flip it to a lurker I have a scumread on.

[redFF]

look how well thats worked so far

[Zdenek]

In War in Heaven 3, a game of about 40 people, 5 of the 11 players who were inactive to the point of being mod killed and replaced were scum. Here the mechanic is different since players will just be allowed to lurk, but I still suspect that it's something scum will do.

[Zdenek]

Actually, it was about 30 players.

[redFF]

In Game of the year, a game of about 50 people, 0 of the 7 lynches so far have been on scum. All of these lynches were wagons that built up very quickly, most went through without a claim. YOu don't think it's suspicious how fast this milk wagon has grown compared to how slow the kondi wagon has been?

Well, the fact that it's been impossible to get Kondi lynched is driving me crazy, but I also see the value in getting rid of lurkers.

New plan
we sheep the shit out of imaginality

[Ellibereth]

So, even though we're not going with the blocks of 10 plan, I'm still going to do reads 10 at a time, rather than drown under a sea of posts.

But first a quick comment on current wagons: of the people with 2+ votes, I wouldn't miss elmo or redFF, but so far they don't reek of scum, just of useless. T-Bone, BBmolla and Rhinox are all okay (although I hope BB doesn't post 60 posts every day or I might have to lynch him just for sanity's sake). So yep, no wagons obv-right enough for me to jump onto at the moment.

As for my reads:

+ T-bone - 15 posts - engaging, giving reads and content, I see no reason for his wagon other than anti-voting-block-policy-lynchers. People concerned he's giving town reads too early, meh. Depends if they become self-confirming or if he reconsiders them as required. And in a game this big I can see voting blocks having a part to play, if not quite yet.
+ Nobody Special - 3 posts - good scumhunting in them...
= zajnet - 0 posts...
= staeg - 0 posts...
= lupo - 0 posts...
=- theamateur - 10 posts - nothing but policy votes so far; then apparently breadcrumbing something in his final post? which seems too attention-drawing to be helpful if town, but equally too overtly attention-drawing for scum, so I'll say null tell on that for now...
=- Amrun - 1 post - her first post makes me a little wary. Mainly cos finding lurkers in this game seems like an easy way to avoid scumhunting...
- funkybike1 - 1 post - no contribution...
- sykedoc - 1 post - no content yet; hopefully we're not going to hear 'gotta catch up' too much this game because that's too easy an excuse in this game. You've gotta contribute whether you're caught up or not. Just read the last few pages or something...
-- Moneybags - 8 posts - sheeping and pushing a Milk wagon for no (stated) reason, and fluff posts...

VOTE: Moneybags

Tomorrow my next 10 reads.

Next reads:

++ redff - not a fan of the one-liner posting style but I get the sense from his posts that he's genuinely thinking and questioning, so that gives me a town feel...
+ SleepyKrew - unvoting due to absence gave me a good vibe, I feel like as scum he wouldn't necessarily have bothered to unvote...
+ Rhinox - lots of strategy, and policy votes, but good reasons for both, and I like that the reads he gave in 668 weren't just sheeping other people's suspects...
+ BBMolla - in a game with 50 players and 10 to lynch, I don't think scum would be so bold to throw out the "meh I don't care if I get lynched" line
=+ Zdenek - I agree with his reads particularly elmo, T-bone and Muffin...
= UberNinja - having fun isn't a scum tell; sure Uber could be doing more scumhunting, but since this is a 50-player game, I'm happy to give players who make me laugh leeway at this point, and focus on hunting the non-funny scum instead...
= SpyreX - his playstyle always gives me a baseline pro-town sense. This game he comes off as slightly less engaged than other games I've been in with him but on the other hand the rate of posting this game is crazy so I think that's pretty null right now. Definitely want to wait til the dust settles and see how he plays when we're not posting 25 pages a day
=- Captain Corporal - more please...
- MoS - one post, no content. Dislike the "I'm not going to read anything" approach: @MoS you don't need to read the whole game, just read the last page or so and look for scummy posts there...
- Robotnick2 - first post suggests he is or at least was paying slight attention to the game, so why didn't he give us anything more than that?

Yeah, not keen on this UberNinja wagon.
Of the above players, and yesterday's, I'd be fine with a Robotnick2 wagon if we want to lynch someone low-contributing.

But right now I want to

VOTE: TeChNoWC

for his fence-sitting and buddying. He seems like he's trying to get on everyone's good side, and his posts don't ring sincere to me. I'm interested to hear what others think.

[Ellibereth]

He also didn't like elmo

[UberNinja]

If milk ends up flipping scum I'm going to eat a whole box of my cookies in celebration.

If he flips town I'm going to go on a fucking rampage and eat all of

your

guys' cookies.

No, you're not.

TRY AND STOP ME

[UberNinja]

But I don't really have a scum read on Techno, Ellibereth.

As of post 2146, Milk was lynched. He was a Vanilla Townie.

It is now night one, and it will be for 24 hours. Get your actions in in time.

[mykonian]

Rhinox was killed, he was a vanilla townie.

It is now day 3, with 35 people, you get 3 lynches today and 3 weeks to do them. It takes 10 to lynch.

So Prod dodge. Don't like it tough shit
