Please note that if this actually gets going soon it will conflict with Caffwagon, which 3 of us are going to be attending. Not sure how that will affect Reck and magnus, but I'll not be spending much/any time on my computer.

Who needs discussion? :P
K, the way I'm seeing it is I choose 6 people to die, listen to stuff, and then choose which one I want to die rite?

I am aware, but I can extend deadlines for that purpose as I already knew this as going to occur

As we are only missing a single confirm... Here we go:

Discussion Period 1 Begins!


During this time, you may discuss in thread who you would like to see go up on the chopping block.
In order for DP1 to end, every non-lawyer must submit a list of SIX players they would like to see on the chopping block.
In the same message, they must submit ONE player they trust the most.

Discussion Period 1 ends on August 17th at 11:59 PM MST.

At this time, lawyers may be present in the discussion, although it does not benefit them to reveal any information they find as it may prove detrimental to their cases later on.

I will extend this time period if SC has not confirmed within 24 hours.

As per usual:

Fact: Kairyuu and magnus_orion are in the same game
Fact: Kairyuu and magnus_orion are never the same alignment in games they both play
Fact: Kairyuu is town
Conclusion: magnus_orion is scum

Only problem is that I can't vote him because of the mechanics not allowing direct votes.

Clarification: Once lists are sent in, they may not be changed. Elli gets an exemption from this because it comes before the post, he may resubmit his list one time if he wishes to do so. You may either PM it to me or post in thread.

Wait, we can choose to post them in thread or to pm them?

Yes

Is there any process we should use to determine who we put into the list?
If we don't put scum in the lists at all, or if scum become the casemaker, that means we have essentially, which, I mean to say, is not certainly but probably, 0% chance of lynching scum....

We can discuss who we want in but starting with it is a shot in the dark. (I almost sent in my list but then saw its irreversible soo)

Is there anyone who wants to self-nominate themselves as a casemaker? I do not.

I'm okay with name claiming. I want to find out if my character has a cool catchphrase.

Normally I'd be down but these mechanics are still flipping me on my head. We're building a case on someone being scum before they've done anything scummy?

Let's obliterate UK for confirming without posting.

Obligatory spoiler warning goes here.

I think the idea is that you get good ideas of who's scummy in these three discussion days.
Nobody's getting kicked out unless they get put on the chopping block in the discussion phase, so this is your chance to educate your guesses.

Aight.

Well PHASE ONE OF MURDER BY TRIAL:

No posting is immediate blockage.
No content is immediate blockage.

/confirm

I'd stick Ellibereth on the chopping block were it not for the mod clarification, and Nikanor and AlmasterGM were not paying attention when they signed up. Yes, sykedoc is gaining a reputation for being a bastard mod like I am, but I, like probably he, don't want to bastard mod
EVERY
game. Neither of the last two games I finished modding were, though the two before that were.

This game isn't designed as a bastard game, but if it turns out that way... oh well.

Actually, I thought name claims would be more effective but in my head the game was a partial reveal. In a no-reveal, it's a pointless exercise I guess. >.>. I'm down with revealing still though. Might help us gather information at the very least, plus we're all vanilla anyway.

Hmmm.... How do you suppose we'll catch scum without flips nor votes. Pure discussion is pressureless. Get a pseudo vote system up and running? Nah.

Huh, this started?

I'd vote sykedoc for knowing the scum and not telling us, but you can't vote.
I'd probably then OMGUS Ellibereth
From there, um...idk.

Let's go with SC, VV, Almaster, and Reck.

However, this is NOT an official list, just saying who'd I'd random list :V.

If we had (considerably) more time, we could treat the slots as six different lynches, with everyone sending in the same list which is created by a majority of pseudo-votes. I'm not sure if we have enough time for that though.

SCUM
Why am I scum for wanting to call you out for having a chopping block ready on the first post of the game? We don't have votes proper right now, so we very well can't have an RVS, but gee whiz, test the waters before you dive!
