Right.
Oh, sod, my last content post was P11. Didn't realise I'd strayed back that far. My apologies.
From what I've seen, I'm fairly convinced of Josh's guilty, and a replacement will only bugger up any previous reads and mean we have to start over.
I won't say who you should investigate. Just go for who you think.

Woah, woah. Interesting ability.Kise wrote:I was hoping Alex would answer first, but since you're online, who should I investigate? It's a 1-shot day ability. I guess Stef considers me the epitome of inspection, so in an ironic move, he gave me that kind of mechanic, lol.

This is a fair point. Whilst it may seem a little OTT, posting drunk is probably a bad idea anyway as it might balls up logic or throw any metas of that player out the window for that post, making it tricky to get a read.Kid wrote:Why are we hammering someone who hasn't claimed exactly? And why the need to include "drunk post"? To me, that makes it seem like you could be as blunt as you want and just later say "I was drunk, so it's really fine. I didn't mean it."

So.... You don't feel the need to defend yourself? Ok. I have no reason to change my vote then. Explaining things is a pro-town thing to do... Ignoring them because you avoid any more slip ups... is scummy.Starbuck wrote: Yes, I did. I was trying to catch up. Vote for who you think is scum, that's how the game works. If you think that I'm the scummiest, I expect you to vote for me. If not, then I expect you to vote for whoever else you think is.
First time I've heard that not having an updated wiki is a scumtell....starbuck wrote: Kise was repeatedly asked about his experience. He kept referring to his VAST offsite experience and the only thing he wrote about in his Wiki at that point was one newbie game on MS. He didn't give any type of links within the thread to his games offsite. Now his Wiki reflects it.
VP Baltar KEPT asking him about his experience. That's why Kise kept repeating himself. He gave reasons to avoid that particular question and you decided to find that scummy.
I understand... Not the greatest play ever but I've tried to pull similar - unsuccessful stunts in the past.camn wrote: I was MILDLY trying to lay a trap.
I actually assumed that I was the only one.. and maybe I could get a scum fake-something... since I knew I was going to claim it anyway.
It didn't really occur to me that there might be more than one. Meh.
So you don't believe that town players may arm traps?molestargazer wrote:Fishing for reactions is fine.alexhans wrote:Come on mole... It's called fishing for reactions... Don't try to make it look worst than it actually is.
Trying to goad people into responding in a certain way, perhaps one that would make them look scummy, is not.
Well... I assume that cheerleading for someone's waggon should Imply that you don't disagree with their lynch... Or do you think that someone who doesn't log in MS will hear an alarm bell if he is at L-1?VP Baltar wrote: I said we should lynch Taranski? Quotes please.
Sure... But only if I get an invitation.VP Baltar wrote:awww, will you pick out my dress?
Because I'm reading his personality similarly to the reads I have on players like Zwets, Wall-e and some others... reckless players that become easy mislynches for scum to pull. And Kise, as opposed to Zwets or Wall-e, is a frantic poster wich will make it easy to catch him if he is scum. So I'd rather coach him to be pro-town than ignore my gut and lynch him for mild scum tells that may be tied to his personality.VP Baltar wrote:Ok, I'm quickly noticing in your post that you are spending a lot of time coaching Kise. Why is that? There is more than one instance where you tell him what the 'proper' play would be...which suggests that under normal circumstances you would find what he did to be scummy. Why the free pass?
That's why I separated him in my analysys and said that he was a special case.
While I'm pro-Josh hate, I have to call you on this one. Weren't you just busting my chops over voting Taranski on like page 2? I have a feeling that if healex wrote:That's it ... I think I might've found SCUM. You hate lurkers but waggon her and not on taranksi for instance?
HoS: Josh
had
voted Taranski there you would have found him just as suspicious, if not more. It's a lose-lose situation. I don't know if you noticed by acknowledged his reason for choosing skitz over taranski... But that doesn't mean I have to delete what I thought... I make my notes as I read and they stay.
Josh had been scummy for a while before that vote anyway:
His push on kise for the hypothetical question and later for the experience thing... Then he went on a farfetched explanation that lead to an implicit conclusion that scumhunting was bad because townies could lie when pressured... Then said that a townie would claim scum...
No. Because when someone rolefishes they always gain information. They can get a claim (cop, townie, etc) or they can get a denial (wich means that they have less people to choose from).VP Baltar wrote: It just wouldn't happen. Second, You're accusing me of rolefishing under the premise that he himself could be a cop.
Yes. But the pro-town thing to do is shut your mouth when you think you might give dangerous info to scum.VP Baltar wrote:Keep in mind, I'm not the one who brought up the cop at all. If he's the cop, then it was an awful play because there was no reason to say what he did in the first place.
If you had asked me that when I started playing in MS I might've answered yes... but I've seen more than one game with a godfather and no cop so... No.VP Baltar wrote:Where did I say I expected him to claim godfather? I said a godfather is a type of scum role where the scum would assume there to be an investigative role. You disagree with that logic?And what do you expect him to tell you? yes, I am a godfather??? not enough. It seems that you people don't worry about outing power roles.
I REALLY, don't see the benefit of speculating about the setup or talking about PRs on D1. I think it can be very damaging. Sorry if I come off to strong but I feel the need to say what I think.VP Baltar wrote:And again, no I don't feel that the conversation was bordering anywhere near outing powerroles. Give people a bit of credit sometimes.
lol! Abstract WIFOM!imaginality wrote: Is it okay if I answer your questions after this weekend, since I'm competing in the NZ Rock Paper Scissors Championship?
Dude... this sure looks like rolefishing... If I hadn't skimmed the thread and noted that you had a day inspection I would've yelled at you...Kise wrote:@alex - If you could find out whether 1 particular person was townie or mafia (besides me), who would it be?
I would go for camn or Starbucks... I think. Or someone who I have no read on... like Imaginality or mole.
So you just lynch him for lurking? You think the ones who are voting him or willing to vote him do it for his lurking?camn wrote: wow! It works!
I'm putting Lyman at L-1 now.
I am tired of today, and I am tired of his lurking.
I think it is time for a good old fashioned lurker-lynch.
Well. That goes for ALL rolefishers here. Some may be town some may be scum... but they all helped scum.Starbuck wrote:This is only my speculation, but probably because now the mafia may have you ruled out as a PR, so that's one less person for the PR's to hide behind.Kise wrote:But no one is telling me exactly HOW I endangered the PR's. Please explain.
Kise wrote:It's best if we don't put words in people's mouth.. I'd rather hear this direct from Kid & VP.
EXCUUUUUSE ME??? So Kid and VP are scum? Are you voting any of them?Starbuck wrote:You actually think that the mafia are gonna tell you what they are thinking?
QFTcamn wrote: Look how much nonsense-time has been spent talking about it. It is NOT helpful as far as finding scum is concerned.. which is why it is a bad idea.
mmmmmmmmm.... I DONT like this. At ALL. You put him at L-1 with your 2 votes. Then you push for the hammer and say at the same time that it's a drunk post??? WTF?camn wrote: Can someone hammer Lyman and we can all think about things overnight, while basking in the awesomeness of a lurker-scum-lynch?
PS . . ^^drunk post
May I remind you something...?VP Baltar wrote:There has been so much idiotic setup speculation this game it's making it nigh impossible to actually get conversation that can lead to finding scum going.
You and mole started this.VP Baltar 131 wrote:QFT.molestargazer wrote:Why do you assume we HAVE a cop?
wow... Camn YELLS for more minuses... The fact that she says herself although she doubts his sanity is SUPER weird. Then she says: inspect he who is about to be lynched... Waste it... And later she gives the answer she should've given (as town) in the first place.camn wrote:Well, ME, of course..
thought I can't imagine you are SANE..
Or Josh Lyman?
Or whoever you think is scummiest.
In my wildest dreams... A replacement would come for Josh and we would lynch camn or starbucks...
Inspect someone Kise! We could use the info.
I'm back...
That is a lie. Other people can shout "hypocrisy" here, but I'm not denying it like he is.Josh Lyman wrote:Hi, all -- I'm here; not exactly lurking,
Are you serious? This has to be the biggest meta tell ever. Now your probably going to have to in every game to avoid scrutiny over this.Kise wrote:@Platy - In every game I am town, I usually say something to that effect. Even if you're Godfather, you're not immune to the LD. But if I am mafia, then I watch what I say because I don't want to get caught slipping.
I find this very slightly suspicious. camn (i think) has said that she now has an extra vote, but before she said that, imaginality said the above statement well after the mod posted the Special Mechanic thing. I'm thinking that imaginality may have something to do with it as well.imaginality wrote:What's the current vote count?

Just seems like an odd word choice to me. Any reason you chose 'crush' over 'hammer'?VP Baltar wrote:then I'll crush him.
As others have said, go with your gut.Kise wrote:I was hoping Alex would answer first, but since you're online, who should I investigate? It's a 1-shot day ability.
I would imagine a 1-time investigation would be sane, otherwise it just hurts the town rather than help.camn wrote:thought I can't imagine you are SANE..
I'm still happy with my Josh vote. He hasn't done anything for me to unvote.
I'm going out, I will read the Alex and skitzer posts when I get back.

You talk about not putting words in other people's mouths and then you go ahead and do it. I never said not having a Wiki was a scumtell. I said that not telling the whole truth about your experience is. Like when you are asked for links from a previous site, you give them, rather than be shady about it or give bogus reasons why you cannot.alexhans wrote:First time I've heard that not having an updated wiki is a scumtell....starbuck wrote: Kise was repeatedly asked about his experience.

First. When did I say what about putting words in people's mouths? (that was Kise, I think) Then... You voted Kise for not telling you his experience and not having an updated wiki. THERE'S NO WAY AROUND IT. He CLEARLY explained why he didn't want to disclose his experience.

Just so you all know....I've jumped on the drinking while posting bandwagon. It was a rough day.
Alex, can you explain to me why camn is a better lynch than Josh?
I did? Please quote. I asked him once and when he said he didn't want to I said I didn't agree, but I could understand his reasoning.alex wrote:VP Baltar KEPT asking him about his experience.
You're very much exaggerating this. Taranski was not anywhere near L-1, nor would he have been likely to reach that.

What? Does any of your scum hunting not involve conspiracy theories? Why would he as scum ask for a vote count before camn had received a double vote and had a chance to use it?

Actually. I've just noticed that I've been venting my recent real life frustration through mafiascum... I'll work on it.camn wrote:I don't like your tone, alexhans.
It makes me grumpy.
You should work on it.
It's not scummy, its just annoying.
I'm back...
I went with mole since he was also one of the 1st to question me about my mention of "The PR That We Shall Not Mention Evar, Evar Again." He's innocent.. And as much as I want to leave it at that, we shouldn't rule out the possibility of a Marlon Brando/Al Pacino(8-)). If I did get an insane reading as camn thought, then that'd certainly be screwed up, considering everyone would then turn on me if I lead a mislynch. So for now, the enigmatic molester (stargazer***) is cleared(?), and the rest of us are still suspects.alexhans wrote:I would go for camn or Starbucks... I think. Or someone who I have no read on... like Imaginality or mole.
Lyman's scumminess isn't as strong to me as Buck or camn's, but we need progression. If anyone is online, I want you to know that I am about to make the final (I think?) vote against him. If you have any objections, say so within the next hour or else MC Hammer will put him away.

One thing that would've been ok for camn to say was that the investigation COULD be insane because we were in a looney house... but she didnt...
anyway. I have a neutral read on mole so I take no conclusions from this, or at least some minimal town points for mole.
