More Spanish! ZOMG!

We seriously need some mod-prods, and at least one replacement. This game just got fairly interesting, I don't see a reason not to be posting since there are definitely things worth taking stances on.

Sorry I've been away recently, been real busy. Looking at the recent posts, I'm slightly leaning towards buying IH's claim at the moment. I'll look over the older posts that I haven't gone over later.
The end justifies the means.

As I stated before, IH was down low on the scumdar and I see no reason not to buy his claim after the grilling by PJ.

My vote is still on Scope.

I dont think I'll be satisfied with PWS/Arafax until somehow confirmed innocent.

Still waiting on that PBP from Paper.

Also, I seem to have misplaced a Mod around here someplace. Has anyone seen one?

Sorry I disappeared guys. Re-reading now, it looks like a whole bunch happened while I was gone that probably renders what I've written of my pbp obselete, so I'm going to
unvote
until I can catch up again.

Im back and alive, turns out I have pneumonia. I'll be around still, though maybe not quite as active until I start feeling better.

I'll repeat what someone said about Ecto in another game.

This guy's devoted if he wants to stop by and post before he heads off to the hospital (though if I thought about it, I probably would too in case it was serious or something.)

Heh, well I enjoy these games and would hate to be replaced if I werent actually dying. Though I've felt close to it a couple times today.....
I may actually be more active, seeing as how it feels like Im drowning when laying down. May as well be sitting at the PC :P

Okay, I've read what happened in my absence, and I feel pretty satisfied with the truthfulness of IH's claim, though I do find the fact that he's a killer with a win condition independent from the town to be a bit disturbing. Still, I don't think he's a major threat right now, and it wouldn't surprise me if he's killed by the scum tonight.

I have some questions for you, though, IH. In post 290, you state that if you don't find the map, you'll be killed. Do you have any particular time limit to find the map, or is this simply a way of saying you'll lose if you don't have it by the time the game ends? Also, how can not having the map kill you?

I feel the scummiest players are K-Scope and Arafax. After re-reading, I would actually say Arafax looks a bit better than he did before, though still very scummy. Part of the reason I believed PWS to be scum is I felt he was trying to draw attention away from IH, who I thought might be his scumbuddy; this theory grew less and less feasible over time, and now I don't think it is likely at all. Ruling out this theory, however, only removes a little bit of scumminess from PWS's very scummy posts. Looking at only Arafax's posts, he hasn't seemed overtly pro-town or scummy, but because of PWS's actions, I don't think I'll be convinced of his pro-townness by anything short of a claim.

As for K-Scope, I don't really like anything that he's said so far; first there was that exchange with Primate early on, later his overeagerness to lynch PWS when he asked to replace, then a bunch of essentially contentless posts just pushing strongly for the lynch of IH, without actually contributing to discussion. At first I was willing to attribute it to a bad play, but he's been looking scummier and scummier.

I doubt that both Arafax and K-Scope are scumbuddies, however, mostly because of how Arafax has been a little more aggressive towards K-Scope than I think can be attributed to distancing. I think the best course of action right now would be to pressure one of them into claiming, and if it's a satisfactory claim, pressuring the other. I will wait to see what direction things go before deciding where to place my vote, however.

(Note of interest: Now there are TWO players claiming secret additional information that they refuse to reveal, pj and IH. I'm not quite sure of the significance of this.)

I've been pushing because the game was dragging, if you bother to take that into account. For the rest, I think people should finally act now, whether it's a lynch on me or someone else. This is truelly getting ridicilous.

I'd guess from my superiors. If I don't find the map, I'll surely be killed. I'll try to post about something other than my claim... sometime this week.

Still happy with my vote on K-Scope....He was scummy to start off and the fact that he didnt post until he was called scummy (today) makes him more scummy IMO...Waiting to post until someone mentions your scumminess is scummy especially sinces hes been posting in other games everyday.

I would agree with you there, actually :P . After flipping back through the game, I'm a little more anxious to hear more from K-Scope, who hasn't really contributed anything useful to the discussion, while Arafax actually has. K-Scope been using "The game is dragging" as an excuse for his lack of substantial contribution, but there's still a lot that can be said about what's already been said and done, even though the rate of posts is slow.
I believe there are three votes on K-Scope right now, by Ecto, Maz, and Arafax. This will be the fourth:
Vote: KaleiÐoscøpe


IGMEOY: Arafax
still though.

Now, K-Scope: What do you think of everyone in this game? You latched onto IH's sudden switching from agreeing to disagreeing with pj from early on and barely commented at all on anything else that happened, despite pages and pages more being posted. I know a lot of the players haven't really said much, but what do you think of the ones who have said things?

Also, IH, you didn't really answer my question whether you have a time limit to find the map or not. :P

I am sending the mod a PM, in case nobody has done this up until this point. We need prods, and we need a replacement.

I haven't kept up anymore since my interest in this game has degenerated soo much by lurking players and mods. Even though the activity has increased, I'm not really motivated to go through explaining myself all over again. I'm still happy with my vote on IH and will not change it.

Too be honest, I couldn't care less if I would get lynched today, as it at least makes progress then.

Sigh. Well, considering that you don't even care very much any more, I would say the best thing you could do right now to move the game forward and help the day end faster is claim as soon as possible. Normally, I would encourage someone with the attitude you're taking towards this game right now to replace out, but since we don't quite know where the mod is, this would probably cause the game to slow down more.

To the mod when he gets back: Since this is the second time you've had a lengthy absence, in the interest of keeping this game active, maybe it would be wise to designate a back-up mod?

Say, K-Scope, why don't you bother commenting on IH's claim? Do you believe it? Why or why not? Do you find anything particularly wrong with it? Do you have a reason to believe there are or are not Pirates? Do you think anything he said was inconsistent with himself or the theme of the game?

Saying:
K-Scope wrote:I'm still happy with my vote on IH and will not change it.
Tells me next to nothing. How do you expect the game to move if
you
won't give the basis for your opinions? It would be a pretty boring game if all anybody ever said was "Vote: X" and "I'm happy with my vote".

Update: the Mod has picked up my Prod, but still hasn't posted anywhere on the site since the 13th. I am going to prod him again (and I shall do this continually until something happens, especially if I happen to see him on AIM).
