Idk, I feel like I'm trying to convince myself you're scum, but you're just my best lead. I just think we really need to dunk someone soon because this deadline is real unforgiving and we can't really afford to wait much longer for the first one. People should start consolidating.

What bad news did I try and deflect?
First; pressure votes never work if you outright say they're for pressure. Second; this is no ordinary game, and -as long as someone else is alead- nobody actually feels "pressured" (unless they're close enough to get eliminated once the leading wagon does hit the threshold). To elaborate: When you votes someone in an ordinary game it means your vote is OFF everyone else. That's one less vote towards the threshold. Here, you could be voting EVERYONE, and it makes no difference (it works as if we all became hated).

Pressure votes do work in this game actually. Votes aren't reset after a dunk. So, the person knows that vote is there to stay until they can do something that gets it removed.

I have an idea on how to figure some things out, but it only works if innocentvillager flips mafia. If he doesn't flip mafia, I am at a loss.
Check the votes on IV and show me one good vote (one with what looks like good reasoning).

That WAS my explanation lol, sorry if my sarcasm doesn't come across well lol (I mean I didn't get your sarcasm either that one time).

I'm just going to be honest and say that at this point lack of activity is a scumtell because we are stalling this to death

And lack of activity is separate from having like less than 3 posts, I mean the people who are just barely keeping up with posting or posted a lot near the beginning and haven't done much recently (assuming no wagon on them)

I just want to flip someone, probably WLC.

I just realized you were talking about spicer here. How on earth is that a towny entrance post?

Nono is gut
can't say I didn't clarify this for you.

It's a great entrance post that scum is unlikely to make, just sit there for the rest of the game without any additional posts and let their inevitable wagon run up

Inactivity is a scumtell but not like... this kind of inactivity

Too scummy to be scum is what you're saying basically. I disagree, and can see scum coming in and see a wagon on them building and not be asked to post/effort their way out of it.
Also, who's gonna defend Spicer when there's literally nothing to defend?

Too scummy to be scum IS A TOWNTELL if there is no scum motivation for the action.

Like, demotivation and replacing out is scum-indicative. Sure, if you expect scum to play optimally, you can say "oh, scum doesn't do that because it's suicide" but sometimes they just do.

I get your reasoning though, and don't think you're scummy for believing that.

their buddies would probably at least divert the leading wagon elsewhere or call spicer LHF

I'm not saying he can't possibly be scum but what towntell isn't based off of probability?

Replacing out after a few posts and getting hammered could be scum indicative because that's a stressful situation and demotivating. This is not what happened to spicer.

Mm, still disagree that what's spicer's done is town-indicative, but I can see why you'd believe it.

I think inno arguing down a lhf dunk counterwagon with reasoning he seems to believe is a little towny?

I want to dunk one of these 3 today:
Wey
Elem
Inno

In that order of preference.

*Sigh* The guys already hinted "something", and I
immediately
got the hint. I trust all three have posted by now (although one appears to have posted only once??) so the problem should be solved. I'd get sus of someone who was avoiding this game but posting elsewhere. I'd be sus of someone who appeared to be online and then went off line without posting in the game. You actually CAN suspect people without them posting AT ALL in some cases, yes.

@Chelem - What's your mafia experience like?
First time I played mafia was during a school activity. After that, I've been playing online for the past few years, but not consistently. I would play for several months and then not.

Kind of want Nono to be modkilled. I haven't seen such a blatant lack of trying from post 1. Phone posting due to power going byebye.

@A50 - you're missing the point above. Wey already said in a prior post that he "suspected" them due to not posting. The question isn't about suspicion at that point, it's about reasoning. I don't really care about the argument of whether the suspicion is valid - that's semantics to me. What isn't semantics is that he is clearly calling them out for not posting.

I like these 2 votes in particular, I don't have any strong town reads.
Chemical Elements is playing like a wolf would I don't like the enterance voting 6 people, wolves tend to try and form wolf reads more aggressively because they think they have to, Weyouns town read Chemical for a very bad and null enterance, essentially 2 posts at time.
Here she is (and judging by how many females are actually in this game I regret the decision to join in as A50 when I could have had a hell of a time playing under AP) :twisted:

Note: AP is an alt of mine and is short for AUSTIN POWERS (it's in my sig). Can you imagine how awesome that would have been? Absolutely shagadelic baby, yeah! :lol:

I'm sure Hiraki is plotting this right now.

This is wrong. I'm absolutely convinced Hiraki will flip scum.

This is Hiraki literally describing his own behavior and attributing it to me.
