WOO HOOO DAY TWOOOO

Folks

Firestarter: Yes, it would be cool to hear from you, if you are still around

Pug89: Regardless of the timing, I agree with KoC about your hypocrisy.

Knight of Cydonia: Got nothin' to say to you.

ortolan: Active as only ort can be.

Kublai Khan: You neither.

Porkens: you know it

Soveliss (in need of replacement)

Pesco47: You're last post is really chaffing my craw. After a lot of town discussion about how important it was to lynch ASAP, you throw mud on KoC about hammering.

So, priority one today seems to be "can we hear from FireStarter."

Other than that, I've got two people blinking suspicious at me.

And, we're in Osaka, that's always cool.

Why does your suspicion on me feel like OMGUS? Scum tend to have shorter tempers when someone fingers them out of the blue. If you got a case on me, bring it on.

I can point out via the mod-post one thing that guarantees I do not have communication access to other players, clearing me of being a scum or mason. I'm the only person to answer the question and get it wrong. You can see from that I did not have anyone to tell me the answer.

Y'know, I might have considered that as an actual possibility if someone else had made that argument. Saying "Look how townie I am" tends to invoke the opposite response.

Did you attempt to answer it? If so, what was your answer?

Pesco47 · Post Post #353 (ISO) » Tue Jan 20, 2009 5:15 am

I answered Clue

C from October
L from April
U from August
E from one of the 4 -ember months

Knight of Cydonia · Post Post #354 (ISO) » Tue Jan 20, 2009 5:26 am

How on Earth did you get October?
Also, much as I hate to admit it, people shouldn't really have needed a mason/scum buddy, since the answer to that question was on WikiAnswers.

Pesco47 · Post Post #355 (ISO) » Tue Jan 20, 2009 5:40 am

All I had was my phone browser and a normal calendar at the time. It spelt out a plausible word so I took it.

Is it really? I really need to read the source materials.

This seems like an overly defensive reaction on the one point I brought up. Why

did

you condemn only KoC when both myself and Ort were asking for a hammer?

In addition, why didn't you unvote if you were that concerned about it?

I had to dictionary.com each part of the question, so I understand getting it wrong, especially if you had to try to do it all on a cell phone.

However, this "I got the question wrong so I must be town" is complete WIFOM, I can't believe you'd have the gaul to put it forth.

halfwaytovoting: Pesco

Pesco47 · Post Post #357 (ISO) » Tue Jan 20, 2009 7:55 am

It's a useful fact for confirming myself, which no other player can use, therefore I will use it to my advantage. Your reaction to what I've done is a clear scumtell that I've developed for use on another site I play on.
-When faced with a swingy action, overpowered role/claim or setup loophole, scum's first reaction is to discredit it. No townie has ever claimed such a thing to be impossible and will get straight to clearing things up with the mod instead.

KoC made a post giving reason to hold off and give the mod time, yet hammered less than 2 hours later. Even before that, I asked that all active players be accounted for by seeing a post from them. At that stage, it was Badguy missing only. Ort and KoC said hammer if there were no objections, you didn't care for objections at all throughout. And how am I supposed to unvote when the guy gets hammered? There was no reason for me to unvote at any time before since I was the one that was pushing the case.

Your halfwaytovoting is a real poor show of your commitment to scumhunting. If you're going to call me scummy, then vote me proper instead of giving these half actions. I'm calling this a connection-forging attempt too, since when you flip scum, I'd get lined up for lynching by interaction analysis.

Vote Porkens

Your posts have been full of fluff and here you pick at weak points to try call me scummy.

Firestarter · Post Post #358 (ISO) » Tue Jan 20, 2009 8:03 am

Howdy doody all!!!

Hope y'all enjoying the game...

Ok, first of all..

KOC

, Im extremely saddened to hear the news about you, I wish you all the best on the road to recovery.

2ndly, Im just back from work guys, and wil not be posting thoughts right now.

However, Ill be back tonight, possibly tommorow, with a brief synopsis on yesterday.

Porkens · Post Post #359 (ISO) » Tue Jan 20, 2009 8:17 am

How would I go about "clearing this up with the mod?"

Your post doesn't make a lot of sense. But, your strengthening my suspicion with your OMGUS, so...

vote: Pesco

Pesco47 · Post Post #360 (ISO) » Tue Jan 20, 2009 8:39 am

Just goes to show how weak your case on me is when I can counter your points before you can think of them.

Porkens · Post Post #361 (ISO) » Tue Jan 20, 2009 9:00 am

Are you descending into madness, or what?

Pesco47 · Post Post #362 (ISO) » Tue Jan 20, 2009 9:11 am

@mod: Really sorry to add to the replacement load

I've just received word that my grandfather has passed away. I will not be able to commit any further to my games.

I ask that you don't post your condolences as it would just distract the game.

Knight of Cydonia · Post Post #363 (ISO) » Tue Jan 20, 2009 9:51 am

Oh, Pesco, that sucks.
Porkens continues to worry me - it feels like he has to give some justification, some stretching out to his thought process, when really he just wants to go "OMG U SUCK VOTE PESCO OLOL". Since TAX and Aoshi, my two main suspects, are dead, I'll just have to drop to my No. 3 for now.

Vote: Porkens

But the first clue was "start at the second month and go back by 4". You shouldn't really need a calender at all. You got the rest of it, but you forgot that November comes after October? And you had a calender handy?

Pesco47 wrote:It's a useful fact for confirming myself

Town's goal isn't to find ways to confirm themselves, it's to find scum. Scum's goal is to try to find ways to "confirm" themselves as townies.

If you hadn't dropped the game I would have voted you as well. (Sorry about your grandpop though)

ortolan · Post Post #365 (ISO) » Tue Jan 20, 2009 7:41 pm

Waiting on replacements are we?

Anyway I would have needed more time to decide if one of Porkens/Pesco was scum or if they're both town at each other's throats.

Knight of Cydonia · Post Post #366 (ISO) » Wed Jan 21, 2009 3:57 am

A note for replacements - look how Porkens is completely failing to make a case against me D2. It's just "Got nothin to say to you".

Porkens · Post Post #367 (ISO) » Wed Jan 21, 2009 4:06 am

Why would I make a case on you?

Knight of Cydonia · Post Post #368 (ISO) » Wed Jan 21, 2009 10:21 am

Well "Got nothin' to say to you" seems a bit hostile. I assumed I was one of your two "blinking suspicious" at you.

Porkens · Post Post #369 (ISO) » Wed Jan 21, 2009 10:39 am

You missunderstood or I didn't convey myself clearly. I had nothing to say "about" you, and no, you're not blinking suspicious like Pug and Pesco.

Sorry for the confusion.

Knight of Cydonia · Post Post #370 (ISO) » Wed Jan 21, 2009 11:18 am

Ah, right.
Shame, 'cause you're pretty suspicious from where I'm standing.

Dean Harper · Post Post #371 (ISO) » Wed Jan 21, 2009 2:13 pm

So... my macbook's hardrive failed for some unidentified reason. I am sending it in for a replacement and should have it back within the next 10 days. Until then, I will be less attentive to this game due to the lack of a computer. Please forgive me if replacements come later than expected because of this. Looking for Soveliss and Pesco47 replacements. EVERYBODY ELSE BETTER STAY IN THE GAME.

Knight of Cydonia · Post Post #372 (ISO) » Thu Jan 22, 2009 3:05 am

Well, right now it seems to be me and Porkens.

Mod: I guess it's futile to ask for a round of prods?

Kublai Khan · Post Post #373 (ISO) » Thu Jan 22, 2009 6:36 am

I'm here. I'm planning a major re-read on the week-end, so hopefully I can kick-start conversation a bit then.

Firestarter · Post Post #374 (ISO) » Thu Jan 22, 2009 9:40 am

Guys, Im away with work for the weekend and into next week...

Its highly unlikely im gonna be able to post my D1 thoughts before Wednesday.
