The mafia is you, is what I'm getting at.

Iam, I'm saying your not town becuase you displayed a lack of knowledge of the town's win condition. I'm not entirely sure that that makes you scum, but it does mean that you're not allied with the town.
Also, there are other, non-scum non-town factions that can exist. They are anti town (since they don't share the town win condition) and thus eventually need to be lynched.

I displayed a highly paranoid misinterpretation of the town's win condition. I was told that, for the town to win, all other factions must die. Yosarian admitted that he was not aligned with the town. I don't see how it's so difficult to understand the leap I made there.remussaidow wrote:Iam, I'm saying your not town becuase you displayed a lack of knowledge of the town's win condition.

Huh?Grimmy wrote: I also did not like both of you stating how pointless it is to lynch you.
Tha also seems anti-town to me.
I said it's pointless to lynch me today. Because it is. It's a waste of a town lynch. And yes, I'm not pro-town, survivor is not a pro-town role. So what?
Is there some reason you're trying to get the town to waste their lynch today, Grimmy?

Because faction refers to a group of people, where as a survivor is only one. Thus, Yos, as a survivor, is not a faction, by definition. Thus him winning via surviving does not affect the town in the slightest.iamausername wrote:

So, by your definition, if there was an SK in the game, we wouldn't have to worry about lynching them either?
Posted: Wed Jul 30, 2008 6:14 am
an SK can prevent the town from being the only GROUP left because he can kill one of the group every night. So the town couldn't win until the SK was dead.
Posted: Wed Jul 30, 2008 6:17 am
That's not the town win condition though. The town wins when all other factions are dead. The SK, according to you, is not a faction, since he's only one player. Therefore, by your definition, the town would win if only town-aligned players and the SK were alive.
Posted: Wed Jul 30, 2008 6:25 am
I've already argued against this point, if you still want to believe (falsely) that I think the town can win with the SK alive, that's your problem.
Posted: Wed Jul 30, 2008 6:28 am
No, I don't think you think that, I'm just pointing out that not thinking that contradicts your assertion that the word 'faction' can't possibly refer to a single player, which is the entire basis of your case against me.

My vote is not on you. It is on Iam. he is playing very anti-town with the OMGUS vote and the WIFOM arguements. So it is not a wasted lynch to get rid of someone who is not helping the town.Yosarian2 wrote:Huh?Grimmy wrote: I also did not like both of you stating how pointless it is to lynch you.

more to follow, I haver another point, but I need to find a post to back it up

It's actually still on Nocmen.Grimmy wrote:My vote is not on you. It is on Iam.

umm.. no. Don't put words in my mouth, Iam, it doesn't do anyone any good. I said you displayed lack of knowledge of the standard win condition. Since this is the scummiest that's happen so far today, its what my vote is based on for now.
Posted: Wed Jul 30, 2008 6:44 am
Unvote
Ill put it back later
I need food.

this game makes my head hurt...yet its more fun than most of the others.

Show me where I displayed lack of knowledge of the standard win condition without first making the base assumption that 'faction' can't possibly refer to a single person.remussaidow wrote:umm.. no.

. You seem to basing you, and rem, vote solely on the fact that Iam was paranoid over the win condition in the townie PM. Your vote, however, seems different. I don't know what it is, maybe its that your not really pressing on him that much or that you unvoted him then revoted him after post 440 where I got no scum vibes from.Posted: Thu Jul 31, 2008 6:17 am

"Except, if it happened, it seems that the Question and the Answer would just cancel each other out, and take the Universe with them, which would then be replaced by something even more bizarrely inexplicable. It is possible that this has already happened, but there is a certain amount of uncertainty about it."
Remussaidow's V/LA status is noted - once again, sincere thanks for keeping thy Mod informed!
Also, Battousai was right. Dammit. - Tar
EDIT: Cavebear with a toothache and Jex have both failed to post for at least 96 hours. They are both being prodded and have each received a Rules Infraction for Rule 15 violation.

I don't think that IAM is a lyncher type role, but don't know what he is at this point or why he has the information he does. I haven't yet decided what to think of him, but I don't think lynching him today will do any good since we don't know yet if yos is telling the truth or not.
If yos is still around tomorrow then we know he is lying and can deal with that, but again, no use lynching him today until we know.
I reread through grimmy, and while nothing in particular stands out as scum, something about him just rubs me the wrong way. I can't quite put my finger on what it is. I don't like that he won't let the issue of yos and iam wait a day. When the conversation changed to another topic, he jumped back onto iam immediately almost like he was afraid that people would stop looking at iam if we talked about something new.
I realize that the yos and iam situation is interesting, but like I've said, I don't think we will draw many conclusions from it today and therefore don't understand why grimmy wants to keep so much attention on it.

Jex's V/LA status is noted. Telling the Mod you're V/LA keeps the Rules Infractions away!
Also, if this pace keeps up you'll fail the next Deadline Review (I was nice for the last one).

I miss Mac, he kept the discussion up.
Grimmy, don't you think Iam's behaviour could be associated with a townie who was paranoid over the word factions and yos being a survivor?
