My vote is not staying on him because he is useless. My vote, personally, is staying right there because he seems scummy to me. He keeps posting to say he's sorry for not posting, but still doesn't actually say anything. To me this is highly suspicious. Yes, it could be that he just isn't interested, but I think it makes more sense to assume that he is acting oddly, because the game isn't far enough along for someone to think, "Oops, this isn't the cool game I thought it'd be, I'm dropping out." He signed up for it, why lose interest that fast?

HA HA! I just have to laugh at this post, I'm sorry but ok how does me not caring make me scum? I mean honestly, if I was scum I would be paying more attention to this game, would you? I would be enthusiastic like Fishbulb, not to say that he scum but I would want to play this game more. Sorry if my excuse is lame but who was the judge as to what excuse is lame? Defiantly not you Tam or Fishbulb, you two aren't going with your instincts and what you observe. Most people who lynch because of lurking turn out to be town, and in the long run you will look like scum. I already said sorry for making a mistake by forgetting I was in this game. I'm not going to claim for people lurker hunting me, especially in the beginning of day one. Come back to me and ask me to claim when I've actually said something scummy. You all make me sick.

Thank you Tal, but apparently they to hear it from me.

Well, popsicle...why ARE you staying away from this game? You come in and so far have been ppretty vague and at times downright causstic (IMO).

And you have yet to honestly add anything of value that I can tell. So if you're not scum then why is the interest level not there? Did they make you Hanky the Christmas Poo or something?

well I see no reason to move my vote off of popsiclestix. He comes in and does nonsense.

Im just glad someone is getting lynched. At this point, it doesnt matter who it is.

It's heartening to see that Popsiclestix is refusing to claim. DP would be very proud!

I dunno... it is day 1 but I feel we could find a better lynchee than PS today. Unlike IS, I don't mind waiting a little while.

But I know that someone sitting there 1 vote away from a lynch is just too enticing for most people... so if you've got an important role I'd encourage you to claim ASAP popsicle.

upon review

PopsicleStix, for your information, I did not ask you to claim, nor did anyone else EXCEPT Talitha, who seems to almost always play that way.

However, I REALLY don't like your attitude, nor your generalisations or assumptions about people's attitudes. Simply because of that, and because we've lost two scum on the first night and have SOME breathing room,



Give a decent defence where you actually contribute the discussion, and I might consider chasing some of the real scum hiding in the shadows.

blackshadowshade: In your post you seem to assume that popsiclestix is town, yet you want to lynch him anyway? Especially where you say you "might consider chasing some of the scum" if he contributes.

Popsiclestix isn't getting anywhere NEAR annoying enough for me to want to lynch him purely for annoyingness. If you think he's scum, cool, vote for him. If you think he's not scum, don't. It's pretty simple.

Oh and

You have to see Popsicle more as a virginal sacrifice for the purpose of appeasing the great mafia gods.

Actualy bss, Bloojay asked me to claim back at post #40. If you don't like my attitude don't vote me for it, a lot of people don't like my attitude, they think I'm way too rebelious. You don't need to vote me for this, and definatly don't vote me if you don't think I'm scum. I'm going to try and find the scum here.

That last post was just way to wrong, about so many things. And for all of you who want a better excuse, I'm not going to give you one. This is your game, decide for yourself, but remember the conciquences.

I also

I agree with Talitha on this one. It sounds like you want to lynch someone, even though you seem to acknowledge that he may be town. And yes we do have breathing room with two scum down. However, I think we should focus on keeping it that way instead of just lynching "because we can"

for emitting an overall scummy vibe.

mwahahha, I love it when Popsicles strategy works.

I feel like I'm watching a tennis match!!! I'm nnot gonna change my vote just yet cause popsicle still hasn't contributed much except for deflecting everyone's eyes away from him (bravo...well done BTW) but

5 - Blackshadowshade (Talitha, Popsiclestix, Peacebringer, Mr. Gnome it all, Internet Stranger)
4 - Popsiclestix (Fishbulb, Jediknight, Tam, Blackshadowshade)
1 - Tam (Bloojay)

blackshadowshade--you got anything to claim best be doing it.

to give hiim chance to speak

Gotcha, target! I KNEW that post would bring some of you out of the woodwork.




As for claiming, if you vote me out, I doubt that the town is losing much more than a townie, but I'm not sure. Read what you will into that.

Ummm.. can you explain your "gotcha" comment and the vote on Peacebringer please bss?

okay here it comes another person with a gotcha based on my play style--lol

Weird--

would like to here more from him before revote if at all possible.

Its just throwing crap at the wall like a rabid coked-out monkey in hopes that we get distracted and dont lynch him.

IS-

tell me exaclty where you have seen a rabid coked-out monkey...

OK, here's my explanation. Usually (as in the few games I've read of him since he got here to MafiaScum), PeaceBringer is a rather verbose and frequent poster. In this game, he's been rather quiet, and not explained awfully much of what he's been doing. All he's been doing is throwing votes around, following the crowd. A rather easy way of accessing the bandwagon without being noticed ...

BTW, IS, your comment in Post 69 could apply equally to PopsicleStix in Post 59 -- except that I gave him an easy way out of his predicament.

Not that I begrudge you the attack, PopsicleStix -- I would have tried the same myself.

If any of you want to have a look at my play style, you only have one resource -- Newbie 49. Look at it or not -- I don't awfully mind, since one game doesn't say awfully much.

I agree with BSS, in fact i was going to post something similar about how PeaceBringer is just in fact following the bandwagon and posting quite crappily IMHO (I've seen this before....I've done it )

I know everyone has moved on, but ol' Pops made me laugh.

Yeah, you just said that you were sorry and left again. I wasn't voting to hear you claim, but to either get you active, or to replace you. Apathy is worse than lurking, in my opinion.

I really can't imagine who would think you were "too rebellious". Forgetting you signed up for a game, and even after realizing it, needing to be one away from a lynch before talking... How is that rebellious?

Ooh, what profound wisdom from someone who can't even be bothered to pay attention to what is going on.

Anyway, at least he finally posted something. Of course, it is of zero use since he didn't address anything about the game, but at least it is something. I gotta read the whole blackhawkshade stuff again before commenting on that.

So are we lynching someone ore not? We need more wisdom from Tally
