How? Why? As a (literal) professional pedant, I would nitpick at the misinterpretation of the word 'serendipitous' regardless of alignment.

I think I can see why Protector is voting Zar, and if it's what I'm thinking of then I agree with it.

If it's what I'm thinking then it's nowhere near worth this secretive approach.

UNVOTE: Protector, VOTE: Lia

Read serrendipitous as duplicitous.

UNVOTE: egg

Some questions for everyone

How much forum mafia experience do you have, mafia scum or otherwise?
Are you the mafia?
How many games were released on the N64 in North America? Guesses only please if you google you are scum

Ignoring the questions in #52; two-and-a-bit pages in they are even more unhelpful and unnecessary than they would have been in post 1. You clearly think that there are reads to be had, based on your #51, so that's a pretty pointless tack to then take.

Why do you think I am more likely to vote for Lia as scum than town?

So why didn't you ask him what he meant by his comment rather than just telling him he got it wrong? And more to the point, why didn't you leave his question to me for me to answer? It gives me the impression that you're not interested in seeing how we respond because you already know our alignments.

Maybe. But Zar hasn't responded to it yet.

I didn't leave it because I am a compulsive pedant. I want to know what he thinks based on a correct interpretation of the events of this thread, not an incorrect one. He got it wrong, I had to correct him.

At any rate, wondering what he could possibly mean by his comment is obviously not an interesting exercise. He was clearly saying that if you didn't think it was a good wagon, you should have unvoted. That's not an insightful revelation into his alignment.

CD is shutting down discussion on the fact that Dritan sheeped on something and then admitted he didn't know what he was sheeping. Also CD, you should answer my first question at the very least.

Since when am I shutting down discussion? I'm not saying that you should leave Dritan alone. I'm correcting his mistake and waiting to see what he does with that knowledge; we haven't yet seen how that changes his opinion on Lia. I've not called him town, I've not demanded that everyone pile on Lia with me and ignore him. This is misrepresentative.

Also CD, you should answer my first question at the very least.

The answer to that question is very easily available to you with a quick glance at my join date and post count. If you need to ask newer users if they've played elsewhere, be my guest, but the information on me is already there.

Also, my username is generally abbreviated to CDB (I may be an old-timer, but not old enough to be the first in line to be called CD).

Why is it more worthwhile for you to be asking him what he thinks of Lia calling the wagon surreptitious than the fact he sheeped something then asked what he was sheeping? You are moving the discussion on to something that gives him an easy out

This sentence makes it click a bit more; I understand where you're coming from better now. As I've said, I corrected him out of reflex, but I hadn't quite twigged that #47 raises those question (I was stuck in a teaching mindset).

There's no reason why he can't answer both, of course.

Lia, fair on your reasons for staying on the wagon. I had that same twinge. But what makes you think I wanted to unvote?

Not Mafia, how is CDB's vote OMGUS? Because of that one comment from Lia? CDB has more experience than that. And to answer your experience question, uhhh I'd guess I've probably played between 200-300 games in the last six years.

LOL at the thought that CDB is "shutting down discussion". Seriously, what?

Well the vote wasn't explicitly justified and I explained my thoughts just above.

I was pressuring him mainly, post 60 assuaged any doubts I had.

Are you implying anything with it? That protector probably isn't scum?

How so?

A couple of CDB's posts are making me think he's protecting Dritan a bit.

I don't see in what way he's protecting dritan, can you elaborate?

Looks more like a newbie to me than scum. Why is he scummy?

I don't like any of your contributions so far. Your short-lasting attack on cdb was pitiful and now you go for the noob.

VOTE: not mafia

-Tier

Why are pictures suspicious?

I didn't see CDB's justification for voting Lia

And how about we just let Dritan respond instead of excusing him as a newb.

As for post 52, question 1 is perfectly fine and 2 and 3 are harmless, they can help check people's attitudes

just a year on ms
yes but dont vote me im a vengeful mafia
i dunno n64 was a little bit shit it was probably like 150

I was gonna RVS Kid A for the Radiohead name and the Spiritualized avatar but then I went V/LA and missed my role PM so I hate you all for being more on top of this than me.

Protector's reaction to getting fake-hammered works for me. Not_Mafia's weak banter with CDB and pursuit of Lia doesn't, but I'm not sure yet if it's scummy. But it's page 3, so I'm okay with a on that level of evidence.

I'm also looking forward to the eventual conversation between Zar and Protector, as I think there could be something there one way or another.

Why was this the only thing with which you engaged?

Earthquake, yeah I lean towards that being a town reaction from protector. What about Dritan stands out as town to you?

Preview edit: (Qull) I look forward to your thoughts on the Zar/Protector thing.

I'm not going to get involved in the Not_Mafia vote, by the way. Townread.

You choose not to share? Why not? And no, I didn't really find your vote change interesting.

In post 44, Egg wrote:Hmm. I actually didn't notice that comment from Lia was coming from the first vote on the wagon. I'm kind of curious why Lia stayed on the wagon at that point.

So... Epiphanies of RVS votes turned serious don't sit well with me, actually. I find its easier for mafia-aligned players to find an excuse to not move their votes. Not really much of a fan of Lia's argument and move-out after Egg called her out.

(And yes, for those interested, I liked Channel's vote on Lia.)

Pictures usually mean you want to be liked.

Then, why was cdb's vote scummy? And still standing, why is dritan scummy?

In post 69, Egg wrote:What about Dritan stands out as town to you?

Uh, nothing in particular. I have not said or implied Dritan was town.

<-Earthquake beat me to this, but I like the irony so I'm keeping it there.

Earthquake, post 63 you said he looked for newb than scum. I took that as his newbishness looked town to you.
