I'm concerned about how everyone is quick to jump on the bandwagon. It's true that DP's quick lynch is scummy, but that doesn't mean it's a scumtell.
I'd like to at least hear a better defense from DP other than it being accidental. He's pulled this kind of thing before, and I highly doubt it can be unintentional.

BUMP over the closed threads.
Also, DP, you're two from lynch. I know our reasoning for wagoning you is not the strongest around, but it's frankly the best we have. It helps me feel good about it that you actually haven't said anything this game (seriously, go check his posts out, he hasn't commented on the game at all!)
My vote's sticking on until there's good reason for me to move it. I don't trust you.

Im worried that everyone is posting outside the thread rather then inside. I find the people inside the thread a little bit more trust worthy as they have nothing to hide. It must be worse for people who have had no pms at all they must feel out the loop.(assumeing there telling the truth)
Noone is helping matters by being coy. Lets at least all agree on all posting are thoughts thus far.
I feel that DP may wll be scum but I dont like the way no-one is really pushing it. To me this game started like that and town got lynched. I for one dont want to see thay happen again.The odds are going to be very short if we post minimal and and punish maxium..

What more do you want me to say? There is nothing to elaborate on. It was a mistake, I did not expect that at page 2 I would already be dropping the lynching vote, so I did not think of counting.
Lynch me if you think I'm a scumbag stupid enough to do something so evident. Do not lynch me if you give me more credit than that.

I mean that the person bringing the bandwagon just one vote away from the hammer is taking the risk that:
- someone does not notice, joins the bandwagon and hammers (like me)
- someone puts on the next vote in an almost simulpost, thus hammering without intending (something I've seen happening before).
This is therefore just as "scummy" as dropping the hammer whilst still on page 2.

I beg to differ. In my experience scum tend to play more careful than town, and are therefore less prone to make stupid mistakes.Being stupid has nothing to do with scumminess.

We can't expect you to immediately be innocent just because scum wouldn't do a careless mistake like it. That's pretty much WIFOM logic.I beg to differ. In my experience scum tend to play more careful than town, and are therefore less prone to make stupid mistakes.
I happened to use that kind of defense before, and I can tell you that it doesn't work very well.

No it doesn't. However, it does prove that being stupid has no corollation with being scum.Dragon Phoenix wrote:I agree with that, but on the other hand it also does not make me automatically scum, now does it?
I'm a bit suspicious of the lurkers.

Wouldn't that potentially give you plenty of time to talk to people with the intention of building a fake claim? It seems like, should you be scum, the mechanics of this game make it perfect for you to want to wait as long as possible before claiming.Dragon Phoenix wrote:I'll wait for the lurkers to show up.
I want a claim ASAP.

I agree but it is up to the town to be pro active why cant certain players just post so we can get this claim.Aelyn wrote:Wouldn't that potentially give you plenty of time to talk to people with the intention of building a fake claim?

That's only because some people haven't posted as much as they should to contribute in the first place. If they had, there would be more to discuss.N_lich wrote:I'd like a claim- I don't see a better avenue of discussion for the moment.
It's true that waiting gives scum more time to discuss, but it also works the other way around. I don't see why scum should get the advantage when everyone else can be doing the same. The only problem is whether your taking it or not.
