A Gentleman's Game of Guile, Subterfuge, and Intrigue (Fin)

[TheLonging]

Greetings friends. I shall like to offer you all a chance to be able to state your alignment with the villainous traitors please state so now. if not, when we find you we shall deal with you in a most justice way.

[TheLonging]

Dohoho, what is this, attempts as to scumhunt?

I shall not be joining in on this merry occasion of picking fellow gentlemen such as yourselves to place a, what do the uncivilized call it, a "vote" perhaps, without any reason or rhyme. I shall however point out that we must hang a noose around the adam's apple of a particular gentlemen here called vezok, as it is my policy.

vote: vezokpiraka

I can not think of a better more pronounced way to say the word "vote" and as such I shall use it.

[TheLonging]

Hence how I ask for a policy lynch on this rather curious fellow vezok

[TheLonging]

TheLonging, I am unfamiliar with the fellow you propose to policy lynch. I would be gratified if you could explain why you consider him unsuitable company for this occasion. Does he hog the buffet? Belch in front of the womenfolk? Utter naught but inanities?

Why yes, he does many of the unpleasant "activities" you so mention but in addition to that, he has a nasty habit of claiming roles at the most improper times and acting like a much lower class savage, being the town idiot and what not. A game I have played with him with Mr. Flay as the overseer was very much so proof of this.

This would be said game I was referring to.

[TheLonging]

Let it be known for the record that I believe that policy lynches of various "gentlemen", if you may call someone like vezok a gentleman, is an excellent play indeed. On the one hand, indeed if he flips town it shall be of most sadness, however, him being a savage it shall work well to not have someone so hurtful to town in the game (unless he indeed does prove himself that he shall be useful and not harmful). However, if he is scum, it is one less villain we shall have to face.

Hoppster I do believe I see where you are getting at for thinking he's scum but if you shall so tell us the reason so that my suspicions may be confirmed or denied.

Twistedspoon: Do you not see the links we have posted? Will you really count on him coming back from V/LA to post, and only confirm what we have been saying?

[TheLonging]

vezok's latest outburst of rambling nonsense only proves to myself that he has nothing of value to contribute to a discuss such as this. Please do tell us your thoughts on the game and gentlemen on here vezok

[TheLonging]

Also I bid you well him, I believe our paths have crossed at some point in the distant past?

Why do you find Spoon to be such a trustworthy fellow?

[TheLonging]

Well then people, I do believe that vezok won't help us.

Confirm My Casting Ballot On Lynching The Player Formally Known As vezokpiraka

[TheLonging]

I'm going to quickly abandon the gentleman talk for a short while because I have to hurry.

I'm going to ask all of you; why do you not have a vote on vezok? If you don't support the policy lynch, why? And don't give me the "He might be a PR" crap. Vezok is posting fluff in every single post he's making now. I'm going to assume that if you have a crappy reasoning for not lynching vezok, that vezok is scum with you. I'm serious. This has worked for me before in other games with policy lynches on irc and offsite.

When I come back I'll go answer you guys and not just skim page 4.

[TheLonging]

TheLonging continues to draw suspicion to himself by insisting on adherence to this daft policy; at least others have made tentative steps towards a body of evidence against him. Bearing no malice towards Sir kpaca, I must still note that thus far he has spoken less of serious subjects than Sir vezok. However, I see nobody measuring his neck for a hempen necktie.

Have I not presented good enough evidence for vezok being a wonderful policy lynch? I pointed out, along with others, how he doesn't contribute to town in nearly every single other gathering of gentlemen, and how he's a woeful detriment to town. As for his posts #2 and #6, they only state one read each and contribute nothing else. Everything else IS fluff.

(I'm sick so I don't feel like trying to stay in character )

[TheLonging]

Why d'you cons'er dat I won' provide contn't.

Because you're vezok?

[TheLonging]

he hasn't presented content all game, he's dodging helping (you saw that he hasn't provided reasons) and is posting fluff.

It's no longer policy.

[TheLonging]

Hoppster, as I can recall, 2. One WAY long ago, another more recent (the game I liked earlier). I lost track of which games I was in so it might be more.

[TheLonging]

"Kr0b freaked out because of a vote and asked for reasons. Townies don't do that. I didn't give reasons because I wanted to see his reaction. He is still scum."

The reaction test excuse, haven't seen THAT before.

[TheLonging]

I have yet to make a more detailed background check on TheLonging to see what his stance on policy lynches has been on past games, but for now I can say that I do not like this type of damned-if-you-do, damned-if-you-don't argumentation.

I don't know what I was like back in the past (2010), but my current stance: they are good if they are warranted or if I know the player enough to agree with reasons for a PL.

[TheLonging]

how have I hidden in the shadows?

I have the most posts in this thread

that's hardly hiding in shadows

I'll be back later to count how much of this is fluff

[TheLonging]

If we don't count RVS stuff and his triple posts, we can start counting his "real" posts at ISO #9, so I'll just put down the numbers that are the fluff (or mostly fluff (or in a few cases, just bad)) posts:

#12, #13, #14, #21, #22, #23, #24, #25, #26, #28, #30, #31, #34, #40, #50, #61

It's not much but there is quite a lot of nonsense and there were some posts that I considered putting down but they bordered legitimate and contributing at the least.

I'm gonna reread the thread

unvote

[TheLonging]

TheLonging + inHim: Thoughts on the Twistedspoon/Hoppster wagons please (and recent posts from us both).

I just wanna say this; after rereading, I do have a couple of people in mind that could be scum. However. I want to focus on only one person today.

unvote
vote: twistedspoon

[TheLonging]

TheLonging: is the Twistedspoon vote for something I've covered or something that I haven't?

Mixture of both.

[TheLonging]

My post where I showed all of his fluff.

ISO #66, ISO #61, ISO #56

those convinced me the most

[TheLonging]

DH knows me well, he'd probably try some stupid framing shit.

[TheLonging]

I am however suspicious of TheLonging, for a rather abrupt change of track from vezok to Twistedspoon.

It's called rereading

I'm sorry, but no. Don't try to brush off this as something as simple as re-reading.

TheLonging: It is impolite to keep secrets in company. What additional reasons do you have for finding Sir Twisted scummy?

You had to re-read to realise he was posting largely fluff?

A) It is rereading. I even said that I would reread the thread. Maybe you should read some more <_<
B) I didn't, I had to re read to see why he was scum and who he could be scum with.

[TheLonging]

TheLonging: You've said that one of the more convincing things for Twistedspoon being scum was his fluff, but then you've also said that you had to re-read to see why he was scum. Yet you've also said you didn't have to re-read to see his posts were largely fluff. I'm not quite sure how this matches up.

Also, who would you think is scum with Twistedspoon? I see no pro-town reason for witholding it, for if you are NK'd then we shall never know.

I pointed out the fluff before I even reread, I reread after to see why he was scum (town players can post fluff too), and I didn't reread the thread to see what posts of his were largely fluff because I did that before the reread.

My opinions are controversial but I'm saying vezok and kpaca

[TheLonging]

each of them have their own individual scumminess although there is some sort of connection between them

"I'd not be sorry if Sir Longing were the one to end up excluded from our gathering. The reread explanation does contrast with the fluff argument to an extent that he looks like a villain inventing explanations for his posts rather than a nobleman giving explanation. I prefer kr0b but will happily support a wagon on Sir Longing if one arises."

It's like you didn't even read what I posted

[TheLonging]

I can believe krob has exams, but his request to replace out comes after a vote.
