I'm still not at 100% (new meds always do a number on me), but I'm laying in bed and need something to do, so here we go:
doomchild
I'm unvoting Gentlefish for now, because I also need to remember to consider cock-ups before conspiracy.
I'm not ready to vote snow dwarf yet, but I definitely have some pretty strong suspicion about him.
Just so you're aware, this reticence to jump on a bandwagon isn't a good thing in my book. It also makes your previous vote on Gentlefish look like a massive OMGUS. Were you only voting for him because he was voting for you?
I knew somebody would eventually try to bust me for that, even though no, it wasn't a OMGUS situation. I voted for him because (as I stated at the time) his absolute certainty looked
super scummy to me (because only the mafia would know with true certainty who is and isn't town), and because his apparent willingness to lynch me over such shoddy evidence wasn't useful to town. I backed off after his explanation because he and I effectively made the same mistake (i.e. thinking
everybody else is being malicious, when in fact most of us are just totally inexperienced). I'm still not completely shed of my suspicion, but it's taken a backseat lately.
And as for the reason why I haven't jumped on the bandwagon, between being sick and wanting to be more sure before I vote again, I'm taking my time.
Doomchild:
fillipk, why haven't you posted yet? You're plotting with your scumbuddy, aren't you?
How serious was this question?
That was an RVS question. I wanted to ask something provocative, which is what I thought RVS was all about. You know, say something jarring, try to spur a reaction.
Yeah, you're right. I am going after lurkers. I suppose a lot of that would be that it seems (after reading previous games) that lurkers tend to do way more harm than good to town, and since I want to win, we need to get them to talk, right?
Voting lurkers doesn't usually work towards getting them active as they usually have non-game reasons for not posting. Voting active lurkers on the other hand can.
Noted. I'm learning all the time.
What I meant was that'd I be rereading everything and forming new opinions and as such plan what I'd post.
New opinions? Are you sure you don't mean that you needed to converse with your scumpal and come up with some dastardly scheme to bring down the rest of us townies?
What's wrong with rereading the thread and forming new opinions?
Absolutely nothing. That was, again, an RVS-style accusation, intended to get a reaction. One of the things I've learned is that there's a very definite change in tone between RVS and actual scumhunting, and I failed to recognize the timing, leading to me asking broadly accusatory questions when more probing examination is called for.
Doomchild is probably highest on my list of suspicions (This was written before snow child posted the post for which I voted him for). I've found some of his questions and scumhunting strategies questionable so far in a scummy way
EP has the highest post count, so according to the notquitethere theory he's probably town, and I have yet to see anything to contradict that possibility.
Lynching D1 is always the best way to find scum in a BM.
The other questions are RVS questions.
So, presumably, you found something(s) in snow dwarf's posts scummier than mine. What was it/were they?
To anybody who sees my not want to post my scum list scummy. I really don't understand why would you vote on me just because of the fact that I didn't post my list. The reason behind me not posting it is just because I didn't have the list down on paper cause everything in my mind was changing so fast and I thought that I won't write it down until I get some better suspicions.
I can't speak for everybody else, but someone intentionally withholding information just feels super scummy to me. If you have a suspicion, put it out there. Think before you speak, of course, but don't tease something like that, because then everybody is going to assume you're holding back, and why would you hold back unless you wanted the town to lose?
I know I'm probably the biggest suspect.... but if I'm mafia (I'm not saying that I am) and I am nervous so why don't keep me for later and I guess you could try to get out of me who is the second scum (not like I know who he is) and you can always lynch me later.
I don't see how this isn't you claiming to be mafia,
snow dwarf.
Replacement Request. Stuff's going down.
Boo! Feel better. OR ELSE.
