You are to make a post, stating why you are not scum, and why I should not lynch you today. This post must contain a minimum of FIVE (5) statements in your own defense. These statements must use logic and evidence. Emotional appeals and claims of "I'm not scum!" will not fly with me. You may cite posts in this thread, or you may cite posts elsewhere. If you cite posts elsewhere, I'd appreciate a link. Not making such a post is grounds for lynching.
I still think that this is a scummy move. It's hard enough to come up with 5 statements and with that, you'd almost have to reveal your role. Granted, it's always nice to have more information about the town, but it's nicer to be able to verify it. Thus why I like the Vote Counter method myself. Here, if you are scum, you can expect the townies to tell the truth and can use their information to choose targets.
I suppose I should have mentioned that I can't split my vote, meaning that I cannot kill you all at once.
Yes, you really should have.
Let's see, I didn't want to WIFOM the town with your lists. I correctly (I don't care what anybody says) asked the infinity voter to use his power before we hit lylo. I haven't been lurking, although I guess you could say I haven't been as active as possible. Also, I'm not going to push a lynch on you if you don't die tonight. That's 100% grade A bullshit WIFOM right there, which I am NOT falling for. Well, unless you do something stupid, of course, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. I mean, think about it. If I were you and I was scum, I would of kept silent, trying to get to lylo with unlimited votes in tact. Not sure if I could get away with that, mind you, but that's what I would do if I was scum in your shoes. I guess you could be scum, so I'll keep my eyes open, but I'm doubting it at this point.
I'll come up with some more stuff tomorrow, I'm drawing a blank at the moment.
FAKE EDIT: To the people who don't want to explain to Free Beer: Enjoy getting lynched.
If Free Beer is scum, I wouldn't ignore the possibility of the other scum posting their "defenses" in the idea that it will make them look more townlike. It's entirely possible to come up with lists of stuff you've done (as long as you haven't bee lurking).
Hmm, strange. Free Beer, you being fine with being lynched makes you even more scummy, imo. It's also stupid. Doesn't matter what team you're on, you should at least vote off somebody else. If you're town, you should be ok with lynching somebody else and yourself. If you're scum, you still might be ok with getting lynched, trying to trick everybody into thinking you're town, but you really shouldn't be. I have no idea why you would be ok with getting lynched, but I don't like the fact you are. In any case, Free Beer, you really should vote somebody else off. Doesn't matter if you're the Pandarsenic role for whatever reason you want to be, you should go after and lynch the scum. Period. Anything else is scummy.
Agreed. Well, not with the "someone else" being me, but I do agree in principle. Asking for everyone to lynch you doesn't make sense unless that would guarantee that someone else is clear (I don't think this is possible this time around).
Mr.Person, Free Beer has done enough suspicious actions, so just voting him is excusable.
Yes he has been suspicious. So has Mr.Person. But with this post, so have you. I'm not saying that Org should have strictly defended his vote, but rather that this posts looks like scum trying to distance themselves from someone who is likely to end up dead at some point in the next two days.
If I was scum and I was going to encourage him to super-lynch, I would of done it in the scum-chat. In fact, if I was scum, he would of just lynched a townie and be done with it. WIFOM, I know, but it really is true. This is making me think there isn't anybody who's really good on the scum-team. Of course, there's WIFOM, so there you go. Too much WIFOM for my tastes. In any case, when I wanted him to lynch, I wanted him to lynch who he thought was suspicious. Of course, since either he's a townie who literally has no suspicions or a scum who doesn't want to associate with anybody, it's a moot point. Still, if he's going to copy the Pandarsenic role, we could wait til tomorrow and name-kill him and Pandarsenic. On the other hand, I think Pandarsenic is town and Free Beer is a really stupid townie or a really stupid scum, so yeah. Unvote and vote Free Beer. Your refusal to name any suspicions is what gets me. Of course, we SHOULD all do his little exercise, not for his benefit, but for the town's. The fact that nobody else wanted to do it is something I find suspicious.
Wait wait wait, how many scum are there alive and how many players are there alive total?
But now it's too late. Maybe it was a better idea to try to get as much information from the town as possible earlier, but now that that hasn't worked, you are (also) trying to distance yourself from Free Beer.
On the other hand, I think Pandarsenic is town and Free Beer is a really stupid townie or a really stupid scum, so yeah.
Pot. Kettle. Black. Let's see: your post insults me, votes for me, and is filled to the brim with inconsistencies. You are obviously trying to bait me into using my unlimited votes against you. Such a plan will only work if you are town and I am scum. Since I am town, your plan autofails. So yeah.
If you (Free Beer) and Mr.Person are both scum, of course you wouldn't vote for him. If you are town and he is scum, then why wouldn't you vote for him? The ommision of this from your list of possiblies seems kind of strange.
Wait...what if Free Beer doesn't actually have any votes today? ToonyMan used his power yesterday, so he'd have 0 votes today. It's possible that Webadict set up the system so that the Copycat voter can't just vote for the Unlimited/Infinity voter after they use their power to get the power.
If that's the case, then he's pulling a gambit and can't actually lynch anyone (which may be why he's been so wishy-washy about it).
I can confirm that this is not the case. If it were, I'd have tried to keep a low profile today.
I think people should just let me live until tomorrow. I PM'd webadict about time delays earlier today and he answered that there are none. My plan is foolproof; I can lay the Pandarsenic issue to rest once and for all, and anyone who still thinks I am scum can use one of the no doubt numerous modkill conditions attached to Pandarsenic's role to off me then.
Unless you asked web, how could you confirm that? It could be possible. And there's no real way for the rest of us to know because the original owner of that role and the person who revealed it are both dead and you're the only (remaining) person that would be likely to get an official answer.
And what was this about time delays? I missed that whole conversation.
Wonderful. A sociologist would have a field day.
One of those would have a field day on any normal day on the Bay12 forums!
Yeah, using your power was smart, and it seems to have been used very well. I commend you.
I also thought you'd kill me off for spearheading a bandwagon against you.
Which is one reason why I'm still somewhat suspicious of you. You haven't posted terribly much of content and you aren't being targetted. In addition to reasoning from yesterday (game time).
Oh, and general comment: I'm not necessarily one of the more dangerous roles (from my point of view). I can prove it if you want me to, but there are bigger problems then me still around.
