Approximately 27 hours remain, with extensions by extensions by Webadict, ToonyMan, Magmadeath, Dakarian

Now start posting more people, don't just call for an extension!

[Mr.Person]

Hi, everyone.  Back.  I'll do some proper reading soon, but to start off with:

Webadict's attack on dakarian seems odd and vague.  He writes a lot in the attack, but it really doesn't amount to much.  He basically asks Dak for an explanation and gets annoyed when he's given one.

There seems to have been some lurking, but at the same time, this shouldn't prevent us from scumhunting.  With that in mind, Mr.Person, you've been very eager to jab at people, but haven't contributed much of your own.  What are your suspicions?

Meph is the cybrid, I think Webadict is a regular Imperial, I'm not sure about Dakarian. I haven't looked at other people both because they haven't said much and because, you know, Meph is the cybrid. Nobody else is screaming out being scum, but I'm going to have to reread.

In the meantime, lemme throw out a few questions/statements:

@dakarian, MagmaDeath: Why did you guys ask for extensions? Hell, I guess I'll ask ToonyMan, as well.

@Archangel: If you don't post in the next 24 hours, I will vote you.

To answer Mr. Person's question I wasn't voting for the lurkers because it was still (literal) day one and some people may not have had a chance to even read the thread yet. So, not necessarily any information there.

As for whether or not the remaining 7 players seem not-cultish...they had at least posted. No, I don't have enough information on them to say they're not the cybrid. No one does. But they had at least shown up.

And, no, I wasn't pressuring anyone too much. Mostly because my pressuring of dakarian got me jumped on and I had to spend some time defending myself.

On the upside, I'm more awake today.

Alright, but you had better be back with some legitimate suspscions by tomorrow, because this crap doesn't cut the mustard. You're not pressuring so as to save your own ass, which is a decidedly scummy thing to do.

I also don't understand why you didn't vote people who hadn't posted during the RVS.

Webadict is the CYBRID.

This reminds me of parallel mafia, the one I subbed in.  You're acting the same way.

Please be more specific. What exactly is Webadict doing scummy from meta that he doesn't do while town?

[ToonyMan]

I said earlier that he's being too passive.  All his aggression is faux.

[Mr.Person]

I said earlier that he's being too passive.  All his aggression is faux.

His aggression is always faux at this point in the game.

[Archangel]

I haven't had much access to the internet the last couple of days. Right now, only one person seems wrong to me, so:

Guard Webadict.

I'll reread the thread later to try to get something more.

? I guess I'm being guarded. And you can't really believe I'm odd, or that I'm the only odd one. That's preposterously stupid.

Buddy someone else.

If you're going to use a meta to vote me, at least use a current one. I'd suggest linking Aztec mafia, as that would be the most recent, instead of your lame excuse of a vote.

Now, everyone get back to voting dakarian, the Cybrid.

I mean, he has all the time in the world to acknowledge the thread, but not enough time to reply, nor enough time to say that he'll get to it.

He's got nothing, because he's scum. It's actually very, VERY obvious.

[The Overseer]

If there are any technicians in the game, use your ability on Dakarian now, please. If you don't, you're a rebel.

[Vector]

Just posting to say that I'm here, but exhausted.  I'll be back with more thoughts tomorrow.

[dakarian]

Seriously, you haven't done anything to point out anyone as scum. Mephansteras as scum? Really? No. Not likely, at least. Mephansteras has a way about him when he's scum.

Now you say I didn't point anyone out as scum but turn around and say you don't like the person I pointed out as scum.

..wow

You may not LIKE the idea of Meph being the Cybrid, but it doesn't change the fact that he is and that I've targeted him.  You not LIKING my choice doesn't mean I didn't make a choice.

No no. You're not doing anything useful. You're trying to look like you are, but you're not, and won't ever. Mostly because you're going to go after an easy lynch.

So now I AM going after someone but they are an 'easy lynch'. 

I go after the person who looks the most scummy.  Meph is passive, lurkerhunting, votes out of reaction-little else-and is content to wait it out to the next day, which is when the cybrid threat becomes much more uglier.

So, you're blaming him for voting for a lurker when you were initially doing so?

Apostolic was still deemed as active at the time of my post.  Everyone else I voted on has been very active.

What blatant double standards you set. You yourself weren't even going for Mephansteras until you saw he was weakly attacking. He's not the scum, I'm afraid, but it's a nice shot.

I wasn't going after Meph until after he attacked?

My first post was against him.  My second post poked at others while I waited for his answer.  My third post was in reply to his attack, his response to my question, and his theorycrafting.


But now I get it.  Your REAL problem is that I'm after Meph who you feel isn't scum.  Instead of defending him, you're attacking me.  I was wondering what got in your bonnet.

You know the stance I get at this point.  I DO listen to other people's arguments.  To ME Meph is scum full and true.  If you have any knowledge of him (and it sounds like you do) then speak up instead of assuming "OMG he's trying to kill a townie.. he's SCUM!"

Btw, I extended because there's still more to discuss, and there's too many trying to sleep through this deal.  Besides, without that extension we would've ended in a no lynch.

Meanwhile:

yes, I'd very much be content with an inspection.

[Rysith]

Unvote Vector, vote Dakarian.

You're backpedaling, you're defending, you're explaining. I've watched enough beginners mafia to know that you know that that's not what you do when you're accused of being scum as town. It means you're nervous, and you want to avoid dying rather than helping the group win.

I agree that Meph is being passive, but you're being defensive, and that's a much larger scumtell for you in my mind.

[webadict]

Seriously, you haven't done anything to point out anyone as scum. Mephansteras as scum? Really? No. Not likely, at least. Mephansteras has a way about him when he's scum.

Now you say I didn't point anyone out as scum but turn around and say you don't like the person I pointed out as scum.

Because you HAD to point at someone. Therefore, you're going to point at someone who might appear passive, and then try to throw on evidence later. Mephansteras is always a good target for that, because he's always busy.

You may not LIKE the idea of Meph being the Cybrid, but it doesn't change the fact that he is and that I've targeted him.  You not LIKING my choice doesn't mean I didn't make a choice.

What is your main argument for him being Cybrid? Passiveness? Weak attack? Your mother?

No no. You're not doing anything useful. You're trying to look like you are, but you're not, and won't ever. Mostly because you're going to go after an easy lynch.

So now I AM going after someone but they are an 'easy lynch'. 

You're not really going after them. You can't go after someone if you're the real someone they're going after. You can only try to make everyone believe it's him and not you.

I go after the person who looks the most scummy.  Meph is passive, lurkerhunting, votes out of reaction-little else-and is content to wait it out to the next day, which is when the cybrid threat becomes much more uglier.

I'm glad you jumped off of Meph to randomvote Apostolic Nihilist. That shows how dedicated you were to voting him. I mean, give him some room to breath? That'll alleviate some of the suspicion he has on you. Why the heck not?

So, you're blaming him for voting for a lurker when you were initially doing so?

Apostolic was still deemed as active at the time of my post.  Everyone else I voted on has been very active.

The first part of this answer was acceptable, even if Apostolic wasn't really posting. The second part completely destroyed the entire thing as a legitimate answer. It means you're backpedaling.

What blatant double standards you set. You yourself weren't even going for Mephansteras until you saw he was weakly attacking. He's not the scum, I'm afraid, but it's a nice shot.

I wasn't going after Meph until after he attacked?

My first post was against him.  My second post poked at others while I waited for his answer.  My third post was in reply to his attack, his response to my question, and his theorycrafting.

I assume people that jump off of their target aren't really going after them. You have an FoS for a reason. Taking your vote off of someone makes the entire pressure thing worthless. You know that.

Watch, I'll poke others right now: Archangel! Why have you only posted to vote for me with little evidence? Was it a bandwagon vote?

Isn't that what you were trying to convey?

But now I get it.  Your REAL problem is that I'm after Meph who you feel isn't scum.  Instead of defending him, you're attacking me.  I was wondering what got in your bonnet.

You'd have to actually be attacking him in order for that to be true. I also feel like Meph isn't scum (At least not the Cybrid kind), so I will use how you attack him as evidence against you.

You know the stance I get at this point.  I DO listen to other people's arguments.  To ME Meph is scum full and true.  If you have any knowledge of him (and it sounds like you do) then speak up instead of assuming "OMG he's trying to kill a townie.. he's SCUM!"

So, you're saying that he's scum unless I have proof otherwise. Which means you're rolefishing and going to go after Mephansteras regardless of what evidence there is, because it's just too tough to switch now.

Btw, I extended because there's still more to discuss, and there's too many trying to sleep through
this deal.  Besides, without that extension we would've ended in a no lynch.

This is true, and it's quite obvious.

Meanwhile:

yes, I'd very much be content with an inspection.

Well, I'd do that, but it seems I cannot.

[Mephansteras]

Finally, a quiet morning at work.

Ok, scans on people:

Vector
 -- Lots of theory talk early on, little activity later. Vote is still on Apostolic Nihilist since before he showed up and posted.

You seem to be active lurking, Vector. A few scattered posts saying you're tired but you haven't done *anything* since the very start of the day, which is unusual for you. Letting the rest of us fight it out while you watch? Vector is a good candidate for the Cybrid.

Leafsnail
 -- Votes Mr.Person for being aggressive without saying much
Eh...gone most of the start of the game. But you need to get in here and participate now that you're back!

Mr. Person
 -- Agressive as always

Leafsnail has a point, though. You haven't said all that much so far other then a few questions at me. What about everyone else?

Rysith
 -- Lots of theory talk as well
 -- Switches to Dakarian for being defensive

So Vector, Rysith, and I all spend a while talking theory and I'm the only one who gets called out on it? Sheesh. Anyway, minor suspicion on Rysith for saying a lot early on without really getting too involved in the voting. If dakarian isn't the cybrid...Rysith is doing a great job of following the strategy I predicted for a cybrid.

Apostolistic Nihilist
 -- Few posts. Votes Magma for lurking

Minor suspicion for being so inactive in the game so far. Apostolistic Nihilist could easily be a lurking Cybrid.

Dakarian
 -- Attcking me for being 'passive', but ignores all the other people being passive.

Seriously. Vector and Rysith do almost the same thing as me, but you single me out to attack. Does their TheoryTalk somehow not strike you as scummy when mine does? Does Vector's claims of being tired somehow make her immune while my being busy at work isn't enough of an excuse?

You're tunneling on me, Dak, and that's not a good thing.

ToonyMan
 -- needs reasons for RV?
 -- votes vector for...some reason?
 -- votes Webadict for meta reasons

Eh...it's ToonyMan. Good target for a technician to check since his preferred playstyle of being inscrutable makes it impossible to tell when he's town.

Archangel
 -- Shows up, uses an ability, and votes webadict with no explanation

Seriously suspicious actions there, but if that ability of his is real then he can't be the Cybrid. So...I'll keep an eye on him but I'll assume he's not the cybrid for today.

Webadict
 -- Attacking dakarian as cybrid. Reasons are somewhat inconsistent, but pretty par for the course when Webadict is trying to take someone down. Dakarian has also been a bit inconsistent so his attacks are a bit warranted.

I don't have any particular reason to think webadict is the cybrid right now.

MagmaDeath
 -- Jumps in, votes dakarian for NOT rebel hunting?

You still need to answer that. MagamaDeath is suspicious for doing very little and sort-of bandwagoning on dakarian.

I'm going to have to go with Rysith. You've been background active for most of the game and just pushed dakarian up to lynching level with your vote. While Dakarian has been attacking me relentlessly, I'm not sure he's the cybrid. It just seems to reckless for the cybrid to call that much attention to himself when there are Technicians with day actions who could check on him.

[ToonyMan]

Test Dakarian.

We will see.

[ToonyMan]

That's a soft-claim for technician btw.

Now it's a hard-claim.

[GlyphGryph]

So, while the argued, the Overseer finally made an appearance. He called on the mine's technician to do a thorough examination of one of our men who had been acting suspiciously, if at all possible. The Technician showed, and revealed a device he had spent the day working on for just such a situation. "Just to let you know, though," He warned those gathered around, "It will take me a while to get another one of these working after its used up..."

Dakarian looked worriedly at the device, with its clamps and spikes and batteries, but he did not back away. "Are you sure that thing is safe?" he asked, the worry obvious in his voice.

"Absolutely positively not, but here's hoping" Toonyman replied before slamming it down on Dakarian's head. You should have seen the look on Dakarian's face. Priceless! With a flash and a scream of pain, it was over - the device had finished its work. Toonyman removed the device while Dakarian grimaced in pain, then turned to the others presenting a flashing green light.

"He's clean."

Dakarian has been tested. He is NOT a cybrid!
