What other defence can I make, Toaster? You haven't accused me of anything; you've just asked me how I'd react to being voted. I reacted.

It appears now that I'm going to be lynched regardless of what I do. There are only five players left, and the only one not voting for me is me.

Oh well. I give up. Have fun, 'Doctor' Criptfeind.

[Nolor]

4 people voting for Blarg means at least one scum is voting for him.  Frankly, I smell bus.

My vote stays unless Blarg can convince me otherwise.

Nolor, anything to add here?

I'm liable to agree with you here.

Vote Count:
Criptfeind-Blarg
Blarg-Nolor, Criptfeind, Toaster, Siquo
Not Voting: No one.

So yes, scum is definitely voting for Blarg. Just a few posts ago, though, Siquo was attacking Criptfeind. Now he's voting Blarg; he's also the last one to vote for him. All the signs of busing, really. He didn't want to vote his partner until it was clear the ship was sinking -- a common newbie mistake.

Honestly, I'm having trouble imagining a situation where Blarg/Siquo isn't our scumteam.

I just skimmed through the entire thread. There is extremely little Blarg/Siquo interaction; they mention each others name sometimes, but Siquo voted Blarg for the first time just now, and Blarg has never FOS'd or voted Siquo.

In fact, a few pages ago Siquo said this:

Blarg - Was actually doing ok versus webadict, and answered me well. So he's either good scum, or town. Probably not scum.

...Really? This is probably the most obvious bus I've ever seen in my (short!) mafia career.

I'd request a Day Shortening right now, but it's the weekend so I don't even know if it could go through.

We cut it a bit close, but we have this game won.

[Blargityblarg]

Hm. Hadn't really noticed all that. I think I know what's going on; Siquo's been buddying on me, and I haven't pushed him. Hence, he is in fact buddying. I'm going to guess y'all won't believe me on this, and it doesn't matter that you will when I flip Townie, 'cause it's lylo, but for what it's worth, Siquo is quite probably scum.

I un-give up.

Unvote, vote Siquo.

[Siquo]

All I had was the choice between you, nolor and toaster, since I believe Cript. Webadict named you and me, as pointed out by nolor, and something I noticed until after my assessment of you.

There is no need to bus on you, least of all for me. No matter who I voted for, you'd probably be dead. What you're doing now is make desperate attempts to point fingers in any direction. Or even worse: fake-attacking me, thereby creating WIFOM, implying me as your partner when you turn out to be scum. One scum is voting for you, but if the cause is lost, why shouldn't he let his vote stay on you to cover himself up? Implying that that is exactly what I am doing... Trying to pull me down as if I were your partner, makes me sure I'm right, now.

[Blargityblarg]

Dammit, now I'm confused as to what 'bus' means.

I know I'm going to be lynched. I can't exactly change that without y'all suddenly becoming terrible Mafia players and forgetting all the false scumslips I've ben dropping or having dropped on me.

All I ask is this: Don't get too set on the idea of a Blarg/Siquo scumteam, 'cause you're gonna have to reconsider pretty heavily tonight.

[Toaster]

Bus:  To throw under the bus.  As in, "Oh crap my partner is going to get lynched no matter what- time to vote/attack him so I look more townlike and save myself!"  Basically, if scum A is going to get lynched, scum B goes after him in an effort to appear towny and keep the team going.  More likely in bigger games with more scum, but it could certainly happen here.

And I do have a question for you!  If we'll have to rethink our team tonight, then you're implying there will be a tonight.  If you're town, there is no tonight- game over as soon as you're lynched.  Oops!

[Blargityblarg]

I did not know those- either of them. I had thought that we just kept going, hoping the Doctor was awesome enough to scrape out a Town win, until either he died or all the Scum did.

[Diablous]

Just a little info for Blarg. When the amount of Mafia players and Town players become equal, the game ends with the Mafia winning. If the amounts become equal, the Mafia will have equal power over the voting as the town, so they can make it impossible to lynch a Mafia player. This game set-up will have 2 Mafia, and you have gone down to 5 players, so 3 Town to 2 Mafia. Lynch a townie today and Town loses.

[webadict]

I'd also like to point out this is why it's called lylo (lynch or lose.) If you don't lynch or mislynch, Town loses.

[Org]

You lynch Blarg...Oh no! He was a Marien ROokie!

Nolor and Siquo turn on the other two, drawing their knives as they grin...
Congrats Scum!
Nolor, Siquo-Mafia
Webadict-Cop
Cripfeind-Doctor
Everyone Else is a Rookie.

[Blargityblarg]

Goddamn. Told y'all.

[Siquo]

 

I feel sorry. Scum just isn't my thing. Winning is, though.

[Blargityblarg]

*takes blame*

You probably would've been lynched if I'd been paying attention to you instead of both the town special roles *facepalm*

Props to Nolor, though, I don't think he/Diab got suspected at all (without reading through the thread again, anyway).

[Nolor]

Scumchat.

Fun game!

Playing scum is significantly easier than town. You guys put up a valiant effort.

[spitfire684]

I knew it was Siquo all along!
