Don't make stuff up and don't twist words. I never said your opinion was crap. I showed that it didn't make sense. I never said anybody else had scummy arguments. I said people who made scummy arguments made scummy arguments. (In other words: I'm not saying defending Webadict is scummy, I'm saying defending him with scummy arguments is scummy).

Webadict isn't scum by my opinion, he just seems to be playing in a way that, while it may look somewhat scummy, seems to be getting a lot of reactions, namely from people. And isn't town supposed to do stuff like that? Get reactions to show who is scum?

If webadict looks somewhat scummy you lynch him immediately. You may not get another chance.

webadict likes cultivating a reputation as a king of mafia. Giving him leeway is dangerous.

Mr.Person draws pink runes around GeneralGuy!
Cheetar draws orange runes around GeneralGuy!
ToonyMan draws CAPS LOCK RUNES around webadict!
Pandarsenic draws FABULOUS runes around webadict!
Jim Groovester draws sickly green runes around GeneralGuy!
Zako draws blue runes around GeneralGuy!
Jokerman-EXE draws fucking goldenrod runes around webadict!
tehstefan draws unreadable beige runes around webadict!

If you didn't colour your assist I probably missed it.

Deadline is about 10pm GMT tomorrow - make sure you get assists and night actions in by then.

Cheeetar: Webadict even said straight out that I was stupid in his first response to me.

Mr.Person: I believe I've entered a vicious spiral downwards. What am I supposed to say? You'll think I'm scum anyway. I did enjoy this game, but people are stubborn. I don't quit when there's still a chance of living. Now, there's none. I wanted to quit when everyone seemed ignorant to Webadict's "I should seem like scum, no I'm not you are" post, I didn't, and a replacement now would seem pointless, no? And even scum wouldn't give up, it's just the way I play. You talk as if I'm no help at all, but look back, while I haven't done much, it's something. Useless towns don't exist.
And besides, it's my first game, how was I to know the outcome? I suppose I'm not a team player, but it's hard to do if you don't know who teammates are.

Think of it this way. Wouldn't the logical thing for a townie in your shoes to do be to try and convince everyone Webadict is scum? So why, exactly, are you not doing that?
I see your point, and I agree with you. But it's just my way of thinking. Well, whichever way this game ends up, I'll try to learn. But it also seems like whenever I don't talk suspicion is shifted to webadict by itself.

ToonyMan draws CAPS LOCK RUNES around webadict!

Ha ha, I didn't know CAPS LOCK was a color.

You're missing tehstefan's assist on webadict.

That's pretty perceptive of you.

I'd actually rather see you survive this; I don't see scum, I just see a new player, and it looks like you've got the makings to be a pretty good one.

Now, while you may be observant, just listing your observations isn't going to convince anybody. Take your observations, and turn them into an attack. The passive approach, the one you're taking right now, will get you lynched. Take the active one, and go attack the people you find suspicious.

Your head's on the chopping block. You've got nothing to lose by being bold right now.

Jimmeh: You're taking my words out of context. The entire Day I've been saying that I wanted two scum in the ring. That's obvious from every angle. My initial vote, however wasn't trying to do that, and I explained that. It was random, and it was to provoke a response. It did provoke a response, too, so why are you being so angry against my methods?

Nag nag nag, why don't you?

Cheeetar: Do you think we're both scum or just me?

It's easy.  Just take your runes, and put them into capitals.

I think you're scum, but I don't know if GeneralGuy is newbie scum or newbie town.

I'm leaning towards town. He doesn't appear to have any scumbuddies to help him out.

Now that IS suspicious. Org, what changed?
I think both duelists may be scum.
There is no point in helping either.

Okay Org, then think of it this way: If we're both scum, who would be harder to get rid of later?

Cheeetar, that's a pretty stupid and completely unjustified claim. Where's your evidence he's Town?

Nag? But of course! Haven't you heard that giving you leeway is dangerous? I'd be out of my mind to do anything except give you a hard time.

I'm being so angry against your methods because they're not working. If you think they are, I will have to vehemently disagree with you. What positive results have you gotten from doing whatever the hell you were trying to do? None, as far as I can see. You've gotten yourself in the ring, and that's a bad place to start defending the methods that got you there.

Self-votes are always a bad idea, unless the vote confers some sort of advantage. The natural question is, what advantage are you trying to confer by voting yourself? This was a tactic you used successfully in Wizard Duel I. In that game, you were trying to curry favor with the town by volunteering to go into the ring. This was familiar behavior for a scum webadict, so I voted.  The furthest thought from my mind was that you were trying to get a response, and for the most part, I still think this is the case.

What response were you expecting to get? If that's the explanation you're going to use, I want to know what you thought you would get out of it.

Now that IS suspicious. Org, what changed?
I think both duelists may be scum.

Yes there is, scumface.

I don't believe you when you say you think both of them are scum, but I'm going to pretend like I do.

There's a clear discrepancy in webadict's and GeneralGuy's skill level. You should be asking yourself, what would be better for the town? To get rid of webadict, or to get rid of GeneralGuy?

You should be assisting the way you want the match to turn out, according to the way you answered that question.

But I bet you're in a bit of a dilemma right now, which is why you're not taking sides. A townie wouldn't have a dilemma here, unless he thought both combatants were town of about equal skill level. But that's not what you said, so you're probably scum.

So, the only scummy thing you can really say about me is that I randomvoted myself, which is a tactic I used once in a game with a similar voting system?

Or, is there more? Because once I'm lynched, and I come up TOWN (not mafia, SK, cult, jester, survivor, or lyncher), you can smash your head into your desk several times, okay? Okay.
