Normally I enjoy Meph's Para game. I'm not about to be threatened by some asshat on the internet because he thinks he's special and doesn't like the way I play a forum game.

It's a game, and Web has decided to make it meta and personal. I'd like Meph's take on that, since he is hosting this game.

Web makes everything Meta and personal with everyone. Just don't let it get to you. I've lost count of the number of times web has insulted me, it doesn't mean anything.

I can't imagine all three of them being scum. Hmm. Unless Forsaken1111 is an Adv Dopp they just need to have live through the day.

It's not about whether the other two are scum. I'm pretty sure it's just Jim being scum. I was just saying you won the argument.

webadict, since you've displayed the maturity of a child with your death threats, I will now refer to you appropriately.

Jim, goading Webadict  isn't exactly a sign of maturity either. In fact, you've been pretty inflamatory and petty yourself.

Moreover, what's the goal in asking him loaded questions, where he can't answer without either insulting himself, or admiting to being scum? Do you hope to force him to ignore the question, and then use that against him?

And thus, the scumhunt charade goes.

I suppose you have a point.

Hmph.

Eh, I don't really expect anything productive to come out of the loaded question (because webadict is horribly unproductive when faced with people who dare deign to challenge his supreme lordly intelligence), but it does serve to make a point: his accusation arises from either petty or suspicious motives. I don't think there is an alternative. And here I stand surprised.

But you're right that I'm being petty about it, but I don't really care all that much. It's so hard to resist when it's so easy to turn webadict from mildly abrasive into grating jackass at the drop of a hat. With such control over a person, wouldn't you do the same?

Except it wasn't a random vote. I had exactly 1 random vote, placed onto Ottofar after I read a sentence of his, mostly in hopes that it would successfully end RVS. It did. I kept my vote where it was until I read forsaken1111. I voted him promptly, so that I may have my vote on him, and he would display more scumminess while I collected data thereon. He didn't respond at all to it.

No, wait, I mentioned that I was in the process of conversing about said vote, when he replied questioningly about that statement. He was thus wagoned upon and refused to not only defend himself, but also to attack or anything. He continued his passive resistance to the flow of the game and dammed the entire thread up.

You seem to think that I care whether he's concerned about my vote or not. I could care less. I planned on voting him for the rest of the Day once I voted him in the first place. His reaction is something that I'd want, yes, but I'd only use it to further my goal of lynching him.

Where, oh where, did you get the idea that I randomvote willy nilly? I ended the RVS a long time ago, and if you haven't found someone scummy yet, you're doing it wrong.

But, you're right, aren't you? We should merely act cool to being voted after random voting has stopped. Everyone should vote Jim Groovester, because it'll be random, and he'll be cool about it. Right? Isn't that right, Jimmy? *nudge nudge* Now dance, pretty boy.

If it wasn't a random vote then it was a pressure vote; whatever you call it, it's designed to get a reaction, and I've seen you do it many times before. It's a matter of semantics, which you spend an inordinate amount of time arguing to avoid answering questions.

You seem to suggest that no matter forsaken1111's reaction you were planning on using it to lynch him. If you don't care whether the reaction makes forsaken1111 look like town or scum, then that suggests you're not interested in scumhunting at all and you'd rather pursue lynches.

I find it incredibly difficult to believe that you're town if you don't care how people react to your votes.

But, you're right, aren't you? We should merely act cool to being voted after random voting has stopped.

If the vote comes from you, absolutely. It doesn't matter whether you're town or scum, giving you any reaction outside of the one you arbitrarily deem correct is almost always counterproductive.

Unvote, Solifuge

Hmm, okay. You're going to have to explain that one.

1. I don't want a tie

2. Solifuge and Frog have both been acting scummy

3. I don't care which of them die, because they're both scummy

4. I think its slightly more likely that frog is simply a newbie acting scummy by mistake

5. Overreaction:
Just to be clear, Mr. Person, I believe I'm done trying to explain anything to you, so don't expect me to address anything unless you've suddenly decided to actually read what people say, or to present anything new to the table. You've kicked reason to the curb ...and then you curb-stomped it.

And now its dead. Good job.

6. Because

Voting for me is the only vote he could place that has a large enough basis to exceed the vote on him... thus, it's the only way to save himself.

Yup, self-preservationism, passivity in the face of lynch, and lack of substantial contribution. Forsaken1111 it is.

No, I'm interested in lynching scum. It was a matter of voting who I deemed the most likely to be scum at the moment. His reaction wasn't necessary. His lack of reaction, however, only lends credit to him being scum.

Unvote, Solifuge
Nah, we're not lynching Solifuge today. But, nice try stacking Solifuge one vote higher than you. It just makes you look scummier that you're saving yourself while not caring about who you lynch nor having any plan to participate in the future.

Unvote, Solifuge

Hmm, okay. You're going to have to explain that one.
Last ditch effort to save him is a fail.

1. I don't want a tie

2. Solifuge and Frog have both been acting scummy

4. I think its slightly more likely that frog is simply a newbie acting scummy by mistake

6. Because
I lol'd. Here I thought I was clearly being more scummy than those two for the simple fact of what I was doing to you, but you still won't vote me and instead switch! You can easily extend the Day, yet go for the simpler option: Lynch Solifuge. Seriously? You couldn't be bothered to type out 6 letters? You can have a lot more time to build your argument on Solifuge using time, but lynching him with that argument? You might as well just take a shovel and bury yourself: You're already doing all the work.

If I've made anything clear by now it should be that I'm not out to save myself. I'm trying to avoid a 3-way tie.

If you guys really want me dead that's fine. You'll lose a townie and the game will progress as normal.

Unlike webby there I don't take this game personally, or go batshit nuts when people don't play the way I want.

I don't want you dead, in specific: my goal is to make the Scum dead. You, meanwhile, don't seem to care who dies, so long as it's someone other than you.

Oh, sure, let's just ignore scummier people so that we can give our two cents on the same forsaken1111-webadict pissing match that happens every single Paranormal game.

As are people voting for you. But, at least if you're going to die, bring up something that will help Town if you're Town, or hurt Town if you're scum.

Well, since you asked, I would much prefer an Ethereal.Frog lynch. After him, Toaster. Those are my two top suspicions.
