Tyberix: OK then.
[Be sure to double check your facts.]
[Nightkills in general: I'd like to stress again that there is little reason to use them to pick out scum. Scum can easily pick the "unlikely" target to throw you off, or they could take the obvious choice. It's all WIFOM, and you should largely disregard it. Therefore, the logical answer to any "What would you do different if player X is nightkilled?" question is "Nothing different- continue to scumhunt."]
LNCP:
Drawing scum attention, then getting yourself assassinated, is bad. However, it shouldn't stop good play.
You can't attack and scumhunt without drawing attention.
I disagree with your premise but not your conclusion. Townies do not fear death, because getting the attention of scum means you are worrying them, and you worry scum by being a good scumhunter and figuring them out.
[Corollary to this: Remember what I said above- just because someone got NKed doesn't mean they were right. It should just tell you that they were being honest with their intentions, not that their targets were correct.]
As for your question to me: The situation is decent. We have a fair amount of info and most people are putting in decent participation. I think the start bodes well for the town.
Scumpicks: #1 is Super, obviously. His defensiveness with regards to Saint's RV and noncommittal posts on the subject, plus his unwillingness to vote Saint over his issues with him, bug me. He then didn't back up his suspicions well. I think I've made my case on him clear enough.
SaintDraze is spazzy and jumps all over the place, but something in my gut is telling me his intentions aren't malign. He's far from having me convinced, but I'm not sold on his case.
Japa is too casual with his vote, and I've got a question for him.
Japa: You've voted Super. If he flipped town, what would that do to your suspicion of SaintDraze?
[I'm trying to be transparent with my suspicions here. I'm not as open about Japa because I'm questioning him. Letting him know the intent behind my question too much will give him clues how to answer it if he's scum. If he's town, he can just answer it honestly and be fine.]
Web, can we get a vote count?
