I would imagine being a replacement is like jumping onto a train at full steam, and as that would make me nervous, so does this...
Other than that, I am in nincompoop's ' Witch's Coven' mafia spinoff, which may require more concentration than a second game would allow. I would love to join, but it does not seem as if that would work out.
I don't want to see this end like the last BM!
It's more like watching a bunch of people running from an avalanche and deciding, "Sure, that looks fun."
I like your analogy better. Heh, and I suppose you find running from an avalanche an easy decision?
Oh, wait; I forget you are a penguin.

If it scares people into posting, then yes.

If they end up lynched because they didn't post, oh well. Too bad for them. Maybe they should've tried posting.

I don't run. I slide. That avalanche? Psh. Screw the people behind me.

Oh wait, some of them have guns.

Anyhow, I'll catch up fully tomorrow. Alright everyone?

Despite your best efforts to keep the good name of the guard, the lord of the keep has heard wind of slacking off, and he is not pleased, not with the constant threat of lordnincompoop attacking! To tighten security, the lord has seen to it that three soldiers are sacked (That is to say, tied up in sacks and thrown into the local river) and has, in their place, hired a man known for he's strict military discipline! If Webbsy can't keep these slackers in line, who can? To fill other vacant positions, a order has been sent out by the lord asking for able men to answer the call. You wonder who will show...

Extension.

We need time for people to look over stuff (i.e. replacements and, well, me), and we're nowhere near the "end" of D1.

So. . . .do most beginners games have the problems this one does? (people dropping out, low activity, etc.)

Plenty do.

Most of the games on this forum tend to stay pretty active and powerful, though.

The problem is new people don't understand the effort a game takes. Anyhow, I'll start looking over now.

Two things.

One, we're not lynching jc. Or Bdthemag.

Two, Vector.

Fair enough.  Can you explain your reasoning on BDthemag?  I agree with you on JC at this point, but I don't have any read on the other dude.

It'd also be cool to have a question or something with that vote, but I'll admit that I'm actually so happy at this point to have someone engaging me that I don't really care ;_;

Why is it "fair enough" that I want you dead? Are you that scummy?

It's fair enough that you want to vote me and hopefully determine my alignment, given that this is the first vote I've received all game and I haven't been on anyone for the past few days =/  If you'd voted someone else, I think I would have been disappointed.

I wasn't aware you wanted to lynch me, which does seem unreasonable without a case of any sort.

Of course I want to lynch you. Why would I vote you otherwise? Don't assume I'm like you where your vote means nothing if it lands on someone. I got to page 9 and couldn't stand your passiveness. You weren't participating in the actual game.

Another reason to vote me would be, as I mentioned, because I haven't received any other vote all game.

I am having a very, very hard time managing between ICing and playing.  This is a game where two playing ICs are required; I feel that the job of ICing has been delegated to me due to IronyOwl's repeated absences, and I cannot make much traction on scumhunting when I am too busy trying to tell everyone what to do and what not to do.  I am also terrified of attacking some newbie to the point where they run screaming out of the game or allow themselves to be lynched (or to the point where it kills all activity in general), because it's something that just seems to keep on happening.

I still want to know why you have cleared BDthemag, having apparently read only the first 6.5 pages of the game.


IronyOwl, please give me your top two scumpicks.
