Goodness gracious.
Darvi: -The situation as a whole is a nulltell. Certain parts of it suggest I am scum, certain parts suggest I am town.
-Well, yes. In this case, we did learn something interesting from trying to lynch ECoF. However, we also learnt a lot of things without killing him D1, and if we had not killed anyone else, we would probably still have learnt most of those things.
-Actually at this point I just think Dariush is being a tunnelling idiot rather than scum. I do have other suspicions, most notably ECoF.
But I'm fairly sure ECoF is an SK.
And what of it if he is? His 'lynch' on D1 suggests that he isn't scum, yes. But a hostile third party still needs to be eliminated. Certainly if there are no better targets.
And ECF is a better target than me. None of the points against me are really that strong- minor things, at best.
-Proposed No Lynch D1. (Still not sure how this is scummy)
-Was defended by webadict. (Mass of wriggling WIFOM, best to ignore)
-Clarified something before being asked about it. (Not to self-meta too much, but RL Mafia 3. Had a huge argument about the scumminess of pre-emptive defence. Was lynched for it, was town.)
Whereas ECF has pretty much been deliberately and maliciously ignoring people. That alone should make him a better target than me.
You I've done pretty much nothing this entire game but sit there and toss a vote on the latest bandwagon.
Ayup.
Anyways my vote is for NUKE because of his no lynch policy and the fact that webadict was scum.
Care to expand on this?
For one thing, the webadict situation... that is a massive mass of WIFOM. You do recognise this, right?
And why is my no-lynch policy scummy? You said yesterday that it was scummy because it is 'Town's only way to get rid of Mafia'. Well, that obviously turned out to be false. You also said that it was important to 'Look back and see what connections were being formed D1'. Well, no one died D1. Does that mean all the 'connections' are invalid? Does the entire day become worthless for scumhunting because the lynch target lived?
Actually, this is relevant to everyone who thinks my No-Lynch was a bad idea: Understand that what happened yesterday was pretty much exactly what I wanted to happen: people chose a lynch target, but he didn't die. We still got all the information we would get from the day and the night, but we didn't hastily kill someone, potentially depriving us of their input. Okay, the no-lynch was enforced mechanically, but imagine if it hadn't been. Imagine if we just hadn't lynched ECF.
Was that so bad? (Also, Andrew- tying the vote at the brink of the day's end- do you really think ECF is so townish that you would rather lynch no one than him?)
McArathos: Hmm. I see. Well, my experience is that people tend to jump on these little details and tack them on to what they feel is an already flawless case, when the tunnelling threshold lies long in the past.
Also, whilst Town should be more concerned with scumhunting than their own image, they still need to think about their image. Letting others waste a lynch on you is not good town behaviour, and misleading people into thinking you are scum is usually a bad idea.
NUKE: Do you have any suspects at the moment besides Crown? Has your opinion about Dariush changed after his debate with Orangebottle? Your latest posts have been mostly responding to arguments against you and attacks on Crown, which is understandable considering the votes on you, but I'd like to get an idea of what you're thinking at the moment.
Dariush is still probably scum. He is not averse to arguing loudly as scum. Argue enough, and people will ignore you: the perfect defence. However, I am receiving less of a scum vibe from him, and ECF is just... not even trying. So he is not top of the list anymore.
The best offence is a good defence, I always say. What I am thinking at the moment: Well, aside from "don't lynch me bro" and "RARGH ECF STOP LURKIN", I'm thinking:
ECF is probably third party, so the distribution of votes is not particularly useful for determining who is scum. They may even be conspiring to keep it neck to neck just to fuck with us.
I was thinking OB might've been scummates with Dariush. His bowing out, which angers me
greatly, leaves me disinclined to believe this.
Plenty of people have only just joined us for the day, so its a bit hard to read them.
We need 3 replacements. WHAT THE FLYING FUCK RAAAAARGH.
But seriously at the moment I am content to just defend myself, attack Crown, and let the rest stew. There's some bandwagoning and curious reasoning going on all over the place, which will be useful in subsequent days as material for attacks, but nothing significant enough to be worth attacking someone over right now.
Toaster: If you can't get replacements, consider modkilling. This many people needing replacements is just going to break the game otherwise.
Crown: It's amazing how you keep finding time to make posts and yet never get around to answering mine.
Yeah, whatever. What am I supposed to be answering?
Yeah, whatever [/snide imitation of Crown's voice]
YOU HAVE SIX VOTES ON YOU. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING TO TAKE LIGHTLY.
I will be exceedingly kind, and link to two of my posts directed to you:
This one and
this oneThere's a bunch more stuff from others and myself, which you can look up yourself.
But really, the main problem at this point is your blatant and malicious lurking. And this "yeah whatever" attitude pretty much seals your fate in my books.
WOT SUMMARY: ECF is basically entirely unapologetic about lurking. Just... let that sink in for a moment. Then lynch him.
