Other than seeing this die because of inactivity, and as it seems it is LYLO (with no visible replacement yet), I'm breaking it.
I'm the Cop.
A replacement for the original cop in other words. On the first day towards half of the second, ansontan2000 took hold of this until it was passed to me.
What I found was:
N1: Investigated Nilum, found out that he was of Town alignment. I can only guess because ansontan2000 was placed on his to-be-lynched list and wanted to find out if his scumhunting was not just a ruse.
N2: Dariush goes Town too. Being the only surviving IC, I figured that an experienced player might be able to turn the tables if he were mafia so I investigated him.
N3: I got roleblocked. I could not investigate Pnx.
On the second day, Mormota and FanofGaming both voted for me, though Mormota had two votes on him. Other than voting him back (which contradicted the arguments earlier) I did nothing, hoping to investigate him later on. I changed my mind and turned my attention to Dariush, explanation above.
Extend. Not much has been done today and I wouldn't feel comfortable about a lynch like this.
Third day and No lynch was had, my suspicion on Mormota was lowered when FanofGaming got NK'ed, then Pnx posted.
For Pnx, he was a replacement for drakon136 who replaced Remalle. I found some posts that may indicate his scumminess. On Halmie or his replacement, I have no leads.
...
Actually, I couldn't find much about them before the second day.
Day 1
Remalle
We've played before, how will you apply the techniques we learnt last time to this game?
Um, to play better, I guess? I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "techniques". Do you mean stuff like scumhunting, because yeah, I'm fairly sure I'll be scumhunting in this game.
Anson - if you were a roleblocker and somehow knew who the cop and doc were, who would you block and who would you kill? Would that answer change based on how many people were left in the game, or whether they knew about each other, or in any other circumstances?
Day 2
I voted Andrew to ensure a lynch. I wasn't sure of the exact votecounts at the time, and the deadline was approaching.
Really? You only voted Andrew to make sure that there was a lynch? Were you even suspicious of him at all, or do you not care who gets lynched, as long as its not you?
Did you miss pretty much all of my posts D1 where I listed Andrew as the scummiest, by far? [1] I was on Halmie until the end because lurkers will be the death of this game, like so many others.
My guess on why ansontan2000 was asking general questions was that he wanted to be sure if Andrew125 was a townie, then he would also have other leads.
Jim: I want to know everyone's favorite roles to play, as it may have a chance to actually be the role they have, as was proven with Shark last BM.
How does this help you find scum?
I don't like seeing empty contributions. Asking pointless questions makes me think you're trying to look active instead of actually being interested in finding scum.
Who are your suspects and why aren't you making cases against them?
Jim: Thanks for the help. My suspicions are mainly on Andrew. The reason why I haven't made a case yet? Because of Mormota prodding. I wanted to make sure of the validity of his answers and making sure HES not scum, as that will just backfire on me.
Andrew: Not just lying, misrepping and buddying. All you have done so far is try and force the lynch onto somebody else. As for not asking more questions, i would like you to look back on your posts and give me a instance of you asking a question.
Mormota: At this point I'm thinking that either you or Andrew are scum. You are scum hunting quite well, and Andrew is seeming to be an active lurker.
You are completely at odds with yourself if you say you suspect Mormota and you say he's scumhunting quite well, because scumhunting is not a suspicious action.
And Andrew425's been posting frequently enough and well enough that he can't really be called an active lurker.
Jim: Thanks for the help. My suspicions are mainly on Andrew. The reason why I haven't made a case yet? Because of Mormota prodding. I wanted to make sure of the validity of his answers and making sure HES not scum, as that will just backfire on me.
But, you see, you could be asking them both questions if that's what you were worried about.
Don't let a silly thing like imagined obstacles get in the way of you finding out who is and isn't scum.
Andrew: It's time to hang, scum. Why is it you have been showing us all lies from the very start?
This question is loaded bullshit. You are not going to get anything out of it. You might look 'tough' but looking tough is not an acceptable contribution.
Make your case on your suspects, and try voting them, else you are lying, cowardly scum.
You still haven't answered this:
Jim: I want to know everyone's favorite roles to play, as it may have a chance to actually be the role they have, as was proven with Shark last BM.
How does this help you find scum?
Jim: The roles people are playing may influence their decisions. By asking them what roles they would like to play, it may be what they are playing in the first place. By active lurker I mean he's not a lurker, but he is posting things without any substance. He is only answering questions driven to him by Mormota. If you'll have noticed, my vote was on him since the very beginning.
Andrew: Why is it you're only answering questions from Mormota? Why is it, that you're not actually asking questions to people in return? You're not scumhunting at all; you're just answering questions.
Jim: I want to know everyone's favorite roles to play, as it may have a chance to actually be the role they have, as was proven with Shark last BM.
I hope you realise rolefishing is a scum tactic, and it only ever serves purpose for scum, right? You don't even try to be subtle about it, do you? Think nobody will call you out on it? You're wrong. So tell me, why do you care what people have what roles, scum?
Mormota: Answer to first question: Yes I have found people suspicious. Specifically, Andrew based on his actions and questions beforehand. The reason i'm still asking around? If I am wrong and he justifies himself, I can still take an instant lead on someone based on their answers to my questions now.
Second question: Why wouldn't I? If I could find out who the Roleblocker or Godfather are, it would help us townies find scum.
And a question to you: What are your suspicions on Andrew?
On scumhunting, it is stated that it is not a suspicious action but I think it is IF the leads go wrong as scum survive if they think like townies, I guess their only advantage is that they do know who their partner is and can fake attacks on each other as well as having the roleblock/godfather powerrole.
There is a roleblocker.
Pnx: Why did you state
So FoG was killed off in the night. Was this to silence him? To draw attention away from someone he suspected? Or did someone suspect we might suspect that and use that to their advantage?
Damn, I hate when I have to figure out if the enemy is using double reverse psychology or just reverse psychology. I suppose it could also just have been at random.
That is WIFOM, and condensed one at that. Don't do it.
You're right, it's much more probable they just thought he was annoying anyway.
A night kill is a night kill.
Looking at who was nightkilled never gives anybody any productive reads.
The person is dead.
On Day 3, the rate of scumhunting fell to nearly 0%. The mafia may have killed all those who were previously on the hunt for any of them, either by lurking or hoping the town will not post anything. But not me. I'm still alive.
Mod/IC: Is the extension still going on? I guess the inactivity could partly be caused by the holidays.
