I am saying do not remove any suspicion on me. Just look at all the other players.

In post 43, notscience wrote:Is it necessarily scummy or is it showing naivete, DP?


This is soft defending of LQ. Additionally, notscience has been way less involved than I would expect, and almost all of the posts are really hedge-y. There's an awful lot of flowery talk but little in the way of actual confirmed thoughts. It actually seems
too
poorly played to be scum!notscience ... but still it jumped out at me early on and stuck through the entire read.

In post 72, JumpsToConclusions wrote:I hope you are taking notes mafia, pretty much telling you how to play.

Yes plausible, but I am trying to relate more so to this game and Licketys actions. I do not think a wagon built for two was going to scare any PR into revealing. I 'think' I see your point, in that maybe he was claiming a bandwagon to get others to join; still reading him leaning town.


This post just reads as really strange. I still don't know what to make of it. He's telling scum to take notes and he's showing scum how to play? Then he talks about LQ, who was scum.

In post 302, Aneninen wrote:You were scum, LQ, weren't you?

In case I'm wrong, post some details about your reads, please.


I don't believe for a nanosecond that Aneninen actually thought it was a hammer, and that's nearly enough by itself to warrant a vote. The only thing stopping me is the possibility that Anen was trying to get LQ to think he was hammered and get him to say something useful.

Interested to hear from Ilhom and Zen on the Lickety bandwagon as well.


To be completely honest, I'm tempted to hammer so that I can procrastinate more and read the thread during the night phase. I got to page three, then I started skimming over a bit. My eyes, they surely are starting to glaze. Is that bad? Yeah, it is. I just need to kick myself into gear and actually read the thread... sometime soon. :P


It always makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck when I see someone explicitly point out that they are being completely honest in a mafia game. The unconscious need to assert truth implies that there is mistruth elsewhere. Except this slot is almost completely vacant of anything that might be mistruth.

In post 362, Aneninen wrote:No, everything is possible but B.

In post 363, Bulbazoor wrote:Why not B?

In post 364, Aneninen wrote:Single Cop. Where is the Nightkill?


Aneninen should know better than anyone that the lack of a kill does
not
confirm us into anything, and he even said so earlier in an "IC Spoiler". Now here he is trying to argue that we should assume something he knows isn't safe to assume.

In post 438, Aneninen wrote:Also, I can see no scenario in which DoctorPepper, Notscience or Cthulhu is scum. They were in the middle of the LQ-wagon. They could have done anything instead of bussing their buddy.

@Mod: Juckter needs to be prodded.


Radmann, Juckter, let's play a little game.
Answer these questions:
(1) If you were scum, whom would you have tried to kill last Night?
(2) Why do you think the kill failed?

Anyone can join this game too. If needed, I'll post my answers too.


Tripe. LQ was a ridiculous distraction and the only viable lynch yesterday. I just read through it all. Getting off that wagon would have drawn attention. Obviously only one of them could possibly be scum, but dismissing them all has no merit. Bad post.

If I were scum, I would have killed a lurksack slot so there would be little to no associatives with it.
I have no idea why the kill failed; I lack the necessary information to make an informed guess.

Really? Was I even *in the game* at that point?


It's not relevant whether you were here or not. The fact that day one had gigantic chasms of stall, and you were all over me after a couple hours is really bullshit.


P-Edit: Work on your method. You're barking up the wrong tree.

You're so funny.

How about this. I'll gladly get lynched today, as long as you agree to go tomorrow. Deal?

Oooooo very tempting, but if I am wrong on you then that would put us in a one mislynch left situation after my death (assuming no saves).

Let's have some reads, Drixx. Who's town? As far as I can see, you're casting shade on half the damn player list.

I would be very surprised if you flipped scum, CD. You've been far too aggressive since replacing into a slot that was widely town read. You could have coasted quite easily on it.

I'm pretty sure scum is in the following three:

notscience
aneninen
JTC


I don't view any of the remaining 3 players as far enough away from null to decide. If I've managed to buy my life for a time, you'll see me push people.

If you had bothered to do more than read a game where I was experimenting with my game and mangled it badly, you would have seen that I do quite a good job of getting reactions from people so I can read them.

I would not vote any of those three today for love or money. Maybe tomorrow. I don't see any of the three being a viable lynch for today.

Seriously, that's not the only game I've read. Hint: Kitty Galore is my girlfriend.

So you believe the other mafia voted on their partner....do you not have any strong feelings about people outside of the group that voted; very town or very null or otherwise?

I find Anen extremely hard to believe as a potential scum suspect. If you think Anen is mafia, then you believe a mafia left a L-1 vote to start a wagon on their partner and kill them.

Moderator CommentsPlease do not talk about or mention any ongoing games, explicitly or otherwise. There are exceptions to this rule that are detailed in this thread, but a good rule of thumb is to think of each game in its own vacuum, outside of which the game doesn't exist (until it ends).

My interwebs went out just after my last post last night. I was looking in my played games history to see why someone who is friends with Kitty Galore would have reason to think I was awful. Couldn't think of it. If you want to stalk me though, CD, please go read Mini Normal 1658, particularly day four.

It's kind of irritating that I sat here and put a pile of effort in for literally nothing to happen after my internet died and I finally gave up on it coming back and went to sleep.

Let it go, Drixx - this continued self-defense is distracting you from the task at hand: finding scum.
