Ok, before I post properly wil explain lack of posting. I posted late Friday night. Then Saturday was mtg prerelease and I was out all day. No posting.
Sunday, wife went shopping by herself all day and I had 2 small children to look after. No posting.

Then the thread got locked. Anyone know why?
And then I see thread is open again. Tonight so I am going to post but it is 11pm here so I'll do my best

[geraintm]

So much stuff going on this game that I don't like...

Sharpest knife's last post on site was 1:49pm today.
Day 2 started at 12:03 pm

He came on site, posted in another game and not in this one. When there was already 2 votes on him and he clearly needed to be present and contributing.
That, that is not good behaviour.

I would like to believe scum. Wouldn't have done anything as stupid as what he did. I'd like to think that...

First, I can't say much right now, but I really don't like the lurking theory at this point in time.
Second, care to tell us what you do actually think then?
You voted for Catastrophe based on your random number of posts clause, putting him at L-2. You then call Salamence not scum but an idiot for voting for Catastrophe in Post #50, which put him at L-1. Then the post I started with - absolutely no useful content from you yet.

FOS:SKOT

No useful content from me because somehow this game is moving at a breakneck pace and no one seems to think stopping for a while might be a good idea.
Is the lurking theory any better once they did come into the game?

[geraintm]

Se

I don't know. It feels like the SKOT-train is Just Too Easy.

And it makes me even more itchy about havingfitz's revote. It's almost like he knows there's a chance the SKOT train might derail, and he needs to get back on now to try and straighten the train.

VOTE: havingfitz

Agree with the easy forming of the shot train comment. I am hating the speed of this game and the thought that scum are pushing such an easy lynch so quickly has come into my head

Ok, Im pretty sure SKOT is avoiding this game.

Hes been everwhere else

^ this. Several posts yesterday after this game opened.

Upon further review (and regardless of whether SKOT makes a habit of using random.org to place his RVS), the timeline around realizing he'd hammered after placing the hammer seems to fast. I think the odds of random.org landing on the player who just happens to be at l-1 to be a bit hard to fathom. And to realize it as quickly as SKOT did AFTER the vote vice before it just seems too convenient. And he's not had anything to say about it today.

VOTE: SKOT

Okay, this I don't like. Thread avoidance is scummy.

I also don't like the non-vote from geraintm. Along with this from D1:

The 6th person to post after this post gets my vote

Are you saying this or are you saying (translating) that's what geraintm is saying?

I'm translating what geraintm is saying

because he left a 6 at the end of his post, I just thought I'd give people a heads up

You broke my code!
Yeah VOTE: vote catastrophe

Wonder if I'll get in trouble for that.

I take exception to the lurking part though. Why would you say that? I fear this voyage is going to be very traumatizing if unfounded accusations are going to be thrown around like that. I only won't be able to post for certain on Wednesdays when I draft magic.

it smacks of an aversion to publically committing to a position.

I am vote averse. And I think my position when I wrote that was fine. I clearly felt slot needed to come into the thread to explain themselves and my opinion on the end of yesterday would be based on that. There was no way I was going to join in a wagon on slot before they had posted.

I'd read day 1 and looked at the latest VC. Part of me wanted to be the hammer. I'll do a proper catch-up post later when I'm not phone posting

You want to hammer someone before they have posted for the day?
Does no one like actually seeing days develop?mif you lynch every 2 pages then there is no info to go on later in the game

Um, stared in one game and moved along. I had no reason to go to this game first.

Yes you did. You knew you had hammered someone in the most awkward of situations and would be in the firing line. You had every reason to go to this game. I call bs

VOTECOUNT 1.03 (7) Catastrophe - massive, Xisiqomelir, BlueBloodedToffee, havingfitz, geranium, Salamence20, Sharpest-knife-on-tree(4) Salamence20 - Melmond, DoctorPepper, Catastrophe, shaddowez(1) DoctorPepper - Xayzeck(1) Not Voting - SlandaarYarr, with 13 of ye alive, it takes 7 to lynch.

so scum went to 1 non-vote for kill.

Likely to be scum on cat. BBt, HF, and geranium seem to be in scummy slots.
Massive is probably town.
If sala is town might have one on him. But I think scum are all on CC's vote.
Xay's vote on DP is out of place. but probably not scum.

Why do you have me as scum? My vote on you was based on a random vote that I have done in every game, such that another played in this game correctly predicted what I was going to do.
If your defence is "I always random vote the same way" then you really cannot have me as scum for doing what you did two votes before yours.

[geraintm]

Salamence

: You haven't said anything about WHY you were buddying Slandaar on Day One. I agree that it would be dumb to pal up to him on D1 and then kill him N1, but I don't understand the initial motivation at all.

(3) Not Voting - geraintm, shaddowez, Perpetual Nonsense

I wish these folks wouldn't go five days between posting. I really don't like, for example, that geraint's only post today is to point out that SKOT is posting in other threads but not this one.

Hope I explained my non posting to your satisfaction

[geraintm]

He's (SKOT) getting lynched regardless and we need his flip to really progress so I say hammer

Hate this hate this hate this.
Why are you pushing for a hammer when there are people who haven't been posting? Just so later in the game you can go "lynch geraintm because he hasn't been posting?"

Is this the hammer?

Really????

Grrr. I hate it and I will hate you all day tomorrow for lynching before I had a chance to post in this thread.

[geraintm]

Just realised that the hammer was the exact same minute I posted my first post.
I am so pissed. This game has had, what, like 5 actual open days of play in real life and we have lynched 2 people. I am used to games not even being out of their random stage after 5 days. What is wrong with you all?

[Salamence20]

Because SKOT is going to flip scum and clear me.

RIP Slandaar.

[shaddowez]

Hey all - sorry for not posting much. My time on weekends is somewhat limited as is, and then with the game freeze I know it's been a while.

I really dislike the quickhammer from SKOT on D1, but regardless of the time stamp issue I'm still not positive he's scum. I had a bad vibe from Salamence on D1 that I outlined in my Post #57, but I'm getting less of a scum read now. To be perfectly honest, I'm having a hard time getting reads at all this game. If I'm alive after the flip, I'll go through and do a more detailed runthrough.

I'd also like to say I'll be posting more (and please don't hate me), but

@MOD

I'll be V/LA until 7/20. I will try my damndest to post at least once a RL day, though I can't promise it.

[Sharpest-knife-on-tree]

Because I'm not alerting potential scum to what I think of their interaction with your lynch and how I would expect them to behave in regards to your lynch (This applies regardless of your alignment)

fair enough in terms of stating it, but I hope you are thinking about it.

[Sharpest-knife-on-tree]

Because SKOT is going to flip scum and clear me.

RIP Slandaar.

nope, not going to happen, and your insistence on saying that over and over and over hear does not look good for you.

[Salamence20]

If this is true, I better start scumhunting or else Xis will think I'm a troll

[/area]

As the sun set over the ocean, the crew of the Cawjack surrounded yet another potential mutineer, seeking blood. They surrounded the one who'd pushed Catastrophe off the plank they day before. "You're either scum, or an idiot", yelled someone. "No", SKOT mumbled back. "I'd been mourning the loss of our dear captain with a few bottles of well earned rum. How was I to know that Catastrophe was on the edge of the plank?"
Despite his best efforts, SKOT was gradually forced off the plank, as Catastrophe had been the day before. Once again, a familiar voice echoed around the ship.
"Yarr, ye all be bilge rats. I've never seen a worse crew in my years of captaining!"

The Cawjack awoke to yet more dead to send to the locker. Not one, this time, but two bodies were found upon the deck. Xisiqomelir was lying facedown I'm a pool of blood, a cracked bottle of rum next to him. A short way away, however, there was another body. Havingfitz lay, counterfeit captain's hat on his head, a cutlass buried in his back. The same fate that befell the late Captain Corporal.

WE GOT A GUILTY ON GERAINTM

WE ARE A COP

MY PREDECESSOR MADE A DECISION THAT I HATED, INVESTIGATING AN INNO ON AN INEVITABLE LYNCH - sharpest knife on tree

there was NO WAY to save him/her WITHOUT outting us as a cop which is bad bad bad bad not knowing there is a protective role
