Mini 945: Mafia in Bawlmer - GAME OVER

Vote; Dizzle

All caps is a bad start to a game.

[DiamondCrash]

It sucks being in a different time zone.

Vote: dramonic

We do not feel that millers should be left alive to later cause distraction.

This comes off to me as policy-lynching dramonic for claiming miller. Do you

REALLY

want to give scum an advantage by going after such an easy target so early?

Unvote: dramonic

Is it really a scum advantage at this stage? Surely we're just RVSing for the moment, with a scattering of light justification?

So because it's in a bastard-mod game it should be in a normal game?

Your logic sucks. Try harder.

He didn't say that. He was merely stating he had one. Your logic sucks. Try harder.

4 am way too late to try to be doing the thinking things.

I'd call that early. What the funk are you doing up at four in the morning?

Maybe a little overreactive/early for this, but this could possibly be a further link between a possible SC/dramonic scumduo.

1. Choice of wording, mah boi. Maybe, could, possibly? You're covering your arse in case someone decides to say that it is too early and that you are overreacting. Which you are. So let's take out that bit...

This is a further link between a possible SC/dramonic scumduo.

2. So, attacking someone means a scum buddy? In fact, I'd hardly call that attacking, merely making a point, from the looks of it. Plus, further link implies you think that this post is the first sign;

Well, the cop knows who not to investigate xD That's not a free pass, however—in fact, it's an easy scum claim, so be extra careful, dramonic.

based on the last 5 words. However, I have a different theory. Normal games are normal. SC is making the assumption that there is a cop, even though you can't be sure. However, by using the word "the" in his post implies there is one. So, therefore, I propose this. Due to the fact that by the wording of his post, he knows there's a cop...

SC is the cop.

Anyone have any problems with that theory?

[DiamondCrash]

Why the hell would you be wanting to expose a powerrole?

It is but a theory.

[DiamondCrash]

Promoting discussion, actually.

[DiamondCrash]

Hey. Sorry about the whole "SC is a cop" thing. I realise now that it wouldn't really have stimulated discussion, even though it did, in some respects. I also know now that exposing power roles at this stage is a bad idea.

People have asked be to defend why I even brought that up. Truth is, there's very little to defend against. I made a mistake.

[DiamondCrash]

Just to clear things up, I've played one game, and halfway or so through a second; both on the Road to Rome.

I'd also like to hear his response to Chevre's defense of indefinite words.

I'm accepting Chevre's explanation. I heard somewhere that overuse of words like "could", "possibly", "perhaps" and the like can be a scumtell; indeciciveness as to appear protown.

Really? I'd think that overuse of words is a tell of a limited vocabulary, and/or

actual indecisiveness

.

Could be. But I said that they "

can

be a scumtell". Reading between the lines says "they might not".

Oph backtracked to saying that he'd vote dram until a better option arose and Oph generally overreacted to a simple, straightforward question. An overreaction like that so early in the game seems scummy to me. Not sure what to make of his disappearance though.

It spurred discussion, which was the intent. Intelligent discourse is the best way forward for optimum results.

So, you're telling us that you pretended to overreact as to promote discussion? Or did you actually overreact, and trying to think of an excuse?

Is it really a scum advantage at this stage? Surely we're just RVSing for the moment, with a scattering of light justification?

You're using the RVS (which should not exist) as a crutch (which is bad) to support an attack on someone for no good reason (which is worse).

That's a matter of your own opinion. I agree, it

shouldn't

exist. But it does. And it also seems that you're mistaking a RVS for what it really is; Not attacking, but rather more an attempt to draw information from nothing. Is that not correct? Thus, I'm using RVS as an excuse to... random vote.

SC - what is there to be careful about? The cat is already out of the bag and nothing can change that. Be careful about being investigated anyway? Be careful about all the heat that is going to come?

Who said the cat was definitively out of the bag?

Who said there was a cat to let out of the bag in the first place?

Do you think that the DiamondCrash thing is failtown or scum?

I don't care either way. If he is failtown he's failtown to the point at which he's worse to keep alive than scum.

Paraphrase; "I don't care, I'm gonna kill him anyway." How accurate is this statement, Ophanim? Seems awfully one-track minded, wouldn't you say?

Going with the flow

Following the rest of the flock, you mean?

[DiamondCrash]

Ah, that reminds me, I still have that random vote on.

Unvote.

[DiamondCrash]

I don't care what anyone has to say, I am going to be voting for DiamondCrush at the end of this irregardless of whether or not it's a hammer.

If DC is really at L-1 are you seriously gonna hammer him? Ending the day this early without giving DC a change to claim?

I believe you mean "chance" to claim, yes?

[DiamondCrash]

Could

be. But I said that they "can be a scumtell". Reading between the lines says "they

might

not".

Quit trying to use your indecisiveness to appear protown.

I see what you did there.

[DiamondCrash]

Could be. But I said that they "can be a scumtell". Reading between the lines says "they might not".

There's a reason you only said one and not the other.

Unsuprisingly. The reason being to give a reason.

So, you're telling us that you pretended to overreact as to promote discussion? Or did you actually overreact, and trying to think of an excuse?

I'm telling you that I reacted to nothing as nothing is all there was. I would also argue that I didn't overreact - I solely responded to points against me as anyone would. You'd be equally on my case were I ignoring things.

And how would I? I ignored it; how would I have been on your case if you had?

No, I mean rolling with the punches. Do I

look

like a flock-follower to you?[/quote]
Just late to the party.

My first newbie game was 5 pages long.

Was that how long you lasted, or how long it actually went on for?

In fact, I would ask a claim of DC for as long as he is at -1.

Right, I'll give you a claim. In fact, why haven't you asked for it yet, considering you're the one that put me at L-1?

I claim Town Roleblocker.

The real reason why I wondered about SC's role was because I didn't want to block a potential doc.

[DiamondCrash]

Oh yeah, cop. Not doc. Sorry.

My first newbie game was 5 pages long.

How long the entire thing took.

Can we have a link?
