He means too many scum

And though I don't know a whole lot about balance, this does seem balaneced.

bird1111, what do you think about bandwagons?

I think they are a useful tool for getting reactions, though you do have to watch out for scum-driven ones

What about the ones that make newbie townies get defensive and look scummy? Couldn't bandwagons be bad that way?

Sometimes, but the info that can be gained from those bandwagons, whether they go lynch or not can be useful.

hmmm, both of the people who have their vote on you haven't posted on this page yet. I haven't come across a hard definition of what lurking is, but 4 days and greater than one page should qualify.

They could be busy with exams or some other real life thing, several players in the game I'm modding are, in which case their lurking would be excusable

[bird1111]

If I were a mason OR scum, I'd probably be lurking right now. Just something to think about.

Why would a Mason lurk?

[bird1111]

True, but the townies should not be lurking and so therefore neither should the masons. Lurking will only make things easier for the scum.

[bird1111]

Though while we cannot afford to have the masons eliminate the scum alone, but their knowledge, if held secert can help us find scum if everyone scumhunts; as they most likely will try to lead us away from their partners without making it obvious.

[bird1111]

True.

I've started do that in my later games (ie this game, SC's game, and Blue Jam)

Maybe because those of us that are actually participating want the rest of the people in the game to join in?

Unvote

; way past time to have a random vote on.

[bird1111]

The problem with lurkerhunting is it is often a useful distraction for the scum to use. Usually if a scum is lurking, they are only posting enough to avoid lurkerhunters and prods.

[bird1111]

If they aren't posting at all, it is better to have the mod prod/replace them.

How is it harder to hide? You aren't participating in the disscussion so it can be harder to spot you; and by doing so, you avoid the notice of people who focus purely on those who look for those who don't post at all.

Vote: A Papaya

If you are a townie, your not keeping your promise to post content is not going to help the town, especially in the long run.

[bird1111]

EXACTLY what I've been saying, it's the same thing as saying you are going to post and than now posting ANYTHING of help to finding scum. It's counterproductive and not helpful one bit to the town. Papaya is definetly lurking and giving off lots of scummy tendencies

So, not posting content is a scumtell. As far as I can tell, I've posted about 5 times on this thread. 3 of those posts where from before content was necessary. Is that enough to warrant a

lynch

?

It is not so much that you have not posted content, the main reason why you are being voted is because you promised to post content and you

didn't

; which considering the fact that you tried to stall doing so is enough for a lynch, especially since we don't have much else to go on at the moment.

Will be away from tommorow until Tuesday.

Sorry for my lack of posting; was on two different vacations without access with little time imbetween.
