Criminy... Now Kafka's cockroach is casting an absurd vote for me!

I can prove I am a Townie very easily, by the way, and at no risk to the Town, because although my role is lots of fun, it's not a power role by a stretch. One neat thing about it is that there are already 2 people in the game that can confirm me, and if there is a volunteer I can arrange for a third to confirm me tonight! I'll gladly give details if you find me so scummy that it becomes necessary, but it's probably marginally better for the Town if I don't.

Waste your time on me if you so please, but you are better off on some other bandwagon.

Airotcia may or may not be scum, but from having played with her before I know that her behavior in this game doesn't point to either. I'd rather vote for someone actually scummy, rather than for "poor play" which in this instance is dubious to say the least.

2. Tell us what is scummy about Monty, BabyJesus and ryanjunk.
3. Who are your scumpartners?

Oh, I like your vote too, I like all votes, I love votes!

But here we got someone who won't even show up to his own funeral... ryanjunk.

He's "not really lurking," and is, in his own words, in a "holding pattern." Other than that he declines to explain why he sees nothing of note in 11 pages.

I think we've somehow lost our focus on finding scum here, and are quagmired in meandering, confusing discourse.

Post 150 Monty makes a big effort to say that Fritz and Logicticus were scum. In retrospect I would say that this may mean that Logicticus may in fact NOT be scum.

Man, this is a tough game. I re-read everything and it's the only thing I am semi-certain of.

I think we ought to bandwagon-to-talk rather than bandwagon-to-lynch... Just to get things going. We still have to lynch the right person, even though there might be a few pointless bandwagons to the way there.

I have a question for TSAgod: when you say "I knew with 90% certainty that he wasn't town," where does the 90% come from?

Well, I am going to vote TSAGod for the sole purpose of getting this game moving.

He will now have 5 votes, 7 needed to lynch. Please be careful. We need to get people talking, it's not happening, and I see no other way. My goal here is not so much to lynch TSAGod, whom I do not find particularly scummy, but to make someone talk about the game in a significant manner. TSAGod is "it," simply because he has the most votes, and it will be the most expedient.

Let's get this show rolling at last...

Yikes! We cannot risk a no-lynch, we have to scramble to find the scum here. It's so frustrating how little we have to go on.

I don't want power roles outed, but maybe those with roles that can confirm townieness should come forward? Maybe just a couple of people so as not to narrow the field for the scum?

DrippingGoofball · Post Post #453 (isolation #49) » Sun Mar 12, 2006 8:02 am

DrippingGoofball · Post Post #455 (isolation #50) » Sun Mar 12, 2006 10:23 am

I thought my role was really silly but now I realize it's not so silly, after all. I got hit by lightning, and put two and two together. After 3 nights, I think I understand what it is I am doing.

Airotcia is the real doctor.

Bertrand is quite probably Mafia but I am not 100% sure.

I am comfortable lynching him.

DrippingGoofball · Post Post #458 (isolation #51) » Sun Mar 12, 2006 10:53 am

I would like to add that I cannot be certain about Airotcia and Bertrand's claims. While I have some info about it, it is very cryptic and I am not sure if the flavor of my role would even have me trust it 100%. Still - with all the uncertainty, it's the best I've got. The only way to be sure is to test it. I am sure that the Mafia will take care of "testing" Airotcia tonight, now that she's claimed doctor, so either way that'll be information I can use to see things more clearly perhaps.

I am keeping my vote on bertrand because I don't think he's the real doctor at all.

olio wrote:And did you think about situation where both scum groups target the same person thus directing two kills against one protection?

I am a bit surprised at this defense of a theory that is pretty much indefensible.

Usually if there are two doctors, one would be expected to be a backup doc.

Two normal doctors? If true, the Town would be put in the position of killing both of its doctors if they both claimed. That's right, BOTH! When one turns up Townie, the Town would have to lynch the other one, too, believing the second one to be the scum claim by elimination... hahahaha, that's too funny.

Not to mention the docs protecting each other

ad infinitum

!

No way two scum groups would end up overtly communicating to coordinate killing the doctors. Patently absurd!

Passdog, sadly, no, I looked up my mail and logic did not share his choice of recruit.

Airotcia is the only player who is not confirmed by a cop investigation, or by being a Mason. Am I right?

The only thing I can see is that she is a Mafia Doctor.

Maybe the cop results are wrong on Twomz or TSAGod.

Could we lynch TSAGod or Twomz, and investigate Airotcia and the last of the trio?

No matter who we pick for the lynch, Twomz or TSAGod, isn't the Town pretty sure to win by the next morning? My calculations may be wrong, please double-check.

DrippingGoofball · Post Post #564 (isolation #60) » Sun Mar 26, 2006 2:32 am

Here are my results:

Night 0: Airotcia, syringes
Night 1: bertrand, spaghetti
Night 2: ryanjunk, communication device (he died that night a Mason)

That's when I fugred out I was getting role hints. When Airotcia and bertrand claimed doctor. I was pretty sure my hints meant that Airotcia was doc, and that bertrand had a... Sicilian connection!

Night 3: olio, communication device
Night 4: BabyJesus, brand new board game
Night 5: TSAGod, syringes

We might have TWO Mafia groups. My Spaghetti Mafia, and a Board Game Mafia.

Two groups may mean 2 godfathers.

Now, pretty much everyone is confirmed one way or another by cops or the mason group.

Therefore, there is someone who is confirmed by a cop, but who is Mafia.

But who?

Masons (100% confirmed)

Passdog
DrippingGoofball
VitaminR

Remaining suspects

TSAGod -confirmed by VR - syringes confirmed by me.
Airotcia - confirmed by DG - syringes confirmed by me.
Twomz - confirmed by VR

Twomz is our guy. TSA described his claimed role as "used up multi-function" - sounds godfatherific to me.
