OK, now for posting.
Vote: mrfixij
I
still
don't like mrfixij. Here are the recent reasons why:
He was a little
too
eager to believe the doc claim from someone who we now know to be scum. He even suggested that there might be two docs. Two docs is just crazy unbalanced. It is far more reasonable to assume that one of the claimed docs is lying scum, and at that point in time, Volkan was the obvious choice for the lynch. Mrfixij's two-doc suggestion looked to me like mjfixij wanted to side with volkan, but avoid alienating bio, who he must have known was the real doc. He then takes RBT's suggestion that neither of them should be lynched. He states that it is wrong to lynch a claimed doc, especially because they both hinted at a power role. This is incorrect, because his only evidence that Volkan hinted at a power role was that he was reluctant to claim. Power roles are reluctant to claim, but so are scum and townies (at least good townies). Townies want to avoid claiming to draw the NK away from power roles, and scum want to avoid it because claiming a power role is risky, and claiming VT doesn't help them. Xtoxm then makes the point that bio-scum would not have counterclaimed because it would be a stupid move for scum. After all of his efforts to keep Volkan alive, mrfixij then immediately concedes and votes Vol, with nothing more than a "Makes sense, Xto."
D2 opens, and mrfixij immediately jumps on Pyro because bio was the ideal NK for Pyro-scum. This is a bad argument for two reasons. Firstly because a confirmed doc is ALWAYS THE IDEAL KILL FOR THE MAFIA (
well, maybe not always, but in the vast majority of situations
) Secondly, even if Pyro was the only one who had anything to gain by killing bio, mrfixij's argument completely ignores the possibility that scum killed bio to frame Pyro through WIFOM. The fact that mrfixij comes charging out of the gates with this particular argument rather than other arguments on Pyro's behavior suggests that this particular attack was planned during the night.
Incidentally, mrfixij, would you mind compiling a case against Pyro? You just keep saying "He's Scum, lynch him!" without supplying any case beyond bio being the ideal Pyro-scum NK, which I believe I've just shown to be a poor argument.
Also, just for the record, I'd like to say that my suspicions of OP from yesterday are completely gone. He's confirmed in my eyes.
Argument is meant to reveal the truth, not to create it.
