Mini 732: Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Mafia (Game Over!)

[MeMe]

I'll do what I can to get hold of Glork -- if I don't hear from him/he hasn't appeared within 48 hours, mith will take over (thanks much for offering!)

[Malyss]

Back on March 6, I sent Glork a PM to request that I be replaced. My scoliosis has been acting up a lot lately and I've been in a bit too much pain to sit and read and participate. I'm going to finish out the newb game that I'm in but that's about it.
All apologies.

[Master Ruck]

I'm pretty sure that's 48 hours now. Mith, does this mean you're taking over?

[MeMe]

Yes -- 48 hours are up and no response from Glork via PM, email, AIM, or his personal blog. I'll contact mith and, in the meantime, send him your role PM. Thanks!

[mith]

Since this is a smalltown setup, all I need is a PM from one of the scum. Thank you.

Malyss has also requested replacement. I'll work on finding someone for that.

Doing some reading up to determine whether D2 should end now or if there should be a deadline extension.

[mith]

Important:

Given that one player is being replaced, and given that Glork didn't post a vote count the entire day, I have decided to give you an extension. Once Malyss is replaced, you will have a maximum of 48 hours.

Vote Count:

4 to lynch.

Gorrad: 2 (Porochaz)
Porochaz: 2 (Gorrad, Master Ruck)
Master Ruck: 1 (Yosarian2)

Not Voting: 3 (hasdgfas, Malyss, Plum)

[Porochaz]

Time for the replaced players to vote methinks.

[Porochaz]

Edit: or even just the non voting players

[Gorrad]

Headed to New York City from the 14th through the 18th. LA, if not less.

[Porochaz]

cow? Plum? Fancy contributing. Mith can we get a prod on these players, thanks.

[Yosarian2]

Yeah, we need a prod on people, definatly.

I still am reasonably happy with my vote on Ruck, I suppose.

[Plum]

Hello, friends -

Now it seems we have a guaranteed bit of time before deadline actually hits, so having seen Yos2's case against Master Ruck, I want to take a look at the guy:

Yos2 makes the point of Master Ruck's wishy-washyness on the subject of Tony - the rather useless 'this could be scumtell - but then again it's reasonable to expect it of anyone' multiple times. Importantly, he never

gives

a real opinion on Tony, even though he's obviously a very likely lynch . . . that does it. I've seen scum be quiet as lynches go once or twice too many times. Gorrad sorta beats that by at least taking a firm stance on the thing and having previously said he'd be away that weekend.

we could always stick our watcher on rishi and confirm gorrad for cumulative tracker. From N0 events I'm willing to give +town points to both watcher and weak doc so have them confirm gorrad and we'll have effectively 3 town investigative roles.

Also given N0 events I think we say it's reasonably unlikely that me, rishi, fuzzy, has, and porochaz- it's bad for town to immediately discount the possibility as among the any of these groups could have taken a wifomic approach to their night actions.

Because of the potential usefulness of gorrad and our ability to control mega's kill I think they should also be taken off the lynch list.

That leaves us with a lynch list of plum, ruck, malyss, and tony...

Can you explain that middle part a bit better as I keep getting lost when trying to understand it. As for your 4 possible lynches, I would pick Tony as he is the one who gives town the least to lose. Granted, me, Plum, and malyss don't add all that much either in terms of our role but Tony adds nothing so he is the safe lynch. Though, that is if we want to go for a safe lynch on D1 or if we want to search a bit more for some scum tells.

Even quietly suggesting possibly going for a safe lynch Day 1 instead of maximizing scumhunting?

Vote: Master Ruck

So now it seems we have three players each at two votes.

Mod Note:

Empking replaces Malyss.

Deadline:

Tuesday, March 17, 12:00 GMT (about 55 hours from this post).

[mith]

Vote Count:

4 to lynch.

Gorrad: 2 (Porochaz)
Master Ruck: 2 (Plum, Yosarian2)
Porochaz: 2 (Gorrad, Master Ruck)

Not Voting: 2 (Empking, hasdgfas)

[Empking]

Reading up, any questions ask them.

[Empking's Alt]

Gorrad are you taking a role today?

Due to the low activity of the game I only really got gut reads on players.

Vote: Ruck

Empking (replaces Malyss D2) - Bad Horse (Pseudo-Ascetic)
Porochaz - Bad Horse Ensemble (Doublevoter) - It seemed to me like he was lurking at the beggining of day 2 but aside from that I've been getting a pro-town read from him.
Yosarian2 (replaces Megatheory D2) - Captain Hammer (Vigilante) - I was getting a scum read on MT which I'm not disregarding but Y2's play seems like solid pro-town play.
Plum - Mayor (One-Shot Governor) - Seems to be lurking but her individual posts do seem like they're trying to help the town.
hasdgfas - Fan Club Boy (Bodyguard) - No read which is scummy in itself.
Gorrad - Moist (Universal Backup) - My gut says likely scum.
Master Ruck - Homeless Guy (Two-Shot Commuter) - He seems to be lurking and not trying to help the town to win.

[Master Ruck]

I've been running ideas through my head, but everything I come up with I instantly see the flaw in it that would take you all no time to pick at and bring it down. In hindsight I should have made a bit more of a town effort so I wouldn't be left in this corner, back against the wall.

Unvote
Vote: Ruck

[Empking]

And that's a lynch by self-hammer.

[Master Ruck]

Yes it is.

[Yosarian2]

Dude...if you're town, why would you do that? We still had time left, we were waiting for a replacement, and we really needed to lynch right today.

On a side note, if I die tonight, it almost certanly means that Gorrad is scum.

[mith]

Final Vote Count:

4 to lynch.

Master Ruck: 4 (Empking, Master Ruck, Plum, Yosarian2)
Gorrad: 2 (Porochaz)
Porochaz: 1 (Gorrad)

Not Voting: 1 (hasdgfas)

Master Ruck, Homeless Guy (MAFIA Two-Shot Commuter) has been lynched. It is Night 3. Choices due Wednesday, March 18, 17:00 GMT.

[mith]

It is Day 3. Deadline is three weeks from this post.

[Empking]

Who claims first?

[Yosarian2]

I think Gorrad does.

Either he just blocked the scum, or he just protected the guy the scum was about to kill, or he's the scum and he chose not to kill in order to make it look like he stopped the kill. Either way, he's the one I want to hear from.

[Yosarian2]

Oh; it just occured to me that it's also possible the scum tried to kill you, empking, and your astetic role saved you. It's not likely, though; considering the risk of targeting you is so high here. Most likely, Gorrad is the key here.
