That cost still doesn't override 2 daykills though. 2 daykills is 2 daykills.
Here's an interesting question for you:

If we decide that we will absolutely lynch RayFrost in 2 days, no matter what... what's his incentive to kill as we direct the second day?

I still think Ray could be scum - after all, if the IK/Ray scumteam I brought up earlier was true, this would be exactly in line (Ray tries to live longer, and IK STILL gets townie cred.) More importantly, I can't think of anyone else I want to lynch in 24 hours. So let's ignore that unvote of mine and
vote: Rayfrost
once more.

This isn't a vote on a "lurking vote" I was the first one to bring Rayfrost up yesterday. This is a cheap ploy to try and satisfy your unexplainable urge to lynch me. Not lynching claimed scum is stupid.

Shotty, you've just been weak and sheepy for the latter part of today. Voting you makes you talk. See?

Hito, your IK/RF is a ridiculous pipe dream. IK would get just as much townie cred, hypathetically, if RF didn't claim SK and flipped scum. (there's any number of ways he could have exploded if he wanted to be lynched). There's not really a motivation for RayFrost to claim SK as scum here. If he wanted to last one more night, he'd claim some power role, not something that has a 80% chance to get him lynched anyway.

Not being able to find someone else to lynch is a more legitimate problem, but you have 24 hours. You can read some isos.

post 1577 is content.

Spyrex's pet list makes me curious, as almost none of his pets seem to die.

Because he put non-scummy people on it and he never actively pursues their lynch beyond mindless cries for them to die?

You know what the best part about that is?

Every other time he's brought up my desire to see that spot lynched since the days of Budja it's been mellow yellow.

This time, SERIOUS BUSINESS.

Now, if I'm around tomorrow I'll give you a real case. Doubly so if we kill RF and get woosh.

If I'm dead just assume I gave a lot of awesome words and lynch them both for me. Or, at the VERY least I want at least TWO of you sillies to go through and iso him real close. Real real close.

Yeah I've tried to be reasonable with you and I'm sick of your shit this time around. Post your fucking case, making threats and alluding to your supposedly awesome case doesn't help anyone.

It helps me. See, eventually the deluge of VI's and silly SK's will be done with and we can get to serious business.

Just because NOW isn't the time doesn't change the fact that it will be later.

Fume all you want though. All things come to those who wait. My pet lynch list isn't going anywhere and if we, in essence, waste this lynch on the SK then maybe there wont be a huge list of secret connections and the related funny business and I can actually get traction goin.

The fact that you've tunneled this hard this long is sad. Keep pressing this bullshit all you want, no one's paying any attention to it because the fact you've had it since D1 without any serious posts about it means it was a load of crap then and most likely still is.

I'm not saying SK affirms it. My main reason for suspecting that scumteam is IK 1363 and Ray's subsequent super-scummy give up flumph. Claiming SK seems to be something no scum would do (to some at least; I don't see why not personally) but the funny thing is that the whole SK thing can be seen as a digression. If we lynch RF and it turns out he's scum, whether or not he flips SK makes no difference in terms of the boost to IK's town cred (as this quoted post suggests). I'm not saying an SK claim proves RF/IK scumteam, but it doesn't disprove my reason for originally thinking so and I don't think having a pet SK is worth trying to rush a quicklynch on someone else when an RF lynch is by his own admission eventually necessary and I'd really like find out if he's telling the truth.

You can't wait 1 day to find out? Even one? I don't see any reason to doubt his claim either. I mean, when someone claims Cop with 2 day kills, you should be suspicious, but when someone gets absolutely as close as you can get to claiming scum, why doubt their claim?



*wants to play another game with Spyrex*



Let's just policy lynch Zakeri. He hardly posts ever.

ಠ_ಠ


Normally I would like the IK attack on ray, but not in this context. IK was doing the defeated townie thing for a while there, but then at 1363 it was like a switch was flipped.

I really get the feel that IK-scum was like, "I'm just gonna act like a defeated townie would - oh wait! I can bus my scum partner instead! 1363!"

And ray was like "aw **** it, I'm bored of this game anyway. I guess I'll just say the most throwaway, lackadaisical things I can to piss everyone the hell off, get me out of this game on the Necktie Express, and give some townie credit to my scum partner."

Of course it could also be IK-town acting like a defeated townie because he WAS a defeated townie, and then saying, "Oh wait! I could try
actually contributing
instead of moping and whining at everyone! 1363!" But the first seems to make more sense to me in this context.

Since there's no danger of a quick-hammer in plurality, I'm gonna join the party and
vote: Rayfrost
. And if he flips scum we should consider an IK lynch next for such quality reasons as
IK 1404 wrote: Never did I say "woe is me". I didn't give up, as you seem to indicate. To me an appeal to emotion involves a sort of "you're gonna feel sorry for lynching a townie" sort of thing going on, or "everybody's picking on me, I didn't do anything wrong".
because that kind of throws a wrench in the idea that he was a defeatist townie who tried to save himself via activity. That explanation only works if you are cognizant of the idea that you were, in fact, being defeatist and not contributing and saying woe is me.
This was before Ray's claim. I would fine-tune it but the core principle is essentially the same - I find your bi-polar hop extremely scummy, and the fact that it started with a single pointed argument on ray suggests he's your scum partner and his throw away statements were...before I would have said, painting an obvious target on himself because he wanted to leave and this way it would be a good tactic for him to do so. But now I'd have to tweak it to, painting an obvious target on himself because his plan was to claim sk anyway.

Why is my "bi-polar hop" extremely scummy? Would you rather I had given up? Sorry, if I'm gonna die I'm gonna go down fighting.

Ray has been posting pathetically for longer than the wagon has been on him. You're trying to bend things in a way that ties me to Ray, when there really is
nothing
for you to go on. Hell, RC's case against me was better than this.

And you need to look up the definition of "defeatist". I don't think you know what it means.

IK, are you denying that you were passive and defeatist earlier today? And that post 1363 marked the beginning of a significant play-style shift on your part? I don't like to ask questions instead of posting analysis because I think it's scummy, but this is a big one.

Yes, I'm denying it. Defeatist implies giving up. I didn't. As for passivity, I don't think it's wise to always beat one's brains out against a wall solely to be a stubborn jackass. I screwed up with the CSL thing by not following my instincts. But I also know it was my fault alone that I was on the wagon, and while I believed CSL to be scum, I should have given a replacement a chance. I didn't. I'm not going to argue what I don't believe.

As for the play-style shift, I don't think it's as big a leap as you think.

Thank you a million times for being the only one with a little common sense. Shame on Spyrex and pops for trying to take it upon themselves to assign the lynch with 24 hours to go!

We lose the SK-directed kill, but we gain more information when we eventually lynch someone who isn't RayFrost. This was a close decision before we learned that majority had been reached; throw in the fact that we need to decide the lynch in 24h, and I think RayFrost is clearly the best option.
I agree with this.

I understand where you are coming from, but remember, we have the choice to lynch a known anti-town role, versus lynching an unknown and opening up the daykilling of more unknowns. Having more than one daykill may put us closer to lylo/mylo than we might be aware of. Having a non-town powerole will be a very bad thing then.

we are lynching rayfrost, and i would ask everyone not voting for him to stop being stupid. the daykills were fun while they lasted, but its time to get real.

also, fhq is town, we've been over this. i suppose i shouldn't be surprised that the sk and scum tried to get him quicklynched inside the 24 hour window.
