Mini 886 - Popcorn Mafia - Game over!

[Xylthixlm]

If I had the gun I would have already shot Sarag.

[AlmasterGM]

This game needs more Borge.

[rewq455]

Bogre if by any chance you're not going to shoot one of dos hacker sarag or almaster please just shoot me instead so I can frag the scum.

Thats not a very townie thing to say. We still get a dead townie from it.

Do you have anything else to add? None of your posts from the past week have been longer than one line.

@HackerHuck: How much discussion has there been in this game about the mechanics and proper play? A good amount. I have no reason to believe that it had anything to do with a lapse in understanding. (BTW, thanks for giving the scum an out if she couldn't or didn't think of that as an excuse.) I wanted everyone to commit to one player based on the upcoming announcement in order to possibly see someone making a major unexplained change in suspicion. Would it have given us anything concrete? Maybe.

Could

it have? Maybe; and that's enough for me. I don't understand what about my post 469 gives you the impression that I have any doubts about my find.

What makes you think we'll get a dead townie from it?

There has been a lot of discussion and there has still been confusion. It's borderline scummy to try and string someone up just for confusing the mechanics of this game.

You either forgot to answer or are choosing not to answer my question about what was so obviously scummy in Sarag's post you referenced.

[Sarag]

I know it's lame to be prodded and then immediately go

V/LA

but

I won't be able to post until Dec 28th

. If Elmo wants to replace me, that's fine - I've consistently had a lot of trouble keeping up with this game. But I'm also happy to keep playing after Christmas and I may be able to find more time for mafia then.

[HowardRoark]

The answer is that it is a

scum

slip. Sarag was a possible target D1. She knew that. She was afraid of being shot and therefore not being around D2. To paraphrase Bogre: I'm not

afraid

of being shot. There is no reason to fear the business end of the gun . . . unless you are scum.

I think you have picked up the totally wrong part of the slip.

[HowardRoark]

Someone is actually doing some of the work for themselves.

[HackerHuck]

Well, I'm not convinced she's town so I don't see much value in me arguing the point any further. That said, if Xyl's got a point that hasn't been addressed, it would be a good idea to let Bogre know what the big scumtell is - unless you're also holding back to get reactions.

[ortolan]

skirting the edge of "play to win" stuff. Don't, please.

I trust my own chance of hitting scum better than anyone else's. It is still playing to win.

Then you are a fool.

What makes you think we'll get a dead townie from it?

Assuming ort is town, which i doubt, if he gets shot Bogre dies. Then the scum is one step closer to winning. In looking back though, its not really a scummy thing to say either because then a scum member dies. All around, I guess it was just a stupid thing to say.

Are you claiming to be the best town player here? I highly doubt that you are.

If this isn't scum attempting to look town I will be amazed.

I am claiming my scumlist is more accurate than anyone else's, and I trust it way better.

You

How is this relevant to you trusting your own chances better than anyone else's?

[ortolan]

I will try a different tack. I trust my own methodology better than those of other people. I think they are going with the horrible "consensus" wagons when they should be going with the people acting like scum would act. I agree with you that Sarag is scum, btw.

I see a gaping hole in this logic.

[ortolan]

...didn't I tell you to shoot me already? Luckily Bogre actually seems to have a clue.
