ortolan, if by some strange chance you are not scum, you are a flaming idiot of the highest caliber.

You'd better be scum.

bogre's not even gonna shoot me, he's gonna shoot the scum. Also I'm not an idiot to want the gun so I can frag the scum. Who wouldn't?

Someone who wants the town to win?

Nice appeal to emotion btw.

Appeal to emotion is fine, as long as I can say after the game that I AtE the scum.

What was the point of that whole charade, then?

This attitude is exactally why town always loses "bad idea mafia" style games.

If you look at the classic bad idea mafia setup, it's so incredibly weighted towards the town it's insane, but scum have won all but 1 of those games, as well as almost all other daykill games. Because some town people are so overconfident, and the overconfident people seem to be wrong way more often then even a random kill would have been.

I'm not even going to call this a scum tell, becuase I've seen way to many town do it. But it's stupid.

However, continuing to read, ortolan's later posts look scummier. He claimes he knew Bogre didn't want to shoot him, and when almaster asks why he said all that then, which is a good question, he just calls him scum and ignores it. Which really makes the whole thing look like a scum gambit.

Question for ya'll:
Do you think Ortolan is gambitting?

Yosarian2 · Post Post #510 (ISO) » Sat Dec 26, 2009 1:46 pm

I really didn't think ort was gambiting, until this page.

Now, after that sequence of posts, I'm more suspicious of him.

He still wouldn't be one of my top suspects, though. I'd bet money right now that Howard is scum, and DOS is still just gliding along without saying much of his own.

If ortolan is town gambiting . . . what is the point? I don't see how it leads to finding scum.

ortolan · Post Post #512 (ISO) » Sat Dec 26, 2009 2:18 pm

It doesn't lead to finding scum, I already found the scum. As I said, unless Bogre is gonna shoot one off my list today, please shoot me, so I can actually vig all the scum tomorrow instead of watching more horrible mislynches

ortolan · Post Post #513 (ISO) » Sat Dec 26, 2009 2:19 pm

I guess you could call it a gambit

I'm having computer problems so I won't be able to really post for a while.

Mod: request replacement.

Shooting ortolan is a good idea but not for this reason.

This is correct.

I don't like how DoS is skating by, but he's not alone. There are a couple of others who are skating below the radar, but I can't remember who they are.

I'm going to have spotty access for the next couple of days due to travel.

AlmasterGM · Post Post #517 (ISO) » Mon Dec 28, 2009 5:12 am

Slicey hasn't made a substantive post for 12 days (e.g., almost all of Day 2), despite promises that activity would increase after finals ended.

Ortolan needs to be shot. I simply don't believe he would make this awful play as town.

DragonsofSummer · Post Post #519 (ISO) » Mon Dec 28, 2009 8:12 am

You may call it skating by, but my suspicions are out there, just because they are concurrent with yours doesn't mean I'm not thinking. I just don't feel the need to keep posting around Ort's ridiculousness.

luckily I am not, so when I get shot by a bunch of #$343 I will still win the game

Rereading still, have some ideas, will post questions if they come up.

HackerHuck · Post Post #524 (ISO) » Mon Dec 28, 2009 2:52 pm

@howardroark - Did Ortolan derail your push for Sarag or were you finished trying to press that case?

I don't think I've seen rewq in a little while. He may warrant a closer look.
