Large Normal 132: Desert Mafia (Over!)

[xRECKONERx]

It's confusing if mastin was the NK target, but given that I am quite sure that Khan is scum and one of mastin/Khan is scum, it's wifomy to me anyway. I would rather lynch Khan today.

Slaxx is still town to me based off of RP's reaction/flameout at the end of D1.

If we have a vig, please shoot Scott. Please. For the love of god.

But we don't have a vig so NEVERMIND.

DK, use DA LEEST again tonight for your jailkeep.

OKAY GOOD.

Even though you guys say mastin2 is scum, he is not the lynch for today, and I doubt he is scum after this. A town wouldn't go so in-depth with so much reads, the scum would obv. target them like this, plus mastin has been like this since the start of the day, mastin2 was a threat to the scum which you guys fail to see. Listen to his reads, carefully. This is coming from a town. It's either mastin or I who will be Nkilled next.

Literally.

Retarded.

[Untrod Tripod]

Ok we're caught up on VC now guys. Sorry about that.

I'll be on a train tomorrow for about 12 hours (8am to 8pm), so if lynch happens during that time, plz be on the honor system if I can't catch it and lock the thread from my phone.

[Silver1337]

Hiraki's aggressiveness is really getting to me.

[Silver1337]

Also, mastin doesn't seem super scummy imo.

[Hiraki]

Hiraki's aggressiveness is really getting to me.

You can't answer a single question.

Your annoyance and lurkiness has already gotten to me.

[Scott Brosius]

I cannot see scum randomly claiming VT D1 though. Silver has been useless but I do not think he's scum.

Who is scummy then Silver? You cannot just say something like Hiraki's aggressiveness is getting to you. Does that mean he is scummy? Not scummy?

V/LA until Tuesday hopefully.

[Silver1337]

I think he's scum, but it might have just been a mistake :3
Or I might have been the one who misunderstood :3
It takes time to think about it, ya know.
I think Mastin has actively scumhunted and is actually helping the town.

[Skyquiem]

I still am struggling to make heads or tails of the current situation. I do not understand Mastin being shot at all which leads me to believe he was the one who sent in the kill however his reaction today confuses the shit out of me. I'll continue attempting to ponder over it on my run tonight. Slaxx, where did your sudden paranoia or suspicion of us come or stem from, because if anything you're the person that should be near-certain that I am indeed town considering you've witnessed multiple of my games.

[Pine]

I don't see scum trying to off Mastin. He was one of the primary wagons yesterday, and likely to be again. Mastin does this wallposting bit when he's scum just as much as Town. More when he's scum, in fact.

Unvote

"Benedicto: May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. May your rivers flow without end, meandering through pastoral valleys tinkling with bells, past temples and castles and poets towers into a dark primeval forest where tigers belch and monkeys howl, through miasmal and mysterious swamps and down into a desert of red rock, blue mesas, domes and pinnacles and grottos of endless stone, and down again into a deep vast ancient unknown chasm where bars of sunlight blaze on profiled cliffs, where deer walk across the white sand beaches, where storms come and go as lightning clangs upon the high crags, where something strange and more beautiful and more full of wonder than your deepest dreams waits for you -- beyond that next turning of the canyon walls."
-Edward Abbey

mastin2 has been lynched. He was a vanilla townie. Night choices are due in 72 hours.

[Untrod Tripod]

“Now I am in the open again, out of the underworld. From up here Rainbow Bridge, a thousand feet below, is only a curving ridge of sandstone of no undue importance, a tiny object lost in the vastness and intricacy of the canyon systems which radiate from the base of Navajo Mountain…. Off in the east an isolated storm is boiling over the desert, a mass of lavender clouds bombarding the earth with lightning and trailing curtains of rain. The distance is so great that I cannot hear the thunder. Between here and there and me and the mountains it’s the canyon wilderness, the hoodoo land of spire and pillar and pinnacle where no man lives, and where the river flows, unseen, through the blue-black trenches in the rock."
-Edward Abbey

Day breaks and finds DeityKabuto dead. He was the town jailkeeper. With nine alive it's five to lynch.

Go.

DIE.

Vote: Kublai Khan

This has to happen, we might as well make peace with it now.

[Pine]

I'm going to go out on a limb and say KK + Silver = Scum.

The persistence with which Hiraki has pursued Silver suggests that Hiraki is Town, and his conviction suggests that he has genuine insight.

I refuse to believe that the KK/Mastin/InHim triangle was all Town.

Vote: Kublai Khan

PE: NINJA BASTARD

[xRECKONERx]

15 players.
1 dead scum, 5 dead townies.

Possibly distributions are either 4:11 or 5:9... my gut is telling me 4:11, which means we have 3 scum alive still versus 6 townies.

Worst case scenario, mislynches all the way down, the numbers at the start of the days are--
D4: 3v6
N4: 3v5
D5: 3v4

A KK lynch will either net us a scumlynch, or get a mislynch out of the way today that would cause us problems at lylo. Either way, it's the only option, unless people want to massclaim, but I'm firmly against it, I think.

[Kublai Khan]

72.

That's the number of times that mastin2 called me scum. Seventy-fucking-two times. 3 of them were before I even posted in this game.

Did anyone bother to read the content of mastin2's posts? The read-through was worse than I originally remembered. He brought up a scumchat scenario based on his reading of how my scumchat went in a previous game. Some people noted that "Hey, it's really unlikely that both of those two are scum together", so he seized on that and insisted that this means I'm scum.

Because regardless of what mastin2's role was, his goal was to get my lynched in this game as a means of revenge.

So, Reck, Pine, whomever else... If you want to lynch me, then do because you think I'm scum. Not because "mastin2 kept calling him scum and he turned up dead, so Khan must be scum", because I'm damn sure that must have been the plot all along.

[xRECKONERx]

If you're a PR, claim.
If you're a VT, then you understand we *have* to do this or else you'll be a game-losing possibility in lylo.
If you're scum, then keep on trying to fight us to the death.

[xRECKONERx]

I think we're looking at two scum in this list:
4. Kublai Khan
7. Silver1337
10. gorilla
13. Scott Brosius
14. Pine

And one scum elsewhere. I accidentally cleared a scummy bastard as town after that RP lynch, I just don't know who.

[xRECKONERx]

If KK flips town, we keep hitting within that list.

If KK flips scum, we start looking elsewhere for whoever slipped through the cracks.

This doesn't matter anymore, KK has to die, I don't care if he is a power role.

[xRECKONERx]

Actually, fuck my flip flopping.
mastin2 being the kill target pretty much confirms that KK is scum.

Why, you ask?
Because if KK wasn't scum, scum's best option would be to let the town keep squabbling and get two mislynches out of KK vs. mastin2.
However, when mastin2 goes into a 1v1 with KK, KK's only option is to kill him and go "lol guys but seriously why would I kill him if I were scum?" and play off the night WIFOM

[Slaxx]

Vote Kahn

Hi Mastin, this is me bussing.

[xRECKONERx]

stop playin', b

[Slaxx]

In all seriousness, we likely have one PR left and one mislynch left. So I should probs step up my game. Right?

After the Kahn flip expect a big post (if I live) but it wont be until next week I think.

Mod, V/LA from July 1-July 5-6

Or maybe not at all, depends if I have wireless internet where we are going.

[Silver1337]

@Pine: Yeah, but any real EVIDENCE about me bein' scum?
Khan is throwing the town around in circles, but I'm not yet ready to vote him.
