Yeah, might be good to ask if "words" can be phrases and stories.

@Aero,
Care to weigh in?

I would rather it be less in random stories and more snuck into common conversation from now on. Good question.

Sorry, thanks for clarifying, I'll do that from now on!
I think what Aristo was asking though, was whether a "word" that someone gets assigned can be a phrase or story (correct me if I'm wrong, Aristo).

Are we lynching marbles, or not? For a bunch of peeps telling me to weigh in, the silence is a little unnerving.

Of the three votes on me, I think there is at least one scum in there. I think Postie is town, as her reason for scumreading me is correct (sort of: I found out that a common trait of newbscum is having a lower activity rate than usual. But I'm actually town this game, and my reason for lower than usual activity is because I'm more busy with life than before). I also think Lane is town, as after having read a few games about him, he feels town. (Though I have to think more about him being on all three 4-wagons, and being the L-1 vote twice)

But contrast it with this post:

Also, H&H, stop freaking out that Postie must be scum with Ari or some bs like that because she unvoted when he reached L-1 but not with BNL because she unvoted when I reached L-1, so unless you're theorising a three-player scumteam, your logic is fundamentally flawed.

BNL is a good lynch, so I'll swap onto that if I can't get lane to happen.

Actually the amount of support for the BNL lynch is concerning. I think every single person except H&H, TheCow, and Flubber has pushed the wagon. I'm townreading H&H and TheCow, so that leaves BNL/Flubber as the only likely scumteam if BNL is scum - but then, why not lynch Flubber since he's going to be harder to read?

Hey Dav! I know you're into Dr. Who so I wanted to ask what you think of that line "Would you like a jelly baby?" Like I hear it all the time but it seems really strange to me, is that a normal thing in England or what? What even is a Jelly Baby? Does it come from the world of J.R.R. Toklien?

I apologize for not being here in a while, RC has been flipping out about Postie and I haven't been able to log in until now but I think I've talked him down a bit and we're back to this: VOTE: Aristo. I'll talk about this in a sec but first--I'm not sure what all the fuss is about for the BNL wagon.

Yeah, I really disliked it as well.
I guess this is my first place to reread and reconsider my Readsllist...

Can you all explain why you dislike it so much? Aristo's post was only 2 before BNL's, I don't think BNL was deliberately misrepping something that could easily be read in full by anyone who bothered to look. I've done this before (highlighting only the relevant parts as I see it) and people jumped all over me for it even though it came from town!me. I don't think it's BNL being scummy and his reaction seemed pretty calm. I also don't like how fast this wagon popped up. Fast wagons give me really icky feelings.

In post 393, lane0168 wrote:We do have a cop
Wow, I didn't realize this was an open setup for some reason.

Cool, I rescind that then!


This feels just as fake as everything else Aristo has said about this game that has supposedly been a "townslip." There is no way that he could have opened this thread up on page 1 without seeing the bright green "6 VTs, 1 Cop, and 2 goons," and we have been talking about the cop so much that even if he had missed it originally, I'd think he would at least check the setup to see why there was an assumption of there being a cop at all.

Okay holy shit it's past 4 am and I need to wake up early tomorrow because I'm a commuter and apparently my professor wants to have a make-up class for a day when she was at some doctor's appointment or something so that's going to suck.

pedit: thank you postie, and I think I am leaning town on you once again. Crap.

K. Here's where I'm at:

Town: H&H, TheCow, Davsto
Null, but shouldn't be too hard to figure out: BNL
Complete null: GL, Aristo, Flubber, lane

I have way too many null reads.
My gut still says town on Aristo but lilith made some good points.

A Jelly Baby is a type of sweet!

We don't tend to offer each other jelly babies all the time, though, that was just a weird Doctor Who thing, the earlier Doctors' "Fantastic!" or "Allons-y!"

Postie, again doesn't like a wagon that might actually go to lynch... Don't like all the hopping off wagons.

Rc, you may have been right about Postie, and now theyre just hopping off so they can say see? I did it with bnl too. Possibly.

Postie, why do you get off every wagon that gets momentum? I'm starting to get the feeling you don't actually believe in any of the wagons you have been on and are just trying to look town. If you believed in even one of them, you would have stayed on it

I thought the second half of the sentence was irrelevant to what I perceived to be a self-contradiction, so I snipped it.

It was an obvious joke, you edited it to make it look scummy. Stop lying.

How was it irrelevant at all?

You saw a self contradiction, with a joke attached, and you found that to be irrelevant. Why was it irrelevant when it was clearly the part that distinguished the entire sentence as a joke?

Surely you can see the relevancy here
