Considering, you know, xyzzy just got replaced, I don't think this is a good point. It seems kind of paranoid, and I bet xyzzy has a reputation for lurking.UltimaAvalon [4] wrote:
Oh wait, I lied Vote: xyzzy cus he's just gonna mad lurk all game anyway.
Weird first post. This looks like it could be saying "Xyzzy never picked up his night-talk PMs, so I'm mad", though since this is the first post of the game I'm taking it completely in a vacuum. I certainly pick up a hint of something, but I'll park it for now and see if anything else comes up that indicates similar.

I also like Mert's posting. Good replacements. This is a bit weird though:-

Third and final "catching up" post of death:
Weak defense followed by obvious deflection.UltimaAvalon [303] wrote:So apparently MoS noticed I didn't self-vote, decided to do that "View only UA's posts" thing, then commented on why every single one of them was scummy without even reading them in context. So my defense of the whole post will be two lines.
1) I'm not going to give people free Prophecy points
2) Context
Also, Lazy is scum. Also, I can't remember if I'm even voting him or not. SoUnvote Vote: Lazy
You can consider it a confirm vote too, if you swing that way
Emphatically this.Mastermind of Sin [304] wrote:This defense is a pure case ofnon sequitur, once again showing that UltimaAvalon can only use fallacious "reasoning", so to speak.
Gah, he said vis-a-vis again!Mastermind of Sin [311] wrote:Is this in response to me? I didn't even say anything about UltimaAvalon's "reason", so to speak, for voting Lazy. I was speaking purely of his actions vis-a-vis defense of himself, per se.
You said before that you had a reason for playing like this. I really think you need to share that soon because to us lay people it just looks like bad play.Tarhalindur [316] wrote:That looks like a scum excuse to me.
There's playing aggressively and then there's using blatantly silly or insulting posts to deflect attention from the fact that you don't really have an answer. I fear this is the latter.UltimaAvalon [338] wrote:DoS: Define "Complain" for me, please, so I may inform you why you're retarded
Same again. You can't just shout at somebody until they stop suspecting you if you give them no other reason to stop. It looks like that's what you're doing here though.UltimaAvalon [346] wrote:@MoS: Well, if you're just going to sit there, speaking latin, MSU, and let your scumbuddy DoS do your attacking for you, I'll sit here here and ignore you, k?
Not necessarily. Sometimes it is useful to hold your thoughts back temporarily if you feel the reactions to you doing so will be of more value to the town. I agree with you in the main, however.foolinc [348] wrote:You know that not sharing information is generally not a townie thing to do, right?
So that's where the Bubka wagon began. Worth noting for later.pickemgenius [356] wrote:need... more... pressure applicaiton...
vote: bubka
Because you're not voting for him, along with a bunch of other people? Seems pretty obvious to me. *Shrug*.UltimaAvalon [357] wrote:Why hasn't bubka been lynched yet?
Why does he? Because he hasn't posted much and needs pressure? I'm not sure I'm buying this wagon at this point in time.Flameaxe 358] wrote:Do you realize that you aren't even voting Bubka? We should work on changing that, because he does, in fact, need more votes as of now.
:goodposting:Kakeng [368] wrote:Are you sure its a good idea to lynch him this early? We still have 2 weeks to discuss.
This wagon grew very rapidly with no real content posts from any of the people on it. This worries me and I will certainly be looking into this in greater depth tomorrow.
Inclined to agree at this point.Lowell [381] wrote:I like kakeng's post. He's town.
Finally an actual reason to suspect him. It's still about lurking but this time at least it's with evidence of him actively avoiding this game.curiouskarmadog [397] wrote:Tar is correct, Bubka's last post here was 10/19, he has posted on this site a ton since then...I think he is trying to lay low to avoid suspicion..
And that about brings me up to where I entered the game. Phew.
Some conclusions then:
MoS, Kakeng and CKD strike me as most town at the moment.
UA and Tarhalindur strike me as least likely town at the moment.
I feel we heard a criminally small amount from CTD since he replaced, Lowell (obv), FaerieLord and Stark during today and I'll be expecting far more contribution to the town's objectives over the coming days.
I'm kinda "meh" about lynching Bubka although I agree that with the deadline it's probably the best play. I would ideally like to see a claim from him prior to deadline, but I'm not even certain he's going to post here again at this point.
I have this gut feeling that he's town but the reason that I still think he is the best play here is because of the rapidness and reaction to his bandwagon. I am certain there is at least one scum on that list of early adopters and I think that knowing his alignment will provide opportunity for some juicy analysis tomorrow.

He'd be vigged instantly.Mert wrote:Claiming Vig is blatantly provable and if he fake claimed Vig then he'd basically be making sure the scum kills are directed by the town until he gets lynched.

I'm not saying we hunt down and kill the Survivor, I'm saying that if he claims Survivor then there's no reason not to still lynch him as though he'd claimed Townie.[i]"Awesome Proton Pack, Flay!"[/i] - [size=75][b]Petroleumjelly[/b][/size]

I think that Bubka is a bit scummier than you do, but I agree that hammering him will give us some information for day 2 and beyond.Mert wrote: I have this gut feeling that he's town but the reason that I still think he is the best play here is because of the rapidness and reaction to his bandwagon.

Hammer already. He's not showing up here. He's given up. He's playing chess in the chess forum with mith. He's scum, he's been caught, he vanished.Paraphrasing a role PM takes seconds, fabricating a good fakeclaim takes an eternity.

I think this is right. It's not that uncommon for scum to get caught, then pretend to "forget" or whatever so as to save a little personal pride. Just end it.DrippingGoofball wrote:Hammer already.

Except he wasnt lurking. He was active, then disappeared. That's different than lurking (not that I condone lurking...). To me it's like a kid getting upset and taking his ball and going home.
Basically (to meta-meta-game) I feel like theres a bigger pride issue that goes on when one is scum and facing an early lynch than when one is town. A townie can blame the lynch on the badness of others (and being vindicated posthumously) whereas a scum has to deal with the smug town that caught him. So hence the disappearing.-
