I never said "let's get into a long drawn out argument that benefits nobody but scum" and as far as I can see there aren't any signs that we were headed in that direction. Is there something that I was missing, or did you maybe pull away a bit prematurely?

Mafia roleblocker knows that the setup is either cop and a doc OR Jailkeeper and a BP. They don't know if there's a cop or not.

Guys, let's stop assuming that LQ's hint that there is a doc in necessarily true. Although, I do like the discussion it's generated (And I wouldn't be surprised if that was LQ's intent).
pedit: I see other people have also drawn this conclusion before I could post

LQ's one of the three SEs this game.
I'm the only IC.

I agree with your conclusion, though.

You told me to convince you that I'm town. That's basically the start of an argument between you and me if I try to do that directly.

Just clarifying in case what he meant to say was slightly off from what he said.

Personally I'd wait at least 24 hours from the beginning of the day to make sure that everyone got a fair chance to participate in their own time zone.
Also, with all this conversation we could honestly start scum hunting soon.

To clarify, you can scumhunt anytime. I mean that the post history will actually be useful for scumhunting.

Which is why I didn't tell you to do it directly, I just told you to do it and encouraged that you didn't just ignore me in the process.
But, that's neither here nor there; I'm townreading you as a result at this point and pushing a townread will only get me so far.

In post 49, Superhans wrote:LicketyQuickety I have asked you two questions:

1) What does IC mean. (Answered by Nachomma8 (thanks btw))

2) What do you mean with the cop thing.

Instead of slapping a scum read on me, can you at least my 2nd question?
See .
I kinda wanted Lickety to respond, thanks ConnorJC. Lickety, perhaps you want to add more to you answer that it was a reaction. What have you observed from this reaction test?
I think he was looking for someone to point out the fact that he looks like he has knowledge of the setup, but maybe I'm wrong.

Again, I would like to point out that although I appreciate your response, I was really hoping I could get a response from Lickety for this one.

In addition to the first question, I've a new question for LicketyQuickety:

You imply frequently that you have alternative ways of playing the game and making reads. This is demonstrated by the posts:
In post 47, LicketyQuickety wrote:Yes, well, I don't read people in a traditional way.
In post 6, LicketyQuickety wrote:I don't want the responsibility of having to give "correct" theory. Reason for this is I tend to think outside the box a bit.
And in your blurb thing you've written that "As someone with a creative pattern, you tend to seek unique accomplishments and innovative solutions. On the surface, you may seem to have a contradictory nature. ~Taken from my results regarding motivation from DISC personality test."

What do you think makes your game theory different to traditional game theory?
Also what are you non-traditional reads?

(For a more complete response, hunting lurkers or people who haven't contributed much at all is generally a good idea - most people are uncomfortable fooling people and thus have more trouble posting content as scum than town; you typically don't want to lynch someone for lurking because people lurk for many more reasons than their alignment, but if you have a bunch of townreads elsewhere and you're not ignoring something actively scummy just to lynch a lurker, then generally lurkerhunting is a good idea. In this particular situation, I prefer Lovesick over the other two since Lovesick's post was the most alignment-neutral; FP and Dom at least tried to do something with their opening while Lovesick just answered a question that she'd have the same answer to as either alignment).

Although if FancyPants/Lovesick is the scumteam I hope we all look back at this moment and have a nice chuckle about it.

Because he only has one post, and it's a vote for a pretty riciculous reason:
In post 8, FancyPants wrote:VOTE: TheDominator37

Terrible name.

Obvious scumlord, lynch immediately please.
Also, because you (Nachomamma) are voting for Lovesick already. Hunting two lurkers at once is okay, right?
