I shall join VE on this. My gut supa stronk.
Last post before I go out. DON'T HIDE YE IRISH SPIRIT Mind explaining your vote? I think that right now you guys are jumping on an easy bandwagon. johnnywup is a new player and this is his first game. Newbie mafias are more likely to lurk and be wishy washy with their post as you say. But he did take a stance that he thought jackal was town, which means that he is not avoiding the issue at all.
It's interesting that you should say that Nemisis.
Let's explore that line of thinking. Saying that you think someone is town, only to clarify twice that it's not based on any concrete evidence and is likely to change is absolutely not taking a stance...he backed off his read the very moment it was questioned.
Secondly, why would scum be likely to 'avoid the issue' of someone being town or not? They know they're RIGHT! Scum love dishing out town reads sir! "Avoiding" is more behavior I'd expect when asking a scum about his scummates - like, if Jackal were scum, I'd say he was "avoiding" the issue of johnnywup being scum...but since I think he's town, I'm attributing it to townie reservation rather than scummy avoidance.
What's the difference you might be asking? Well, simply put, johnnywup was "so bold" as to call Jackal town, while Jackal said no such thing of johnnywup.

I think we got a winner here guys. Ready, set, VOTE! While I certainly dislike what I've seen of him so far, I hesitated to add a vote to my post on him, simply because I'm not sure if he's posting that way because he's a brand new townie, or if there is a scum motive to his posts. I don't think it's sensible to call for a bandwagon on him THIS early in the game, give it some time (we have practically the whole day left). If nothing much has changed when it comes to lynch time, sure, I'm totally up for lynching fuck out of him. No need to rush into things though, let's use all this time we've got!
We're able to switch our vote. Right now, I think johnnywup is our best shot of hitting scum, so there's no reason to dance around the issue. If you think he's scum, you should be voting for him. I'm certainly not above changing my vote to a better candidate should one arise, but considering his posting so far, that's not likely as far as I'm concerned.
But yeah, take time if you need it. I don't. I wanna lynch that dude.

Yet you seem to know enough to immediately backpedal on a read because "then you'd be a prime lynch candidate". Why is that again, exactly?
|
I'm asking why you'd be considered 'a prime lynch candidate'...you seem to have a lot of inherant guilt that's bubbling forth just in our little interaction...I can't wait to see what the case on you will be tomorrow.
And with that town, I'm off for to celebrate Drinking Day. Adieu.

Some of the best moves I've seen scum make have been by newer players in their first scum game, don't tell me what his scummates will let him do.
Go read XLVIII, Toadesstern, being one of the resident newer player scum members on the team, fake-claimed Doctor and introduced enough doubt into the town to help power through 2 no-lynches before we threw it all in at the end. This was after being advised against doing such a thing.
And you're telling me that you believe that not even 3 hours into the game, scum are dictating what their potential "newer players" are typing in-thread? Something tells me you haven't played scum many times here.
At any rate, good luck with defending the indefensible, because as little reason as you think I have to be attacking him, that's exactly as little reason you have for defending him unless you know something I don't. You say he's a new player - I say I'm calling out new player scum mistakes.
Now if you're done, I've got a scum to lynch.

Okay jdub, if you want dis unvote you gots to WORK for it. Tell me who is scum that's not you and give me reason enough to unvote you.
|
I feel you jcarlson, fo rilla.
I'm willing to entertain Nemesis as a secondary candidate, but I'd like to see more of his posting that isn't just defending jdub.
|
Let me ask you this Nemesis. How would you expect a newbScum to react to the pressure I've been applying? You seem to know exactly how a newbTown would react, so surely the converse is true as well, yes?
|
I like that you dodged answering my question Nemesis. I also like how you seem to not have an opinion on his alignment, in spite of expending all this energy attempting (and failing) to discredit my case against him.
|
I like a lot about this little exchange Nemesis. You guys are making it too easy for me.
|
Yeah, I'm kinda on the edge of my seat awaiting thoughts from several players. Come on guys, having 48 hours doesn't mean you have to take all 48 hours to read the thread.

It's a case, and it's in no way a chainsaw defense. A chainsaw defense implies that he was attacking you because you're attacking johnnywup, when it's clear from his posts that he's attacking you because he finds your behavior suspicious.
How do you think we should be spending our time xsk, if not voting for who we find suspicious? You made it clear that at this point in time that you're only really interested in voting for johnnywup to avoid a no-lynch, so is there anyone you'd like to lynch because you think they're scum?
|
Indeed.
##Unvote: johnnywup

So, VE, you don't think it's a chainsaw defense, but you aren't very clear about what you think of Sloosh's case. Is Xsksc looking scummy in your eyes because of it, then? Or are you just defending Sloosh? I'm withholding my thoughts on the case until I see an adequate defense of it.

It's not a change of heart, only a change of vote.
I'm making dinner and lurking, that's what you get from me right now.

Then I'll comment. In a bit. Burgers are a finesse recipe, they will not wait.

Yup. It really is about to be that time. *sigh*

I kinda think VE is town too and I'm expecting him to carry me this game if his reads are half as good as they were in storm mafia. I'm confirmed town masoned with jcarl. Sup. Vote: Jackal
Son, I am disappoint.

You're not confirmed anything, you're just much more likely town than idiot scum.
