@austin: you and gonzaw both bring up good points that certain people have cases made about them and then the thread seems to forget or gloss over them. Regardless of who gets lynched today, I think we really need to remember the other suspects from today and address them tomorrow because you're right, there has not been a lot of discussion about people who I feel are very good lynch options.

Hmm, one quick question guys (please answer):

Are you content with the way this D1 is going? As in, how discussion in general is going, how scumhunting is going, how pressure on players is going, how consolidation is going, etc? How players are part of thread/discussions, etc?

I personally don't like it that much.

You have had a lot of posts I've liked, and we have agreed on a couple things this game that make me feel good about you.

But this post in particular feels weak. You earlier wanted to lynch artanis based on gonzaw's case, with shelvocke as a second choice based on your case and perhaps some of what I brought up. Now you go buddy-mode and say that there are good points being made about "people have cases made about them" that get forgotten, when the "people" at issue are your top and second lynch candidate allegedly.

That seems...very uninvested in your reads?

Meapak why aren't you voting Artanis then?

austin, my main point is that Shevlocke was started to being talked about once D1 started. Yes, by the time I made my Artanis case people didn't really talk about him much, but nobody really did anything else other than wagon on S&B and argue with Vivax.

I don't think my point on Artanis goes well with Shevlocke because of that. Remember the ONLY time someone called Artanis out was Mepaak and me back in the drafting picking phase basically (and maybe Mocsta when he was arguing with him about geripts case).

ObviousOne is another person who is pretty much inactive in this game, compared to his prolific posting in other games.

Not really feeling the case on Artanis at the moment.

I've just read over Sno's filter from the 3 Newbie games he was in. First of all, he posted a shitload more in the first two games he played. He was active, he made good cases and generally played well. He was town in both games.

In his third game he subbed in as scum about 2/3 of the way through. He posted a lot less than his first two games, and got lynched pretty quickly. However as this was a sub-in I wouldn't put too much weight in this. He also still posted a hell of a lot more than he has so far this game.

I'd be almost willing to vote him on this alone, but it could be some RL reasons keeping him from posting.

If I could grill and play at the same time I totally would. I see that gonzaw wants me to draw conclusions from my supplement to his meta case (since he done failed at doing it all proper like) so I guess I'll check Artanis' town games too for myself. I know we played together in Fruity. I'll get back with you after I finish grilling and consuming these ribs.

Don't hate.

Wait deconduo, have you mentioned why you want to kill Shevlocke before? I've skimmed your filter and didn't see anything (I may have missed it though)

Hmm, my Artanis lynch seems to have quite a bit of resistance. Interesting (not to say those resisting are scum though. I have some slight town reads on some resisting it, which makes it even more "interesting").

So let's try something different:

I have the ability to kill someone this D1

So, get to it town.
Who should I kill?

More importantly, for certain players (snoman, etc), convince me why I shouldn't just kill you right now.

I hope EVERYBODY tells me in detail who they want me to kill, why, how that affects their lynch candidate, or if they want me to keep my KP for later and not use it.
This is your chance to get your SCUMREAD KILLED 100%, if you are good at convincing both me and town (but mostly me); so this is your chance to step up your game and actively try to get your scumread killed (no hiding behind "parking your vote" or shit like that)

"But gonzaw, why haven't you killed Artanis yet?"

Because I'm not an idiot. I prefer some discussion on these kind of players. If someone is active or semi-active and I find him suspicious or even as scum, it's more important to see how other people react, see town sentiment on that guy, and at worst be convinced against killing him if he's somehow town, plus creating discussion and the like.
Also apparently people are not convinced by my case. I think killing him D1 without any feedback from town would have been a bad idea in retrospect, even if he flipped scum

I may or may not kill him this D1. I still prefer him for lynch instead.

So snoman, Shevlocke, RO, maybe rayn/VE/Caller/Palmar/Sharrant/etc. Show me this D1 why I shouldn't just kill you right now.
Also of course post who you want killed, or if you don't want me to kill anybody just yet. Failing to do so may result in a little symptom....called being shot/nuked through your head

"But gonzaw, why complain about others vigging someone, if you could kill them yourself?"

Because I'm not an idiot
I want Snoman, etc to make a stance and have a chance to prove to us they are town and scumhunt before just blindly killing them.
I hoped they'd do something by now but that failed. Hopefully this doesn't.

"But gonzaw, why claim now?

I reread the roles and I don't see anything that can "fuck up" with a day KP (other than maybe "Showtime!", but that can fuck us at any time, and (of course), a day vig/Assassin used on me)
Plus I feel there's not much going on. Many people oppose my Artanis case, so that's going nowhere. People are suspicious of some other players, but it just keeps it there, specially if those players are not doing anything else currently or maybe not even show up.
I feel this D1 is kind of stagnated, and I don't like it. I mean there are like 9 different people having votes on them right now, there's no consolidation, both in votes and in thread sentiment. Some people have even parked their vote on some random guys (yamato on Palmar, Sharrant on Keirathi) and they seem to keep it there.
Some people are just coasting through not doing shit and feeling no pressure. I think it may be time to change that.
I tried changing that up with the Artanis case, but it seems it hasn't worked.
Let's see if this changes anything.
