Not really defending you, just wondering why he's taking such a lead when we have nothing to go on. Starting a witch hunt is only going to get innocent people killed me thinks. Also, when did you suggest we start hunting?
If nobody takes a lead when we have nothing to go on, we'll never have anything to go on.
The entire purpose of this is to witch hunt in such a way that we eventually flush the scum.

And just in case people decide to show up, and start trying to take my lack of posts as suspicious, I'll be leaving in a bit for TKD.

How do you witch hunt in way that flushes out the actual scum? I think we need to be a little more deliberate here.
This is a semi-open setup. You will know which roles may appear in the game but not the number. Well, there is at least one vanilla townie. But that's all you know.
When I interpret to mean that there can be more than one Heyoka or Complete Asshole and that there might be multiple roles not filled, am I correct?

Good thing monk isn't a role.

Actually, if many people neglect to post, it's the worst time to lynch lurkers, so why would you suggest it, Myles? Mathematically, if 6 lurk, then, if we assume 100% of the scum are also amongst the lurkers, we're already at a coinflip to get a scum.
Very true. At that point its useless to policy lurkers. Now is the time to get this crap out of the way though. I do think we need some kind of policy to follow since the game is majority Lynch. Let's figure out our options and get the scumhunt on.

Well, Myles, if you have a suggestion for flushing the scum with people not talking until we have something to go on, feel free to elaborate on that plan. Otherwise, I'm going to stick with the established method of getting people talking enough that we either get something to work with, or at least get enough people active to be physically capable of lynching anybody.

I think getting people to talk is a good idea, and if a witch hunt is the only way to that than so be it. And I don't really have a better idea, so witch hunt it is I guess.

Yep

It appears that we have a few late risers, I wonder when they are going to decide to get up and talk. Also I think we should start blaming people in REVERSE alphabetical order as to mix it up a bit and not fall into the regular way of doing things.

I know it's a bit early to try and make a read, however my short list of possible scum is topped by Myles atm. Primarily because it seems like he wants to promote inactivity. It's a loose read but someone had to get this started.

man, if it was all the scum would be banned already.
Hey guys sorry I wasn't here when the game started, I'm not a late riser. I just got off work.
I think it is a great idea to scum-hunt, we should do it with gusto and aplomb however a lurker lynch is always doable since this is turn one and we have the least knowledge that we will have all game since our blues haven't done anything yet and scum hasn't even tried to make a kill. Scum can still hide in the shadows so, if we don't have any better leads a shot into the shadows will give us a chance at least.
I'll be here for the next hour or so and hopefully we can start some real discussion.

I guess you can call trying to be a little more selective than randomly picking people to start accusing is promoting inactivity, but I was trying to be a little more prudent. The game started 2 hours ago so it seems a bit early to start accusing people.

I think Myles is right here, we need to think this through. I'm certainly not opposed to a lurker lynch but if we are going to start targeting a single player it should be for a good reason.
Intact, if you think Myles is scummy you should keep a close eye on him and see how he acts see what he does and build a case.
We as townies need to work together though we have the deductive power of nine smart (I hope) people on our side, we should try to use that power.

I have 3 pages of notes already. And I wrote all of those notes in red ink. Only people who are guilty have note pages written about them in red ink. He must be scum!

Im not claiming he is scum, I'm simply pointing out the observations I've made- And I felt like the ball had to get rolling.

Oh, well in that case lets lynch him!+ Show Spoiler +
What do your notes say (assuming you weren't joking about them) what are your reads? Your thoughts and ideas. I know only a few of us are posting right now but that makes it easier, just assume that there still could be a scum among the posters and start hunting. No one needs to succeed at scum hunting yet, it is after all turn one, but we should start looking for any fishy behaviours. I'm looking but not finding anything yet, everyone seems to be pretty normally playing out day one. I'm curious about how fast Intact jumped on Myles but that doesn't mean either of them are scum, just people who I will keep an eye on.
Intact: I think you are right to get the ball rolling but I think it should be in a more general sense right now, if you are town you should cast a wide net and not tunnel so quickly. Though you may be right of course, so don't lose sight of the people you get red vibes from.

My username hates any type of random or chaotic thinking. When we lynch someone it must be for a thought out reason. Only a logical well thought out reasoning will gain my vote.

What about you, monk? The color of the hammer next to your name trying to tell us something? Hell, if nothing else, and we end up with nobody really screaming "scum", we should totally ban the pants off of the banling, just for irony.
Although, Anacletus, I am going to keep that loose eye on you, and one on Myles. I'm not entirely sure why, but something about your posting is setting off... well, not really alarms, more like having a cell phone on vibrate, but leaving it in your other pair of pants, so that mild buzzing sound.

Seems pretty scummy. Telling people to lynch a somewhat arbitrary player when I haven't done anything to arouse suspicion. O_O
