If, by then, he hasn't, he deserves what he gets. But a vigi shot, that's easy to sell, could be a disaster if he's just inactive. I'm all for everyone stacking votes on him come daytime, at least until he starts talking. Calgar, would you feel comfortable suggesting a vigi shot on him if we came to a consensus that if it flipped him town, you were next in line for a lynch? | ||

Alright, this sounds suspicious, why do you need to make such a proposition? To me, it's pretty ridiculous that anyone should have to bet their life on a read that still has some chance of being wrong. I hope you're just trying to incite a reaction because this seems like something scum would try to setup. | ||

Any particular reason for you conveniently ignoring it? | ||

The more of us alive earlier, the better. Your suggestion that we wait an entire 3 days to lynch our most prime suspect almost sounds like you're trying to protect a red role or something so that he can use it tonight at least. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. If a vigi doesn't exist, I don't need to dissuade them. They only get one shot, so if perfection is town, it's two things lost, the shot and a townie. I already said I think perfection is an easy read, but he's too easy, and it's easy to see how scum could want the vigi to take that easy shot. Remove the shot from play to prevent a death on a scum, remove a town from play if he's town. He's posted so little that while I think we should pile a pisston of pressure on him, I still find it easy to see him as just utterly inactive. You know how in movies and books there's always cliches about too easy, or too quiet? That's what perfection is. | ||

However, the much more likely scenario is that he actually is mafia and should therefore be taken out as early as possible. If you disagree with all of Mufaa's, Hapa's, and calgar's cases against him, then you should explain where the reasonable doubt comes from, because "it's too easy" doesn't really convince anyone. | ||

So you're using "Me too" as an argument to discredit the utter lack of evidence that I've pointed to? There's not exactly much case to attack on him, which is my whole damn point as to why him living until the end of D2 isn't such a bad thing. A hasty bullet into the easy target could be a bad thing. Yes, it's plausible he's scum, nobody is saying that's not the case. All I'm saying is that we don't have a whole lot to work with, making it a rather hefty gamble. Your refusal to see that sounds terribly like you're paranoid you might be next and want to jump up and down waving your arms to get people's attention and convince them you're townie with your "me too" attitude. | ||

And are you trying to say it's too easy or it's too quiet? Make up your mind. When someone makes few posts, and those few posts are also very scummy, that doesn't somehow give him a probable chance of being innocent. | ||

I'm saying too easy and too quiet are the same general thing here. He's an easy target. "It's quiet, too quiet" *Sudden huge influx of random plot villain A shows up to murder every fucking thing in sight*. When something looks too simple, too easy, or too obvious, sometimes it really is. As was obviously the case with... well, Obvious. But hey, let's go back to your logic. When someone posts next to nothing useful, and it's mostly obviously scummy, lynch that mofo. Who's cool with lynching tube on his own logic? | ||

And by the way, I'm not sure you answered what I pointed out. How would it make sense, if you were town and I was scum, for me to put a huge spotlight on myself to change which person was set to be mislynched? That would be utterly idiotic. | ||

If the few posts he made didn't scream scum, then you would only be saying "too quiet", which doesn't implicate him in anything. How was that the case with Obvious? He made a good number of posts until his summary, and retrospectively some of them were helping town and some just looked plain scummy. Perfection, on the other hand, has only made posts that have not helped town in any way. So now all my posts are both useless and scummy? Mind going into further detail? | ||

Also, you're doing that thing again where you put words in people's mouths. First of all, I didn't even suggest that situation, the issue of you being scummy is separate from the one where perfection should be vig'd. Also, like I said, if that was the situation, then it WOULD make sense if perfection IS scum, because then it wouldn't be a mislynch on him. | ||

I'm very specifically talking about "too easy" and "too quiet" as the movie/book lines they get used as, a cliched precursor to pure trouble. That's as a comparison to the plausible situation I see with someone asking for a vigi shot against perfection. He's such a simple, obvious sort of target that it makes SENSE to suggest it, and if there's a scum motive, it kills two birds with one stone. Obvious was easy to see as scum, and got lynched, and it turned out to have been too easy. Too good to be true. And saying the majority of your posts are useless and easily seen as scummy? Let's go back to yesterday, the posting you did before your sudden change of heart, and a bit of your posting since the attention was lifted off of you. You've been highly active, but not in a serious sort of way. Oh, wait, let me guess, we still don't have enough information, right? Because yesterday, that's why you weren't saying anything useful. Not enough information. Well now you want Iamperfection to die based on NO DAMN INFORMATION. And you're STILL ignoring my question about why your theoretical scum Jingle diverts attention off your theoretical townie you, and onto the (now) confirmed townie Obvious, when I could have just sat back and watched the chaos with MUCH less attention on me. | ||

You suggested it was scummy for ME to dare ask Calgar to say he's 100% sure about Perfection based on practically no info. | ||

As soon as we start following your implications backwards through the thread, they start breaking down. | ||

And your entire reasoning to let him live for now is that he looks too scummy to be scum. Because that's much more reasonable than suggesting that he actually he is scum. Again, I and other users don't see that realistic probability that he's townie that you so easily seem to. Obvious getting lynched was his own misplay, he didn't defend himself at all. Not exactly the town's fault for lynching someone who looked scummy. Your suggesting that perfection's case is the same is pretty out there, when perfection is much easier to see as scum now that Obvious flipped town. It's also very dumb of you to push the idea that I still hold no suspicions against anyone due to a lack of information when it's obvious I'm presenting my own analysis now that things have actually happened. And if perfection's few, scummy posts are NO DAMN INFORMATION to you, what does it take for you to be convinced that someone's scum? | ||
