I think the HP check is pretty valueable. Like I was saying in PM's, it can have DT like functionality. Also, at the time of this argument, house KP was unknown. Dandel as scum could have presumably killed some awesome townie with our KP. Part of this discussion is how a scum playing for long game (i.e. not Dandel) would think long and hard before abusing house KP, as it could incriminate him. I saw it as much less likely that, if scum, Chrom would be so overt with the scum agenda. He would not take the 'scorched earth' route as I put it to Chrom.
Yes. Dandel's town meta is good enough that he can even misrepresent and lie and I still think he is town now. Have you seen his scum games?

Oh I missed the last bit Oberyn.
In our PMs he was engaged, openly communicating, and it was clear to me that he REALLY believed that he was the best choice for our house. Like, it's Dandel, so he is kinda trolly as both alignments, but he obviously cared about what was going on...enough to fight me tooth and nail for what he thought was right.

More...iamp pointed this out. He is not shying away from this clusterfuck. He is right in the thick of it.
In NWM which I co-hosted, he strategically lurked, and avoided the limelight when the heat was on. He was also similarly disengaged as scum in Les Mis.

A player deciding to sabotage the ability because he knows he is going to get caught can also have DT like functionality. I still don't see why you think Dandel outing himself as scum would be a reason not to elect him.

Because if he is going to out himself independent of any other action in the game, then blowing the check to incriminate him is a waste. He is going to incriminate himself anyway.
|
Put another way, I didn't want to give him the opportunity to take the ability away from us if he is scum. Basically, if Dandel is scum, we would know, and we can identify him without giving him the chance to do any lord ability related damage.

sorry for triple post
what do you think of Clarity, Oberyn?

fuck it

It seemed naive at best, and fishing for others' role names at worst. Since then this has been clarified and I suspect it was just a naive gaff to gain our trust.
However, in public he seems overly paranoid about it; possibly because both Sharrant and I were immediately suspicious of his motives. He claimed to have never heard of evil magician assassins who use name magic to murder you in your sleep. The whole discussion played out in a way that I believe him.
Now, this just plain doesn't jibe with the suspicions s0lstice is trying to mount against him.
DI, Koshi, Chromatically: does s0lstice's explanation do justice to what happened in the confines of Storm's End?
What is happening here Acro? I literally have no idea what you think of johnny. Clarify please.

herp derp iamp is scum because he wants to kill scum There definitely could be scum in lurkers but it's scummy to just not bother looking at active players because you have decided the entire scum team is lurking. So anything to say piece. You seemed to have not read the thread from are pms.

nor have you contributed anything at all recently?

thats my case on you.
you do nothing

iamp, do you have any notion of when grack decided he didnt want to vote you and said as much to gumshoe and xatalos? did he actually push for this, and did it happen with enough time for anything to actually come of it?

actually nvm. this was talked about earlier i just found it.

Hi! I'm finally back in thread! I'll be here with the sole purpose of catching up so you can count on some substantive posts soon. I only got to the 20s while I was at school/work reading on my phone.
Since rayn has already taken the liberty of addressing our house members, I won't bother to discuss that. As I continue reading, I would like to direct attention to Afrocales' first post. If anyone is around, please analyze it and tell me what you think of it. I'd like to bounce some ideas off of people about what it means.

Going to hospital post when have internet there.

This is so scummy man. How about you analyze it, tell us what you think, and then bounce ideas around? Why are you jumping in on this Acro wagon without anything substantive? Seems to me you're soft-pushing an acro lynch without committing yourself.

speaking of you risen have you reconsidered any of your bad reads yet?

Not really. Just got back from da beech, read through the posts that have been made since I've been gone, and responded to FT. Now I'm going to take a bath, watch some House of Cards, and go to sleep. I'll be back tomorrow morning.
