A Roccisi Winter - Game Over

[RichardGHP]

Vote: charter

Judging by the last few pages, he is acting quite aggressively in a way that I can't see benefiting the town. From what I've seen, he hasn't made either a decent attemp at defending himself nor an attempt to scum-hunt.

Preview Edit: I agree with points b, c, d and e of Cobalt's post.

This puts charter at L-1, correct?

[RichardGHP]

Well, if you've given up I don't think any explanation is necessary. Part of me thinks you may be joking... but until I hear a good defense,

vote: Neopi

.

[RichardGHP]

unvote vote: tubby

You do know that VT is one of the most common scum-claims, right? Yeah. If you really wanted to claim to defend youself, you should've claimed a PR or something else pro-town.

[RichardGHP]

Prod received.

[RichardGHP]

Planning on posting actual stuff soon or what?

Not really, no. At least not yet.

@Richard:

Why not?

1. Becuase I haven't had a chance to analyse recent events
2. Because lurking is the way I play the game, at least on Day 1.

Let's do richard first, Mr. I Can't Be Bothered To Not Lurk

Excuse me? It's a purely strategic move. I see nothing wrong with it.

[RichardGHP]

Richard is next, though, Mr Lurking Is A Strategic Choice.

This is my third game and I am still confused as to why lurking is a definite scum-tell.

As lurking scum, you should be exquisitely aware of all the advantages you are deriving from keeping a low profile. Unfortunately, we're on to that strategy of not implicating oneself while letting other players take the risks, and associated flak for wrong decisions.

For this you will die today.

I hope you understand now.

That's assuming that I am actually scum, and you are assuming the worst. The strategy I use (lurking) is not exclusively to let others take the risks, but to allow me to look things over in my head and in RL days to come, offer my thoughts. Yes, in part, I lurk to avoid suspicion - because I want to stay in the game, even though I win with whatever team I'm on, even if I die. It's a habit I've picked up over my few games.

i throw the bs flsgg if you are lurking you are only serving yourself and not the town. thus you fail. thus you must be lynched.

But it's only Days 1/2 and maybe three that I plan to lurk. After that, you might be able to expect more out of me.

Think about this: I might lurk partly to avoid suspicion, so that I don't get lynched, so that the town doesn't lose one of their own and thus is one vote stronger? Does that make sense?

I don't see how lynching a lurker is good, at least on D2.
