Game...dying...even more than it was. So here's a quick review of CB:
Early Day 1: Fairly useless bastion of sarcasm. Very little actual input.

I like the Greasy Spot wagon. His recent posts have been extremely poor play, at best, and his claim to have caught every single scum in the game is... laughable. If he wasn't at L-1 I'd vote him. FOS: Greasy Spot
This post is a big part of the case. He says he likes the wagon, says GS has been playing horribly and his play is terrible, his roleclaim is atrocious... yet, no hammer. Why not hammer the obvscum?
Shaka, you're assuming that the scum has actually committed scumtells in the thread. If they've been playing pretty well, or if there are scummier players in the game, trying to push for their lynch is likely to end up with you claiming anyway.
Sounds like cocky scum, not believing he's made any scumtells and gloating about it.
Having said that, why are people pushing for a cop claim when a) we don't even know if one is in the game, and b) they are more likely to have gotten an innocent result than a guilty one? I realise you're speaking in hypotheticals, but goddamn does it look like you're assuming a guilty result.
Afraid of a cop claim. Not neccessarily a scumtell though.
Things changed, angel. Greasy became a little to scummy for me to feel comfortable dismissing him on the grounds of his fast wagon; after all, it is in no way impossible for a town-driven wagon to grow like that. It's bad play, but not at all implausible.
This is in response to a post where amouse basically hits the nail on the head in terms of CB's flip-flop on GS. The wording of this post bothers me a lot, but I can't really explain it. Trying to sound like the cautious townie, maybe? Not sure. Cautiousness seems odd coming from Captain Sarcastic.
Hindsight has shown that the wagon was in fact a good one, but that doesn't mean allowing it to grow as fast as it did was good for the town with the information we had at the time. Unless they were bussing him (another possibility), it was bad play.
Lynching scum is good play. I don't care how it gets done.
A fe posts of sarcasm and bandwagon vote on peg follow this...
Then,
I am in favour of the CFK wagon - but don't you think we should be at least giving whoever it is that replaces him a chance to defend themselves?
It won't "fizzle", it will just be on hold for a couple of days. I don't see why you're so keen on quicklynching him, TBH.
If attempting to avoid a quicklynch on someone who isn't currently able to defend themselves or offer the town any more information that could prove useful if they cardflip townie is being difficult, sign me up.
Extremely cautious of CFK wagon, probably because he knew CFK was town.
Oh, hi there. Vote: Cephrir
OGML already said he needed another readthrough, and that his vote was basically off the top of his head.
Votes me for no apparent reason, basically 100% unadulterated OMGUS, as his reasons are still bad.
The only reason I laid the hammer on was because his replacement was taking aaages and I didn't want to risk anyone else flaking.
Thinks lynching CFK was a bad idea. This game would probably have stayed in D2 forever if we didn't do that.
I'm still happy with my Cephrir vote. If he's scum, hooray. If he really is a miller, well, that's a distraction/source of confusion the town most certainly does not need gone.
Besides, I really don't believe he's anything other than scum.
Advocates lynching me even if I am town, but thinks I'm scum, still with no reasons.
Let me put it this way: he's the scummiest player at this point in the game. Obviously I'd prefer him to be scum than a Miller, but if he does turn out to be one it wouldn't be any real loss to the town (both in terms of the confusion regarding his true alignment and his scummy play).
Lynching any protown player is still bad, been through this already. Decides that I have had "scummy play", but nonetheless fails to provide any examples.
We obviously have very different stances on how to deal with Millers. I find them to be nuisances that do nothing but distract the town. When you factor in Ceph's play (which surely you must admit isn't the towniest ever)... I think the risk is worth it.
Also, I never said that a Cephtown lynch wouldn't be bad. Stop putting words in my mouth, thanks.
Millers can scumhunt, thanks. And you basically did say that lynching me as town would only eliminate a "distraction" (I see no reason why I'm a distraction btw; it's just that the Cop (who probablybecause I do) already knows what an investigation on me would yield.
I smell failure to read. See my posts near the beginning of the day, as well as near yesterday's end.
This is his only response to my saying he has no case on me; as I have pointed out, said posts do not exist.
Then he finally decides that he's voting me over yesterday's CFK lynch, even though he finds OGML just as scummy. Why did he not mention this was his reason sooner? Good question.
And, in his most recent post, he shies away from meta-ing the mod, which, coincidentally, provides some evidence in my favor. Just gotta keep the imaginary case alive, eh, CB?
