Official End-Of-Day Vote Count
:

Locus (4, Locus, Talitha, Myopia, KingEnigma)

Not Voting: inHimshallibe

Indeed, Locus, despite his valiant, only-slighly-over-the-top defense, was indeed scum.

Get those night choices in! Everyone's active, so we should be able to start within 24 hours, I'd say.

In a surprising twist, Talitha (cop) wakes up dead. Or rather, as it goes, doesn't wake up dead. With 3 alive, it'll take
2 to lynch.

I'm going to have a final re-read of the thread before I cast my vote.

Ok. Suprisingly enough my final read did not provide any iron-clad, perfectly wrapped evidence of scumness.

All I have is inference. But I think Im as confident as Im going to get at this point without anyone making an obvious error.

Inhim says in post 256 that ke is scum because:
- i am unlikely to be scum because of my bingle with locus (agree with this obviously)
- locus never commented on kieron's play but some minor corrections on day 1
- (to a lesser extent) enigmas posting "oddities" in posts 165 and 167.

As to the second point. Locus commented even less on inhim's play than kieron's. Inhim if you are innocent this was not a good example. It seems to me like you were trying to call attention away from that fact. By your own logic here this aspect makes you more scummy than ke. That this seems to be the most obvious "mistake" you have made is a credit to your play.

As to the third point, ive looked again at enigma's posts. They are just not ringing any scummy bells to me. Polite play from a replacement who doesnt want to antagonise anyone yes. A little bit hesitant yes. Scummy no.

So that leaves us with the first point only which doesnt help at all in determining which one of you is scum.

Added to the above enigma seems to have reasonable justification for lurking this game. If he was incidentally scum at the same time well then ive erred.

For the reasons stated:

Nope.

I'm a pacifist. I bet you cant stand having to wait for the mod to come back and tell you what just happened can you?


Me either.

Without a chance to speak in defense, inHim has been lynched. He was, as Talitha found out, last night....

...oh, fine, fine, inHim was town.

Night falls, and there is no night kill. Myopia pieces it together that night, and wakes up to the devilish smiling face of KingEnigma.

Uh oh.

Grrr... all i had on you was that "i always thought you were innocent" comment. It nagged me enough to do a re-read but it just wasnt enough by itself and inhim just didnt seem very convincing with his rebutal.

Did you guys even have time to develop a strategy? Id be interested in knowing what it was.

Hmm.. guess locus's defence of kieron so early on day 1 was more straightforward than I ever would have believed :D I took it as another sign that enigma was innocent! Guess I have quite a bit to learn :oops:

Congratulations scum. Sorry town. Cheers to all the players particularly talitha without whom I would most likely have been lynched day 1. I think you remained supremely even tempered in the circumstances. Guess if I had of hung dmi would have been in my position and most likely picked inhim as well but it was nice to have survived to the end.

Locus your final posts were quite amusing but I think even someone who thought you were innocent would have bumped you off at that point.

And many thanks to the mod. I hope you had as much fun as your players

Myopia, you have the makings of a great mafia player and I really enjoyed being in this game with you. I really hope you play more games here. I'm glad that I managed to pick your alignment, my one consolation from this game. :)

I think the scum played exceptionally well in this game. It's a pity that circumstances conspired so that King E/keiron was kind of disregarded.

Locus, I'm glad you were a scumbag because otherwise I'd be forced to take all your comments to heart ;)

And my apologies to inHim.

Good game all. Well done scum.

I agree. Well played, scum. At the same time, though, well-played town. (But obviously, weller-played, scum. :))

Good game, all.

Hey newbies, note that this was just a "good game." The
great
games are the ones where my side wins. Really, it's all in my mafia handbook.

That's OK, Myopia. I kind of fell into my own hole. Good game, scum.
