Neh, I don't think MoS has even signed up for a game in awhile. Has he played one this year? I've just seen him modding as of late.

So you mean players like the shaft/elvis hydra that vig scum RB day 1, push the lynch of the scum Doctor immediately after and leave a roadmap to certain victory before getting killed by the last remaining mafia member?
You talking about the same hydra that also vidged town me when I was sick? I said that in thread and said that was part of why I was inactive. Other part is you
know
for a fact shaft.ed that I lurk whenever I am bored. And I am prone to boredum when I don't have a descent night action to plan. When Muerte claimed and my hungarian role became useless I lurked didn't I? I loves IRC so much cause every role has an action so me not bored. You said it yourself to xyl that just making me think I have a great night action is enough to keep me active. Of all people you should have known I was obv bored vanilla. But don't worry I don't really hold it against you. I've lost count on how many times I've been vidged in the past and since you guys are my friends its cool. Who decided to shoot us anyway? You or Elvis?

Aside from that though you did play pretty well though. If you'd read my posts in that game you'd see one of my last ones pointed at the last scum being among, Ortohoops, RW, Jscope. So you weren't the only ones on the right path. Town lost that game because they went after lurkers when we were gone. Not a single dead lurker was scum or even remotely connected to scum. People need to hunt scum before they hunt lurkers. That's why we lost there.

shaft.ed wrote:PF, it was really simple, the players who were voting for Yos were all cleared as town. Thus it was our job as vidge to make the town move more quickly through the players that were not voting for Yos. You were chosen by both myself and elvis independently for the kill. Looking back on it, we might have been better off picking a player that was less likely to be lynched but we really didn't think the town would have trouble lynching the remaining fish in the barrel.

And since when to you not think a vidge taking out a scummy-appearing townie is a good thing?
That's just it. Only reason people thought I was scum was I was not posting during the Yos lynch. There was no other reason; You said that was only reason in thread. And you know I lurk or don't post when I am bored. You've seen me do it and you know I am active otherwise considering my love of power roles. I'm disputing your reasons for shooting me. Whether I was sick or not the obv conclusion someone like you should of gotten from your history with me was PF = Vanilla town. I guess I'll save more of this just in case for later though...

I don't get your comment ectomancer but I do see some of the main point of this thread. More deserving players should be nomed and win. Self noming victory or campaigning for a nom should probably be avoided now.

:?
wait didn't Adel campaign for nom and then get a best scum award for "mature" mafia...

OH, RW, JS = shorter order less town casualty. You didn't have to go after the lurkers (Zaph, ZMD, me, Hogfather). Don't trim the fat, trim the threat. None of them were scum and you should have known I was town. Skip the lurkers and shoot who has reason for being scum (
you, Zaph, Zmd,
J-Scope). I don't know if elvis knows pf lurks only when bored, but you do. You've seen me do it. Vidge scum over lurkers always. That's all I'm saying. You did play awesome I won't dispute that. Too bad that wasn't enough. I'll say more to everybody in general later though since this is becoming a bit of a thread jack.

Ok let's get this back on topic a little. Mos, you seen any games/players that fit the bill here?

Also which is better,
Catch one perfectly and get night killed
or
Point at a bunch of scum logically then get mafia killed
or
Vidge a bunch then get shot yourself

But OH and RW were already cleared as town. I wasn't clearing lurkers I was clearing unconfirmed town. And I've never seen you lurk when bored. My only in game interaction with you was mod'ing Monty Python where you posted more than anyone in the game (thanks for that btw :D )
I posted more in that game than any other cause I was laughing and very amused. Loved the role and loved the game. When Muerte fake claimed something that fucked my role, I was no longer amused I was practically heart broken. And I started to post less as a result. I was trying to say you've seen and talked about both extremes cause I was both there though I was obv very entertained for most of that game. You need to make a sequel to it. Instead of flying circus, run "And Now for something completly different". That would be super awesome!
