Mod, can we get prods on Pitstop and hohum?

dejkha, hohum, Khamisa, Pitstop, and Zer0ph34r have all been prodded for 4+ days of inactivity.

[Zer0ph34r]

I'm still here, just observing people's actions.

[ODDin]

And haven't you got anything to say on the subject? What do you think about the arguments on Cephrir? What do you of The Corporation, of me, of AT, of Pitstop?

Lurking isn't going to get us nowhere, you know.

Add me to that list to I guess, just for the hell of it.

[Zer0ph34r]

Lurking indeed isn't getting you anywhere, but it's getting me info to think of for myself.

Cephrir- I think the arguments against him are valid, however, I find it odd that he doesn't seem to be defending himself too much, but that doesn't mean I find it scummy. [Many people think when I say "odd" I mean "scummy".]

The Corporation- Not necessarily scum, but I am suspicious of him, since he has kept his vote for me since the very beginning for the lame reason that he doesn't like that my name has letters and numbers in it. Thus, making me believe that it's just an easy way for him to vote for me without anyone noticing.

AndyTony- I don't think much of his playing and I don't like him [But I won't vote based on that].

Pitstop- The only reason I think he's scum is because I like him. Everyone I hate seems to always be town.

Hewitt- I haven't got much of an opinion of you (as far as this game goes).

[Cephrir]

What would you call what I've been doing for the last 3 pages or so if not defending myself?

The Corporation- Not necessarily scum, but I am suspicious of him, since he has kept his vote for me since the very beginning for the lame reason that he doesn't like that my name has letters and numbers in it. Thus, making me believe that it's just an easy way for him to vote for me without anyone noticing.

Leaving a random vote on is not suspicious, sorry. If this is the biggest suspicion you can come up with I suspect you're scum not used to having to make up suspects.

[Zer0ph34r]

I would call that defending yourself, but not too much.

And you should be sorry. Apology accepted. You'd be right to be suspicious of me too, seeing as how the only time I made it passed day one, I was scum.

[Kdub]

The Corporation- Not necessarily scum, but I am suspicious of him, since he has kept his vote for me since the very beginning for the lame reason that he doesn't like that my name has letters and numbers in it. Thus, making me believe that it's just an easy way for him to vote for me without anyone noticing.

What possible reason would he have for wanting to put a "legitimate" vote on you that early in the game?

[Zer0ph34r]

Exactly my point, Kdub, he doesn't have one.

[The Corporation]

The Corporation- Not necessarily scum, but I am suspicious of him, since he has kept his vote for me since the very beginning for the lame reason that he doesn't like that my name has letters and numbers in it. Thus, making me believe that it's just an easy way for him to vote for me without anyone noticing.

I can assure you up until this post the cohabitation of letters and numbers was the only reason for my vote being on you. Rest assured if you went to lynchville (or even got close) the non-elaboration of my random vote would be very much a point of contention. Everyone would notice.

Post 280 was all bone and no meat so I'm happy leaving my vote on you for a little bit. You are by no means my number one lynch target yet.

[AndyTony]

I would call that defending yourself, but not too much.

And you should be sorry. Apology accepted. You'd be right to be suspicious of me too, seeing as how the only time I made it passed day one, I was scum.

Could you be any more antagonizing/hypocritical/instigating with that post? You're responding to him with the very style you yourself tell us you get emotional about - - why demand a defence from someone who isn't on trial for anything? He's been accused of suspicious behavior, but nobody has raised scum evidence that has stuck - - are you honestly going to say his lack of a needless defense is scummy?

If anything, your hypocrisy, and ability to point out your own meta would suggest you're scum is more tangable than anything pointed at Ceph.

Can you elaborate on your own suspicions and thoughts? Because you've admitted that you're actively lurking, told us that your meta (connected to

this

game) suggests you're scum, and have hypocritically shielded yourself from emotional pain due to other player's sarcasm and instigations, yet don't hesitate to throw them in another player's face (Ceph - with the above post).

I second the motion for prods.

What case do you see on Ceph at present, Zero? You seem to think a defense is necessary, it would be nice to see what he needs it for.

[hohum]

still owe a post. sorry for te absense

[ODDin]

Lurking indeed isn't getting you anywhere, but it's getting me info to think of for myself.

If you're town, then there's no "me" and "others", the town is a single whole and one should try to do the best for the town's sake. Lurking as town is a bad tactic, pure and simple (barring perhaps some special power roles, but the ones in this game don't qualify). Only ones who actually benefit from lurking - of themselves and of others - are scum.
So, where exactly are you going with this? Are you going to shock and amaze us with some groundbreaking info that you got by way of lurking anytime soon?

AndyTony- I don't think much of his playing and I don't like him [But I won't vote based on that].

Why don't you like him?

Pitstop- The only reason I think he's scum is because I like him. Everyone I hate seems to always be town.

Why do you like him?

[Kdub]

Exactly my point, Kdub, he doesn't have one.

I think you misinterpreted my question (or maybe I misinterpreted your initial point). Your claim was that Corporation didn't remove his vote on you from the RVS so that he could vote for you without anyone noticing, correct? My question is, why would he want to do that? In other words, what do you think his true motivation is for wanting to keep his vote on you even now? If you don't think there is a reason, then your claim seems just to be idle speculation and doesn't really say much.

[Zer0ph34r]

I don't like AndyTony because I just don't.
I like Pitstop, because he has not spoken to me.

Kdub, my thought as to why he kept his vote is because he's seen my previous gameplay and doesn't want me in the game and he thought people would in time dislike and vote for me.

[Cephrir]

Or alternatively, people don't do things like that because it's stupid.

[AndyTony]

And it's also nobody's place to say what his state of mind was - - you don't know what he was thinking, and I'll have to look back to see if anyone actually said "I don't want Zero in this game" or if it's another inference.

Your active lurking doesn't seem to have brought you anything useful, Zero

ps - your like/dislike explanations : I can only hope you elaborate/have better reasoning in your actual cases to come

[Khamisa]

Nothing much new, except for that Zer0's "observing reactions" is long past done.

[Cephrir]

...Then what are you doing exactly? Not observing?

[ODDin]

I don't like AndyTony because I just don't.
I like Pitstop, because he has not spoken to me.

Wow.
Also, you forgot to say what you think of me. But seeing your other opinions, I doubt it be anything informative.

Khamisa - you still haven't said what you think about the cases on Cephrir or Pitstop. Maybe there's nothing much new, but it's not like you did something useful - or did anything, really - when there was something new.

I'm really, really troubled with Zer0 and Khamisa right now. They are both lurking in plain sight and being horribly counterproductive. Only thing I can say in their favour is that this seems to be how the play generally.

[The Corporation]

Zer0ph34r is either playing an absolutely masterful scum game or is the most clueless townie of all time. Surely scum would never say something like that... or are we supposed to think that.

Brain explosion.

[Zer0ph34r]

I'm not scum you would be wise to believe me.

[hewitt]

I'm not scum you would be wise to believe me.

It would be so much easier to believe you if you actually gave reasonings behind your statements.

[Khamisa]

...Then what are you doing exactly? Not observing?

I mean that that shouldn't be all he's doing. With 12 pages, he should have observed a lot of reactions now, so he should be asking some questions.

[Zer0ph34r]

Reason: Because I don't lie.
