Open 160 Bird 7P (GAME!) - before 823

[muzzz]

@Hohum: I still like to assume BC is smarter than the average lobotomy subject. Why do you care, anyway? It makes me think he's more likely to be scum.

---

I think I've gotten most of what's been said.

Vote: Egruntz

[hohum]

L-2. More egrunts votes please.

[yabbaguy]

Apologies for cop-direction. I guess I had everything a little too planned out.

It's anti-town for a VT to claim doc. What if we had done the counterclaim? Then we would have an outed doc but no scum outed. That's a town disaster.

Charnel, I'd rather see you pick reasons than bluntly state "You're all being mean to him"

You're saying I should've hopped on a BC wagon to lynch?

spell it "newbie". just looks cleaner

Charnel, I've had shifty opinions on BC, first thinking he was being abrasive, but then his docclaim made me much more suspect. A variety of circumstances has kept me off of actually voting BC, and I will have to look back and see what you're referring to, but I am not scumbuddies with BC, and he has done scummy things all game.

It's doubt that's kept my vote off, IIRC. Either that or unawareness of vote counts. Not scumbuddy inhibitions.

There was little wrong with this claim, and Egruntz did not need to make himself scummy by reclaiming.

Now hang on... if he's scum, the deed's done. Either he would've stuck with it and gotten counterclaimed, or he backtracks and looks scummy for it.

This could be scum passing advice under the table. "Egruntz, stop making yourself look like scum." This and claiming that "It's not fair, you're all picking on BCgruntz!" makes me suspect of a plausible scumpair. Like Baltar said, though, one of you has to flip first to see if that's even possible.

Charnel, I also want to see something, well, not necessarily PBPA quality, but some summary on why you think Baltar is scum. From my vantage, up there with hohum, Baltar is very, very pro-town at present.

@egruntz-252: You could still be scum trying to apologize for your former ego for playing poorly. If you're vanilla, duh, you're going to correct the falseclaim made by the preceding dumbass. However, we never forget that you could be scum backtracking on a scummy mistake made. And Charnel (who I deem scummy as well), has been acting shifty when it comes to the subject of you.

You come into a role which I am extremely suspicious of.

Now, I'd like you to reexamine hohum. Hohum, while he has his anti-town abrasive qualities to him, no matter what I think and say about how belligerent he is, has never been afraid to post (and often twice or thirce in succession), always states his mind, and is totally committed to scumhunting. He is not scum. He tunnel-visions and gets a little too passionate at times, but he's not scum.

@hohum-253:

I just really don't see charnel's flip as being quite as productive as egruntz/BC.

That's very, very true. A little scum manipulation can be a dangerous thing. I'm all for ending the theory debate to avoid manipulation.

Charnel, you're next. For now:

Vote: egruntz

[hohum]

L-1.

Charnel: care to hammer?

[yabbaguy]

L-1.

Didn't I say that?

[egruntz]

You're going to lose two town members in the first set phase. At least wait until the deadline is reached before going through the lynch on me (

which, by the way, is when Light-Kun?

).

[yabbaguy]

There is no deadline, and

I'd prefer it that way.

[hohum]

Plea to emotion

Feel free to self-hammer, scum.

[VP Baltar]

Charnel: You seem to have done an about face in that last post regarding your stance on BC. Did post 266 strike a nerve, or what?

Agreed. Explanation very necessary. I'm ready to hammer pending this response.


Hohum, if you dont' want to elaborate on every player, fine, but you need to list your top three suspects before the day ends. I feel you have been very guarded in some ways with your suspicions and I don't like it.

[hohum]

You'll post the list along with my thoughts in twilight, because there's a good chance I'll be NK'd tonight. The faster you hammer the more likely it is you'll get what you want out of me because I need to do some actual work today instead of stalking this thread.

[hohum]

EBWOP: You'll get the list along with my thoughts...

[yabbaguy]

Oh wait, we already have a deadline:

8) Each day will have a deadline equal to the number of players multiplied times 3. This will be days=3n, where n=number of players.

Day started on July 22nd. Deadline's not for another 16 days.

[VP Baltar]

The faster you hammer the more likely it is you'll get what you want out of me because I need to do some actual work today instead of stalking this thread.

Heh, well talk to Charnel. I want his answer. Don't worry though, if I hammer, I'll time it so you are online at the time and will get your twilight thoughts in.

[hohum]

Why do you need to talk to charnel? Do you seriously believe any answer he gives you isn't going to be skewed by your read on him?

For the love of christ, just drop the fucking hammer.

[VP Baltar]

No.

[VP Baltar]

You know, you are like the most on edge stoner I know.

[hohum]

*sigh*

I give up. You guys can do what ever the hell you want to do.

You want my list of suspects for the scum pair? Here it is, in order from most likely scum (top) to least likely scum (bottom). Yabba: I want you especially to pay attention to this because I think you've done an excellent job rebounding from your earliest mistakes. Be extra careful about baltar.

@Charnel: for the chainsaw defense of BC/egrunts post-replacement.

@Baltar: for your stubborn refusal to go along with ANYTHING the town has done so far. You've been combative every step of the way.

@muzz: my read on you keeps wavering between slightly scum and slightly town.

@octupis: null read

@yabba: you're in fact the only person in this game I have any faith in at the moment.

[VP Baltar]

Was that so hard?

Unvote, Vote: egruntz

Charnel, you still need to answer in twilight.

[hohum]

thank fucking christ.

[VP Baltar]

Praise the lord. Go in peace my son.

[hohum]

You know, you are like the most on edge stoner I know.

If you ever actually met me IRL you wouldn't think that. This is just a game, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be played competitively.

[VP Baltar]

I tease. I tease. I'm actually enjoying playing with aggressive people for a change. Makes the game a hell of a lot more fun.

[hohum]

I'd bust out with the twilight poetry but I already did that once today

[hohum]

How about a song instead?

There is a house on Mafia Hill
They call the Rising Sun!
And it's seen the lynch
of many a poor scum
I know 'cos I was one.

[VP Baltar]

Full scum claim. Got ya, you bastard.
