Open 162--Trendy and Subversive - Over! before 831

[Netopalis]

Guys, if you didn't realize, he just claimed mafia....


Also, CSL, if your claim is true....then you're an idiot. Replace out or whatever, but don't ruin the game for everybody else. Seriously.

[Khamisa]

Well, I'm leaving my vote there, because it's practically confirmed...but I agree with yabbaguy's (?) idea to look for the other one.

[Netopalis]

Ok, sorry, I misread Yabba's post....seems reasonable, just make sure that we lynch him before the deadline.

[yabbaguy]

Would've been a fine tactic to cut discussion if he was actually at L-1, but he just blundered and miscounted.

[Netopalis]

Yabb, with all due respect, I really doubt that he's capable of that strategy. I've played with him twice now, and all of the evidence points to him being an idiot.

[Jahudo]

lol. I believe CSL.

I actually do not support more discussion today, but want to hear the argument of why we should keep looking for the other scum today.

Why I say go to night now:
1. We dont have enforced deadlines in this game.
2. Scum could get a better idea of who active power role is.

[yabbaguy]

I call that accelerating the Day, Jahudo, which is scummy. You're playing the exact same way as CSL-

{cue Netopalis-179}

Never mind.

But nonetheless, trying to curtail discussion when we're not totally sure on the other scum is ridiculous. Your first reason means nothing, and the second one, if it does happen, doesn't outweigh the benefits of scumhunting that we get.

[Netopalis]

Well, as for my stance...I'm not sure that it will do a great deal of good, but I'm more than welcome to keep the day open if you'd like....I'm not sure how we should go about further scumhunting yet, though. I don't think that any of us were supportive of CSL or made any actionable connections with him, since he really was inactive.

[yabbaguy]

@Khelvaster:

Vote count please, and please be more frequent with them in the future.

[Jahudo]

I call that accelerating the Day, Jahudo, which is scummy. You're playing the exact same way as CSL-

We can only lynch one person a day, and days have no time limit, so what is there to do today that can't be done tomorrow? Tomorrow we'll have information from night which will be helpful, today we're all lurkish and need a better reason to contribute. Lynch flip + night info = better reason to contribute.

[Netopalis]

Uh..If you folks want to discuss this day further, I recommend, uh, discussing....Otherwise, I'd be perfectly happy with a hammer. Anyone? Anyone?

[yabbaguy]

We're a pretty fucked up town right now. I honestly am apathetic.

[Albert B. Rampage]

Unvote, vote CSL

Oh well, I liked him.

[Netopalis]

Well, that's that. One down, one to go...

[Albert B. Rampage]

We're a pretty fucked up town right now. I honestly am apathetic.

haha i love it

[Netopalis]

Preserving this for the next day, just in case I'm nightkilled:


I am fairly convinced that some combination of ABR/Cass/Jahudo is scum. ABR for his obvious scummy lack of content, Cass for his odd and infrequent postings which seem to be more of a hindrance than a help and Jahudo...Not really sure why on Jahudo - wording, perhaps? It's hard to say exactly why, but I do get a gut reaction from him. That being said, I find him the least likely candidate....

Also: Just did a quick reread. Unfortunately, due to CSL's inactivity/idiocy, there are no actionable connections between any of the other players and him.

[Albert B. Rampage]

Please kill the annoying Netopalis and shut him up once and for all.

[Khelvaster]

CSL, mafia goon, has been lynched. It's now night 1. I would like all night actions to be in within 48 hours.

[yabbaguy]

Lock thread?

[Albert B. Rampage]

Maybe he doesn't have privileges...don't post.

[Khelvaster]

On day 2, you find that Khamisa has been strangled with a couple of ties. It's odd. He is, however, quite dead.


Khamisa, Townie, has been killed N1.

[yabbaguy]

Khamisa's kill brings up a lot of inferences for me, but I'm spinning in WIFOM logic circles right now thinking about those inferences. I'll be back later.

[Netopalis]

Hmm....That eliminates one lurker suspect. Not really sure why the Mafia chose to kill Khamisa. I can think of a few possible reasons...but it's hard to say without, as Yabb said, delving into WIFOM territory. As I see it, we're pretty much where we were yesterday...

[Albert B. Rampage]

It wasn't me. For me, the more lurkers the better, I can blend in with them seamlessly.

[Jahudo]

Maybe scum was looking for the active power role.

ABR is confirmed townie if no one counters as a nurse/deputy.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to go ahead and FOS: CSL for that...I'm not sure what you were doing, but it seemed very, very odd. If it was an honest mistake, please try to be a bit more aware in the future.

I thought the doubtful tone of this FoS was strange initially, but now I'm using this as evidence for Neto being town. If he was distancing his scumbuddy, it would have been a better strategy to be critical over a small issue that wouldn't likely get CSL lynched. So I don't think this looks like distancing.

CSL's not paying attention to votecounts is indeed a bit strange. He seems to be unaware of the smallness of this setup. I don't think that's a tell either way though.

This has kinda the same vibe as not knowing what to make of CSL. But since she didn't cast any suspicion, I can't say its evidence of not-distancing. She could have been waiting for another place to distance, whereas Neto-scum would have been in that FoS post.

So yabba is my top suspect, as carry over from yesterday, with Cass at a default second.
