vote seacore


I don't know why he is even opening up any sort of discussion of who might or might not have roles at this point.

Seacore, the people who probably got roles are not more or less likely to me town, so you should just play the game normally and question them if the deserve it. Staying away from them doesn't make that much sense. It's like giving them a free pass.

RANDOM death doesn't really help town

Vigging lurkers or players who are generally thought scummy help town because even if they're town the town doesn't have to waste time lynching them (and hopefully they're scum).

I support Vi's line of thought though. Irresponsible vigging suggests a scum vig.

I didn't see it in the rules either if scum can daytalk, but I have been in games before where DGB assumes the scum can daytalk whether she has reason to or not. She likes to tell people to go back to their QT, among other things. I'm thinking of the famed "lynch all lurkers" game, and perhaps others.

Oh, crazy monkey wagon just happened last page. That was easy to find.

Reasons seem to include "I don't think she's town" and "I want to be on a wagon."

Most of the people on my wagon have been flippety flopping their vote around multiple times per page. Some of them appear to be scum hunting, although they are all over the place. Dram and BC are the worst of the crazy monkeys. However, cobalt is scum.

unvote; vote cobalt

Explain.
Repeated attempts to convince us random vigging helps town.

While the numbers may suggest that vigging is more likely to hit scum than a scum kill (since they aren't aiming at themselves)...

Vigging still should not be done "randomly"

That is just setting up the vig so he can shoot at ANYONE and not have to have a good reason. ie... scum vig can shoot at people who look town and just say "lol random kills r good fur town lol."

Faraday wrote: He's arguing random kills help town. He doesn't suggest the vig SHOULD kill randomly anywhere. Obviously the inference is that if a random vig will help then a non random kill can help even further.
He only ever talks about random kills being good for the town. He does not say "if random kills are good, non random is better."

He is planting the seed that ANY vig kill is acceptable. If any vig kill is good, then we don't challenge the vig if he makes a stupid kill, since random vigging is good for town.

This is EXACTLY how you position the town to accept BS vig kills.

If I tried to guess who are the scum on my wagon though, I would say that Faraday, BC, Chamber(?) are more likely scumbags, and that cobalt is obv.

Seacore wrote:Elvis, who is saying the Vig would claim after a kill, whether they hit a scum or not? So why is "accepting it" even a thing?

I'm not even sure the rules suggest that we'd know the difference between a scum kill, a SK kill and a Vig kill.
I don't know what the flavor will be like, but I assume at some point the vig will claim targets. At that point we would discuss whether these seemed reasonable or not. I think cobalt is setting us up to accept any targets, which decreases our ability to decide the vig's allignment.

Hey

Guess what, nimrods? I am the cop.

This entire wagon smells of scum wagoning somebody who was high in the draft pick.

If there was a reason for my wagon, I wouldn't care, and I wouldn't think there was some ulterior motive.

But running me up to claim based on GUT? There is something wrong there.

It's probably safe to assume that Elvis, Vi and Chamber got one as well, although obviously less than certain.
I'm not going to pick any of them for my RVS because maybe they can be uber helpful town.
Oh what ever happened to this line of thinking which Mr. Seacore defended?

Notice how he put me L-1/L-2 (simulpost madness)

He was clearly mindful of me being high in the draft, clearly against wagoning these early draft pickers in his first post, but he took the chance to make me claim.
