[Cobalt]

Cobalt, Town Watcher, has been shot.

Alas, what an artist the world loses in me.

[Ellibereth]

Vote: Soc

Fos: Ray, Pom, Wolf

I still get a weird feeling from farside's posts. Less so from Devo now.

[Ellibereth]

Actually:

Unvote Soc, Vote Pom

FoS: Soc

[Jack]

vote:wolf

Don't have more to say than I've said.

[Ellibereth]

I have a weird reason that has absolutely no reason to do with anything to do with this game that I can't say that I think Soc is town right now.

^^^ I somehow missed this post.

Unvote Pom, Vote Wolf

[Socrates]

vote: Pomegranate

Fos: TonyMontana

smoldering look: Hoopla

[Ellibereth]

Scumteam is Pom, Wolf, Ray, Lurker, One of my messed up town reads.

[Socrates]

8 votes in a little over 1 page? The wagon is an apathy driven lurker lynch? We are less than 24 hours from deadline?

FeFiFoFum is going to flip town. Wheee!

This feels fake to me. It's like a statement of disapproval, but it's only made when it's certain the wagon is going to go through, which makes it read like he's fishing for town credit for being anti-Fefi wagon.

I also think scum are more likely to make these sort of declarations prior to a lynch, because they can orchestrate their stance on the situation accordingly, due to knowledge of what the flip will be. Why would a naive townsperson make such a grand statement? It's an unnecessary risk - why risk Fefi being scum, as it incriminates you. But then if he flips town, you don't get that much credit anyway, so why risk it?

Uh, because I believed it? That many votes in that little time for that kind of reasoning never actually results in a dead scumbag.

Also note that Bouncy.Bouncy had more votes than FeFi did when people started pileing up on FeFi and is also guilty of pretty much anything you could argue that FeFi was and it it shouldn't be hard to connect the dots.

I might be open to a bouncy lynch just based on that occurance alone.

[Fate]

Looking forward to Pom's future contributions. Same goes for Ray Frost, Porkens, etc.

For now,

Vote: bouncy.bouncy

Don't have much of a case on wolf, hasn't posted a whole lot.

[StrangerCoug]

Vote: Socrates

Do I need to repeat it?

[Fate]

Vote: Socrates

Do I need to repeat it?

No you need to add to it. I know one other, Jack I think, said "O RLY? You have a case on Socrates?" along with me when you first brought it up.

It's still weak.

FOS: StrangerCoug

Also NK speculation (lulz): Top two slots might get protection. Go down a little further, bouncy may be scum, ok Cobalt. Someone vigged Dramonic, who was looking scummy D1.

[RayFrost]

Hmmmm...

case on me is the lack of activity?

Sorry, too busy to defend myself from that.

[StrangerCoug]

Vote: Socrates

Do I need to repeat it?

No you need to add to it. I know one other, Jack I think, said "O RLY? You have a case on Socrates?" along with me when you first brought it up.

It's still weak.

FOS: StrangerCoug

Jack made no reference to my Socrates case that I can find in the timeframe I think you're talking about. The only person other than you that mentioned anything about the Jack post between my saying "let me get it" and "here it is" is DocPotter, who, although clearly interested in it, did not imply that I was going to post a bad case. You interpreted "the case I can more easily support" as "the easy case"; understandable, but in my opinion two different things.

[Porkens]

I'm very behind in this game. Hopefully I'll have a chance to catch up tonight.

Vote: Pom

Promising a reread twice in a row.

[Pomegranate]

IIRC, they were only a day or two apart.

[Ellibereth]

Socrates is extremely likely town guys. Trust me.

[Pomegranate]

Socrates is extremely likely town guys. Trust me.

Um, don't do anything stupid...

I'm dead serious.

Can someone do me a wonderful favor and find out everyone that had at some point voted Soc yesterday? There's probably scum in there.

[wolframnhart]

vote bouncy

Says he is not much of a Day 1 poster, yet his original vote against Fate was because he thought Fate:

I voted for you because you said something that I don't think any townie with a brain would say.

Yes he never continued to push a case against Fate, regardless of his day 1 posting constriction or whatever you want to call it. Didn't really get his vote against 1fif, who he had never mentioned before the so called "distancing" from Cobalt.

[Ellibereth]

Bouncy you were nommed for a scummy for replacing into a game day 1 before, admittedly near the end, but you certainly had a nice big post for the 15 or so pages of that game, how come you've given us nothing this game. Like nothing at all. 6/7 posts and they've all been worthless.

Yeah I am pretty much worthless D1. I've been reading but I've never seen scum lynched D1 so I don't post much unless something seems wrong (my Fate vote) or somebody makes a really good case. I could try to explain my usual posting strategy to you a little better but idk if that would do anything for anybody.

I made a "big" post on D1 of my newbie game because I was scum and I was setting up the bus that I eventually carried out through the remainder of the game. Most of the stuff I put in that post was bullshit that I passed off as scumhunting.

^^^ Bouncytown made this post.

[Pomegranate]

I'm not saying in the slightest that you're not serious. I'll try for the favor.

[Pomegranate]

StrangerCoug and Hoopla have voted Socrates, if I'm not mistaken.

[Ellibereth]

Nevermind me, I'm full of shit. I just realized I screwed something up. >.<
Socrates is still no longer amazingly confirmed town until further notice. Carry on.
