Mini 942: Gonzo Mafia - Game Over!

[VP Baltar]

The crank was taking hold, which caused me to think rapidly in odd mathematical terms and suddenly understand that Thomas Jefferson had been dead only 142 years longer than Bobby Kennedy which is not a long time in places like Egypt and Cambodia and approximately the same, in fact, as the life expectancy of the average American woman by the year 2015.

I was brooding on these things as I bounded up the long gray steps and found Andrew fretting nervously on his slab in the Main Floor Executive Men's Room. He had some rumpled-looking Xerox pages out in front of him, but he quickly gathered them up as I entered.

I smell like poo.

Perhaps a shower is in order. ~The mod

[Debonair Danny DiPietro]

I see how it is Baltar. I wasn't going to do it, but you pushed me and I can't allow this to stand without a response. Here's your avatar for the F&E debacle.

Ugh....how much time did I agree to? ~The mod

[Vi]

Hey 'hudo. How likely is xRx to be lynched IYO?

[Percy]

Your case on me also hinges on Jack flipping scum...

Not necessarily. Whilst Jack-scum would provide very good evidence that I'm onto something here, I think your behaviour is still legitimately scummy.

What do you think about Jack now?

I much prefer an Amished lynch than a Jahudo lynch at this point. The best case against Jahudo is this one by DDD, and it still hinges mostly on kyle analysis and some minor inconsistencies in Jahudo's play. I think Jahudo reads town.

Right now, I think xRx needs to die, due to massive inconsistencies in reads, wagon jumping and "I'm playing badly and not reading because I don't care about this game"-like excuses.

Unvote, Vote: xRECKONERx

. Go wagon GOOOOO!

I still want a percy lynch.

GDIAF.

I don't think hohum's behaviour is going to change any time soon. Today he has done

absolutely fucking nothing

. He's never going to respond to the points against him by myself and ekiM, because everyone else

already did it for him

. It would have been really good to hear it in his own words, but it's not going to happen. With him playing how he's playing, I have no further comment on it aside from

super lurking and super coasting

.

I have no idea how to handle hohum's slot right now, but I can't state in strong enough terms just how much I loathe this state of affairs.

Current lynch preference:

hohum > xRx > Amished > Zach
(If I feel like a hohum wagon has any chance of succeeding, I'll vote him in a heartbeat.)

Percy sounds a bit like scum that's pissed that at people like hohum and xReck not drawing the fire he thinks they should.

Why scum, necessarily?

Not necessarily. "a bit" Town get frustrated too of course.

I don't really do "details" with a feeling like that. The bolded swearing maybe.

I'm into aesthetics. If you can tell me why you feel some way, it's really helpful.

As it is,

bolding things

isn't out of the ordinary for Percy when he gets worked up. And with xRx and hohum, swearing is just a

small

large part of friendly, mutually understood conversation.

But enough about my opinion. What do you think of Percy atm?

[Jack]

I'm not that familiar with what he would or wouldn't do. I think the bit amished pointed out about him holding kyle to a different standard is pretty damning if jahudo turns out to be scum. That's my main thing on him.

I have seen scum get annoyed at a bad townie not being lynched. I've been annoyed about that as scum myself. And the reasons he's listing are all "bad townie, scum case fodder" type things--"he's done nothing, he's inconsistent, he's wagon hopping" etc.

[Percy]

I'm waiting for Amished to explain the "double standard" point I raised against him; but I still view hohum's play as scummier overall.

xRx has been bugging me, and I think a good wagonning is in order. I don't think we should be establishing "Amished or Jahudo, one of these people will be lynched!" when there is still some time until deadline. If it comes down to it, I'm more than happy to vote Amished, because I think both he and his predecessor are scummy.

Accusations that I'm lurker-hunting/anti-town-hunting are untrue. I am not calling either hohum or xRx scum based on their anti-town play, but their scummy play.
(I am

very frustrated

with hohum's anti-town play (which is quite aside from his scummy play), and I like to

bold things for emphasis

.)

As for the kyle meta point: I stand by my meta-read of kyle, as well as my position that meta's usefulness is limited. I've looked at hohum's meta, and I don't think it excuses his behaviour. I didn't say "meta is always useless and anyone who uses it is scum, also I'm going to use it now lolz", so I don't see the double standard.

[xRECKONERx]

Lynch me and get it over with.

I apologize for my play this game, but I can't bring myself to care, and I'm not gonna replace out.

[ekiM]

You're a jerk.

[ekiM]

Mini 942 - Gonzo Mafia needs 0 replacements.

What do you think about Jack now?

You have yet to come up with any other scum motivation for my actions that doesn't hinge on Jack scum.

My Jack suspicions haven't suddenly gone away, they've taken a back seat to Amished/Locke Lamora and most of my issue with Jack's slot is with either Flinter's play (Which can no longer be answered for.) or Jack's day 1 play. Since then there hasn't been anything that he's done that stands out as scummy, but that doesn't mean I'm suddenly comfortable with him either.

[Jahudo]

Hey 'hudo. How likely is xRx to be lynched IYO?

Its possible some people not on his wagon aren't opposed to it now, or will later change their minds in favor of his lynch. My vote switch was based on finding him scummy, and not finding the Amished part of Amished-Locke scummy.

Vi, are you done with your re-read?

[ekiM]

Wagons I'd go for: hohum, Amished, xRx. In order.

Why exactly are you wagoning Reckoner over your top preference?

[Zachrulez]

Unvote: Vote: Percy

[Zachrulez]

I'm fine with lynching Hohum or Amished as well at this point.

[Jack]

I'm torn on whether hohum is town being annoying, or scum just not caring/deciding best strategy was to not post and let the cards fall.

[xRECKONERx]

I'd also like to hear why Percy decided to vote me over his top choice.

[Jack]

Let's just lynch Jahudo.

[ekiM]

Why?

[Jack]

You're 2nd on my scum list, so don't mind me if I ignore you.
