Did people forget it's day 2 or something?

@Oddin: So let me get this straight: tunneling is scummy, yet that doesn't justify you voting for Karma? What exactly do people have to do to convince you to vote?

[Scott Brosius]

Wow this game has died. Looks like Chaos hasn't posted anywhere in almost 2 weeks, easjo in about a week. However, Chronopie has been posting in other games and promised a reread 3 days ago.

Unvote
Vote: Chronopie

[XScorpion]

@Mod: prods please?

[ODDin]

Ok, I do think Chaos is scummy for the his sudden reversal on Chrono for no reason, but I think Chrono is even scummier at the moment, and that if Chrono flipped scum, then it would make it more likely that Chaos was also. What do you think of Chrono?

Neutral-leaning-scummy. He's been lurking since D1, but I get the impression he's just being lazy and not purposefully lurking.

I've explained this already. It's not a matter of convincing, I'm convinced enough. It's just that there's too little discussion at the moment and there are people who haven't posted anything. I don't want a lynch to happen before everybody has expressed their opinion on it, because otherwise we're losing vital information. If we lynch karma and he flips town, you can have people saying "well, I'd tell you he's town but I wasn't there", and there's nothing you can do about it because you can't know if they're lying or not. And on the other hand, if he flips town, everybody can go "sure, I'd vote for him too he was super scummy", and again, you can't know if they're lying or not.
Thus, I don't want to put karma at L-2 in the current situation - too close to a lynch for my tastes. I'll vote when those who haven't expressed their opinion on karma do so (or most of them, at least). Unless I change my opinion until then, that is.

EBWOP: And on the other hand, if he flips scum

[XScorpion]

I'm surprised the mod hasn't gotten impatient yet from the lack of posting...
I bet if there was a deadline people would get back into the game :/

[Karma]

I've seen Chrono lurk to victory as scum before.

[XScorpion]

I've seen Karma lurk to victory as scum before.
See what I did there?

[Karma]

Ohohoho. I do.

But I wouldn't really say I was lurking, would you?

What a clever little rhyme

[XScorpion]

Yeah that was actually worse.
You weren't even watching the game.

[Karma]

I know, it was pretty weak. I'm embarrassed about that.

BUT STILL:

where in the fuck is Chaos?

[XScorpion]

More like, where in the fuck is everybody.
This game is dying and if the mod gets impatient and drops a deadline we are gonna have problems...sure we might get lucky and hit scum today (almost 50% chance!) but it will give us basically no information for tomorrow.

[Karma]

I totally agree. I don't like lynching someone out of the active players (probably because 2 of my biggest scum readings are lurking the fuck out of this game)

[ODDin]

Wait, karma, who's your second biggest scum read other than chaos?

[Karma]

Chronopie

[ODDin]

Curious. Before your recent post about seeing chrono lurk to victory, you only ever mentioned him in relation to what others said about him - chaos, mostly. And that was in order to bring a case against chaos, not chrono. The only post that can be somehow seen as accusing chrono is this one (not quoting for the sake of readability.)
And even there you don't actually say chrono is scummy, you just say his posts aren't townie enough in your opinion to warrant chaos' reaction - again, this is part of your argument against chaos. Calling it an accusation of chrono is a serious stretch.
Bottom line, you never, ever, said "chrono is scummy" in this game prior to "I've seen Chrono lurk to victory as scum before."
And suddenly he's your second biggest scum read?

I get the impression the whole 'I'm busier in other games so I can't give this one much time' and 'I forgot about this game' nonsense is just a convenient excuse.

[ODDin]

You may be right. The fact is that he's lurking. He may be purposefully lurking in order to stay under the radar, he may be simply lazy. My gut tells me it's the second option, but truth be told, I don't see much concrete evidence either way.
Though if he's a lazy townie, he needs to get his ass into the game ASAP. It's only 15 pages, no big deal.

[Karma]

@ODDin:

Yes.

[Mr.Sandman]

Why? Do you think they're linked on a scum team or just scummy in their own right?

[Karma]

Chaos and chrono? Good question. I'll have to reread their interactions.

[XScorpion]

Too bad it's not as simple as just, you know, asking them...which is completely ridiculous.

prods for everyone who needs prods, please

[Scott Brosius]

I'm here, but really have nothing new to add as this game only has 5 participants.

[Karma]

@Mod: Please replace me. A lot of things have been happening recently in RL and I have to cut some games. This, unfortunately, has to be one of them.
