Newbie 988-Apocalypse(Over)-Scum win

[Beanman]

Ok, AtE much? No one is attacking anyone personally. that's not what this game is about. Montgomery's vote was completely random, and she gave an arbituary reason for it.

One sec...

[Makeorbreak]

I am just very emotional!
PLEASE, just leave me alone!

[yabbaguy]

@Makeorbreak: All the suspicion really is active lurking.

But all we need you to do is to just say something about the game and we can get rolling again.

Such as:

- what you make of montgomery's idle OMGUS remark
- what you make of my stance on the RVS. Or others' stances
- who you actually find scummy, if anyone. I promise, nobody's 100% sure at this point. But can you at least offer a name and a nominal reason?

And others. The first two are more what stuck out to me, but you can definitely answer that latter point.

Since I can't hug you through the internet, how about you post content now instead?

(Better solution: Come back tomorrow, then post content? Again, emotional compromise can really blow a hole in your town image, so cooling off for a day really can do wonders if that's the case.)

[yabbaguy]

And that's why I Obama-rolled the thread, so that we don't get a sudden influx of "lynch the helpless victim who naively does AtE" and leading to an easy scum mislynch.

She could be Mafia. But you can't tell from that. You just can't.

[Makeorbreak]

I was very busy today, I have not been lurking. My Grandfather turned 80 Years old yesterday, and we celebrated it! I have so much going on right now, vote me off, I could not care less, because you'd be losing an inactive townie.

[Makeorbreak]

I voted for Montgomery as retaliation, and because of the votes already placed for her. Majority is all I can really rely on right now.

[Adrien C]

I will

Unvote

. Most people who get that emotional from being accused is town. Not confirming she's town, but that reaction made me uncomfortable with lynching her.

[Makeorbreak]

Don't think of this as a change of topic, just simply curious, You have an eidetic memory?

[Adrien C]

Yes, I do.

[Makeorbreak]

Amazing, wish I could say the same.

[Adrien C]

It's useful in this game. Back to scumhunting...

Who do you think might be the most likely to flip scum, Melissa?

[Makeorbreak]

Dekes, maybe? I'm not quite sure.
As it has been said, he may have been protecting scum.
I'm not quite sure I understand you?

Oh, I fixed my time zone setting for my board preferences. I had it set to GMT -6, even though I'm currently GMT -7, and I've never lived in GMT -6. No wonder I was a bit mystified regarding some of the posting times.

[Adrien C]

You answered it in the correct manner. I think you got what I was asking. But like yabba said, get opinionated. Find a suspect, question them, and apply some pressure on them.

And for future reference, having people sniffing at your feet and applying pressure on you is part of the game.

Yuck. Who came up with

that

metaphor for questioning?

[Adrien C]

@Mod I'm a criminal justice major. It's supposed to be like a drug sniffing dog sniffing at your feet for drugs.

But...sniffing my

feet

? Never mind, sorry. I'll just...shut up and mod now.

[Makeorbreak]

So, how about Pride & Prejudice & Zombies?

[tanstalas]

I too would like to hear more from kyle99 and Montgomery, basically what I have gotten from all their posts thus far is:

kyle99
*I'm your SE
*Random voting for people is fun!
*Going to shortform your name to Tan

montgomery
*I'm a girl
*vote for the other girl because of someone named Blair Waldorf
*I know the mod from another site
*Voting again for makeorbreak because of Blair
*OMGUS!

What does this vote count # mean?

[Adrien C]

Probably Day Number (period) the number of the vote count of the day (like that one was the fourth).

[Adrien C]

Kyle really does need to start posting.

[kyle99]

Wowzies, forgot about this game guys. My bad
Catchup post to follow soon.

How could you possibly

forget

about

this

game? Are you suggesting that any other mod is able to make a more memorable game than me? Don't get me even started on my storyline! Are you saying that you just for

got

about the total corruption of the last remaining superpower on earth, it's subsequent penultimate global domination and following deterioration into broken bands of underground bunker-towns lacking any form of social communication outside their own secluded camping places, utterly cutoff from the surface world for fear of their very survival?!?

You mean to tell me that you just forgot about

life and death for the entire human race?

[kyle99]

Couple things I want to bring up:

Adrien C's post 54 is pretty bad. IC's odds of being scum are the same as anyone else. Not saying that he is, but discounting them as being as scum JUST because there the IC is bad reasoning. Also, why the FoS as opposed to the vote?

Makorbreak needs to chill. Not really liking her play, but that could be just her taking stuff to personal.

VOTE: Makeorbreak
@Makeorbreak: Who's do you think is scum right now and what do you think of the game so far?

[montgomery]

Okay sorry for the inactivity, been busy with school. First off, I really dislike the way MakeorBreak is approaching this, she is essentially active lurking, by making posts with very little content and isn’t in any way trying to aide town. Saying “Oh hurr hurr I’m being voted and am emotional!” Isn’t in any way trying to scum hunt, and wanting to further a bandwagon at RVS is counter-productive to town. I also find it very strange the way MakeorBreak acted towards my vote on RVS. To be honest if I didn’t know better I would say MakeorBreak was a troll, but I’m not sure. @MakeorBreak - did you feel like by OMGUSing me you where trying to further a lynch? Do you feel like a lynch this early in the day is a good strategy.

I think it is strange that Adrien is unvoting because usually town are emotional, but usually town also try and find mafia (and in my experience, town try to be logical and point out how they aren’t scum instead of making empty posts) and to take your vote off because of this is very strange.

The only over thing I noticed was Bean dismissing Deke’s curiosity over it being day one. It seems odd to say that because it is day one, actions shouldn’t be asked to explain/be pointed out for being suspicious. Mafia will do things to further their agenda even on day one, and town should try to find these things, so it seems like an odd move. @Bean - Why is it that you think actions done early in the game shouldn't be analysed thoroughly?

[montgomery]

Also can we please keep this on topic. Save the irrelevant to game stuff for some other time.
