Newbie 1001 - Game Over

[Pizzaplate]

Belt sander - something that is not a chainsaw. I was using figurative speech.

[skn27]

Oh, okay thank you to you both. I want to say that if I were trying to protect KWB because he's my scum partner, I don't think I would have made it that obvious. I was only trying to defend him because I understand how he feels since we're both so nooby.

[KoreanWonderBoy]

skn27 I agree. It's quite easy to feel sympathetic to people in the same situation as you. Which means I think skn27 is innocent. She has done voting just like I would have, but like I said I was too timid. Which won't happen anymore.
About MiTC and shotty, I was trying to read shotty and give him a fresh card, but I finally realized (that I'm really stupid? ) that shotty would have the same role as MiTC so if MiTC was suspicious, shotty should be as well. So since the deadline's coming up, I vote shotty.

Vote: Shotty (or whoever is replacing him/her)

Picking up prod. I apologize for disappearing today. I hit a couple of real-life deadlines. I'm barely coherent right now, so I'll catch up in the morning. >_>

[Banana Stickers]

I'm having some difficulty determining whether they are truly having trouble because we don't have any obvious scum tells in play, or because they (and by 'they' I mean either or both) can't get an accusation on someone they know is town to stick.

I certainly understand this. It's why I didn't vote skn for so long - she's new, there wasn't a lot of STRONG scum tells in play. But my post of her in iso was enough to convince me. Lots of waffling, as you say, votes without reasons (or poor ones), backpedals, etc.

Is shotty still around? I'm looking for more details on this:

as soon as XS attacked KWB just a bit you could tell he got a bit tense, then whenever XS voted him and attacked KWB a little bit again he countered with a OMGUS and a weak chainsaw deffense

I just read skn in iso and didn't see this.

In short, what i see is this: Starts a minor case on Trenchcoat, barely maintains it until he disappears. Slaps the name substrike into half his later posts and complains about not having anything to do because Trenchcoat left. He's been doing virtually nothing the entire game, including at the start. Hes been more verbally active recently than at the start, actually, because hes trying to rekindle discussion, rather than scumhunt or attack people.

Now this is interesting. Just re-read Memnon looking for this. Honestly, I think Memnon did more that "barely maintaining" the case on MiTC, but he certainly wasn't going hot and heavy on it. And again, I think "virtually nothing" is also a stretch, there's been some decent content from him, but you're right - the vast majority of his posts are sort of active lurky type posts. Unfortunately it looks like Memnon will be V/LA for the next 2 days or so so he can't respond. I'm maintaining my vote on skn and there it will stay unless there comes a VERY strong case against someone else, skn redeems herself, or if there's a last minute claim hulabaloo of some sort, but I would like to see what Memnon says to this.

[CallMeLiam]

boberz replaces drmyshottyizsik starting right away.

[drmyshottyizsik]

((((((((

[drmyshottyizsik]

it wasn't even three days Mod

[drmyshottyizsik]

it was like a bit over one.....

[Equinox]

You announced a V/LA of 1-2 weeks soon after you replaced in. People have been replaced for less.

[drmyshottyizsik]

I said I would be limitted access for one and v/la for two, maybe three days tops and I posted two days ago, pretty sure that means I wasn't V/La

[CallMeLiam]

drshotty: I told you via PM on Tuesday I would be replacing you and announced it in thread the same day. A week's V\LA is too much in a Newbie game.

[boberz]

I believe I am officially replacing in. Sorry drm.

I will catch up in not too long.

[drmyshottyizsik]

you said please post by the weekend, and I was posting on tuesday

[boberz]

I have recieved confirmation that I am replacing in, please take any complaints to the mod drm. Sorry (no hard feelings I hope)

[drmyshottyizsik]

EDITED BY THE MOD.

[boberz]

(As I am rereading I will have an occasional monologue to ammuse myself through the reread)

After two and a half pages I read myself as a scumbag, then realised it was me. FailRead

Vote: Shotty (or whoever is replacing him/her)

Questions.

1. You seem to be clearing skn27 on the basis that skn27 is acting like you would in this situation. Do you consider people who act like you to be town?
2. Why would you give drmyshottyizsik a fresh card?

[I shall catch up on the longer posts momentarily. I'm focusing on getting my class reading done first.]

[boberz]

Internal monologue installment 1....

Page 7 and I am very dissapointed with town. It appears there is lots of discusson about how people might intend to scumhunt, whether they are scumhunting blah blah blah. Very little actual scumhunting.

[boberz]

internal monologue chapter 3...

I'm truly not sure about substrike's role. But I'm gonna put an attack on him, just for the sake of attacking.

cringe

[boberz]

Now that was a hard read. I replace into a lot of games and this was in the top two or three hard to read games I have been in. Not good.

Now I am caught up though. The main problem has been the lack of any focus. Town has been chasing its tail for the entirity of the game.

Now Equinox, Pizza and Korean I reckon you are all town; so my offer to you is pick a player any player and coordinate. I can tell that may well end up being me but I am a big boy and can defend myself. If you guys coordinate a bit we can establish what is going on quicker.

Meanwhile Memnon has been very bad and needs a nice proper wagon full of clever handsome townsfolk.

VOTE: MemnonUNVOTE:

Memmon in post #188 "There goes my top suspect" bad bad bad. You should not be looking at your suspect dissapearing as a bad thing it is as if you were targetting a lynch and your lynch has gone and now you might just find the next player is good (he wasnt).

Now Memnon thinking that he needs to find lynches rather than work out who is scum is allignment dependent. Scum looking for mislynches, town looking for scum. The difference is the thing that helps us find scum, and I have.

A significant amount of his posts are worthless pieces of drivel that are succeeding bore town towards a loss.

Maybe there will be more but the read took a fair bit out of me. I sense I may cause a bit of controversy anyway.

[boberz]

Also we need more wagons. Nice big juicy wagons.

[Ragnarokio]

assuming skn votes you before dying, we technically have two people at L-1. I also thought that i was voting memnon, but apparently i still had my vote on substrike.

Unvote

Vote: Memnon

I'd suggest not lynching boberz, since he seems genuinely helpful and regardless of alignment, thats a good thing to have around.
