Ergh. elvis, my gut instinct says you're both scum, actually, but the more you post the more I want to lynch you first. The fact that BJ just jumped off of your wagon onto bigAl of all people isn't helping alleviate my concerns, but right now I think you're the vote leader.

You're not being very specific about what you feel is scummy about me.

Not-Very-Scummy Vote Count

Baby Jesus: 2 (BigAl, Fuldu)
elvis_knits: 2 (MeMe, Mr. Flay)
BigAl: 1 (BabyJesus)


Not so much the voting: Bamboomancer, elvis_knits, kops, Tamuz
It's better to be lucky than skilled, surely. However, it's a lot easier to be skilled twice than lucky twice.

Not really. Flay doesn't like that BJ didn't OMGUS me right away, and MeMe thinks my attack on her was weak.

actually, like i said, I didn't find you all that scummy b4, but over the last page (13 on default settings), I've been leaning more towards you being scum
Your attack on MeMe
was
extremely weak. I mean, you're voting her for misunderstanding Flay... You're also voting her for being pro-lurker lynch, which IMO is not a scum trait. Many people (myself included, in fact even this game) are both pro-town and pro-lurker lynch, and sure sometimes it doesn't work out, like TSA, but sometimes you catch a scum and either way at least you're lynching an unhelpful person. Neither of your arguments against her seem to mark her as very scummy, yet you seem to be determined to start a bandwagon on her.
I admit, I can't really make a case for why MeMe would be town, and I won't deny she
might
be scum, but I can say that even if she is scum, your reasoning is not very good.
I think for now I will
vote E_K
. Before anyone jumps on me for passive-aggressive crap or whatever, like I said, I wasn't suspicious until the last page or so, but you have managed to change my mind.

Well, most of elvis's concerns are either already been explaned or pretty much insubstantial. Now she's going back on it it seems. Putting a vote on lurkers can bring them back in the game and make more participation, perhaps without needing to go al the way to a lynch?

Why to Mr. Flay? though I know I haven't been terribly helpful the last few days, mostly cause I have no idea who's scum ATM.

I thought as much, though didn't quite make sense at the time (seems kind of the reverse?). I guess I understand now.

Iunno, that really doesn't sit well with me Elvis. That seems slightly motvated out of spite rather than actual attempts to figure out who is scum. You pretty much just jumped onto a bandwagon that had no basis like what every BJ created wagon has seemed to be so far.

I really didn't have a lot that hadn't already been said, either by myself or someone else.

So besides the dedication, what's the justification for your bigAl vote, elvis? Voting with BJ is less scummy-seeming?

Actually, the longer I look at this game, the more I am starting to agree with Mr. Flay's ideas. Elvis has had a few odd accusations the last few days.

I would also like to know why the vote.

I am voting for bigAl for slightly metagaming reasons. He is being very noncommital and very I-am-so-confused-I-don't-kow-who-is-scum. Last time I saw him like that he was scum. I already said I was suspicious of his attitude in post 69.

Plus nothing is happening and I am frustrated with everyone's lack of reasoning in voting me, and some BS about me being scum with BJ because of something BJ did not do (did not OMGUS vote me).

All there's really been in this game is me defending myself from weak arguments and flipflopping townies, hell, you guys would make john kerry proud.

So what's there for me to say about the issue anymore? my mind is beyond made up. As for the EK lynch, it started as a BJ suspicion and I don't buy any argument relating to anything BJ did EVER.

Okay, it's not BABOOM. It's not BAMBOOM.

BJ... his last vote was his only vote, a random vote. So don't pretend like he's going back on his word.

Yet that does bring to my attention that Bamboomancer hasn't voted anyone except for a random vote. That's lame. He might need to be lynched for that.

we're on D2 with a good bit of discussion and 14 pages and he's cast a single random vote. Seriously.

unvote, vote bamboomancer


He needs to contribute. If he is scum, we're not going to be able to tell jack shit if he never votes. Let's run his ass up.

Could you waffle any more on that opinion, elvis??

Happier than ever with where my vote is. I think elvis is scum, scum, scum, though no longer sure with whom.

I'm betting EK and Bamboomancer are scum buddies. I'd be happy to lynch either one.

It's always been my policy, after my first few games, to be very cautious with my votes. I treat each one as if it could end the game and should only be placed under absolute certainty. I think it's good policy, especially good practice for endgame, and it's something else I'm not going to apologize for.
