Out of curiousity, what makes you think that there is even a question of multiple scum groups or not? In any large game, I go into the game assuming that we have multiple scum groups, because I have yet to see one where we didn't, unless that was the premise of the entire game (which it isn't in this instance).MrBuddyLee wrote:HarryPotter, what do you think of bluemonick's actions in the days leading up to his lynch? Who do you think he was implicating, and do you think he was telling the truth about there being multiple scum groups?
Armlx, what do you think about Max's "un-Maxlike" actions this game. What do you think about the fact that scum didn't try to wagon him at all?
Since you're asking questions, I've got a few for you.
As nice as it is to get complimented, you failed to actually comment on my suspicions. Do you agree with my assessment of TheCesspit? Do you believe he's scummy as well?MrBuddyLee wrote:MoS has just demonstrated that he actually reread the thread. In light of everyone else's apathy, I choose to see that as a pro-town move on his part. Nice work mang.
I noticed you mentioned my name somewhere in this mammoth of a post, and i was wondering if you could point out what you were referring to me about, since I don't understand.MrBuddyLee wrote:THE LYNCHING OF OUR ONLY SCUM
PART I: THE WAGONFuldu wrote:Huh? I don't understand BMQ's argument against Yosarian and Ireallydon't understand bluemonick's jump to that bandwagon. It seems like BMQ is suggesting that Yosarian's playstyle is different from past games, which I don't see, but if he'd care to elaborate a bit more, I might. But bluemonick is new enough that that can't be what he's saying. And the comment about "less of an investigator" and "more like 'laying back'" is, frankly, nonsense. Yosarian seems to me to be pushing as hard at the issues he finds important in this game as he usually does. I happen not to find the particular issue he's chosen to be especially noteworthy, but I can see the logic behind it. Coupled with the fact that he got himself blowed up, which seems likely to be a scum mechanism, I think this looks like a scummy pair of votes.

Can we just lynch him, then?I think these posts need to be reread and looked back on. Bogre claimed townie but yet he was still lynched by this two towards the end. Yosaiain2, that is really suspicious, you just saying, "Can we just lynch him, then?" Isnt that what a Scum wants to do, Lycnch Townies.ibaesha wrote:I'm up for that. I really doubt a major change before deadline.unvote; vote BogreI think that puts him at lynch -1. Anyone got a hammah?
Ibaesha, you seem to be following the footsteps of Ibaesha as these posts I quoted were 3 posts right in a row. To me both of you are Suspiciosus right now, and seem to be working as Scum Partners. I already voted for Yosaiain2 so:FOS: Ibaesha
And this is the main reason I voted for Yosaisin2 but didnt explain it then all of a sudden people start to bandwagon me for no apparent reason than "I seemed to agree with so and so to easily". Im sorry I just didnt explain myself better.bluemonick wrote:Ibaesha, you seem to be following the footesteps of YOSAIAIN2.........bluemonick, going down in flames wrote:More than likely..........ibaesha.
Because he's very Scumadeltic
You want a Claim? Im Scum. the Last Post was Committing Sucide already.
Btw, Nabbed by my Own Scum Partner.Anyone who doesn't think scum jumped on that wagon as quick as possible is a monkey's uncle. There was very little reason not to bus bluemonick.Yaw wrote:bluemonick (12): Fuldu, ibaesha, PookyTheMagicalBear, spectrumvoid,Fritzler, Brian McQueso, TheCesspit,Masterchief, Colonel Kurtz,BabyJesus, Max,the silent speaker
Pooky, spectrumvoid, Cesspit, Kurtz, Max all piled on the bluemonick wagon with little ado. It was a wagon that evolved, if you believe in conspiracy theories, to take the heat off Colonel Kurtz who was one of the leading vote getters at the time.
Of the various reasonings for votes on bluemonick, Kurtz's was the oddest.
Also, note that while Fuldu made the case against bluemonick, it was Ibby who bluemonick zeroed in on and tried to implicate. It's such a bizarre transposition that you'd almost have to think that either he was genuinely pissed at his scumpartner or that he intentionally picked Ibby to "cleverly" conceal the fact that it was scumpartner Fuldu who really nailed him.
I'll be VERY surprised if neither of {Fuldu, Ibby} are scum. I'll also be surprised if both are.
PART II: THE AFTERMATH
The next day, no one talked about the strange goings on at the end of yesterday. I imagine it had been the hot topic amongst scum the night before:
(a)"Wow, he tried to set up pro-town Ibby, at least he went out half smart."
or
(b)"Wow, he tried to take you out, Ibbs. What a complete jackass."
If (a), I'd expect scum to have at least taken a poke at her the next day.
If (b), I imagine the gameplan for the next morning was to talk about something else entirely and see if people would just forget the nasty goings on.
What happened?
Kurtz
spectrumvoid
Yos
MoS
Cesspit
All come out quick with distractions. "Jeez, I thought Lordy was scum," followed by a long two-page dissertation on the office-blower-upper.
I feel terrible for Ibby if she got outed by her scumpartner, but it easily could have been WIFOM as well. The reaction the next day makes me more likely to believe, however, that her scumpartners pushed an agenda of distraction in the morning.
I am open to alternative interpretations.
