We all turn into self-aligned third parties if we mislynch the first day. Any hope for a coordinated plan exists as far as the morals of the playerbase extend and not allegiance to a common wincondition.

I'm still not sure how I feel about that beginning to the day, but for now I think Ben is town for other actions during the day.
But if I took 5 minutes to read the game I'd know the plan was pointless.

So I'm a scum mastermind, yet I didn't take 5 minutes to read the game? :? Thanks for confirming me town.

And I did answer it... first I was clarifying the need to still answer, cause I thought you dropped it after being hounded, or modified it:

Glad you prefaced me answering this question truthfully :facepalm: ..

Uhm lets see, I quasi-retired in the Wire/wrapped up invitational. So I'm in no games because RL is bat shit cray. But a 14 day game sounds like something I can do, as I am a fiend.

I'm excited to see what relevance this has.

It's because OS is probably scum.

I'm feeling good about JacobSavage, as he continues to make random posts that spit in the face of all that is good and townie.

Yeah, he was my scumbuddy in that game. It was the one where you and me beat the crap out of Mist Beauty.

OH! And Quilford should remember that--- he was in Red Dead too--- DGB, you hid behind him and breadcrumbed it, but MoI replaced him overnight (and killed me) and the slot got lynched the next morning.

As you are good at scum and generally don't miss a beat on what people post, I didn't want to say anything about your "plan" looking staged in case you would come up with a better reaction to it.

You are good at being scum yes. At the time I didn't believe you would actually propose such a glaringly bad plan as town unless you were trying to play dumb for whatever reason. I thought this was part of a plan to look more "open" and transparent to the town.

I did see that, but I was looking for a little bit more on why you proposed the plan that you did and whether or not you thought of this plan before the game started (i.e. when you kicked FourTrouble out of the game to join).

Kuribo, Red Dead is mostly eaten. I'm pretty sure it doesn't even have it's full Day 1.

Happy Scumday, Venmar!

No, I think I touched on this as well... That the plan came after skimming the game and I thought we could mass organize night actions to break the game.

I kicked FT out for YOU GUYS! *bows* (otherwise guess which mislynch would be goin down today)

Im quoting this to make sure DGB will notice. She knows why.

CES, short of wasting towns time with dumb questions, many of my oversoul criticisms apply to you. Do you have any reads or opinions?
You never commented on this DGB.

Lets just do this already. DGB swing back. We're approaching that 40 page mark.

I've been planning on winning tomorrow the entire game. Between the 3 leading wagons I'd like you to go. DGB doesn't seem to have support, cause apparently we don't lynch skilled players D1... It is what it is. I'm ready for night.

Are you seriously trying to end the game on page 40 when some players haven't even so much done more than vote? That number is completely arbitrary.

We still have 11 days too.
Ben, who are you planning on accusing? If it is DGB, what will you do if she flees?

Also, a word of note, I don't see anywhere in the rules where we are going to get post lynch time to discuss things so anyone planning on using that time to test reactions is sorely mistaken

Once a lynch occurs this game automatically goes into the accusation stage.

Yes, we won't have the ability to post... it will be independant legwork at that time... Something I still want ample time to work with.

I've sorted out most my reads, and I'll go back to clarify... a flip and a flee will do wonders.

The 40 page mark is arbitrary but symbolizes a point where we've had enough. I've had enough.

Out of the three leading wagons I am least confident in you flipping town.

You are least confident that I will flip town but you've stated you are planning to win tomorrow regardless.
That is pretty ridiculous if you feel that you know who the scum is but you aren't trying to get them lynched especially when you'll get a second chance if you are wrong about them and we lynch them + they could flee.
