[The Central Scrutinizer]

unaccuse, accuse:Jack

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Maybe you should unvote yourself, Jack.

Mafia roleblockers are ftw.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

unvote

pending a legitimate counterclaim.

Personally, I think that if Mr. Green is an FBI agent in any of the other games, then he isn't in this one.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

I came up town in the other game dude.

Logical fallacy much?

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Your alignment in one game does not determine your alignment in another.

For all I know, it was your intention to sacrifice yourself in that game in the hopes of getting a free pass in this one.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

It's not a fallacy. Presumably you voted me for my behavior this game, which is the same as the other game, because you found that behavior scummy.

Voting you for the sort of behavior you're exhibiting is a sound play no matter your alignment... so don't do your best to convince me of that fact.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

I don't really have time to be giving logic lessons.

Anyone countering? No? Then it's time to look elsewhere.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

I unvoted because Jack claimed a cop role. I asked for a counterclaim. If there is one, then I am

more

than willing to jump back on. If there is not, then we need to be voting elsewhere. I did not believe his claim in Game One, and, to be honest, I'm tired of these games lagging so much. At least the speedlynch will generate discussion.

Minor FoS: Battle Mage

. Pressure votes are not usually his style. IIRC almost every vote he's ever cast has been random or accompanied with an "OMG THIS GUY IS SCUM YOU IDIOTS" kind of message. A "pressure vote" from him is highly irregular.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

:O

Can't keep my games straight. Saw FBI, remembered tracker, thought Cop.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Pressure votes are not usually his style.

That's not good logic. Playing differently usually isn't a scumtell, especially when it's only one time.

It's worked for me before. :shrug:

[The Central Scrutinizer]

unaccuse, accuse: Battle Mage

assuming I haven't been for like the last two weeks.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

:bump:

[The Central Scrutinizer]

lol more than before. im only vanilla townie here.

LOLOCAUST

So... doesn't that mean there were less votes needed this time?

You're too hilarious. The other cube-dwellers are giving me funny looks.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

I guess it's easy to accuse the only two people posting on a regular basis of being in league with each other somehow. If anything the fact that we're willing to talk when everyone else is clamming up makes us more protown. I can't speak to the content of Billy's role pms, but mine are uniformly town-aligned.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Well if you think being willing to talk when others are lurking makes someone pro town then you would do just that as scum wouldn't you?

And I do.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

But lynching lurkers is still a valid metagame ploy... even knowing that, many scum still do, and it also motivates the town to talk more in general.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Mass prods, please?

[The Central Scrutinizer]

unaccuse, accuse: DoS

All players should immediately move to lynch the scum.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

You make a valid point about lynching scum TCS... but I don't like you trying to frame me for your scumminess is just absurd. Give me one good reason you believe I am scum?

This is a post generally indicative of lazy scum:

I have no idea what is going on. If these games were really developing at all I would have a reason to post. As it is I don't really see anything worth while that has happened, and imo BM is just being BM and not more scummy than usual yet.

And mainly I just wanted to see your response to it... or get you to post at all. That you would find it necessary to throw it back in my face is noted. IGMEOY.

That being said, I don't think you're a good lynch today. I still think we should lynch BM.

unaccuse, accuse: Battle Mage

[The Central Scrutinizer]

This is new. This is "let's lynch BM so he can't fuck up our games anymore."

Maybe it'll catch.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

All right, I cooled off.

unvote

I'll reassess my position in this game, and I will only vote BM if I believe him to be the proper candidate, not simply because he's Battle Mage.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Ok, my new policy is to absolutely ignore Battle Mage unless he does something out of the ordinary. Acting scummy, making unfounded accusations, extrapolating things no one else would extrapolate, OMGUSing, and claiming on day one will all be considered ordinary activity.

Dragons of Summer is providing zero content for this game. None. Nada. Bupkiss. At least I'm making you think I'm all scum. That's worthless of me, but I'd rather have a game with 15 Battle Mages than 15 lurkers.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

All right, now that I've outed myself in Clue 1, I can tell you why I'm going to

Accuse: Jack

. In the other game, I am Wadsworth, FBI Agent, and my role is Cop, not Roleblocker. I don't think his flavor claim makes sense.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Wait, you're right... the Cop was different in different games. Valid point.

unvote

.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

I think it would be better to lynch someone who is actually doing something scummy. My behavior in this game is absolutely consistent with TCS-town. I like to build wagons and I like to lay down hammers. That part of the game is fun to me. Right now I'm suspicious of

everyone

in this game, so I doubt how much I can really help you.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

unaccuse, Accuse: TCS

. Post #100 is ridiculous.

DoS, it's scummy to ask someone voting for you why they think you are scum. At least I got you to post. The fact that you brought up

me

in your post is noted. But, all in all I don't think your a great lynch today, mostly because today is the deadline and I have 4 votes on me and BM only has 3, so I am going to unaccuse you and accuse BM to save my own arse.

From your reaction to the lynch in Clue 2 I think you are scum in at least 1 of these other games, and you seem town in Clue 1; top that off with post #100 and the obvious lynch avoidance tactic earns you my vote.

Dredging up the past a bit, I really don't like this post. Post 100 was my obvious frustration with Battle Mage. I'm in at least five games with him at the moment, and I was having a bad day for tolerating his nonsensical accusations and extrapolations. Furthermore, I think your reason for voting me is

really

weak. You're claiming my behavior in another game affects my behavior in this one. It doesn't. I've been pushing hard in the Clue games for the same reason I push in

any

game--the day is dragging and no one else has taken an active role in hunting out scum.

If you can point to what specifically about my "reaction" to my lynch in Clue 2 leads you to believe I'm scum in another game, I would appreciate it.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

I have a question on strategy. When I get close to lynch, am I just supposed to shut up, stop talking, and cease scumhunting, all in order to make it seem less like I'm trying to "derail my own lynch"? I think this would be a useless play, personally. So characterizing my play to this point as an attempt to "derail" is not productive. Everyone tries to derail their own lynch, scum or town, and trying to paint it as an obvious scum play is frankly weak as hell.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Oh, wow, deadline tomorrow. I hate Day 1 claiming, but you guys are leaving me little choice.

Colnel Mustard, vigilante.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Good luck, town. For what it's worth, I'd rather you win than the mafia.

Wrong role to stick my neck out with, I guess.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Yeah, that's correct. My general plan was to appear just scummy enough that the scum would keep me around, and just townie enough that I wouldn't get lynched, and not kill until the final night. Oh well.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

I probably allowed my plan in this game to dictate my play in the others, and for that, I apologize. I've not done a very good job in these clue games.

[The Central Scrutinizer]

I still think I could have turned you all around if I hadn't been forced to claim by the deadline. I thought about claiming some "flying eyeball with lazer beams shooting out its ass" role, but decided not to.
