Okay let's get something done, I've pretty much contributed jack shit so far, so it's about time I did.
First page looks same old pointless stuff. Dr.B's vote on Tyhess seems like's he's looking for any old reason to sling on votes, I presume however it's still more random jokey. The edit post issue crops up - until its' pointed it's in his sig.
Blackstrike in 28 looks to promote discussion = good. However WTF!

I would say that in this game, a townie lynch is almost as good as a scum lynch.
I would say a better plan is to catch the cult not lynch townies!
Dr.B wrote:
a) How much of an effect would it have on balance if the cult leader was the day one lynch?
b) How many townies are likely in the game? There need to be enough to give the cult a chance along with power roles to help us get the cult/mafia.
I also think it's likely we have a vig, to help catch cultists.
Therefore:
I think that townies should try get killed by the mafia. It hurts the cult.
a) It would be damn good to get rid of the cult. Sod balance.
b) Either 5, 6 OR 7. Why do we want to give the cult a chance? Cult is as bad as scum if not worse.
Christ man I wonder what others make of this post. I'm reading and making notes chronologically so my thoughts will appear before I've read others.
Curious poses possibility he's the jester. pwanye echoes my thoughts on Blackstrike "odd".

Plus, remember that even if the vanilla lynches hurt the cult, they help the mafia. There are two enemies we need to consider.
Excatly. Seems the Doctor's happy to let that one slide. Liking Volkan, Curious likewise, Flameaxe votes Dr.B stressing everything appears to be from a cultish point of view, I'd say he looks more pro-mafia but meh.
Interesting that pwayne sticks up for Dr.B somewhat

I don't agree with using pressure to disuade conversation. This type of game is new to most of us. We ought to encourage all the discussion and sharing of ideas we can prior to the game really starting. If Dr. BS has a point I want to hear it, not discourage him by using bully tactics.
I happen to like pressure votes and bullying tactics, if it makes scum slip up great huh, you don't?
Dr.B's vote on Flameaxe seems more OMGUS than anything.
Trojan signs in, seems reasonable, I still think we should be looking towards catching scummy players aka Dr.B at this point. 52/53 strikes me however as he's looking to create pressure on MoS for lurking when as I pointed out I was pretty much doing the same thing. Tyhess votes Dr calls him weird and then he wants to edit posts.
Continued defence of the Dr from pwayne

I am failing to follow the logic behind the Dr. Blackstrike bandwagon. Some think he is too culty and some think he is too scummy. Some did so in order to stimulate discussion despite the fact that the doc seems to be talking alright without stimulation.
Trojan and Tyhess seem wishy washy over Blackstrike, maybe the Dr's too much of an easy target here, best keep an eye on both. Wishy Washy, lack of curiousity is scummy. Rump-Wat says he'll re-read I wonder if he does.
Not understanding the votes for Flameaxe, he's giving me a decent vibe, i agree lynching vanilla's is not good period. However thing here is the vanilla townies should be good enough not to have to claim, i.e not be in danger of being lynched. Flame has four votes hmm . . . I find myself agreeing with MoS's first post. Trojan still seems very un-curious in 89. ac1983 - comments that Dr.B is pro-town but flawed, why not scummy but flawed? (I'm sick of flawed players escaping due to stupidity, he's just as much chance of being scum as the rest of us)

Just for the record, my vote on Flameaxe was and is totally random.
Does this not strike anyone as odd with the bandwagon on him? Seems he's okay with it.
Oh great here comes the wonderful reasoning.
rump wrote:
Well, I didn't unvote because he did seem kind of suspicious. But, he doesn't seem so suspicious now.
Unvote: Flameaxe
Tell me Rump who do you find scummy now then?
acfan I'd also like more from you asweell, other than Rump's seems kinda scummy.
Several posts relating to newbs, Curious still after response to his questions, valid. Avoidance of questions = scummy. Tyhess does finally in 128.
Ok to finish early good list - Flameaxe, Curious, Volkan. Not really any vibe - MoS, Oman, ac1983fan, Trojan Horse. Not liking a lot probably due to newbishness/scummyness - RumpWat, Tyhess. Not liking even less - pwayne66, Dr.B.
Vote Pwayne66
Mainly because he jumped to the Doctor's defence - I can see scum doing this if Doctor's town - he was incredibly scummy first three or so pages and doesn't want us to assert pressure and bullying tactics to catch scum - I see that as very anti-town whatever the method of game. Seperately I've seen a lot of scum do them list things, ppl think they look great, so scum do the odd one liners to impress. Anyways all for now.
