Unvote
You joined on page 11. It was pretty clearly under 10. People said something to that effect just about every page due to replacement issues.
Your motives were questionable, that's all. At the moment, it didn't seem like you actually believed arakorn was scum, so I thought I'd apply some pressure.
I'm starting to wonder about Arakorn, though. He seems to be going out of his way to go with the flow, which would fit in with the idea that he could be newbie thrown into scum position. A newbie in a town position might do the same, but maybe with less likelihood? I dunno, any thoughts on this? It's starting to be fairly clear that Arakorn has little interest in reading through the game, maybe even regardless of time constraints. I'm considering changing my vote. Depends on what you do, Arakorn.
Arakorn said he'd read the game next week after IRL schoolwork was over...
I sense a possible scum-shift from Sikario8 to Arakorn :\. Gorckat switched over to Sikario8 quickly when I pointed out the votes on Arakorn were weak, neko is pondering switching to Arakorn, Gorgon adds vote on for pretty shaky reasoning...
I'm sure that not all of those are winning reads, but it is possible some of them are. Then again, Arakorn could be scum.
I'm happy with my vote on DR at deadline though and still encourage others to vote him -- you all are voting Arakorn saying he has contributed nothing -- what about Dead Rikumaru???
Do not lynch me.

Yes, after Tuesday/Wednesday I will have more time again. For the rest of this weekend though, until late Sunday, I will be away, ie I don't even have access to internet. But I promise that I will read whatever new posts has been made by then.
And just a note regarding my newbieness, I've been involved in a couple of games, the last one was me being one of 3 mafia's and not a single mafia was killed in that game. It is true that my skills can be considered noobiness, but I do have experiences from playing these games. Ask the mod or Pra though, been playing with them. (I am known for not being so contributive though...)
I'm here.
Had problems at work this week and very little sleep.
Last night I slept more than 12 hours.
Leaving for shiatsu classes now.
Checking back my games at night.
DR
[i]"Dead Rikimaru is... well, dead. When the lights came back on, he was found turned inside-out, somehow. Disgusting, really. Anyway, he was "Dead Dead Rikimaru" (Self-fulfilling Prophecy)".
-The Scummies 2006 - Red Carpet and Ceremony![/i]
So you've been mafia before... I see... there goes that theory...
That would mean that you're going with the flow not because you don't know what to do, but rather, just to try to appease everyone. I might have to find this game you were in.
How convenient that you'll be available after deadline.
DR, you had better have something profound to say tonight. Not moving my vote.
something is seriously wrong with this game. deadline is tomorrow and i'm one vote away from being lynched because of votes places by Sir Wario who hasn't posted here since Wed Dec 19, 2007 2:49 pm and Archaist who hasn't posted since Sun Dec 23, 2007 10:50 am.
i could claim God the Creator and it wouldn't make any difference because they wouldn't be around to unvote.
I'm wondering if Tar and soupfly will be keeping their votes where they're at (same for Pra, but apparently he still hasn't gotten logged in.
I believe we have less than 6 hours before deadline is up. Did we ever find out what happens if there's a tie? If there's a tie, would that be a no-lynch? This would be important to know, considering DR still needs to place a vote, and it will likely not be on himself.
As Dead Rikimaru attempted to leave for Shiatsu class... however...
neko2086, Guardian and Gorckat stood up.
"Scum!" Roars Guardian.
Rikimaru turns bleary eyed. "I'm tired guys..."
"And now you're under arrest." To everyone's surprise soupfly runs across and rugby tackles Rikimaru. This had the intended effect, this being to leave Rikimaru sprawled upon the floor. it also had an unintended effect, this being that Riki's neck was snapped in two by its rather unusual collision course with the wall.
"Was I meant to do that guys?"
"Sure looks like it..."
Gorckat wanders over and picks up a card dropped by the now very much true to his namesake Dead Rikimaru. The card reads;
'Veneto's of Valencia - the finest wine you'll ever see! £10 off you next purchase!'
"Ok, not so good..."
"On the other hand", noted Guardian, this card saying ' Identity Card of Syndicate - Mafia Godfather ' might be more of a clue...
"ZOMG!!!" shouts mikeburnfire, a newcomer to the town.
"THERE'S, like, a DEAD GUY!! In the ROAD! And there's BLOOD!"
Gorckat runs over.
"NOOO! GUARDIAAAAN!"
Sobbing and weeping, the townspeople sing the time honoured songs of Valencia and bring out Guardian's faithful horse Bavieca. They set him upon it, and even in deth he rides the streets to bring hope to the townsfolk...
Guardian, TOWNIE, is dead. Weep for evermore people...
P.S. Quiz Question; Who did this really happen to in Valencia?

Okay...some assumptions on the vote moves here at the end (post 350 is an arbitrary start point, looking a little further back and at content more deeply will be done later)
-if Gorgon were scum w/ Riki, he would have voted soup or me.
-if Arakorn were scum w/ Riki, he would have voted soup
-if soup were scum w/ Riki, he would have voted Arakorn
-if Tarhalindur were scum w/ Riki, he would have voted soup, Arakorn or Guardian
Those are pretty broad and assume no bussing and an intent to preserve the godfather, and there's more to be looked at based on who avoided Riki/Sikario earlier and such, but I have to head off to lunch, so I'll mull it over when I get a chance.
Whoa whoa whoa. Let's not get too jumpy, eh? Arakorn could very well have been a scumwagon, and I have issues for Meme to address as well, but that's a tad bit brash. Besides, what about Gorgon? Not even an FOS?
So Tar, I was going to ask you why you weren't fond of the Arakorn wagon, just before deadline, but that explains it. I would like to know, however, what you didn't like about the DR wagon. I would also like to know what made you vote guardian.
Meme, I've notice that throughout D1, you had absolutely nothing to say about Sikario/DR. Any particular reason?
Thank you for fixing the vote counts, Gorckat. Somehow I'd missed Arakorn's unvote in the last one I did. I expect much more participation from Arakorn today, and perhaps an explanation why he did not place a vote before deadline.
I'm assuming that mikeburnfire is replacing SirWario... so...
What's up with Pra and Archaist? I believe Archaist was the only one who did not have some sort of excuse for not being here.

Vote: MeMe
LOCK ON: MeMe
Please be specific as to what time period you're referencing with the phrase "after last night": the end of Day 1 or actual
Night
1? Pretty important that you're clear.

Not true. Witness post #284
MeMe wrote:168, made me laugh. He claims to have found "Nothing. Absolutely nothing." on Sikario...seeing as Sik's weird three-post SirWario rant had just occurred, I'm rather surprised he didn't at least comment on
that
. Regardless, Sikario hadn't been silent and I found a few items to note -- claiming absence of stuff to examine came off as less than genuine.
