In the Court of the Gods (Game Over)

[DTMaster]

Yeah, because you're more focused on "who the tracker was" days ago and now you're focused on setup numbers rather then commenting on me or FF or Courvis or Farside or DGB or Hito or Equinox or Andruis.

[DTMaster]

Or Nopoint, and anyone who I missed.

[Benmage]

Yep. Me, alone, not commenting on.....everything???? Is a huge scumslip.

[DTMaster]

Its what you're focusing on. Like for example: Why is finding out who the tracker was more important then the track result?

Also DGB you ignored Equinox's question in addition to mine. Equinox's might have gotten lost in the hyper activity.

[Equinox]

Guh.

I get a super duper obvtown read from DTMaster's Day 1 networking scheme. That thing is too convoluted and too pro-town to be a scum move, seriously. Except we lynched DeathRowKitty and AlmasterGM in succession like a bunch of idiots.

Since the focal point is the latter half of the town hider gambit:

(All times are PDT, suckers.)

DTMaster claimed a target on populartajo on March 2.
DrippingGoofball started calling populartajo scum on March 8.
DrippingGoofball asks why populartajo died (via posting his null and scum reads) on March 10, 12:47 PM.
DrippingGoofball asks where DTMaster hid on March 10, 7:34 PM.
DTMaster posits scum killed populartajo to get to DTMaster, and DTMaster clears nopointinactingup on March 10, 11:01 PM.
Three minutes later, DTMaster rescinds his town hider claim, March 10, 11:04 PM.

I can see where the threat is coming from, and with DTMaster not posting between March 6 and March 10, he couldn't announce any new targets. I can also see the line of thinking behind DTMaster-scum killing populartajo.

But I'm going to stick my neck out here and say:

DTMaster is not scum.

You see that martyr card he's playing? It's

sincere

, and not just because of the self-vote. DTMaster is pushing his own lynch, and he's saying things knowing he's digging his own grave. That's town mentality. Scum are in a rough position right now with a well-shooting vigilante and coordination in a significantly large segment of town; their goal would be to defend as hard as possible, not go down in a blazing fire of glory. DTMaster's posting today does not look like an AtE to defend; it's an appeal to die.

I am not lynching DTMaster, and I will not support a lynch of DTMaster.

Now that I've burned my eyes out reading DrippingGoofball's sea of blue and DTMaster's large iso, I'm going to go gouge them out reading Corvuus (for reals).

Preview edit:

Waiting on a VC.....why? Is this the newest slip?

What, you can't count? Come on, it's not hard, and you'll get it done faster than waiting for zoraster to come 'round.

Seriously. While you're waiting, make a comment or something. BE USEFUL. IT'S NOT ALL USELESS. You being a defensive prick does nothing, and it annoys the living shit out of me because I don't know if you're a scum prick or a useless town prick.

[Benmage]

The track result seemed obviously fake...if dgb wants u dead say so.....I don't need to be swindled like some noone.

I'm away....all this is from my phone. Its a hassel to look things up.

[Andrius]

Exactly. Hito was the obv kill. Tajo was lynch bait, vig-bait, even.

And ur reasoning for why they didn't?

I think I know why. But I will only know for sure if DTM flips scum.

If DTM flips scum, we pretty much have the game wrapped up.

QFT
Srs bsns, if DTM is scum this game is over.
Rewards has this down!

Here you go, then, an unofficial vote count:

DTMaster (5) - DrippingGoofball, Andrius, Nobody Special, farside22, DTMaster
nopointinactingup (2) - hitogoroshi, Benmage
Benmage (1) - nopointinactingup
farside22 (1) - Corvuus

With 12 alive, it's 7 to lynch.

Comments, then?

Except he's not, so now you're being complacent. I sure hope your temple has a contingency plan.

[Andrius]

My contingency plan is shooting scum.
Which is FAR better than anyone else outside the temple has done.
Don't give me that crap, Equinox.
So who ARE you willing to lynch?
Inquiring minds (and pineapple launchers) want to know.

[Andrius]

Comments? NS and DTM are scum on the scum wagon.
I'd support a nopoint lynch second to DTM.

[Lost Butterfly]

Which is FAR better than anyone else outside the temple has done.

YES WE'RE ALL SO BAD

[Equinox]

Don't give me that crap, Equinox.

I'm asking myself the same question, hence all the reading right now.

[Lost Butterfly]

Yeah, I think DTM is town here again. I think. 2479's a good post.

[Andrius]

Fine.
I can settle to lynch nopoint.
But I'll still push for a DTM-pineapple-to-the-face tonight in the Temple of Rewards, so.

[Lost Butterfly]

NP looks vaguely town recently though

[Lost Butterfly]

Admittedly he only decided to play like a non idiot when he came under pressure, but that seems like something you'd do as either alignment.

[Andrius]

You know, Faraday, shooting people from SAIII has seemed to work pretty well so far for this here temple.
You feeling lucky?

predit: Faraday do you have ANY scumreads? Like, anyone AT ALL? Because all I'm hearing from you and Equinox is "sheep tracker, sheep bus driver; oh wait they don't exist back to mah town-reads".

^bitterness that is usually confined to the Temple

Sure, I'm not against a Benmage shot at all.

[Equinox]

What do you expect me to do when information is claimed? I didn't even sheep bus driver, by the way, I had to sit and think about that one before deciding I wanted to hear from Corvuus first. Even just now, I had to go read @(%# pages to come to that decision, and I've been agonizing over it. Don't fucking write it off as just sheeping. (I'm playing like an idiot, I know, but I'm trying.)

OH AND I'M FUCKING SORRY I DECIDED TO SHEEP A FUCKING CLAIMED TRACKER. WHAT A TERRIBLE PLAYER I MUST BE TO THINK YOU MIGHT BE TELLING THE TRUTH.

[Equinox]

Protip: Don't try to write when raging.

Even just now, I had to go read @(%# pages to come to that decision

about DTMaster

, and I've been agonizing over it.

[Lost Butterfly]

IT'S EASIER THAN WHEN DRUNK.

[Lost Butterfly]

that characterisation of my/eqinox's play is so fucking stupid

[Equinox]

I'm leaving for a couple of hours. If Corvuus comes in the interim, make sure he addresses whether or not Fishythefish asked him to claim and whatnot, I'd hate to miss him and wait another 2 days before hearing from him again.

Also, if anyone drops a hammer before I'm through with Corvuus, you will hear words and fiery rage, I guarantee you.

[DTMaster]

I refuse to lynch Nopoint. I'm awaiting words from the Courvis angle, the Benmage angle (once he gets a computer), the DGB. The temple gets my blood or Courvis blood. Nopoint is off the table completely. Bring hito and L-1 me up. Pending questions will come into play. DGB can assign double votes/BP tomorrow and I expect questions to be answered.
