Ah, ok. *checks* Yes, that fits, accusation answered.Haylen wrote:PatResults didn't replace out. Vel missed his outting in the queue because he editted his post rather than say it in a new post, so he was already out way before he received a role.
Goodposting. My vote was more intended as an example of a vote that could actually spark discussion. I was planning to make it ever since the mod made the post about the replacement. It would be a valid vote if I could back it up with quotes showing that PatResults prefers playing town over scum, but as it is, it's pretty useless. It would probably have been better if I took the actual other posts into account, allthough the only actual suspicious action I've seen so far came from demongob, and I felt an L-2 vote might be too much pressure too early on a newer player.jmurph3 wrote:In other news, I don't know if I fully follow your reasoning, Michel. Speculating on a player replacing out for any reason is generally not useful. Not only does Haylen claim that he didn't replace out, but to follow your own logic, PatResults could just as easily have replaced out because he didn't want to be a townie.
I have played with Haylen at least once before when she was town, and she got into heavy trouble for appealing to emotion (among others). I think it's pretty likely her post comes from her being mislynched for those reasons a number of times, though I haven't actually checked.jmurph wrote:the "About Haylen" post. Telling us what is and isn't a scumtell for you is a waste for me, and, personally, a confusing way to start off the game.
Whether or not it comes from previous games or not, it would be the perfect ruse for her as scum to throw that out there to start with so that later on in the game, she can point back to that post as concrete evidence. Basically, my problem with it is that it's setting up a potential WIFOM argument later on.MichelSableheart wrote:I have played with Haylen at least once before when she was town, and she got into heavy trouble for appealing to emotion (among others).

L-2 is two votes away from lynch (Lynch minus 2). Two other players voted demongob before you did, so after your vote, only two more players voting would have been a lynch. I was wondering if the fact that it brought demongob pretty close to a lynch had played a role in your decission to vote him.benyally wrote:MichelSableHeart, I apologise for my slowness, but could you rephrase your questions? What does L-2 mean? Oh and this may be just general laziness but I speedread through peoples' posts and may skip others-- which might explain me not figuring out the timing of posts. Of course as the game gets further in, I will take time to analyse people's motives more. That is, if I survive that long :/

Just to offer fair warning, it's better to be up front about what you're thinking because that gives you a chance to defend yourself and your views, whereas by "hiding behind the scenes," you will almost always be seen as more scummy than those that post.bemyally wrote:I have nothing else to say. I'm careful now with what I post. Because I know that people will simply quote me and pick apart what I have to say. So now I will only post when I deem necessary.
I wouldn't call this lurking, by the way. I'm being very careful now. And I'll know not to speedread. Just think of me as someone hiding behind the scenes.
