Unvote to gauge activity, I wonder if activity sucks bad enough that claimed scum won't be lynched.

Oh shit, this might actually be a problem.


So there is actually no way we're able to win this unless 2 people suddenly stop being inactive?

Wow I kinda assumed I'd been replaced after forgetting about this game for two weeks. Will read up

crap I'm in trouble now, so far both of us have always won together in MM's games eh?
sorry about that, good luck.
GL, everyone else too.

Yeah I've only read day 6 but it seems fairly conclusive.

Vote /

Ok, this is totally not suspicious. Conveniently turning up at this time?

Well MM just sent me a prod

Do you really think I've been reading and just not posting for two months?

That's right folks, I actually did something.

Then do a vote count!

Yeah... so I'll re-read and try to make sense of it all.

To be continued...

I admit Minister Masket also had to prod me to remembering that I have obligations besides Finals.

This storm of counter-claims, while not confusing, is pure WiFoM. Unfortunately, I only know one person I can trust: ace1217. Half of everyone else is lying, so I need to tread cautiously in case we are close to a scum victory.

/'s behavior has been very erratic today. He revised his potential night tracks when contested. But, he cited suspicious vote hopping by nagerous.

/ wrote:nagerous, You were one of the first to vote drench on the second day, bandwagoning as soon as a case was put together, (you claimed he was the scummiest player in your opinion all game) being a long time mafia player, you would of course realized that bandwagoning drench if hypothetically a scummate would result in less suspicion on you, but the moment that drench fake claimed, you unvoted, this was a window of opportunity to save a scummate for later.
After drench voted to pressure me, you immediately hopped the wagon, there was no basis, and the wagon was being led by the one who in your own words "peaked your scumdar all game".

/ switched quickly between nagerous and icedagger, but because he believes both are scum. Both have voted for lurkers, as have I and many others, so that is a nonissue. Despite my dubious record, I feel I must compare their supposed night actions.

Night 1: nag- AceArtimis->pmchugh . /- Flores->____
Night 2: nag- Drench->______ . /- Iliad->____
Night 3: nag- spiesr->Drench . /- Drench->____
Night 4: nag- Nzen->________ . /- Spiesr->Snorri1234
Night 5: nag- Snorri1234->___ . /- Icedagger->____

The first night conforms to what we know and I expect. I don't really like the second night for either claim as both seem to be random, even though nagerous seems to have found a power role. Nagerous' potential third action fits what we know exactly again. However, /'s target makes more sense as Drench had promised to bestow a power on someone. This falls in deep doubt because - as mentioned - spiesr only saw pmchugh. Occam's razor discourages believing a mafia roleblock, but it isn't impossible. I can't imagine why a tracker would watch me, a claimed lover. /'s supposed choice makes some sense; he can confirm a potenial power role or out a falseclaim. Last night looks random again for both.

/'s targets for 3 & 4 make sense to me, as each follows players who promised to act. Nagerous' targets look nice retrospectively, but that's it. He doesn't follow up on an ambiguous power role on night two, nor 'did' he test Drench's falseclaim. He says he trusted him after night two, but why? The fact that Drench didn't target anyone does not imply anything about his alignment.

I am forced to choose between two suspicious players. Sheepofdumb backs nagerous, but scum are going to rally today. / has a nearly full bandwagon, but I can't tell whether quiet players springing to a single target are scum or just prodded.
Forced to drink, I vote nagerous. I want a bit clearer evidence (or reasoning) before I seal our collective fate.

Two trackers and two Belkars and a scum claim...

Belkar makes more sense as a bomb than a tracker to me. His tracking skills are worthless and he's vindictive and homicidal.

Two trackers isn't that damning... I suppose it's possible.

I would vote /, but that would end the day and I'd like to give the others that were prodded a chance to re-read and post something.

Nzen, what are you smoking?

/ has all but claimed scum.

My tracking stories correspond with those who I tracked's stories. / also slipped up with the spiesr fake tracking and got counter-claimed.

You'll be who I push against tomorrow, granted if I survive the ngith

The tracking a claimed lover is complete skimming from me, but remember quite often - one lover is mafia, the other is town

Indeed. I would also like to see people actually post something solid instead of just something like:
"Read back. Vote this person"

This is why I called icedagger suspicious, because he just turned up and voted.

now, I am taking alot from skimming here, as I kinda forgot about this before the prod lol and thats alot to go back and read... but from what I can tell / is pretty clearly scum

vote /

if anyone has a reason not (a good reason) please say so as i probably missed the post about it

Interesting, hmmm i have a few more things to say about this game, but it's a shame a can't, it just wouldn't be proper for strategy's sake, oh well, good game so far.

I think it was the whole confessing guilt, editing his claim and self-voting thing that swung it for me.

I have to say though, this is completely out of character for /. He wouldn't normally melt down like this at all

I'm not attacking your vote, which was sensible and completely right. Rather, the ninja-way you did it.

Tracked Off

The elf Cale had been one of the town's most useful allies, more often then not assuming the role of unofficial leader, we aware of the dangers such a position brought. However...with the nefarious Godfather dead, surely the evil drawn members were unable to decide to a kill? That was the general consensus until Cale's body was found the following morning, his skull burned from the inside out with rather generous amounts of acid. This could only be the work of Xykon...the town's work was far from over.

nagerous - Cale (Tracker) has been killed!
(Picture unavailable due to Photobucket logging me out, and details forgotten )

Day Seven Begins!

Yeah, figures it wasn't me. I'm more likely to get endgamed. Plz kill me scum. I promise I will only mortally wound you.

Well that was predictable, good luck

I just realized that if we had been really paying attention, we could have lynched / on day four. Just like a mystery novel, the essential clue was given earlier, then dismissed:

Minister Masket wrote:As the second night descends, we will accompany the primary antagonist of our story. Not much can be said of his character, other than his trademark hat that strikes fear into his enemies. Pleased with the results of his assassin the night previous, he decided to indulge in a bit of DIY. Being lazy, his town target was chosen purely at random. After just 36 seconds, it was over. On the way back, he was certain there were a pair of eyes following his movements...
AceArtemis has been killed!
Day 3 Begins!

That was on page 22. Day four began five pages later.

So drench is bad. The description that the post shows seems to match drench's claimed character however this seems to match him being scum. Vote Drench
I am Dr Hobo - Town Watcher.
(ga7) watched Iliad on Night 1 and / on Night 2. No-one visited them.

Of course, I didn't really give credence to anything spiesr said until scum killed him.

Ahem.

Ahum.
