Lifthrasil: Which would fit very well with a neutral third party role. Combined with you assumption that non-Gryffindor means non-Town, which, as I assumed might come from you being non-Town, this fits. ... So, you are non- or even anti-Town.
@others: what else do you need? Do you believe that this was another joke-claim?
@those who haven't read HP: Durmstrang is a foreign school that actually teaches the Dark Arts. Not only defense against them, like Hogwarts does. So, they are not part of the 'houses' system of Hogwarts and, while not an actual enemy, decidedly darkish.
Thanks for the refresher, I had no recollection. I think this
might be a joke, but I am becoming very concerned about all the changes of names (this is the third?). Even aside from the PMs, I think your conclusion that he is non-town seems to agree with my concerns stated before. (Are you copying me?).
The thing is, the sample PM doesn't say we have to kill neutrals, just enemies. Thus this is potentially a waste, but at least it isn't
town. +++++++++++++++++++++++
@GR: I get what you are saying, and I have seen town PRs lunched way too quickly. This is a potential issue. More on this later. If Agent is a
town PR, I hope he puts up an extremely good defense that blows us away.
As for the sudden shift, while I know that being eliminated is unfun, and while i am not 100% convinced of Agents culpability, I am willing to bet he's not town more than anyone else. Of course, if he is town, I'm targeting lift, and I think the rest ought to as well. I am split about D1 lunches, but the benefits as presented by the very experienced players seem to outweigh the cons.
IF we lose two players a day without getting scum, we go from 14 (D1)-12 (d2)-10(d3)-8(d4)-6(d5) at which point, with three scum, we have lost. If we have a neutral player or a SK, we have lost sooner if we fail to hit scum. Even if we get 2 baddies on the first night (like my last game) we can still lose (Pooka pocketed me into oblivion that game).
If we don't vote, we are 14D1, 13D2, 11D3, 9D4, 7D5, which--if we have yet to hit scum--leaves us at 4-3 and MYLO/LYLO (i forget which atm and can't be bothered to check).
If we have a SK, all bets are off and we lose by 14D1, 11D2, 8D3, 5 & lost by D4.
I don't wanna think about 2 SKs or lovers or any other potential complications yet.
>>Bottom line. Town has to hit scum or lose by D6 anyway. I have great aspirations that we can do this. Every confidence that we might.
Your "no vote" argument seems to favor the scum more than us town, unless you have a win condition of "must live" and you want as few lunched as possible. I think atm that any info is better than no info, as the alternative is D2, one fewer player, still no idea who to trust.
Your entire argument is based off of Agent being a PR or a cop being willing to ID himself on D2 to clear Agent. I don't see the later happening. ('Twould be foolish in the extreme...like putting mayo on peanut butter. Disgusting, I'd say, unless one was forced to do so.)
Anyway, let's not have any more whinging or chuntering about this, but accept that anything is better than nothing. There is a 1/14 chance that Agent is cop. 0.07%--very small compared to the chance he isn't cop (92.857%). Not knowing how many town PRs there are, i cannot say for certainty what the chance is that he has any PR.
If you are scum, I have this to say to you and your coterie: be done with your prating and flimflam--it isn't going to work. In fact, the conspicuous number of times that you have referred to how bad of a player you are or that your preferred playstyle is "to have fun regardless of winning" makes me sadly suspect you of being less town than you claim. It reminds me of my comment which was dismissed as an AtE last fall.
(If GR is scum,
#307 strikes me as coaching.
If he is not scum, this is just being helpful.)
(For those who don't know/remember,
AtE=Appeal To Emotion.)
I hope you have the perspicacity to join me in the democratic action of voting for someone.
In fact, typing this out has led me to stop mammering and:
@ZFR: I VOTE AGENT
