HijacK: I am fining your accusations outrageous and foolish.

First - it's day 1 and you're hanging on straws.
Second - your reasons have little logic, especially in yogloth's case. Lynch a townie? Really? I see it more as information hunt and I believe that should have been logical.
Third - are you implying I'm stupid? Get out. Now.

HijacK: There are many ways to play as scum and given the chance to be one I would've played the exact same way in such a manner to get lynched but have the other scum on my vote wagon to gain them credibility.

adaliabooks: Hey, CSPVG suggested a list, I'm just providing.

adaliabooks: Right now, you and yogsloth are the only two who are standing out, for good or bad.

adaliabooks: As it's day 1, straws are all we have to go on. I'm trying to make the best of the information available and see what happens.

adaliabooks: I don't see that my logic is that flawed, yogsloths post could easily be an attempt to hurry us along and to start placing votes, presumably without fully thinking them through. I'm not saying that I believe this is the case, just that it's a possibility.

adaliabooks: All I'm implying is that you are the only other player who has of yet really drawn my attention. Whether your new 'persona' is an attempt to prolong your life or whether it's just a genuine change to the way you play I don't know, but it bears scrutinizing.

mrkgnao: Suppose he were scum and suppose he were not stupid, what would you want him to do? Play as he did in the last two games? We all know he likely wouldn't have survived a day. .

mrkgnao: How would you "have the other scum on my vote wagon to gain them credibility"?
It's day #1 and under the assumption that game #22 was the exception, scum can probably only talk at night.
So you would have been unable coordinate that with them and would have had to depend on their own intelligence (which I don't think is your style).

HijacK: Yes, because acting without thinking of one's intentions will surely lead the town to victory.

Then be my guest and do the same mistakes as before.

And when were you ever successful with this type of "information"?

Fully thinking? Here you are hanging on straws and you accuse him making us not think? Funny.

I take on personas tot est people. But that is besides the point. Never mind them. Keep it like that. I like attention. Gives me more accurate data.

adaliabooks: And look, a bite.

dedoporno: Off-topic: Does anyone else have problems with Barefoot Essentials's hotkey combos? I'm forced to write the format tags manually when I quick-respond, since the combinations don't seem to work (chrome).

Krypsyn: Amusing.

HijacK: What I did bite is your flawed reasoning. But don't mind that. I just took a good chunk of it out. As for the HijacK you know, please! You amuse me. You literally just implied you're not stupid, yet you take a pose that you even remotely know me.
Tell me, you know the Cretan paradox?

flubbucket: So HijacK you think Sage's braless assessment was not supported with facts?

flubbucket: Do you think she's simply stuffing the thread with tissue thin posts in order to look town/look involved?

flubbucket: Or is this kind of padding the norm for Day One??

flubbucket: ( . Y . ) <------------------------ I don't know what that is.

CSPVG: One has not commented in two days because one has not really felt the need to, and did not want to post something akin to, "Hello, I'm still here."

I have little to add to any of the current discussions, the most pressing of which seems to be the possibility that HijacK may be posting in a tone so far perceived as less bullish. There is, of course, the possibility that he may be hiding behind a veneer of civility to survive as a scum player; or there may also be the chance that he has simply decided to act in what is perceived as a more civil manner for the time being, and that the somewhat harsher HijacK may present himself later.

Having said this, I don't really know what line of inquiry to take. While it seems to have been decided by the group that we are somehow out of RVS, nothing has really recommended itself that would usually indict this change. No one has made a silly slip, or voted for an already fast moving wagon, or some such incident.

One is also baffled by the fact that you all did not answer flubbucket's question about the possibility of me being scum. While it was posed in a somewhat joking manner, I thought it would have received at least some sort of response.

Perhaps now would be a good time to draw up a top three scummiest list. Thoughts on this, my fellow scum hunter?

One would place trentonlf on the top of such a list, purely for writing the sentence, "If it was a true rap battle Vanilla Ice would win as he was a rap artist in his younger years and was actually decent." Actually decent? You, sir, need to reassess much of your life if you hold such opinions *makes the sign of the cross*.

adaliabooks: It doesn't really matter if my reasoning is flawed, everyone's reasoning is at the moment because we have nothing to go on and are extrapolating information from the tiniest comments made by other players. The possibility I've suggested is entirely possible, despite what you seem to think. I'm just trying to excite reactions and see what I gain from them.

I know that whatever façade you were trying to present seems to have slipped and you've returned to playing more like you did the last two games. Ironically, that makes me less suspicious of you.

adaliabooks: The possibility of 4 scum was purely working the numbers. JMich said last game it was usually 25% of total players, which is 13, so 4.25. But the mafiascum wiki kind of suggests it's rare to get more than 3, hence why I said 3 or 4.
