Mini 1046 - Murder in the Desert (Game Over!)

[Lowell]

vote parama

[Lowell]

unvote, vote slaxx

Step 1) attack lurkers
Step 2) back down when confronted
Step 3) overly-complain about lack of activity on page 4
Step 4) repeat

[Lowell]

Slaxx spends pages complaining that the lurkers haven't participated (in the first 24 hours), but has no problem putting a L-1 vote onto someone who is actually (sorta) trying. Okay.

[Lowell]

You've outwitted me with your double negatives. Touche.

[Lowell]

Both wagons are fine with me.

unvote, vote bub

[Lowell]

Prod recieved. Sorry folks. Feel free to hammer, anyone, and I'll catch up if I'm around tomorrow.

[Lowell]

vote slaxx

sure it's a wifom trap, but I'm willing to engage the possibility that bub actually just

is

that dumb.

Offhand I'll say the bob case doesn't make much sense to me (I find it unlikely the top two wagons yesterday were both scum), and I'll look at Xine since he's getting so much attention.

[Lowell]

Still here, will catch up in light of new events.

[Lowell]

When I reread Weapons and then Bub in ISO.

Parama earns Lowell's coveted "townpoints" for bothering to pay attention. I tend to agree with his read, and the weapons wagon had a lazy feel to it anyway.

[Lowell]

xvart, what do you think of WOMC?
boberz, what do you think of Slaxx?
Lowell, what do you think of Xine?

Xine is scum. I read back to the original case and I'm sold that the interaction between her and bub is damning, and the tracker claim doesn't impress. Still I agree that since we're more or less in control so far, it's dumb to lynch her yet in the offchance that she's telling the truth.

In other news, weapons and demon are both town, but only demon earns more coveted "townpoints"... weapons just got lucky his role PM bailed him out.

I'm starting to waver on slaxx. He's been useful of late, more or less. I'd like to persue a wagon that isn't weapons/slaxx/xine today, but if I have to choose I'm staying with slaxx. I'll look back through.

[Lowell]

I just noticed bub was a roleblocker. tracker claim looks worse.

[Lowell]

Cute.

The other scum had a power, so it would seem likely he's not the only one. Quit hasslin' me.

[Lowell]

A couple of pages ago Xvart tried the "oh well, sorry i'm not being more helpful, good luck town" quasi-quit for sympathy. The last two pages he sees a glimmer of hope and his tone has slowly changed. He's a good lynch.

fos xvart

, with intent to vote as soon as I check the votecount.

[Lowell]

vote xvart

back to lynch-1.

[Lowell]

So, xvart somehow has fewer votes than last time I checked. huh.

[Lowell]

Lowell, you haven't made one attempt to scumhunt all game. Just throwing votes around and giving little side notes. I'm not liking this.

We're not going to get along then. Sorry, it's not intentional.

How's this. Xvart is scum. Guy was at lynch-1, claimed VT, and somehow isn't dead. Make this happen and we'll talk tomorrow.

[Lowell]

The Person I tracked came to see me. Would you like me to say who you are?

I wouldn't. Though I'm sure proving that you are in fact a tracker actually proves anything.

[Lowell]

EBWOP:

I'm NOT sure that proving...... actually proves anything ABOUT YOUR ALIGNMENT.

(Man I must be drunk today)

[Lowell]

VT. I'll need two skills.

[Lowell]

EBWOP: I'm an idiot.

Just vanilla for me, please.

[Lowell]

Seriously dudes, quit deciding I'm scum when I'm not around. Story of my life.

I'll have limited or no access this weekend, but will try to get something together by tomorrow. Speak now if there's something you specifically want included.

[Lowell]

what does your claim mean?
why does a dead roleblocker make my claim less valid?
why should we believe you are town?

My claim is VT.
Dead roleblocker meant I found your powerrole less town, as scum have powerroles.
I'm literally as pro-town as I've ever been in any game I've played.

[Lowell]

Mmk. As things stand, I'm not going to convince you to change your mind, so I'm fine with a Lowell lynch.

Hangin' me out to dry!

vote socrates

as the only other viable option.

Also to answer whatever question, the "two skills" thing was me being a dumbass and not realizing the PM was given in post two.

[Lowell]

BTW this will sound dumb but 878 convinced me bob is town. Kid is more clueless than I am. If I had to guess (and I do) I'd go with soc/slaxx as the scumteam. Slaxx being tracked (again, assuming that to be true) and not making a kill should mean nothing. Considering the attention he'd already garnered from bub being an idiot, I doubt he'd have been sent on a mission of MUUUURRRRDDDDEERRR.

[Lowell]

I was trying to paraphrase is what I mean, then realized it was already there. What's your question?

[Lowell]

Okay DH, one for you. Explain how slaxx's being tracked proves anything.

And I never give up. But I've been lynched about a billion times before, so it's rarely a surprise. Still, in this case, you happen to be wrong.
