We get information from seeing who was against/for exploding a player, as well as role information from the lurker themselves. Same as what we get from blowing up an active player, really.

Why me? And why Max too?

I don't think it's that impossible to work out townies on day one...

Talk about giving yourself a get out of jail free card...

Which game was that, Bad Idea? Well, honestly, all I know is you apparently are a bit of a crazy player yourself. Most people I'd automatically be voting them for suggesting a policy lynch like Lynch all Lurkers...buut I still dunno with you. I still feel out of those 4 options blowing you up might be interesting.
its not ALL lurkers. just 1 or 2, to shake them up a bit. :P

. You seem to have neglected to mention that we will gain very little info ANYWAY due to the lack of a voting mechanism, and the fact the person deciding the lynch will be:
This is why we instate one. I thought this was already stated?

M4yh3m, we get less info on lurkers because if we policy lynch lurkers, its an argument of policy opinion, not opinion on the game state. Policy opinion is a lot easier to have as a null tell either way.

DGB: Of those 4, I say Tar. Max or M4yh3m is probably better though.

Also, what info do we get from a D1 lurker lynch? None? And then D2, we have no info so..... back to step A of killing a lurker? Nice plan.....
QFT

But people can still give opinions without voting, and DGB gives in to peer pressure. So, our opinions still matter.

M4yh3m- You for wanting to lurker lynch so bad. I guess I should revise my statement on those 4: BM for the same reason.

There's more than one lurker though (currently, anyway) so we'd still have information from which lurker is chosen and which aren't.

I guess I can sort of see your point though. A little.

I don't know; who's going to keep track of the votes? Not me, that's for sure.

I think just talking without voting is just as helpful really, as long as DGB bothers to read what we've got to say.

Let's see, it starts out with an insult, then go on to say things that I didn't say at all, you continue to make arguements against things I explicitly said I wasn't saying. It was a damn example, get over yourself, I was not saying I had any meta on you. I was saying assuming I thought this thing, I would post that I thought it, no question. I mean, most people would probably.
you aren't listening. My point which you just aren't getting is that when you post what you think, and it leaves alot to be desired, it not only makes you look scummy, but it WILL invoke questions like 'why do you think that?'. And btw, the insult was ironic. So chill-ax.

At this point the person I care most about convincing is DGB, as DGB is our current Queen.
Evidently. But could you be a bit more subtle about kissing her ass? 0.o
'Queen'? 'DGB seems to be helping that along already', 'good work DGB!'

Rofl. I see what you did thar.
Coron wrote: So in her case is would be 16/19. Also, this paragraph you fail to understand probability. Let's say there is a 5/6 chance I'm town, and if I'm town there is a 9/10 chance I'm right(note: number pulled out of a hat, no not literally BM, don't be dumb). That's still a 15/20 chance that I'm right. Since BM doesn't understand hypotheticals he probably won't understand this either. It's sad.
Ouch. An insult that wasn't even funny. I'm very disappointed Coron.
They
You
told me you were smart!
Those odds dont make for great reading. Assuming theres a 9/10 chance you're right, if town? I think you're being a tad optimistic. And EVEN THEN, the odds of your being right are only 75%. Not something id take for granted by any means. I think you just invalidated your own point. lol

I'm always two posts behind.

Armlx- why is wanting to kill lurkers bad? They hurt the town and, worse, they suck the fun out of the game. Plus, if they're scum it's really hard to catch them in the normal way, by analysis, because there is nothing to look at.

I'm not saying we should chase lurkers all game but I really think encouraging an atmosphere were people are afraid not to post can only be a good thing.

Its looking for the easy lynch. Once the scenario arrives everyone looks decently town but them, then you kill them. Until then its pretty wasteful.

He has a point here, you know. The 'good work' was also kind of patronising, I thought.

It seems less wasteful than killing active players.
Obviously if we have a good candidate for scum by then, DGB can kill them. But if it's been, like, a month and we don't have anyone, I'm gonna push for a lurkersplosion.

Why is BM not dead yet?

When catching up after being gone for so long (4 hrs), there was really one thing that made me laugh and that's BM's post. First he accuses Coron of having a stuttering problem, and when Coron defends himself he BM says something along the lines of "Sinking to insults now, are we?" I was just like, wtf, you started it.

Don't kill Tar, this is my first game with him and I would like it if he lived long enough to play it well (and me too).

BM- Haven't played with before as well, but I just don't like his posts. His continuous attacks on Coron is cluttering this thread (and Coron's attacks on him, but I find Coron to be more protown than BM)

Forbiddenlight- IDK, don't have too much of a read on

Wow... I disappear for a few hours and there are 3 new pages?! Holy posting Batman!

More seriously I get a town read from both BM and Coron through their argument, and don't think blowing up either of them is a good idea at this stage of the game.

I think Max is a good choice because he has said absolutely nothing, and disappeared as soon as people started calling him on it (now in all fairness to him that was only a few hours ago as well, and he can't be around all the time).

Tarhalindur doesn't seem like a terrible choice to me either given that he has had two posts that were completely without content, and has made a baseless accusation because of, according to him, IIoA.

I don't think Forbiddanlight is a good choice either because she is being active at least, and I don't get an overly scummy feeling from anything she has said so far.

So I think Max, or Tarhalindur is the best choice at this point.

Yes I agree, none of the reasons he gave for anything make any sense.

He's made it on my short list. You may now include him in your discussions of who you'd like blown up.
