Kairyuu: In your post 114, all the options you presented suggested that I was scummy for some reason or another. None of them reflected the possibility that I could be town who misread your post. Probably because you don't consider that possible, as I've been saying for pages. That's how you tried to box me in.
Kairyuu, above wrote:The original point was a small matter. However, it did not stay limited to that for long.
You've argued that I tried to step out of the spotlight (which I've addressed), and more recently you've said that I defended hp. If there was anything else, I missed it, please elaborate. (I've also addressed the "defending" hp thing, which is pretty silly).
Also, I see your point about persistent inactivity this game, that's reasonable. However, I really don't think large quote wars help, unless there's something of value to take sides on. Whether that's the case here is another thing we're contending.
-----------------------
We are probably close to deadline, so we should try to narrow down the best play for today. Here are my impressions on each player:
forbiddanlight
: Hard to read one way or the other, because there's not much content. This needs to change.
hp [leaves]
: Seems clear he either had the note or received it from a scumbuddy. So it all comes down to the likelyhood of scum being able to daytalk, and if we believe that he forgot to check the note until under pressure. I'd say he's slightly more likely to be scum than town, but I couldn't say with confidence either way. Lynching him might be a good way to generate information.
Kairyuu
: I can see him as town or scum, to be honest. Not too sure.
Kinetic
: Seems aware and protown.
MafiaSSK
: Would strike me as scum, except he has a meta of being this way. /agree with Tar, investigate/vig would be a good solution.
populartajo
: He looks a like a player who hypothesizes in the thread, which has caused some people to jump on him for his ideas. I thought this was benign at first, but his waffling on hp and the note issue looks suspicious. He also hasn't contributed to the discussion as much as I'd like, most of his time is spent defending himself.
Malthusis
: Is floating underneath the radar, for the most part. This needs to change.
Isacc
: Not sure if the tendency to avoid firm conclusions (that Tar pointed out) is necessarily scummy, since I often do that as town by virtue of not being that sure. He has been a little opportunistic, though, which makes me a little suspicious.
Tarhalindur
: Not sure I buy his logic regarding myself or Isacc completely, but otherwise seems protown.
veerus
: I don't view his statement regarding safeclaims to be a slip, since it's reasonable to assume the presence of safeclaims in a game run by Nat. His posts on hp might be of interest later, since he seemed eager to redirect attention back to hp after people were discussing Nat etc. a little more (see posts 242 and 293 for examples). However, this could be a null tell, who knows. Currently I don't have much of a read on him either.
Vi
: Hmm. Vi seems like a tough person to get a read on. My impression of him in this game is that he's a wee bit on the opportunistic side, like Kairyuu. If he's scum, he's playing well so far. His post 94 (where he votes tajo) almost sounds as if he's trying to start a wagon, but this could be legitimate as town also. No real read, yet.
Nat
: I sort of think we should call his bluff. It does have risks, though, so I'd also be okay with someone else for today.
--------
Not sure who to go for yet, I'll try and make up my mind soon.
Nat: How are you both? What's the origin of said princess?
Also, do we know why Battle Mage remains in the votecount? Could be extremely relevant, if it isn't a mistake on Nat's part.
