This is simple.

Cephrir's play does not fit her play as town or as scum. She has NEVER lurked this much before. In past games, she contributes less as town than as scum, so I'm inclined to think that NO participation is more a town-tell than a scum-tell, although not strong either way.

But blackcatcontract, on the other hand, hasn't posted in this thread (or on site) for 10 days. The fact that he responded to Yaw means that he IS coming back to the site, but without posting anywhere. I don't know why a townie would do this. If there aren't other games bringing bcc back, it has to be this one, and if it's THIS game bringing him back to the site, why hasn't he posted in it for the last 10 days?

I dont see your value to the game if you arent going to read, and are merely going to ride Gieff's coattails all game.

But you're right, BM, you later said that you didn't think his lurking was scummy, and saw him taking pressure for it in other games.
I dont see the relevance of the post you quoted. And you dont need to patronise me. I'm well aware that i'm right. Usually am. ;)

Battle Mage - it really looked like you were saying Ceph was town. Zach wasn't and hasn't been riding my coattails at all.

You said Zach's example looks good, as if it reinforced your point. You said that level of activity (i.e. high) is about the level of participation we normally see from Cephrir-town. Do you see why it looks like you were assuming Cephrir was town?

Can you explain what you meant by your quote, and why we should have known you were assuming Cephrir-scum?

I was pointing out to Ben that Zach's counterexample was valid. But it doesnt sway me much from the insurmountable evidence suggesting Cephrir is scum. Or at least, scummier than BCC.

Ya know, despite me making a tit of myself about 20 or so pages ago, it would be awful nice if you didnt treat me like an idiot. :P
Please also assume that i'm being objective, because thats what im going for. Dont automatically assume that everything i say, is something to further my own Anti-Town goals. -.-

If you dont know what i mean by something- ASK.

Regarding Zach, i suggest you look closer at the post of his where he trusts your judgement on me 100%, without even attempting to look for himself. Seems to me, like he knows you are town. Why else would he blindly follow something just because you said it. It makes me angry. :P

Just for anyone that will have trouble catching up. Battlemage is voting me for a misunderstanding that he caused.

Also, meta isn't everything, but meta, along with my reasoning on Kai earlier and my gut feeling, is why I support lynching BCC over Cephrir.

I did ask, BM, and I'm not being condescending. I don't see this insurmountable evidence you're talking about, and I don't see why you are ignoring the fact that bcc came back to the site to respond to Yaw, but not for ANY OTHER PURPOSE, as he's in no other games. Or the fact that his predecessor also lurked and replaced out.

Does anybody know if he has an alt?



I will look into Zach and his trust of me about you, Battle Mage. He's claimed to find me scummy all game, so if he takes what I say about you at face value, that seems a bit odd.

Protown Cult-Recruit.

Pretty sure ive said this twice already, but hey-ho.

Basically, Cephrir's participation was relatively normal until recruited by me, at which point, he petered out.

I will note for clarity, that whilst we were a protown cult, the scum was already mostly dead by this time, and we were focussed on fulfilling the other aspect of our win condition- Gaining a majority within the town. AKA, the typical scum win condition.

Now, it's painfully obvious that as soon as his win condition changed, Cephrir didnt bother posting any more, because he knew that survival was all that was necessary.

Just like he is doing here. Cept, we dont have protown cults. We have vanillas and scum.

Hence, Cephrir is scum.

Regarding BCC, maybe he intends to come back but cant get into the reread. Seems reasonable if he genuinely has no other site commitments. I played mafia on another site once, and with 1 game there, i didnt feel quite the lure that i do here, with several.

I can take your meta on Ceph on board, but it'd be awfully good if you could look at mine too. Just to get a better perspective. :P

And dont blatantly misrep me. I'd like to think most people here are going to read themselves, and see why i am voting for you.

Frankly, that means absolutely nothing. His ties to the site are weak, so he might pick up a pm (i believe some people get notification by email), but not have the time or inclination to actually take the plunge. I've been there, and i can relate to that.

You asked if he was going to ride my coattails "all game," which implies a pattern of behavior, so I looked to find this pattern, and it didn't exist.

As I asked before, don't you see why your post made it look like you assumed Cephrir was scum? I thought you just made an honest mistake. Re-read it from an outsider's perspective.

I'm curious to know what you think about Battlemage's resistance toward lynching BCC. Especially after stating a desire to focus on me and Jammer after a Cephrir lurker lynch. (Which seems to imply he would due this if BCC continued to lurk.)

Unvote: Vote: blackcatcontract


It looks like the preferred lynch is Cephrir. I still prefer BCC and think we should consider lynching both if they refuse to participate or be replaced.

I'm willing to switch to Cephrir if necessary, but I will note I don't like Battlemage's selectiveness here.
Note the bottom line. My stance hasn't changed.
