Mini 859 - Cleansing of Falls Church - Over

[ConfidAnon]

And casting suspicion on a lot of people so you can support favorable lynches later is a genuine scum tactic. That's why my vote is on you, ConfidAnon.

Fair.

[DeathRowKitty]

@SJ

You supporting a theory that is rubbish is what warranted the vote, ConfidAnon.

That's because I respect you, ConfidAnon, and have a tough time believing you actually thought that theory was good.

I think you just said it was because you were trying to be chummy, or at worst because you were trying to spread ungrounded suspicions, both which ARE scumtells.

And casting suspicion on a lot of people so you can support favorable lynches later is a genuine scum tactic. That's why my vote is on you, ConfidAnon.

How did you go from "supporting a theory that is rubbish" to "casting suspicion on a lot of people"?

[Sanjay]

The theory casts suspicion on people.

[EtherealCookie]

Looker's theory found connections between players. Finding connections is a genuine scumhunting tactic. I supported this.

How good of a lead do you think the connection was, as compared to other leads so far this game?

@EC
Congratulations on winning the "Most Useless Player I've Ever Seen" award. If you don't feel like playing properly, ask to be replaced.

Thanks.

@EC
What do you think about Peabody's play so far?

[Peabody]

I self-voted because I was left out of the fun.

You basically copied his voting pattern... You voted for yourself, just like BigBear, and now you are questioning BB's erratic behavior (Even after you self-voted?)

I'm a hypocrit.

I can't tell what you are trying to do with your Shrinehme vote EC... You said that it won't do anything. But you refuse to take the vote off of him. Then after you are questioned, you decided to act all hardcore about the vote. Seems like you are trying to feel your vote..

I don't know, you tell me!

Wanna try again? Do you have reasoning behind anything you do?

[EtherealCookie]

What do you think about Peabody's play so far?

Hm. He points out weird word usage, which I don't think is a scum tell at all, unless it's very obvious, such as knowing the roles due to set ups. He asks a lot of questions. They're not exactly pointing out anything scummy at the moment, however, and are pretty simple questions. I get neutral vibes. We'll see if he steps up his questioning and actually points out anything noteworthy, won't we?

All of a sudden you acknowledge you could be wrong... but you could be right... Why is your vote even on BigBear?

So you're telling me that we need 100% proof that a person is scum before lynching them? Well damn, we won't get anywhere with that.

Why the self vote? Are you playing off of Far_Cry's WIFOM comment bc you thought it was a good idea?

Don't leave me out of the fun!

I think someone already pointed this out, but these two quotes seem contradictory:

If someone pointed it out, why are you pointing it out again? People do read the posts, y'know.

I'd love to know your reasoning for that. Being a useless townie must mean you're scum, right?

Wanna try again? Do you have reasoning behind anything you do?

Not really.

[Shrinehme]

I'd love to know your reasoning for that. Being a useless townie must mean you're scum, right?

Being useless means having no initiative to scum-hunt, or distracting from scum-huting.

And since the town's win condition relies on hunting scum, while scum's does not... it makes a scum tell.

[EtherealCookie]

Fair enough, I suppose.

[nook]

unvote, vote EtherealCookie

We are way out of the RVS and you said that the game "needed to take a more serious turn" in post 128, yet you behaving erratically like you don't really care about the game at all.

I'm not a fan of WIFOM arguments and all that, which is why I'm not commenting on things like BigBear's play right now until I can get a proper sense of him. But you on the other hand, would make a good lynch today, simply for the fact that you don't seem to be helping the town much at all.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but thats the impression I get.

[Kreriov]

Ah, the weekend. Is it just me or do the Readskins really suck and just got lucky? Or is it just their quarterback? Ah well, the people of Falls Church have more important things to worry about.

"

OH, I see it now Looker!

", says EtherealCookie as he tightens the noose around his neck.
"

Hmm, to tight, I think this would look better on Shrinehme.

"
"

Whoa!

", says BigBear, "

If one more person pulls on that rope, Shrinehme will be lynched!

"
"

No, I think it would take at least two more people

", says EtherealCookie.
"

Besides

", says BigBear, "

You didn't say mother-may-I

".
EtherealCookie - "

I don't have to say mother-may-I! See, it says so right here in Martha Stewarts's

The Etiquette of Lynching!"
Looking a bit puzzled, Looker seems to wander off muttering, "

But its WIFOM, but if they knew it was WIFOM, its not really WIFOM, but if they knew that I knew, then it is WIFOM, but if they know that I knew that they knew, then its not really WIFOM, but if they knew that I knew that they knew...

Really? I'm not pointing out anything scummy? I would say that my questions are being used to hunt scum.

All of a sudden you acknowledge you could be wrong... but you could be right... Why is your vote even on BigBear?

So you're telling me that we need 100% proof that a person is scum before lynching them? Well damn, we won't get anywhere with that.

What I'm saying is normally people are pretty sure they want someone lynched, and they don't normally bring WIFOM into the picture. It looks a lot like fencesitting

which is a scumtell

.

Yes, but it's always good to look at it from another angle.

I'd love to know your reasoning for that. Being a useless townie must mean you're scum, right?

My reasoning was in the post you are quoting.

Oh and...

Did you just claim???

[DeathRowKitty]

Slow day.

Mod, can we get a prod on Idiotking? He hasn't posted since October 1.

Oh and...

Did you (EC) just claim???

I'm not seing it, unless you mean that he claimed he was a townie.

*twiddles thumbs and waits for FC or EC to show up*

[Looker]

Are BigBear and Far_Cry still in this game?

[Sanjay]

Okay, just throwing it out there, shoot it down if you want.

You get the most votes, the closest to a lynch, and then BigBear votes no lynch.
Far_Cry votes BigBear for wanting a no lynch.
You vote Far_Cry.

Shoot it down.

Looker, what do you think of my allegation that your theory is so bad that ConfidAnon is scummy just for supporting it?

[Looker]

The answer to that question depends on further posts from BigBear, Far_Cry, Shrine, & Cookie; however, BigBear & Far_Cry have disappeared. I

will

answer your question, but I'd like for them to get back first. Will that be alright?

[Sanjay]

That's just fine with me.

Unvote

Hi.
You were expecting me?

[DeathRowKitty]

@EC
Yes. I figured you might try to be useful and respond to PB's post.

[brothernature]

I'm lurking, quite obviously.

[Sanjay]

Pro-town lurking though, right?

[brothernature]

Yes, yes of course. Just sitting back and observing.

[Sanjay]

Oh, I'm really glad SOMEONE is observing what is going on. I totally forgot!

What have you seen? Who is the scummiest to you right now?

[Shrinehme]

Brothernature, I see that you are not voting [I can observe too!]. Does everyone so far look Innocent to you?

[Sanjay]

Get your own looker to taunt, Shrinehme. This one is mine.
