Because if he's scum, it's an excessive amount of heat on him Day 1. If I was scum and had a daykill, I would certainly save it for later in the game when it is going to do the most damage and work in my favor.
Shooting someone day 1 for little reasoning isn't sound strategy.

If we can out them and kill them, we prevent one anti-town kill per night, extending the game and gives the scum more of a chance to screw up and get them lynched.
Why do you seem to be speaking with increasing certainty that there is a third party? I'm really trying to understand how you are coming to this conclusion if you are town.

He might be town, as vi believes as well...but sometimes they gots to go for the greater good especially since well he wants me lynched (a bad move as i am town) and more over is willing to kill me (2nd shot attempt, and will undoubtedly try this again tomorrow)... So logically he should be lynched or shot, in just a self preservation manner, no? Not to mention I also believe it beneficial to the town...why me die, when a ?? can die.
Self-preservation should never be at the heart of your scum hunting and shows your mentality in this game.
Amished wrote:Ben, wanna toss up that VP meta case?
Unfortunately, I'm agreeing with Ben's vote; VP's activity this game (content, not necessarily number of posts) is awful (both in content and driving the game forward).
So you think ben is scummy and would like to lynch him but think his "VP's not playing to meta" ambiguity is good?
And thanks for bruising my ego...sheeesh.

You were? I didn't get that vibe at all, just that you were wildly speculating about third parties.

^obv obv town.
benmage wrote:So real quick conclusion. Her overall play is just really poor. Its reminiscent of a coaster style which just isn’t what I’m use to from VPB when shes town. Lots of fluff and useless posts which isn’t character-like of her at all. She’s usually quite good if not much better than this. Mafia 98, ongoing game. This games play is somewhat close to Mafia 91 where she lurked/played bad and was scum.
I have never heard such a vague and weakass case in all my time on this site. Your assessments of my posts don't even say anything of substance. You don't explain why you think any of the posts are bad, you are simply either providing IIoA or you give a backhanded comments like "poor explanation"...well what does that mean really? what is poor about it? Who knows, but it's certainly poor.
Also, your assessment of Mafia 91 is clearly biased. I did not lurk at all that game, nor did I "play bad". As far as I recall, most people thought I was town in that game and I simply got busted by a Vi investigation. I encourage anyone to look at that game and see how much crap you are pulling out of your ass.

Stay tuned to find out.
Yeah, except I explained with valid reasons why your votes this game have stunk to high heaven. I'm not comfortable being on a wagon like that. After your shady ass vote, I am much more inclined to believe that I was wrong about Confid and not about you.
Also, I really hope you are serious about this bus turned chainsaw argument, go go gadget mega-reach.

I think that's the best post I've ever seen you make, Ben.
What was good about it exactly? What specifically do you agree with from it? What do you think of his meta arguments?
Vi wrote:While there is a decent possibility for there to exist a Cop in this setup given the flavor, the number of places left to look for one is getting smaller considering there have been two claims so far, so that Cop is already in heightened danger.
lol, that's some pretty great logic there. Let's start shooting because if there is a cop he/she is in heightened danger of drawing a NK. It really isn't much of a wonder dj took a shot at you this game because you have not been making much sense from the get go.
Amished wrote:So, who else is up for lynching VP here and now (or just shooting him and being done with it?)
Ok, the next person who pushes randomly shooting people is guaranteed scum.
Porkchop wrote:Your PBPA post is actually quite compelling Benmage. I'm not sure it clears you entirely, but it's a solid case that shows you aren't just an opportunistic voter.
ugh...what was compelling about it?
I really feel like this wagon on me isn't just coincidently springing up on me now that I'm V/LA. Something to think about folks. And if it is really going to come to the point where you guys think you want to shoot me (I really hope you play better than this), give me at least a chance to respond to my accusers since it might take me a day or two if I'm not around. Don't play so rashly if you're town.
Apologies for the mega post.
