Mini 880 - Mini Quick and Dirty - Game Over

[VP Baltar]

Hey crypto, ODDin's town, AGar's town, I'm town....what are your thoughts on who is scum or can we just lynch you now?

[crypto]

I'm rereading. I'll make some sort of case soon, but I have a theory that I'm toying with at the moment so . . . yeah. (zips lips)

I'm town

lol

[crypto]

That said, I feel a little guilty for the lack of instant gratification in the above post.

Scumtron 5000

[0.2] charlatan
[0.2] Ojanen
[0.4] VP Baltar
[0.5] Scien
[0.5] Albert B. Rampage
[0.6] Zorblag
[0.6] Papa Zito

It sucks. I'm really not getting a gut feeling for this game. Hopefully I'll shit out something decent post-reread.

It still irks me how PZ said AGar wasn't playing like scum but then admitted he wasn't playing like town, either, after I badgered him over and over for specific reasons (which he didn't really give, IIRC) and proceeded to hop on the wagon. So for now—

Vote: Papa Zito.

[Zorblag]

First things first. We most likely be in MyLo. There be one kill a night thus far so there be no reason to think that we have multiple scum teams, a Serial Killer or anything of that sort. The most likely scenario be a three person scum team which means that we should assume that any two misvotes on a townie lead to a quick hammer and a loss. Those that be voting should now unvote unless them have a reason to be sure that them are voting for scum.

Second, before any discussion happens Troll feels that it be time for a mass claim. Unless people want to present a reason not to do so at this time no other discussion should happen until that be done; there be no reason to give the scum any extra information during the process.

Troll would like to do a popcorn system. Unless there be any objections Troll will start the claim after people have had a chance to give input. We have 10 days to work with now so Troll would like to get this done with quickly; barring any objections Troll will be claiming tomorrow afternoon PST.

[VP Baltar]

I'm for mass claim.

[Albert B. Rampage]

Unvote

Okay, who claims first?

[VP Baltar]

I'd like crypto to claim first, but majority would obviously choose.

[Scien]

Er... could someone help me out here? How are we in Mylo?

We have 8 currently right? Let's say 3 are anti-town (maybe this is where I am wrong, are you guys saying it is likely more?) That leaves 5 townies? A mislynch and a nightkill tonight leaves us with 3 vs 3 tomorrow right?

Don't you need a majority to lynch?

[Scien]

Oh... I am retarded.

Nevermind. Carry on.

[Albert B. Rampage]

Yes Scien, scum win in a 3 vs 3 situation because the town can't lynch the scum.

[Scien]

Alrighty. I would vote for a Crypto claim first then as well. If it's mass claim it really doesn't matter order anyway, and if we are withholding discussion until we are finished, I don't see any risk in claim order.

[Scien]

Followed by VP.

[VP Baltar]

You don't get to determine the order there, buddy boy. Get with the times. Popcorn claim is the professional way to do things.

[Scien]

I guess I don't understand popcorn claim then buddy. I thought we were voting for who started us off.

Does the popped determine the next claim?

My vote is currently for Crypto. But I am very interested in you as well. I would vote either of you, but I hope that you have to claim earlier rather than later.

[crypto]

I'm fine with claiming, I guess. I understand my play's been

pretty

really lackluster so far. That said, I am a little pissed off—and a little disturbed and suspicious—that people want to dive right into claims without any discussion. You guys really have NO leads?

I claim the entire state of Vermont.

(Finally got around to printing out day 1. Rereading it whenever I get a few minutes.)

Scien, why do you want to vote me?

[Scien]

I am interested in both VP and you. More so at VP, but as long as you both claim early, then I am satisfied. Your claim helps me look at him a bit too ya know.

As for the leads thing... I have leads. But I'm not going to go off and start a bunch of discussion while we do that.

Do you really want me to explain why I want you two to claim earlier rather than later?

---

I will ask one more question about the claim stuff. If we are only in Mylo, why claim a day early? If we have a power role, why take away a night of his? Really asking Zorblag here, since he suggested this stuff.

[Scien]

'while we do that' = talk about the claim or start claiming, whatever we start doing.

There will be plunty of time for discussion after we sort this out.

[crypto]

Do you really want me to explain why I want you two to claim earlier rather than later?

No, the state of mind just irritates me.

I will ask one more question about the claim stuff. If we are only in Mylo, why claim a day early? If we have a power role, why take away a night of his? Really asking Zorblag here, since he suggested this stuff.

Should claim TODAY now that Troll's basically waved a flag over his head that says "PR."

[Scien]

Should claim TODAY now that Troll's basically waved a flag over his head that says "PR."

Oh? Just because he suggested the claim? I think thats a bit of a stretch.

[VP Baltar]

Does the popped determine the next claim?

Yes, the first person is chosen by the majority and then they claim. As a part of their claim, they then pick the next person to claim and so on and so forth.

It keeps it random and prevents the scum from using their numbers to manipulate the claiming order in a way that would be beneficial to them.

[Scien]

I'm changing my claim vote to VP then.

[Papa Zito]

Zorblag, PZ and ABR-who are your suspects?

Troll
VP
Ojanen

Massclaim is fine since this town refuses to get off the fail train.

[VP Baltar]

PZ is very obv. scum btw.

Check how many mislynches he has brought the tail end up on this "fail train". He or crypto needs to be lynched today.

@Scien-I don't really think it will matter much if crypto or I go first, since each of us will probably name the other as next anyhow.

[Papa Zito]

PZ is very obv. scum btw.

OMGUS!

Better check that knee.

[Scien]

Hmm. You think lynching is a good idea in Mylo? You must be damn confident about those two.
