[DrippingGoofball]

I'm on the verge of voting pickemgenius.

[DizzyIzzyB13]

You have 12 hours (minus 10 minutes or so).

[RedCoyote]

Frankly, I think that's the right call.

[RedCoyote]

I said that while cackling manically (which, luckily, you couldn't hear).

[DrippingGoofball]

VOTE: pickemgenius

[DrippingGoofball]

Frankly, I think that's the right call.

You ought to be certain. You "think?"

[Mr.Sandman]

I'm disliking RC more and more

[Mr.Sandman]

vote pickem

[DrippingGoofball]

So? Who was the scum?

[Mr.Sandman]

Not me. I've been sitting here refreshing the page for the last 24 hours

[DrippingGoofball]

*biting nails*

[Robocopter87]

*cough*Finally.*cough*

[Mr.Sandman]

I can't take this anymore

[DrippingGoofball]

argh

[pickemgenius]

I totally read the game ftr. I have notes and everything. I have no use in cluttering up everything.

*shrug*

[DrippingGoofball]

More importantly, were you scum?

[DizzyIzzyB13]

Sorry guys, I swear I'd already posted this. I must have forgotten after I'd written it up.

Day Seven: Vote Count 3

• pickemgenius (RedCoyote, DrippingGoofball, Mr. Sandman) 3 L-0
  RedCoyote (pickemgenius) 1 L-2

Not voting: Nobody!

With 4 alive, 3 votes are required for a lynch.

Voting went down to the wire, but in the end, the decision was made. Defiant to the last, pickemgenius was the final person to be strung up.; The remaining townspeople searched his belongings with baited breath until, finally, they found the proof they needed: a recently fired gun and clothing stained with blood.

pickemgenius,

Mafia Goon

, Lynched Day 7

[don_johnson]

way to go.

[Robocopter87]

WOW.

Well, I guess its a good job people.

Took a while but we got there. Nice job.

[DrippingGoofball]

I was thinking that RC wouldn't have made this particular post if he were scum!

[hitogoroshi]

Nicely done. After his scummy scummy post I was yelling at the monitor for you guys to lynch RC. Good thing I was dead!

[DavidParker]

that post of RC's was ridiculous. it screamed scum. but at the same time the "too scummy to be scum" kinda post. And when you're in lylo (mylo), i don't see scum really doing that, at least with where the site's current meta is.

awesome job guys.

Thank you so much for hosting this game DI, and have to give you an enormous hand for dealing with this game, just with the amount of replacements needed, and overall activity levels.

The rest of this post isn't going to be pretty, so if you want to keep your sensitivities, then look away.


Firstly. Zero, if you are around anywhere. WTF, just wtf were you thinking when choosing to kill DP? We were discussing between Hito and Ythill, I come back and see left field DP, and I still don't understand why you even chose that guy. [But thanks for doing that wtf moment then leaving me out to dry with the rest of the player list. ]

pickem, the win was essentially handed to you on a silver platter by DGB, and you just ... I don't even know.

In all honesty, I think we all sucked at this game. This game was so chalk full of people not reading, not paying attention, not posting - either side winning was more happenstance than actually doing something proactive to get there. So, no offense, but I'm not congratulating you guys on the win - as you basically did nothing to actually get there. [For instance, taking multiple days to realize you'd lynched someone .. come on now.]

One thing I'm still extremely confused on, why did you all not lynch Wacka as soon as he made that post which everyone seemed to hold against me. You all should've lynched him right after he made it - as he basically admitted he was scum. But what do you all do.. allow me to survive not one, but TWO lynches thereafter.

I congratulate the people who did not lose their sanity and at least made some effort to play. No Mr. Sandman, I'm not talking about you. Your play was straightup terrible, no thoughts of your own, always lurking and on the cusp of idling out. Straight up terrible. Moral of the story, which is a sad one - peruse games before you choose to replace in them.

[DrippingGoofball]

Ythill did a fantastic job replacing in.

[Mr.Sandman]

Interesting take. Why's that last bit was aimed at me specifically, when pretty everyone, minus most of the replacements, were no different - Sanxion, Muthaa, Zero etc. I'll hold my hands up and say yes, perhaps I could've put in more the last two or three game days. But to be honest, those days in the middle when everyone was just wagoning and it was just getting ridiculous, I got a bit disillusioned. I probably should've asked to be replaced but there had been enough replacements as it was so I thought I'd keep going. Then hito and ythill came and did a lot of detailed work which I appreciated cause I was really busy for a while.

I don't know where you get I had no thoughts of my own, though. The last two days, yes, I followed others and I'm glad I did because my decision to vote pickem today was largely based on the fact that hito, ythill and DGB had all pinpointed pickem as the remaining scum. They'd done the analysis, and it seemed acceptable and I had no idea what to do on my own, given RC's horrendous post. However, I put forward one of the first cases on SV, I was onto Wacka after the point at which he left, and should've pushed that more, I put forward a case on Robo which I thought was strong (even though it turned out to be wrong) and it was pretty much ignored.

I'm not defending all my actions and saying I had an amazing game. I know I had a terrible game and my activity levels were poor and didn't help the game in general, for which I apologise to everyone, especially the mod. I don't get what the bug you have with me in particular is. After we lynched you as well - don't get where your cheap shot there came from.

Glad we won though
