Sorry, I am slow after work some days.

[Stefunny]

Awww, Leave RC out of this.

[Stefunny]

1. PST
2. Ick. Go Denver. If we have football this year that is.
3. Curses? I believe in cursing!
4. Probably not. For some reason I have the worse luck on MS, (Maybe I am cursED) Check my Wiki.

I think D1 gut reads are acceptable, but after the game gets going you better have something more than just "gut" as reasoning.

Also, why are we in such a hurry to start?

[Stefunny]

vote: stefunny

for wanting to extend the rvs (see post 51)

I did not say I wanted to extend it, I simply asked if lane was getting impatient. I think RVS is a good thing to be able to look back on. I don't, however, think that you can tell who is obvscum and obvtown by post #24.

[Stefunny]

My first role PM said VT as well.

[Stefunny]

btw, this is my first basic 12 player open. so looked it up in the wiki. And saw the "follow the cop" thing. what do people think about that. AND NO I AM NOT ASKING FOR CLAIMS,just what people think about the general idea -good idea or not?

I think this is SORT of useful once the cop has a few investigations under his belt. Give them a couple days and then when they feel the time is right, or when they are in danger, we can jump to a follow the doc type situation. It's more helpful when they know a bit too. But until then the cop AND the doc, for that matter, should not be claiming.

And @ Mozamis, I've heard that 12 player tends to be a little unfair to scum unless they can catch a PR, that's why I've always thought it would be more balanced if there was a Mafia Role Blocker.

[Stefunny]

@ MrTrow: "He" is Iecerint in that post. I think we need to get everyone participating here, so VOTE: Hero for not posting in 4 days.

Perhaps some prods are needed?

Tellin' me how to do my jaab! Sendin' out 'em prods Nachomamma's V/LA ends today, so I'm prodding Bella, Hero, and lynchking.

Votecount

Mozamis (4): Hero764, RangeroftheNorth, lane0168, MrTrow

Hero764 (2): Iecerint, The_Kingpin
Bella (1) : Stefunny
The_Kingpin (2): Nachomamma8, ThAdmiral
Stefunny (2): lynchking, Bella
Not voting: Mozamis

With 12 alive it takes 7 to lynch.

[Stefunny]

OR... Some people replace out because they have personal lives. In my opinion requesting a replace is a null tell for sure.
So if you KNOW it's not a scum tell then why suggest we watch Mute's replacement?

[Stefunny]

looks like i am for the chop
could we have a vote count please mod?

Vote count is updated on the first post of every page. You are at L-3.

=( Giving up so soon?
I actually have the opposite experience in games. I for one think that more people enjoy scum positions and PRs and are therefore less likely to drop out. Plus, I've had to drop out of games, regardless of my role, due to real life circumstances. SO I understand where you are coming from but I don't think it's quite the reason to cause a lynch so early in.

@Nacho, after being gone for 4 days do you have any input other than seemingly randomly throwing out names? You could at least give a little reasoning with all of your reads. I suspect you are just trying to gauge reactions and that is your way of scum hunting, yes?

[Stefunny]

I was inclined not to agree with nacho on the Kingpin vote, but his lack of argument is really sad. Thank you for posting your reads Nacho. I see where you are coming from on most of them, but the only person I'm sure is town is Mozamis, based on her follow the cop suggestion.
I have strong town reads on Iecerint, Nacho and Ranger. Nacho may not do things the way I normally would agree with, but he IS scum hunting and I think he is right that we have found scum.

I was inclined to vote Lane with Mozamis, but the fact that Kingpin did not come up with any sort of an argument kind of drove that nail home. We also have 2 players who have not posted in 6 days. At this point it doesn't look like either of them have been back to site in a while so I don't think they are "lurking scum". Just people who abandoned site.

It does make me a slight bit uneasy how Nacho is in such a hurry to lynch him, but I can't disagree that Kingpin is probably our best lynch at this point.

And no, I haven't really done as much scum hunting as you have, Nacho, but it is only page 6, and I am asking questions to gauge where people are at. I haven't really had any responses that I wasn't happy with, and to be quite honest, I hate D1.

UNVOTE:
VOTE: KingPin

[Stefunny]

Who do you think is scum then Kingpin?

[Stefunny]

Speaking of which.

@Mod: Do we have any word on the Hero or Lynchking spots?

Hero replied to my prod. If he doesn't post in thread by Wednesday I will see about replacing him. Still looking for a lynchking replacement.

[Stefunny]

UNVOTE:

Follow the cop should make this an easy enough win.

[Stefunny]

Doh, clicked to fast.
We are at No Lynch-1. Is everyone comfortable with ending D1 already?
I was going to vote no lynch and then realized that would be the end of our discussion.

[Stefunny]

So, then, what happens if the doc is killed and we have no discussion to base our decisions off of thereafter?

[Stefunny]

And how exactly is it the quickest day ever if the cop investigates someone and they turn up as town? We just No lynch again?

[Stefunny]

Ah, have never played Follow the Cop before

[Stefunny]

He sort of did, but now that I understand
VOTE: No Lynch

[Stefunny]

VOTE: No Lynch

Hehehehe.

[Stefunny]

Aw, why ruin all the fun? I thought it was pretty awesome.

[Stefunny]

Ah! Mr Trow pulled out a WIN! I'm impressed, I thought for sure once follow the cop started that it was hopeless. I'll be the first to say Mr Trow pretty much won the game for maf. It was fun to watch at least, too bad I couldn't have been around longer...
not for lack of trying
And yes, if Empking hadn't stepped in I was just waiting for everyone to vote No Lynch again just to delay it another longer. Darn, you ruined the fun for me.

[Stefunny]

I can't lie, I laughed pretty hard, but I would have been pissed if I was town hahahaha.
