Mini 1175: Iowa Mafia (Game Over!)

[Akira]

There are numerous reasons for my vote on monk: His inconclusive list of reads, his wish-wash posts and the recent issue with the forgotten question make him very scummy. All his scumhunting is fake and his only goal seems to be protecting himself from our accusations.
About the claim I believe it was very premature for him to say something like that. I agree with bgg that a scumbuddy could confirm it for him. The move itself is pretty stupid but being a VI it's very possible.

I think it's in the town's best interest to ask for the other mason to claim.

[Zachrulez]

Monk claimed? I must have missed that.

[Twistedspoon]

Monk claimed?

[Final Destination]

We didn't notice the mason soft claim, but it is NOT in town's best interest for the other one to claim today.

Agreed, Council?

If Monk is a mason he's not the lynch today, which means its ON to the next one.

We three will have an epic LyLo. If either of you is scum you have to promise NOT to kill the others on the council, or else be held to the meta of a lying an immoral scumbag for the rest of our games here on this site. If all of us are town the scum have to eliminate us one by one before we destroy this game.

Now the REST of you peons will have to fight over who will be lynched, and the council will make the final 3 voting bloc hammer.

Fight amongst yourselves.

Here are my reads as they are vague and imperfect:
THE TOWNIES:

There can't be TWO sets of masons in this game.

I am not satisfied with Archaist's posts this game.

Why are you?

That's pretty blatant rolefishing.

[Zachrulez]

If you had any actual knowledge of my play, you'd know I don't say any more than is necessary.

If it makes you feel any better, I'll blatantly sheep your vote on Archaist.

Unvote: Vote: Archaist

[Zachrulez]

Oh ninjaed.

I'm playing the game, you just don't like how I'm playing it.

[Zachrulez]

^ Hint: Your Archaist vote was better, your vote on me is pure shit.

[Zachrulez]

Who do you think is scum Archaist? You voted FD for pushing the council too hard, but you haven't exactly been doing a whole lot since.

Firing off a passing comment here, a question there, but I'm not really seeing a pursuit to anything. Your play seems to be pretty hollow after you get past the shell.

[Final Destination]

That's all I was asking for.

Yeah I DONT like how you're playing. And if we're both alive in LyLo you get my vote for being useless.

FD: How strong is your read on TS?

[Greymarble]

Haven't heard from Grey, but I like this.
VOTE: Archaist

@Zach: We'll make sure we agree before allowing a lynch.
Beyond that there's not a lot we can do without dropping post rate significantly while waiting for agreement.

[Zachrulez]

Should be noted, that should all 3 of myself, GreyMarble and FD actually be town. Scum would find the three of us in a bloc to be quite threatening.

So gleaning through the reactions.

I'm wary of FD that he knows me and I don't know him. I'm (in)famous for my peafjournals - or rather, huge walls of text of my stream of consciousness as I reread previous days. Also, how do you know Baku and Speed? Speed's actually the guy that told me to try out mini-normals.

That being said, the voting block is incredibly stupid. I trust myself here, and that's it. If one of the three of you strike me as scum, I won't hold back in attacking you just because you're on some dumb council. For all I know, the 3 of you could be the 3 scum in the game. Anyone who asks me for their trust this early is going to get just the opposite.

Monk saying that I've newbscum'd as much as he has is, in my eyes, him admitting that he's newbscum. LOL @ him thinking a player can't change what he thinks of other players, though.

Don't see how sarcasm junk adds anything to scumhunting, bgg, and the "oh I was being sarcastic, you couldn't tell? ;_;" is a horrible defense and I'm ashamed that someone here used sarcasm as a defense for

anything

.

This post touts PeafJournal, talks about being weary about FD because he knows him and not vice versa, which is not really an actual reason to suspect someone, and reacts negatively to the council on the grounds that all the council members could be scum, which is probably one of the most ridiculous things I've seen anyone write ever.

Not to mention that there's been quite a lack of PeafJournals, and very few shortish posts which would disappoint a self proclaimed wall poster.

Next contestant:

Final destination, make sure you don't tunnel. It seems you're preparing for that, one of your "council" members could easily be scum, if you go through game assuming they're town, we could mess up big time. Scummiest thing so far, is that BGG thing where he said kondi2424 was being scummy, i know as scum i used to just pick a name that i tthought i could lynch nad say their being wscummy, i think hes doing the same

UNVOTE: Twisted spoon
VOTE: bgg1886

I twitched all over reading this. Addressing FD like he knows his alignment really put me off. "if you go through game assuming they're town, we could mess up big time."

I don't think I need to go into detail with the context of what I'm pointing out here. Suffice to say that a Hiplop scum flip strongly indicates FD town.

And finally...

I'm setting up lynches because unless there's a doc with his head out of his ass, I AM dying N1. So you fucks need your guidance and you need it TODAY.

No need for that kind of language. Ad hominem and disparaging fellow players isn't in the spirit of the game. What makes you so sure you'll be night killed? Begging for doc protection is very suspicious. That and your #110 make it seem like you're trying to soft-claim something. Us peons need it said more clearly.

Oh, and you're pushing your council way too hard.

Unvote
Vote: Final Destination

Looks more like a direct attack on FD's council proposal than anything else. On top of that he doesn't attack FD for anything that I'd actually find scummy. Just for generally being polarizing. Those kind of lynches are the type of lynches that seem good and make people feel better about that particular type of player dying, but in reality are actually pretty poor lynches.

It's very likely there is scum in this group of reactions.

- I'll probably move this if Grey moves the Hydra's vote but I don't see anything town from him and I'm happy to sheep you three.
