Silavor IS lurking. He has five posts. I have 46, Parama 49 and Slaxx 89. The next lowest poster, Katsuki, has 14. Packbat, who y'know, was lynched yesterday, made twelve. When the second lurkiest player has twice as many posts as you and the most active player has 17 times as many, you are lurking.

The thing is, Elli, you're not meeting the town halfway, nor are you doing what would be expected of someone doing a readthru-catchup.

If you were trying to give us something as you went along - posting reactions to things that have happened- then that would be one thing. If you just went away and typed up your catchup post and made that your priority and didn't do anything else while you did it, that's another. You haven't done either of these things. You've made ten separate posts in thread about how you're catching up and how unfair it is that you're being attacked while you're catching up. If you've got time to post in thread ten times, you've got time to catch up.

And the longer it goes, the more inevitable it seems that what will result from this will either be a wall that no-one can read, or a cursory summary that no-one will think justifies the amount of time it's taken.

I'm aware.
I'm not the type to do massive catchups.
I'll probably have one post with scum is blahblah a few reasons then blah.
I just need spy to settle this first.

My only defense to the timing thing is an overall picture of my activity site-wide right now...but I can't really talk about that so yeah.

Where is this 3rd party crap coming from? Like, seriously, I cannot figure out what you mean by it. We've had a 3rd party flip. Another, in a mini, would make no sense balance-wise.

This is a mini theme.
Your point, Ghost? My last mini theme had 2 3rd parties (admittedly, it was a sucky setup)

The only reasoning I am suggesting it here is because of this:

With three other types of neutrals Fate might have included more, especially in a setup where your roles are based around decades of archetype development and interesting plots.

You called him "bussing 3rd party". And you're also too focused on 3rd-party, caring more about it than scumhunting. Survivors? Let them Survive. They align themselves with whoever is doing best. SK's? They get treated like scum. Hell, they always get treated like scum anyway. Lynchers, might be a threat, but seriously, they tend to tunnel and/or build shitty cases. Making them easier to spot. And, as evidenced by my miller flavor, we have at least one cop for this sort of thing, and I assume that they'd let us know if a neutral result were acting like a lyncher.

I called him bussing or third party

And the third party has been a side not, I am driving lynches

Also I didn't think Pack was survivor obviously, I thought he was scum because of his survival play

And I have been more active and more pressing than probably anyone here when it comes to scumhunting, I led the day 1 wagon and helped sort out the AV fonz shit (though Spyrex was responsible for that too)

And if you think its advantageous for town just to lynch scum until lol-all-gone and not consider other options as far as what else might be out there (especially when its viable and might be too coincidental for comfort as I explained here)

Sorry but the me not scumhunting enough thing is absolute bull. I'm the only reason the survivor wagon went through and although yeah it wasnt on scum I am sure he woulda fucked us over in a heartbeat and Im sure would have fucked up any town PRs if he thought they would threaten him.

Also, just as a side note, the flavor cop kind of strengthens my point. Why not just have a regular cop that investigates good/evil and make the decision on the one third party in the setup? I just dont see it tbh. I don't see an SK because of lol-1 kill but I could see a lyncher under true neutral for sure.
