Open 9 - Basic Twelve Player (Game Over!) - before 400

[The Central Scrutinizer]

unvote because of this

:

I will be away from now till Monday due to Chinese New Year.

So your convinced I'm scum, but you don't want to leave your vote on me and......miss the action?

In her defense, I would and have done the same... you never know what will happen.

[Patrick]

The deadline is extended to tuesday the 20th, 11 pm GMT.

Uuh a deadline in a game I'm not 100% coinfident about lynching scum.. that's just wrong.

[Ripley]

I read through the game a couple of days ago and I remember thinking IH had a point, there wasn't much of a concrete case against him considering the level of suspicion there has seemed to be in the second half of the game or thereabouts. TCS claims to have found a scum tell but doesn't say what it is, giving IH nothing to defend himself against. I wouldn't be

surprised

if IH were scum. But then I can say that about almost all of you. IH would improve my own opinion of him if he spent less time grumbling about how there's no case against him, and more time analysing the game or putting together a lucid case against somebody else.

I think ShadowLurker has been evasive and unhelpful, things that always make me deeply suspicious. There was no suspicion of IH at all until post 88, where ShadowLurker FOSes him with no comment. More than one person asks him to explain the FOS, he refuses. He then upgrades the FOS to a vote, again with no explanation. This all happens well before anyone else takes an interest in IH, as does this, post 135:

So our three scum are AndrewS, IH, and TCS, which one of them should we lynch first?

A scum group of 3 now, but - of course - still no explanation. Then later in the game there is much more interest in IH, who reaches 5 votes at one point, and what does ShadowLurker do? He unvotes IH and votes Lowell instead, announcing:

The scumgroup of the day is AndrewS and Lowell.

We are - naturally - given no reason for IH being dropped, any more than we were for his being on the list in the first place.

TCS has already picked up on this:

Sorry for the triple... I want you to explain

1) Why IH was scummy and then stopped being so in your eyes, not hammering him, and not even mentioning his wagon in your posts.

The reply:

I wanted to see a reaction, he had been lurking. While he is still lurking, I didn't really find anything unsual to warrant him being lynched.

This is really unconvincing. The original vote came long before there was any indication that IH was lurking.

Then there's the other issue addressed by TCS in the same post to ShadowLurker: the changes of mind about AndrewS, who he first declares to be scum, then all but cleared by a townie tell (he does eventually explain the tell, pretty much the only thing he's ever answered) and finally scum again.

2) Why Andrews had a "huge town tell" that made you "almost certain" of his innocence, but is now part of the scumgroup.

and the reply:

Plz read the preceding page.

Quite deliberately unhelpful. ShadowLurker has evaded answering any awkward question put to him, or even neutral questions such as asking him the reasons for a FOS or a vote.

But my vote stays on Battle Mage as long as he continues to avoid explaining exactly what he meant by post 11. This has been raised at least 4 times now by different players, and he continues to ignore it every time, or pretends not to understand.

Ok, so my top three most scummy are IH, SL, and Akbar, in that order. IH because he lurks and has yet to post any content helpful to the game. SL for pretty much the same reason, except throw in a couple of blatant evasions and unexplained FOS-ing, voting, and the like. Akbar for his borderline-WIFOM. I still have my suspicions about spectrumvoid, but that's more of a gut feeling than anything I can explain.

I'd like for everyone to explain why they're voting for who they are voting for... or just post something. I'm a little frustrated that there are two obvious scum here and the day is still going.

LAWL, have you even read the last few pages?

Not only that, but you have now entered the realm of lurker hunting. = )

[Fircoal]

Ripley, Ripley is the most like scum. Now he brings another person up, trying so hard to get a lynch while yet appearing innocent. Lowell too, has acted scummy, and trying to defend his fellow scum, and counter claim.

Ok, I'll give you a pass for being ill. Now focus on the second part of what I wrote. What have you contributed to the town?

When did he say he was still ill?

Ripley first had his scummy response on Bm, and now he sees it as a lost cause. So he's trying to pin the blame on someone else, and try to keep the suspicion away from him by keeping him vote on BM, so he's not called a vote hopper. He really wants the day to end.

Ripley is always appearing so useful. Framing more innocents is a good way to play when you are not even changing your vote along with your case.

He's done the same thing in another game, I think, I could be wrong.

ye, post 11 was pretty weak logic, but it was no less useful than a random vote. On page 1, most people arent taking the game so seriously.

*BM impatiently awaits the wagon on TCS (who is blatantly scum) to grow.
