There's no reason not to remind him either. That is unless you are scum and you know he is town.
If his score is low you're more likely to win. You know that you are (whatever alignment you are) and will help you out. The only reason to want others to do well is if you think that they are of similar alignment for some reason or another.
Any given person's more likely to be town than scum.

Same percentage for everyone except yourself, which means you have no reason to want to help people that are not yourself(I'm assuming the difference between where you get with good play and where they get with good play is mostly negligable over long periods of time).

Me neither, unless you have some reasons behind this.

I really don't think we can read too much into the helpful advice given by thesp, it seemed to me to just be a friendly gesture, although not a very strategic one (for the points brought up afterwards by coron).

We now have 2 days, by my clock, to figure something out. We need a lynch or more activity. The former seems more likely.

Anyone ever played with Coron before?

I have heard that his playstyle as a townie and as a scum is so radically different that it is not funny. If so, pray tell, does he act like a townie or a scum in this game?

Also, I think it'll be better if everyone simultaneously roll for each round, with a round ending after everyone has rolled. That way, the game will move faster.

Also, confirming my vote on Nocmen to get things started.

Confirm Vote: Nocmen


That effectively ends my random vote.

Here's a case on him, albeit a rather weak one:
1. He has yet to post again since page 2, therefore he is actively lurking.
2. He speculated on the deaths on Night 0, indicating he has inside information on it and was trying to dig out more info.
3. His random vote served no purpose since it was based on the roll of a die.

All these rub me the wrong way and as far as my guts is telling me as of now, he is scum.

So guessing on what really happened over night is a scumtell? I dont see anything wrong with guessing, trying to see if we are dealing with two killing groups, a bomb, vig, etc.

As for lurking, there hasnt been anything to comment on.

Unvote: Dagger
. I accept his explanation for his question.

Nocmen, I think that you can find something to comment on if you try.

I looked at the last vote count, and I saw that Nocmen's vote on Thesp wasn't registered. I also see that Nocmen didn't correct the mod, which seems kind of weird, IMO.
I'm not reading too much into this, but I thought I'll mention it.

Mainly because I want to start a bandwagon I'll

In that case, you are the best lead I have at the moment. Opinion, guys?

By the way, my last comment was in the wrong thread. It still applies, though, since you guys are going slowly right now. Not the 2 days bit, but the you need more posting bit.

@I don't know about anybody else but I thought that meta gaming was generally a frowned-upon tactic. We should take each game on their own merits.

I also think the wagon on nocmen has formed remarkably fast. (Wouldn't his suggestion that he has inside information mean we shouldn't lynch him?)

I don't really have anything to say at this point. But it's been about 2 days since Thesp's turn started. Any chance we can skip his turn so I could roll?

Yea, I sort of think that the roll turns and going in order somewhat disrupts posting, and could possibly be reason for possible inactivity in this game (although I find that D1 either goes really quick or really slow in most games).

As for those trying to bandwagon me, I see no reasoning behind it. All that was said were Daggers three weak points which really could have been anyone that did them, yet hes going after me?

We need a skip pretty soon if we don't get a roll, also, mod, in the interest of fairness we should put a specific limit on the time between rolls before a person is skipped.

Sorry, back now. Let's roll! I'm going to take bird111's remaining dice. He scored 750, correct?

Original Roll String: 5d6
5 6-Sided Dice: (6, 2, 6, 4, 3) = 21


Mod, any chance you can keep the first post updated with the status of where the dice rolls are?
Thanks.

Also, I'd be good with either a Coron or a Mojo lynch. Not fond of the Nocmen wagon.

Taking out the three fives for 500 points, added to the 800 yields a finish of
1300 points

I will put up status in the first post, I am also setting a 2 day maximum before you r turn is skipped. This is not helpful.

Thesp, you don't pick up where someone left off. You roll your dice separate from the opponent. You don't get their points.
