395: Big Lebowski -- game is dead :(

[Atticus]

You were already voting me, otherwise it would have been lynch -1. Is that what you want to occur? Do you want a claim? Also, could you show me where I contradicted myself?

Yes, I would also like a claim.

And Yosarian, TCS was a cop.

[Atticus]

Actually, I guess he was a tracker, but two pro-town investigative roles seems a bit much.

[Yosarian2]

Actually, I guess he was a tracker, but two pro-town investigative roles seems a bit much.

Well, I have a very specific role-based reason for thinking that there is a cop in the game that gets actual guilty/innocent style cop results, so I do think there is a "real" cop in the game.

[Yosarian2]

Unless the mod was just messing with my head, I guess.

[Atticus]

He definitely gave TCS a bastard role.

[warpdragon]

Right now there are two people voting me and the same two are calling for a claim. If some of the rest of the town wants a claim, I will claim.

[Yosarian2]

Well, I can understand that, but I think at the moment that based on what we know, if you don't have a good claim, you're probably scum.

[Fircoal]

I would also like to here Warp's claim.

[spectrumvoid]

Seconding request for warp to claim.

[warpdragon]

Well, thats four.

I am the rug.

[Yosarian2]

...

You are the rug?

I've never seen the movie; does anyone know what he's talking about?

[Atticus]

Well, thats four.

I am the rug.

Want to make a less vague claim?

And I would also assume since the people in the movie were referred to as:

"the carpet pissers"

I would assume a role like that would say carpet.

[Yosarian2]

I want to hear from people who know more about the move then I do, but I certanly don't see any reason to unvote warpdragon at the moment just based on him saying "I am the rug". That's basically meaningless to me at the moment.

[Atticus]

In the beginning sequence of the movie, "The Dude," (main character) is assaulted by two thugs who think he's a millionaire who goes by the same name (Jeffrey Lebowski). He convinces them that he is not the millionaire, and they leave, but not before one of them pisses on his carpet.

After this, Jeffrey goes to the millionaire Lebowski and asks him for a carpet in exchange for the one that was urinatedon, and the "Big" Lebowski refuses and gives a sermon to him. On the way out, The Dude takes a carpet anyway. This carpet is soon taken by Big Lebowski's daughter, Maude Lebowski.

At one point in the movie, The Dude does refer to it as a rug, but the thugs are referred to by him as the Carpet-Pissers.

[riktus]

I think The Dude and his compadres do generally refer to it as his rug, so the claim seems fair enough on that basis e.g. ...

DUDE: This Chinaman who peed on my rug, I can't go give him a bill so what the fuck are you talking about?
WALTER: What the fuck are you talking about?! This Chinaman is not the issue! I'm talking about drawing a line in the sand, Dude. Across this line you do not, uh--and also, Dude, Chinaman is not the preferred, uh... Asian- American. Please.

DUDE: Walter, this is not a guy who built the rail- roads, here, this is a guy who peed on my--

WALTER: What the fuck are you--

DUDE: Walter, he peed on my rug--

DONNY: He peed on the Dude's rug--

WALTER: YOU'RE OUT OF YOUR ELEMENT! This Chinaman is not the issue, Dude.

DUDE: So who--

WALTER: Jeff Lebowski. Come on. This other Jeffrey Lebowski. The millionaire. He's gonna be easier to find anyway than these two, uh. these two ... And he has the wealth, uh, the resources obviously, and there is no reason, no FUCKING reason, why his wife should go out and owe money and they pee on your rug. Am I wrong?

DUDE: No, but--

WALTER: Am I wrong!

However I think we need some information on what your role actually is. Just dropping a role name seems rather unhelpful.

Mod

can we get a votecount please? My vote is hovering in warpdragons direction, to get some more out of him if nothing else. Not putting it on without a firmer idea of where we are though, so FOS:warpdragon for now.
Claim more!

[Fircoal]

he should claim a bit more, but I think I'm leaning towards believing it.

[riktus]

The rug as a role name seems relatively reasonable, don't really see how you can lean towards believing a claim without knowing what it is he's claiming though :s

[warpdragon]

Townie

And it does say rug, not carpet.

[Yosarian2]

Hmm. It's a good name-claim, but I'm not sure if I believe that there are any vanillia townies left.

[spectrumvoid]

2 scum and 1 sk seems likely.

Clearing the masons would give us 3 out of 5 to choose from, which is pretty good odds. If I believe Yos, it's 4 out of 5, which is great. I'd like the mason to claim.

Down between Yos and warpdragon,

vote: warpdragon

[warpdragon]

Hmm. It's a good name-claim, but I'm not sure if I believe that there are any vanillia townies left.

If there are any left? We haven't lost any to begin with.

[Yosarian2]

There are 7 people left. If there are 2 scum and 1 sk left, 2 masons, 1 cop, and me, then everyone else would be scum. SO yeah, I don't think there's any townies left.

It's possible there's only 1 scum and 1 sk left, and if so you could be telling the truth. And it's possible I'm wrong about there being a cop, if the mod is messing with me. I don't think either of those possibilites are very likely, though.

If there's a cop with an innocent on warpdragon, they should claim now. Otherwise, we should lynch him.

[riktus]

Wouldn't willows_weep as "Delfino" (PI) count for the cop role, getting innocent/guilty results? Sorry for not spotting that one before. I'm not entirely convinced by your current load out of remaining roles, apart from anything else we've turned up some pretty random roles so far.

[Atticus]

Good point, but what is the PI exactly?

[Yosarian2]

Hmm. That's actually a good point, riktus, hadn't noticed that.
