My concerns with BMQ aren't that he's playing loose, but that he's promoting discussion which actively helps the scum and hurts the town - and in a manner which looked like he'd given it plenty of thought.

When you put it that way, it makes more sense, I guess.

I thought the flaws were fairly obvious, to be honest.

You're free to believe whatever you want about a loose playing style, whether it's an indication of scumminess or townliness. In all honesty, I play this game to have fun. (Playing games for fun? psshh) I learned a long time ago not to get too emotionally involved, especially in a game based on accusations. If you believe me to be scum, that's your business, and I know that it's next to impossible to try to convince someone once they have their mind made up.

That's not to say I don't take the game seriously. As long as I'm alive, I'll contribute to discussions and do my best to find scum. The reason I have spoken so much regarding the doctor is that I feel this role's night choices will greatly impact the remainder of this game, which is why I feel that talking about it is so significant, even if the mafia is able to read the same information as the doctor.

Or, I could say that you are actively trying to stifle discussion that would benefit the doctor's decision. It's all about perspective, isn't it?

Day 0 - Sunset
:

As evening comes to the little town of Metodico, the residents leave the Town Square methodically, in the following order:

Mr. Flay
Glork
Nocmen
VitaminR
Seol
Xdaamno
distad
LoudmouthLee
Erg0
Brian McQueso
Simenon
Cogito Ergo Sum

None of them knew what tomorrow would bring...

Day 1 - Sunrise
:

As morning comes to Metodico, the residents methodically arrive in the Town Square in the following order:

Glork
Cogito Ergo Sum
Erg0
distad
BrianMcQueso
VitaminR
Nocmen
Simenon
Mr. Flay
Xdaammo

A methodical search of Seol and LoudmouthLee's homes reveals that they have both been murdered! But that is where the similarity ends.

Seol appears to have been the victim of a carefully planned assassination. There is reason to believe that whoever killed him had been watching him for some time, and may even have staged a "dry run" in the recent past. He was found dead in his bed, shot once in the heart and once in the head. Very methodical.

On the other hand, LoudmouthLee's attack seems to have been very much an ad hoc affair. Someone just smashed in his door and stabbed him repeatedly all over his body. A most random and senseless slaying.

There is only one thing for it. The good people of Metodico will have to methodically deduce who is responsible for these wicked crimes and lynch them. There is only one suitable piece of rope in the Town, so it will not be possible to string up all the wrongdoers together. Rather they will have to be hanged one at a time... methodically.


***

Seol - Cop - Methodically murdered night 1
LoudmouthLee - Nightwatchman - Randomly slain night 1

It is Day 1: 10 alive means 6 votes to lynch!

I'm implying that you're trying to convey a false sense of surprise and/or dismay.

You could be faking dismay as methodical scum without being a randomkiller. I'm not sure why you're assuming that I accuse you of being a randomkiller for the FoS.

I thought you FOSed me for my comment, as in I was doing the 'well done doc' thing. That's not what you meant?

I did FoS you for your comment. But your response:
What, are you implying I
'randomly slew'
someone
...assumes that I am accusing you of being one specific killer (the randomkiller), rather than being scum in general, which further makes me wonder.

From the off when you FOSed me, I thought the only reason could of been because you were implying I could of been some sort of randomkiller. I didn't consider otherwise.

Right. And I'm curious as to why you assumed that I accused you of being the randomkiller. Usually when somebody suggests that I am scum, I don't automatically conclude that they're accusing me of being a specific scumbag. I don't see why you
wouldn't
consider otherwise.



This, of course, assuming that the randomkiller is scum -- I would imagine it's a Random SK, but if it's a random Vigiilante, they should claim

Way to dig yourself a hole...


I'll give you a run-down of my thought process...

You FOS'd me. Obviously, it was relating to the fact I questioned the random killing out loud. The only explanation I could think of was that you thought of the possibility I was the randomkiller and did the 'well done doc' newb play. At the time atleast, I didn't think you could be accusing me of anything
but
that.

My next post didn't consider any other option, so I acknowledged it out loud.

From then I get a little lost in what you're suggesting. I don't see any other reason for your FOS, so my comments are justified, are they not?
