Open 296: MAFIA WINS GONNA TEACH YOU TO BURN

[RangeroftheNorth]

Oh, btw,

Mod: Can we please get a replacement for Hero who hasn't posted on the site in two weeks?

TheButtonmen replaces Hero764. OHAI!
Votecount
RangeroftheNorth (2): Bella, lane
Lane (4) Empking, MrTrow, RangeroftheNorth, ThAdmiral
Empking (1): The_Kingpin
not voting (1): TheButtonmen
With eight alive it takes five to lynch

[TheButtonmen]

I'm the new Hero764.

I'll be caught up by tomorrow evening.

TBM told me he will be posting 20 hrs from now, which would be 9 PM EST.

[ThAdmiral]

Whoops, meant empking. So many similar letters...

[Bella]

Hi, TBM!

[TheButtonmen]

A) I'm here.
B) I'm caught up.
C) I need to yell whoever approved this set-up for the open queue.

I like the lane wagon but the lack of solid competing wagon is making me somewhat uneasy with it, we need to start actually playing now that the game isn't just follow the cop.

@Lane:

Explain in your own words why ranger should be lynched.

@Izzy:

You're being all quiet like over there, other then the comment by Stef about Mutes slot has anything stood out to you?

@Empking:

why are you voting for people you dont think are scum?

Because they had the highest chance of being scum and we had yet to really start getting back into the swing of the game.

Then who do you think is scum if it's not who you're voting?

[TheButtonmen]

Err to clarify Izzy = Bella.

[MrTrow]

i also have to ask how that particular case on ranger was nullified so quickly?

Ranger and Stefunny are scum together, because Stefunny pointed out the case on ranger was 'null at best'?

Before Stef made that particular point:

@ mozamis - replacing out is not a scumtell. It's scummy that you are suggesting it its.

not that far afterwards

Mozamis (4): Hero764, RangeroftheNorth, lane0168, MrTrow

(yes i know there is an RVS-vote in here but still)

If that truely is enough to link the 2, this must be quite a big scumteam.

at the moment, emp's looking like a good candidate as well but may be a little too obvious which makes me consider him not being scum.

too scum to be scum? or 'that would be an omgus-vote so i won`t be making it`?

or are you ranger's alternate? or is ranger your alternate?

This has nothing to do with scumhunting.
If you truely believe this(which i don`t believe you do), well....... (check the forum-rules topic on how to proceed)
@Ranger: the charge is us being 1 and the same person.

[Empking]

@Empking:

Then who do you think is scum if it's not who you're voting?

1. Lamne is scum and that's who I'm voting.
2. With my Ranger vote I was kind of at a loss to who has scum. Think of it as the same certainty as a just out of RVS vote.

[The_Kingpin]

Care to explain that vote switch, Emp?

It looks too eager.

....

It's just as eager as your vote.

Don't be an idiot. Lane's vote wasn't rational. There was one argument and suddenly Ranger is certainally scum? Too eager.

That's the same logic you used.

How so?

What argument convinced me that Lane was scum?

[The_Kingpin]

Your own argument that her vote was too eager. One argument, and suddenly lane is scum.

[Empking]

Your own argument that her vote was too eager. One argument, and suddenly lane is scum.

1. It wasn't one argument, I only became certain after seeing her reaction to my vote.
2. Leaping on somebody else's point is completely differently with agreeing to your own argument.

[ThAdmiral]

One more vote on lane pls.

Modnouncement: Y'all are slow. To keep things moving, I am setting a new deadline of

Sunday, May 1st.

If activity has picked up by then and you need more time I will oblige.

[RangeroftheNorth]

I'm happy with my vote where it is. I'd like to hear more from Bella. Her very limited posting is not helping the town.

[TheButtonmen]

@Lane, Bella:

My questions still stand.

[Empking]

Mod: What are the DL rules?

I will go with no-lynch rather than leading wagon.

[lane0168]

@Mr trow, when i say too obvious, i mean playing too... how do you say, strongly? and inviting quite a bit of attention imo

@buttons, i believe the point that bella brought up was a valid point. more so apparently than empking. the point that stef was quick to say her partner wasn't scum and that replacing out isn't always a scumtell. well, the thing is, stef flipped scum. which makes it quite a bit more informative than if she had been town.

[The_Kingpin]

I'll hammer if the momentum hasn't changed by tomorrow evening.

[ThAdmiral]

No one's speaking. I doubt anything is going to change.

If and when you vote be sure to say your last thoughts (who you think are town/scum etc.) as unless the scum are retarded you will be dying tonight.

[Empking]

Bella: On a scale of 1-100 where are ThAd, Ranger and Lane?

[lane0168]

I'm glad this new deadline is forcing these uninterested people into posting a lot more... oh wait, we're still on the same page

[The_Kingpin]

VOTE: lane

If lane is town, I'd be weary of Empking. Bad arguments.

[saporovirus]

A dark silence descended. You all decided that Lane was the culprit. Regardless of previous ties of friendship, you all rounded on him.

Lane, Mafia goon

has been lynched!

Deadline for NA: Monday May 2nd at midnight.

[saporovirus]

You stayed up all night playing monopoly and braiding each other's hair in a display of (strained) solidarity! The_Kingpin got up to use the facilities. You heard a strangled cry from the other room. You ran to check out the kerfuffle, and you discovered

The_Kingpin, town cop

had been SMOTHERED TO DEATH BY PUPPIES!

[ThAdmiral]

Oh noes! What a surprise...

Ranger of the north is now more or less confirmed town, as is Empking.

Basically we are going to lynch from bella or thebuttonmen.

Any preferences?
