Because we have the (hopeful!) potential to get multiple kills in while under maximal influence from townies. With PR's that scum cannot justify passing to, the bomb threatens them more. And we get a lynch directed by our PRs. It's also the schooling-fish principle. There will probably be at least one person the scum really really want dead (AntB if he's confirmed PR and likely town, Fate or myself if we're even close to right) so we may as well have all of our claims at once because they can't kill us all at once. We want to rush this game down today.

If it helps town more than scum, we might as well. I say Nobody Special goes first.

NS sounds like a good first choice. Popcorn from him.

What if the first bomb was to blow early and the next one wont blow for 2-3 weeks, so we only get one maybe two bomb uses during our great month game breaking day.......I say we wait for the next boom before the massclaim.

But I concur that NS should claim first.

How many people should be in agreement before I claim? Majority?

(Also, as a note, I won't be online again until tomorrow afternoon, after about half an hour from now. I wouldn't want you guys to think I'm avoiding claiming.)

We'll see what happens to AntB when the bomb goes off. There's always a chance oneshot bomb immunity is a scumbility. I'm considering this because I don't like the way he acted as though he didn't want the bomb, and then revealed he was immune to it anyway. AntB, can you explain this?

Evidently I don't want my ability wasting or revealing. Surely logic can tell you that.

Mass claim I believe will catch scum out, and I'm up for NS going first.

I think NS should go first. I don't see any reason to wait, the bomb could go off any minute so we might as well be ready for when the next one comes around

Checkin back in.

NS is fine. I'd like to see TMH sooner than later as well.

Benmage · Post Post #408 (ISO) » Sun Jan 30, 2011 7:46 am

So we're all fine on massclaiming even if only 1 bomb goes off today.....

Benmage · Post Post #409 (ISO) » Sun Jan 30, 2011 7:48 am

You know what... yeah...

I'm a VT

, and I'm not advocating the mass claim until the next boom. I think if its less than a week we can expect a second bomb...otherwise we shouldn't assume so. I think waiting for the next boom gives us a much better gauge of our next move. I think Ant has sufficient information to go off based on peoples play rather than claim to know what to do with the bomb after it blows.

It'd make much more sense if you claimed your name and flavor as well as opposed to, ya know, just plopping down the VT claim.

Fate · Post Post #411 (ISO) » Sun Jan 30, 2011 8:00 am

Oh wow no surprise there Ben.

No fucking surprise there.

Inb4: Tracker tracked Ben nowhere TEHHEEE

Benmage · Post Post #412 (ISO) » Sun Jan 30, 2011 8:04 am

Can't believe you fate, you fake claim alot. Plus why claim that now??? My whole point would be to not out town PRs.

And katsuki. Go fuck yourself. I'm town. How does what I did make sense in he world of a scum?

Fate · Post Post #413 (ISO) » Sun Jan 30, 2011 8:05 am

Plus why claim that now???

Exactly what I'm saying.

I want to hear some flavor from benmage, these last few posts were kind of paranoid and I don't like it at all

Why say you don't advocate claiming and then claim in the same sentence?

And this reads as Paranoia to you??????????

Read the following sentences and you'll have your answer...(hint hint: I want to wait for the next bomb to blow before massclaiming)

Read the next post to fully understand.....(hint hint: I want to not out our PRs)

Got anything?

Presumably to prove he's not advocating delay just so scum can make a more informed fakeclaim.

I can understand the argument. We can wait at least until AntB's bomb actually goes off; and if it's close to deadline we can bank the rest and make day 3 the claiming foreverday. I doubt the bomb timers would be incredibly long to the point we'd only get one on this extremely long day, but there's no harm in waiting and seeing.

That and also that its not me trying to hide the fact that I'm a PR or something of the sort.

AurorusVox · Post Post #422 (ISO) » Sun Jan 30, 2011 8:54 am

Eh, I hate unprovoked VT claims. Did anyone even accuse Ben of trying to delay for scummy motivations?

I'm saying that he's playing both sides of the field. He's paranoid about backlash from the town concerning his own actions so he's hedging his bets and not actually picking a side. If it turns out that massclaiming was the right thing to do, he can protect himself by showing that he was the first to claim. If it turns out to be the wrong thing then he can protect himself by saying he didn't support it. It's equivalent to active-lurking, he's talking but he's not saying anything because if he says something it could incriminate him.

Fate · Post Post #424 (ISO) » Sun Jan 30, 2011 9:03 am

Cept Benmage didn't real claim
