NS:I stand by what I said earlier. You are still my top suspect. I'm not sure whats wrong with stating that con was close to being lynched. And don't try to throw suspicion on me by saying I'm lurking. When you asked people if they lynched people for lurking everyone said no. By the way, when I went back to see what you said about it I noticed that you never answered your own questions. Why?

wredfar's lurking hasn't caught my eye, and neither has his post about Con's L-1, but I really don't like his answer:

So practically you're lurking because we said we wouldn't lynch you for it?

Akira: that's not what I said. I'm not postin much because I didn't have much to say. I was just telling NS that he was wasting his time with that lurking comment.

Well, I answered Conspiracy's questions, and forgot my own; sorry about that.
Nobody Special wrote:1) Are you having fun yet?
2) Chocolate or vanilla?
3) How many Mafia games have you played (here or elsewhere)?
4) Lynch all Liars?
5) Math or Sports?
6) Lynch all Lurkers?
7) What do
you
think of the RVS?
1) Yep.
2) Chocolate, always.
3) About 30 or so here; a handful on another site; none IRL.
4) Always.
5) Math, please.
6) Unless someone else scummier shows up; but voting lurkers is a viable pressure strategy, I've found.
7) I think I've made it clear I can't stand it; it's largely useless.

Now, on to wredfar: You tell us you haven't much to say; that I'm your top suspect; and that I'm wasting my time because you aren't lurking, when you clearly are.

Not sharing your insights with us is quite anti-town.

Did you and ConSpiracy cook up any strategies pre-game?
....what?

Hmm I felt it was appropriate that Wredfar pointed out that CS was at L-1 before our moderator got here to avoid a possible reckless hammering. NS' statement that Wredfar is 'active lurking' is plausible, however Wredfar remains low on my suspicion at this moment in time. I am taking into consideration that this is his first forum game.
__________________________________
Bacon is a real humpty-dumpty here. I am unsure about his reasoning for voting CS and his gut feeling about myself and Akira being less suspicious. Espicially since we only had one meaningful post each in between his post of stating he suspects us and then the post where he does'nt suspect us as much anymore.When asked he states " I'm still keeping my eye on you". That came across as scummy to me. Also:
bacon wrote: @everyone- I agree that Wredfar seems suspicious as well, and should possibly be another one of our suspects.
Why? The apparent lurking?
_______________________________
I have previously posted my suspicion on Nobody Special. He seems suspicious of Wredfar but I'm not sure if that's genuine. A new person not saying much can be an easy case for a mafia member to jump on. His last statement was scummy in my opinion
Nobody Special wrote: Did you and ConSpiracy cook up any strategies pre-game?
Unneccesary comment as town. Trying to make a link between them?
________________________________________
My main suspect is Jediknight. He has'nt been questioning anybody about thier posts or thoughts. The only time he did was a direct reaction to myself voting for him. Otherwise he has just answered questions directed towards him with the exception of one post in which he voted for CS for a reason that I do not like. He did'nt post previous suspicions or direct a question towards CS before or after the vote. I don't feel that he is looking for mafia, because I think he is one. I would vote for Jediknight right now- however as it turns out, I already have my vote on him :)

Everyone else I feel is town to varying degrees.

@Max: Yes, that line was my oblique way of saying I find them both scummy, and they'll likely turn out to be scumbuddies.

I never said I wasn't lurking. I even admitted I haven't posted much because I have little to say. I was only pointing out that this town said they dont lynch proletariat just for lurking, so you'll need a better argument than that.

Yes the lurking is the reason, it's suspicious.

As for my gut feeling thing, it's more of me being more suspicious of someone else so that I focused less attention on others. For the still keeping an eye one you comment, it was simply a comment that was intended to be slightly humorous, as well as saying that I'm watching everyone. (Like one should be in a game of Mafia.)

Hmm okay.

@Wredfar: Who do you think is mafia apart from Nobody Special? Any suspects?

My second suspect would be Jedi. It seems to me that he just goes with the crowd (his vote on con for example).

@max: reading back over his posts, I don't like some of the questions he asks, especially asking trendall to bandwagon on lord. Before that, CS had said nothing about suspecting lord, only NS, so I'm not sure why he would suddenly ask for a bandwagon on him. I still suspect NS and Jedi more, as some of CS's questions were good for discussion, but CS is definitely a possible suspect.

Scum like to make connections instead of searching for real scumsuspects. If you are scumteam with wred and you connect me with him, you can set up a nice trap on me if wred is lynched.

Okay, I get it now.

However, my point is not necessarily to make a connection, but to scumhunt. I have two suspects who are each quite scumtastic, and since there's only two on the scumteam and no third parties, the connection is inevitable. But I'll refrain from referencing it if it makes you uncomfortable.

Hey party people! We got a hella ice storm where I'm at and the internets been down for the past three days. I'm on an internet hotspot with my laptop. I knew I was addicted to the web but this has been torture!

It's my experience that there's nothing wrong with a day one pressure vote to put someone at L-1. After the first day then you gotta be more careful about it. As I said...my opinion.

I've heard rumors that my internet at home should be back on. I'll post more later if that's the case. If you don't hear from me then it's cause the rumors were false (60,000 mediacom subscribers have been without internet but I can't complain too badly...we have two or three pockets of our county that are without electricity and heat.)
And I'm spent...

I see that as unlikely to be honest.

Anyway I feel that CS is town here, if he is mafia he has sure risked a lot of unneccesary negative attention on himself. It would be reckless for a mafia to play that way in my opinion. I don't agree with all of his ideas of how to find mafia but I beleive he was genuinely trying to get the game flowing when it was stuttering and trying to find mafia in his own way.I don't agree with the reasons given for voting him. I have also noticed that my top suspects are voting for him.
Anyway I hope I have made my position clear earlier. I would like to see Jedikinight lynched, I beleive he is a mafia member.
I will also support a lynch on Nobody Special as I am also highly suspicious of him, although Jediknight is my preference. I have doubts about Bacon and Wredfar but not enough to support a lynch against them.
With that, I will announce that I am
V/LA from the 4'th to the 7'th
. I will post on the 7'th if the day is still in progress by then.
