These post counts are Horrific. This is your last warning. I will not accept any pm's asking for a replacement. If this doesn't get better I am enacting Rule 15 on Monday. Your thirst is getting the better of you. Heed the warning.

[John Snow]

Now to vote as I said I would.

 

Vote Darthe.

 

Doesn't anyone else find it suspicious that I said who I was gonna vote for, and then I died?

 

Not really, no. Seems like more of a coincidence/frame attempt to me.

Does anyone remember if peace said it would be 2 or 3 scum in total?

[John E. Kelley]

20% of 13 is closer to three, so I'd assume three.

[Sakaea]

I would also guess 3.

[Tyler Glembo]

2.6!

[Sakaea]

^^ Useless post/fluff/filler. Also willing to vote here.

[Nolder]

You know

He does post quite a bit of filler

TG is still a newbie right? Seems like something newbie Maf would do even one that likes spam

I'll roll with it today but I'm coming right back at you if he flips town Ishy

 

Unvote

Vote TG

[peacesells]

Vote count:

 

TGlems: (4) JLM, Ishy, Despo, Nolder

 

Ishy: (1) Darthe

 

Darthe: (1) Sakaea

 

Not Voting: TGlems, Rand, Kaylee, BG, John Snow.

 

With 11 alive it takes 6 to lynch.

 

Deadline is 12 PM MDT Tuesday.

[Sakaea]

TG you got anything to say? Cus I'm quite tempted to vote you. I still think Darthe is scummy mcscumster, but no one agrees with me i guess.

[John E. Kelley]

It being his first game, it might be a good idea for us to explain a little better to TG how he gave himself away? Just so he doesn't think that we're vet douchebags picking on the new guy. I'd hate to scare him away from playing again, I'm always happy to get new players.

 

Even though that should be his scummate in the QT's job.

[Nolder]

Wait is this his very first game?

I thought he'd been in other games besides this one?

[John E. Kelley]

His first I believe. I could be wrong though.

[Nolder]

Yeah no you're definitely wrong

He was in Lily's Halloween mafia as well at the least

 

If this was his first game I would give him a pass for now

But since it's not I say string him up

[John E. Kelley]

Ah. Didn't know that.

 

Then yeah, carry on. Just wanted to be decent to a first-timer. Cuz I'm a swell guy.

[John E. Kelley]

And it's pretty sad that I replaced in 10 pages into the game and I'm the third highest poster. Step up your game people.

[Kaylee]

I"m trying! Although I should now be able to keep up and post more. She's been a few days without getting sick.

[Kaylee]

Going to go back and reread.

[Kaylee]

Ok, I know I wanted to look back at Darthe so I went back to look at the end of D1 and pulled quotes.

 

First there was this:

Don't care, vote me. I have played by my judgements so far and will continue to do so. If I am to be judged for that post to the exclusion of all others then so be it.

Nothing really stood out about this to me until I kept reading...

 

Ooh, better get things rolling. Reread. My scumatron says vote Darthe. He was confused.

Was wondering about a couple of other things too, though they were probably foolish, so better sleep first. Before wondering more that is.

Nice bandwagon?

wait no, nice wasn't the word! What's the opposite of that?

I don't think two is a bandwagon. Good that the vote is nice though!

On the skimming thing, dunno, seems to me sometimes it's necessary to skim in order to get a general grasp on things or to focus on the dynamics that have caught you eye, find it hard to focus on all the exchanges sometimes. Then again a more careful approach is good as long as you don't mire yourself in stuff and forget the rest. I guess it comes down to quality of notes. I suppose it could be skummish, years ago I read that active lurking unlike passive lurking is a scumtell, though the same manuscript noted that fashions come and go. Anyway, I surmise it is easier for mafia to put a spin on things if one doesn't (or can claim one doesn't) know what exactly has happened. But still the dynamics are more important, says I.

You say this eight pages into a basic game with no roles and 13 people in it...

Gotsta give love to get love and all that... The game is not neigh lost without this information, true, but gotta chime in with thoughts.

*nigh that it, no horses here, they drink loads.

Indeed they do you silly person you! However, that matters very little. The point is, you made a generality about an undiscussed topic based on your impressions and it is both false and totally unwarranted at this time. Why?

What, unwarranted? I don't see how such a thing is unwarranted. Things need to be discussed. There's still a plethora of discussion to be had and people not having had their say before the day is done.

The day has hardly begun..

Skimming is not pro town. Ever. There is no way you think you can actually make the argument that it is.

Oh its definitely not pro town. I'm not arguing for that. I'm arguing that town is still going to do it anyways.

And now I'm all caught up.

 

Firstly, Rand m'boy, get your head outta the porn.

 

Secondly,

 

Vote GF.

You think so too eh? Does it truly warrant a vote though yet Ishy?

Yep, it does. Day One spam mode now disengaged.

Vote count:

 

Sakaea: (2) BG, Nolder

 

Nolder: (1) John Snow

 

TGlems: (2) Rand, Despo

 

Darthe: (2) JLM, GF

 

GF: (1) Ishy

 

Not Voting: Darthe, Kaylee, TGlems, Mish,

 

With 13 players it takes 7 to lynch.

 

Deadline: Thursday Noon MST.

Out of curiousity Ishy, what was your reasoning on the GF vote?

 

Because he is mafia! No, but really..

...says the man with the omgus....

 

I really could have just said read pages 8 to 10 but here are initial exchanges minus all the fluff. More to come.

He quotes all of the above just for the blue. Just before this he was arguing with I beleive it was Ishy about who lead the train on GF. Again not too much by itself. The blue bolded/underlined is what sticks out to me. I kept reading and don't see the "more to come". Where you going somewhere with that Darthe other than to just show your stance on GF?

 

Vote Ishy

 

I think he jumped into the game and threw a vote on a teammate

Notice how afterwards he really tries to trump up his involvement and take credit for the lynch but right after his vote he does everything under the sun to distract the town from paying attention to it

This guy is scum

Book it

 

You beat me to the punch. . Vote Ishy

What this^ supposed to be the promised "more"? I also got a ping from that. Anything else to add or just the quoted reason?

[Kaylee]

Now to see who was defending him.

 

I'm thinking Darthe or TG tomorrow.

 

I can get behind that JLM.

 

And he already received his Day One new guy pass.

 

Vote TG

Vote Ishy

What is this? Not much of a response, also not sure what your point in posting that was.

 

I call LLL.

 

@Despo, it won't be hard at all bug care to bring a case on TG etc?

Then the above your asking for someone else to bring a case. Sunddenly lazy? You were quick to bring up how you should be viewed as town by your posting above on GF, but since then kind of lazy about your posting. The only exception would be the vote on Ishy.

[Kaylee]

John Snow: starting from his vote

!! Nolder said Symp! He must be a symp!!

Vote Nol

Then nothing till this:

 

I agree with Kae. Scummy skimming, keeping my vote where it is.

 

Then this comment about lurking which I bolded:

I think we need to start getting some input from other people

With no cop we really can't afford to let lurkers off the hook

And that means if you're town and you're not being as active as you could be you need to stop it and keep up or asked to be replaced ASAP because you're really going to screw the game up for us if you don't

Yeah, without a cop lurking could kill town--good thing peace has the inactive rule he does in place.

Also, Nol, one vote is quite a bit of pressure in a game this small. If we say ~25% mafia, that'll be probably 3 scum, 10 town. Assuming you're town, your vote is 10% of the town vote, a significant amount.

Just like lurking, this is not a game for bandwagoning.

I quoted this to point out he then lurks! I know I am guilty of the same, I also didn't say how doing so could kill town.

*****ITCHY TRIGGER FINGER ALERT*****

 

The following are in jeopardy of rule 15.

Freudian slip there buddy? Bwahaha!

Darthe beat me to it, lolololol

This ^ I pulled because it came after being prodded by the Mod about post count. Seems like he agrees about GF but doesn't vote. This pings.

 

Insanely smart person amongst us. ^^

Or a fibber

Spam, still no vote change.

 

Vote count:

 

Sakaea: (1) BG,

 

Nolder: (1) John Snow

 

TGlems: (1) Rand,

 

Darthe: (1) GF

 

GF: (7) Ishy, Despo, Mish, JLM, Sakaea, Darthe, TGlems

 

Not Voting: Kaylee, Nolder

 

That's a lynch.

Final vote count. He never took his vote off Nol. Really pings.

Now to vote as I said I would.

 

Vote Darthe.

 

Doesn't anyone else find it suspicious that I said who I was gonna vote for, and then I died?

 

Not really, no. Seems like more of a coincidence/frame attempt to me.

Does anyone remember if peace said it would be 2 or 3 scum in total?

Asks about how many scum in the game and that's the last time he posted.

[peacesells]

The day is hot...as usual, you think to yourself. You turn and see that one of the few who were lagging behind is starting to catch back up. You chuckle. Looks like someone got a second wind. You turn forward and and stare into the sun.........

[RandA lThor]

At least Kaylee is doing it while contributing to the game.

[Darthe]

Holy shit is Kaylee actually doing a WoT? That's completely off the meta but whatever, modding can do that. Also, in response to your GF query I find that once a point is made it is useless to keep dragging it out. People seemed to get that I wasn't working with GF (or at least most were able to accept that for the time being) so posting almost every post he made would just be filler. I also find it fascinating that you are attempting to play harder than you otherwise would. Are there really only two people left on your QT?

[Darthe]

Do not know if you all noticed this from the opening post but I think it was updated.

 

5 DAYS LATER

 

Supplies are dwindling and someone or someones have been taking more than their share. 3 members of your party have already died from exposure or other circumstances. The Co-pilot died the 2nd night due to a rattle snake bite. People divided between anarchy and working together since then.

 

5 days, yes that's how long. 5 days before it's everyone for themselves. Oh it's not been spoken out loud. But it's close. Everyone has notice the missing supplies. Accusations are being voiced. Some don't look to be as affected by the elements as others.

 

Until now you've felt it best to just sit back and observe. But now, with the Co-pilot dead, you feel the need to step up for the sake of your own survival. After spending sometime convincing everyone to calm down you suggest the group takes a new inventory of the supplies and start fresh. What has happened has happened. It will be forgotten. But from now on strict rationing will take place til the group receives help.

 

This seems to settle the group. They needed a leader. As the leader you decide that each person will carry and be responsible for their own rations. Anyone going through their rations will be put out of the group.

 

That settled, you once again start your journey......

[Kaylee]

Actually Dathe I started off doing the GSoD and WoT all the time...just haven't had the time since I switched jobs and had my daughter. I have no QT, I am not mafia.
