@Mod: Can you send Circus a PM saying that the deadline is in two days?

His last post (I think) said that F&L deadline was closer, which was why he wasn't posting here. F&L ends on 26th. Lost ends on 24th.

Circus has received a PM reminding him of the deadline.

Also, I won't be here for the last part of the 23rd, so if you're gonna wagon shift, make sure you have enough people that are actually here to do it O_O.

I'd hate having to lynch an inactive player after some of the fruitful discussion we've had toDay. Would be OK with lynching anybody out of Circus, Soup and Kata for activity reasons [since frozen has checked in I'm guessing he'll keep up].

Unvote

KevMo you better come up with some solid scum-list. Chances are, it might become very handy soon - I take it you understand what I'm referring to, I don't wanna openly spell it out for everybody to see but you should know why. Please get to it asap

^um why is rajam not included on your list?

Honestly, the only reason I didn't toss him on there was because that was when I was bordering on rage and I wasn't sure if I was maybe reading into things too much and wanted to let town decide but get my thoughts out. At this point I'd be perfectly happy with his lynch.

The only thing I can think of is faking content when it comes to twisting my actions. I think it was pretty blatantly clear that I wasn't putting my effort into defending myself so much as trying to make my point about EE, so I'm not sure what he stood to gain.
well... I accept this. I see the bolded too. Why red ruy over glyph now? Would you consider joining? Btw i'm not sure why the soup read is meaningful to you at this stage. Feels clingy.
_

@Ryu:

I like Ryker after his responses to how Mentos and Glyph interacted.
Anyways, I'd like a reason for why people think Glyph and Mentos interaction was staged, it doesn't come off to me as SvS at all. If anything I can only see TvS at worst.
curiously... why is it that you like ryker from this? He hasn't explained why mentos/glyph could be SvS...

Also agree with mentos partly... your conclusions strike me as being not well thought out. keen to hear your explanations.
_

@gorf: circus/auspher/chaco/ryker/kev(?)/now frozen have all laid down their struggles to post (johns... whatever this lingo this). It happens. I don't really accept a point like this against me specifically.

Regarding EE: it's from the gambit. I saw a word choice on mentos previously as being "slippery" - he asked for reads on mentos before this as well. I thought he was considering him as a potential suspect consequently - the gambit I saw as the climax to a buildup, in a way :awesome: I liked this follow-through. "Scared to like" was just a phrase pertaining to his reputation of being able to fool people - this makes me naturally scared. Now he needs to answer my questions.

currently re-evaluating a few things regarding mentos/glyph. I was looking into their solo actions mainly. Glyph for the way he nosedived in on mentos, cocky galore and looking all irrational. mentos because why wouldn't he follow through on someone "twisting his actions", especially claiming previously that glyph had slipped under his radar...? etc. I can see an instance of SvS but I need more info. Shame glyph is not responding to anything I'm asking him... :woman: I want him dead. where did your second question come from curiously? =?

Your list of alignments was ordered... what made glyph above mentos? what made frozen above the other 'inactives'? What made ryker town when he didn't supply you the answers you wanted from your questions? Have there been any advancements from this list?

Circus at L-2. Totally deserved due to inactivity and pursuing easy targets with not very-well developed cases. Not putting him at L-1 though to avoid a quick-hammer meanwhile we wait for him to post along with other people.

Gorf, Dooms and KevM recent interventions are lacking and should at least offer some more (explained) scumpicks. Gorf has been tunneling Auspher all Day and I'm starting to get upset with that, as it could be interpreted as safe play for D1. KevinM hasn't done anything, but with his last posts he showed he has been following the game so, no johns.

I still like Gheb despite his sorta-tunneling on Red Ryu (which at least I think has higher chances of flipping scum when compared to Auspher). I'm also not against policy-lynching inactives/useless players toDay since there're several of those and I think Glyph, Circus, KevM, Soupamario are good choices, in that order. Wouldn't lynch frozenflame due to legit johns + nothing to obtain from whatever he flips... at least with the other four we can still get something. I'm not for lynching Kataefi toDay since I'm leaning slightly town on him due to his latest post. I'll have to bite my tongue now and recognize Acrostic's chances of being scum are low after his claim, and if he is gonna get replaced, the least motives to lynch him.

Seems Evil Eye has relaxed too much after a good start... not liking. Evil Eye, we're against the time and we need a lynch happening. Options? @Mentos, Auspher and Gorf: same question.

Ryker is town but I hate, among several things I dislike of his play style, how he handles his town reads which aren't doing anything:


Vote Jerkus

Completely willing to lynch. Would also vote Kat. Would also vote Gorf, but only after the other two. Would not vote GLife based on meta information.
Ryker, please don't clear people on meta and let them do whatever they want, specially when they are being inactive/useless/anti-town. You either hold hands with them, or guide them, pressure them, make them talk, etc. but you just can't let those guys remain in the same place, being useless. For example, if you think Glyph is town (or at least not worth lynching), you can't be comfortable with how the guy is currently playing. With your statement on the quote you're basically giving him a free pass to continue with this behavior of not even reading the game. You also had the doubt if mentos vs. Glyph was staged so I don't know why you come now to let the guy live. Regarding Gorf, your dislike towards him is because of his tunneling (what I said above about him), or there is something else?

mentos... I'm not convinced by your explanation of your suspicion on Soup at all really, and if possible, could you explain a little further other than "guts"? I can understand your point about the amount of reads offered, but I still think there's a fair chance that you'll flip scum based on previous accusations, like how you treated Auspher, EE's observations of your general behavior on which I agree, and the lack of further explanations on your scum picks when you "died", things on which I'll still insist regardless of your already-explained defense. This said, at this point I'm leaning towards a policy-lynch on inactives as our best course of action, specially on the four players I mentioned above. If Circus saves his *** on this one, I'd like to know if you'd support a lynch on Glyph or KevM (?)

With the game advancing slowly, I think we need to send a clear message that we should not tolerate inactives and lack of content. Death to Glyph, Circus and KevinM! :mad088:

I'm not going to push my scum picks when theres 24 hours left in the day (for me). Especially if I won't be here for most of the last day to push them further or explain them more.

I'm simply voting Circus because I don't want a no lynch.

just read your post rajam. i like your lynch choices, except for the part where you missed out mentos and said there's a fair chance he'll flip scum. was something holding you back there?

also if ryker's play is causing you to ask so many questions, is there another part of his play that is justifying your town read? could you elaborate on your town read on ryker plz?

Y u no quote :scared:

@first para, k.

@ second para, ehh... Ill read more into this later when im not busy but it seems like a contradiction from hindsight (idk if thats even how ou spell that)

@ third para, i get your POV wrt Glyph, but your mentos stance seems kinda like a backpedal, like, as if he can ONLY be scum if glyph scum (cuz of the whole why didnt he follow through schpeel). Clarify please. Oh and i dont know what my 2nd question was and im too lazy to look it up lol. ill get to it in a bit (hopefully), remind me if i dont.

Why the Gorf vote?

Oh wait that's right you're not scumhunting/reading/caring/blarg... Am I wrong?
Because you're changing your vote like Lady Gaga changes hairstyles. Make a case for someone and just stick with it.

Glyph above mentos because Glyph has the bonus of being useless, inactive and anti-town, so I'd lynch him first.

frozen is the neutral point. Players above him were leaning more scum than town. The other inactives didn't cause me any positive impression so they are there because I'd lynch them before lynching frozen.

I consider Ryker town due his playstyle so far in which he asks concise questions and also because our reads became pretty similar without any sheeping (some exceptions, but overall they're similar), plus a little of meta also from Dexter and Super Heroes. Ryker not answering direct questions is Ryker being Ryker but I'll insist and hope he answers them briefly.


just read your post rajam. i like your lynch choices, except for the part where you missed out mentos and said there's a fair chance he'll flip scum. was something holding you back there?

First question: No, I used that wording because my suspicion on mentos dropped a little after reading his responses and defense, but that doesn't mean I'm discarding him as scum; he's still around the top of my scumpicks.

Here's what's up.

I have not been able to keep up with this game and it looks like I'm getting lynched now. Which I get, since I've been so inactive. I was actually going to finally cave and request a replacement right now, but it's ****ty to do that if my slot's just going to die anyway.

I'm sincerely sorry for the inactivity, but I really just have not had enough time to dedicate basically any of it to trying to analyze a game this size alongside Fire&Lightning and work and holiday family shenanigans. Something had to suffer and this game was it. And it's not getting any better. So if I get lynched, then I guess I get lynched; it's pretty late in the Day to swing to someone else and since I'm not up to speed on anything, I wouldn't know who to suggest. If not, then Tanny can put one of those replacements to good use, because I have zero motivation to make up for what I've missed right now. That's the truth of it. I've never done this before, but right now, this game is just more than I can keep on my plate.

I'll get to the Ryu over Glyph stuff at the bottom of the post

Soup read is really clingy in a way. I don't know why I can't bring myself to shake it, because at this point it is a gut read that I can't really articulate reasoning for. There are much better targets for today regardless, and by D2 I should either have found out what's feeling wrong about him or shook it outta my head.

mentos... I'm not convinced by your explanation of your suspicion on Soup at all really, and if possible, could you explain a little further other than "guts"? I can understand your point about the amount of reads offered, but I still think there's a fair chance that you'll flip scum based on previous accusations, like how you treated Auspher, EE's observations of your general behavior on which I agree, and the lack of further explanations on your scum picks when you "died", things on which I'll still insist regardless of your already-explained defense. This said, at this point I'm leaning towards a policy-lynch on inactives as our best course of action, specially on the four players I mentioned above. If Circus saves his *** on this one, I'd like to know if you'd support a lynch on Glyph or KevM (?)
As I mentioned above, I really can't elaborate on Soup further than that. I honestly don't know why he's stuck in my head as potentially scum and want to re-read him to try to figure it out, but right now it's just a gut read through and through.

As for explanations, I'm not a big fan of restating why I think people are a good lynch, especially on D1, so that'll wait for now. But regardless, you have mentioned that you don't like that I didn't give elaboration on all of them a couple times now. Is that scummy or just preference? What if I had tried to restate my reasons for all of them and been ninja'd by Tando announcing me dead and not gotten them out there at all? I very rarely see people explain all their reads every time they restate them, so I'm not sure why you have made it such a big issue XD

I understand Circus' situation, but this is a really crappy position to be in. Do we push forward with his lynch without hearing a claim/getting a legitimate response, or do we try to move lynches in the next day and a half and let a replacement get a shot(deadline extension from replacing wouldn't help very much IMO, since it stretches right through Christmas weekend)?

I would love to see a push to Ryu or Glyph personally. I originally voted Ryu over Glyph in my last post because I felt based on the conversations of the day he would be the more likely lynch, but I'll lay my vote on either if town is willing to move in one of those directions.

@Ryker: I really don't give a **** if Glyph hasn't read the thread. I get that he hasn't. Frankly, these days, that's a null tell for glyph.

Like I said I've been giving him tons of room to do his thing and he keeps aggressively not playing the ****ing game. At least in his DR game he was engaging the ongoing material. Now he's just playing like a non-reading version of J with the hamfisted theatrics and it's getting under my skin.

Probably too late to switch to mentos and end up with a meaningful wagon. And I don't know what the **** to make of Jerkus's excuses. Like they're probably legit, but the fact that he made an effort to play earlier and latched onto the easy targets for half-***** reasons still rubs me the wrong way. Which leads to all the ugly WIFOM of whether he would actually make a post so meta-manipulative as his last one if he were scum.

Which funny enough is a question half of you testicle truffles are making me ask several times a day.

I've sent a PM to the replacements to see if they are willing to take over if Circus lives to N1. Further details when I get them.

Okay, so since the meta information is floating around everywhere. I'm hydra'd with GLife in Portal and I can't get him to play. We continue to get distracted everytime. Circus is in Fire and Lightening and was almost lynched until he claimed. There you go.

At this point, we need to get rid of a question mark. Vig needs to be on point and cop does too. I want night actions reducing the number of nulls if at all possible. I'm down with Circus, GLife, or Kat. If you think Circus caving and replacing out will result in something that could redeem the slot, then let's do that. It's the only reason I'm not voting FF at the moment.

Vote Glyph

No reason not to try. I'll be here to switch back if necessary.

You'd have to sell me hard on a Mentos lynch to make it worth more to me based on what we have here. Lynching someone that yields more information over lynching a null is something I would generally support, but I don't see it being significant enough in this game to make up for it.

The game will pick up after Christmas, but that could easily be too late. People need to actually show up.

Not sure how any can have me lower than anyone else as top choice for lynch if inactivity is the criteria. Unless someone is literally being shown to be actively lurking and not just an inactive PoS like myself.

For what it's worth, regarding Glyph, IIRC in Cowboy Bebop mafia in the BR I replaced him and he was fairly non-committal/inactive in that game too. He was an indy there. Is his "aggressive inactivity" here similar to what people who were in Cowboy Bebop remember from that game? Could be something to look at.

As for Circus, not too sure how to takes his apologetic but at the same time not remorseful tone. Also the fact that he's basically given up but also didn't think just outright claiming at this point while deadline approaches was a good idea kind of surprises me. If you aren't going to replace and think you're going to die anyway, why not claim? Might as well give us more info to work with so we can make a better decision with what little time we have left. Def strange to me.

Also @ Ryker I won't be replacing out unless I'm forced to (which I don't plan on happening). My activity can and will only get better from here.

Soup read is really clingy in a way. I don't know why I can't bring myself to shake it, because at this point it is a gut read that I can't really articulate reasoning for. There are much better targets for today regardless, and by D2 I should either have found out what's feeling wrong about him or shook it outta my head.



As I mentioned above, I really can't elaborate on Soup further than that. I honestly don't know why he's stuck in my head as potentially scum and want to re-read him to try to figure it out, but right now it's just a gut read through and through.

As for explanations, I'm not a big fan of restating why I think people are a good lynch, especially on D1, so that'll wait for now. But regardless, you have mentioned that you don't like that I didn't give elaboration on all of them a couple times now. Is that scummy or just preference? What if I had tried to restate my reasons for all of them and been ninja'd by Tando announcing me dead and not gotten them out there at all? I very rarely see people explain all their reads every time they restate them, so I'm not sure why you have made it such a big issue XD

I understand Circus' situation, but this is a really crappy position to be in. Do we push forward with his lynch without hearing a claim/getting a legitimate response, or do we try to move lynches in the next day and a half and let a replacement get a shot(deadline extension from replacing wouldn't help very much IMO, since it stretches right through Christmas weekend)?

I would love to see a push to Ryu or Glyph personally. I originally voted Ryu over Glyph in my last post because I felt based on the conversations of the day he would be the more likely lynch, but I'll lay my vote on either if town is willing to move in one of those directions.
I'll remind you later to tell if you got something from your Soup re-read.

Regarding the explanations, I've played with Omni 3 times, and in those 3 times he was scum. Omni was all day saying things like "this guy can die", without adding further explanations. Last game (Super Mario RPG) I specially noticed this, and started to question him about explaining his reads, nonetheless Omni ignored those requests and still continued with the simple "this guy can die" sentences. Hence I find it scummy, and hence I don't like that. I can understand if you're not explaining your reads in all your posts; personally my memory is kinda foggy and I tend to forget some stuff so that's why I like to ask a lot about reads and scumpicks; helps me also to see what each player is up to.

This reminds me...

Ryker, explain your original vote on Auspher, and your read on Gorf :mad088:

Okay, so since the meta information is floating around everywhere. I'm hydra'd with GLife in Portal and I can't get him to play. We continue to get distracted everytime. Circus is in Fire and Lightening and was almost lynched until he claimed. There you go.

At this point, we need to get rid of a question mark. Vig needs to be on point and cop does too. I want night actions reducing the number of nulls if at all possible. I'm down with Circus, GLife, or Kat. If you think Circus caving and replacing out will result in something that could redeem the slot, then let's do that. It's the only reason I'm not voting FF at the moment.

Vote Glyph

No reason not to try. I'll be here to switch back if necessary.

You'd have to sell me hard on a Mentos lynch to make it worth more to me based on what we have here. Lynching someone that yields more information over lynching a null is something I would generally support, but I don't see it being significant enough in this game to make up for it.

The game will pick up after Christmas, but that could easily be too late. People need to actually show up.
Add Soup and KevinM on that vig-able list. I also prefer always to lynch plain scumness regardless of inactivity on D1 but this is getting upsetting, with so many people inactive with little posts and content, so I think it's absolutely fine to lynch a player with a mixture of scumness + inactivity/useless. Circus and Glyph are the top 2 candidates that fall in that category imo, KevM is a close 3rd place. I don't care to recognize at this point that I'm fully going for a policy-lynch; hopefully players will stop with this and actually play D2.

Not sure how any can have me lower than anyone else as top choice for lynch if inactivity is the criteria. Unless someone is literally being shown to be actively lurking and not just an inactive PoS like myself.

For what it's worth, regarding Glyph, IIRC in Cowboy Bebop mafia in the BR I replaced him and he was fairly non-committal/inactive in that game too. He was an indy there. Is his "aggressive inactivity" here similar to what people who were in Cowboy Bebop remember from that game? Could be something to look at.

As for Circus, not too sure how to takes his apologetic but at the same time not remorseful tone. Also the fact that he's basically given up but also didn't think just outright claiming at this point while deadline approaches was a good idea kind of surprises me. If you aren't going to replace and think you're going to die anyway, why not claim? Might as well give us more info to work with so we can make a better decision with what little time we have left. Def strange to me.

Also @ Ryker I won't be replacing out unless I'm forced to (which I don't plan on happening). My activity can and will only get better from here.
I've stated my reasons before of why you're not in the pile of inactives-that-can-die category. Legit johns + we get nothing from your death; at least with the others we still can draw something.

I also noticed the lack of claim on Circus. That's why he can still die and I'd prefer a replacement for Acrostic instead and reserve the other for future due to many inactives still around.

So, Circus or Glyph? open question

Ryker, this is a large, and you're not going to get 6 more votes in 24 hours.l

I won't be here to switch to Circus if Glyph doesn't fall through, and I don't see how 6 votes are gonna magically go onto Glyph, so I'm keeping my vote where it is.

IF ANYONE FEELS THEY NEED TO REPLACE OUT IMMEDIATELY, J IS WILLING TO REPLACE IN.

I will extend the Day phase if this offer is accepted.

I thank my players for participating. I realize that sometimes Real Life gets in the way and a game must take second place to that. I just ask people keep communicating with me and we'll work together so everyone had fun.

Thanks!

Actually feeling really bad about how I've played this game now, reading.
