There are a few things that I'd like to mention in regards to KK and why I start having second thoughts about lynching him:You were the first person to make a case against steel. Has karthik's plays since then convinced you otherwise?
I think your missing the point. It's like this:1)We lost cacti only cause of stupidness of himself. Everyone else: fate was against them
Majority is against it anyways.2) Massclaim is still bad.
If I investigated a guilty would I have gotten an Ino.
Also I'm not Officer Wiggums.
I'm Lou, of the Eddy and Lou gang, the springfield police officers.
He's the Sergeant and is from his wiki MORE competent then Wiggums.
On the right.
That guy.
Way to try and undue my claim before its made, looking scummier by the minute.
He quickly attacks Jungle for mistaking him for not only Wiggums, but accusing him of being paranoid/insane. The funny thing is that he now actually admits to possibly being paranoid/insane, even though he's Lou, who is more 'efficient' then Wiggums.1. My guess is probably to keep the WIFOM for you guys. If scum was smart they'd leave me alive so that discussion is once again surrounding me and whether my claim is a lie or not. As for the jungle incident, I'm either Paranoid, or insane. I'd say that there was a possibility I was bus driven or something, but I'm highly skeptical of that and don't even want to toy with that situation.
n1 result?
So yeah, Marshy didn't even recruit no one N1. Which leaves Gheb a bit more suspicious in my book again.Tracked you, it told me you went no where.
I doubt Gheb has forgotten about this and is just trying to seem useful.Kevin if you're cop, why are you still alive and why did you get a guilty on Jungle?
Mentos, you said lynching Jungle will give us guaranteed info. So what new info do we have now?
How many masons are still alive?
I also really don't like this. You're accusing Kev of leading a lynch on karthik? Really? You were the one who put the pieces together on that one, and I came to the same conclusion on D2. And even if you only want to talk about toDay, my first post of toDay wasGheb said:Kevin seems to have no problem with lynching KK although yesterDay he said he found me more scummy. Now that the WIFOM game has started he just jumps on KK, the most convenient lynch for toDay - and people follow him just like that? Really?
Just because Kev voted first doesn't mean that anyone who also votes karthik is "following" Kev. The only reason I haven't voted is because I don't want to put him at L-2 yet.McFox said:I'm still convinced that karthik is the play.
Maybe so, but that doesn't help Gheb's predictiment at the slightest. Beginning of D3, he calls out to who was masoned when no one was masoned at all.Also Rockin, just because Marshy went nowhere doesn't necessarily mean he was blocked. From what I understand, most of the time if a recruiter picks someone in the mafia they are instantly killed. Marshy may not have been confident enough about anyone at the end of D1 to risk it.
The only thing I'm pointing at is that you argued against Junglefever that you were not Wiggums and that you was not a paranoid/insane cop on D2. And now, on D3, you feel that you're a paranoid/insane cop.I didn't admit to POSSIBLY being insane/paranoid. The only option is paranoid/insane. Unless you want to make the argument that I was Yak'd. Which is the only option of me being anti-town.
So if you want to argue that your UN CC'd roleblocked Cop is Yak'd go that way. But don't try and push really stupid angles like, you said you didn't think you were insane paranoid and after the guy you got the guilty on flipped town you said you were.
I know you're not told in your PM whether you're insane or paranoid. Your only way of finding out is seeing the investigation and, if they're mafia, see the result of the lynch. That part I'm not putting you at fault at. However, you were very confident that you got a guilty on Junglefever and argued that Lou is more efficient then Wiggums, only to soon see the result that Junglefever is town, you claimed to have been roleblocked, and you saying you're insane or paranoid. Those are the only things I'm having a hard time feeling whether you're town or not.You're REALLY reaching here man.
I'm not told if I'm paranoid, insane, or sane. I get a guilty as Lou a cop who's wiki says he's much more proficient then Wiggums.
We lynch the person I have a guilty on.
He turns up town.
Obviously something went wrong there. I admitted the two most likely outcomes with a third possible UNLIKELY outcome.
Unfortunately I was not allowed to test what theory is correct due to being role blocked which basically puts me out here for you guys to decide my fate.
However your line of reasoning here is reaching at it's finest. I don't know if it's a scumtell but I certainly don't agree with what you're trying to pressure.
Well, your only argument against Gheb so far seems to be:In anycase, what does everyone think about the thing I pointed up in terms of Gheb?
That he asked about the mason situation at the beginning of the day. Kev and I both called him out on it thinking that he was asking the masons to claim. However, I think frozen hit the nail on the head:Rockin said:Maybe so, but that doesn't help Gheb's predictiment at the slightest. Beginning of D3, he calls out to who was masoned when no one was masoned at all.
Vote: Gheb
This seems to be the correct answer. Gheb wasn't asking for the masons to claim, he simply thought that the town might know the nature of the masonry, and was asking for what he thought was already publicly-available information. I gotta agree with Kev that you're reaching, both about him and about Gheb.frozen said:FF feels that Gheb's question about the mason's was directed at everyone as a whole, as if to procure that information if it was publicly available. It seemed as if it was more of an operational question than a question targeted at the remaining masons.
Etc.
I then remembered something else, and it does confirm that we do have a roleblocker. However, this doesn't help add on where KevinM's alignment currently stands.
So yeah, Marshy didn't even recruit no one N1. Which leaves Gheb a bit more suspicious in my book again.
I doubt Gheb has forgotten about this and is just trying to seem useful.
Why is it so hard for you to believe that I simply forgot about it? Is that all it takes for you to vote me?Maybe so, but that doesn't help Gheb's predictiment at the slightest. Beginning of D3, he calls out to who was masoned when no one was masoned at all.
Vote: Gheb
We still don't actually know if there's a roleblocker or not.I still don't see how lynching Kev would've been a better option than lynching jungle. The problem was that we didn't know there was a roleblocker; we were counting on Kev's second investigation to give us some answers (that was probably our biggest mistake, in hindsight).
Of course it's WIFOM. That's the very nature of a Yak. Your concern about unsuspcious people not necessarily being yakked has merit but I still don't see why we shouldn't concern ourselves with it. Last time I checked we need to kill all scumbags to win this game and the yakked player is a scumbag too - WIFOM or not.As for the talk about figuring out who was yakked, that's going to be next to impossible. Every single thing you could bring up about who could be yakked is going to be steeped in WIFOM. The yak happened on the first night, and even then, Gheb, you imply that the person who got yakked would be someone who wasn't suspicious D1. But, since the mafia would anticipate us knowing that, mightn't they then pick someone who was a little suspicious, since those people wouldn't be in our "list of potential yaks" pool? Etc. 100% WIFOM
Just to be clear: I never said we shouldn't lynch KK. I just said that I'd prefer to lynch the Yakked player toDay to have as little WIFOM as possible to deal with toMorrow - if we find the yakked player that is. I'm saying it again but we have to find the yakked player sooner or later or else we can't win this game. Nobody likes to deal with WIFOM but what else can we do to find the yakked player?I also really don't like this. You're accusing Kev of leading a lynch on karthik? Really? You were the one who put the pieces together on that one, and I came to the same conclusion on D2. And even if you only want to talk about toDay, my first post of toDay was
Just because Kev voted first doesn't mean that anyone who also votes karthik is "following" Kev. The only reason I haven't voted is because I don't want to put him at L-2 yet.
I don't know what you're "focused" on in regards to me. The fact that I asked about the mechanics of a mason? Or a very minor remark from yesterDay that has absolutely no meaning at all?I'll admit that if you're lynched, whether how you come up will be some valuable info. Such as, if you're really town, there is indeed a roleblocker and has possibly roleblocked Marshy...not to mention KK could indeed be scum. If you're mafia, that would clear KK (IMO, at least) cause I doubt you'd want to wagon your own buddy in the kind of situation you're in (maybe more focus to Gheb if he lives D3).
Even so, I rather not lynch you (least not at this moment) cause I'm very unsure where you stand. Right now, I'm more focused on Gheb if anything else.
It's a true reason against it and will be used. Now I ask you this kevin, Do you think anyone would claim scum in this game? Claims are absolutely pointless.I'm against claims, but it seems like your shutdown of the claim was just this cocky "everyone will claim town" which is like the most unneeded post in the world.
This is exactly what I've been saying. We can't just lynch KK now because we'll have 0 opinions/info on all but 1 living player toMorrow. We need to think of other options for toMorrow before we lynch him.Just a curious question.
If KK turns up town, who should we focus on? The same question if he comes up maf. Let's not end the day too fast now >>
I'm not backing off at all. Have you even been reading my most recent posts? The only things I've been saying were:Well, I don't think Gheb would've built up such a case against kk to bus him, so if kk turns up maf, that basically clears Gheb in my book. On the other hand, I find it odd that, even though Gheb was the first one to bring up karthik, he's now backing off. So I wonder if kk turns up town, does that mean that Gheb didn't want to be seen leading a lynch on a townie?
No. We need to look at them now and once we have some good info/opinions on them or the deadline approaches we can lynch KK (unless we find the Yak first for some reason). KK being actually town is a possibility scares me but it's still unlikely. I just want people to analyze each other and the game so far to see what they think of each other. If we fail to do this now we'll start toMorrow empty handed.Also, as Gheb had pointed out somewhat recently, there are people in this game who've barely been scrutinized at all. Me, you, frozen, and mentos pretty much. Out of the people remaining, Kev has been talked about to death, and most people have weighed in on kk one way or the other. If kk comes up town, I'm going to be looking closely at the other players who are left.
Why do we HAVE to find the Yak, any scum is good at this point.
I can't follow your thought process at all. Are you saying that we shouldn't find the yakked player but a scumbag? Newsflash: It's the same thing!Yeah, first of all it will be completely impossible to search for the yakked player, and very, very possibly less beneficial to us than finding another scum.
Can't see how this is the case. Finding the yakked player doesn't stop us from lynching the other scumbag first (even though I admittedly said something different before).Most times a yak turns someone into a goon, so the original maf are the ones who might have powers, finding the yakked is like avoiding the potentially powered maf.
I don't see how people don't understand this . You just need to look at everything since D1 to see how obvious it is:As for the KK lynch, well, I've seen this happen one too many times, and I'm not entirely confident that it isn't just standard KK fare, but let's see what happens.
Right now we have too much WIFOM to deal with to allow the Yak to live and I doubt that KK is the Yak so I really want everybody to consider all options we have before we vote.
Just to be clear: I never said we shouldn't lynch KK. I just said that I'd prefer to lynch the Yakked player toDay to have as little WIFOM as possible to deal with toMorrow - if we find the yakked player that is. I'm saying it again but we have to find the yakked player sooner or later or else we can't win this game. Nobody likes to deal with WIFOM but what else can we do to find the yakked player?
Emphasis mine. Now, these are you're last three posts before you say you can't follow mine and Kev's logic about not being able to look for the yakked player in particular. In each one you make reference to how you would "rather lynch the yakked player" or something along the lines. Major contradiction between that and you saying you couldn't follow me or Kev because the yakked player is the same thing as a scumbag, which is EXACTLY what we were saying, and the opposite of what you were. Response?I'm not backing off at all. Have you even been reading my most recent posts? The only things I've been saying were:
- We should not lynch KK before we have talked about all remaining players.
- I don't think KK is the Yak
- I'd rather lynch the Kak toDay than KK if we get that option
No. We need to look at them now and once we have some good info/opinions on them or the deadline approaches we can lynch KK (unless we find the Yak first for some reason). KK being actually town is a possibility scares me but it's still unlikely. I just want people to analyze each other and the game so far to see what they think of each other. If we fail to do this now we'll start toMorrow empty handed.
Read my latest posts: I was wrong, you were right. We should lynch KK first.Emphasis mine. Now, these are you're last three posts before you say you can't follow mine and Kev's logic about not being able to look for the yakked player in particular. In each one you make reference to how you would "rather lynch the yakked player" or something along the lines. Major contradiction between that and you saying you couldn't follow me or Kev because the yakked player is the same thing as a scumbag, which is EXACTLY what we were saying, and the opposite of what you were. Response?
What would you gain from my lynch? All you would gain is a dead townie. WE should of gone with Kev yesterday. No WIFOM to worry about, we would have known jungle's claim to be true, and we could focus on scumhunting.steel didn't just "play poorly." If that were the case, we'd have nothing on you. What steel did was clearly jump ship from Riddle (the mafia yakuza) to Cacti (nerfed doc/watcher) for no reason when it looked like the lynch was about to swing towards Riddle. You're right that it puts you personally in a bad spot, but that's just the way it is. Not to mention that nothing you've done yet has convinced me that you are in fact town. All you've contributed to the game so far are things that everyone already knows. You haven't attempted to scumhunt really at all, you've just been sitting back and letting the day progress, only responding to the topic when someone actively calls your name. That says to me that you're attempting to coast in the hopes that more active players will take the spotlight. IMHO, you should've been lynched yesterday.
KHonestly, it'd be a lot easier to tell who to go after tomorrow once we see what karthik flips, and what ends up happening during the night. I'll have my suspicions on different people depending on what happens to kk. If he flips scum like I assume he will, I know exactly who's next in line for me. If he does end up flipping town, then I'll have to re-evaluate things.
I already commented on that before but I find Rockin/Frozen more likely to be scum than Mentos/McFox. You're right though that a lot depends on KKs flip.And Gheb, can you ever just have something to say? You are never the first one to take a stand on something. All you do is constantly ask everyone else questions, and wait to see their responses before answering yourself.
Please, answer your own questions.
