At this point I think the best flip is mmt and a no lynch is an extremely bad outcome

Everyone has taken a clear side on the issue and I think it will reveal a lot more than any other lynch at this point

We have 3 hours folks and it's bullshit that we have 4 min voters

Hey, I'm around I just haven't voted yet. This is a pretty tough call between the three current vote leaders.

I do think one of them is very like to be scum, but I'm just not sure which at the moment.

Don't fuckin rush me Moat jeez.

If I must make a call between the top three I would like to ##vote merk because I feel as if his pushiness on Lupus is really weird when Lupus' answer seemed perfectly satisfactory. I feel like he's trying to fish for a weird contradiction in Lupus' behavior when there isn't one.

EccoRaven posted:

it's apparently a standard announcement coming from Old England.

this is a good point.

This is an agreement with a point that is questionable at best, and may be indicative of attempting to buddy to a new player.

EccoRaven posted:


you're overstating my stance.


sarcastically saying "you got me, I'm scum" is definitely something a scum player would say, though, so


This is a weird thing to say, because Ecco is simulataneously saying that I am overstating Ecco's stance by saying Ecco agrees with Tolly, and then also saying it is a good point that Ecco agrees with. These two lines don't really work together.

EccoRaven posted:

I'm fine with my vote on mmt. I think mmt is a vote that can happen, so I'm not particularly motivated to change it. I think her reaction to Moat's posts were a little ridiculous and I've gotten a weird vibe from her early-day posts.

you guys caught me though. my comment to Tolly Totes was because I agreed with the point, but I also wanted to throw a bone to a new player who made a nice point. sue me for being encouraging!

I'll be out for the deadline - dinner and a movie with a special someone - but I'll be around this afternoon.

This both reinforces that Ecco agree agrees with the post, but also had an underlying motive, however I think Ecco is concealing the actual intent here.

It's not the strongest case, no, few day one cases would be, but this is my thought. I do think Ecco is the most likely to be scum.

Actual case:
1. Sounds manufactured;
2. Did gotcha scum hunting on me;
3. Voted MMT with a case that I don't really think he believes in which starts from a joke vote;
4. Kept the MMT vote with justification that it's a lynch "that can happen."

So, cutting out the first one because it's based on meta, sounds like merk is voting for ecco because he doesn't believe ecco's vote on MMT is genuine, doesn't like ecco's justification, and that ecco tried to pin merk as scum based off of merk sarcastically saying "yep you caught me I'm scum."

Think I've cooled off on Moat for now, but I disagree with his interpretation of MMT's posts.

I don't put much stake in the sarcasm thing. Hm. I think ecco is town. I don't like this case, especially since it came minutes after merk votes for lupus, saying it was a good vote. ##vote merk

Xad, I'd like you to go read through Ecco in isolation and look at how she puts a jokey vote on MMT and then a bit later goes, I'm fine with my vote and gives more justification for it.

I'm not really sure that I like the way that plays out.

And I don't really buy the theory Ecco throws out about MMT/merk being scum together. Why would both of them link themselves so early to push Ecco as a lynch?

Ecco is saying he’s gone for the night which means he isn’t claiming if he approaches lynch. It’s a tactic.

Ok, here's the matter. It's 1.40 AM here, so I won't be up until deadline. Of the three voteleaders, I stand behind MMT sounding the most scummy to me, then Ecco. merk feels like overaggressive town, and his insistence in getting somebody lunched reinforces that for me.

I don’t know if I understand it. I’d rather focus on one thing at a time though instead of trying to connect people already. If I had to guess a teammate for Merk it would be Keane, given the how hard he’s been defending him, but that’s obviously not a lot.
