##vote merk

merk's scum. I don't like his vote on Taste yesterday, he's playing this game safe with his casing. Mushroom, SoS, and Taste are his votes, all for cases pushed by other people or for singular posts that he calls scummy in vacuum. He's not looking for context or thinking about the game as a whole, he's just looking for cases to appear like he's scumhunting.

I agree with this. Hate to poo poo and run but ##vote Merk

I agree with Bryers and then he changes his vote to me. Interesting.

I don't much care participating in the GBS-Lite spam especially when I'm online all day and every time I look at this thread it has another 100 new posts.

Being a dick early on isn't so great for day phase but it does keep you from getting randomly night killed which will help get me through down to the end when there's fewer people, which is far easier to pick out scum based on vote histories and choice posts.

Telling you all of this hurts this game for me, but I'm not too stressed about this one. Go nuts.

Merk is scum and Met actually is the SK.

##vote Merk

If this were true, you should lynch the SK first. That's one of the two nightkills removed each night, good for town.

Getting a "scum" and then the SK would be something a Mafia would prefer because it gives the SK another chance to kill a townie.

Continuing this, DGK2000, are you scum or do you just lack thinking ahead?

Except I'm assuming the SK doesn't know who the scum are, and may hit them as well. We're not sitting at -1 on anyone, so I think it's alright to have my vote on Merk at the moment. Who do you think is scum?

So Townies outnumber Scum and you're betting on the SK hitting the scum instead. Good plan.

Your strategy of being a dick is the self-serving part that was just the latest in posts that irked me, why did you jokeclaim SK or explain your "strategy"? These weren't your best options either. I don't understand any of what you're doing in the slightest.

Do go on about the guy joke claiming SK on day 1 being completely serious.

I'm more concerned with the people than didn't vote Merk than I am with you.

merk: King Burgundy, DGK2000, Byers2142, Met, Pinterest Mom, Puntification, CommaToes
Met: Dr. Hurt, Tremendous Taste, merk
Hurt: Farbror
Farbror: bowmore

Non-Voters: CCKeane

Hurt, TT, and bowmore are the highest on my list, for what it's worth.

Tossing up ##vote: Dr. Hurt for now because I saw his name bolded a few times more than anyone else so far and he's on my top 3 scumlist.

# ¿ Aug 11, 2014 15:26

Zesty: Jan 17, 2012; The Great Twist

Puntification posted:

Why them and not farbror or keane?

Farbhor voted Hurt and Hurt is on the scumlist. To be fair, I tie CCKeane and Farbhor #4 on that list based on that limited bit of information I used rather than trawling hundreds of pages of posts just to get a "he feels scummy" as my reasoning.

Pinterest Mom posted:

Why are you suddenly concerned with hunting scum after spending two days doing nothing but shitposting?

Because I'm Town? Because I just don't care some days? Pick whichever suits you. They're both accurate.

Only one kill last night and I am still alive. I'm sure I was supposed to be the second.

So right now I'm leaning Keane as scum, but I have a busy work day ahead of me, so a case will have to wait till later.

##vote keane

On the off chance people join me on this vote, please don't hammer early.

You could have given us a little more? It probably wouldn't have taken that long to give a brief description.

I think it's much likelier that the SK was somehow stopped than scum having multiple kills.

Met is still a good pick for that imo

Because I claimed SK on Day 1.

I like Keane for town and think he's right that pinmom's case on him is OMGUSy, I still think met is a bad guy though and would prefer to lynch him first. Met pretending lynching scum is somehow proof of alignment when both busing exists and it also benefits a SK to kill scum is just dumb. ##vote met

It does not benefit an SK to be be the sole-killer in the game.

What's more likely is that anyone latching onto the "Met is actually the SK" are Scum scrambling on the anyone-but-us plan and I was one vote off of getting lynched yesterday. So if you guys manage to lynch me, the few of you scum are just going to shrug your shoulders and act all innocent, "he acted scummy. Not my fault I led the charge."

I know this makes me anti-town in my own way, but I *DO* think it is a solid reason to accidentally lynch a townie. If we don't have strong reads on people, I gravitate towards voting out the useless, the lurkers, etc to get them out of the way and leave only people in the game who actually can be read.

You weren't making any cases of your own, all you did was hop on other votes and aggressively antagonize the other people in the game and make fun of the "serious" people who actually put effort into the games they play.

Now that there are a lot fewer people in the game, you are STILL not willing to participate. When called on it, you have a new excuse that you are tired of playing the same old game.

---

I am still completely comfortable voting Met. Honestly, if I wasn't afraid I was about to get NK'd and Merk was about to get away with snowing you all, I would have let yesterday play out as it was and let Met get lynched. We don't want to be going into LYLO with Met still lurking there as possible scum. Having said all that, I still don't think you are my priority, but I'll sleep on where I want my vote.

I'm not done on my full reread yet but I think I'm going to stop for the night to eat and watch some tv so I'll just post what I have so far.

Again, flawed. There's no reason to knowingly lynch someone you suspect is a townie but is annoying. So far, being "useless" I've lynched less townies than you have, but just as many scum. I could argue I'm playing a better game thus far.

Hey Magneto, it would really be great if you revealed so TT can achieve his win condition.

That's a pretty neat role, if it's true.

Zesty: Jan 17, 2012; The Great Twist

King Burgundy posted:

So, don't you want us to NOT lynch Magneto successfully until you have already jailed him? Doesn't that somewhat put you at odds with town?

It could also help the town if he reveals who Magneto is if he finds him.

# ¿ Aug 12, 2014 07:39

Zesty: Jan 17, 2012; The Great Twist

In fact, the only people who would be less likely to confirm they were jailed would be scum because it would be apparent that their kill did not occur the night they were jailed.
