I think I would say to my daughters if they were to ask me this question... A shitpost is the greatest gift that you can give someone, the ultimate gift of giving and don't give it to someone lightly, that's what I would say.

Anidav posted:

But TOML, you were scum last game, you should be happy about me loving up, not angry. Unless you're trying to fit in with the current snowball?

We were all thrilled with you loving up last game because you covered up a very risky nightkill with two days of solid bullshit.

Now that there situation's reversed, I'm much less willing to let you stick around and derail good debate.

Because people post whats going through their head and what was going through MC's head was "hmmmm Anidav will flip town, so if I vote for someone else if I plant the seed that those who didn't vote Anidav are town I confirm myself :neckbeard:"

Like you said it's their first day on the job and they may not have thought this through. This however is, while the biggest part, does not change the other elements of MC being scummy. Plus MC has gotten reaaaaaaaal quiet since his name started coming up, even though he only has two votes others have showed agreement with the logic so may be trying to keep his head down.

Oooooooooor he could've gone to a job interview like he said was. Or could have a life, be out, doing things, not posting.

MC Eating Disorder posted:

so far the only two people I have any reason to believe are scum at all are GSC (voted for beet, the strongest town player) and ironic sex tourist (voted for someone for what seemed like absolutely no reason) and even then I'm not nearly sure enough about either of those two to make any kind of an accusation, and I've got a job interview to go to, since I don't know how long I'm going to be gone for I'm just going to ##vote anidav (sorry dude, its for the good of the town!)

If there's no hammer by the time I get back and ongoing developments I'll consider switching but I'm pretty happy with my decision for now

You've got such a serious Sherlock boner for MC, you're really reaching. beet noting that MC had sucked up a few times was way more suss than this.

Bif is usually more eager to fling poo poo, but it was a disaster last game, and even then she still held off to prevent hammers. Still, she does seem to be playing differently.

Early hammers are bad for town, we just have to balance it so we don't accidently run out of time with 13 votes.

Indeed i did stop going for you as it gained no traction as being pragmatic is a good skill. Hell i even said so as my single vote for you was white noise among the six others and the Anidav juggernaut. There is more than one scum in this game and both you and MC are two of them as i've said. No reason to stubbornly pursue one when theres another.

It is all day one speculation, but if let's say I am wishy-washy and "this is for future days" then it's nothing more than "eh" and I might as well go with the scum and town wagon on Anidav because lets face it even the ones who are town here are voting them not because they're scum but just because they can. Maybe by putting forward thought out arguments and analysis we might actually get scum by forcing them to have to defend themselves or post. If day one was as meaningless as you say we should just skip it, lynch Anidav, and move on to the night phase every game.

Current votes on Anidav: 11. only 3 more will be needed.

10 players currently not voting:
Anidav (well duh unless he wants to re-do the suicide theme)
Bifauxnen (I said I'm gonna revote once I get home and have some more run-through time)
black_tangled (hasn't voted for him at all and seems uncommitted to his lynch so far)
Harold Krell (doesn't seem to be showing his face)
Mithranderp (has cast then unvote, says she wants to delay the hammer, but will re-vote when time comes)
rudatron (uncertain, wants to wait and not hammer fast but hasn't committed to Anidav)
Seagull (says he stands by Anidav lynch, but waiting till end of day)
thatbastardken (no idea, hasn't been around yet, might want to participate in talk more in the evening though, which is why turbolynch can be bad)
Tirade (has said he'll vote for Anidav, just later)
Tommofork (unclear. has said "it's clear" Anidav's getting lynched, but not that he'll participate.

So that's 4 votes out there just waiting for later in the day when people have actually got home from work. And there's also 6 more people on top of that who have their votes sitting on others, who could switch.

So I'm not too worried. But if people don't stand by their commitment to getting a lynch and let it peter out, or conversely, if they suddenly rush in to hammer and quelch discussion, that could be useful to look at.

good debate.
This is bait here, you've only been posting about Harold, me and telling people to bold votes. The few times someone votes for you, you don't reply to defend yourself. Only swear and dismiss. As soon as Lid voted for you, you try backing up Beet and try flinging suss back at Lid. You essentially tried to do a OMGUS without voting. The only reason you would get away with tagalonging the one person who is slightly against the person who voted for you is because everyone is focusing on me.

If you want good debate, have it now but you clearly are not.

Nuh uh, dragging out the day 1 lynch is good as it provides more poo poo to work with later. I'm not saying Day 1 is meaningless at all, but I don't think your arguments are strong enough to justify how strongly you're arguing them.

I'll definitely vote anidav by 7pm because that's when I'll eat, but I have no interest in rushing it. I don't think anyone else is going to get lynched today, and a d1 lynch is necessary. What I don't like is people pushing the vote fast and people who admit they voted anidav simply because they don't like his character. I'd rather hear who other people find suspicious and have votes based on that.
