Imagine I said something deep here...
Effective immediately, Operative Mills has been tasked with investigating and resolving the explosion which took the life of Diplomatic Attaché capps. He is given authority to act as he sees fit pursuant to his investigation.

~

Mills has been given a gun! Again, the rules for the gun are:
  • The gun is a one-shot gun that only works on D1.
  • To use the gun, the action ##shoot <playername> should be used in the thread.
  • If the gun is not used by the time the day ends (hammer or deadline), the gun is lost.
  • The gun being used does not end the day, and everyone except for the person being shot can continue discussion as normal.

Final Tally:

Mills (4) - AnonNarc, Grandicap, merk, Diqnol
Murmur Twin (3) - Dr. Hurt, Ernie, PMom
PMom (1) - Little Mac
Diqnol - Poque

Probably Hal. It's the thematically correct choice.

Hey Mills, it's Ernie.

He's making conclusions on alignment based on disagreements over general mafia arguments rather than other player conclusions about alignment. That is, he's hiding his scum and town reads in general mafia argument instead of actual alignment discussion.

Confirmed Town based on an agreement over a general mafia discussion:

Murmur Twin posted:

Don't you think that using the gun in a majority-rules fashion (requiring people to actively state who they want to shoot) is better than giving it to one person who either (a) doesn't know who scum is or (b) is scum themselves?

Ernie. posted:

MMT is confirmed town, because this is exactly how I feel as well.

Scum based on a disagreement over a general mafia discussion:

merk posted:

I will build as large and in depth as possible of a case on someone and fire the shot in the same post. I also will do this probably 1-2 hours after receiving the gun, depending on my evening availability.

Ernie posted:

I'm uncomfortable with merk's suggestion here. He makes a provision to use his gun in the scummiest way possible, i.e. allowing himself to manufacture an opinion and kill its target in one post.

Mills: To put it shortly, theorycrafting about how we use the gun before it is given out is an argument that is ripe for the Discussion Thread. Ernie is faking alignment reads based on a Discussion Thread argument. If that is how we play mafia, I would have voted you out of the Discussion Thread months ago.

Murmur Twin posted:

##vote Merk

I don't like that Merk hunting for scum strictly depends on whether he gets the gun or not. If he has big cases he should be putting them out there regardless.

This vote also bothered me a lot when MMT made it, but I've cooled off after reviewing the thread again in context looking for more Ernie stuff. I'm not sure why I've cooled off besides to say that it feels less scummy from a gut perspective, but there you go.

Thanks for sharing that. I will give it consideration on my proper read tonight.

And again merk point blank ignores what I'm saying phrasing it as a general mafia discussion.

I am saying merk, the person, the player, the champion, personally is scummy because given how difficult it is to cuddle him he wouldn't be at all fearful of talking yourself out of the repercussions of a misvig.

No, I feel like you were definitely doing the first thing. I don't understand what you mean. It feels like you're saying it's impossible for merk to make an honest case.

Aug 31, 2012

Does anyone understand my point or should I drop it?

For someone who is confident in their unlunchability like merk is to say that they will both case and vig someone in the same post its scummy because it allows them to downplay the shock of their actions before they even get their gun. The only reason merk would make that his platform is if he knew what he was going to do might be controversial. Like if I were to ask for the gun the last thing on my mind would be to make sure that the town understands that it might be rushed from casing to vigging in a single post.

You know I was voting you in my heart.

I had a really bad day of travel/work and I checked back into the thread like 5 minutes after voting deadline. Oops!

I suppose shooting me would be the height of comedy though. At least wait until 24 hours from now because by then I will be back in a hotel with plenty of time to post so I'd like to get to actually say something of value in this game!

Also, I totally understand what you are saying Ernie.
