The question is if you think Bifauxnen is lurking due to irl or in game mechanics

maybe she got a lurker pr, that would be funny

maybe she don't like us

I promise not to explode n1 either.

Jokes aside I reread the thread and right now I'm a bit suspicious of the following people (in no particular order)

- Anidav -

Out of all the people having voted for or wanting to lynch Bif, his content just seems... off to me? It seemed to be designed to be somewhere inbetween a joke vote and a serious vote, so they can use the reasoning to slip in/out of a vote.


- GeneX -

Literally has nothing going on except a jokevote for bif that turned into a "serious" vote?


- sniper4625 -

Aggressively lurking, and defensive about it? I really don't like his content, or lack there of.

sniper4625 posted:

Speaking for myself it seemed that most of the posting today was based on preexisting history and/or, which I did not really have anything to contribute to. I'll probably have more to say after D1.

This is stalling, in my opinion. There's already a decent amount of content around, and sniper seems to be willfully ignoring it. There's literally nothing to analyze, not even joke posts, and he's more of a lurker than the one the game is based on.

----

Out of those three, sniper sticks out to me the hardest. I would really like to hear more, or really, anything, from them.

While I go back through the posts I might as well say I too am Town. An immediate target of suspicion imo is the relationship between Bif and Lando - Lando says they're unconfirmed masons, but Bif apparently considers that a lie to the point of immediately flipping their vote to Lando.

The impenetrable barrier of references callbacks and chillpostin makes an effective analysis hard, so I guess I personally would like to hear from Lando re: the above?

Otherwise as a newbie I'll freely admit I lack the discernment to draw any further immediate conclusions, but I'll sure keep reading!

i mean like, its ok, i know that you didn't actually expect to get something good from it, you just wanted to see how the reactions would be to generate the discussion and everything and its in fact me who is acting shameful but shutting down potential discussion but look, its bif ok

the idea of accusing somebody of lurking one irl into a game where all the posting looks like this is pretty laughable anyway

I'll apologize on behalf of him being a newbie. I did not realize he was a newbie. Having only played 4 games myself, I kind of expect people to be more experienced than me by default.

However, I'm not going to apologize for prodding someone with zero content posts. That's an incredibly scummy kind of lurking, imo.

Do you have a posting restriction requiring you to somehow include lynching Bif in every post?

Just curious.

It was a joke so yes it was a factually untrue statement. The joke was based around how Bif has been in many unconfirmed masonries with the admin of this game that ended with town losing a lot.

I would laugh if Bif was actually in a 'masonry' with Nat 20 this game. I'm going to work now bye.

Occam's razor says bif has a post restriction, and I'm all for punishing lurkers, but I'd rather focus on those that are lurking and don't have a pr.

What's there excuse?

Well I know I am not scum, and if you were scum than I find it unlikely you'd be trying to sacrifice me day 1, or would you.

If we don't get anywhere in a bit I'll probably hop on the bandwagon but not quite yet.
