While generally in the absence of a strong read I'd agree with a lurker vig, the day's not been open for that long and it's a weekday, so I think vigging someone now for not participating when they may be at work or whatever, would be kinda uncool.

Vig bowmore for being afraid to die. Also I can't think of a time when a player's had a posting gimmick and been scum, admittedly I can only remember 2 instances, ecco in the wire and keane in the league, so if some players with more experience can weigh in on this that would be good cos if my impression right and it's a largely town gimmick I'd happily suggest vigging the people who want somber dead. I think there's some nice irony in Met being annoyed at people being rude to him after he told them he didn't care about being polite but I don't think it's worth vigging him.

Dr. Hurt posted:Merk in xmen when he was the Beast. He kept posting winney the pooh meets Dr. Hank McCoy fan fiction. Those were in two different games, he lied about being beast in x-men, feigned a beast-related meltdown after he realised he's claimed to be beast and town but also claimed not to have read his PM yet, but he posted the Pooh meets Beast fanfic in fanfic mafia, he was scum in both though.

Lifehack - Next time you see something you don't care about don't make the effort to comment on it as it invites further responses on the topic. I don't like the way Hiipfire is about and posting but exclusively about how he wants other people to stop talking about things he's not interested in rather than bringing up stuff that he thinks is worth discussing/doing anything useful ##vote HiipFire

Asiina posted:I agree with Ernie. Anyone who is super obviously town is an easy coordinated attack for scum. The more doubt scum has that town players are actually town, the more likely scum are to hit their own with the night kill. This works the other way round as well the more doubt town has about who the scum are the more likely we are to lynch town - We could just as easily split uncoordinated votes by the majority of us being "obviously" towny as by all playing borderline scummy and loving up the ability to scumhunt. I think ecco's right on the money, both about this and about ernie's full-claim proposal being terrible. But I also note that Hiipfire did a yuming on me and hasn't come back to give any opinions on anything so more people should start voting him imo.

The problem I have with ernie's logic, ignoring the fullclaim thing/joke, is that even if perhaps it would maximise our chances as town to confuse scum and hope this leads them to make mistakes with the NK it'd make the game a war of attrition that could become a blind crapshoot as far as scumhunting goes and possibly really drawn out and boring.

Ernie. posted:how else is a game where the scum don't know each other going to play out??? Well catching them all d1 would be ideal obviously. But seriously, your criticism applies to your own scheme we're also confused and we're intentionally complicating our lynches, so yes they vote twice but will still presumably be the minority so we can't assume confusing them will result in successful lynches and mistargeted NKs anymore than us divining scum identities through magic is a thing that works. I think your idea is a delaying tactic more than a recipe for success.

Dr. Hurt posted:Ixt thoughts: I'd agree his side chatting is no problem but there is definitely legitimate grounds to criticise his supposed game-related posts, I'll not rehash what's already been said by others but his recent responses have been really unimpressive as well: Ixtlilton posted:To lynch town D1, sure. Ixtlilton posted:Also Meinberg's latest post reads like my writing in highschool: way too many commas. Opop is a good person too, although terrible he is a man who does things and therefore cannot be lynched. I'd vote Punti just based his "I'd vote" post and his reasoning for the other guy.

Ixtlilton posted:I talked about Meinberg's comma useage because it was atrocious, did you read his sentence? It's not even a game thing it's a written English thing. Also, it's not a game unless f_v and I think each other are scum, so it's good to see we have a game going here. And in case you don't know my meta at all, my meta is that I don't vote until really late. And I'm not going to justify disagreeing with your read on a guy with like a paragraph written in this game. Yes. The thing is though of you don't bother explaining the problem you have with my read then how can I or anyone else judge whether the complaint's genuine or not? I didn't like him making GBS threads on activity in the thread without doing anything himself and his last post seemed like a promise of effort in the future as a substitution for doing anything, these are both things I've seen scum do and I think it's fair to call it out and vote someone based on this, if you are gonna say my reasoning is worth voting for me over the onus is on you to argue this isn't true and let the arguments be judged on their merits but you didn't bother so it just looks like a lazy OMGUS sans vote.

Ixtlilton posted:The activity was witchhunting that ended in a D1 dayvig ending as D1 dayvigs tend to. He hasn't posted anything since then though, but same with like half the thread. Including the octopus dude who had a weird jokevote fight with a dude and I thought they were scum together until I realized the scum don't know each other. It was before the vig, discussing how players play, even though it was in the context of this guy is an arse, is potentially as much informative meta as it is "drama" - if you have the time to post "no one cares", you are clearly paying enough attention to think we could be discussing something you think is useful and could say as much rather than just shut up. You realise that I'm the guy who had the jokevote exchange with EXAKT (the octopus dude) right?

I'm not sure what I should be sucking, the fact your own article says champing at the bit is the original expression or the part where it says that using it is the better choice for dealing with readers who are versed in English?

There's something I don't get about opop's case, we are supposed to take the fact that JJ doesn't mention opop as a volunteer he thinks is scummy as suspicious, so in this scenario he votes opop and calls him scum repeatedly yesterday but then decides overnight to drop this position and not comment on it again? Or he simply forgets because he wasn't actually invested in what he was saying? Also saying JJ bent over backwards to blame ernie doesn't really ring true to me either. merk posted:This dude is another scum. Why?

Hey somb, do you still think dugong is scum?Peta posted:Just vote him dude Eh, I'd say he seems more awkward than scummy at the moment. However, bowmore posted:I agree with this bowmore posted:I could go Ixt Also what are the chances in other peoples' opinions of town getting both a day and a night vig in a game this size (with an SK too)? I'm thinking meinberg may be worth scrutinising as well, if he is a bad dude there's the possibility that he's got more than the one-shot he claimed and that could come back to haunt us. I'm off to bed now.

Somberbrero posted:Probably. He contributed to a no-lynch yesterday and is ignoring a lot of the relevant content today to push a non-starter. If I could lynch everyone who didn't bother voting/turning up yesterday I would but it's probably not the best strategy. In his defence though I don't really care to lynch any of the people involved in the major arguments of today either, ecco's too abrasive for his own good but not scummy imo and the cases on JJ and monathin aren't great so I can't blame him for pushing someone else, not least cos I'd be willing to go back to Hiipfire myself if no one has any interest in lynching bowmore. This of course would put hiipfire joint leader at the moment, so he's no more a non-starter than the rest of them. I think one of our major problems is we've had a lot of promises for rereads and cases and very little delivery on that front, the other major problem is players not even bothering to do that.
