I don't know what to do,
I'm going to lose my mind

I am flipping exhausted so I apologise that the flavour sucks!

Once again the inmates were forced to find the two Network operatives in their ranks. Learning from their mistake of the previous day, they were wary assuming the worst of the quieter characters. Surely this person had to be guilty... she was resisting the chair with every fibre of her body. But wouldn't an innocent person do that too? Requiring the effort of five other people, she was eventually strapped in. Before the switch was flipped she screamed:

"IM JESSI--!!"

Not Voting (7): fiery_valkyrie, Gabriel Pope, Gamerofthegame, Lumpen, Rarity, Somberbrero, wall monitor

With 7 alive, it's 4 votes to lynch. The current deadline is February 13th, 2015 at 10 a.m. GMT -- that's in about 2 days, 12 hours.

This must be a frustrating game for scum.

It was incredibly anti-town for Rarity to throw down a useless vote and then leave us in a no-lynch situation. Gabe at least helped lynch scum. ##vote Rarity

Well worst case scenario is that he/she has got one scum result that we've already lynched (exakt) and one town

Medium case is two results on town

Best case is that they've got a scum result

Is it worth claiming just to announce one confirmed town, with 1/6 left?

If they just have one town result then I guess it isn't worth claiming unless we're about to accidentally lynch that player. I'm too lazy to work it out but I think that would make the game very difficult to lose.

Going by intuition, Gabriel. But since my intuition is 0 for 1 so far, I'm more inclined to pick Rarity based on D2 actions.

If there's a cop and a blocker, then there has to be a cop, and at that point it's incredibly counterintuitive to sacrifice one member of the scumteam to make the other look good. If I was in the shoes of Exakt's partner, watching a charge build up on Exakt, I'd probably try for the long shot in getting town to not lynch Exakt by not voting or voting for someone else. The alternative, voting against my partner to try to look town, doesn't have enough of a benefit that results from a 5/1 which turned out to be a 6/1 with both a cop and doctor present. That's a losing situation for scumteam no matter how much the surviving scum comes out of it smelling like roses.

Though... that kind of also fingers me, I guess :v:

Looks like there isn't going to be much conversation until I claim. I'm the cop.

N1 I investigated Somber. He is town.
N2 I investigated Rarity. She is also town (I even double checked it with Dugong).

So it's out of WM, Gabe and Gamer.

i did hammer exact tho so there's that??

WM is new and variable, though I thought Lumpen and Gabe were a scum team in the first place.

This rules out Lumpen lying, SIGH, and it just being a roleblock + town. Scummy bastard.

I'll look at posts later between the two.

Alright. So I am a pseudo-lurker this game after D1 or so, Gabe is always pretty active and lynch happy which while I could see being suspicious and a pretty easy scumtell, at the same time he responds to arguments against his own and doesn't seem like he is hellbent on lynching early, just getting the discussion rolling on a slow game.

WM, on the other hand, is largely being quiet and agreeing with other people, joining the crowd while occasionally making off the wall theories to try and add a bit of confusion. He's fairly new, however, so this could just be figuring things out... but of the two? That's a lot scummier then gabe.

I'm torn. Really thought it was Rarity amd felt wall monitor was incredibly unhelpful Town. Gamerofthegame is way more Scummy but the hammer on the Rokeblocker when he could have gotten away with lirking and caused a no lynch and guaranttrd a succesful nightkill counts a lot. It would be a very very bad play if he is Scum.

I think it's either WM or Gabe. WM obviously didn't vote Exact yesterday so that makes his suspicious. Gabe's posts I read yesterday as trying to make sure the lynched steered onto Exact, but now I'm wondering if he was actually making all that noise to try and generate any interest in lynching anyone other than Exact.

I'll re-read when I'm not at work.

You got pretty unlucky this game, being both scum as a newbie and having being able to narrow it down this far this early. Take this one in stride, scumfriend. :)

Thinking all the way back to my first impression with the jokephase RNG post, it could be Gabriel. I will do a full reread when I get home and not phoneposting.

Yeah, no, I'm town. I'm on the team that's winning right now, and I'm pretty sure we've got a path to certain victory at this point unless we catastrophically mess things up somehow.

IDK, I don't think anyone's seriously read me as scum so far, aside from my unfortunate voting record. Rarity said my opinions sounded 'Manufactured' which strikes me as a weak and vague argument, but I can't recall too many other direct accusations.

Anyone considering me, I'll answer any questions you want to throw at me about past days, posts I've made, whatever. I think we've pretty much won this so mostly I'm more interested in wanting to know what people pinged me as scum on and trying to get feedback to improve upon.

Reread Gabriel and I really don't think its him.

All things considered, even despite the hammer, I feel more strongly that gamerofthegame is Scum than wall monitor.

Rarity would fit the profile pretty much perfectly if not for that Cop clear.

##Vote gamerofthegame
I have to justify the hammer as fatalistic inevitability I guess. It is the ONLY exculpatory thing in his entire post history. Wall monitor and Gabe both have several psychologically Towny posts.

I still think it's between WM and Gabe, but I can't for the life of me decide which one is scummier.

WM had a progression of posts on D1 that I didn't like and pointed out. He didn't vote Exact and he has commented a lot on game setup with regards to is there a doc/cop. He and Exact also almost never talk to or about each other.

Gabe talks about Exact a lot, but I'm conflicted on what I think his actual intentions were with those posts. The big thing for me is how much Exact was pushing Gabe at the end of D2. He could have been bussing knowing his lynch was almost assured and hoping to throw some heat off his partner.

I know we can't lose at this point so it doesn't matter if we get this one wrong, but there are still ego's on the line right?

Gamer's posting at the end of both days smells funny but I'm starting to suspect he just enjoys putting on a show.

I never did like EXAKT's constant pokes at WM. That could have been trying to drum up interest for lynching a townie, but there's never been a lot of interest in lynching WM. I could see it being a safe attempt to establish some distance.
