The crews bickers throughout the day, but cannot decide who is responsible for the captain's death and head off to sleep. Perhaps tomorrow will bring greater clarity.

Night actions are due within 48 hours. Would you guys prefer Thursday deadlines? pm me if you'd prefer that or Fridays.

The ship awakens at the crack of dawn and assembles on deck. When the headcount is taken the crew finds that one among their number is missing, Tremendous Taste. Checking his bunk they find him awash in a pool of his own blood, dead. Clearly the deaths would not stop here, they had to find who did this.

Tremendous Taste, Vanilla Town, has died Night 1

The game is now open, deadline is Thursday at Midnight. Also, if you had fewer posts than 15 yesterday, please post more today.

I request a final votecount for D1 and a link to Votefinder in the OP, please.

I continue to prefer lynching Grandicap, DHD, Puntification.

I mention that nightkilling Tremendous Taste, a useless lurker, seems very Grandicappian. I applaud the choice.

I wish to bring attention to the fact that Hal Incandenza has only 10 posts, which is less than Tremendous Taste.

Hal said to me, D1:

Hal Incandenza posted:

I don't see the case on Punt, I tend to agree with mills.

I think you are reaching on DHD, notorious sniper.

Grandi is the most compelling of the three, weird interaction with wall monitor, calls Punt scum with no reasoning, and totally inane point about Lumpen. Fells self-consciously jokey so far.

I am curious if you still think f-V is scum now, since she is not on your list.

Most detailed reads forthcoming.
No more detailed reads came forth. Hal did not vote at all D1 despite openly accusing Grandicap. Based on the above post I can see a possibility Hal as Scum rather than Grandicap.

Of those 4 suspects, given that Punt didn't get lynched due to Mills preferring DHD, I suggest lynching DHD.

Looking at what Punt produced, I am additionally convinced that Punt argues in bad faith.

fiery_valkyrie posted:

Can you elaborate how you think Punt argues in bad faith? I agree with his case.

Lumpen posted:

A Scum argues in bad faith by nature. If you agree with the case then I can only urge you to read more closely and critically. If I am mislynched, it will be you who failed to act correctly on the evidence.

Some of my early posting served as trollin', and that should be obvious by reading it in context (as I suggested comparing my post to wall monitor's above it), but as bait for the sort of thing an opportunistic Scum would try to fake-case. Punt fell for it, and forced out a bad faith excuse for a case. Can you see that?

I like that you did a stream of consciousness catch-up post series, but I feel sad that reading everything in one go maybe you lost some of the pacing and context. Despite your suspicion, I don't read you as Scummy, and I hope you reconsider.

How does punt argue in bad faith? A scum argues in bad faith by nature. Punt is scum is not the proposition or conclusion of his arguments they are axiomatic to them, he is working backwards from his position that I am scum to make his arguments, I do like the irony that his arguments are about people arguing in bad faith because one of us definitely is.

Lumpen posted:

I will vote for any of my three top suspects.

Puntification and Grandicap declared suspicion on each other but neither made good on it. Note it.

You should probably also note that not only have neither of me or grandi flipped but Lumpen and I were tied for vote leader when I went to bed before the deadline with grandicap on 1 vote.

Reviewing your posting, you cased DHD and voted Puntification, and said you agreed with 2/3rds of my suspects.
Did you lurk through deadline in order to not hammer Puntification, after suddenly contradicting your own previous vote? That seems like the worst thing on you so far.

I voted him last night and I don't regret it but I've begun to cool on Punt partly because of this post:

I don't know how much I believe you in regards to setting out a honey pot on purpose. Either way Punt had several cases, one against me, which I found incorrect, and one against you that pointed out more how dickish you played more than anything else. Yet, his posting reminds me of my own at times. Spectacularly wrong but town. Mills brought up a good point that I missed. There was genuine emotion there and while wrong, they didn't fake it. I will take a closer look at Mills because he did a similar thing to Ernie, whose honesty sets him apart.

I also don't think that Lumpen or Punt should act so hard-headed especially now that Day 2 has begun.

A bit yeah. I don't think anyone took that post seriously but why would Taste make a better lurker lynch over another? If anything the scum could've done the mod a favor and hit the person bound to get replaced. It's a good lynch since we don't get new information and they remove the very slight chance of Taste's vig in case they hadn't joked.

Why does it particularly matter if a lurker died in the night? This is all ultimately NK speculation and meaningless. You could derive a half dozen thoughts from TT dying, especially if you use Grandi's self professed meta crap but it is still outright speculation.

It reminds me of me. I think Punt's said several incorrect things. Lumpen even says he served himself up to be a trap case. I've fallen for such things in the best and I've also cased people quite adamantly but very incorrectly. Wrong does not equal scum necessarily.

Also re-reading Punt following Mills post (reading them in isolation) shows a lot more genuine frustration than anything else. I should've probably put that first but with both these things taken into consideration, my opinion on Punt has changed.

It doesn't matter, I just wanted to remark on what Lumpen had posted. Following my logic (threatened vig led to his death) we get even less information from his death. I don't want to case anyone using Taste's death, that's Lumpen who mentioned Grandicap and last night's execution in the same breath.
