So, let's see who really wants a knife, shall we?

It's pretty simple.

You either hammer before I do, or you drop a vote on someone who isn't me, I knife them, and we continue.

Why hang onto a vigilante kill when you can use it in the first five minutes of Day 1?

Why use it in the first five minutes of Day 1 when you can amuse yourself infinitely more by holding onto it until the last minute to use as a lynch reset?

Day 7 Final Votecount:

MEDS CURE SCHIZOS (7): The Ninth Layer, Tremendous Taste, CCKeane, Look Under The Rock, GulagDolls, Gridlocked, MEDS CURE SCHIZOS


For the first time, the crew had come to a unanimous consensus. MCS had to be a mutineer, he hadn't done much to help and had mostly just complained. Everyone agreed - MCS had to go. By the end of it, even MCS agreed with them, walking himself off the plank straight into the waiting arms of the circling sharks. A mutineer wouldn't have done himself in like that, would he? It turns out, he wouldn't. MCS wasn't a murderer and the crew had chosen another one of their own.

MEDS CURE SCHIZOS, town sailor, was lynched Day 7.

11 players are alive. The Deadline for Day 8 is tomorrow at 11 PM EST

QPQ's play is bugging me in a way that's it's difficult to verbalize but I'm gonna try.

QuoProQuid posted:

I'm of the unpopular opinion that scum, regardless of set-up, want to avoid drawing attention to themselves and their brethren at all costs because it makes the game much more difficult to win. I don't see any reason to believe that Ecco was trying any gambit here.

QuoProQuid posted:

The case against me is that I provided a series of observations about Ecco's lynch that appeared both shallow and obvious. The implication from merk (1) was that I was trying to exploit this death by making content that only seemed meaningful. Scum obviously aren't committed to scumhunting so shallow casing is a good tool to seem townie without providing anything that actually helps the town.

As for myself, I don't have much of a defense except that I was frustrated with the joke phase seemingly stretching out infinitely and wanted to post anything that would get the game moving.

QuoProQuid posted:

Also:


I'm completely fine lynching Scruffy.

Everyone QPQ posts about gets way more words than this. This is his third post referencing Scruffles and it's always basically just "I'd vote the guy" with no explanation given. He keeps mentioning he doesn't like Scruffy, he hasn't felt good about Scruffy all game.

The thing I think that bothered me most is that he's got his Case Voice with a bunch of words and a bunch of footnotes, and talks about how he gets a lot of poo poo for his tone being unnatural, but then that gets dropped.

QuoProQuid posted:

keane, tell me who you think we should vote for and why

i think lutr, scruffy, and maaaaaaaaaybbbbeeeeeee shanananananananananananananannananananananananananananananannanananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananakin.

Like this is way more conversational.

He's also called people out a couple times for posting weak observations as casing, but he's doing his casework in a vacuum from post histories. It's way easier to do it that way, sure, but context is so important and the links in his footnotes lead directly to someone's drat post history so you don't get the thread events/climate from that. Ninth made a better post about how QPQ's "casework" seems more obfuscating than actually helpful. That post is [url=http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3722665&pagenumber=21&perpage=40#post446221271]here[/b] if you're interested.

He does weird swings back and forth on whether or not he finds me suspicious, saying Ecco's flip makes me look really good, then changing his mind eventually and saying he didn't like my actions around the 100yrs dunk.

QPQ also did not post at all yesterday.

The whole point of stats are lost if you keep it a secret. Why Didn't you tell the world eh?
I'm going to be without power for most of tomorrow as they're turning it off for 4 to 6 hours to install some transformers and new power poles just up the street. It starts about 2 hours before the deadline I believe. I'll try and be on beforehand or maybe phonepost depending on how well that's working at the time but regrettably can't promise much.

In the meantime I'm going to take a look through the thread for a a few minutes and decide on what I want to do with the current information in case I miss out.

Okay I'm tired as hell from looking at raw data tables for the last few hours and it being 3am. I've had and expressed some concerned about QPQ before and have found agreement in previous criticisms against his posts. I have my reservations though. In many ways it sometimes looks like he's a big part of driving the game forward, and he does have some good stuff throughout. On the other hand we've had not a single successful lynching. On yet another hand with the number of players involved that's no super unexpected.


I hate to say it but I think I'm gonna hold my vote for now. I'll just have to hope my reception stays decent and phone vote. There's a good chance if he's going to get lynched I wont be necessary, and if not it's probably all spread back out to other votes. I'm also a little worried of scum potentially jumping in and rushing out a hammer, on a big town asset if he's actually clear. Not too hard to get with a couple of guys.

Worst case scenario I might SMS Grid and ask him to post my vote for me? Dunno if that would even work or not.

Goodnight folks.

I get the feeling it's Gridlocked and Pmom. His defense of her whenever I mentioned her reads a lot like defenses scum buddies use on the one with a strong town claim/town cred. See my defense of Chicken of Tomorrow in Ecco's Aliens game where she was a watcher and merk's defense of fiery_valkyrie in some game I don't remember where she dayvig'd a scum. Also cum man. Hehe.

This would not surprise me a whole lot, Grid's not played the best in this game and cha-ching it's now midgame and therefore I'm fine to vote him. I'm chomping a sandwich before math class but I would be interested to see if the same Grid behavior pinged you as it did me.

PinMom's been so lurky/snipey that it wouldn't surprise me to learn that he vigged a scumbuddy D1 to fly under the radar until endgame.

Hey Pmom -- I'm wondering how you've been feeling about Keane lately.

I believe no one would be stupid enough to D1 vig-bus a scumbuddy just to look good for a while. It's a pretty insane tactic. Therefore Pintrest must have stabbed in the dark and got lucky.
