On the Tennes thing. I mentioned it yesterday as an odd thing to do. One post = vote and then disappear. Like I said I sort of assumed it was a joke vote, but if it was why would you leave it in place and then disappear for a long time? Seems careless. Not sure it means anything, I simply didn't like it.
I have gone through the posts so many times now and nothing seems to make much sense. The only thoughts I have are; Sil's comments (posts 716 & 737) about Tellan, could (at one hell of a push, but then I've seen far less stretched much further) be construed as symping, but is probably far too obvious for that.
Kesso could be being set up or could be setting himself up, but then we get back to WIFOM, and I think it's a risky strategy and it would take a killer with real guts. But that doesn't mean I think he is in any way PI.
Mockra has five posts with little or no content, but I know that RL can be a bugger, and scum would probably try to post a bit more…wouldn't they?
So to sum up in technical terms - I haven't got a flaming clue.
Edit: Cross post with quite a lot.

However, in response to my own above post, why would he (Kesso) not speak up and say, "Hey guys, I think D'riss is inno, only an inno would come up with a code like this and not fake reveal an important role." That's the big question I have on him.
So what you're saying is either he's a killer or he's a symp (and you're implying there are two symps and D'riss was one).
I think you're forgetting that by the time D'riss actually got lynched, nobody really cared about him any more. He'd been fucking around and messing with our heads. Probably an inno move with hindsight, but I for one wasn't even contemplating that aspect at the time.
No, I'm not saying that at all.
I'm saying that (in the previous post) that I believe that Kesso is innocent because that is the most likely scenario given that he was almost certainly bound to gain suspicion by jumping OFF the train and then NOT getting back ON it.
The quoted post here is that, while Kesso seems to have been innocent, why not either try to save D'riss OR just back on the train quietly. Doing either would make him seem more likely to be inno.
Instead, by not doing either, he appears more likely to be hiding something than he appears to be scum.
After thinking it over, my guess is he's a town power role and wants someone to find him tonight to prove innocence.

Yeah, not sure where you get RPing noob. I see spammer to busy spamming and lazy to read the thread. I went back myself and checked Sil's posts a while ago. I thought I had him, when he went after Game early day one. And then went with the Driss lynch. But No, after that (before day 2 started) he went back on the Gamelon Offensive. Not saying he isn't scum, just saying if he is, in that spam mess hes posted, I cant find any signs.

Also Galain, I was looking through your posts and I think you've got tunnel-vision on Sil, now consistancy is a good thing but I'm worried it is too early in the game to focus on one player, in the last 36 hours I've noticed that about 1/4 of the posts deal with Sil, while the rest are speaking to others or one liners that are fun.
Keep your eyes on him/her but look around a little more, if Sil is scum s/he isn't alone.

Just as good for the scum as it is for healers and finders.
And, for that matter, just as good for Kesso himself to potentially PI himself if he's scum.

I'm not even sure what you're trying to say here - the Finders and Healers can take care of their own business without having suggestions tossed at them in the open.
Never, EVER point out that someone might be Roled Inno. The only reason to do that is to target them for Killers.
And not only did you speculate that Kesso might be Roled, you said it would be good if any Finders cleared him ... which they would only be able to do by making it obvious who and what they were, in-thread. That's two pretty big fucking marks against you.

Considering all the games we've had where finders and healers CAN'T take care of their own shit (see the LAST game for proof), I completely disagree that pointing out who we MAY want to protect is a bad call.

Aye, Serc, I'm not sure what you're actually getting at there but it's never good to out possible CIs. Care to elaborate?

It's definitely a bad call so early in the game. Let the healers deal with their own shit.

Don't be thick. If you suspect someone is a power role, you never, ever , ever call them out. Ever. It's rule one of being inno, and for all we know, you are a trying to give your partner a night free of a vig. If I could have it my way, you'd be speed lynched now just to remove that possibility.

As to pointing out innos. Meh, Gamelon tried to do the same thing in a way by pointing out he was town roled, and see who didn't say they had town in their pm. Such is life, give the killers no nfo if you can help it, and if ou are roleless, keep your damed eyes on lynching scum and less on helping the roled players do their job. If innos lose because the roled players suck, oh well, you wont take the blame if you are roleless.
