sup peeps.
I got off work (relatively) early. Woulda been earlier, if one of my co-workers didn't forget he had a shift, meaning I had to do his part of post-shift wrap-up
my shift also went decently well so i'm a bit pumped, and so i'll be around to chat for an hour or so.

hmm?
I was perusing one of several other browser windows I've left open, sorryz
there' s a lot of cases flying around, yet no one is metioning Serc. is it because people think my observations from yesterday are shit but don't wanna hurt my feelings (in which case: you're playing the game wrong), or is it because people tend to forget he exists?

yes, I know. especially sinc we don't know how many ppl are recruiting, can't really estimate teams (except that the town keeps getting smaller), and we need to look for connections.
really, at this point I'm not sure going after any "type" of player is anything other than a crapshoot. if you think you've got cult, go for cult.
Atrahal, you think D'riss was recruited. You want to keep him around to try to find the "master" having stated this on thread, how likely are we spot anything now?
If we think anyone's cult, recruit or recruited, we should make a case and got for them.
Hey, Tellan, question: why were you after Serc Day 2?

So sorta caught up. Are you building a case Tennes, or just going to quote all my posts and hope that its enough to get people to vote? Strangely seemed to work on Kalse though. I guess he found me scummy before, although he hasn't said if he thinks I'm a recruit, or the Cult Recruiter.
I guess i'll go through my rough schedule as Tennes keeps bringing up timings and my postings.
So game started Tuesday eveningish my time and I first read the thread on my way to work Wednesday morning so about 24 hours to lynch, and I did my initial postings etc.
Came back on Thursday morning once I got to work and there was roughly an hour or so till lynch with Karosis needing a couple votes and about 4 or 5 people around to do so, of which I was one. Someone else hammered and
then I bantered with Tellan I think and Antrahl did my lynch train analysis during the start of Day 2, which was my Thursday at work.
Was hoping to be back but couldn't play Friday, Saturday, Sunday, or Monday till the evening where, unfortunately for me I wasn't modkilled as the weekend break seemed longer than normal.
So posted briefly Monday and then came back Tuesday morning my time where aftering seeing the Liosan lynch train swerve I voted for Liosan..
I think that pretty much covers it.
On a related note, I am curious as to if you truely think this is how the cult recruiter is going to play? Missing large portions of the game, low posting etc? You've only mentioned I'm scummy so I'm not sure if you think i'm the cult recruiter or the I'm a recruit or something else.
If we were playing a game with killers and symps I couldn't really fault your case in that area, my play style certainly fits low posting killer. But this isn a cult game, its completely different. I am starting to wonder if people are still in the mindset of looking for killers and not a cult.
For me at least the Cult Recruiter has to either lead the thread, or be very active, especially in pointing out who he thinks it scummy and who isn't and on who to vote on. As everyone he recruits only knows who the recruiter is, but doesn't know the rest of the cult so he has to give the rest of the cult
directions as best as he can on thread or he runs the risk of the cult building cases on cult or having a cult member lynched because other cult members didn't realise they were also in the cult.
The recruits will be people following along on trains, or building on cases the cult recruiter has mentioned he has found to be scummy previously or voted on before, or people who have made dramatic switches in their opinion. I guess recruits maybe want to low post and cruise as well, so maybe your arguing for me being scummy as I'm a good recruit candidate?

Caught up and I am both rather amused and slightly annoyed.
Korvalain, I don't remember you contributing anything except a tantrum because there were a few votes on you. It's not like we're on different fucking timezones or anything. My best time for posting (since you oh-so carefully looked up my posts, missed that and completely exaggerated 'useful post' count and didn't exactly back up anything, nice ) is now, and there's often not a lot of people around unless there is a lynch due. This happens to me a lot, so it amuses me that you've cried about how you get lynched for the same reason a couple of time, and then proceed to try and attack me based on the reason I tend to get looked askance at. While I'm not going to throw a hissy fit about it, I do find that to be frustrating.
Atrahal, I'm not sure how I'm supposed to argue with "gut feelings". Given your play thus far that's a fairly poor effort. Pretty sure you can do a little better than that
You and D'riss are still squabbling, I see. That's starting to look like a vendetta, quite frankly.
I do note that Silanah has been trying to get a Tellen lynched for what, two days now? And each time there's never been much traction for the train, even though people say Silanah's choices are affecting other people. I find that very odd given that they've been voting on someone who's been behaving suspiciously from day one (possibly fake symping and then lying low from then onwards) and not managed to get enough support for the train.

ok...well caught up.
not to sure of what to make of today so far...lots of accusations flying around.
Allot of OMGUS and what not.
Even though OMGUS cases could be just as valid as scum are searching for each other in this game alongside the town.
I think the argument about D'riss coming out of the woodwork and attacking korvalain to perhaps protect someone is valid.
But the fact that people seem to think that just because someone is protecting someone else he automatically has to be a symp/recruit is false.
In this game the recruiter would also want to protect a player on thread.
It makes allot of sense to do so.
A recruiter protecting his recruit gives his other recruits info on who also is on their side and who to protect.
A recruiter also has less to fear if we lynch the person he defended if we dont know from CF if someone is recruited or not (have we had confirmation yet?) so an inno CF will have zero blowback on the defender.
Its actually worse for a recruit to defend a recruiter! the recruiter getting lynched would get the recruit lynched soon after the CF.
So not voting for D'riss because he is "simply a recruit" is not only silly because your logic could be wrong and he could very well be a recruiter.
Its also silly because unless that recruit is on your side why wouldnt you want to get rid of him anyways?
Unless you are a recruit yourself and you are not sure if he is on your team yet?
Vote D'riss

Mockra I didn't finish what I was going to say, i've been away since I started that. My point was going to be that you are a great candidate for cult leader or recruitment. If you are recruited i'd be wary of Atrahal because since I started the case on you which i'll hopefully finish later he has come on and spammed the thread with Rashan. Right now I am thinking that you, Atrahal and Rashan are all in the same cult. I would be happy if either of these are lynched. Rashan has looked scummy all game and is always around with her defence, same as Atrahal, they seem to influence the thread the most and I don't believe Mockra. Where has Serc gone as well?

Ugh, far too many uses of the word 'recruit' in there. But I take your point. Actually, you and Mockra above make very similar points about the recruiter being out there and the recruits lying low.

I spammed the thread? I spammed the thread! Please, Tennes, look above, and tell me who was spamming? I doubt that 'Atrahal' will be the first name to come to you, unless you're the one with the 'vendetta' of course. Is it maybe because I brought your name up among the candidates for D'riss' buddy? Yes, yes, I think it is.
So what was I supposed to do? Wait until you eventually came back to finish your Mockra case, which 1) You never announced wasn't finished, and 2) You appear to have added precisely one sentence to? And please, do take a look back again, I said more than once that my preferred lynch candidates for today would have been Omtose and, that's right, Mockra.
No, I think this is all because I mentioned your name with D'riss. Please show me all this spam I've posted since your case then.

I also raised an eyebrow at Korvalain's sudden upage in content posts. It was only yesterday that I said that I'd forgotten there was even a Korvalain in this game.
However, the fact that Korv has raised up a few people means there's no specific agenda that can be linked as yet to his sudden exit from passivity.
On the other hand:
I'm now convinced that D'riss has been recruited.
Something in all that Korv posted recently has really not sat well at all with D'riss. Ergo, (at least) one of Tennes, Gamelon and Ruse is a cult leader.

Oh man, I hate to be the one to break this to you, but, well, there's no easy way to say this:
I'm Atrahal, he's Korvalain...and you're D'riss.
I know, I know, it's shocking, I'm sorry. I really am sorry.
But you have to face these things. You're the one who got riled up at the links that were posted. But go ahead and look at them closely, and let us know which one's your recruiter

Since you asked.
Posting overload?
There's an easy way to resolve this though PS, in 4 easy steps:
Step 1: Give the two highest posters vig kills.
Step 2: The two highest posters kill each other.
Step 3: ?????
Step 4: Profit!
....Wait, something's wrong there....
Have thoughts occur to you after you've posted. Then, instead of editing your last post, just add it on in a new post
And do you want to know how many people are playing...or how many people are posting?
Invested to post, yes, but not to the extent where they're almost constantly visible, like those you've named. As I said before, I think it's in the group just below that.
I don't find D'riss to be scummy. I haven't looked into him properly because he hasn't pinged my radar.
On a side note, I did message PS yesterday saying that my gut tells me the cultist is Gamelon, he is too agreeable with everyone. Yet \that is gut and i'd rather go for a case than a feeling.

That means Me or You, Atrahal, and to a lesser extent Barghast and D'riss.
