What? That's random.

I'll have to look at the last day again as I was busy marathoning Deadhouse Landing.


That's mod kill avoidance.

Curious to see who else Ano didn't like.


Which is a pretty fucking horrible way to scum hunt, since all they have to do is NK people who expressed suspicion, so as to frame anyone the dead player was wondering about.

It is, but I've been sick all week. I should have asked for a sub.


Really, do you succumb so easily?

So when someone dies all that they said becomes irrelevant because... they might have had a negative opinion on someone who was not scum? Looking at what dead people thought makes perfect sense as long as it's not the only factor to consider. If it was, then yes, it'd be pure wifom but that's not how it works, both us and scum know that what dead people said about someone might have had something to do with why they're dead,or it might not. It's on us determine when something is significant and when not, just like with every other scum tells.

Slept in, woke up 830 to AM.

Was scheduled for a PD webcast @ 9 AM, which is (for once) directly related to what I do.

Had to watch it from home.
On my way to wor now w, so I'll check in in an hour or so

I'm finally back and able to play today. I despaired a little after it turned out we had run out of time so took a step back from the game yesterday evening.

I see there's already a direction we're pulling in, which is not a surprise as it was how it was going yesterday. I'm going to continue reading up on a couple of people I didn't get to yesterday (Okaros, Skintick are the first to pop into my head).

As for the deadie discussion, I do think it's worth looking at if Ano focused on anyone in particular, and to add that to the list of things to bear in mind.

I'll be more active today. Looks like I'm getting some attention. I despaired a little after it turned out we had run out of time so took a step back from the game yesterday evening. I'm finally back and able to play today. I feel like yesterday was all muddy water and Kalse was stirring up the most. Something I find scummy about Kalse is that they express their opinions but they don't give others much chance to interact with them because the stuff that they comment on have been already discussed from the most part. Still no vote though as far as I saw despite the good amount of digging around they've done. Ultimately, however, I don't see much wrong in their day 2 play, I like that they've taken a look at several people, even if I disagree with some of the conclusions drawn.

Having said that, I'd like to know where Kalse stands now, as it's difficult to tell where their suspicions actually lie after that. Some things were picked up and then entirely dropped. Even if I was here, it doesn't look like there would have been much of a different outcome. Because I knew my vote would be close to hammer if not the hammer itself, and I would be around for the next few hours, so I allowed the time for potential last-minute hijinks. There weren't, so I laid down my vote just before going to bed. I feel so important. Seems absurdly sensible to me.

I'm going to continue reading up on a couple of people I didn't get to yesterday. My suspicions were for a couple of people who seemed to have taken the early part of Day One to run up their post count quick and early, so they'd stay high in the rankings in later days, even if their participation dropped. I am going to go out on a limb here and say that Osseric is a very good candidate for scum. It's a pure gut case, but his play reads like an attempt to appear innocuous town and yet still get a vote in to ensure the lynch. It's a bit early to call this, but his future play may be interesting. More involved in the game on day 1 than today. There's nothing there that jumps out or sticks, but that in itself could be a sign of course. As with Kalse previously, I have no idea which way their suspicions currently blow according to their posts.

I think that if scum was on the train, we will find them among the silent ones - Tennes and Ay Estos. Also I will be keeping a very close eye on Osseric. Actually it did not read like Tennes voted just to get a lynch, he was in the exact middle of the lynch train, with quite some time to go. What read do you have on him except that he voted and did nothing else? To me Tennes and Estos look like stealthy scum trying to nudge a lynch train along. Otherwise, it is nearly impossible to get a read on Tennes. Few comments and a vote? Reads like lazy town to me, but I could be wrong.

Ruse is a non-character at this point. I'd comment more on them as the game progresses, if they kept on doing that then they'd be a hella lot more suspect.. I didn't vote because I didn't like the case, but I also didn't vote for a non-poster to try to pretend to be useful. It was strange and I called it out at the time. I do think it's worth looking at if Ano focused on anyone in particular, and to add that to the list of things to bear in mind. Looking at what dead people thought makes perfect sense as long as it's not the only factor to consider.

But truth is I didn't have much time today and haven't the time tonight to add any meaning full content. Tomorrow looks much better time wise for me.

Remove Vote

Vote Ruse

It's day 1 - risk is low, weak signal case is weak. Barely half of the players have been participating, the other half has been quiet. Since being targeted, Fandy's play doesn't strike me as scummy. I'll switch to get a lynch if we need to, but I am less convinced than I was, for various reasons

As RI, I can't think of a better play than lynching Ruse, assuming he doesn't show


Is it me or is the dumbest thing ever. Okay maybe not dumbest, but up there non the less.


What part of Ara's post is the dumbest thing ever and why?


It feels like a desperate deflection from the train running on you. Especially since Aranatha tries to make a point of saying they're RI, which seriously no one does on Day One.

Vote Fanderay


I thought it was you and Skintick, but it's really feeling like you and Aranatha.


Why did you think Skintick was scum?

I just reread the thread. It's only day 2 but I think we have a coaster.

Hanas has made no waves, attracted no attention, never voted, never been voted for. He has narrated the entire thread in bits and pieces instead of contributing. No real content or opinion. Just enough questions, just enough agreement. He's even lower on the radar than the low posters. Smooth as it gets.

remove vote

Vote hanas


If I make it back before timeout it will be close. Jalan case has no traction and he was nice enough to reply so I'm not losing sleep on it. My gut says this feels right though

I would vote Okaros for same reasons but feel like hanas is more active and leading the thread

I can't believe the Ruse thing is still being discussed and TBH I don't understand your vote or reasoning.

How the hell can someone be coasting and leading the thread at the same time?

So had a look at Osseric (didn't take long), and the only thing which *might* stand out to me is the post below. They say they have a different suspicion of Fanderay, but never elaborate on what it could be. Were they saving this in case the train on Fandy stalled? The scum as the 3rd or 4th voter bit as well...yeah, that's just lazy generalisation at that point.



My suspicions were for a couple of people - Fanderay and Skintick - who seemed to have taken the early part of Day One to run up their post count quick and early, so they'd stay high in the rankings in later days, even if their participation dropped.

And yes, it was a lazy generalization, but that's the best I could come up with on Day One. And I don't think it's inaccurate, as I don't think scum would be too hot to start bad-case trains this early in the game. They don't need to, because there's all sorts of stupid flying around they can wait and then jump in with, once it gets momentum.

Oh, ok, I see what your scum reasoning was now

Jalan could be getting set up.

It could a coincidence (though I find that unlikely, since the sentence feels grammatically off). If it is a coincidence then I don't want anyone bringing me yawning ever again this game.

I mean, I feel we have to test this

vote Jalan

Let's hope the vig will test Ara.
