No one was focused on it or using it as a discussion until you did. dedoporno made a comment of not liking someone and you ran with it and have not stopped since. My point is that it's only causing WIFOM and not helping us to actually find the scum. It's funny you are now trying to say focusing on it is scummy yet you were the one to start the focus on it.

argh, misquotes, damnit, that almost never happens to me...grrrr

So dedoporno brought it up for fun then? It should have been completely ignored/disregarded and considered meaningless? I didn't "run with it", I stated why I had an issue with it, clearly and briefly, then that got picked on and so I had to respond. That's not me running with it, that's others using my issue with the issue to focus the issue on me rather than the issue I had. You find it funny? I'm trying to work out issues here to help in a murderous situation, and you find it funny...I don't understand how you can't understand my issue. YOU are usually the one with the issue of discussing PM info, yet, you readily shared yours after dedo did. Scum-tactics, methinks is possible, between the two of you.

Does anyone want to consider the possibility that this is an all-town game?

My issue is talking about PM info that is about anyone's role or using PM's to break the game, I have no issue talking about flavor. And as I've said all I think this "I don't like so and so" is flavor.

How could this be an all town game? It's clearly stated in the OP that there are two competing schools and our duty is to find the ones from LAMIST who killed JMich.

...

And what is the point of talking about flavor/mentioning flavor/bringing up flavor at all? Why did you do it? Why do you think dedo did it?

You keep adding flavor to your posts, saying how some don't have the intellect to be a professor here or that it's a good thing we didn't call the police because we need to figure this out ourselves. What's the point of saying any of that since it's all flavor?

I have no idea why dedo did it, ask him. All I'm saying is it doesn't matter. This is suppose to be a game of enjoyment, and the flavor helps to give it enjoyment. I find the whole concept amusing and feel it adds to the game, but making a stink out of it like you did gets us nowhere.

You quote my post, yet address HSL. So... Is it me or HSL that moved up your scum list?

You sure do O_P

Not lying. I couldn't really make it up so nicely. But I did present a possibility that scum may lie about their names.

Seems like Leonard came out. What do you make of that?

You do understand that your talking, whether you are town or scum, is just way too easy to be misinterpreted, twisted and painted in bad light by other townies (since we are paranoid people, who don't know who is scum) and by scum (just because you present so much material in which it is easy to make unintentional mistakes)? Just don't get angry over that. If you are town, keep hunting scum.

This sentence is way too long. But the idea is absolutely correct. Which in turn... Means we should not rely on those dislikes when voting. For we all may be given different person to dislike.

Sounds cocky. And it is not a first time from you. Makes you less likable and thus, your opinion less valued. Lets keep such ideas to ourselves and treat everyone with a degree of respect. When we find lady killers, we may... Oooooh, they should wish they never stepped in this Institute.

Sorry, I fail to understand what you ask here. If I get it right, you ask "Do we place our votes now based on flavor-names and dislikes?" and then you ask "If not, then what do we base our votes on?". Right? Is that what you mean? If so, I would not base votes on the "flavor name stuff". By the way, I think dedo is town (judging by his name stuff and the way of my PM). What to base votes on now? Hmm... Gut feeling? Logic of reasoning? But not on "name stuff".

Of course you do! Good job, too!


I'm not as good at the game as others so I have to count on lesser tactics and hope for the best.


Good stuff right here. I thought you weren't making yourself favors and it turns out it was all carefully planned master play.


I'm starting to get it now. Why didn't I thought of this?!


You already said this earlier yourself. If everyone indeed doesn't like another person (and there aren't duplicates) it's basically given that some people will hate scum. Do you honestly believe this bears any usable weight by itself?


The flavor itself doesn't mean too much on it's own. But I feel the related discussion provided some interesting results.


You do. Why wouldn't Leonard?


It wasn't just for fun.


Not really.

While thinking of vote-worthy ladies, I feel comfortable for voting Leonard or flubbucket. Leo - based on some funny gut feeling. Flubbucket is as flub, as he gets. He always looks scummy to me. Especially now that she (flavor gender) is more interested in touching herself than scum hunting.

Vote flubbucket

HypersomniacLive is too smart to be town. He must be scum. Idea not confirmed.
Krypsyn is... Well... Krypsyn.
Too early to lynch drealmer. There is a big fuss, too easy to miss-lynch.
Trentonlf is strange. I like trentonlf. No, I did not sleep with her. She is fun. Can we keep trent in the game?

No ideas about others.

Where is agent???

Looks like it's time to...

Unvote Hunter65536


@drealmer - my impression so far is that you find anyone who disagrees with you as scummy. Any thoughts on that?

Fine. Fine. You asked for it. Here we go...

To be clear - I'm not scum.

Well considering how much of a hullabaloo has been made over it, may as well have everyone share their info.

Ummm, no? I never said a character name in my post.

I don't really. See above.


Dead line is approaching so I think it's vote time.
Vote: flubbucket

I disregard it because it becomes "meaningful" after the fact someone flips Mafia, and even then it' doesn't really add anything. It can't be used in a meaningful way in terms of scum-hunting, imho.
If everyone has someone unique to dislike, and it looks like this is the case (I dislike someone), then it's inevitable that some will have the role-names of the Mafia, and any third-parties that may exist, in their PMs. Something you said yourself while replying to flubbucket. But somehow it has some extra meaning and weight in this case before anyone dies?

yogsloth's big on flavour, also hates sitting on our thumbs. especially on D1; I'm surprised you don't consider the possibility he added that bit to keep the game-thread alive during D1, and get himself a few extra kicks and giggles out of it.
Looking at this discussion, I'd say his idea was brilliant and a big success.


[emphasis added]

Except that this is not what you were going on about till now (posts #51, 102, and 111).


Happy to have been of service, ma'am!



Wait, you mean to say that you've witnessed flubbucket being more involved in scum-hunting?


*wipes tears of laughter*

Best argument evar.



Can't imagine what makes you say that...



Reason?

That's what I get for having two games open at once. Ignore - nothing to see here!
