nmillar: Not sure why you think I'm more / less lurky than I am in any other game I have participated in? If you're going by my online status, then that's down to me leaving the forum open in a tab while I'm "working". And if that's really the reason, then damn, your stalking skills are on point!
avatar
Vitek: You haven't posted in more than 1 day (can't tell exactly from timestamps) and when I mentioned your name you posted right away.
That's what felt lurky.
I never go by online status, I am not a stalker. :-)
Way to dash all my dreams in one fell swoop. I thought we had something.

Ah yes, Ireland, where soup of the day is usually Whiskey, which is something coming from somebody who's country specialises in such culinary delights as Buckfast and heroin.

Funny!

Also funny!

He does have a point though. Was it just a coincidence?

Like I said earlier, I normally have a tab open while I'm "working", and refresh periodically throughout the day. I happened to refresh shortly after Vitek mentioned my name, so of course I'm going to respond!

Having said that, I am happy to admit that if I don't feel I have anything useful to contribute, or a funny comment to add (funny in the loosest term of the definition), then I do tend to be quite lurky, and I think Joe's summary is pretty accurate:

avatar
JoeSapphire: NMillar is fairly typical - lurky but aggressive. Sticks to the shadows but comes screaming out of the woodwork with a suckerpunch.
Actually looking at it NMillar is less lurky than I think... certainly more active than I've been. I like his response to Gym breadcrumbing too, direct and pointedly trying to avoid giving away info.
And of course I'm ruining that all today by being more active than I normally am, so the obvious question is whether I'm trying to make a conscious attempt to contribute more, or whether I'm only doing it to try and remove suspicions from me?

Fair. As a matter of fact this just happened with your response. I forgot a tab open and I just now saw the [1] in the tab title.

I replied below to BjGamer/Pookina/Nmillar......please make sure to read the replies written to you as some are important....thanks to y'all:

bjgamer: Okay, well at least we (wife and I) are already current on what has been happening so far. Fair warning, this is the first time actually playing and the last game we had time to follow was ZFR's HP, so references to more recent games or meta-reads we won't actually be up on. Thanks to Lift's Desperado play, at least we are confirmed town.
Welcomest of welcomes to newcomer tweety bird. May you enjoy the game with all of us, and may you also help us find scum forthwith. :)

++++++++++++

Pookina: Well, I don't think there's any other better leads. I still don't like GH for crumbing a vague PR rather than something already established, like I don't know, the role he actually got in the PM. And since I'm not voting anybody (according to the last vote count at least (then again, I can unvote without names now)):
If I crumbed something established(i.e. a more common other power role) that'd be lying, now wouldn't it?

Also the role I got is what I claimed.

So now I must ask, why vote me? Are you as bad at ferreting out scum as I am, is it s bit of OMGUS for my partial suspicion of you earlier, or something else?

Pre Post Edit: After seeing later posts by BjGamer hinting at it, I looked back.

In Post 166 you voted me as well....so you unvoted me, to vote me.

And this re-vote comes after I have revealed I am more or less un-nk-able.

U wouldn't happen to be scum!Pooks pushing to get me lynched(as I am almost certain I cannot be NKd), would ya?
o.0

nmillar: It’s sure, I say it’s sure quiet around here, you could hear a caterpillar sneakin’ across a moss bed in tennis shoes.

Though I think it's just Catte and I that are UK based (Joe doesn't count as the resident insomniac), with only Dedo close to the same time zone, so shouldn't really expect much for the next few hours.
Dunno about them others, but: I normally stay up awhile then sleep/am afk for around 14 hours(that includes time I use at the end and start of each day to get ready for bed/wake up)...so often there will be a flurry of replies from me then crickets for a good long while.

And question: In case u didn't reply yet to this particular topic....what do you think to the whole "Pooka votes me then forgets/'forgets' and revotes me" thing above?

I hadn't spotted that, but not sure it's any more relevant than Catte forgetting who he voted for during RVS - strange that my two prime suspects have both now been accused of doing so though!

If I wasn't clear earlier, I just want to re-enforce that I believe GymHenson's claim, so my suspicions are purely on those who remain on that particular (albeit small) wagon. This does leave me in the unenviable position of having the next most viable wagon going ...

Not sure the name-calling is entirely called for. ;)

Yeah, it must be total coincidence that both of those on my wagon have trouble(or seem to have trouble) remembering who they voted for. ;)

But in all seriousness, I am guessing both scum(if there are only 2) likely wouldn't both hop on my wagon......could be one town and one scum trying to hide among them, or one scum and one neutral....etc.

Yup.

So if I may ask: whom do you suspect more of the two? Pookina or Catte? And why?

nmillar: Not sure the name-calling is entirely called for. ;)
Now let's not be hasty and "fling accusatorial statements".....could be Trent just got a premonition of Pooka's next name change. :D

Honestly, I don't really suspect one more than the other. Catte may be our old-rivalry (which re-surfaces in every single game one way or the other - see rule 2) influencing me somewhat, so I'm sticking with the vote that I originally placed on Pookina in RVS.

GymHenson: Ok then.....my PR is: Paranoid Gun Owner

If someone uses a NK or PR power on me(town or scum) they will get shot ded.

The mafia wiki says to either be vague about it(I guess to hope scum target such a PR and get eliminated), which is the risky option....OR to full claim from the get go, which is the safer option.
Ok. I can see why you did what you did now. It might have been a strange way of going about it but it does make sense.

Unvote Gym

I'm going to post this and then continue catching up.

Well my sleep schedule at the moment is bed time at 6:00 and getting up at 14:00 so that'd put my apparent timezone closer to the American side of the Atlantic. I'm pleased to report the fridge saga is resolved so I'm no longer so distracted.

Thanks for your thoughts on this.....combined with Catte's latest posts, it is helping me to make some choices re: voting.

Wait.....so did you not read that claim until now? Or did you read it before, and just go over it again recently?

That aside, I am willing to give you the benefit of the doubt....so:

Unvote Catte

And as Pookster(Pookina) seemingly "forgot" thay had voted me then unvoted me before re-voting me(which is odd as heck):

Vote/Anvil Splat Pookina

(Also good to hear yer fridge thing got taken care of :))
