flubbucket: Do you agree HypersomniacLive should be stopped before he recruits me and we take over town for glory and fulfillment of Supreme Leader?? may he be forever praised.

dedoporno: So, lynch HSL cause he's the CL or if we don't and he actually is he should consider recruiting you?
flubb, if he isn't the CL himself, will probably be recruited tonight anyhow, no matter who the CL is. He made such a big fuss about being recruited that he made himself impossible as recruitment target, because everyone expects him to be recruited. Which in turn means that no one will believe tomorrow, that he actually was recruited and this means he is the best recruitment target available. Isn't WIFOM nice?

mchack: point taken. you're right of course. But when you're lynched, there's not much more fun to be had in the game, so I'd still say you weren't serious.

flubbucket: Why do I get the prickly feeling you might be smart??

heh. I definitly have no Idea where that feeling comes from. (point in case: I always stumble over how to write definitely (looked it up now)

about HSL and you taking over? I don't believe either of you are cult today but tomorrow: it's different. I get the distinct feeling that in a C9 each day is going to be Day 1 just with less players. Since each town assertion we make about others has to be set to 0 again, because everyone might have been recruited.

As for today I don't believe HSL's scum now, I'm quite sure he could have had an easier time not getting lynched, without constantly making cunning observations and asking difficult questions. I'm rather inclined to believe that's hunting scum, as opposed to just trying to deflect attention from himself.
argh, now you'll ask me what cunning observations he's made and which difficult questions he asked. Well please don't! (maybe you could do it, and post your findings? *trying to make flubbucket work*) I really have no time for another ISO right now, since I have to be at work shortly and will only be back around 11pm (utc+1 = cet. actually I think it's utc+2 since it's summertime. this is so frustratingly complicated) hopefully in time to see the day end.

If not in time: I still believe the best chance of hitting scum today is Hunter (based on how I think, CL would play to not get caught), so I leave my vote there. If stuff comes up, last minute questions, claims (hopefully not) whatever, I won't be able to respond, but I promise that, if I make it back in time before Lynch I'll respond as fast as I can.

I prefer bourbon. Wine has sooo many choices. Seriously WTF?!?! It's grapes for corn sake. Squish 'em, ferment and let the party happen. How can you have thousands of iterations of grape squish?? Whatever.....

I am for reaching a lynch. So I'm willing to switch my vote. However.....

I am certain HypersomniacLive (as cult recruit) will be a force, a dangerous force. Finding the cult leader on Day One is like playing the lottery. What are the odds??

I don't know about all that but you just triggered a thought that didn't occur to me so far. I don't want to to about it Today since it's a long-shot but in the off-chance it actually happens that would be a fantastic and quite elegant and subtle scum play. As a matter of fact I hope it does happen just because of how cool it will be.

That's not necessarily true. If we do have a second day someone might have to change their standing by necessity. The stronger their stance was the more noticeable the change will be. In addition to that we should have more context to work with - the lynch, Wyrm's setup and whatever it brings, maybe other things as well. But in general, yes, if you reached a point where you decided to trust someone Today, Tomorrow you should no longer count on that.

What are your alternatives? Are you willing to switch to whomever?
OK, I'm starting to agree with Trent that apathy is taking over.

@HSL, we are nearing the deadline mark and you're yet to make up your mind. I know you have RL issues to deal with but since you shared that you made a few appearances and are still to cast whatever vote. I don't think that's helping anyone despite the conversations that are going on.
Hmm... all these posts about apathy...

Seems so. And I'm travelling to Berlin again - and the internet in German trains is... lackluster at best. So this will probably be my last post before the Deadline. I'll try to look in later to help avoid a no-lynch. But no promises. I think we have a good chance with Hunter and I still also wouldn't be against lynching flubb. I'm not voting HSL today and, obviously, I'm not voting myself ever. And that seems to cover the viable options we have at the moment. Unless everyone else decides to lynch someone totally unexpected in the deadline panic.

I'm not touching flub nor HSL, but I'm fine with Hunter and you (sorry). I'll do whatever one we can guarantee. I don't know about others but if we even start going there things will probably go to shit anyway and the lynch will fail simply because there won't be enough time for people to make up their minds.

Heh.

And for the record, I didn't start, and don't keep, doing what I'm doing because you FoS'd me. Not sure you actually believe that yourself.

mchack: [...] So whatever you think about his play I think we can definitly agree that he's engaged and is calling people out and making enemies. There's 6 people out of 7 he has confronted about something or other, so it's definitly not some lay low, under radar kind of play. [...]
What about it being the play of the person that made all the WIFOM 'he wouldn't do this if he was CL' argument regarding the play of a couple of others?

trentonlf: My thoughts on the votes:
1. The votes on Hunter, I think they are bad votes because he’s probably town
2. The votes on you, I think they are bad votes because you’re probably town [...]

What am I doing about the apathy besides sighing? The same think I always do, try to encourage people to come to a consensus after about three days and then nothing else. So I guess I’m doing nothing about it, it’s what I’m good at.
[emphasis added]

Perhaps it's just me, but how is staying out of the discussions, unless something really jumps out at you, trying to encourage people to come to a consensus? You asked Bookwyrm627 for his input on the votes and the reasoning behind them, yet you too had to be asked to provide yours. And even now, only in broad strokes - why do you think Hunter65536 and I are both probably town?

Bookwyrm627: [...] Example:

HypersomniacLive: His later reads are very, very neutral, at best;
avatar
Bookwyrm627: Quite the déjà vu moment. There have been a couple of other times that I could dig for, but that's the one that really jumped out at me and prompted the comment. [...]
That was deliberate; there was a reason I asked you about his posts and reads, and you said exactly what I was thinking.

The point of my request to elaborate was to see if you read more into it.

Bookwyrm627: [...] I've spent the past ~2 hours rereading Dedo. I'm satisfied that he is town (for now).[...]
Elaborate, what about him made you reconsider?

I haven't made up my mind yet, and would like a reply from Bookwyrm627 regarding you. But I don't like Hunter65536's reaction in post #315. Starting the winking and nudging as soon as he got his second vote was premature, imo, and comes across to me as fearmongering more than anything else. So, that's another strike against him, so leaning more towards him right now.

And since flubbucket has been mentioned/discussed, again - I was reading his posts mostly as baiting people, and trying to provoke a reaction from me. But I've started to wonder - for all his accusation of me in his post #232, he avoids taking a stance on anyone, including myself who supposedly is his preferred lynch as CL (though his post #333 makes it sound like his vote is based on who among the players he thinks would be (the most?) dangerous as CL; doesn't necessarily mean he's sincere here, of course). And it's started to look and feel like a meticulous effort; Is it enough to go there Today? I guess not, but I've made a note of it.

Under which circumstances in the current (Cult C9 semi-open) setup would we not have a second day?

Regarding the "someone might have to change their standing by necessity. The stronger their stance was the more noticeable the change will be" - more than a few people seem to be playing for the case of a possible recruitment Tonight as to not have to make a (noticeable) change.

Do you want to fix that post too, HypersomniacLive? It seems perfectly legible to me, but feel free if you think it needs it. Same deal applies, just reply to this if you decide to edit.

edit: Actually, I was wrong. Same deal does not apply.

Really? Are you asking this for real or are you fucking with me, just to not respond to my post without asking a question?

Anyway, my understanding is that if we manage to hit the CL today they game will be over. Do you think it won't be ending today?

That's a fair point. Still, I don't think it nullifies what I said earlier.
