Dies to Removal

Ham was absolutely being sarcastic, accordingly to the "I promise" in his sentence.

So, had ham stayed put, you would have hammered?

I didn't want to hammer on NightArcher but I agree with what you've done guys.

What they've done? What do you mean by that?

Pedrobear, please answer this question.

I don't know. Maybe I'd have hammered him just before the deadline.

Voting and hammering on NA.

Yeah OK, maybe NA is going to be modkilled or maybe not since he can at any time come back from the brink and post "hi" so yeah I don't think that is a valid point

NA was last active here on site this morning (April 19), his inactivity in this thread is on purpose and not the result of being busy.

Not a townie mindset.

I mean, if on day 1 there are people claiming they have insider knowledge someone is scum, which is what I am getting the impression ham and io2 are claiming, I would assume the correct course of action would be to lynch the culprit, then seeing how he flips and coming back at day2, either a) confirming ham and io2 as town if he was scum, or b) lynching ham or io2 if he was town.

I mean its not like we are at LYLO or something, the game just started, but what do I know rite?

This Colonel guy is making a lot of sense this game. Let's just lynch NA and go from there. Assuming this works out, I don't want to be counting on a modkill to help us since it's not 100% guaranteed to work (not to mention that it's a little unsporting to intentionally unbalance the game).

Indeed. Common sense conservatism like Col K espouses above is what the people want!

I've been as transparent as possible from the start, delivering confirmed scum to the town for justice at great personal risk.

To fall back into petty in-fighting would be beneath you, gentlemen. We're supposed to be better than the Democrats!

Vote Count 1.8

NightArcher (4): imopen2; Col. Khaddafi; hamfactorial; Stardust
Pedrobear (2): RedNihilist; ( G_R )

Not Voting (3): Pedrobear, rezombad, NightArcher

With 9 alive, it is 5 to lynch

Let me know if I missed anything.

couldn't have said it better myself, Col.

he could post quickly to save himself before the deadline. if he's dying anyways, and we're telling you he's scum, why are we trying to get him killed on a technicality?

Your refusal to lynch scum is noted for the record.

OK, so NA is somehow confirmed scum, as long as you guys remain "confirmed" town because you used power roles to determine that and NA should be lynched instead of the guy who ignored my vote on him, suuureee...

All I'm saying if give rez a chance to show up before deadline.

And why do you guys keep implying that I unvoted Archer when I haven't voted for him at all?

Calm down GR, we can lynch Pedro after we take care of NA.

Ok, the Colonel's post makes a lot of sense.

I'm giving him 24 hours before I hammer, get him back to the game.

Calm down GR, we can lynch Pedro after we take care of NA.

Let's make a plan for D2 in case of whatever happens during N2 and how NA will flip.

If he's scum, you'll all get in the train of lynching me. I got that.
If he's town, ham and imopen2 will be in a bad situation because everyone would be suspicious on their plays on D1.

Again, I repeat clearly that I don't want to hammer on NA because :
-It's not needed at the moment, he will certainly get killed, or in case of emergency I'll hammer and I have no problem against that.
-I don't want to appear as the scum player who hammer on a "confirmed" scum Buddy to get town cred.

I have decided to make one last effort to find a replacement for rezombad. If someone does replace in, they will be immune to modkill for post count reasons for the remainder of D1.

So if you guys have access to anyone who may be interested, have them post in the replacement thread.

Deadline has not changed, nor will it if a replacement is located. But they will NOT die at the end of the Day. _{(Unless they get lynched, that is )}

Thanks Manders you're totes fabs

We'll wait for him, then

Yay for Manders. Bring ER

NA is not town and i don't want to risk you not being there to hammer in the case of an "emergency."

if you are town, i don't think you worry about "appear[ing] as the scum . . . ." but all i know is NA is scum and you and G_R are insisting on some pretty loose lines of play imo. I'm okay with waiting for Rez in D2, but nothing he says will change who i want lynched today

Well, Kraj guy posted in the replacement thread but not in this one, so we'll greet him tomorrow.

Unvote
Vote N_A

about time

Effective immediately, Kraj is replacing rezombad.

That is a lynch! EOD post will be posted later. Feel free to talk until then.

Hi Kraj, tell us your impressions

Setting: New York, NY; Primary night

You’ve all gathered together to watch the polls. Seeing with incredulity that Trump is obviously going to be the front-runner in this state, you start to turn on each other. Biting, scratching, pulling hair: the scene looks like something straight out of a kindergarten classroom. American democrazy at it’s finest.

As the smoke settles, it’s clear that one has taken the brunt of the beating. Rising slowly to his feet, NightArcher looks around at all, a look of utter despair on his face.

“What in God’s name has come over you all? Why are you doing this? We are all on the same side! We cannot let the Mexicans and the Muslims tear us apart like this!”

“What did you just say?” asked ( G_R )

“I mean, the poor and elderly?” queried NightArcher.

“It’s too late for that sound statement, NightArcher!” proclaimed hamfactorial. “You’ve just shown your true sides, and we know you are a supporter of that vile, disgusting creature, Donald J. Trump!

String him up, guys! Let’s rid this campaign of this lapdog!!”

With RedNihilist closing in with the rope, NightArcher screams, “You’re all a bunch of losers!”

As the noose tightens and his feet start to swing, you all begin searching his pockets for evidence of his true alliance. Reaching the last pocket, Stardust pulls out a simple business card…with a deadly visage on it.


NightArcher has been lynched. He was Rick Santorum, Party Spy for Trump

Startled by the ghastly sight, imopen2 dropped dead of a heart attack. He was Lindsey Graham, Town Investigative Committee member


It is now Night 1. If you have night actions, submit them as soon as possible. Day 2 will start Monday, April 25, 2016 whenever I get around to it.

Apologies, I've made a small change to the EoD post. I forgot something I meant to do.

Looks like it's going to be a pretty slow day at work, so I should have Day open soon.

Heading back into the conference room, you all look around to see how many have returned for Day 2. A quick head count shows there to be 6; Col. Khaddafi hasn't arrived yet. Suddenly his picture is shown on the projector screen with a giant red X drawn over his face.

Col. Khaddafi has been killed overnight. He was Jim Gilmore, Town Investigative Committee member

It is now Day 2. With 6 alive, it is 4 to lynch.

I would like to extend my condolences to the families of my friends and committee partners, Jim Gilmore and Lindsey Graham. Imopen2 and I tried to conceal the identity of our third committee member as a means of protection from scum, but sadly Col K was found out. Perhaps we weren't thorough enough in our efforts.

I will carry the torch of investigation and help to deliver justice to honor their memory! God bless them.

Yeah, right.

You don't want to cross me, Red. You aren't even American, and aren't eligible for president. Why are you still in the race?

ham, anything enlightening from you today? Perhaps the alignment of another scum?

You were part of a three person group. Were you masons (and knew each others' alignments) or neighbours (and didn't)?

We were masons with daychat. We all had identical Role PMs, confirmed by Manders, so we were able to coordinate immediately.

I don't have another scum target for us yet, but I'm working on it.

Hopefully we hear from Kraj soon.

Vote Pedrobear

Hey folks, I'll just jump right in with my T/S list based on my read of day 1.

hamfactorial - Confirmed town. Nuff said.

Kraj (rezombad) - Smart, sexy, cuddly stoner. Town.

Stardust - Town. Early posts read like a townie trying to start discussion. Added critical second vote on NightArcher.

( G_R ) - Leaning town. His defense of NightArcher at the end of the day is reaaaaally suspicious. However, that's the only point against him and he's actually been posting. I've played game after game where scum just hardcore lurked and skated by while townies who actually try to play the game lynch each other.

Pedrobear - Scum
He claims to be new, and I believe it. His first few posts are just banter. His first actual content is #67 in which he immediately casts doubt on ham & imopen's claim. But he just says "somethings up" and leaves it to someone else to fill in the blank. It reads very much like newbie scum who doesn't know how to react. When stardust explains he's voting pedro for lurking, he plays the newbie card. Then takes his first stance that GR and NA are scum, for lurking. Then says people tend to think he's scum, for lurking. When prompted to post a T/S list, he says he reread but has no opinion. It gets better when he notices imopen's comment about a third mason and asks who it is, then doesn't want to hammer NA because he thinks it'll make him look bad. So, he's actively lurked, doesn't have any opinions, and doesn't want to hammer scum because he's concerned about how the town sees him. His next post, which is the most content he's provided thus far, is wanting to make a plan going into night, which is almost always a bad idea for the town.

RedNihilist - Scum
He has been actively lurking all game. He has 29 posts, but his entire content is an unexplained vote on Pedro in #41, getting upset in #192 that Ham fingered him as NA's potential teammate, and then hammering NA. Every other post is either cute remarks, or prompting other people to post content. He does post any reads of his own, actively pursue anyone, support anyone else's line of inquiry. And then hammers when it's a foregone conclusion.

I'd happily vote for either player. The possibility that Pedro could just be making newbie mistakes instead of newbie scum mistakes makes me prefer red.

Vote: RedNihilst

I'd also vote Red over Pedro. First, I need to figure out what the hell to think of 3 confirmed townies in a 9 player game. That bugs me. A lot.

I'd also vote Red, and I'm curious if anyone here has anything interesting to report about him and anybody that he may have targeted last night.

I'm being vague in the interest of national security, of course.

I didn't target anybody, you racist.

I've been mulling this over a bit, and decided I'd like everyone to give their input on this.

9 player game makes two mafia most likely. That leaves seven town. If three of those are masons together, what does the game look like when two non-masons are killed Day 1/Night 1? Day 2 would have seven alive, requiring every single non-mason voter to be on someone to get a lynch through. Essentially, a full claim at that point seals the game for town, since a lynch of a non-mason would force the mafia to kill a mason, else they lose immediately. The fact that we apparently have a daykill ability of some kind makes this even worse - the masons could well have controlled the vote Day 2.

Basically, if ham is town, something is wrong with this game. Please discuss.
