I would consider a policy lynch lynching someone due to their behavior without trying to make a judgment on whether they are actually scum.  For instance, "He is a lurker, therefore lynch him because lynch all lurkers."  The policy is "lynch all lurkers" and this is a policy lynch. 

zero129 seems to define it as a "lynch for no reason", or perhaps a lynch "for the sake of lynching".  "We want to lynch someone today, pick someone at random and lynch them":  zero129's idea of a policy lynch as I interpret it from what he said.  The policy is "we should lynch someone", I guess. 

The definition that seems like it should be compatible between the two of us is "A lynch that a player is willing to do regardless of whether they think the target is scum, based on a policy e.g. "lynch all lurkers", "always lynch on Day 1", etc."

You make some good points. I think it would just be rather easy for mafia to play differently or side with town to blend in, and perhaps throw their teammates under the bus, which is a strategy that could throw town off.

I suppose a lynch that could provide some information is better than no lynch at all. Based on my gut, and the fact that he was the first lynch vote with no actual reasoning and it just seems fairly random.

Vote: Trucks

How are you bucking the trend? Up until FF, nobody actually said anything about zero being scummy, and nobody has after either.

Did you mean to unvote with this statement by the way, or were you on board as a policy lynch so this revelation about his alignment has no bearing anyway?

I didnt really feel like the was much in it that needed addressing to be honest. Well other then the fact that your really down playing my part in Mr.P's lynch...

Anyway i know the point you been putting to me.

But my point is this. Why the fuck should i see myself as a liability when its others that are trying to tunnel me with stupid reasons for it?.

Fact is i would of won the game two games ago if i didnt have to leave. I helped win last game. I have pinged mafia lots of times.

To come after me with such silly reasons as "Your a liability" when i have done more good for town then others (I mean look at how bad you guys lost last game without me). Will make me look at that person as scum looking for an easy target, But like i said mafia's mistake is thinking im an easy target.

The is a reason i dont trust people who use such silly reasoning for a lynch since 99% of the time thats how mafia gets a mis lynch...

the way darwin played and the way arminillo is playing is different. darwin basically just made excuses, with the majority of excuses being that he was new and confused. Arminillo seems to be actively trying to participate.(plus I think he mistakenly softclaimed for the purpose of "being helpful")

I'm not liking platina's input so far. A lot of conjecture about the setup and whether or not to lynch a third party.

What about Trucks seems different?
