But we did not see full scale of Darwin's play until later on. Day one he just seemed the noob, as does amrinilio.
Does that meaan we lynch him, aka policy lynch?
Or do we hang around for days like Darwin.
Same concept.

What kind of policy would that be, though?  Lynch all noobs?

newb = first-timer, or at least someone with very few games under their belt
noob = someone that plays like a bafoon

This distinction is of the utmost importance, please do not confuse the two or use them interchangeably.

You say trucks is one of the easiest to read.

So have you figured him out already this game?

I'd say he's referencing my lack of enthusiasm when I draw the scum card.

Yep. This is something spurge demonstrated he knows about too, "He hates being scum and after a little pressure will crack." I've been unsure if in your quoted post spurge was trying to guage me,(town) get my thoughts on you,(town) or make me doubt a read on you.(scum)

I say this game that each day we make sure that each person is questioned and thouroughly pushed daily.

NO more, "well you are giving me a town vibe or leaving people off of lists". We keep on just skipping over people daily and they are the ones. Or others we are afraid to push them because they will push back and bite hard, so whether they are town or scum we steer clear.

I strive to do exactly that every Day.

But I am only one person and cannot focus on everyone all the time. I need other townies to step up and run with what I start on someone that later slips through the cracks.

spurge, you're being more rational this game than I am used to. What gives?

And what is a bafoon?  How is it different from a buffoon? 

I will never use the term "newb"; it has to be "newbie".

I know you blow up when you think someone is saying you never make sense. I'm not saying that is the case, like ever actually. You say a lot(I want to say more often than not, but I don't actually keep track) of stuff that I simply can not follow logically. Maybe it really does make sense to you, or maybe you spew random things to make it easier to avoid lynches when you roll scum.

Either way, I'm finding that in this game I can see how you get from A to B to C quite a bit.(I'm sure I can quote some instances of 2 to Q as well tomorrow if you so desire) I'm curious what sparked the change, or maybe you think this is actually how you always are?

Oh yes, you played and died the first day or something. I remember you saying in the dead thread that I had got the lynch changed to Zero, whether you thought I was scum or prof was scum I cannot remember. But yeah, you saw it all go down.

Yes I did follow it from the dead thread. You were my second suspect while Trucks was being lynched, but rereading Day One I had thought Mr.P was a likely scummate. I only thought you could be scum when you turned it into a matter of prof had to be scum and ignored Mr.P, but after some time I went back to thinking it was Mr.P and he played well to let you and prof have your back and forth.

Will be pretty limited for my posts again today. Gotta clean up all this snow and have a holiday party this evening to prep for.

Will try getting more active tomorrow.



Money can't buy happiness. Just video games, which make me happy.

^^Doesn't that only make 14 of 15 total players? I feel like 3 scum and an SK is pretty slim in a 15 player game personally.

Also, what is going on with people pushing policy lynches. Last game, when I even so much as suggested a time limit after several days had passed, I was shunned and people indicated there was still lots of info to receive. Now we are magically ok with lynching somebody right away?

I'll have to read up day 1 of last game and compare it to the opinions today cause I'm interested in what all changed, but I'm limited to my phone tonight.

Well, the first thing you can note is that different people might be mafia this time. That already causes some of the changes. The other thing is that typical policy lynch targets from last game (spurge/zero) were actually scum. This doesn't rally mean they should be lynched, but people will probably be way more inclined to push for policy-lynchees

As far as this game, I am leaning towards the likelihood of there being 10 town, 3 Mafia, and 1 3rd Party (most likely SK). Not only does it even the playing field for both town and Mafia, but generally with games on this site with over 10 players, a SK (or other 3rd party role but mostly SK) tends to occur.

@zero, do you really think saying spurge is on your side helps plead your case for sanity.

Arminillos play style can not be attributed to Darwins. Darwin acted like he was constantly waiting for someone to tell him what to say. it could still happen but as of right now I am not jumping to conclusions.

@theprof, my issue is moreso with him trying to push stefl to roleclaim earlier.

can you please point me to that post where platina pushes for the roleclaim, I am kind of out of order because i checked a few posts yesterday before going to sleep, but didn't go for a structured appraoch or marking where I actually stopped, so I might have missed that D:
