We already got the freaking LEADER. How many levels does this scum hierarchy have FCS?
Get rid of Cheney and Gdub is doomed regardless of freaking titles. Sheesh.

How was my initial response scummy? It’s pretty difficult to find a cite that says “a scum may snuggle a Townie prior to death in order to make the Townie appear scummier”.
Again, I will request that someone who finds my to be a scummy lil snuggler to find examples of where I have done this snuggling and how it has been detrimental to the Town. In other words,
Cite, please.
One more since I don’t want to get mod-killed for lack of participation.
I play a lot of golf. This is a pretty much self regulated sport but I also trust my competitors will play by the ** letter** of the rules since that is the standard.
When a ball moves from one position to another it is deemed to have gone there because you wanted it to go there - letter but if it’s just because you tripped and moved it an inch to a position that it is not that much favorable should it really be a spirit non violation. Resounding answer is - Call it on yourself and then get on with the rest of the round(s).
Every game has a rule set. You do the best you can with what you get dealt or can manufacture.
I go back to playing golf with my daughter - we’ve got rules. Just not the same as the ones that I have when playing for money.
Only brought it up again since Nanook also sees it as a slam dunk.
If we just want to dick around for dicking around’s sake - let’s just vote each other to make it more “equal”.
Hey, sach you gonna change the rule set at the end of the game or is it going to be enforced consistently to the end of the game
For the sake of discussion, let’s assume Nanook is town, because if he’s scum, it’s obviously in our favor. Right now it’s 5-1. If we mislynch, and he get’s mod-killed, and I die Tonight, it’s 2-1 Tomorrow with 2 confirmed and the one between RoOsh and bufftabby that wasn’t lynched today. Obviously, if we don’t mislynch, or Nanook is the last scum, we’d win Today.
And to Nanook, we got the Lead Assassin, so I think it’s pretty safe to assume that there is no other Godfather-like role remaining.
I am so sorry. After the game PM me and I’ll turn you on to my shrink. Gives me some drugs that makes the spiders seem smaller and not as threatening.
And FCS resist the voices that would have you post a reply - at least until we hear from sach.
And I’ve gotta say I am terribly dissapointed. I thought the “hoverers” were supposed to whisk the departed to some type of HEAVEN. ShoadowFacts mentioned something about a forbidden thread. Don’t sound as cool as a kegger and a whole bunch of virginians (sp?). Have the gods forsaken us?
Well, we do have nachos…
One last thought: this one is bagged if Nanook of the North Shore keeps his mouth shut. I like playing by rules, it’s what I flippin’ do. Having said that I’d still like to win clean(er). Nanook kind of your call but since I started this whole nonsense …Let’s string the tab and slam dunk this frigger. Caveat - if I’m wrong then Blam gets it tonight and then ped and I go to an incomprehesible clusterfuck.
No pressure, dude.
So is the idea pretty much that if NNS lets himself get modkilled, it proves his townieness, and we could still lynch the Townie of the buff/roosh pair first, and we’d still be alive (well the Town would be alive; obviously I’d be dead) to lynch the other one, thus allowing all 3 unconfirmeds to be despatched, and the Town to win?
Ok, I totally get it. I apologize for my slowness on the uptake. I think it’s a great plan.
Kill us all and let Og sort it out! Just make it quick, please.
BlasterMaster and others
You are the last of what I consider to be an “experienced” player left. If this is uncool please post so.
I’d like to win, but at the expense of doing something that makes a mockery of the process - no freaking way. I’d like to do this again and don’t want to get excluded for being some type of manipulator of the rules.
No comment on strategy. The rules have been stated, and as far as I know they are complete.
The rules are set and immutable.
Well, based on what Sachetorte said, thought he didn’t say it explicitly, it’s reasonably fair to assume that allowing himself to get mod-killed would essentially lock the game for us. Now, while I would consider it outside the spirit of the rules to deliberately get mod-killed, I would not consider it outside the spirit to use a facet of the rules to enable us to draw certain conclusions (for instance, as I was willing to do with MindWanderer, by letting him be mod-killed). So, we can propose a somewhat revised version of the plan to take advantage of this and remain within the spirit of the game.
Nanook, at this point I feel you’re the most townie of the remaining unknowns. We can also safely assume that you will be mod-killed if you don’t post. So, I propose this gambit. If you’re town, simply don’t post any more, your most important job is to convince us your town and anything else you’d say from here on out won’t help, if you get mod-killed, we win; if you don’t, but you didn’t say anything, we have strong evidence that you’re pro-town, and can lynch the other unconfirmed instead. If you’re scum, you have a rougher path. You know that you’ve done a good job of convincing several of the confirmeds that you’re town, so all you have to do is live, which you’d probably do fine with if you posted just enough to stay alive and not enough to draw extra attention. You also know that if you don’t post, you’re very likely to die. Hence, I will consider any additional posts from you, even to confirm the plan to be very scummy, especially since you’ve already explicitly stated that you’d had a similar thought.
Hence, because he was the only one of the three who, as of Dawn, was likely to win if he were scum, he’s the only one who actually doesn’t have anything to gain by trying to play the gambit (where even a small risk of avoiding mod-kill is likely a gain for bufftabby or RoOsh as scum). We can thus fairly safely eliminate him as potential scum, provided he makes no more posts.
As for the rest of us, we just spend the rest of the Day trying to sort out which between bufftabby or RoOsh is the remaining scum, on the assumption that Nanook doesn’t post. If Nanook does start to post, we lynch him. If he tries to post right at the end of the Day so we can’t react, we lynch him Tomorrow.
To the remaining scum, between RoOsh and bufftabby, you also know you’re in a bind, because you know Nanook is a Simpleton and will gladly die to confirmed, which means whichever one of you is scum, you know you’re 100% sunk. So… you might as well give up now. 
I agree. [Buff looks around, waits patiently for the scum to concede]
On a more serious note, I intend to take a look back at RoOsh and zuma sometime Today to see what’s there. You know, in the event that he doesn’t just concede now.
Eh, the guy’s busy. We can give him a minute. 
Eh, the guy’s busy. We can give him a minute.
Damn. Is double-posting a scumtell? I swear, I got a timed-out message!
Well, if we give him a minute, that means you’re up on the chopping block alone…
And 19 minutes to time out? Geesh!
