I would be willing to lynch Giraffe (peeker’s suspect), Brewha (my suspect), and um… Weedy. For asking peeker to target himself. That’s not only not proving anything to us (because peeker could fake it) but peeker won’t really be able to use the data to his advantage either, being silenced and all. Plus wagoning Scuba\_Ben. Fell asleep last night while I was doing the re-read. Pardon me, I’ll get back to work on it. In order: 1. Weedy 2. Brewha 3. Giraffe ---

I’m playing. Seems to me this game started with 37 players and there’s about 5 people actively posting. Why single me out? I have very little time or inclination to read this board on the weekends. I got stuff to do. I’ll get all caught up tomorrow - I hope. Christ, there’s almost 1500 posts on this mammer jammer already. Any time I’ve spent has just been reading. And don’t worry peeks, I’ve played with you before - nothing you’ve said has been more dickish than I can handle. ---

posting as i catch up. > [@peekercpa](#): > > i’ll type real slow for you. apparantly i am a post silencer or some such animal. who should i silence tomorrow? assuming that you don’t lynch me. i mean scum will never kill my butt at this point since i really can’t fuck with them too much. seriously if you had to got through another Day without a post from someone who would it be and why? you know your life (game) hinges on your answer since there are several that would just as soon lynch you - including me. > [@Weedy](#): > > Peeker thinks his power prevents someone from posting, because he targeted Mykbot, and Mykbot hasn’t posted today. > > Peeker, can you target yourself? That would probably confirm it. > [@Suburban\_Plankton](#): > > This might confirm \*\*peeker’s \*\*power to himself, but it’s not going to do much for the rest of us. If he doesn’t post at all Tomorrow, is it because he is a Town Silencer who self-targeted, or is it because he’s a Scumbag who decided to take the Day off? it would be best to target another active player to confirm it. i must say that the mafia gods have a sense of humor if they gave **peek** a silencer role. another reason he shouldn’t target himself is if he indeed is a silencer, he might pop a vein not being able to post. 😃 ---

> [@brewha](#): > > I’m playing. Seems to me this game started with 37 players and there’s about 5 people actively posting. Why single me out? More or less a shot in the dark, and one of your posts gave me the creeps. Nothing more than that. But I trust that more than the cases made on most anyone else at the moment, because I know the source of the suspicion and I know it is townie. I also see that basically no one else went for it, so the odds are better the scums don’t like my idea. ---

There’s no way I’m going to remember anyone’s straightdope username and the other board username that goes with it. This is a post which doesn’t do anything but adds to the post count, otherwise known as the “I’m not a lurker” strategy. It’s talking while saying nothing, which is the equivalent of lurking except that you’ll never get tagged for lurking while doing it. Scumbag’s second most common strategy right underneath claiming detective. > [@brewha](#): > > Wow. woot the fucking woot, Peeker.

I put that in quotes, because I don’t necessarily believe it’s the case. Of course, it’s all a WIFOM case and have no idea what to make of it as of yet.

Fakey sounding sentence: “I hope we didn’t scare you off”. The word “we” is used more by scumbags than townies, on average. Psychological tic to try to blend in, doesn’t even realize that they’re doing it. Scum tell is called “we, we, we” all the way home. Not always accurate, some folks like using “we” regardless. But still. > [@brewha](#): > > Yeah, I’m thinking the hamsters are going to have a heart attack at about 3PM. +1 post count. > [@brewha](#): > > I’m playing.

And don’t worry peeks, I’ve played with you before - nothing you’ve said has been more dickish than I can handle. Sounds nervous and also gives excuses. +1 post count. Hasn’t made any waves, hasn’t been that controversial, main suspect so far was peeker and Sister Coyote. I disagree on peeker at the very least, and the post on Coyote didn’t feel genuine to me. Lots of fluff, excuses, +1 post count to avoid being a lurker, but the exact same actual content as a lurker who has posted twice. As such, you gotta die. Lynched, that is. Maybe you’ll get all strung up today or tomorrow - I hope. ---

Latching on to someone else’s reasoning gives her an out if Ed turns up town. Hey, it was Naf’s idea after all! And the reasoning of “just not quite right” is pretty weak to begin with. > > **Vote Sister Coyote** Okay, trying to rationalize the gut reaction. Here’s what the brain sees that maybe the gut saw first. 1. “He started with coherence - which has been pointed out - is not like a villager peeker.” My response to that is that if he were a scum peeker, he would be intelligent enough to continue going “woot the fucking woot” and being his usual self. Trying to act un-peeker-like isn’t going to help his survival if you’re already aware of his style. Acting different, in this example, actually is points in his favor. It means he’s not trying to avoid suspicion. 1. " So, either he is town and is just back on the vicodin and vodka diet, or he’s scum and playing his usual self to hide his “scum tell” My response to that is that this directly contradicts the first thing. Playing his usual self? I thought he wasn’t acting like himself? 1. “Of course, it’s all a WIFOM case and have no idea what to make of it as of yet. So, stinky smelly FOS, but not enough for a vote.” You won’t even back up your own suspicions with a vote, and your suspicions don’t even remain self-consistent. As such, you’ve said a whole lot of nothing. 1. “I don’t like it. Latching on to someone else’s reasoning gives her an out if Ed turns up town.” That sounds suspiciously like you’re trying to “sound townie”. You see, that’s a nice, specific thing I can digest and consider as being truthful or not. The bad news is that when it came out the other end, it smelled like bull s\*\*\*, not a nice happy fart. It’s entirely too paranoid an assumption for so early in the game. You’re describing a complexity to the move which may not even exist, thus is an \*\*intangible \*\*thing you’re finding scummy, rather than a \*\*tangible \*\*thing. I can’t see the intangibles, so I can’t assess whether or not your suspicions even make sense. Your case against Sister Coyote is that you’re paranoid she might have a double-motive for her vote. But that’s nothing I can taste and eat, that’s YOUR IMAGINATION. Show me something she actually said that I can sink my teeth into as being more obviously deceptive, not just what may be possible. Show me the tangible reasons she’s guilty. The case I make on you, for example, shows how your behavior tangibly gives us nothing to work with. That’s true regardless of your motivation. Your motivation, people can speculate on, but the TANGIBLE is that you’re posting fluff. That’s real. I can see that. No one can debate its existence. So, you think peeker is scum for not acting like himself while acting like himself, and you’re paranoid about Sister Coyote. As a matter of fact, screw it. **unvote: Giraffe vote: brewha** I gots to kill me a second scumbag in 24 game-hours. ---

Almost zero opinions. A vote on me with almost no explanation. ---

> [@brewha](#): > > I’m playing. Seems to me this game started with 37 players and there’s about 5 people actively posting. Why single me out? hey, i didn’t single you out. **astral** was in there as well fcs. i was just starting at the bottom and working my way up. but it is a tad odd that after getting a poke you pipe up. so who do you think are scum? not just 1 but maybe 1a and 1b kind of thing. gotta say my top three are: **giraffe ben pizza** **jan** gets a real close 3rd to **pizza**. i’m also worried about **draino** now that i think about it. the other bastard that i worry about is **sach**. i don’t know if the others have players that are so good that it is scary. we’ve got four. **guiri** (dead), **bill** (plays pretty much on giraffe but not playing), **story** (probably the baddest of the bad but not playing) and fracking **sach**. i mean each and everyone of 'em are good enough that if they make a case against you it is normally so compelling that you feel like lynching yourself. capiche? ---
