Could I have said “at that point” any more in that post?

@Drain_Bead

We can’t be sure, but we can be more sure than not, and in the context of the Oredigger vs. Rysto claim and counterclaim, it would make no sense for Rysto to have been the Scum in that situation. If Digger had been Town, at that point the Scum know that he’s the Doctor, and they can plan accordingly. There’s no sense in risking a one-for-one trade at that point with a player who, IIRC, wasn’t getting any heat at that point. Scum’s main daytime goal is to expose Town power roles, not necessarily to get them lynched.

oh, is that what Meeko was referring to? I thought he was refering to his pending lynch.

I agree that the lynch of Oredigger made more sense from a logical standpoint. And it proved to be the correct move.

We lynch one of the unconfirmed, and if the game doesn’t end, we go into the Night with

Rysto
3 unconfirmed

Scum kill an unconfirmed (because they can’t kill Rysto) and we go into Day 3 handed with a confirmed Town. (Basically Rysto’s vote decides the game)

Or Scum don’t kill and we go into Day still at Lych or lose, but 4 handed.

I won’t get into the lynch or no lynch debate at 4 handed, because I just wanted to illustrate how I see the game progressing.

It’s not a hopeless as it might seem. If we’re right about Meeko, it looks good for us. If we’re wrong and at least one of Zeriel/MHaye were Scum then it still looks pretty good.

@Meeko

FWIW I take issue with this vote.

Scum could make neutral observations about everybody. They could then board a wagon on town with a simple Me Too!.

I mean, If you go around saying things about everybody, it would be all to easy to simply nod to the argument later and place a vote.

It would be a good strategy for Scum to start arguments on everyone. Then, once someone else forwards the argument into a wagon, that scum player could come back and board the wagon with less attention on them. They would sneak aboard the wagon, increase a vote on the innocent, and fear no retribution.

1. Uh, yeah, well are you forgetting that I was far from a band wagoner on the vote for Tom? I was one of the first to vote for him and I kept my vote on him for three Days until he was lynched and proven to be scum(well, he confessed before that, but I had my vote on him for Days).

2. Of course it is good strategy for a scum to spread arguments around on everyone and quietly jump on bandwagons. However, I clearly did not “say things” about “everybody”. I flat out said that I have no idea what is going on with Red, for example.

Day ends at 2pm Eastern today, or in about 2 hours and 50 minutes.

@special_ed

I think you want the people who are voting for you to conclude as follows:

1. Scum has been winning lately.
2. Town must be doing something wrong.
3. I think Meeko is acting Scummy.

However, that doesn’t mean I’m going to throw out all logic and analysis because it hasn’t worked in. I think there are lessons to be learned (e.g., Vigilante behavior in Colorless), but, overall, I’m going to stick with my best ideas in terms of hunting Scum.

That said, if you have some idea of how to hunt Scum differently and more effectively, I’m willing to listen. But please don’t jsut tell me I’m wrong, because that’s not helpful.

Interesting, you pass the buck to me before you even consider the fact that ANYONE else is acting more scummy.

Don’t throw out logic. USE IT.

Best ideas in hunting scum? I doubt you would use them if you are scum in this game.

I think at a certain point, however, we need to re-evaluate how e do things, we both agree that the later games could have gone better for Town, if better things happened.

I’m trying to do better things. I’m not passing the buck.

Looks like I’ll be taking my final drink about now.

Surprise me, but keep it stiff. Seems I will be that way soon enough.

Sorry, everyone, pulled into an off-site meeting. Back with results shortly.

Thanks for the update, I was fearing I would have to break out the emoticons next.

Apparently surrealism is not popular. Meeko (Artist) is dead.

[Drain_Bead]

Was starting to get worried that the vote was a little too unanimous and that our one confirmed Town was voting for someone else.

Good luck tonight, Rysto. We’ll need it.

Was there anything more I could have done?

@Meeko

not the time and place to discuss this.

[ComeToTheDarkSideWeHaveCookies]

I’m glad my Meeko perceptions are still calibrated. Maybe the next time they kick in I can actually talk some other people out of suspecting him.

My husband had surgery yesterday, so I may be a bit busy this weekend, what with taking care of him, the house, and a toddler. Will try to keep checking in, but may be AWOL until Monday when I can check from work.
