It has not been publicly stated or denied. That is, they might, or they might not, but I’m not going to say publicly.

:smack:

You’re going to have to unvote first.

test Freudian[/COLOR]

And yes, I am just claiming to be an innocent villager. Sweet and innocent. Adorable too. Like kittens. You wouldn’t hurt a kitten, would you?

I would if it was a nasty sea kitten.

Anyway, I think you should tell us what villager you are so we know if it’s worth our while to test you. I’ve already claimed–why don’t you?

Wow, Freudian is sure picking up a lot of votes quickly for no real reason; that always makes me suspicious.

Fluid’s case was based on the fact that FS is too vanilla and that her posts don’t have enough content. I kind of understand the logic of ‘too vanilla’ but I disagree with the content issue, there isn’t enough information for everyone to develop their own ideas yet.

Rex also sort of developed a case against FS basically boiling down to thinking that Daphne is working with FS so they must be scum. This also makes sense but I think that there is as much chance of catching scum snuggling a townies as there is of them truly working together.

The other three votes are pure bull. Daphne just me tooed Fluid, Tel doesn’t want to wolves to control the vote so he picked from a leader, Seeker thinks we might learn from testing some one. Of course we are going to learn from testing why are we going to learn more from FS then everyone else? Out of three choices why is FS the most suspicious? We are too far into the game to accept me too votes and in fact one of the reasons that Fluid suspects FS is of a me too post without a vote.

I don’t think that all three of these guys are scum but I’d bet there is some definite bandwagon hopping going on there.

Because claiming at this point splits the town? If I’m leading in the votes right before voting ends I’ll claim so people can compare my stated affiliation with the results.

Seeker definitely pinged me for going after Daphne so quickly. And now I feel like a lot of these guys see me as a safe target because…there’s no one else? or it’s just easier to deflect blame?

I missed this the first time around, but that doesn’t make it any less of a rule breaker.
NO EDITING!

Since this is the first time it’s happened, I’ll let you off with a warning, but the next (non-mod) person to edit in this thread gets modkilled.

Missed this one too. Okay, warning for you too, since I missed it the first time around.

Wait the mod can’t get modkilled? What kind of justice is that?:smiley:

:smack::smack::smack:

I meant to quote this post.

I think Freudian’s rise to the top hasn’t been as swift as you are making it seem. I also think you are mischaracterising several things here. I 'me too’ed Fluid in the sense that I posted my vote shortly after she did – but I gave several reasons (and actually enumerated a few more later). Telcontar had also expressed some suspicion of Freudian before his vote.

I also find your apparent acceptance of rex’s ‘case’ against Freudian weird – why is his bizarre theory sensible but my reasons (which are not ironclad or anything, but geez) bull? This seems like analysis that is trying to appear thorough and ‘concerned townie’ (oh no! mustn’t have a bandwagon!) but is actually just smudging people.

Huh? I didn’t edit.

Also, in the case of rex’s theory, you point out that it could be scum snuggling a townie – which was exactly what my vote on FS was based on (I’m a townie, she seemed to be buttering me up).

Any reason why catching FS for ‘snuggling’ me (you don’t know my alignment, sure, but in this scenario the snuggler would have to FS – I was the snugglee) would be bad?

No, you didn’t. pedescribe quoted your post instead of mine; I edited to make my mod request bold and green, so it would get answered.

Totally forgot about the NO EDITING – won’t happen again.

We’re wasting too much time talking about things that aren’t going to help us win. In the interest of building some sort of conversational momentum:

Mahaloth
You mentioned that you thought that the testerizer talk was a distraction (which I agree with) but you also mentioned that you thought it seemed scummy. Who did you mean, specifically? Several people were involved in the discussion, not one of whom was, as far as I can tell, Telcontar, the person you’re voting for.

Elendil’s Heir
15 posts to the thread. Almost all have been insubstantial and some of your strategic points have been questionable (and questioned). Since there was a little heat on you you haven’t really been participating in the discussion. Any thought about what’s bouncing around here? You suspicious of anything, or see anything the rest of us don’t?

**Oredigger77 **
Your vote for Seeker is based on a smudge and a hunch, correct? Is it not the case that your more recent posts against the coalition voting for Freudian are a “smudge” in the same way? Or are your suspicions about those three, even though they’re more strongly voiced, not as strong as those about Seeker?

Zeriel
I seem to recall that you like to play very aggressively and get on people – where’ve you been? There’s plenty more to break down out there this day, so I’m looking forward to your thoughts.

**
Mhaye**
Welcome. Your first post asked others to tell you what Telcontar had claimed, which you could have obviously answered yourself. Why didn’t you? What was the thinking there? I don’t want to, and I don’t want anyone else to, interpret that as more than what it seemed, and yet it must have been something, as the first post from an experienced player surrounded by newbs.

Telcontar
You were reluctant to vote for Freudian because Daphne already had, and Daphne’s number one on your hit list, is that correct? Yet for fear of leaving a tie for the wolves, you switched your vote over to Freudian. If I’m following this correctly, in order to avoid letting the wolves manipulate the vote (and presumably, by that you meant that you were concerned that we would be lynching who the wolves want us to lynch, you broke the tie by switching to vote with the person you’ve said is your #1 wolf suspect. What gives?

First, sorry for my edit. I changed none of my content other than to say my post was made redundant while I wrote it. Apologies all around(and it won’t happen again).

Help a fellow towns-person out.

  • I remember writing that the testerizer talk was distracting.

  • I remember saying the whole “wolves also being farmers/ranchers” was nearly scummy(I suppose I was thinking of Ichini at the time…I think).

  • I don’t remember saying the testerizer talk was scummy.

I may have said it, but can you find the post so I can try to remember what I was thinking?

Thanks!

I’ve been reading and re-reading everything from today, trying to find anything suspicious. Out of the people drawing the most heat right now - you, Freudian Slit, Telcontar, and Seeker - I’m sure at least one is scum. I just don’t know which one(s) yet.

I’m still thinking about Scuba_Ben and wondering why he was killed. That really hasn’t been debated very much. I think he did mention being an experienced player, so maybe that was what got him killed. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

I’m going to give today’s posts one more read and try to decide who I think we should test.

I certainly can. Jumble jumble…

As it turns out, you’re exactly right. You didn’t say what I said you said. You said:

My mistake and my apologies. Despite the fact that I muddled it up so badly, I think the question still stands - who do you think was driving the scumminess in that conversation?

Not editing, but my previous post was addressed to Mahaloth, of course.
And now I have to wait a minute before posting this.

I’ve just spent the last 2 hours or so reading another thread - specifically the other Mafia game I’m playing in. I hoped to save myself some time. Had I not had to need to spend some time in that game, I would have dug the info out for it myself by now.

I asked what Telcontar had claimed because, right now, I’d rather run a claimed Farmer through the Testerizer than a claimed Rancher. I’ll not deny that testing another claimed Rancher has some advantages - it will reveal whether the Testerizer is consistent - but I think it would be better to test a claimed Farmer first. If Telcontar had claimed Farmer I was going to vote for him. I still might.
