ATM from my perspective remaining scum is likely to be between Hydrad, WW, faust, e and RR.

You really trimmed down your lynch pool, didn't you?

Well, this is pretty awsome. Good work, guys!

Things should be easy from here. I think e is townie. RR is town. gkrieg obviously. That leaves Hydrad, Egor, WW, me.

Well, it's not me. Egor feels like town; he tries to change his meta, I think he's less likely to do that as scum. Hydrad/WW is a wash.

Vote: Hydrad

We should lynch someone. WW, Awaclus, I'm fine with anything. I don't think there's much more to get out of this day.

The great irony here of course is that Adam takes the exactly same attitude towards f.ds that he accuses f.ds to take towards Making Fun: Always assuming the worst instead of cutting them some slack sometimes.

17232

This example might not be the best to help your case. f.ds is not your basement, it belongs to all of us, and if anyone gets to decide whether or not people are welcome at f.ds, it is theory, not you.

17233
Wooo!

Somebody hammer! EFHW, come on!

I voted you because I wanted to see how you would respond to pressure.  I was hoping someone would follow and put you at L-1, really.  Hence, 'there's an easier way'.  But I didn't get so much from it, you're still pretty null.  Faust seems to have strengthened his town read, but I don't know if I trust Faust.

Vote: Awaclus

Why would you not trust me? Even if I'm scum, my reads would still be genuine.

What can I say, you're just not trustworthy.  I mean, you've left your Library in ruins for, like,  years.  Pick up some books or dust or something.

But seriously, you've argued against what you're saying now before.  As scum in this situation, you don't have the same knowledge as in other games, but you are biased by knowing you're scum and wanting to look town, so your head tells you "play like I play town", which does lead you to "find scum", but it's subtly different than coming in as town in the first place.    You may be motivated, then, to say things that make you look townie, or do things that you think you would normally do as town.

Well, I agree that I may act differently as scum, sure. My question is, do you think I would suspect different people if I was scum? You seemed to imply tht my reads cannot be trusted, but why would scum!me not do his best to find scum?

I still like my WW vote. Though I might be convinced on Awaclus. He feels off here.

I don't really want to lynch Roadrunner... do people really think he comes out scummy from all this?

Yes

Well, then I guess we have to disagree. I think his posting is very much townie.

Ben Carson ends campaign after disastrous primary results

Long-time frontrunner Ben Carson has announced that he would end his campaign to become president after bad primary results. Experts believe that his statements concerning the assassination attempt on former candidate Donald Trump have caused his bad performance.

Looking only at the past months' poll numbers, noone would have expected these results for Republican hopeful Ben Carson. After only receiving 1.6 percent of the otes in South Carolina's primary and a similar result in Nevada's caucus, he finished even behind outside candidates such as Mike Huckabee. As a result, Ben Carson suspended his campaign immediately.

Many observers believe that the bad results may be due to Carson's comment on the terrorist attack on Donald Trump last month. Carson stated that he was "disappointed" in Trump: in the opinion of the neurosurgeon, Trump is to blame for the deaths of two bystanders that were shot while the terrorists tried to kill Trump.

"If Trump had stepped forward and had assaulted the attackers immediately, fewer people would have been hurt", said Carson in a debate following the attack. His contenders have criticized Carson harshly for these words - Chris Christie for instance called the statement "despicable" - but Carson has not backed down. In a later interview, he even added: "In a way, what happened is fortunate. We all know now that Trump does not possess the courage it takes to become commander-in-chief."

Carson's demise opens the Republican field widely. With only days left before Super Tuesday, it remains completely unclear who will take the win.


XerxesPraelor has been lynched! He was Ben Carson, the Vanilla Townie!

Night 3 begins now and ends on October 30, 6 pm forum time. Night actions are due within 24 hours.

And I will vengekill whoever hammers without first posting intent.

Really? I mean, quickhammers aren't great, but it's not like there's anything to claim, so why do we need intent to hammer?

I want people's reads before the day is over. That gives a lot of information.

Well, I agree, but once we have those (I don't know, a Day before deadline?), can't we just hammer?

Some playing advice for gkrieg: I suggest you keep your reads hidden at almost all times.

So, WW is either telling truth and hadn't read his PM (in which case he is exactly average lynch, so I'm ok with that considering D1 lynch statistics I did some time ago) or lying (and most likely scum)

Yes, I love his lynch very much now, need to consult vote count before voting though

I wanted to make this exact point.

And no, I don't know how old he is. But that really isn't a defense, it's an excuse. A good excuse maybe, but still.

Yeah... I feel like I can read RR, but he hasn't flipped in any game so far, so I might just be completely fooled. But at any rate, I don't want to lynch him today. I feel like partnerless!scum!newbie!RR is likely to slip up at some point, and he hasn't so far.

I tried to generate some confusion earlier, but it didn't work too well.

Trying to generate scum slips? Wait until he says he is scum in the thread? What kinds of slip do you require? Evolving personality within the game is normal for a new player, I will give him that. But I am suspicious of how that evolution is happening in this game, and think it is characteristic of newbie scum

Well, uh, I can't really dive into this without refencing ongoing games, so let's just leave it at that. I think there are posts that are much more likely to come from scum than from town.

Yeah, well, I don't think that's true at all (else we could just randomly vote). People act differently with different alignments, even if they do not have partners to act differently towards.
