On the record, I think Axxle is more likely scumlurker than townlurker but could be either.

Hey Galzria. by the way, for next time you impersonate me. When I post in quicktopics I use jtotheonah, with the T reinserted and a lowercase j. Had there been more people in the speccy who had been in QTs with me before that might have given you away.

363 gave me a gut scum read. Bunch of reasons.

1. He intro'd the post with this big "I haven't posted yet so I gotta get into the game" sentiment that felt like posting just to be seen.

2. Then he sort of scolds everyone for voting (at all), which seems like a bid for town cred.

3. And then the last bit has a hint of the bad kind of fishing.

And that's sort of all he does in the whole post.

Yuma, some of the numbers in the OP have converted to emoticons.  Can this be fixed?

They can be fixed by inserting tags. (8[b][/b]) becomes (8) instead of (8).

But then how did you just type ... oh, nvm the quote button answered my question.

Vote: Qvist

for reasons.

@Eevee.

Of course it's possible. As a town player, I don't know anyone's alignment for certain. But you're certainty reads scummy to me.

And now, back to my family. I'm quite V/LA-y this weekend. On the offchance that I hit L-1, kindly resist the temptation to hammer before I check in.

Lets play a game:

@ everyone in this list.
{joth, axxle, eevee, ashersky, voltgloss}

Provide your top 2 scum reads and the 1 person you would bet the game is town inside that set of 5 people.

Still catching up, but SCUM: Eevee, ashersky
Town: Voltgloss

Waiting for yuma's game to start...my Buffy game needs to fill up.

People, join ash's Buffy game! It is a normal game so I'm told!

It's normal, and newbie-friendly.  It's just themed.  No Buffy knowledge required.

But really, shame on you if you have no Buffy knowledge.
Ok, I'll bite, who or what is Buffy?

Have you seen the Avengers movie?  She's what made that guy (director) famous.

don't forget about Doctor Horrible... That is what introduced me to Buffy. Although I think that is backwards compared to most people.

I saw the musical episode of Buffy at SDCC a year and a half ago with some friends.  That got me into it.

I was in a production of the musical episode with some friends. I was already pretty into Buffy by then though.

Yes, yes it will.

Volt: The #1 scummy thing Eevee has done is thrown the brakes on the yuma lynch. As scum, that's a very gutsy thing to do. Almost unbelievably gutsy.

If they're both scum, he's done it to save his partner, which is crazy because it ties them together in a very bad way. It's possible though. After all, it's almost working. Remember, scum just has to push for a couple mislynches to win, so maybe Eevee figured it was worth the risk if #3 is still flying under the radar. (Much like Robz and I blatantly outing ourselves but keeping FTL covered in Resistance IV).

But if yuma's town it's more interesting. In that case, this has been a bid by scumEevee to gain major town cred by halting a wagon he knows is bad. In that case he was probably hoping the yuma wagon would go through anyway, but he did his job too well.

So to answer your question, I don't know. Either seems plausible, but I like the both scum theory a bit better.

this is unfortunate timing as the next week is not going to be good for access for me. I will try to be around.

as promised, Vote: Eevee

Thanks for making the choice between you and ashersky really easy.

inb4 someone asks for my case on Eevee and/or accuses me of OMGUS: He's almost single-handedly responsible for stopping the yuma wagon in its tracks and he generally seems WAY too sure yuma is town with no evidence, and in spite of evidence to the contrary. I have been expressing a scum read on him all along.

He just made a long case on me with virtually no content, basically just reposting yuma's suspicion list and adding "because he's scum" to the end of everything I do. Pretty lazy.

7015
BUT, if we lynch Dsell... I will have a better idea of how to use my cards. I assume the same is true for the rest of you.

I have a card for every occasion.

7016
Idk about you, RObz, but I said earlier that I would support No Lynch unless I had a rock solid scum read. And nobody can call this a rock solid scumread. So why not go back to no lynch?

7017
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So good. That felt good.

Hard to say why/how we won, though.

You had Robz on your team.  In the land of Resistance, the Robzteam wins, apparently.

I actually did lose Resistance I... me and eHac were Spies.

This game, I don't know, some benefit perhaps, to being an obvspy? I made the Resistance waste a lot of chatter on getting me 100% confirmed as Spy. And because I was under so much suspicion the whole game, I didn't really incriminate anybody else, because I was never in a position to even act like I was Resistance ang get my fellow Spies in trouble. Maybe? I don't know.

You totally outed me! My outrage at you for that was only 50% fake. But at least we were on the same page about throwing each other under busses and trying to make it look like ftl wasn't our third.

7018
Archetype, MOAR setup questions: Does the scum who makes the kill also play a card?

7019
Robz, I know you like to mix your play up purely for the sake of mixing your play up. And I know you're probably running out of new approaches after all these games. But I'm not going to give you a free pass for self-aware badness. If you think your case is bad, don't make it.

I happen to think my case on Dsell is pretty decent. I can't remember ever having a scumread on Dsell before, and now I do. That must mean something.

7020
How did we manage to win that game? We screwed up a lot. Thank goodness ftl managed to stay slightly cloaked. TOward the end I just stopped posting because I was afraid whichever way I weighed in I'd reveal which of shraeye/ftl was a spy...

7021
Should I remind people that Robz is terrible at reading me? In MIII he was sure I was mafia (was town) and in MIV, for most of the game, he thought I was town (mafia).

@Jo, that is such a generic statement that could be applied to absolutely anyone who's ever driven discussion in a game of mafia ever. Care to give me some specifics about where I've steered the conversation away from? And don't say I tried to take heat off of Frisk because 1) I seriously thought it was because of that RVS, and 2) I hardly see how making an exclamatory post filled with excessive punctuation is really steering the conversation away from his lynch.

That was more a critique of your argument (Why wouldn't I be laying low?) than an accusation per se. Worth mentioning: you've managed to take quite a bit of heat off Frisk, albeit by taking on to yourself.

Next time I'm not at work, I want to look back and see if you have been subtly steering the discussion elsewhere. Will certainly be enlightening.

7022
I think I explained that, clearly. There's usually plenty of other activity that I don't need to be the leader. Here, we have just 12 pages a couple days from the deadline (and the original deadline was earlier!). That's hardly enough info to get good reads. I'm trying to create discussion because a lot of the typical discussion leaders just aren't. I think the setclaim, while probably a fine pursuit for scumhunting on later days, has really slowed us down today. Nothing is happening, and how are we supposed to develop reads when nothing is happening? So I try to make things happen and foster discussion. I'm apparently not cut out for it.

But the fact that you are trying, while nobody else is, is what makes me sort of suspicious.

This logic seems incredibly backwards. Lurking through the game is what lost hydra mafia for the town (and probably has lost town other games). And I was totally guilty of it day 1 in hydra because if everyone else is lurking, I could totally get away with it! And it was great for the mafia. If, by trying to create discussion, I succeed in creating discussion, how is that bad? If no one else is trying, should I match their apathy? When I'm town, I like my games to be active, and if it takes me trying to get others to talk, I will.

The thing is, if you drive the discussion, you get to decide where it's going. And more importantly, where it's not going.

/in

was MOnster Rancher the one where you could put in music CDs and they would unlock monsters?

Yes.

I spent way too much time thinking about that concept, and whether there was one specific CD, perhaps hinted at by a series of clues in the game or promotional materials, that would unlock some kind of insanely powerful beast.

Well, my lunch break is over and I need to get off F.DS so I can write this stupid story. (Last day before Thanksgiving break = complete lack of work ethic).

If a yuma hammer isn't dropped when I get back (and I highly doubt it will be, for whatever reason) then I'll change my vote next time I come online. Either to Eevee or ashersky.
