response to voltaire... not including quotes cause hard to read etc...
- I was the first to raise suspicion of Robz. I see no reason to find suspicion here for pointing out that Robz could be overexaggerating his emotions. None. I didn't vote, i just noted it and said it was something to consider. And still a possibility I think.
- I was also the first to raise suspicion on chairs. But I didn't vote there. I voted for mail-mi. Why? Because I found his actions to be scummier... maybe you want me to vote for people I don't find scummy a la you:
And I myself have an established meta of voting for my top town reads (well, it's more complicated than that, but that's the best summary) under the theory that scum know playing scummy is obvscum so they play towny. That's why I've landed on you so far.
which I honestly think is the worst strategy you could ever have. Just WIFOM yourself until you get dizzy...
- I am not sure what your point is about my response... all you say is "this happens." So what? What does that signify. I think my response was perfectly legitimate.
- And again I acknowledge the case on mail-mi is weak. I have said this before and I will say it again. Early day1 cases are always weak, and not always do they serve the ultimate purpose of finding scum. Sometimes someone gets really lucky and hits on scum right off the bat. But you can't tell until you flesh it out and try it out and see what other people think. And as the mail-mi case fleshed out, I saw that it was weak and going to stay weak and saw that there was a better case on nkiribt.
- Ummm. Random lynch. Obv joke... because what do I say in the part above it... "I'll take a look at nkirbit and lio" That was my real suggestion, not the random lynch. Thanks for snipping the real content and leaving the joke...
- and agian, why am I backing off mail-mi... again do you want me to stay on a "weak case" (your words here) that has stagnated and died? Yeah, that sounds like a great play for town...
- nkribit case has merit and I still think it does. I have reservations. Obviously I have reservations! It is flipping day1! Only twice in my entire mafia career have I ever been certain day1 about a lynch. Only twice! Of course I am going to have bloody reservations, especially when the entire town has either voted or said they were willing to vote. And you better believe I will unvote if I have those reservations and people have said they are willing to vote before I think we have fleshed out this conversation!
Goodness, you unvoted me when I had 2 votes remember?
The unvote was for an abundance of caution.
So it is only scummy when I am cautious, but when you do it, it isn't?
You say there is no smoking gun here. There isn't, but there isn't even a gun. All you do is post a bunch of quotes and say I am voting, but you dont' explain why it is scummy. You just post quotes and leave it at that. Because what I am doing isn't scummy. What I am doing is scum hunting and trying to find a lynch that is correct. I think we are all just so used to town being bullheaded and stubborn in being "100% certain" that they have found mafia that we don't know what to do when we see someone who actually is uncertain and is trying to find it, but willing to make mistakes and "weak" cases along the way to get there...
Anyways... mcmc brings up a good point in that people have said they would vote nkirbit, but didn't. This is very true. words are wind. actions speak volumes. I still think he is the best lynch option. Far superior to me and I don't see anyone else at the moment that is any better. And his buddying to me does seem like an attempt to sway me away from revoting him.
vote: nkirbit that is L-1.
