DARGARGOYLE
before you can understand dargorygel you must understand the beautiful healthy inmer child that lives within dargy. This is a man who will wander into your place of work and give you a hug. He is an old soul, full of joy and talents. He can farm, teach, play dip, play mafia, create stories and characters. Dargo has a moral compass and plays mafia in a reserved manner as all alignments. He is non aggressive and cheerful. Darg seldom gets upset and even when he is upset he tends to internalize things as if they are his fualt even if they are not. Hes a father. a grandparent. And a beautiful being.
That being said is darg scum? volume does not tell the tale. darg rarely posts in large quantities. his mafia play is usually fairly hard to distinguish from town.
Darg is not usually very strong at defending against pressure because of his personality.

Darg begins game using gimmick of 1 word. and parks on percy. says percy is hedging.

page 28 / orig I'll be back tomorrow with time...
First, I was trying to be funny, and no one noticed. I was posting with one word. I suppose it says something about what folk expect from me.
It was kind of fun. Mostly it was just reactive posts. I DID have a couple of conversations (accusing Percy Williams of hedging, for instance) that were fun with single words. It actually made me think more about articulation than I am used to...
But in the end it is too hard and not really helpful.
A couple of obvious things to comment on:
Mass claim... while I do think that such a claim MIGHT POSSIBLY help us... mostly the concept has too many faulty underlying beliefs. It assumes a randomness of role that I don't think the GM's would do. It assumes that we will have LOTS of scum making false claims, when there is no reason for them to do so. I think bozo also is assuming (he lists this as a 'pro') that multiple fakeclaiming by lynchable scum is common. I think it happens maybe once or twice per game. So we MIGHT draw out a couple of scum... but mostly, we just give scum a map.
But I am not happy with how hard bozo is pushing for this. He seems to have some hope that he has a chance to succeed. I think bozo is smarter than that. So why does he not back off? Or did I miss a retraction?
Also, regarding D1 voting. I always raise an eyebrow at STRONG statements on D1. People who pretend to KNOW an alignment. Obv, only scum knows alignment.
Lynching lurkers? D1 is almost random voting, or at most, mostly gut feelings. Lurkers are no more or less likely to be scum. Lately, it seems, though that at least one or two scummies hide early in the game. So maybe lynching lurkers increases our odds.
I'll probably be able to read off and on... but won't have time to post much till tomorrow morning.

page 41 / orig Maybe this is obv, but it seems that bozo's relentless pursuit of a massclaim makes the most sense if he is the role-thief. One role already responded and claimed mason. And of course, if he DOES convince enough people, he finds a bunch of roles.
This seems like dargo had 2 reasons by now to unvote percy but didnt.
reason 1 to unvote percy was that the whole impetus for voting percy was the hedging. which darg admits was just a gimmick accusation
reason 2 to unvote percy is darg appears here to identify that bozo is likely not only mafia but is the role thief
Result:
dargorygel
Day-1 06:39
page 42 / orig My Percy vote at first was clearly a joke vote. Did no one else notice that he was blamed in the flavor for the end of civilization?
I get the policy votes. MF this morning seems reasonable, though.
I do think we need a non-policy option.
Presently, I am clearly not choosing the wine in front of me...
And Percy has seemed more and more questionable to me. In addition to what otehrs have brought up, he seems to be PR fishing... emphasizing clarification of those who have soft-claimed.
So I'll leave it there, for now.
I would also vote for Itshusoko, bozo, or foxy today
now he says percy vote is a joke.

page 37 / orig I was going to spend some time reading up on the latest events in the thread, but then Jamie took up my time in other ways. I need to cast a vote and the only moderate scumread I have so far is on darg, so ##VOTE darg. If I have time to be here later tonight that might change.

Before I dive into this post, thanks bo for articulating what I’ve been feeling in a way more clear and concise way than I ever could. Appreciate that. I have a lot of trouble following all these back and forth quoted conversations. I miss the old big monolithic “case” posts people used to make.
But on this post - dargo isn’t someone I’ve played with too much (or have forgotten if I gave), but this entire post seems hedgey and anchoring. “Sorry I was posting so poorly, but weren’t my one-word answers so articulate! I’ll be back and better later, I promise!”
Blegh. ##Vote dargo
At this point already darg looks like a vulnerable towny that scum know they can feast on.

page 41 / orig Because I might not come back, I'm not leaving my vote on MF
Moscow won't change even if we policy lynch him for his playstyle + I'm not a player that votes for past offenses so my reason feels non-game related
##VOTE dargorygel
it feels SO much better now
Make that 3 scummy ppl who pushed dargorygel.
And why? Because darg is on percy. And percy is town.
I think dargo is town. and 3 scum all pushed on him day 1.
