Good to note that you have come out of the woodwork to defend Zorclex. Thank you.

Ezio (2181 D)
30 Nov 16 UTC
I can correctly "find" every scum in this game if I simply go around assuming someone is scum, and explaining why they did all of their actions as if they were scum. I could just as easily do that as if they were town.
@everyone does ND actually have a record to base his claim off of, or is he just talking smoke like Chaqa?

No, ND's a self-obsessed moron, but he's always like this. Just gotta answer him if he happens to pick you and tune him out otherwise.

I'm not gonna catch up until tomorrow.

@ND: In point 2) I also just said make note. that wasn't really to say I didn't do it, but to say who did. 3) I said he was a spammer. Can you deny that he is? Sure, he counted the posts ans didn't post as much in this game, but give it time. And I said that in the past, he posted a ton. I don't see how that's framing a false narrative. 7) Do you wan time to say I'm the best player here and lie? Okay, I can do that if you want to hurt town by me lying. But what I see and I'm sure several other players who have player with me can see, I'm just admitting that I'm not terribly good at this game. Look back at M23 and D1 of M24. You'll see that I'm not lying, I'm just bad. Trying to get better, but that got me killed last game, so maybe I should stop. 10) What? I'm stating the facts. I've been involved in conversation, I've pointed out weak arguments, and I'm making people talk about me. And sure, maybe it was some character assassination, pointing out that you've been absent all day, but you were.

If Classic Scum is stating the facts, I'm evidently playing like scum.
ND (879 D)
30 Nov 16 UTC
@Ezio: I gave my reasons for my argument against Zorclex. To my knowledge, I haven't accused anyone else of being scum (maybe you). So, keep exaggerating and defending. Looks like I have riled you up to the point you had to ask @all about me. Very interesting developments.

-other things-

I could comment on ghug. I see that he has retreated to his long history of picking on me. That's fine. It's not really worth my time to respond to him because he is a hapless nitwit with an abysmal record. If you notice he has (twice) floated around my posts with his usual 'air of authority' to lampoon me. But, in actuality he has contributed ABSOLUTELY nothing. He is a poor player, bad, vile, and a waste of my time.

@Zorclex: Um. it's not up to me to say who can post and how frequent they post. I look at what people to say when I form my observations, arguments, and cases. If a player is frequently posting that they are bad and inexperienced then yes it catches my attention. It's okay to acknowledge that you are learning and growing, but it's another thing to frequently say -look at me I am so bad and inexperienced!- How have I been absent 'all day' when it is a 48 hour phase? I mean, do you live in some deluded world where you think that everyone has the time to be active and online at all hours of the day and night? What the hell?
ND (879 D)

edit: at what people say.

zorclex (0 D)
30 Nov 16 UTC
@ND: I think you'll notice that I really wasn't saying how bad and inexperienced I was frequently until you showed up accusing me of it. I said it, what, twice? That's not really frequently.
You anchored on page 4, and came back four hours later. Okay, so maybe saying you weren't around all day was incorrect. I concede that. But your anchor didn't do you any favors, in my opinion.

Anyway. I'm off to bed. I hope I don't have to dig through too much tomorrow.

So ND is changing his meta back to M18'ish days, where he goes full on attack-dog and wont let go. Is this him being very obv-town or just trying very hard to impersonate his own style? Interesting he does go after a player ive been interested in as well.

Town: Ezio, Vecna,

Scum: Kakarroto (vig, please), Teacon, Glen, BRAINBOMB, Guak, Maniac, Krellin, Jamiet, Ike

Fireguy: Warden
Ezio (2181 D)

@Vecna I'm honored to be your only townread other than yourself. Surprising that so many are being scumread, especially Kak. I get the feeling that's a joke, but it seems like that is frowned upon here. Is that a real read Vena?

@ND. what do you mean by "information farming"? It seems that a quick succession of votes can be used as a way to be on the record for voting for one of your scum buddies without actually putting any pressure on them, but I don't see how it helps for collecting information. And if it was information farming somehow, wouldn't that be a town tell rather than a scum tell?
xorxes (31128 D)
30 Nov 16 UTC
@teacon, are you going to be lurking this game? You always end up being scum when you lurk.
Floodgates (2004 D)
30 Nov 16 UTC
Zorclex just seems like an overeager townie. Last game he was lynched D1. I feel like if he was scum he would lay low. Instead I think he's trying in his own (perhaps misguided) way to 'flush' out scum.

MoscowFleet is trying REALLY hard not to get lynched today. I can virtually feel the focus emanating from his posts :P

Brainbomb is doing exactly what he said he would do - posting rationally and in a more refined manner than he is used to. I like it. I also like his points about xorxes.

Pg 7 xorxes - "kakarroto, you started scummy but then improved. I'm going to @@VOTE kakarroto just to start with something." This doesn't sit well with me, it seems like abnormal behavior from xorxes. Therefore I'll join BB in ##vote xorxes
Floodgates (2004 D)

@xorxes - Teacon has to lurk as town now, to protect his meta :P
xorxes (31128 D)

@Floodgates, can you explain why my vote for kakarroto was abnormal behavior from me? What would be my normal day 1 voting pattern behavior?

Yo, I’m MVP, let’s kick this!

Shoot shoot maybe? shoot shoot maybe?

All right stop, Collaborate and listen
Watch me back into a winning position
I’m feelin’ that we gotta start brightly
Readin’ all day and into the nightly
Will it ever stop? Yo, I don't know
But give me a hint and I’ll go
Out on a tear and grab the game by the handle
Light up the page 'til it's too hot to handle

Krellin, will rush the room
While Brainbomb is killing from his classroom
Dresden will explode like once before
Vecna won’t win, but he’ll draw
We love it or leave it, it’s the game to play
Vig will hit the bullseye, cop will win the day

Yes it’s a puzzle, but, I'll solve it
Then catch a pokemon, and evolve it

Shoot shoot maybe? shoot shoot maybe?
Shoot shoot maybe? shoot shoot maybe?

Now that the party is hot heat
Let’s open up the floodgates, send in The Fleet
Get Jamie on point, to the point, no fakin’
Cooking NDs like a pound of bacon
Two Demons can burn in hell
Whilst Ragin Ike waits to hear the bell
Toll his name to the morgue he’ll go
We’re on a roll, is it time to solo?
It’s like mafia 2.0
We’ve catchin’ scum like clap from a hoe
They’re beggin’ for mercy, but that ain’t plan C
Did we stop? No, no mercy
Keep on pushin', for the next drop
Through the gallow’s floor, next on choppin’ block
And when he’s dead yo
We’ll continue to Glen and Ghug at the beachfront avenue

Sure it’s a problem, but, I'll solve it
Using acid to help dissolve it

(I’ll) shoot shoot maybe, shoot shoot maybe.
(I’ll) shoot shoot maybe, shoot shoot maybe.

Word to your Godfather.

rdrivera2005 (3533 D(G))

A lot to read on this game and I am still not on my best day.
Some random thoughts I want to write:
1) Ike reaction test or whatever seems silly but townie, why scum will do that and expose himself this way?
2) I really dislike the meta thing and this one with discord is even worst. I think Chaqa played bad there, but also Ezio, Kaka and specially me played really bad (I tried to give a gun to scum meme), but this have no relation with this game.
3) Zorclex play seems really diferent this time and he got defensive later, but last game he got myslynched D1 and I really think he would not play this way as scum.
4) BB is not spamming and we already got 10 pages, I will need vacation to keep up with the game.
5) I really dislike rap.

UNOFFICIAL VOTE COUNT:

Zorclex: 1 vote (ND)
GlenAlexander: 1 vote (Zorclex)
Kakarroto: 2 votes (Xorxes, Vecna)

Chaqa: 2 votes (Ezio, Kakarroto)
Vecna: 1 vote (DemonOverlord)
DemonRHK: 1 vote (MoscowFleet)
Jamiet99uk: 1 vote (Ghug)

Zorclex made that hard to count because he has voted about 20 times already.
