def Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 Come on, man. It doesn't matter if you're town or scum, this kind of thing is unproductive and frustrating. If you're a vanilla townie, as you claim, show some backbone and defend yourself. If you think there's a better option for a lynch, name that person and give a good argument for it. The only way this makes sense is if you're a jester, and somehow I find that unlikely. I have to agree with this. Pierce's apathy throughout this has been baffling. He might just well be a lazy vanilla townie, but if so, that'll be very disappointing. Myself, I've let scum off the hook for being apathetic, convinced that vanilla townies act so damn lazy, so I won't use that as a reason to change the votes today. But I really hope Pierce hasn't been simply lazy.
Piratedave84 Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 I made my point yesterday, there's nothing to add,it looks bad on me that there was no pic take on the day i was blocked but I'm not scum. I got nothing else to add. Feel free to set yourself back by lynching me. I also made my feelings on whom I thought was scum very clear so asking me to state them again is just counterproductive at this point. Scum is happy with this lynch and town is too bling to see what's happening. I asked Sigfried to have a look at the vote tally I posted and see is he could make some sense of it; he's in contact with the block which would have added a few names to the list of confirmed people, we didn't need the names, just pointers to see if we were on the right track, but he refuses to do so. So don't tell me I'm anti town and such, our speaker could very well have given us a better indication of where we stood but he did not, willingly.
def Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 I've looked at the tally, and there isn't much I can make of it. Some games are better than others. But expecting me to give a better indication of where we are is simply unreasonable. I led the lynch on Sinclair based on his behaviour in thread, and led the lynch on Stanley based on the investigator's results. That's better than most here. If you have better ideas, pioneer them, don't blame others for not supplying your lynch candidate.
Piratedave84 Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 I supplied my own candidates but I understand how I'm the better option; not lynching me would be retarded based on evidence however I'm going to tell you again; I'm not Octan. I was not expecting a candidate; merely input on the tally. You know of at least 3 other people (by your own admission) that can be added to the tally; you could at least have acknowledged that there were only 3-4 more possible scum and based on my tally, your knowledge and in-thread behaviour we could probably have saved me and lynched a scummo. This being said, my lynch will advance the town cause by eliminating a suspect and narrowing the field and I know it but I would rather have survived. Too bad.
Bob Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 This being said, my lynch will advance the town cause by eliminating a suspect and narrowing the field and I know it but I would rather have survived. Too bad. I don't think I buy it, sorry. Between your odd posts earlier and then actually voting for yourself it seems weird that you've done a complete turn around and are now trying to defend yourself. You've even gone the martyr route, probably to make me look suspicious for doing the same thing when you turn up as scum tomorrow. I just can't buy that you'd go from a lazy defence to now kicking it up only a few hours later without some sort of a pep talk or a radical change in plans on the scumboard to account for your going down. We should probably look at the people he claimed were scum, which includes myself and Hatley. I know I'm not scum, but he could have called Hatley scum as a deflection for when he turns up as Octan tomorrow.

Bob Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 That's it? You're not going to try to get me or anyone else to change their minds? You're going through all the stages of a caught scum. Initially jokingly giving up, an adequate defense to change our minds, "accepting" that you're going to be lynched and offering to be a sacrifice, and now going almost full circle and pretty much actually giving up. You've been in this thread every time I've showed up here, so it's obvious you still care. You're just trying to make it seem like you don't care. Make us see that you care. Try something other than nothing.

Adam Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Perhaps this will spark some discussion. Sent this to AdamHey there, I’m done for. However I’d like to offer you a chance for defection to the Octan Lobbyists. Dixon and the Loyals aren’t in nearly as good as a position as you think. Contact me. If this is quoted in the thread I will deny it. (Apologies if I sen this twice: I don't think my first message went through) Scaevola I received this late in the day yesterday before Sinclair (Scaevola) was impeached. I strung him along a little bit, making it seem like I was interested in conversion, but ultimately turned him down. Has anyone else been similarly approached?
Yzalirk Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 I didn't recieve a message like that by him but nonetheless, it's interesting? And by "defection", he meant to convert you to Octan?

You are right in this being a discussion point. I would say this is very important, why didn't you share it earlier with us? Any idea why you were approached? I have had no PM contact with anyone except for our speaker.

Are you using a text editor before posting here? Your font is adjusted for size why is that? You accuse me of being scummy and you spring his shit in us at the very last moment of the day; good job!

Judging by the votes against you as of now that is.

A converter would really throw a spanner in the works. I didn't receive a message from Sinclair, and it seems others didn't either. Why would Sinclair target you specifically? And how did you "turn him down"? Were you given a choice to convert?

I strung him along a little bit, making it seem like I was interested in conversion, but ultimately turned him down. Has anyone else been similarly approached? Hmm... I didn't get one of these "conversion" PMs either, so I'm assuming the role would only allow you one message per night if this is legitimate. A converter would really throw a spanner in the works. If Sinclair was indeed a converter, then would the remaining scum player choose to swap his role Sinclair or keep the kill role? Of course if there are more than one scum players left, then that decision wouldn't come as a problem... Why would Sinclair target you specifically? And how did you "turn him down"? Were you given a choice to convert? I agree with these questions. Out of all the other players, why would Sinclair pick you specifically other than that very few people have named you as suspicious? Also, I agree with Pierce on the grounds that your sudden bringing up of this information seems somewhat out of place.
Piratedave84 Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 But at the end of the day, it's you that is being impeached. Judging by the votes against you as of now that is. Talking like a true scum!
Yzalirk Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Talking like a true scum! Coming from the one who voted for himself and made little effort the defend himself, I think I'll pass.
def Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 You accuse me of being scummy and you spring his shit in us at the very last moment of the day; good job! I think that's a pretty townie move. Would he have revealed that if he were recruited?
Piratedave84 Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 I think that's a pretty townie move. Would he have revealed that if he were recruited? Said in the optic of saving my megablocks. Would you have the choice to be converted? I don't think so, you either are or are not like masons.
badboytje88 Posted January 12, 2015 Posted January 12, 2015 Perhaps this will spark some discussion. Nope I haven't received anything like that. Octan being able to recruit really slims down our possibilities. Anyone you have been trusting or anyone who came up loyal after investigation can now be Octan...
Tamamono Posted January 12, 2015 Author Posted January 12, 2015 Final Vote Tally Pierce Davy (Piratedave) - 10 (TPRU, Speedy, badboytje88, Bob, Goliath, adventurer1, Adam, Piratedave, Mencot, LegoSpy) With a unanimous 10 votes, Pierce Davy (Piratedave) has been impeached. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Speaker brings his gavel down hard once again, just as he did on poor Sinclair's head. "LR 456, a measure to impeach the Representative from Puesta del Sol, Pierce Davy, has passed with 10 votes!" Pierce throws his hands up in a big temper tantrum. "Yeah, yeah, yeah - let's all impeach me, everybody! You're all scum anyway!" "You know what, I'm just going to show myself out! You don't need to set your security goons on me!" "Out of the way, wimps!" Poor Rep. Hatley is knocked onto the bench. Rep. Matthews seems rather shocked. The whole of the legislature watches as Davy walks out the door. Nobody really expected this. You have 24 hours to get your night actions in.
