Shadows

We blew your careless and idiotic plan to try to convince the scum that they should contact you? Did you see the part a few days ago where Ensign Pewter tried this? I'm starting to wonder who suggested this plan to him. Wouldn't it be funny if it was the same person that just got you to do it...

Sure. You're as much of a megablocking retard as she is. I'm not calling her out as a neutral, I'm calling her out as a moron. Until your post, I had no doubt she was neutral, it's why I keep saying we can't trust them. I only said that her roleclaim was obviously megablocks. No one has said she isn't neutral, except you. Did I mention that you're a megablocking retard? Good. Oh dear, I've been busted for not believing an impossible roleclaim. Whatever shall I do now?

You really are this stupid, aren't you? You want us to believe that you must be night killed to pass the power on to the town, yet you also claim to be the vig. How exactly would we accomplish this task, assuming you can't just commit suicide (which you kind of did anyway). To take it a step further, if you would lie about something like this, which you clearly are, why would anyone believe that you were actually able to reveal any role? Even the scum can see through this nonsense. I repeat... neutrals.

OH! Now it all makes sense! Neutral vigilante who knows who the scum are but doesn't kill any of them and will grant one side or the other the ability to kill. Now you're just making yourself look like an idiot. Start packing, babe.

Not once you're gone, you only want to help yourself, and you haven't earned it. I know where my vote is going today.

I've heard better roleclaims, especially back in my days with the FBI. I'd suggest you give up this nonsense and start helping us right now, or we'll disprove this faster than you can say "magical poopy mushrooms." megablocking neutrals, nothing but trouble, just like I said.

Exactly. Except it's been the confirmed loyalists who have done the most steering (usually towards themselves) and died for it. Activity is an illusion employed by the scum to appear helpful, because they have the luxury of doing so. They know who their allies are, so there is little risk for them, as long as they aren't too aggressive about it. For someone who is town, as I am, it's hard to be helpful without a power role to back it up, and if I did have one, would I really want to expose that by openly stating anything? At this point you aren't being stupid, you're just focusing on the wrong things, in my opinion. The reason I asked for a list is to see if you had adequately evaluated everyone or were just stuck in one thought pattern. I'm a little wary of Chief Security Officer Lieutenant George Harper, for one. I know that he was certain that Pewter was town at the time that he led the vote against him. Since that was before Pewter's weird "I'm scum" gambit, it's hard to justify. That point has been nagging at me ever since. Even by your standards, he's both inactive and not helpful to the point of detrimental, yet he isn't mentioned as suspicious. That's the interesting part. This may be a point I can't argue with. Is that an admission that you're neutral? It's the only way that comment makes sense.

Interesting. Could you make a list of the helpful and active people, so we'll have an idea of your standards in those areas? Personally, I haven't seen where active people have done us any good, except to get themselves lynched, and I've seen people who have been less active than I have, yet they don't get mentioned. This should be fascinating. Neutrals are always trouble. The lack of a third kill last night combined with an unknown affiliation might mean the vig finally did something right and rid us of a serial killer. It would be the first thing anyone did that actually helped us.

In Witch Hunt, the stump was actually a witch with an ugly grave. I've blocked that whole thing out of my mind. Can't wait until Forest II!

Ask Mustafa about it.

There is no way that they would bother testing an entire figure, he's either wrong and believes it's all authentic, or he's ... wrong. We'll just leave it at that. The helmets all exist, however. Sometimes you make me cry. They would be manly tears of joy, but let's face it, they aren't, they're tears of OMG...

THIS. This is exactly what I'm talking about. Now they hate the roleplay. You know, because we're megablocking playing roles in a game of life. Oh god, can't have that. *sits on the stump* At least we understand each other. Sounds like a scum defense if I ever heard one. Maybe it's exactly the best way to keep people from stepping up and voting for someone he might not actually want voted for?

That stumped me earlier. Stumped. Ha. So yes, I had to ask the same thing already. Apparently, the new kids think it's cool to go on the holonet and visit this mafiawiki place where they make up stupid acronyms for things they should just say directly. They also fail to realise that our own brand of this game of life isn't exactly the same as the one the commoners out there play, and some of it doesn't apply here. Kids today. Agreed. As I said earlier, he's attracted my attention before this and it just isn't getting any better. Vote: Julius Burbank (Brickdoctor)

When I was a tree stump, the bastard host didn't let me post. Oh, and yeah, you're a friggin' My Little Tree Stump now, don't forget that exploding is magical™

I worry about anyone who is so certain of anything in this game of life, so consider us in mutually raised eyebrow mode. Plus, to be honest, something hasn't felt quite right about Burbank for a while now and a seemingly inappropriate outside defense just adds to that.

The Wilder situation is interesting. So are a couple of others right now. I can't add anything, so I won't confuse the discussion by speculating at this point, but I am interested to see where this goes. I hope no one is using their role in the simulation to attempt to influence this real-life situation, it has no bearing on the matter and claims of that sort will set off my scumdar faster than someone flip(z)ing out.

Idiotic. *throws another bourbon soaked kitten in the fire* Toasty!

Something has been nagging at me for a while, so I want to throw it out there. Ensign Pewter was using the strangest method of finding the scum that I can imagine, going so far as to impersonate one to try to trick them into confessing, thinking they would be joining forces. It clearly didn't work, but why not? By the time Harriet exposed him, he almost had enough credibility to be believed, I know we certainly believed him and were sending him on his way to death. Why didn't the scum believe it? If they had, I'm sure one would have made contact at that point and tried to at least secure the other scum he claimed to be with, yet that doesn't appear to have happened. To me, that means one thing, something in his claim was impossible and revealed that he was lying. So let's review what he said ... The weird part is that nothing there is that hard to believe, certainly not the kind of thing they should have known not to believe. Why didn't it work? Hell, if I'd received it, I would have been tempted to try playing along to learn who his ally was, so I'm even left to wonder why the loyalists who received it didn't try that. I'm glad they didn't, it would have confused things even more, but still... At the same time, what the megabluck is wifom and why do people keep saying it? I swear, someone has been making up new things while I wasn't looking, probably in other simulations I didn't participate in. I don't like it, I don't like it one bit. I think I need some warm milk now, and bourbon. And kittens. Turn up the heat, it's freezing in here. (that's my impression of those old people who complain about the latest fads because they're old and don't like change, which is basically what I'm doing about wifom, but seriously, wtf is that?)

Or he wasn't told anything and is telling us that. I'm sure some did, it isn't like they had anything to lose and they knew it. The whole second team scenario is designed to mislead us. He eteþ no ffyssh But heryng red.

Oh lovely. So Pewter was trying to trick Harriet (or whatever his name was), who he must have thought was scum, into confessing, then he would have come forward and revealed it? You know, that isn't a completely terrible plan if you know you're already dead. Well, it was a terrible plan since it didn't work, but I can at least see that some thought was put into it. I don't know where this leaves us, it basically means that nothing we thought we knew is true. Just great.

What if the scum killed the Admiral?

I do outrank you.

I believe we had a date for tonight. Bring the red leather.

Indeed it does, and I wouldn't feel too bad about the teams finding each other because of your post, I'm sure they aren't so stupid that they wouldn't have made a last minute post revealing it anyway for that same purpose. What are the odds that anyone would unvote him now after the hard work has been done? No, whatever scum haven't voted yet will rush to do so to appear to have been right there with us, but we'll know it's one more thing to analyze tomorrow. I wouldn't complain...

The FBI is parked outside your cabin.
