Godric Goaty-Blather

What's this strange Muggle world? Thank you for letting me play, strange people. What's going to happen to this account now that I'm dead? What's going to happen to me?

I can do percentages good too! I'm one hundred percent sure that tomorrow you'll be lynched. Or, since in all of your infinite wisdom you've decided to reveal you have a power role, you'll be killed tonight. Either way, you're an idiot and you're screwing the town over. It's likely too late to rally the base, most people aren't around anymore and there's only ten hours left, so I shall accept being lynched. It's my hope you'll listen to Helena's words and lynch her tomorrow.

I refuse to give up, you cannot allow Helena's apparent Day One grudge to stick into your minds. Here's some alternative solutions: 1) Helena is some sort of paranoid investigator. She investigated Purplonia and found her to be "town" and then investigated me and found me to be "scum". 2) Purplonia has been speaking to Helena since Day One and has probably earned her trust. This, coupled with the fact that Helena does not like me, makes sense that she'd be manipulated. 3) They're both stupid scum looking for a scapegoat (hah, another pun) 4) They're both town trying to save each others skins.

I urge all of you to please reconsider. This is not playing it safe, this is doing exactly what Helena wants: shooting the town in the foot. Please hear my words.

What? So you're saying that there's nine people (the eight voting for Purplonia and Dillpickle) that are scum? Not only is that horriblely unbalanced, it's just plain stupid. I've seen this stupid ploy used so many times: "lynch me if he's town!!", and it always results in the loss of two townies. In this case, one townie (me) because I'm sure that Helena is scum. How do you know for sure that Pink is town? Do you know her alliegence as a scum because you're a scum as well, so you call her an absolute town? You know, if I do get lynched today by the apparently clearvoyent Helena, I do hope you all lynch her tomorrow as she so requests.

I've come back with further thoughts and I have to say my initial list is the best I could come up with. As I stated I had my suspicions about Purplonia before I cast my vote, so it'll stay there.

Unvote: Helena Hippopaw Vote: Purplonia Pink I see no purpose of disrupting a vote against a better suspect, especially one that others are getting behind. As stated in my reasons before, I have a bad vibe about Pink and dividing the vote isn't useful at all.

I'm not hiding anything. I have been totally transparent with everyone. I've been able to admit my mistakes but in my opinion there are those who are much scummier than I. It's a shame that Durmudgelous was killed last night since we were both working together and speaking to each other. It was how I determined that he, like myself, was a vanilla townie. I believe that I've defended myself adequately and since you still find it lackluster, I've no other arguments to use. Therefore, I'll continue to use my defense but I'll also give my opinions on you all. Alright, let me begin with my reads on the situation: ~~~ Ariattny Sugarbottom: I voted for you on Day One as a poke, and while I covered it up by giving the silly reason that it was your counting, it was really just a poke. Based on your reaction I consider you to be a townie. Barkonius Twitch: You make some good points and you're not too hasty to jump on a lynch. You also question the person before blindly jumping on a bandwagon lynch mob. I'm pretty sure you're a townie, however it might just be a ruse you're throwing up. Bartholomew Bearbutt: Like Barkonius, you also make some good points and would rather listen to a defense instead of casting your vote. It's because of this that I believe you're a loyal b]townie[/b] and that you're not a scummy scum. A true scum would have voted me out immediately and jumped on the wagon. Belinda Bugglesby: I can't get a read on you, which isn't particularly good. I'm not sure about you yet, but I'll go back again and make further analysis. At this moment, I give you an Undecided. Dillpickle Catterweed: You're a puzzling one. If I had to guess I'd pin you as a bit scummy, however at the same time you're like the others listed above (besides Belinda). You're willing to wait instead of jumping and thus I think you're maybe a townie. Drubulum Panck: You were a bit rambunctious at the beginning but you've seemed to calm down and now you're all business. What happened? What brought you back to reality? Did someone tell you to knock it off? You're at least also willing to question me (albeit you think I can do more for my defense), which is why I'll classify you as a townie. Firuz Foxtail: You're acting off, which is why it's my opinion that you're likely scum and this is bad. You're not the biggest threat, I'll get to that person later. Gertrude Tincanchew: I talked about you with Durmudgelous and he was highly suspicious of you. I somewhat defended you, because I think you're one of the more experienced players, but now I'm having second doubts. I'll give you an Undecided because Durmudgelous turned up dead after he attacked you both behind the scenes and in thread. Godric Goaty-Blather: You're me. And I know I'm a townie. Helena Hippopaw: You are the biggest threat in my opinion. You make little to no sense sometimes and feel like lynching a person simply because of some strange reason, or you're just a massive nooby scum that's looking for a reason to jump on a vote. When I confronted you about this on Day One you immediately went on the extreme defensive. You're either scum or dumb and whichever you are is dangerous. Therefore, I label you as scum. Langston Lionheart: Can't get much of a read on you either. If I had to guess, I'd list you as scum as well. Looney Lumplove: You're a smart elephant and you question and interview before you cast your vote. You remind me of Barkonius or Dillpickle which is good, however there can't be too many people like that. I'll label you as a townie for now. I'll need to observe some more. Lulu Pittoolu: I'm pretty sure I know your EB handle, but that's neither here nor there. I think you're a townie but if I know you, you're easy at hiding your true intentions. I might be completely wrong about you but either way I'll label you as town. You do seem to follow along with everyone else without putting too much thought into it and just saying "for the same reasons". I think that's very...dare I say it...sheepish behaviour. Nicholas Dickory: I can't say much about you. You've flown under my radar, and while I don't think you're scum, I'd have to reread some more of what you've said in the past. I'll put you down as town, but that's subject to change. Orion Kettleboil: I get a genuine scum vibe off of you and I'm not sure why. Therefore, I'll label you as a scum. I can't quite pinpoint what put you on my radar. Yet. Purplonia Pink: I get a scummy vibe off of you as well and I don't know why. Call it a gut feeling. Straight scum. Rutherford Habblable-Babble: Hmmmmm. I don't know. You provided lots of points as to why to vote for me and I'll unfortunately admit it, they are good reasons. I'll put you down as town. Timly Dimplebop: Undecided, plain and simple. You could be the neutral third party that was listed in the rules. You go from a bit scummy to a bit townie, sometimes in the same post. I'm conflicted. I'll get back to you, I have about 40 hours to reread and think about this, after all. Twatty Tittlesteen: You were also very very outgoing, but suddenly by midway Day One you scaled back dramatically. You became serious business all of a sudden. I don't know why, but I'll mark you as town for now. Before I forget: Vote Helena Hippopaw As I said, either scum or dumb, and while I might fit that profile today because of the stupid things I've done, please keep her in mind if I'm lynched and I flip town. As I said, I've got 40 hours and I'm going to use them to my advantage as I attempt to further come up with some more thoughts. Eh, just to make sure: Vote: Helena Hippopaw Because I forgot the colon.

Thanks for bringing up some points. I'll be happy to answer them. I'd like to think I'm following along. I do know about the lynches and the reasons for them and occasionally, while I agree with others for their reasons on voting for a person, I feel like adding my own reason in addition. I agreed with everything that people said about Wong, so I didn't feel it needed repeating and I wanted to get my own opinion in. At the time the idea of a neutral gladiator made sense in my head. As stated, I felt at the time that that was a good reason in addition to the other reasons that people were voting for Wong. There's no reason to repeat the same thing repeatedly each time someone votes for someone if they agree with what's been said. And yes, I'm sure the scum have a protector. Historically in every mafia game ever the scum have had some form of a protector. I'm pretty sure they can recruit as well, however this I'm not sure of. Continuing, you said that I was speaking with my "scum buddies" thinking he was neutral. I didn't know if he was neutral or scum, but at the time I viewed him as bad news. I stated this yesterday. Again, you can see the above explanation, but I thought it would make some sense if a neutral was given an ability to mess with the vote. In hindsight, I can pick out flaws in my arguments. If we has neutral he wouldn't have revealed that it was him who cast the spell. It made sense to me at the time in my goaty head which is why I stuck with it. As I said, that wasn't my only reason for voting for Wong. I, of course, agreed with the others. I'll be happy to field more questions. If you'll allow me to gather my thoughts I'll list who I find to be on my list of Oder Eaters and why.

I'm genuinely surprised that Wong turned out to be town. I expected him to be scum or at least a neutral party. I'm willing to answer any questions you would like to field towards me to explain my innocence.

I'm going to repeat this once more. I don't know if you're town or not. I'm leaning towards you being scum, which is one reason as to why I'm voting for you. I ceased saying you're a scared townie several posts ago and now I'm convinced that since you're ignoring that post that you're likely scum. Coupled with what others have been saying and I don't really need to list anymore reasons. How do people know you're a "named townie"? Because you said so? Okay, in that case, I'll say I'm a townie too. Everyone tell us whether you're scum or town, because according to Wong we can trust everyone's word. I'm not changing my vote. If you want me to be less noncommittal then I shall be. I think Wong is scum and that is why I'm voting for him. I'm getting less and less convinced that he can use that action repeatedly, otherwise he would have used it by now. Regardless, he did get Snarky voted out yesterday with that action to save his own panda hide. From what I hear around the shop, that's extremely scummy.

His ability to manipulate a vote could be disastrous. What's to stop him from simply rigging the vote every day? It's not like he has to listen to us if he creates a gladiator vote again. He could just keep on manipulating the vote as he wishes, especially if he's allied with the scum or if he's some sort of a neutral. You can bet the scum would want to recruit him and protect him at night. Secondly, I'm not sure if he's a scared townie or not. I might be wrong. He might be the scummiest person in this game or he might be the saintliest townie. Or he might even be completely neutral. We don't know and we will only know if we vote him out. Why are you defending him so vehemently? You yourself voted for him. I'm not changing my vote and I'm sticking by my justification. That role is dangerous and should be removed as quickly as possible. I wouldn't trust him if he said to us that it was a one-shot action.

I'm not exactly sure who to vote for. I've talked with Drumudgelous privately and I've come to a conclusion that he's a vanilla townie. As for Wong Wang, I think he's a scared townie, but I find him upsetting because of the action he has. What if there's a chance that he's able to use the gladiator curse again? We weren't exactly confirmed that it was a one shot action. What if he's able to manipulate the vote every day? Therefore, I: Vote: Wong Wang I've never seen such an action used before so I'm not sure what the precedent is. All I know is that he caused the death of a townie yesterday and he's been odd today.

I'm not sure if you read correctly. I thought that Wong Wang was the scared townie, and I said that because he hastily used a potentially very useful action for his own self-survival (because he was scared of being lynched). It was my understanding that I did yesterday, however I'll explain again that voting for Ariattny was a complete poke and shot in the dark. The fact that you're referencing this again today even though I explained it yesterday after doing it makes me a bit suspicious. I'm on to you, Panck.

I also can't say I'm surprised. I really rather suspected that Snarky was town, mostly because he was thrust into a gladiator competition against a scared townie. I really don't suspect Wong is scum, but I do find him to be extremely unsettling. This is bad. Anyway, while I still find Krup's actions from yesterday as scummy I'll wait until more things happen today until I see how to place my vote.

Unvote: Wong Wang Vote: Snarky Snickerpuss sigh And here I thought Drumudgelous was stupid. This was just a complete waste of a perfectly good action.

Okay. Well, I suppose out of those two I'd have to go for: Vote: Wong Wang

See what's gone and happened now? You never ever give up like this ever. You've completely given up and revealed you have some special wand, which I can only assume means you have a night action, and have now made yourself a target. Well done.

Errr..I'm a bit confused here, Helena. You said you're going to vote for me, then you vote for Mr. Krup? Please explain the sudden turn around and unexplained reason for voting for Durmudgelous.

Unvote: Ariattny Sugarbottom I've decided to unvote you because someone else has piqued my interest. Vote: Durmudgelous Krup If you'd like justification, then basically the largest ping I've received all day was when he just said Ariattny asked about his muggle name, then admitting that he lied about her doing that and made it up. To me, Durmudgelous just attempted to get rid of a player with scummy motives. That's literally a scummy thing to do, to lie like that and try and get Ariattny in trouble. I'm watching you, pal. Actually, you're not my pal anymore.

Exactly, because you can't count. It's called a shot in the dark. You're coming up as suspicious to me, and I don't like it. No, there's been dumber reasons for votes, believe me.

Vote: Ariattny Sugarbottom I don't like you, or your horrible counting skills! Plus, I've heard through the grapevine that only scum can't count.

Stop that! You're not a lion! At least, you don't look like a lion. Maybe I am blind. I don't think I'm blind. Seeius Alloutus! Nope, you still aren't a lion, or a tiger, or a bear. Sorry.

That's two things again! You know, I hear through the grapevine that Odor Eaters can't add... That's just what I've heard though.
