The 7:30 bus was running late.
The thirteen passengers aboard it were annoyed, but they knew there wasn't much getting angry could do about it. Not that the futility stopped a couple of them. Thankfully, the bus stopped at where they all worked at 7:53, and it wasn't yet late enough that they would be late punching in. The lost time was an inconvenience, but ultimately it wouldn't be a threat to their productivity.
The shadow that passed over their bus and temporarily engulfed them all in pitch blackness, however, might further that end a little more.
Each felt a peculiar tingling sensation, and then the shadow passed, leaving the bus to continue its route, almost as if the bus and its driver hadn't even noticed. They quietly conversed amongst themselves to allay the worries that had crept over them.
"Zoinks! Like, what was that?"
"No more than a pathetic Jedi trick, I am sure."
"No. I sensed pure evil in that cloud. Evil Aku would be proud of. Something is wrong."
"Really? I wonder if it was some sort of alien? Maybe it'll come back! I need to talk to it!"
The bus rolled up at the front double doors of their office - the main cartoon headquarters - with little accomplished in the way of calming people down. In retrospect, they should have realized that this was a sign of things to come. They should not have been surprised when they opened those front doors - and a scene of unparalleled panic and chaos lay itself out before them.
Cartoons were running around everywhere around the main foyer, screaming, crying, flailing their arms. At least, those that had arms to flail were doing so. Notable in the mass panic and confusion was that most of the cartoons were missing body parts, some more than others. Initially, the screams were so unintelligible that they couldn't make anything out. The biggest clue they got was when Riley Freeman stumbled by them, shouting "What's with this shit, man? The fuck's goin-" before being cut off because his mouth suddenly vanished. Eventually, however, Nanoha Takamachi found them and led them to an empty office. Once she had shepherded everyone inside, she filled them in.
"It's a major crisis! The responsible ones are called Erasers and they have no compassion whatsoever! They just go around trying to destroy us by erasing us!"
Her next words sent chills up their spines.
"They even possessed some of us to work with them! Our friends have been brainwashed!"
She then ran off, presumably to go on another beam spam rampage, closing the door behind her. The thirteen were left there to think about what they had just learned.
That must have been the shadow from earlier.
Panic spread once more, against the muffled shouts and screams from the building proper. Which of them had been brainwashed?
Was it the fat video game junkie that attached an alien mech to his car?
Was it the stern police sergeant that always spoke in monotone?
Was it the mean-spirited elementary school teacher with an unhealthy obsession with fairies?
Was it the Sith Lord hell-bent on eradicating the Jedi?
Was it the propane-dispensing family man from Arlen?
Was it the stoic samurai from the past?
Was it the noble space cadet toy that could fall with style?
Was it the talking cat with the taste for little yellow birds?
Was it the lazy chain-smoking robot?
Was it the cowardly hippie that could be bought off with food?
Was it the hypochondriac 21-year-old turtle?
Was it the cynical movie reviewer with an olfaction fixation?
Or was it the Japanese high school girl on the lookout for weirdos?
And would they figure the mystery out in time?
Find out after this commercial break!

It is now Day 1. With 13 alive, it takes 7 votes to lynch. Day 1, like all non-LYLO days, lasts 48 hours. If that 48 hours ends without someone hitting 7 votes, the person with the most votes will be lynched. Ties will be broken via sudden death.
Good luck!

Special spectator request! (Actually this applies to players too.) One of the standards of an Anonygame is to have guesses submitted for who is who. I ask you to take this seriously in this game - I have a special interest in the results that I won't expand upon until the game is over (so it isn't a game distraction - players need not worry, it has no bearing on the actual game).

Oh, sure! It figures that there'd be something trying to erase me. I mean, it's not like anything else goes right in my life. It'll probably hurt too, cause it can't just be quick and painless. That'd be too easy, oh no!
Well, at least it'd can't be too hard to find the person behind this. I mean, there's only one of us that wants stuff like this to happen to us. And now it has, so it's gotta be her fault.
##Vote: Haruhi
That's right, I said it! Even if she didn't do it, she wanted it to happen, and that's almost as bad, am I right!

Forgive me, robot. In my haste to end this Aku-driven madness, my impatience led me to the folly of thinking that all robots hear his wicked call, when I know this not to be truth. I must calm my shaken soul to still this weakness within and then truly may the search begin unhindered.
Calm.
Calm...
Yet one bolt of chaos strikes me still. Suzumiya, from my home land may she be, worries me like no other. Sherman and Lightyear, and Hill and Coop may already be at each other's throats in this madness, but this is of little surprise, blind as we are to our situation. The third finger pointed at Shaggy, however, is worrisome, be it in jest yet of potential threat, so soon as it has come.

Hello, welcome to Coming Attractions. I'm your host Jay Sherman.
Tonight we'll be looking at the new Running Man ripoff slash video game action movie Lamer. But first, we'll be having another installment of my series, When Posters Didn't Stink So Much.
On tonight's segment, we look at any game not featuring Haruhi Suzumiya, who clearly has no idea what plot, continuity and puncutation are about. She doesn't seem to care that she makes no sense and is only serving to annoy others. For the love of God people she can't be stopped!
Ahem. Anyway, in summation, I think we can all say- it stinks!

Tho in short, the cathe on Haruhi ith your typical 'third on the wagon is thcum' deal, right?

I have not seen such a hopeless bunch since I last attended a Jedi meeting. It is time to stop your joking and concentrate on the matters at hand. They are grim enough to demand our fullest attention.
##VOTE: Jack
Your suspicion of the young girl seems hardly worthy of acceptance. Your argument is incomplete, your view is limited. Open yourself to the Dark side of the Force. Allow yourself to see things more clearly.
Haruhi Suzumiya's method are unlike those of the Jedi. She provoked thought and continues to provoke reactions. Complete your argument, padawan. Why is Haruhi's vote suspicious?
-
Alright, so I go away for a bit, and that Haruhi person starts talking and... and... dear lord, can't you spell?! All you have to do is not hit the number key when you're writing words! Is that so hard?! Is it?! IS IT?! Those last two posts have just been wastes of space with annoying pictures at the end. But hey, at least you've got something that's almost like a reason. The only other person to have one of those is Jack.
Now Jack... I know a picture's worth a thousand words. But he's giving us freaking walls then. And really, third vote's the charm? Is that what you're thinking? What next? Gonna vote that Shaggy kid for finding out that the Erasers were really Old Man Murphey from the old Mill in a mask? Unless you really think going after the people who bring stuff up is a good way of doing things.
But the one I really don't like is that Sherman guy. And it's not just because the only thing he does is complain. But it's also because he's piling on more votes, but he's got no reason for it. Look at him, he brings in another vote, but the only thing he's yapping about is how she's annoying, and not how she's at least doing something, even if it is a kinda useless and annoying something. So...
Unvote: Haruhi, ##Vote: Sherman
Cause I think he stinks.

man you luesers are boring it's been like a WHOE DAY and like no one posting like anything
son i am disapoint
kk so TOMORROW Iam taking my SECRET CRUSH on a DATE (dont tell anyone) but k-on and me we are gonna do things that are MORE IMPORTANT THAN MAFIERS so i wont be back til liek a few hours b4 deadline
that is kind of lame since i am leading town to awesome in the middle of stuff and i dunno what u all will do without me
nehow i guess Shaggy is too busy toking up to come play mafiers or something, thats pretty f*sking lame, when some1 doesnt show up to SOS-dan meetings i usually execute them (cuz im CUTE)
i wanted to have a lot of votes on him to threaten lynch so that hes forced to actually play and post something meaningful if eh does come play but if he doesnt show at all then lynching him won't help town or something i guess LOL
actually he should eb like modkilled LOLLLL
but i guess i should not leave my vote on him while k-on and me are gonna b doing it!! SO HERE WAS MY BRILLIANT GAMBIT
i think out of the ppl who have been texting then 1 of filburt and sherman might b an alien in disguise so we should liek throw water on them and stuff
but a lot of ppl have said like.... NOTHING.... they fail at life and should become an hero... b/c scum is probably there... kind of toss up for me who right now so this is like a lurker to lurker vote but showing up and then saying nothing is worse then not showing up?? only Yuki can get away with that and thats b/c she's meganekko moe and does what i tell her to.

Hey, HEY! Aren't you listening to me?! TALKING. TOY. HERE.
Nevermind, I guess no one was clever enough to notice it. Hmph. ##Unvote: Buzz Lightyear.
Miss Suzumiya, I very well know that you and me are in the quest for those FAIRY GODPARENTS. But take in account that me and only me will get them, alright? I need those for my New World Order. You can keep the other strange creatures that may appear, though.
On another note... Mr. Dooku, I'm using my magic detector and it detected a fault in your so-called "Force" and "Dark Side" and blah blah. If you possesed such magic -which it would be possible with the power of the FAIRY GODPARENTS-, then why didn't you "detect" a possible faulty and evil presence on Mr. Sherman for being the last one who pointed Miss Suzumiya, and you "detected" it on Mr. Jack? Mr. Turtle here pointed it, why didn't you? Huh, HUH?!
That can only be explained if you actually are BRAINWASHED by the FAIRY GODPARENTS. I mean... the ERASERS.

God, can't believe I'm agreeing with Miss Ritalin here, but seriously. Where is everyone? We've got Erasers trying to get rid of us and none of you can talk?!
Also, you, spaceman. What's up with you? You just come in here telling us that you'll decide what's important, and then you vote for Haruhi. Seems a lot like Eraser talk to me, just wanting us to listen up while you tell us how to vote like good little soldiers. So, how's about you tell us just what is important, huh? And why that means you gotta vote for one of the people who're actually out here talking, cause the whole thing looks fishy to me.
-
That my words did not reach several of you (Dooku, Filburt, Sylvester(?)) is most unfortunate. Suzumiya's third vote for Shaggy was in entirely in jest, while being fully aware, no, placing it because two votes had gone before it, making him a liable early target for no reason. For how can you claim it to be in the greater good of 'promoting discussion' when the subject of discussion has been entirely absent? A weak line of logic on my part, I must confess, but I stand by it as the best available at the time.
Suzumiya on 4 votes
(http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/8646/719s.jpg)
My own vote aside, three votes have now gone down behind which I can find no justification outside of jest or irritation. While Suzumiya continues to prove a considerable trial for my ears, I can at least find some merit in condensing down her speech, and though she may rub me the wrong way, there are far too many dangerous elements to consider elsewhere.
##Unvote: Haruhi Suzumiya
##Vote: Buzz Lightyear
The Disappearance Of Haruhi Suzumiya until the eve of our destined time is of minor concern, but the spaceman's hollow vote for a target he is fully aware is unable to defend herself is underhanded. Had he the will to convince me of his convictions I would feel otherwise, but not with such a simple shot to the back.
In fact, clearly have I yet to still my soul, as with so little action in so much time I am seeing the shadow of Aku behind almost everyone. Only Shaggy, currently beyond our realm, Dooku and... yes, Suzumiya do not immediately concern me (perhaps that an avatar of evil, a coward and the incarnation of irritation do not cause worry should be a clear sign that my senses are disturbed, but let us leave that aside).
Filburt is mostly fine... yet his latest speech leads me to worry over the strength of his attack on the spaceman while leaving his vote on Sherman. Perhaps simply our eyes weigh them differently, but I struggle to see the viewpoint.
Crocker worries me most of those with serious content. While I do not see eye to eye with such a wicked person as Dooku, I can at least see merit in the line of discussion, with there being an obviously serious intent behind my reasoning, so I dislike that as an avenue to follow at the exclusion of all others. Instinct would see me finding fault with failing to respond to Suzumiya's vote, but it is hard to determine what to say to a vote chosen randomly from several people (assuming I parsed that correctly). That the vote charged
Coop, Cosgrove, Sylvester and Bender have yet to truly take part at all.
Hill and Sherman are perhaps worse, having contributed nothing but with a serious (yet hollow) accusation in place. Still better than the spaceman by a factor of timing if nothing else.
In short I lend my voice to the call for greater participation, for how may we corner the forces of evil when so many present look the same?
-
Even robots have to sleep, ya know? I'd have came earlier, but my alcohol circuits were running dry. Sorry for missing the earliest pimpmobile to the occassion.
Shaggy has been poked for inactivity. Should this persist the modkill axe will be dropped.
With that in mind, ##UNVOTE:Shaggy
Haruhi might be contributing alot, but I can't actually read what in hell it is that they are writing. I mean, hell, I thought french was a dead language, ya know?
Going to re-iterate what Jack says at the end of his post, and shout for more... content? Speech? BOOZE?
In my view, Crocker and Haruhi are having an arguement, which is one-sided since I can basically only read one arguement without my eyes spontaneously exploding (lucky I have spares) and Buzz seems suspicious for trying to force town to do stuff? I don't know. Holding my vote for now.
As a side-note, its not too much to ask haruhi to like, you know, speak normally?

Gee Jack, you sure seem eagre to have me dance my vote around. If you must know, I'm not moving my vote because unlike some people I'm gonna be waiting right here, ready to move it if I have to. That, and I'd like to actually hear something from that Sherman guy before I drop him for some plastic floozy.
And I'd love to have something else to say, but no one's talking. I mean, Bender's here, but his big thing is not voting, which is annoying and all cause his not voting threatens my neck, but he's nowhere near as bad as those two. Hey, metal man, while you're here, why not pick one of those guys you'd don't like and, I dunno, VOTE THEM!
-
Okay, let'th take a look at thith.
Firtht, now that he'th been prodded, ##Unvote: Shaggy. Better thingth to do than poke at inactiveth.
Haruhi ith bathically trolling the thread. In particular, it annoyth me how she thticks a vote on Mithter Crocker thith late into the day without any thort of reathoning, and immediately claimth that she'th away for the retht of the day.
Count Dooku'th vote on Jack is thtrange. 'Third on a wagon ith likely thcum' is admittedly a poor thtrategy, but on Day 1 it'th not like you've got much elth to work with.
Also flaring up my feline intuition is the little thpaceman. Yeth, he'th voting Haruhi, but he'th really not giving much reathoning ath to why he'th doing it. Conthidering there'th leth than 24 hourth in the phathe, voteth with no ecthplanation are pretty poor.
Theveral people thtill haven't pothted enough to really comment on. Coop, Hank, Cothgrove and Dooku are the nameth that come to mind.
For now, ##Vote: Haruhi Thuzumiya. Embrathing your inner child ithn't helping Town in the thlightetht.
-
I apologize for my absence. Now then. Shall we get back to work?
##Unvote Haruhi Suzumiya
As much as the girl's an earful, she is at the very least contributing. However, the little one and the animals worry me.
The turtle, as Mr. Jack here has already so kindly pointed out, seemed to make a large case of Mr. Lightyear's actions. But why would he attack somebody with such conviction and yet leave his vote on Mr. Sherman? And then he comes back and demands the robot vote, while at the same time attempting to buy time for himself. "That, and I'd like to actually hear something from that Sherman guy before I drop him for some plastic floozy?" Wouldn't one normally hold a vote because the person hasn't said anything recently? I say you put a vote where your mouth is!
Mr. Lightyear over here seemed to leap at the possibility of lynching the girl. And what was his reasoning? That she had a date? Also, what's all this talk about "the future of the universe?" I tell you what! Sounds to me like someone knows more than they're letting on.
##Vote Buzz Lightyear
Going on a date is a poor excuse to hang someone from the ceiling, Mr. Lightyear.

Don't be a meanie head.
Hey, Samurai kid. You seem a little jumpy. I don't think we'd get anywhere if we kept putting down people who bring others halfway to the most needed most votes. Nothing personal, kid, but it limits information.
Don't talk to me about importance! Because of *you*, the future of this entire universe is in jeopardy!
This doesn't look good. You're a superhero, right kid? This doesn't seem very ... superheroy. I'd say this almost looks unsuperhero-like. I should know. I'm good friends with a superhero.
Cute little girls go on dates all of the time. Your vote looks like it's only for the reason that she'll be gone, but it's not clear how that means she's an eraser. This is a worse reason than that errm ... what do you call it? "Third to vote" Reason from before? At least that has basis as a phenomenon.

DESHOU! its too weird for buzz to be all lolvote liek that, even a baka like k-on would kno that that is gonna get u lynched so i dunno if scum would do it. but if Futa Cocker is scum then it makes a lot of sense 4 hir ppl to ignore that and jump on buzz amirite?!! (retorical question ya i am always right)[/size]

Certainly Miss Suzumiya has created some stir, hm? She should learn one or two things about me in paranormal investigation, keeping it down, stealthily, and then run and catch those FAIRY GODPARENTS.
And I finally appreciate that all of you have noticed that talking toy. I certainly find weird how can a toy talk like a human -FAIRIES... or ERASERS- and given that he jumped for Miss Suzumiya's neck, I guess he wants to put an end to her current madness, which could also be explained via the ERASER theory. However, I'm certainly finding Mr. Dooku weird to put a vote on Jack, who was the second person voting Miss Suzumiya, and not Mr. Hill or Mr. Sherman. I'd also like to know his opinion about this Talking Toy incident.
On that note, my magic detector is still giving me "False" signs, Mr. Dooku. I'm still demanding an explanation for that! I'd have to agree with Mr. Turtle on vote moving as well.
Also, the disappearance of a guy is certainly misterious. Shaggy must have been vanished by someone who used the FAIRY GODPARENTS powers. Someone needs to find one of them and make him come back.
-
Hey, Crocker, you actually got any opinions of your own, or are you just picking people to like so that maybe they'll like you back? Honestly, I wasn't sure if that crazy chick was on to anything with you when she started, but you're starting to creep me out here. I mean, all you really said was that Dooku's weird for not using vote order as a measure for voting and that you still think that way.
Well, that and about how you think the spaceman's wierd because... he's a toy? Look around buddy, you're talking about fairies and I'm a freaking Turtle. Y'know what, I'm starting to think crazy chick's right. I mean, let's look at Sherman. Sure, he stinks, but he's at least only said nothing once. As for spaceman over there, that's just bad play. Town? Eraser? Does it make sense for either of them to do it? That's why I asked him the freaking question, so we'd know why he was doing it, so we could tell if it was some kind of evil Eraser reasoning. But, Crocker just... keeps on talking and not saying anything, so here goes.
##Unvote: Sherman, ##Vote: Crocker
Maybe now you can talk about something besides toys and fairies. Or even just tell us why having reasons besides vote order is so dastardly.
-
However, I'm certainly finding Mr. Dooku weird to put a vote on Jack, who was the second person voting Miss Suzumiya, and not Mr. Hill or Mr. Sherman. I'd also like to know his opinion about this Talking Toy incident.
My focus is on the one who expresses immediate worry over Suzumiya's actions, when there was little going on yet. Suzumiya took action and pursued a path that she may have believed to be correct. To denounce such actions as worrisome feels like the Jedi approach to any movement. The Jedi are idle, with only want to maintain their corrupt status quo.
I demand answers still, padawan Jack. Why was Suzumiya suspicious that she deserves our votes? What course of action would have better befit her? Remaining idle and attacking the first one to stir is cowardly. Such an act is beyond even the Jedi- the Erasers are a people unknown to the Force. Only they could attempt to attack so cowardly.
On that note, my magic detector is still giving me "False" signs, Mr. Dooku. I'm still demanding an explanation for that!
Your impatience does not move me to return any faster than I can. Your argument is that I did not vote for who you believe to be more suspicious? Such foolish reasoning. The samurai was the first man to pursue Suzumiya in serious light, claiming her suspicious. I will focus on those who lead, not on those who follow foolishly- you must focus on your foes one by one, and not attempt to take on all you can all at once.
The Toy has sufficient pressure on him. I shall await him to explain himself.

Okay, I mithed your ecthplanation for the vote on Crocker. Come on, thpeak English a little better for uth, like what I do. ##Unvote

Tho, you're willin' to admit that he'th playin' badly, but the mithtake ithn't thcummy? How ith makin' a vote with no reathoning anythin' other than anti-Town play?
Heck, can ya ecthplain to me any way thith could come acroth ath even a mithguided Townie? ##Vote: Buzz Lightyear

Zoinks! This game moves as fast as a ice cream burrito around Scoob...Scoob? Scooby Doo, where are you?
Oh. It looks like I'm trapped here. All alone, and with a bunch of scary scum. Wait, I have an idea. Maybe if I...oh come on that mask's not even obvious, of course it's Haruhi? I mean look at how she talks! That's clearly scum talk! What are you all giving her a clear for?
Seems like this game's a bit weirder than I thought.

Yo, sorry for the inactivity, I caught the Glorft trying to cause trouble in the confusion of this Eraser business so I went on a temporary Glorft smashing spree.
I don't know why people are voting on that Suzumiya person, I mean she's just a little Japanese girl.
What has my senses tingling most right now is that little action figure, who tries to off the little girl without giving any reason of his own. He also hasn't said anything of consequence at all in the game so far.
There is also the fact that the last time I ran into something so small that could talk I ended up having to forgo getting a slurpee for a whole day almost, I am not inclined to let history repeat itself!

Suzumiya took action and pursued a path that she may have believed to be correct. To denounce such actions as worrisome feels like the Jedi approach to any movement. The Jedi are idle, with only want to maintain their corrupt status quo.
You misrepresent the situation most unfairly, evil one. While far more may be said of her now, her first vote was of in pure jest - of no action and stepping down no path - yet threatened (not) much. To call such a frivolity positive is folly, from which I find myself simply repeating what I have already said.
Your inquiry seemed like good sport to begin with, but now I fear that you have let it become an issue to exclude all others, as you have made only a passing reference to Lightyear outside of this scope, and that reference itself has brought me to ponder, as it strikes as a delaying tactic to justify a future swap, as your current opinion is merely implied.
Cosgrove: more worried was I that the other votes in question were so shallow, but on recalling the order of discussion, it was not until after the third vote fell that Suzumiya broke the boundary of mere irritation, which would indirectly shine better on Sherman... if he had returned since then.
Shaggy: it is a blessing indeed that we have found you in time, but it would be false for you to assume that you have free passage to the next round of discussion. I urge you to find the courage to speak your mind, as you have yet to do so.
With the destined time fast approaching I fear that we have still yet to make much progress, and I must now leave to defeat a horde of rampaging robotic vikings, leaving precious little time indeed. So:
Of those with votes, I would currently only lend my weight to that against Lightyear - as much as the complete lack of defence is perplexing - Crocker, for his narrow vision on an issue I cannot support (even if it is against an avatar of evil), and the avatar of evil Dooku himself has managed to leap up the list for similar reasons. By my return, however, a vote change may depend considerably on whether my eyes can discern anyone who has said much but still offered little, or has spoken little but offered even less. There are unfortunately several that this could yet apply to.

Right, whose got stuck on crazy girl to English duty again? Man, Rocko never gets stuck with stuff like this.

(retorical question ya i am always right)
Translation: Oh no, is it not astounding that people are all jumping on Buzz. I think Crocker is scum, but people aren't really talking about him, but everyone wants to talk about Buzz. But, even an idiot Scum would know that posting like that would get them lynched, so he's probably not Scum. So, there's almost certainly scum in the people who ignore Crocker but vote Buzz.

Also, I totally planned for this to happen, because I am awesome.
Alright, so it's not the best of material, and she seems a little undecided on you. But it's there. But you, you just have a joke vote, a vote on her for no reason, and then you come back and say she never contributed anything. Since you're here, I'd like to ask why shouldn't I think you're Eraser scum? Also, since there's just two hours left, and no one else has more than two votes, you might want to think about final words, Spaceman.

I tell you what, Mr. Lightyear! Here are some things she said before you even voted her.
i wanted to have a lot of votes on him to threaten lynch so that hes forced to actually play and post something meaningful if eh does come play but if he doesnt show at all then lynching him won't help town or something i guess LOL
actually he should eb like modkilled LOLLLL
but i guess i should not leave my vote on him while k-on and me are gonna b doing it!! SO HERE WAS MY BRILLIANT GAMBIT
i think out of the ppl who have been texting then 1 of filburt and sherman might b an alien in disguise so we should liek throw water on them and stuff
but a lot of ppl have said like.... NOTHING.... they fail at life and should become an hero... b/c scum is probably there... kind of toss up for me who right now so this is like a lurker to lurker vote but showing up and then saying nothing is worse then not showing up??
o hai
lolwut
Hahaha oh wow!
just wanted 2 say thx for justifying my vote, thats pretty weak, y would he not vote the 1st person 2 use bad logic over the 2nd?? Show up right after i call you out and thats all you got?
Now are you going to explain yourself, or what? And a roleclaim does not defend your voting record. Don't make me kick your ass!
Also, the cat seems to be jumping onto bandwagons left, right, and center. First, a jokevote on the boy here. Then, as the he becomes popular, the cat leaves its vote where it is (http://www.rpgdl.com/forums/index.php?topic=3895.msg74914#msg74914). Next, (http://www.rpgdl.com/forums/index.php?topic=3895.msg75116#msg75116) it puts a vote down on the girl, who has replaced the boy in fame. And its final vote? Well, that one has landed on Mr. Lightyear (http://www.rpgdl.com/forums/index.php?topic=3895.msg75152#msg75152). Aside from that, it has one post that says... what, exactly? That the boy needs to speak again? This wagon hopping is most alarming, if you ask me.

I mean, let's look at Sherman. Sure, he stinks, but he's at least only said nothing once. As for spaceman over there, that's just bad play.
How can you be sure that it was bad play and not an ERASER movement? Moreover, I think he didn't respond to your question very well, or that's how I'm seeing it in my eyes.
And I was looking at Dooko because I'd very well see Mr. Sherman or Mr. Hill jumping for a quick bandwagon on Miss Suzumiya given her current madness. However, his reasoning was more of his current "wise" attitude and reasoning, also known as... "playstyle". Enough reason for me to ##Unvote.
Shaggy here isn't helping much as well. And no, I won't lend him my magic detector. I hope you aren't hoping to scurry around with your hopes to erase us.
Talking Toy, or... Mr. Lightyear, it seems really strange not to put up something clever and think of something. It seems the only reason to point Miss Suzumiya is for her current madness, and claiming vigilante makes it look suspicious as well for us to "lose a valuable member".
I'd also like to know Miss Suzumiya's thoughts about Mr. Sherman. According to Turtle's translation, she says she finds Hank and Coop quiet. What about Mr. Sherman who put up a vote with pretty much the same reasoning as Mr.Hill and Mr. Jack? ##Vote: Haruhi Suzumiya.
I may need to build a translator for her... or maybe force the Turtle to do it.
-
It seems the only reason to point Miss Suzumiya is for her current madness, and claiming vigilante makes it look suspicious as well for us to "lose a valuable member".
Madness is not an attribute inherent to her being. She's putting it on intentionally; walls of unreadable text? This does not help town. This is how Emporer Zurg's minions hide amongst us, in order to fool us all.
She is an enemy of Star Command that will continue to create confusion and smokescreens throughout the mission.
Right now, poised at the edge of the galaxy, Emperor Zurg has been secretly building a weapon with the destructive capacity to annihilate an entire planet! I alone have information that reveals this weapon's only weakness.*

Then we must agree to disagree, Suzumiya, unless your plan was inherently to take the initial flak for it, and even then I dislike the tactic.
The vote stands with Lightyear on 5, Suzumiya on 3 and Crocker on 2. I certainly rule myself out from moving to Suzumiya, and whereas I could move to Crocker, Buzz has given far more reason to doubt than he has. There are depressingly still multiple people who have said next to nothing - at least Shaggy, Bender and Sherman come to mind, and Dooku sort of - but that in turn makes it a random guess, though I could have been convinced.
The vig claim does make me stumble and doubt myself, I'll admit that. But framing this around a poor defence otherwise, a poor attack on Suzumiya and then a 'resignation' post where you... suddenly think other people are more suspicious? That's like the wrong order to do these things in to boot (scrapping the resigned tone).

"Hey, where does that door go?"
Attention was drawn to a side door leading out of the previously empty office to elsewhere in the building. Opening it revealed several back hallways, before coming across a large darker room that would have passed for janitorial storage if not for the vat of bubbling goo in the center.
"I know what that is! I recognize that stuff from Who Framed Roger Rabbit? (which was terrible, by the way)! That's Dip! It destroys cartoons! We could use it to get rid of those of us possessed by the Erasers!"
The viscous liquid certainly didn't look very friendly, but people shuffled their feet, anxious at the potential danger of this new weapon.
Buzz Lightyear finally stepped forward.
"A dangerous foreign substance? Star Command would no doubt want me to investigate this. Stand back, civilians, while I run an aerial scan."
Buzz clambered up several shelves and boxes of various floor cleaners before he was several feet above the top of the vat of Dip. He readied his scanner and jumped.
"To infinity - and beyond!"
Unfortunately for Buzz, he had forgotten that his scanner was just a sticker, and thus was useless.
Even more unfortunately, he forgot that he couldn't actually fly.
---
Buzz Lightyear (Town Single-Shot Nightvig) fell to his doom with style!
It is now Night 1. Please send him night actions.
-
Most of the remaining cartoons backed away from the depressing sight of Buzz's demise. One, however, was quite curious, even eager, to investigate further.
Haruhi got up close to the vat of bubbling Dip and peered into it.
"Wow, that stuff works fast! Wonder what's in it? Besides the spaceman toy, of course. I wonder if I could get Mikuru to eat of some this."
Haruhi was so busy motormouthing about her latest plans for Mikuru involving the liquid death in front of her that she didn't even notice she was missing an arm until she tried to raise it up to waggle her index finger.
A collective gasp could be heard from the rest of the crown. Haruhi, however, seemed completely unfazed by the sudden lack of anything attached to her shoulder. In fact, after staring at the empty space for a few moments, she grinned.
"The Erasers must be trying to send me a message! I bet they want to talk to me! I have to go find them!"
Without so much as a good-bye, the teenager dashed back out the door, calling messages to her new-found "friends".

Okay, let'th take a better look at thith.
Firtht off, Buzz mithrepped me in hith latht potht.
Sylvester hangs back and makes comments about Haruhi, and then voted me when I had those opinions.
I already ecthplained that I couldn't make out Haruhi'th reathonin' for her vote cauth she thpoke tho terribly. And if I'd theen Buzz have an opinion on Haruhi rather than thaying nothing about it, I'd have been leth inclined to thtick my vote on him. He ecthplained himthelf after I'd left for the day.
It'th difficult to chooth a perthon in particular to vote, mainly becauth there'th pretty much no talkin' goin' on. Shaggy'th thill totally uthless, but Bender vanishing for the thecond half of the day doethn't help either. I don't theem to remember Thargeant Cothgrove thaying anything utheful other than jumpin' on the Buzz wagon, either.
Also, the cat seems to be jumping onto bandwagons left, right, and center. First, a jokevote on the boy here. Then, as the he becomes popular, the cat leaves its vote where it is. Next, it puts a vote down on the girl, who has replaced the boy in fame. And its final vote? Well, that one has landed on Mr. Lightyear. Aside from that, it has one post that says... what, exactly? That the boy needs to speak again? This wagon hopping is most alarming, if you ask me.
- Given that Shaggy had yet ta post, and the only other cathe at the time was the 'third on the wagon' one, I thought it wouldn't hurt to put a little pressure on the potenthial lurker.
- Already ecthplained that I couldn't make our her reathoning for all of her thpam.
Wanna thee thome people talkin' before I lay a vote down.

Right, there's a picture of Jack. That's going to have to suffice for roleplaying for this post, as I doubt I can make Jack sound nearly as blunt as this. Not that I have anything against continued roleplaying, and will try more myself after this post.
First and foremost - Bender, Shaggy, and Sherman, you guys have got to start playing the game. You guys easily top my nuke list as things are, but when you've all been quite such non-entities you reduce me (and others) to an almost random choice between you (okay, you've been absent in different ways so it's not entirely arbitrary, but come on), and unless you're all scum then this is horrible for town.
(I love you guys really, please come and play <3)
This applies in varying lesser shades to several others. Coop's practically in the same boat with only one actual post (less actual content than Bender, but without the vote withholding), I read a little more from Cosgrove but don't like the "I have nothing to say" post (as much as I appreciate the sentiment), and Dooku still causes me active concern for tunneling one event and what looks like setting up a vote swap (to a now confirmed townie, as much as I did lead and stand by that train myself).
Filburt I'm picking up neutral. Slightly town in general, but eyebrows raised for the maneuvering around Buzz.
The lack of an explanation for his vote for Haruhi aside, Hank reads about the same.
Also happy enough with Sylvester for now. I don't see his vote record in the same way that Hank does.
Crocker turns my guts. Most lately, he pulled out his teeth from Dooku's ankle rather tamely in the end, which I dislike but wouldn't think much of, but then voted for Haruhi because... uh... she didn't comment on Sherman? Admittedly wasn't on the Buzz train, but that was already way out in front so really didn't need to be. Not sure why scumCrocker would support the Buzz train without actually being on it, admittedly, as it's not like that would help him.
(hindsight aside, I stand by my position to stick with Buzz over him yesterday even given this as Buzz's play was far more startling with every post)
##Prod: Lurkers
##Vote: Mr. Crocker
Case of substance > pot luck with the lurkers, so long as the lurking ends real soon.

The Sith prefer that the roleplaying will not interfere with the readability of the posts.
Regarding Jack from the previous day: I retract my judgment of him. His attempt to strike at Suzumiya for her following the common tradition of Day 1 Mafia led me to doubt him, but I see now that there is reason to withhold such judgment of him.
We of the Sith are unable to determine whether we trust Sylvester's idling. We acknowledge, however, that he could also have lurked until everyone had posted, and so find no fault in it yet. Do not mistake these words for idle chatter. Our eyes are still on him, as he is as likely a candidate to be an Eraser as the next person.
##VOTE: Sgt Cosgrove
I have judged this man suspicious. His presence at day 1 has been lackluster. He revealed his presence briefly, to conclude only that he could lend no assistance to the discussion in any way. His vote on Lightyear is nothing but an easy stance to the Sith. In the end, we believe there was enough for him to lend his opinion on, and would urge him to do so after all. Lightyear was not Day 1's sole option for a lynch.
-
Hmph. Bubbling Dip. This must be the work of FAIRY GODPARENTS. OR ERASERS.
Mr. Jack, unfortunately, Miss Suzumiya's "trip to the dip" has left my question unanswered, as I firmly believe that there must be someone suspicious around her early bandwagon, as my Eraser Detector v1.0 says so. Come on, four people jumping on her basing solely on her madness, basically nothing at all? That's why I asked Mr. Dark Side why you Mr. Jack and why not Mr. Hill or Mr. Sherman. His answer was more related to who finds more suspicious to him, based on his "Dark Side" powers. Like now, that, out of all the lurking people, he finds Cosgrove more suspicious.
I'd like to know more about the jumpers there, specifically the later ones. But more people needs to contribute. My detector needs more input data.

*Blatantly ignoring his role in the lynch of Suzumiya much in the same way he ignores the destruction he always causes as a result of saving Jersey*
So like, here we are all trying to find the bad guys, most of us sticking our necks on the line with what we say, and then I noticed this shaggy guy hiding in a corner.
All he did day one is hide in a corner all day, and when prodded all he did was say go look at the Suzumiya person, who we know is town, without actually giving a legitimate reason, and has done nothing but hide in his corner ever since. He didn't even place a vote!
The best way to beat the bad guys is to blindly give it your all! Not run away in fear! This must be a ploy!
##Vote: Shaggy

I get back here and what's happened? Two of us gone to those Erasers, that's what! And worse yet, I see Crocker's still talking about nothing. Then again, all we've got is nothing going on because no one's talking, so maybe nothing's a good thing to talk about. Man, when's Sienfeld gonna show up, cause this is his kind of place.
The worst thing is, the only people who've really talked so far are the people who were talking Day 1 too, so the people we don't know anything about... we still don't know anything about. Which means we may as well just draw straws or toss some dice or something. Though, we know they're reading, so maybe if we got enough votes on them they'd start talking like spaceman there did. Then again, who was really ready to believe him when all his talk was just a last ditch effort to save himself?
Sadly, not gonna happen. At least, not from me. While not a lot of people are talking, those who are talking are saying a lot. Like Crocker, who decides to grill Dooku by talking to... Jack? And demands that more people give input on what he thinks is important but not look it up himself? But, bad as he is, he's got nothing on our friend Coop.
I mean, really. I can get behind a Shaggy vote. Damned hippy's got it coming, after all. But he's not the only one to disappear (Why hello, Bender, Shermin) so what's so big about him? His only thing is his nothing post is late in the day while the other two had theirs early in the day. So, all of that last post? Was a whole lot of nothing. I mean, he even responded to a prod. Shermin and Bender sure didn't. And there's nothing there on anyone who has said anything. No insight, no thought, nothing we couldn't figure out by using our freaking eyes! Heck, nothing that couldn't even have been said Day 1 before the flips, outside of the knowledge that Haruhi is town.
However, what really gets to me, is that part where you decide to ignore your role in Haruhi's death. Got something on your mind you want to share with us, Mech Boy?

Your point may hold a little weight, Crocker, but explains not why you ended up voting for Suzumiya, that which I drew attention to.
I assume Coop refers not to the most wicked killing of Suzumiya, but to the lynching of Lightyear, of which he took part.
As much as I see the game of chance with those most silent has already begun, more worrisome to me is the act of sitting in wait with their votes. Progress for our quest has been delayed much already.

Err, out of character to correct myself. Meant to say ignores Lightyear.
The first sentence was basically just flavor text, Coop in his show usually ends up destroying most of Jersey City or whatever other location he's at in the process of saving whatever needs to be saved. Usually at the end of the show he won't acknowledge that he was the one that caused most of it, the flavor sentence was mostly in reference to that.
Random in character reason to keep voting on Shaggy:

In RETROSPECTIVE, I should've asked them directly myself as well, like Mr. Turtle did. Although... he still didn't give an answer. Hmph.
Also, Mr. Turtle, aren't you voting on the same reasons as me, asking for questions about something from someone, like Mr. Mecha?
Hopefully we'll have something from Shaggy.
Mr. Cosgrove / Mr. Hill / Mr. Sherman must use some of the FAIRY GODPARENTS POOF powers to appear here.

I apologize for my absence, folks. I had a job to do. Which reminds me... Would any of you fellows like to buy some propane and/or propane accessories?
Now, about those darn Eraser fellows. I, personally, believe Mr. Jack to be quite correct about Mr. Crocker. I also find it rather hard to get anything of substance from Mr. Crocker, as everything he says seems to run circles around itself. Also, his reasoning seems most strange to me. Let's take a quick look at his vote count, shall we? First, he votes Mr. Lightyear because, well, heck. He was a talking toy. Second, he votes for Mr. Dooku over here because he took a different approach to questioning the train on the girl? An approach, might I add, that was far more successful than the turtle's. His final vote lands on the girl, for the sole reason of finding out why she didn't comment on Mr. Sherman. I would also like to point out that, in the very same post (http://www.rpgdl.com/forums/index.php?topic=3895.msg75199#msg75199), he claims heavy suspicion on the late Mr. Lightyear, and yet never votes for him. This man forgoes any semblance of a case purely for pressure purposes, and then says nothing for the rest of the day.

In conclusion...
##Vote Mr. Crock

(http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/8105/2230s.jpg)
So we're what, 13 hours away from the deadline and only 7 votes down? 5 if we assume the Shaggy votes don't exist? (if true, resetting Coop and DelBender's contribution today). Nearly 3/4s of the day taking up less than a page even with 7 mod posts? This negative cycle of inaction is getting silly, guys.
I count Sherman as being gone for over 60 consecutive hours of daytime now. Can we get an actual ultimatum on this? That has got to be a record of sorts. Likewise Cosgrove's approaching 40 hours, and that's counting from the "I've got nothing" post.
neoShaggy: I appreciate your presence and accept it may take a bit for you to catch up, but I really want to see something substantial from you by the end of the day. Replacements get it too easy as it is, and we can't even judge you by the actions of your predecessor, so I don't want this to translate into a completely free pass to day 3.
Crocker: I understand the concept of a pressure vote to get answers, but it's possible to just, you know, ask questions, especially when it doesn't look like you thought Suzumiya was particularly scummy at the time. How about today? You still don't have a vote down. It's a shame that there's been much less contribution than would be nice, but given the state of play who actually looks bad to you? Anyone active/semi-active look worse than the lurkers, or is there a particular lurker standing out from the rest?
Hill: Nice to see you over here on Crocker and all, but you were digging at Sylvester the last time we saw you. I take it that opinion has changed, or is it just that Crocker has eclipsed him at the top of your list?
-
No time for roleplay right now.
Jack's right. This inactivity is ridiculous. We need people to start getting more active (I'm going to attempt that myself) or else this is just going to be a bunch of random guesses. And that's no good.
As for your question, Jack, I looked back at the context of Sylvester's vote record and it made far more sense than it did the first time, which eased my worries. So for now, Sylvester != scum.
Come on people. We need activity. Cosgrove, Coop, Bender, neoShaggy (a little more forgivable than the others, but still), Sherman, Filburt, etc. Let's get in the game.
-
I count Sherman as being gone for over 60 consecutive hours of daytime now. Can we get an actual ultimatum on this? That has got to be a record of sorts.
Yeah, I think so.
Jay Sherman has been modkilled due to inactivity! Flip will come at the end of the day.
I'm not doing this for Cosgrove because I don't know if he's actually been around or not. I do know that Sherman has been around both before and after the multiple prods I sent him, and I can only guess at this point that he's actively ignoring them.

I think my vote on Shaggy will stand for now. Posted... nothing about 9 hours ago, saying basically that he needs to catch up, then leaves? It doesnt take 9 hours to catch up with the game. Hell, it doesnt take 2 hours, with all the inactives.
-
Well I guess I'll forgo the role playing for this post.
Right now I'm pretty content to keep my vote on the neo shaggy, he hasn't actually contributed anything yet other then "I'm here to replace the old shaggy," and I still find the one post the old Shaggy made to be rather suspicious.
I don't really think the people who are actively posting are scum, seeing as they're the ones who are sticking their heads out in this game of lurkers.
Honestly not sure who else I would buy arguments for atm, it seems like we were picking at each other more due to posting in the style of our characters then anything, it's gotten a bit better, but honestly so little has been said it's hard to get a read on anything.
Ninja'd
Pretty much agreeing with Bender there.
-
Well then. It looks like this is most likely between the boy Mr. Crocker. Though I don't quite see why people are preferring potential lurking over a real case.
Mr. Robot, could you please explain to me why you persist in accusing the boy, even though you have called people out at least once (http://www.rpgdl.com/forums/index.php?topic=3895.msg75354#msg75354)? You seemed pretty accusing of Mr. Dooku there, and yet persisted in voting the boy. Why!?
And you, Mr. Coop. What do you think of the less inactive people? Like the turtle and Mr. Dooku.
Ugha. If people don't start posting more or buying some propane and propane accessories, I'm gonna have to start kicking some ass!
-
(I apologize if my RP falls flat halfway through the post. I had to rush four different day 1 ISOs after finally making it back.)
I have judged this man suspicious. His presence at day 1 has been lackluster. He revealed his presence briefly, to conclude only that he could lend no assistance to the discussion in any way. His vote on Lightyear is nothing but an easy stance to the Sith. In the end, we believe there was enough for him to lend his opinion on, and would urge him to do so after all. Lightyear was not Day 1's sole option for a lynch.
My mind was blurry yesterday. I work better with facts than I do guesses, kiddo. And according to the last votecount, the only other bandwagons were the Big fat meanie head, and the guy with the big fat head. I didn't want to vote either of them then.
There's plenty of evidence to go around now. Surveillance Report:
Jack
He first jumps on the meanie head for voting third, which seems a little jumpy to me. I don't think being bringing someway half to lynch is something you should worry about, kid. He then jumps onto the toy for a reason that looks almost like that one. It was combined with the bad reasoning, but he still put a tone on the number of votes. I will admit, he's got conviction at the end. I think that outweighs the bad things I see.
Hank Hill
Does the exact same thing as Jack in his second vote. Jumps on the Buzz vote for pretty much the same reason as anyone else. He then blames the cat for bandwagon hopping on the Scaredy-cat, the Meanie head, and the toy. I don't really see how the Scaredy-cat became a bandwagon, since the bandwagon was stomped on before it could go anywhere. Sounds like a hypocrate here.
Coop
His only serious vote was the bandwagon on the toy. He makes my mind feel urpy when I think about if he's an eraser or not.
Sylvester
Instead of changing his random vote, he says something not worth saying on the meanie head. He then complains about inactivity. Next post, he actually has a pretty good reason for voting the big meanie head. He also gives a heads up that he doesn't like the toy, and again complains about inactivity. His vote move looks better than average as well since it comes from figuring out what the meanie head actually says. Finally, more on inactivity.
Mr. Crocker
begins by asking the Wienie why he thought Jack was more eraser like than Jay. He's still pressing Dooku in his next post. Filburt's responce sounds like he doesn't understand why the mad scientist is attacking the Wienie. The Wienie's responce is much better. Changes his vote to the meanie head because she also glossed over Jay. At this point, if he's worried about people ignoring Jay, then why is he voting for people for not voting him rather than voting for Jay himself?
out of these five on the two town bandwagons, I'm more suspicious of Coop and Crocker.
##Vote: Mr. Crocker for his weird obsession over people not voting for Jay.
-
To answer Hank's question, I'm feeling pretty neutral on Dooku, but he does need to post more, but he strikes me as at least trying to say something one he does post.
Filbert I would like to see come back soon, he voted on me in regards to a flavor segment and not much else from what I can tell. I would also say though that he seems a little aggressive in his accusation of people, which doesn't leave a very good vibe. Doesn't really strike me as fitting his character much either >.>.
And now here's a question for Sgt. Cosgrove, why do you feel that it's alright to focus solely on the people who voted for now confirmed townies to the exclusion of everyone else?
You're also calling me the second most suspicious for...voting exactly like you did, on the exact same person you voted for, for pretty much the same reason's of his play being not good?
Still keeping the vote on Shaggy for now, keeping eyes on Cosgrove, not sure who else I would consider atm.
Also apologies for not roleplaying, I don't feel like acting like a clueless unintelligible gamer who only cares about his stomach right now.
-
The Sith are none too fond of those who call for the gods to smite the lurkers. While we agree that lurkers lend nothing to town, the call to erase more of what might be allies does not sit well with us.
Sgt Cosgrove has responded to our accusation. We welcome it, yet find it no stimulant to train our eyes on other targets. His reportings appeal to us as a device to give a false sense of contribution. His terms to refer to others are confusing- Even the Darth grow uneasy at Cosgrove's references. We have decided your reportings are futile and unhelpful. At the present moment in time, however, they are not enough to justify you as our prime target.
##UNVOTE: Cosgrove
If you say that his performance Day one was Lackluster, and that he could only vote on Lightyear for an easy stance, then why didnt you vote him day one? Hmmmm?
The answer lies in looking at when we were present on the scene. By the time Cosgrove revealed his activity and attached inability to contribute, we were not active. The Sith request you activate your sensors.
Crocker has been rapidly setting off alarms. We are curious why he does not approach people directly. His attempts at scumhunting seems veiled, and unhelpful to us. Crocker declares that someone on the Suzumiya train was suspicious- while the Sith are willing to review that assertion, we are unable to fathom why Crocker decides instead to press people who were suspicious of the train as well.
##VOTE: Crocker
Crocker's stubborn refusal to take a solid stance this day, and his presentation of an idle stance do not sit well with us. Our suspicion has been raised, our minds set. As Darth of the Sith, I hereby accuse you of being an Eraser, Crocker.
-
And now here's a question for Sgt. Cosgrove, why do you feel that it's alright to focus solely on the people who voted for now confirmed townies to the exclusion of everyone else?
Because we know they voted with intent to kill someone who was town. I know, it's a poor end-all, be-all strategy, but I still think flips should weigh more.
You're also calling me the second most suspicious for...voting exactly like you did, on the exact same person you voted for, for pretty much the same reason's of his play being not good?
So what? You want me to say I'm suspicious of myself as well?
-
Aw, thcrew it. ACME thent me a pair of Lithp-Reduthing pillth ath a thank you for my conthtant purchatheth. It'll latht me one good Wall of Tectht.
*swallows pills*
'Kay, that'll do me. Sorry, I'll be back to your regular cheery cat as soon as I'm done here.
I think my vote on Shaggy will stand for now. Posted... nothing about 9 hours ago, saying basically that he needs to catch up, then leaves? It doesnt take 9 hours to catch up with the game. Hell, it doesnt take 2 hours, with all the inactives.
So, your response to my chainsaw accusation is to...ignore me entirely and press further on a lurker? Can't say I'm fond of that.
Coop is also sort of iffy for agreeing to exactly the same, but at least in his later posts he tries to explain some of his other suspicions (or lack thereof).
Crocker's suspicion of there being an early scum in Haruhi's wagon...doesn't seem that bad to me. He got mad at Dooku for suspecting Jack for following a basic enough rule designed to get out of RVS. Accusing him of not making a vote like that well thought out enough is sort of paradoxical. What's iffy about him, though, is the fact that he hasn't bothered to vote anyone for the entirety of the day, just asking people to post more and making accusations which make...no real sense to me.
Cosgrove manages to break his silence with a massive wall of IIoA, which is sort of horrendous. He proceeds to suspect people for doing exactly what he'd just done, basically a case of the pot calling the kettle black.
Hank writes off his suspicions of me with a simple 'I looked over his posts again', which is strange but probably acceptable. Definitely not enough to put him ahead of the current wagons.
Jack I don't really have a problem with right now. Dooku's attack on him for the 3rd vote is iffy, but I can't find much wrong with him besides that.
Filbert is also really stirring up something to me. He says in his last post that he's suspicious of Crocker, and then claims that he's actually nothing compared to Coop, based on one offhand joke and his relative lack of activity? Definitely worth looking at if Crocker flips scum.
Shaggy II needs to exist. Simple as that.
I'm still very suspicious of Bender, to be fair, but I'll be around for a while before deadline. Right now I'm probably fine with either a Crocker or a Cosgrove lynch, more the former than the latter. At least Cosgrove lookth like he'th tryin' to contribute - aw, phooey, it'th worn off.
-
Like, man, it takes a while to get over acid trips. You have to sleep them off a bit.
So, yeah, like, I'm going to attempt to start anew now - no more drugs until this mystery is solved!
I think I'm, like, in total groovy harmony with those not focusing on the absent people - in all the mysteries I've solved, it's always been the people that are connected to everything - the silent ones, dude...my hand...the silent ones usually aren't a problem, but when some zany guy in the employ of the man makes single posts with little reasoning, or, like, little anything to support what they say, and makes many of them, that's, like, uncool, dude. Like, the coolest cats in this groove to me right now are the sword guy in a dress and that Jedi with the tubular sword of magic meth. Talking cat...whoadudetalkingcatmanamitripping...less so, but still cool enough.
Speaking of pot and acid and LSD and PCP and...like, all the other good stuff, my absence thus far is all due to those crazy drugs, man. I'm good now, I swear - I'm on the mystery-solving side here! It just took a while to detox. Anything yesterday was all due to those brownies I ate.
So, like, here's my current thoughts on the situation, dude:
Coop: http://www.rpgdl.com/forums/index.php?topic=3895.msg75158#msg75158 - states nothing new, votes as a bandwagon. As was, like, Buzzzzzzzzzzzzed up in the pre-hanging time, he hadn't said anything much, besides firing out a vote with little backing. Like, he could be some midget scientists hiding inside that mound of fat! http://www.rpgdl.com/forums/index.php?topic=3895.msg75311#msg75311 isn't too much gnarlier - I don't like how he forgot about who he was lynching...it's an odd aside he made that makes my Scooby Senses tingle...or maybe that's just urine. Like, pussy, I see what you mean, but when combined with his other ramble, it looks like an odd-ball slip - why say something that, like, wasn't there and dude? And he does explain it himself, but...well, the rest of that post? His reason to stay on me was a random slurpee thing? It looked like he was just trying to cover a slip! I didn't steal your slurpee, man! I know you posted a reason before, but it looked like, mostly a, like, lurker shot only, which is a pretty easy shot! You keep the vote on me...for this? http://www.rpgdl.com/forums/index.php?topic=3895.msg75500#msg75500. You, like, say lurkers have to be scum? I don't, like agree - they could be, but people saying something that means nothing means nothing which means something! I'm more worried about you keeping your vote on someone for the lurker aspect. When half the group is lurking, it's, like...well, you can't know! If it were a smaller group, I'd agree with you - but you're lurking yourself, not contributing much.
Bender falls into the same category - a lot of the comments have been mentioned. He disappears more, and, like, uses the same reason for keeping a vote on me consistently. I'm an easy target right now...since I've been drugged up all day. It's too easy - anyone can jump on that, and it makes you have an easy target without much thinking beyond, "hey, munchies!"
As for Crocker...Haruhi I think had a good point with him, and he looks like he's going, man. At this stage, he'll be gone, and I think, like, the case is decent enough...he's said a lot of nothings and ramblings. I still feel stronger about Coop and Bender, myself.
Filburt's been out for today, but...I get a neutral read on him, like I do with everyone else not mentioned above. Dude....

With 10 alive, it still takes 6 to lynch. You have about 2 hours remaining.

Buggerfuck.
I was going to be around from now to the deadline, but I've just (re-)broke a tooth. You'll excuse the complete drop of character, but fuck, I need to get this solved fast. I just hope I won't need replacing.

Jack
He first jumps on the meanie head for voting third, which seems a little jumpy to me. I don't think being bringing someway half to lynch is something you should worry about, kid. He then jumps onto the toy for a reason that looks almost like that one. It was combined with the bad reasoning, but he still put a tone on the number of votes. I will admit, he's got conviction at the end. I think that outweighs the bad things I see.
Most of his reason for jumping bandwagons seemed to be the number of votes. I think this is slightly anti-town since it puts a halt to bandwagon information. The fact that he didn't want to switch off of Buzz at the end reads townie sourced to me, since I think scum would jump off either to not have power role blood on their hands or, if they looked townie enough themselves, could convince him to shoot someone who was town. Slightly town read, but not swayed.
Hank Hill
Does the exact same thing as Jack in his second vote. Jumps on the Buzz vote for pretty much the same reason as anyone else. He then blames the cat for bandwagon hopping on the Scaredy-cat, the Meanie head, and the toy. I don't really see how the Scaredy-cat became a bandwagon, since the bandwagon was stomped on before it could go anywhere. Sounds like a hypocrate here.
Again, I think the switch to the meanie head was slightly anti-town. He seemed hypocritical on his attack on the cat in that he was also doing almost - and arguably just as much - bandwagoning as well. He seems mostly anti-town right now. He's distant third of the people I've read through, but yes I would be willing to vote him.
Coop
His only serious vote was the bandwagon on the toy. He makes my mind feel urpy when I think about if he's an eraser or not.
His only serious vote was a bandwagon. There's not much here to see, so aside from that you could only pin lurking onto him.
For new stuff, his going after Shaggy for just lurking, and partially justified lurking at that makes him "Calling the Kettle Black" as well, which if it's a scumtell this game, I might as well use against him, too. Still willing to vote him. I'm also getting weird bonding vibes between him and Bender.
Sylvester
Instead of changing his random vote, he says something not worth saying on the meanie head. He then complains about inactivity. Next post, he actually has a pretty good reason for voting the big meanie head. He also gives a heads up that he doesn't like the toy, and again complains about inactivity. His vote move looks better than average as well since it comes from figuring out what the meanie head actually says. Finally, more on inactivity.
Not changing your random vote is worth noting, but I got a pro-town feel out of his vote for the meanie head. Yes, it was wrong, but he had a reason for voting her, and once that reason disappeared, he properly unvoted. Repeated complaining about inactivity gets a null from me, since it's just the cat being a whiny face.
Mr. Crocker
begins by asking the Wienie why he thought Jack was more eraser like than Jay. He's still pressing Dooku in his next post. Filburt's responce sounds like he doesn't understand why the mad scientist is attacking the Wienie. The Wienie's responce is much better. Changes his vote to the meanie head because she also glossed over Jay. At this point, if he's worried about people ignoring Jay, then why is he voting for people for not voting him rather than voting for Jay himself?
Pressing Dooku seems slightly pro-town since he's off away from bandwagons. Dooku has a good counterpoint to his argument. His votes on Jack and the meanie head strike me oddly and in sort of an pro-scum way. It looks as if he's trying to get other's votes onto a single target that he's not willing to vote for himself. This is why my vote is on him.
There, does that sound better, Mr. Cat?

One hour remaining!

Gimme those pills, NOW.
*Swallow*
One thing I am seeing about the case against me is that people are pretty much saying the same thing over again. Mr Jack kicked it off with the point on Dooku and Sherman. Mr Hill comes around and says pretty much the same thing. Mr. Cosgrove comes around and says the same thing. Mr. Dooku has been at least picky about one different thing. Although, as I said, in retrospective I should have asked these questions directly, for Dooku I had an answer, and take in account that both questions would have been leaded to Mr. Sherman, who is now uh... dead.
Saying this, it makes me feel kind of uneasy that Hill and Cosgrove have been rehashing what Jack said, and nobody acknowledges the other people saying "I agree with x about Crocker". Having said this, I find ironical that Cosgrove is pointing me out for the same thing he's pretty much doing in his post, just like Mr. Cat said. And his next post tries to add something else to there, but it's just rehashing the same things.
Also, Mr. Cosgrove, sorry, but I haven't voted Jack at all. Mind checking?
However, what strikes me most out of everything is Mr. Robot's appearance and disappearance. Certainly he looks as the perfect lurker in my eyes. He hasn't posted much, yet he has posted enough to present "Hey, I'm here", just commenting on his vote and nothing else, spectacting what's going on with people around. One thing is absence and another completely different thing is lurking. Bender falls into the latter. No comments on lynch/death, just... Shaggy.
Cosgrove and Bender seem suspicious in my eyes, however, I'm going for Bender, simply because he accomplishes what it's a perfect lurker. No notices, no posts, no useful info, only deflecting all of this on a previous missing person. A proper "missing" would be Sherman and previously Cosgrove and Hill. Bender is not a proper missing person. He has been early, and he was here when the accusations against people started. Plus, his "missingness" was pretty rough, and he also talks about "catching up".

After a confusion where both Jay Sherman and the possessed Mr. Crocker were thrown into the Dip (an action no one claimed to have taken), there was a clatter outside the door, and Freakazoid burst into the room.
"Cosgrove! There you are! I've been looking all over for you! Have you seen these Eraser things? They're so neat! You have to see one!"
"Nah, I'm bored of all this. Hey, Freakazoid, wanna go to the fair?"
"DO I!?"
Freakazoid ran off, with Cosgrove walking out the door behind him. As he left, he gave one final turn and wave to the crowd.
"See ya, kids."
---
Mr. Crocker (Scum Rolecop) couldn't get his wish to live granted!
Jay Sherman (Vanilla Townie) stunk just a little bit too much!
Sgt. Cosgrove (Vanilla Townie) was killed overnight!
It is now Day 3. With 8 alive, it takes 5 to lynch. You have 48 hours as always. Good luck!

Okay, after latht night'th actionth my Bender vote feelth very rithky now. Crocker threw the vote onto him at the latht minute when hith death wath more or leth assured. Either he wath tryin' to dithtanthe himthelf from a buddy or he wanted uth to think that...it'th a WIFOM at betht.
So it'th probably betht jutht to ignore it and go on thcumineth alone. Nothin' like pressure to get the lurker'th talkin'. ##Vote: Bender
-
Like, dude...people died? Man, aren't you just supposed to take off their masks and arrest them?
What the talking kitty said...is an important thing to think about, and does, like, kind of make me reconsider my vote a little...
But, dude, on the other hand, like, if you take the assumption that he voted him to protect him, you could also (and this gets real trippy logic, man), then he also called Cosgrove out too, and we know that pig was, like, working for the man - the good one! It is a little odd, and it does make me re-think him slightly...but it's taking a chance, man, and really playing circular reasoning like trying to hula-hoop on LSD, man.
Like that crazy kat, I'm sticking to the people who look worst, and that means I still stick with the self-proclaimed Jersian.
##Vote: Coop
Still strikes me as the worst, from what I said the other day. I'm fairly confident one of the two who wanted to nuke me yesterday is a bad man, man. I feel stronger about voting Coop than Bender, although Bender is the next on my list.
Note for later: the turtle hasn't been around since the start of the last day...hope he wasn't flushed.
Now, time for a little thinking weed.

Tooth crisis under control. Not fixed, but a clear plan, so you shouldn't hear about that again and I ought to be able to play as normal. Photos if you want proof, I guess, but it's not like the break itself is anything but a pure neutral tell so far as the game cares.
If anything, in retrospect I'm a little glad I missed the deadline, as I was getting paranoid that it was looking too much like day 1, so given that Crocker did flip scum it's good that I wasn't given the chance to waver (even if his defence in itself was poor).
The flip implies strongly to me that there's at least some scum among the lurkers, because I'm not sure how else that lynch could have just slowly wandered out in front. At this point I'm seeing Hill and the avatar of evil as fairly strongly town, as I'm having a really hard time seeing how bussing Crocker could make sense in that situation when it wouldn't have been hard to justify voting for one of the lurkers, and one vote difference is all it would have taken. (I know, I'm at least partially covering myself by extension)
This leaves Filburt, Shaggy, Sylvester, Coop and Bender, who all ended up on other trains.
Filburt has taken a nosedive since the start of his prolonged absence, following a relatively solid day 1 performance with a dire day 2 one. Now on the wrong side of neutral for pretty simple reasons.
Not much of a read on neoShaggy yet, as Crocker was heading to the gallows by the time he actually got a post out. Not thrilled by the lurkers voting lurkers attack/defence, but it doesn't read as poorly as his two targets.
What worries me about Sylvester in particular now is just how much of a difference he's been treating Bender and Coop despite their similiarities, most notably in just how little he references Coop (twice - once in defence, once in a weak, sedated argument in comparison to Bender) while pressing Bender. As I think Coop looks worst at the moment, this reads direly for Sylvester if Coop flips scum, especially in tow of a string of 'easy choice' votes. I admittedly don't see how scumSylvester works without scumCoop.
That said, the thing is that Bender and Coop do look individually the worst, and annoyingly similar. Bender with a grand total of little more than a repeated lurker opinion on Shaggy, and Coop with the high[er] volume, low content approach... resulting in little more than a lurker opinion on Shaggy, with the bonus of jumping on the Buzz wagon day 1. Neither of them comment on Crocker at all, except possibly obtusely from Coop in his opinion that the active people look less scummy. While I do think that Bender reads terribly for actively not being around, I'm again of the opinion that active coasting is a more decidedly conscious and anti-town position than simple low content. Even his latest post is an almost opinionless bag of nothing despite referring to like half the players. Bender I could potentially see as being away and unhelpful (although seriously man, please get involved soon), but I'm not sure I can even see a town angle to Coop's actions by this point.
##Vote: Coop
##Prod: Filburt, Bender, Dooku
Re-reading Crockers posts hasn't helped too much, as it does now just like delaying tactic after delaying tactic after delaying tactic. Only his last post really goes into accusations rather than just 'hey guys, I want to ask some questions', and scum on death row is WIFOM heavy at best.
Ninja'd by Shaggy. Nothing to add from that, as it seems mostly in tune with my position.

The Sith are none too fond of those who call for the gods to smite the lurkers. While we agree that lurkers lend nothing to town, the call to erase more of what might be allies does not sit well with us.
I think we're going to have to agree to disagree. Rather a 'free'/bonus modkill than a wasted lynch when it goes this far. I agree that lurkers should be given a chance, but there's got to be a limit in there somewhere for them to die or set to lynching or scum would have no need to stop lurking. 60 hours and no actual content next to that is way past wherever that limit may be, surely.
-
Like, just to clarify a bit, my case on Coop isn't all about pointing his capitalist gun at me.
As you noted, he didn't say anything much about Cock man, who was, like, the main issue yesterday, and instead jumped on the "easy" lurker target, despite other stuff happening dude. Like, man, it's like raping a chick who passed out from doing too much heroin at a party - it's shameless. Especially that I just woke up from my drug-induced coma - while I couldn't be give, like, a free pass? There wasn't anything to go on, and for the same reason he was going after me, he could have gone after some others similarly. It was just odd that it coincided the way it did. I admit that lurker vs. lurker is weak, but it was more of a "posting lurker who hasn't said much" vs. "person who hasn't been here" Looked like a typical bad man tactic, dude!
Also, would you guys like to sign my petition?

What worries me about Sylvester in particular now is just how much of a difference he's been treating Bender and Coop despite their similiarities, most notably in just how little he references Coop (twice - once in defence, once in a weak, sedated argument in comparison to Bender) while pressing Bender. As I think Coop looks worst at the moment, this reads direly for Sylvester if Coop flips scum, especially in tow of a string of 'easy choice' votes. I admittedly don't see how scumSylvester works without scumCoop.
I've theen Bender online during night phatheth, and bathed on that I'm relatively thure he'th lurkin'. Coop at leatht maketh a genuine effort ta give thome content - Bender'th the reathon they invented Lynch All Lurkerth.
I'm not thayin that Coop'th clear or anythin', I jutht really don't like how Bender doeth thinigth. My main problem with him ith that even after I accuthed him of chainthawing the Count over Cothgrove, he ignored it entirely and jutht thtuck with hith Shaggy vote. If not rethponding to catheth againtht you ithn't anti-Town, I dunno what ith.

This is the discrepancy - I'm not saying that your case on Bender is spurious. Individually he's second only to Coop to me, and I agree with your case at least in principal. Again, what does worry me is just how much you've separated Coop from Bender, mostly silently, when I'm not seeing such a clear dividing line beyond Bender's aggressive stance on his low presence.
You say that Coop is making a 'genuine effort' to post content, but the only content I can find on any number of re-reads is justification for bandwagonning Lightyear, repeated sitting on Shaggy, and some very indecisive neutral rambling - the clearest of which only on a specific prod from Hill - leaving him with what, bad feelings about the people who were openly suspicious of him and neutral otherwise? (Okay, I must concede that he had grounds to object to both Filburt and Cosgrove, but the positioning still stinks of OMGUS)
Again, although I do think that Coop's rather more active/conscious coasting is worse than Bender's, it's neither your vote nor your position on Bender but your striking relative position on Coop that sets off major alarm bells if Coop is scum.
-
The Sith are wary. Though we have struck the proper target the last day, the ease with which it went worries us. Scum employed little effort to sway our eyes from Crocker. We advise the exertion of proper wariness.
To the Sith, we have now two people we are willing to vote:
Bender has been offensive in his stark disappearances, and persisted voting for Shaggy on accounts of lurking: while the Sith agree that Shaggy's activity has been as lackluster as many, the problem is just that. There are many offenders of the same degree, and even more of a worse degree. Bender falls in the final category, providing no helpful insights, nor good reasons for his voting patterns.
The second the Sith have turned their eyes to is Sylvester, though his is not as alarming. At the end of the past day, he declared inability to do anything about the lynch. This in particular strikes us, although we cannot explain this: the Force works in mysterious ways. The further charge we hold against him is his idleness at the start of the second day, although that charge by itself is no reason to punish him with death. As it stands, the cat remains in our sights, though our conviction is weak.
Of the residue, we find Jack wanting to go to unnecessary lengths to convince us of his tooth woes, Hank Hill to be unjustified in calling people out on lurking, Coop and Filburt duck below the probing powers of the Force and leave us with little to work with.
##VOTE: Bender
Bender, our eyes turn to you.

Jack is back, but with only one post in the meantime I have little to add other than being disappointed at another slow day, with half the players yet to comment today, especially when those are the two vote leaders, the new super lurker and Hill's second long patch out.
The avatar of evil hits another weird point to contend with me, but does remind me that Sylvester was the other one to deliberately withhold his vote at the start of day 2 alongisde scumCrocker, which I had forgotten about from being too focussed on Crocker's weird responses at the time. That Bender is the other player to have done the same in an unfavourable situation only serves to muddy the waters further, though.
I'm still more immediately interested in Bender and Coop, though, and more than likely Filburt as well if/when he resurfaces, but discussion feels annoyingly stifled at the moment without their presence to defend themselves (which is not far off the whole point, I know).
-
The avatar of evil hits another weird point to contend with me
What point in particular displeases you?
I'm still more immediately interested in Bender and Coop, though,
If you have suspicions about the Sith, we would hear them now- awaiting those who idle shall not bring about progress, and if doubt exists about the Sith's desire to conspire with you to defeat the Erasers, we would dispel it before it bears fruit.
We must admit the massive lurking going on makes us desenchanted with the game.
-
Alright, sorry for taking so long, first real week of classes so I've not had much time to read things and post and whatnot.
Shaggy makes an interesting case against me I guess? But it doesn't really strike me as being as good as he seems to think it is. You're accusing me of going after you purely for being a lurker when it's not entirely true. My original vote on Shaggy was because he basically just made an I'm here post, tried to direct attention towards a confirmed town, and then went off without actually voting or contributing anything worthwhile before he became neoshaggy.
While it looks bad, I generally ignored Crocker due to my inability to really gather any meaning from his posts.
Still not getting the case on my flavor text, it was merely an attempt to stay in character, it also happenned to be around 3 in the morning when I posted it.
The four people who voted Crocker are definitely the most townlike to me at this point, though there might be a slim possibility that the scum wanted to avoid all hoping onto a train to save one of their own, and so maybe there's a slim chance one of them was in on it, but that is much to WIFOM to think about at this point.
Of the people who didn't vote Crocker, Sylvester strikes me as the most townlike of those that aren't me. I don't really fault Bender for his votes since I see the same sort of things in Shaggy, though his general lack of saying anything otherwise is worrisome.
Filbert looks terrible, voting based on flavor text more then anything and not posting since, but hasn't posted and is up for modkill so I'll ignore him for now
This leaves me with Shaggy: Shaggy's case on me seems to be mostly based as an OMGUS, he ignores my case on his pre Neoshaggy post and basically claims my sole case on him is due to him lurking, I think that's a generally bad argument to place against me considering the general postcount of this game, many people just don't seem to be that into posting this game, but of the two posts I saw from Shaggy before the hammer came he said absolutely nothing worthwhile, and even failed to put a vote, whereas at least everyone else had said something of meaning at the time, and Sherman was up for modkill.
I got to wake up to seeing Shaggy finally post something right before the day had ended, in it he basically focuses everything he can onto trying to make a case on me which I guess is understandable, however, the things he says at the end of the post kind of worry me. Shaggy acknowledges that Crocker is probably going to bite it, but ignores that train and basically tries to divert attention to myself while showing no interest himself in voting for Crocker. It kind of strikes me as an excuse not to vote for one of his own potentially, while simultaneously avoiding the potential of a "He hammered purely for towncred argument".
I'm aware I don't look good at all really, but I'm going to stick with what I think here.

Good: Coop getting involved with a substantial post.
Bad: Waiting this late before getting one out.
Ugly: Bender has again plain not shown up. Nor Filburt. (Nor Hill, but less pressing)
Good: Surprisingly not just a lifeline attack/defence on Bender.
Bad: Excuse for ignoring Crocker. Especially when he was the dish of the day.
Ugly: Oh god blanket defence for Sylvester without rationale. My mind, the WIFOM burns.
Good: uhh... nope, guess I can't make this balance any longer.
Bad: "Shaggy's case on me is understandable, but..."
Ugly: Sympathy case on looking bad.
The Crocker thing is now even more striking, as he was the vote leader on three votes at the time of your last post yesterday, and you had resolved to sit on the second train (if two votes can be called a train) without comment on him. (this applies almost identically to Bender as well, which is part of why this is really frustrating unless you're both scum)
While I sympathise somewhat with your case on Shaggy, the way you went for him on day 2 reads more like an easy scum lynch target than anything else, especially with how the votes ended up, so while I do appreciate that he hadn't posted anything of note by the time you left, it doesn't actually affect my view. The one point I will agree about is that yeah, I don't like Shaggy taking issue with the whole flavour thing. What I actively dislike about your case on Shaggy regards the Crocker stuff, because potential WIFOM aside that part read reasonably to me, and he sure didn't just ignore the case as you're claiming.
So, some mindhurt aside I'm still relatively comfortable with a Coop lynch. I'll be back a bit before the deadline, by which point I seriously hope that our missing elements have posted or it's going to be messy.

Oh, and I should quickly respond to the avatar of evil before leaving.
The points, in order, were the intent pressing for the Suzumiya vote on day 1, the modkill lurker point towards the end of day 2 and the tooth thing now in day 3, which all struck me as weird more than anything else. Possibly the Suzumiya vote thing aside, as that actually felt scummy (tunnelling the point throughout day 1, that is, not the initial view on it which I did take as discussion building). The modkill lurker thing I just didn't expect anyone to take issue with, and I don't really get the tooth thing when I had/have nothing to gain from it. Again, not directly scummy so much as weird, the only one of which I'd even care to hear more about at all is why you clung to just my Suzumiya vote all of day 1, and even if this stuff had raised my hackles, I'd be finding it hard to resolve that against your vote on the scum lynch yesterday.
My second quote you have there was about Sylvester, who I now seem to be going around in circles with, but I didn't want the conversation to be railroaded away from the lurkers just because they continued to not be around. The discussion is useful, sure, especially if I'm not around for day 4, but not where I saw day 3 going.
-
Ugh. I've been trying since about 3 hours into Day 3 to create a "this is what everyone has said so far" post, but my computer kept crashing, so every single attempt has failed, and I now give up. Unfortunately, I don't know how much longer it is to deadline , and while I wish I could at least make one last small attempt today, I don't think it'll work out. (School has me very busy on weekdays, now) I have been following though, and I know where this is headed. And if it's down to Coop and Bender...
Well, I don't actually have anything else to add to this. And I'm not sure whether the vanishing act or the actively voting Shaggy/not really saying much is worse, in my eyes. Ugh.
I will say that Shaggy isn't looking so good anymore, what with his smear campaign. (I noticed that he completely ignored Coop's actual reasons for voting him and instead only mentioned the flavor reason).
As it stands, I'd rather lynch Bender, if for no other reason than "Let's kill off people who aren't saying anything at all." Though if he gets put up for modkill, I will switch to Coop.

Sorry for the sloppiness of the post, btw. I'm kinda in a hurry.

Like, dude...harsh.

What you're saying, is like, I'm voting him because of flavour? Did you read the above post, like, at all? I mentioned that once, and never mentioned it again (and that was yesterday, man!). Dude...come on. You're blowing something I said once, and saying it was the "only" reason I'm voting him, when you ignored the above post? Man...next you're going to tell me you're completely against legalizing marijuana. "Smear campaign" is completely dumb to say here...I noted why I voted for him above. Your vote...strikes me as really, really bad. "I'd' rather lynch x, to kill off people who aren't saying anything, but if he's up for modkill, I will switch to y". I can understand voting for Bender, but you just made a point about me being bad looking, and then don't mention...anything about anyone else? Like I said, I take no exception to the Bender vote itself, and can understand why, but...man, what hash are you smoking? You're overplaying a single comment I made, old man, and ignoring the rest of what I've said.
A lot of the above applies to Mr. Robot-pants as well. Seriously...
"Purely being a lurker..."
I said it's odd you went after me for lurking when there were other subjects, and I just came off an acid trip. It looked just like an easy jump vote, maaaaaaaaaaaan.
"Flavour text"
I will concede that I did initially make a bigger deal in my post than I meant to, man. But now it's being overplayed - what I said was that it was an odd thing to put there...and I basically left it at that. The bigger issue with that post was that you didn't say anything there except...that, and a jump on me for a slurpee. You didn't add anything, and justified your vote jokingly - I can understand a joke, it's ok - the big deal, man, is, like, like...what I said above! Jumping on me for the easiness of it. Just because I sleep with a dog, naked, doesn't mean I'm that easy, dude.
"No vote Crocker"
Like, he was going down, man. I did say I thought he was worthy of a nuke.
"The four people who voted Crocker are definitely the most townlike to me at this point, though there might be a slim possibility that the scum wanted to avoid all hoping onto a train to save one of their own, and so maybe there's a slim chance one of them was in on it, but that is much to WIFOM to think about at this point. Of the people who didn't vote Crocker, Sylvester strikes me as the most townlike of those that aren't me. I don't really fault Bender for his votes since I see the same sort of things in Shaggy, though his general lack of saying anything otherwise is worrisome."
I really don't know exactly what to make of this, but it looks odd to me for some reason.
Like, I do understand what you mean about the, "Shaggy not doing anything to respond to the neoShaggy vs. oldShaggy argument", but, dude...I don't remember anything! I was like high - there wasn't much there. I can't make out much from it, and I do not know what was meant by that. I think it's really, like, manny to go after a guy after he's been, like, out on a trip. They're like, two different people man!
Dude, heroin shot needed. Be back in a high.

Well since my lynch seems inevitable:
I am Coop Cooplowski - master of fighting games, drinker of slurpees, and pilot of giant robots.
I am a Vanilla Townie because chicks dig vanilla townies.
I'll stick by my current thoughts though, Shaggy just hasn't been striking me in a good way. From what I gather he's basically trying to dismiss what the old shaggy said as completely inconsequential to the current game, when I find it to be the opposite. I understand that since you're someone else you can't explain it, but that doesn't mean that I should completely ignore it because you're different.
Shaggy has basically tried to downplay that part of my argument towards him and make it look like I'm mostly going after him purely for reasons of Lurking, which really isn't the case.
I would definitely recommend going after him day 4 >.>.

##VOTE: Sylvester
As promised, the Sith will now adjust to our secondary lynch target. We admit that our conviction is weak, but there is little to work with this game. Sylvester's idle stance at the start of Day 2 did not sit us well, and something about his last comment the end of the previous day makes us feel that he is an Eraser.
If he would wish to explain that comment to us and abate our suspicions, the Sith are willing to banish Coop to oblivion.

##UNVOTE: Sylvester
We of the Sith can agree with a Coop lynch. However, we felt it important to address the issue of our previous accusation, and find it satisfying that you have now attempted to explain.
##VOTE/HAMMER: Coop
Coop, as Darth of the Sith, I hereby condemn you to oblivion. Call upon the power of your Force, if you can- the dark side of the Force shall obliterate you nonetheless.
Perhaps, in the next life, you will be more willing to defend yourself. Your unwillingness to do so is our justification for your demise.

HAMMER SHUT UP
Filbert has been modkilled for inactivity!

mr coop and mr bender were just innocent...transfer students from canada. they were vanilla townies. sorry! ;_;

"Where have all our comrades disappeared to? I did not sense their departure."
"Like, maybe they're under those anvils?"
Sure enough, there were anvils strewn around the room that hasn't been there before. Three of them, to be exact. While four of the remaining crowd looked confused, Sylvester looked up.
"Aha! There you are, you little flying morthel!"
Fluttering near the ceiling of the room was Tweety, who held another anvil in his claws.
"Oooh! Puddy tat really stinky! You know what to do when a puddy tat smells too much!"
And with those words, Sylvester's nose disappeared, enraging the feline.
"What on Earth? You're an Erather! Get back here, you little traitor!"
Tweety flew giggling from the room with Sylvester hot on his heels, dodging the last falling anvil along the way.

Sylvester (Town Tracker) lotht hith head! (Or at leatht a part of it)
With 4 alive, it takes 3 to lynch. YOU ARE IN LYLO. There is no time limit (this promises to end well).

What.
No, really, what.
The three remaining from the Crocker train, plus Shaggy?
Well this looks either trivial or hideously convoluted to me. Maybe I'd be less suspicious if not for Sylvester looking like the worst possible NK for scumShaggy, maybe unless he knew he was the tracker or something.
I'm also surprised that neither Bender nor Coop were scum, but at least Filburt was and gives us more to work with. I was, as promised, back on before the deadline yesterday, but the avatar of evil hammered (was that really necessary?) before I could get a post in. The most important thing I had to point out was that with two modkills on the horizon we were in fact probably in some sort of crazy pseudo-LYLO of sorts, as if none of Bender, Filburt and Coop had been scum then odds were the game could have ended that night phase - not that I imagine this would have changed what we did. I'd otherwise intended to flag up one line from Shaggy that rang huge alarm bells, but I guess I'll address that in full in just a bit.
For now, LYLO roll/role call. I'm Samurai Jack, the sword-wielding hero of justice. I'm out of my element here in the future, and can only rely on my wits to survive - AKA vanilla townie trying to attract the NK all game.
I'm not sure when you guys'll actually be around, so in the meantime I'm going to go back and review everything that the three of you, Crocker and Filburt have said over the course of the game, or at least as much as I can find the time for now.
-
If it's time to claim, then I am Hank Hill. Lover of hard work and honesty, the flag-bearer of propane, and a fan of the Dallas Cowboys! Nobody would dare attack me for fear of hitting one of the nearby propane tanks. (AKA: Bulletproof townie, was hoping to attract Scum's eyes all game)

Trying to keep this as succinct as possible, but sure, expansions wherever. Formatting here is Player A-Player B, where Player A is the player whose posts I'm sifting through at the time, and checking out what they say about Player B and vice versa.
Crocker-Shaggy: I can't read much into this connection, as they mostly didn't overlap. If anything, it's odd that for all of the talk of lurkers in his final post here (http://www.rpgdl.com/forums/index.php?topic=3895.msg75545#msg75545) he didn't have anything to say about Shaggy. Otherwise yeah, just a note on the latter's absence here and there.In the other direction, there's just neoShaggy's one comment in support of the Crocker lynch under two other trains (that have since flipped town).
Crocker-Dooku: I'm not liking what I'm seeing here. Day 1 saw Crocker with an early vote for Dooku for pretty bad rationale, which he then took off incredibly tamely, and then prodded at Dooku again again a little at the start of day 2 without any conviction behind it, which bears all of the trademarks of forced scum-scum drama. On the flip side, Dooku refers to Crocker only in defence of the latters attack on him, and then in the post where he votes for him. I think I'd be all up for marking this down as bussing if not for it making absolutely no sort of sense for Dooku to be bussing him at that point as far as I can see, short of say achieving bafflement and safety now, but I still don't see anything short of Thanatos.
Crocker-Hank: Referred to several times in the context of his argument against Dooku but otherwise ignored until he complains about him being on his train for unoriginal reasons. Not really seeing it clearer than neutral with Crocker's chaotic style. The other way around, Hank didn't mention him at all until the start of day 2, whereupon he voted for him and stuck fast. Again, would have a really tough time seeing the scumminess in that play.
Crocker-Jack: is it impolite/cheeky to do this myself? He used me as part of his anti-Dooku platform and the more general 'people on the initial Miss Suzumiya train' angle in general in day one, then failed to butter me up when I stuck a vote down on him. In his finally post. he oddly OMGUSed both Hank and Crocker for voting for him, but not me. Possibly on grounds of activity? In reverse, I disliked him from mid day 1 (although lol, I must have been falling asleep when I wrote this (http://www.rpgdl.com/forums/index.php?topic=3895.msg75001#msg75001) post - my discussion on Crocker just stopped midway and I don't think anyone pointed that out so I never finished it off then), but consciously stuck with Lightyear over him. This having failed, picked up and ran with the case from first thing day 2.
Crocker-Filburt: Mostly just skimmed this, but in short Crocker agreed with a fair amount that Filburt had to say while Filburt ragged on him a lot. That Filburt disappeared almost immediately after at least myself and Coop pointed out that his vote on Coop over Crocker was blown out of proportion and he should have been forced back onto Crocker should have been more telling, I guess.
Filburt-Shaggy: When Filburt shielded Crocker by voting Coop, he also shielded Shaggy somewhat. Ugh. That's basically the only communication they've had, given that Filburt and neoShaggy didn't overlap at all.
Filburt-Dooku: Crazily, only one reference to Dooku at all from Filburt, and that was part of his ealy argument against Crocker. And, uh, nothing from Dooku about Filburt either, given how single-minded his play has been for most of the game.
Filburt-Hank: Again, nothing from Filburt on Hank other than as part of the translation of Miss Suzumiya. And likewise nothing from Hank back on Filburt other than as part of drumming up activity.
Filburt-Jack: Got rather defensive after I pointed out his cheerleading of the Buzz train, after an earlier petty shot at me (air bag disguised as discussion building?) for my initial Suzumiya vote, although I did still have him placed as slightly town during day 1 other than the cheerleading for being active.
Okay, so this is taking far too long, and is already quite the WoT. Will be back to finish up in a handful of hours. Though my paranoia so far seems to be digging me towards Dooku based on this, my actual level-headed approach is still massively weighted against Shaggy being on some crazy final day gambit, and if it is Shaggy then it's not exactly greatly shocking that there wasn't much communication to glean information from.
Before I go I should address the most recent point from Shaggy that really struck me the wrong way that I mentioned before:
"The four people who voted Crocker are definitely the most townlike to me at this point, though there might be a slim possibility that the scum wanted to avoid all hoping onto a train to save one of their own, and so maybe there's a slim chance one of them was in on it, but that is much to WIFOM to think about at this point. Of the people who didn't vote Crocker, Sylvester strikes me as the most townlike of those that aren't me. I don't really fault Bender for his votes since I see the same sort of things in Shaggy, though his general lack of saying anything otherwise is worrisome."
I really don't know exactly what to make of this, but it looks odd to me for some reason.
Unjustified gut feel ahoy. "I don't like you and want to lynch you, but can't find good reasoning for it, so I'll just claim something feels wrong." Oh so very bad.

(http://img36.imageshack.us/img36/4511/1811s.jpg)
I had been hoping that everyone would have posted by now, but never mind. Here's the second half of my giant re-read, this time covering what you guys have done in the course of the game.
Shaggy: A great big zip for day 1, with just one joke post... right near the end. Absent on day 2 with an excuse until the last three hours when he was relatively safe (behind Crocker, though, so I don't know), latches on to the two people voting for him, cheers Crocker behind that and grants everyone a plain neutral read. Still don't think I can blame him for the OMGUS at that point, admittedly. Oh, and while I previously said there was no connection between Filburt and Shaggy due to their activity never coinciding, they were in fact the two people voting for Coop at the end of day 2. Day 3 continues the Coop attack with a side of Bender, and while that was the main dish of the day, it does now strike me that when I go looking for what he thinks about any of the rest of us I can find absolutely nothing, which I'd call bad play if scum if not for Bender not having been confirmed for modkill by the time of his last post (that's to say, scumShaggy would have expected one of Coop or Shaggy to be around to attack day 4).
Now, the thing is that I don't have anything against his attack on Coop in general - after all, I bought into that case for mostly similar reasons and am still scratching my head over why he did it as town. What I don't like about it is the aggression to the point of tunnel vision, and the Coop flavour text post attack was just plain silly. A completely blank slate on the rest of the live players at this point is horrible.
Later edit: oh, wait, no, he did respond to both Hank and me, but effectively just in self-defence in both cases. In Hank's case rather more aggressively. I find it hard to side with either in that particular spat, as the reasons for Shaggy voting Coop and the reasons for Coop voting Shaggy were both largely in flux all day.
Dooku: Day 1 spent solely on my early vote on Miss Suzumiya, which I've addressed previously (don't think I got an answer for it - I kind of stopped being worried after Crocker flipped scum with Dooku's key vote on the train), with an open ticket to swap to Buzz late on set up if not executed. Day 2 started with a pot shot on a lurker - as several other people attempted - but is then followed by the key vote on Crocker. Looking back at the vote count at the time, I really can't figure the scumDooku angle - it pushed Crocker from frontrunner to clear frontrunner. Would the flak from helping him to bail then have been so bad? If nothing else, simply not posting then would have served his cause far better, especially when it could have led to a three way mess between Crocker, Coop and Shaggy. His day 3 is easily the best out of the three as well, the previously mentioned weird blip aside, covering as it does far more than just the two 'easy' cases at hand.
Hank: Spent most of day 1 following me around (on Haruhi, Buzz, and Filburt), bridging out on to Sylvester before dropping that in day 2. Again, this would be rather worrying if not that this trend continued and he followed me right on to the Crocker train and stuck to it like glue. Activity has otherwise plummeted, although my condolences assuming that you did repeatedly lose a big day 3 post. Would have been worried about his tipping factor for Bender > Coop had the latter flipped scum, but that's moot. So not great overall, especially with the overbearing tendency to follow rather than lead cases, but as much as I bash my head, the initiative on Crocker from relatively early on (so far as votes went, anyway - it was 2 on Shaggy and a whole bunch on 1 vote at the time) just doesn't compute for scumHank - it would have been oh so very easy for him to have backed up a vote on any number of the lurkers instead.
So yes, two big posts later and I arrive at the initially obvious conclusion. The whole thing looks like a bizarre final day gambit from Shaggy to me. As much as I said Sylvester looked like the worst possible NK for scumShaggy, on further thought the same could be said for everyone - with both Shaggy and Sylvester alive odds would have been far more likely that discussion would have framed around them and not garnered extra scrutiny as this Shaggy only position already has.
I'll stay my vote until the roll/role call is complete, just in case there's a major revelation yet to come.
-
Count Dooku of the Sith- aka Darth Sidious. The powers of the Force are futile in the battle against the Erasers. We serve as vanilla town for this game.
We will be reviewing all past actions to determine who should likely be the last Eraser.

Avatar of evil: I'm going to be leaving fairly shortly, so if you have any immediately pressing questions for me they'll need to be soon.
-
QUESTION FOR THE MOD: Would it not be potential LYLO, since scum could have hit the bulletproof on a mislynch this night?
-
Technically it is possible for the game to not end today even with a mislynch, so yes, I suppose "potential LYLO" is applicable.
-
Shaggy has been prodded for inactivity. He has 24 hours to post.
Since this question will almost invariably come up, I will state that a townie modkill today will end the day. (Obviously, a scum modkill will end the game.)
-
Spectator concern, if I'm not missing something...: If the scum is someone besides Shaggy, then an inactive Shaggy makes this scum unlynchable today, so ending the day with his modkill (as will happen short of a mislynch) means that scum would then win.
-
That is the idea behind ending the day if a townie is modkilled due to inactivity, yes. Hopefully this will encourage participation from all parties.
Of course, there is always the possibility that scenarios eluded to in Post 169 play out, so.
EDIT: Typo fix.
-
Just leaving a note ahead of time. Gonna be busy with school and afterschool events Monday + Tuesday. Will hopefully find time to say at least something. Though, I'm kinda against the day ending if Shaggy gets modkilled. I'd like to request that if Shaggy gets modkilled, and isn't scum, we continue the day. I'd feel incredibly cheated if the town lost simply because of one person's activity.
Also: Events in reply #169 will never happen, provided the scum have any sense whatsoever. Why would they lead a mislynch, and then forgo winning the game to attack the bulletproof? Especially since that kinda gives the bulletproof an edge, as it says "Yeah, he's town." And it draws it into a battle royal between the other two, with the bulletproof being the deciding factor.
Agh. Too much head-hurting for so little sleep. Night.

(http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/8059/413s.jpg)
Jack is around periodically, but can't really do much more yet when no one else has done more than role claim so far today.
It's a little concerning that, assuming scumShaggy, he could now safely claim mostly whatever he wants, but then the role set up is a little surprising.
-
Considering it's Tracker, Single-shot Vig, and bulletproof vs. rolecop and roleblocker and who knows what else? Set-up seems decidedly one-sided.
-
We have not had the time available we would like to have. As such, our investigation is not done.
I asked because the Sith doubt your claim, Hank Hill. You assert you were attempting to catch scum's eyes all game, but ducked suspiciously low on our radar and, so the Sith imagine, others' radars as well.
As such, we reasoned that if you were Bulletproof Town, the announcement would have been (potential) LYLO from the start- Word of god makes us now doubt whether our theory there is correct.
The Sith look mainly towards Hank Hill for now, although we cannot say either Jack or Shaggy are clear to us.
We second the call to allow us continue the game if Shaggy is town and gets modkilled.
-
I "ducked suspiciously low," Mr. Dooku, because I had things to do. Like work, and taking care of my family, and cheering on the Dallas Cowboys. I tried to post when I could, and when I had something to say.
As it stands, I see no reason to doubt my claim. Not only did God say that it would, in fact, be (potential) LYLO, but I also do not see a point of having a rolecop and a roleblocker working together if not to sniff out my propane like a bloodhound, and then to take me out before I can make it to the safety of work.
I believe we are now staring each other eye-to-eye, Mr. Dooku, as I simply can't stand liars.
-
(http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/9198/63sf.jpg)
The plan is likewise appealing, and I would recommend to Shaggy in this case that, unless you have an investigative power (seems unlikely) with information, it would be in town's best interests for you to follow your cowardly instincts and not appear again, as we hit scum at best or gain an extra chance to hit scum at worst.
With warning ahead of this potential plan, avatar of evil, I'm far more likely to turn my head to you than to Hank at this point should Shaggy modkill town (which I really doubt, but still). Hank's Crocker placement is stronger, and I feel greater unease about your early play.
Ninja'd by Hank: just how did the avatar of evil lie? I don't see it.
-
Mr. Dooku claims that my role claim would only be valid if...
As such, we reasoned that if you were Bulletproof Town, the announcement would have been (potential) LYLO from the start- Word of god makes us now doubt whether our theory there is correct.
That is a silly thing to say, as if that had been declared from the start, then it would have been obvious there had been a role like that in the mix.
-
The cause of your low profile is none of our concern. We are concerned with your claim of attempting to attract scum eyes all game.
The quoted part is not a lie, it is a hypothesis. It tied into your claim of attempting to attract scum eyes all game, as you did no such thing to our eyes. Never did I assert your claim would hold validity only if the condition I suggested was met.
-
Ahh. Then I apologize for my rude behavior, Mr. Dooku. Will you please forgive me?
-
Maybe.
-
Okay, I'll make this deal. If Shaggy is town and gets modkilled for inactivity, I will only end the day if I see the Last Activity time for the user behind Shaggy has changed from what it is right now.
-
Shaggy has explained his emergency situation in recent days to me. I am shutting the modkill timer off.
-
Can we be given the same explanation?
-
Cross-state family emergency.
-
Ugh.
Shaggy has been modkilled at his request. He was Town. Full flip will not come until the game has ended, however.
Vote count would be reset, but, well.
-
(http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/9720/25ssq.jpg)
Well.
Uh.
Thanks, Shaggy - that makes a huge difference. I was just about absolutely convinced it was you when the modkill timer was dropped, so had you come back I doubt you'd have been able to shake me off.
Otherwise great, I was wrong and fell for the obvious trap. My confidence is shot out now that I have to find scum on the Crocker train, but as per my previous re-reading I find myself far more doubtful of Dooku than Hank. Let me know if you want this summed up again or have anything else to question me about, as I have little to do here otherwise until you make your final day cases. Certainly not considering placing my vote before then, at least.
-
The speed at which this game moves is unstimulating.
We have observed both contestants for the noose, and have here our findings:
Jack has been worrisome in his attempts earlier this day. When Shaggy was still a contestant for the noose, he made arguments as to why both Hank and I are unlikely to be scum- as scum, such a ploy could be used to garner sympathy from town. Regardless.
His behaviour Day 1, which the Sith had come to pass off as innocent seems less innocent now. When we queried his reasoning for voting Suzumiya, and what other alternatives he would have suggested for her to take, he brushed off our inquiry, stating it made us suspicious to his eyes. And, though he maintains this point throughout the game, never once does his suspicion slide into the realm of actively accusing the Sith of something. At least, not to such extent that it has ever been worthy of discussion.
A charge he puts forward against us is that we 'set up a vote swap'. The Sith felt at that moment that Lightyear may have pressed the jokephase too hard- we mentioned we felt he had enough pressure on him as yet. Therefore, we find this accusation to be a jumped conclusion without observance to our intent.
His focus of "those who are on Crocker are likely town" seemed acceptable at the time, but now again raises our hackles.
Should it be said that it is alarming that Hank Hill has little against him... on account of having posted little? We do, however, worry for his innocence as well- perhaps greater than with Jack.
While Jack accuses the Sith of tunneling on the first Day, the Sith can hold that same charge against Hank Hill for the second day. That his vote was on someone who turned out scum is not important- in the end, one of us three is scum, and all three were on that train. However, Hank Hill has said nothing whatsoever about any of the other cases, and has made no attempt whatsoever to highlight himself in any way whatsoever. If you recall, we took issue with his claim of "trying to attract scum eyes all game", as he has done nothing to mark himself a dangerous individual from our point of view.
In summation, Hill got on the Crocker train without bothering to examine any of the other cases. At that point, Crocker was already looking bad- I believe you can agree with us that Crocker's behaviour would, sooner or later, have been cause for worry among more, given his manner of participation. The Sith do not rule out the possibility of an early bus precisely to gain town cred- as we know the Sith are innocent, we now know this gambit has been employed. Our worry lies greater with Hill than with Jack for this, as Jack has argued more against Crocker than Hill has.
Mis-reading what we have said and construing it as a lie seems odd to us as well. We are also... suspicious of this:That is a silly thing to say, as if that had been declared from the start, then it would have been obvious there had been a role like that in the mix.
While it treads into game discussion, if the mod would have declared LYLO and, in fact, it was not LYLO, then the mod would have led town by the nose and lied.
As a result, the Sith hypothesise that the scum could not possibly fumble their kill. This, and the fact we are sufficiently suspicious of Hank Hill for the listed aggravations makes that we are willing to execute him as the last Eraser.
We will be voting Hank Hill in twenty minutes.

Final Votecount:
Hank Hill (2): Count Dookie, Jack from Fight Club
HANK WAS TOWN
JACK WAS SCUM
SCUM WIN
EPIC PHAIL
but massive lulz
-
/me applauds Jack. I know it can't be the Ciddy, but it almost -has- to.
Granted, I'm not sure how could town ever win with NOBODY SHOWING UP EVER. This was the lurkertasticiest (shut up) game I've ever seen.
And, as usual, props for Haruhi. You made the game by existing.
-
Not me. I don't really do mafia these days.
-
I thought Jack screamed Lady Door's manslave myself.
-
It was clearly Super and his masterful mafia talents
-
Not me. I don't really do mafia these days.
I know (funny how your lack of things to do makes you less inclined to play), but you're like one of the best scummies I know in the DL as well. It's fun.
Also, I think a loligoth just turned into a fat old man named Marvin from OK's scumaielman hype.
-
Like I have the mental energy to even closely read a mafia topic, let alone play.
And yeah, it was hard to get reads on people with the amount of lurking going on with the reading I did do.
-
Not me. I don't really do mafia these days.
I know (funny how your lack of things to do makes you less inclined to play)
Because it turns into an all-consuming obsession on slow days (and needless to say, that is what all of them have been this year).
-
Huh, wish I could honestly say I was surprised scum won, but, well. Mad props, Jack. You earned this one.
-
Life interferes with games of mafia far too much.
Props to Jack.

Night 1
Scum kill: Haruhi
Scum roleblock: Dooku (Failed, vanilla)
Scum rolecop: Hank (Result: Town Bulletproof)
Tracker target: Cosgrove (Result: None)
Night 2
Scum kill: Cosgrove (Jack)
Scum roleblock: Sylvester (Success)
Tracker target: Filburt (Blocked!)
Night 3
Scum kill: Sylvester
Tracker target: Hank Hill (Killed!)
Excal and Xanth correctly guessed on Day 1 that Roukanken was an active power role and the only reason they didn't kill him (even thinking he was Alex at the time!) was because of how frightening the real Alex was. The best part of this was pre-game in the scum chat:
[13:39:45] <Xanth> Oh, and I'm totally calling NK1 Haruhi Suzumiya, by the way.
[13:40:08] <Xanth> By which I mean sure, we'll actually do something sensible, but that's my prediction for who I'll want dead.
[13:40:25] <Xanth> Being the role I both like and expect to be done badly.
[13:41:27] <Xanth> Oh.
[13:41:28] <Xanth> There we go.
[13:41:30] <Xanth> Speak of the devil.
[13:42:19] <Xanth> Not only confirming directly in the thread, but urge to kill rising from one word alone.
Scum had a Rolecop, Roleblocker and Vanilla Goon. Town has a BP, a Tracker and a One-Shot Vig, as you might have guessed from the flips. The BP was rendered immediately ineffectual, of course, thanks to the rolecop.
Credit to Xanth for hanging in there in the face of overwhelming apathy. Credit to Alex for making this game worth watching. Credit to Roukanken for a pretty impressive performance, even in this environment. I felt very proud reading the guesses people submitted for you, as well as scum's paranoia over you in the scum chat.
I have nothing else to say - the game speaks for itself.
-
Oh, I suppose I should credit everyone for some fine roleplaying, too. As much as there was.

Excal: 0/3

At least I can claim being awesome at something this game!
-
Bwahaha to OK as Shaggy. Makes too much sense.
-
Oh, and BRAVO to Xanth. You are fabulous at being scum. (Scawy.)
-
Nice. Agree with handing lots of credit to Xanth (who was really obviously the one playing Jack). I think scum wins tend to be one of two types: scum perfect the game as town gets ensnared in massive town-town disputes, or else one scum hides as a perfect townie and solos while bussing his teammates. In a game like this, with lots of extremely lynchable targets... yeah, simply being a good townie with established credentials from bussing Crocker on Day 2 is a really solid defense. The little recap of everyone's interactions with scum on the last day was an especially nice touch. Sadly for Evil Jack I suspect that Haruhi is just going to reboot the world because this one clearly sucks, but so it goes. At least as a time travelling samurai his odds of survival in the new world are pretty good.
Setup does seem to favor scum a bit? Tracker's a pretty unreliable power role and both blocker and rolecop were useful for scum. Though obviously Town had bigger problems this game regardless with the modkills meaning fewer lynches to get information from.
And as usual, tip o' the hat to Haruhi. Sylvester's anti-lisping pills from ACME as a reward for years as a loyal customer was also pretty dang funny in the role-playing category.
-
I'm very bad with Meta, which is why I never bothered with sending in guesses. Heck, I'm more likely to vote for people who try to have scummy metas.
I wish I was half as good at this as Roukanken is. Why was I nightkilled? Also, out of all of the MotKers here, I thought Kiro was the only other one to sign up :<
-
Just wanted to give some props to Soppy for playing Jay.
-
Yeah, near the end of it I was like, "fuckit I want the game to mooooooooooove" and initially wanted to vote Jack, but then I found the entire OMG YOU ARE LYING DOOKU and everything and I coin tossed.
:( Man, I suck at endgame.
-
Yeah, sorry about that. I was really into it too, but I just kinda got sick and fell into one of my worst sleeping patterns, so my brain was just utterly fried for a long period of time after Day 1. Tried my best though, as I freaking love the Critic.
I was sad that Excal seemed to never have seen Rocko's Modern Life though.
-
Wall of text for the scum point of view for those who care.
Funnily enough, I cocked my game plan up horribly and only felt comfortable acting as scummy as I did by filtering in a ton of misdirection. I would've had to play completely differently if not for the mass inactivity. Apologies to Excal/Filburt for repeatedly getting in his way.
My general plan from the start was to be a town leader with just enough suspicion against him that it wouldn't turn heads that I'd still be alive, but not enough suspicion to get copped (or, in this case, tracked - practically the same thing when you're the goon on the kill). This almost worked day 1, but only Dooku took my bait and then made a terrible case out of it. Day 1 was looking fine for us in general with a few potential lynches and the low activity making it a total crapshoot (and harder to draw anything on day 2) until Haruhi hit. She shot herself in the foot somewhat by setting up this irritating and useless persona from the first few posts, as that stopped a bunch of people from reading into the incisiveness that then flowed, because Crocker fell right into that trap but only scumFilburt backed her up on that. But hey, distraction arrives in the form of Buzz, lead the wagon, collect lynch. I tend to act a little bit oddly at times like just before lynching town because it seems to throw some people's scumdars way off.
For night 1, we spent ages deliberating the pros and cons of various plans, in that we really needed Haruhi dead but were wondering whether the doctor would have seen through the veil and saw how important she was or just thought she was a bit of a nuisance. We knew that Sylvester had an active role and so was the other choice for that night kill, but decided that Haruhi was just too dangerous and that it was worth taking a risk (with the bonus that she liked me at her time of death, in case people did start reading into her thoughts deeply). Dooku was then roleblocked just in case he was the cop and went for me (as Sylvester, as much as he looked most likely to be cop, was far more likely to blow it on town), and Hank rolecopped on account of being another prominent town figure who'd probably be in for a while. Sylvester was then the plan for NK2 for obvious reasons.
I knew we were killing the star of the game, but a huge sigh of relief went around as Haruhi's kill was confirmed as day 2 started. I jumped on Crocker immediately as I was sure that someone re-reading Haruhi's case on him would pick that up, but that paranoia was a terrible screw up as I'd forgotten that Filburt had been on him yesterday and would then need an excuse to vote elsewhere, which he did by reading too much into Coop's slip up. The day 2 plan hadn't been to bus Crocker at all - it had been to address the case against him in a controlled environment and defuse the charges, eventually moving elsewhere as another distraction showed up. Trouble was, Crocker only managed to dig his hole deeper and I had no chance to get off of him, and the inactivity eventually just led it down one path. A lot of my paranoid long term plans involved having rolecop for two nights, so I got back to pointless levels of despair at that point.
For night 2 the kill basically had to come from the Crocker train as the obvious angle to push is that people on it were highly likely to be innocent and wanted the kill to highlight this more so. As the choices were me, the bulletproof, Cosgrove and Dooku, it was between the latter two. Cosgrove had been absent for ages but had returned and was showing signs of being very competent, with bonus points that he'd only observed half of the players and that the kill could look like rolefishing (not that anyone reads much into night kills, I know). Again, felt bad that we were snuffing activity from town, but that's kind of what we're supposed to do. Oh, and because Sylvester escaped the night kill again, he got the role block this time.
Day 3 was basically the time to cash in lurker points and polish my unintentional bussing for all that it was worth now that it had happened. The entire day revolved around Coop and Bender, with a side of Shaggy, which I was perfectly happy for it to do knowing that they were all town. Threw in some suspicion on Sylvester in the meantime just to make it look like I was actually trying and not just following the easy cases, but it's not like it stopped most other players. Obviously I didn't know that Bender was going to get modkilled, but I didn't know until late in day 3 that Filburt was going either (Excal had been having connection problems earlier, but didn't expect them to last so long), so I had been trying to work out my end game strategy on an expectation of five days, not four. In any case, even with Bender's modkill no one seemed to care much about non-lurkers, so Coop was just stuck there by the end.
Night 3 left me with another bucket load of worry, as the natural NK would have been Dooku (Crocker train but not bulletproof - else Hank would have been top to go), but unless Sylvester copped (still thought he was cop) my night kill we'd be hitting LYLO with too much information on the table, whereas the problem with killing Sylvester is that it only left one real lynch target - Shaggy - which I felt was far more likely to make people scratch their heads and look at me than if there had been two targets to argue over. The tipping factor was that I was still scared of a doctor (I'd been pretty confident that Bender was the doctor based on his actions, but that theory had just been shot out), and that while they may protect Dooku, they were very unlikely to protect Sylvester, so that's the way I went.
My initial plan for day 4 was to turn the one target situation into a two target one - misdirect Shaggy into voting for Dooku, see which way Hank fell and then follow him, although after putting my strength behind the Shaggy case just to keep safe-footed. Then after nothing followed we hit the plan of modkilling Shaggy without the game ending, which buggered me up a ton, but decided I may as well play on hard mode and get a lynch from the Crocker train that wasn't me, so made sure that I looked like I was munching the situation for town's benefit the most. I also felt okay about that by then anyhow, as Dooku and Hank had already had a spat, and I was sure that the poison I'd been leaking about Dooku would be enough to get Hank to vote for him over me. The most obviously stupid thing I had to do was support Dooku's Crocker vote alibi, not because it reduced my potential targets, but because I'd been so heavy-handed in painting that train as purely innocent to keep attention away from me that I'd completely failed to spot that yeah, it would have been a really simple scumDooku move in that position, and I somehow had to be consistent on that, but felt it read absolutely terribly. Also managed to get away with the fact that Crocker had spent the entirety of day 1 and most of day 2 buddying up to both me and Filburt, and some of the weird interaction between me and Filburt by shuffling it away behind the far more conspicuous Crocker-Dooku pairing, and no one really checked up on what I was saying. I didn't expect Dooku to crack and vote for Hank - it was the reverse vote that I'd spent ages working on so I would have been fine if Dooku had voted for me instead (if still suffering from a constant panic attack in the interim) - but hey, a win's a win.
Apologies to the active part of town - the complete lack of activity was terrible for all of us. Condolences to Kilga, who did absolutely nothing wrong with the set up to deserve this.
Mage: other than your later disappearance, well done, you seemed to play a whole lot better this time. As noted during the game, you could do with leading a bit more and following a little less, but admittedly this time your one case starter was against town and sticking to your guns in following my day 2 case netted scum, so who knows.
Zakeri: your day 2 insight made it look like you were going to have a scary day 3 where you either got us or would have thrown us a lot closer to lynching. You might not think so, but it was basically simply because you were the scariest looking townie from scum's perspective.
Alex: sorry man, sorry. Just wish we could have got away with not killing you.
-
Bwahaha to OK as Shaggy. Makes too much sense.
Really? Does it? How so?
So yeah...I really have been in the mood to play recently, so when Shaggy disappeared, I figured I'd be good to go in to it. And I actually have free time, so it was doable. Unfortunately, as alluded to, I did have something pop up family-wise I had to rush out and take care of this past weekend. I had left when it was dead quiet and Night 3 was still on for >24 hours. Unfortunately, it was Monday when I finally got a chance to check back in. I wanted to get back in, but...man. Kind of hard to concentrate when your girlfriend is robbed (thankfully, nothing major - they took her purse, which was empty at the time, and nothing else - it's still traumatizing), your aunt and uncle get divorced (requiring you to go home to help with something as an independent family member, since no one else is around!), and your grandmother is hospitalized from a fainting spell because of said divorce and may need a hip replacement. Faaaaaaabluous weekend, that I am thankful is over (and taken care of, finally - lasted less time than I thought it would). I asked Kilga to kill me off, since I just couldn't concentrate on the game, and figured I'd explode or something and fuck town over. Since I was probably top on the chopping block, this worked out best, I think - gave town a 1/3 chance to kill scum, which was better than 1/4. Still hated doing it, and am completely, completely sorry about the end of that.
That said...I prefer the anonymous set-ups. Game...was hurt by inactivity, which I agree was sucky, but I was also a part of near the end, so...yeah.
I...would not have guessed Jack was scum...very well-played. I was edging on Hank myself. Not really sure if I can talk about how I played, due to the nature of the game. I really did believe Coop was scum, and figured on Filburt myself, actually (who thankfully(?) modkilled anyway), then Hank. But damn...nice job Jack.
Also, great job Kilga - definitely a very good first Mafia for you. >_>
...bleh, I feel like I should comment on my playing and overall playing, but outside of Jack (and Sylvester - great job on your end too) having done awesome and people not being around much, I don't have much to say.
-
Also, great job Kilga - definitely a very good first Mafia for you. >_>
So that game is now officially non-canon? Fair enough.
-
What game? <_<
-
0/13 guesses. Derp.
The roleplaying was pretty fun to read throughout the game. Didn't follow the arguments as much, but Jack/Xanth definitely looked like a committed player which certainly kept him alive in a game full of modkills. I thought Sylvester's/Rou's lisp was great; I can't imagine trying to type up all that, but in retrospect, you would indeed be creative enough to do all that. The Haruhi was extreme so I imagined it'd be a naturally crazy player, but I underestimated a relatively sane player going crazy.
I thought Tom wouldn't play this game because he's waiting for people for TF2. *shrug*
-
Just read through the last little section I'd missed and the post-game. Maaan. Xanth, that was some epic play. I'd've never seen scumJack from the parts I read. Reading the scum gameplan there, I can definitely see where it came from, but it's amazing seeing how much the scum plan changed to consider the modkills. Still, nicely played to all of you, congrats. ;p
Also, want to congratulate Alex and Rou for brilliant posting styles, and Bard, Keri and Xanth for amazing roleplaying (at least early-game, for the latter two.)
And OK as Shaggy -does- work scarily well, although I'm not really sure why. XD
What with the activity here, a Town win would have been a miracle, but the game did seem a little unbalanced. I think it's mostly the combination of Rolecop and Roleblocker effectively eliminating two players per night for every night past the first.
-
I'd never even heard of Dooku before this game began. >>;
I don't think the double-scum powerrole was too overpowering. It made Jack paranoid we actually had something worthwhile among our ranks.
-
Using the crappy Lucas version of Dooku and not the awesome Tartovsky version was sacriledge.
-
Yes, Mr. Sherman. Everything stinks.
-
Using the crappy Lucas version of Dooku and not the awesome Tartovsky version was sacriledge.
Blame Kilga!
-
Yes, Mr. Sherman. Everything stinks.
Yeaaaah. I was psyched about playing Sherman too. I put a lot of love into those few posts. But by the next day I was so sick and mindfried that I could barely even follow a post, let alone roleplay.
-
I don't think the double-scum powerrole was too overpowering. It made Jack paranoid we actually had something worthwhile among our ranks.
You had two worthwhile things in your ranks! It's just that one got themselves lynched D1 and the other made themselves a roleblock magnet.
Xanth was constantly shitripped about the possibility of a doc, though.
-
Tho wait, can I thtop now? It'th over?
...
About time. That lisp takes an age to actually write. -_-;
So yeah, I don't really understand why I'm getting applauded given that, as usual, I was on every wrong lynch. I jumped between Buzz and Haruhi Day 1, then stuck on Bender Days 2 and 3. In LYLO I doubt I'd have been any more helpful, since Jack was the one person I genuinely trusted. (On that note, congrats to Xanth for playing amazingly. Never would have guessed.)
But yeah, at least I got the lisp down. >_>
