This is what he said:
It's clearly rhetorical, and the unspoken answer is, "Well I'm not, and to prove it here's a vote on you".Quote:

But if it were a scum ruse wouldn't it be smarter to just vote? Resting entirely quiet during a lynch would make him look suspicious. But same as Lazy I don't know him so other players might be better to judge.Quote:

In this case, he is absent and has said not a word except for that bit about playing a game. I could certainly be reading too much into the statement, but even if I'm wrong then the only thing we're left with is GH AWOL without any explanation. That is unusual for him. Unusual is scummy.Quote:

Anyways, the reasoning in decent enough for my vote. Vote: GH
Why don't you think he's mafia?Quote:

Also, GH has been on a glorious quest of which I have been advising. This most likely means he ended up as scum anyways, but oh well. Oh, he also was apparently apartment hunting over the weekend too.
Bleh!
Vote: Xenoneb
Scum GH knows that intentional lurking and avoiding the game will allow him to skip merrily almost all the way through the game, if not completely through the game.
When we badger him about his activity enough, or he nearly gets lynched, he may/may not abruptly and temporarily become more active. That in and of itself may allow him more time, since we are all too forgiving for a bloodthirsty lynch mob.
And if simple apologies and empty promises to behave aren't enough, he'll go into super-GH mode and begin posting like he cares. That, too, will pacify us because we're weak and we're shameful and we deserve to lose if we allow that.
Ergo, lynch GH and he won't need to give us any excuses.
Unvote, vote: GH
Let's make it interesting. I could also go for ACIN again. Really, I'm happy with either death.
Vote: Makrell
Is it hard to walk with balls that large?

Well I wasn't going to vote for GH, preferring an out-and-out lurker like Xenoneb instead, but that is just too much. It seems far too much like you're trying to 'prove' that you're not all that active at the moment by not even responding to the accusations and votes above. Of course, you could actually be temporarily inactive and be about to leap back into the game, but this is the best I've got at present.Quote:

Yeah, vote: GH. Nothing like taunting your accusers...
Voting concluded. Stand by for execution.
4 votes, with 3 on Xenon. Boy oh boy, if GH was scum then Elite Ferret was as well.
Congrats on crippling the Mafia, I suppose. :disappointed:
The Palace - Day 3 - Conclusion
https://i156.photobucket.com/albums/...pse29c8d0a.jpg
Like usual, Don C was very silent during the proceedings.
For some reason, all this silence made the villagers feel uneasy and so they started to vote for the silent ones.
"The silent ones are the most dangerous!" one said.
"Indeed,' another one added, "during my days in the military, the silent ones were the ice cold killers. All veterans know that you don't mess with the silent types."
"I'm not silent!" a silent villager said, "I'm busy with chemistry! You all know Don C always needs good chemists to work in his labs. I'm inventing some new explosive drugs!" After this statement, the scientist villager ran off for yet another crazy experiment. His weird haircut and the black stains on his face, made his claims believable and so attention was shifted to other silent types.
Some of those silent types, stayed silent forf the entire day, just like Don C. Perhaps they were just following their leader? Or were they indeed ice cold killers who weren't impressed fast?
Suddenly, one of the silent types said a few words.
"Aha, it must be him! The pressure is too much. He also has huge testicles. Something must be wrong with that guy."
And so, at the end of the day, the man with the big testicles was brought before Don C.
Don C didn't say a word. He simply nodded. GeneralHankerchief nodded back. Both men were silent and kept staring at each other.
"Boring!" somebody yelled.
"Make him scream! Let us hear his voice. That damnable cold murderer!"
But Don C and the General didn't say a word.
Silently, Don C drew his FN Baracuda. For the occasion, it had a silencer. A silent 'pop' was heard and GH silently fell down, a bullet between his eyes ending his life, but not his silence.

It's night. Night will last for +/- 23 hours. PM's please.
Crap, didn't realize the round was going to end that early.
Anyway, my plan was to post a "defense" so obviously and laughably terrible it would draw people looking for the easy lynch target in - i.e. scum looking to clear the round. There were three people who reacted to this before the round ended - ideally I would have had more time to work with this, but ah well. TinCow's exempt since he was the first person to bring up my lurking in this game, but I'd give Ishmael and BSmith a hard look in future rounds.
-edit- Ishmael in particular. "I wasn't going to vote for GH but-" Excuse excuse. I gave him an easy way out. It's right there in his post.
I have only two things to say to you, GH.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
I am completely at a loss as to how you made this connection...Quote:

Answer in the book states 32.35 min, and that is what I got. If you got that as well, I want to ask how you can get C(t) without having to do the integration.
Consider the circumstances of your lynch.Quote:

That night, El Barto was walking down the dirt roads of the village. He was a bit worried about the recent events, but was confident that Don C would solve all their problems. Those problems were nothing compared to his other problems, anyway.
El Barto was a man who liked gambling. And allthough he had a more than reasonable income, he made a lot of debts. In fact, he didn't just like gambling, he was an addict. And he needed money. Lots of money. And fast.
While he was walking down the dirt roads of the village, thinking about his problems, he saw a large piece of paper. It looked a bit like a map. In fact, it was a map! A very simple one. It showed the village, the river, and in the vicinity of a well known large tree, there was an "X" with "treasure" written next to it.
Could it be true? Could this mean the end of all his problems? He quickly went back home, picked up his shovel and ran towards the spot, the map in his hands.
When he arrived, he took a sip of water, spat in his hands and started. He just kept going and going and didn't notice a dark figure coming near.
"Are you looking for something?" a voice said.
El Barto's heart stopped for a few seconds when hearing that voice.
"You shouldn't sneak up on a man like that. I almost died of a heart attack!"
"That would be most unfortunate," the voice said.
El Barto's greed got the better of him and he stared suspicious at the dark figure.
"Anyway, I would appreciate it if you'd go mind your own business elsewhere. This is my pit, my shovel, I'm digging."
"Digging your own grave?"
"No, I'm looking for... But it doesn't concern you. Just go away."
"You're at approximately six feet," the man said.
"Just go awa..."
Two bullets from a silenced gun hit El Barto's kneecaps and he collapsed, screaming in agony.
The dark figure came near and picked up the shovel.
"I've once been told that being buried alive is one of the most awful ways to die. A pity you won't be able to tell me about the experience..."issaikhaan was in excellent shape. He had been working out for a few hours and has just finished patrolling. He finally had some time for his own now and he would use it to play his favourite computer game: Rome : Total War. He switched on his computer and went to an obscure forum to look for tips. As soon as he mentioned the game R:TW, a few elitists posted about how idiotic that game was and how the even older games M:TW and S:TW were so much better and only idiots played R:TW. After getting an infraction point in a heated discussion about the AI, issaikhaan finally had enough and challenged one of the so-called elitists to face him in a R:TW MP battle.
***
"Allright," the other person on the internet said, "let's do this. I guarantee you'll lose so hard, that you'll literally explode from anger."
And so it happened. issaikhaan positioned his troops cowardly on one corner of the map, on a hill.
His opponent marched his army closer, constantly insulting 'khaan with words like "noob" and "Heineken-lover".
Sweat was dripping from issaikhaan's head while he was trying very hard not to start screaming against his monitor. He didn't like being insulted.
His opponent came near and used tactics issaikhaan never would've thought about and he was destroyed in seconds. It was a very humiliating defeat and issaikhaan couldn't help himself and started to scream and yell against his computer, ramming his keyboard, spouting out obscenities with no end and almost dieing at a heart attack. When he stood up to throw his keyboard into his monitor, he triggered the C4 attached to his desk.

The Palace - Day 4
https://i156.photobucket.com/albums/...pse29c8d0a.jpg
Don C stood in front of the villagers.
"Greed and computer games, my friends, are our doom. Greed and violent computer games will cause our downfall. A treasure hunter and a fan of violent video games died tonight. This cannot be a coincidence! Greed and computer games! From now on and until we found the murderers among us, computer games and treasure hunting are strictly forbidden!"
With those historic words, Don C sat down in his comfortable chair, a cigar in his left hand, a bottle of his favourite whisky in his other hand.

You did that on purpose, Andres.
Also, y'all should vote for The Flax.
