    Right now this is Loki II. Luckily, it seems like people are being offed at a slow rate, so I say we lynch Reenk, lynch Tevash, and then put Reenk on ignore. It'll cost us time, but I think we can spare it and it'll help us in the long run when we're not distracted.

    Vote: ATPG

    I would vote Reenk but I am afraid of him spanking me for doing that in nearly everysingle games. So just to show him how much I care for him, ill go for yet another random vote.

    Hmmm, or we could just put Reenk on ignore now... and lynch Tevash today.

    I'll be back later after work to put my 2 cents in.

    Trying to sleep underneath the "maximum super" thorny bush for protection had achieved nothing, for Boudica, other than minimal sleep and maximum bad dreams. Watching the guy known as 'Reenk' run around in circles, with his underpants on his head, had proved a mild panacea from insomnia for a while however, but with that beautiful image full-frontal in her short term memory - she now had to go about her business: Readying yet another breakfast of energy bar crumbled over set yoghurt and try to make some revelationary link from the scribbles on her napkins...

    Current Tally

    Reenk Roink 3 (seireikhaan, TevashSzat, YLC)

    TevashSzat 1 (RR)

    ATPG 1 (187Beefyz)

    First, this is not Loki II except maybe superficially, don't turn into a TinCow or YLC with bad theories.

    Second, Midgard could have went a lot differently had Loki been listened to by the town, no?

    Third, it's extremely poor reasoning to lynch me AND THEN lynch the person I have suggested for a lynch. You don't believe me at all, but better be safe and lynch the guy I say...

    1) He said/she said.

    2) Or, you could have realized your error and been more clear to avoid this mess in the first place.

    3) Actually, it's been a common practice since the early days, especially when there's so much ambiguity involved. I especially subscribe to it, since if there's one thing you should know about me, I always hedge my bets (except in the most drastic of circumstances). Sure, I might not win as much outright, but over time I win more because my losses are minimized.

    I'm sorry, but I just think it's awfully presumptive for you and YLC to call my play "poor" or say I made an "error" when you really have no idea what I am or what I am trying to accomplish. I prefer TinCow's method of disagreement to be quite honest, much more agreeable.

    By the way, number 3 completely dodged my question about the reasoning of going after me and then TeveshSzat, instead answering the question of killing both suspicious ones is the best idea. Two pretty unrelated situations.

    Edit: As I said I'm not worried about my lynching. I've just got some confirmation.

    1) You'll be in for quite a surprise when you attempt it first.
    2) I've clearly accomplished my main goal and at least I hope and think I've in someway accomplished my secondary goal.

    By the way, I will never reveal my primary goal and my secondary goal has already been figured out by somebody and maybe I'll make it clear at the end of the game.

    Unvote: TevashSzat
    Vote: Reenk Roink


    Probably won't be following the thread as closely from now on, though I certainly will read the great write ups by Andres

    Really, there's not much to it. You mention we have no idea what your bests interests are. I agree. But if it's not fully in line with the town's, then why shouldn't you be lynched?

    -edit- dear god, I'm turning into PK.

    And Reenkabassi sent down the tablet with the following mystic words:

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    ...the game had it's origins in a time obscured and the peoples soon advanced methodologies for playing it and by doing this they lost sight of the very nature of the game and failed to realize that their methodologies were devoid of the efficacy that the peoples believed the possessed and so when the inscrutable ones were sent to perform their missions their intentions were not understood by the masses and so the inscrutable ones were met with hostility as the peoples being selfish and self centered were only aware of themselves and only believed that the uncertainty and confusion affected themselves as if they lived in a void apart from the rest...

    Reenk:

    Unless prohibited by the rules, I think you'll have to do a proper, "old-school" reveal. Your veering humor and sense of being "at play" is likely to get you lynched. If you have more to contribute, you'll probably have to pony up on it if you want to get the chance to exercise your powers.

    Otherwise, the town will probably just off you -- even though you may be neutral/vaguely pro-town --- just to reduce ambiguity.

    That's what GH is saying. In fact, were ties resolved by a double-lynch, GH would be happy to take out both suspects in a fueding dyad simultaneously -- and GH's not alone.
