Yeah. I think we might have been dealing with a couple of villagers at the top of the lynch list, but there must have been at least one mafia. Personally, I dislike those who tried to get third party candidates up on the lynch. Smith was not guaranteed to die, but people started just dropping off the front runners and I switched to save Novice since I think he might be useful once he has more time. I'm not calling out those who wanted to get people to at least talk about other candidates, it was those that pushed them out of nowhere that I dislike. Also, I understand that not everyone is on all the time, but it's really frustrating when people who have barely posted and put their votes on people barely halfway through the day end up almost making the difference in a vote.
One of the things you have to anticipate on the org, is that votes are likely to stay where they are at mid-day for about half the players, and that you will have to adjust your style to work with the group of players who post a couple of times per round and vote once.
It's not everyone, but even in the worst case scenario, almost off of those players will be townies and you will need their votes to win the game.
And when you don't get them, you get lynched and then everyone you pointed to as scum or cult turned out to be exactly those things, more or less.
Still, I'm open to pointing fingers into that group. But by now, there's a dozen players who have posted enough that if you're like me and subscribe to the theory that your best scum hunting weapon is reading the readable people who post a lot, that opportunity is now given that it's basically day 3 and we're thousand posts into the game.
ISOs on those people will start overnight and continue d3. Hope others follow suit.

I hope I can be, although frankly the guys with experience from here will probably fare better. I don't think lack of time has held me back so far, sadly this is my A game...

Scumbags from this group will probably be playing against the veterans of this group. See what you see, they don't know how to counter your scum-tells because they don't know what they are.
Don't remember ever seeing this level of investment from Monty. I did miss some games on the site in recent years, so if I am someone has to fill in the details.

You will most likely get more information out of it than if we kept arguing in circles about voting blocks and such, and I am vanilla so I will still be able to post. We do lose one lynch day out of it, but we are frankly probably going to lynch a villager anyway, and at least this way we know we won't lose a poster. I'm pretty sure this idea is insane levels of crackpot, but I feel like doing something kind of odd. Thoughts?
Bad. If you're town, you're just about always the worst possible lynch because you're the only one you know 100% sure is town. You shouldn't ever offer to lynch yourself.

While I know at some point was tied with novice in the chopping block I still need to read 4/5 pages and I don't have the time right now.
I just didn't realize the day was ending so early or I would have come online. My bad.

I want to go back and look at whoever first started talking about the fact that our d1 eod had to have had scum in it and lynch them.
Crimson, Cuth, Dp101, Stork = non-natives used to much higher posting mafia groups. Still want to give DP pointses for doing so with a group wholly unfamiliar, Crimson and Stork give me the too veteran to give out points for that vibe. Cuth is on too many sites to be rewarded thusly. Let me know if DP is on a ton of sites too. Monty = Not used to seeing him at the very top of the org-native WIM list. He ate his wheaties this morning.
El Barto = Spammy as ever. Content levels will always be low. This is where you find him in the post count list.
Visor = Close to his typical self, and has been mislynched for not giving 110 percent before which is BS. Visor could be lynched on content here though, as opposed to post count. Me = Laughably small post count for me
Novice = not an orgah, no meta that I know. Winston Hughes = also ate his wheaties.
Zack = Game host who has to post vote counts.
Generalhankerchief = not typically a super high poster, cranked up his game for the off site champs series. Can do that if he chooses to.
----------------------------------------------------------- atheotes = everyone below this man's name should have more content/posts that he does, because most of his posts and his post count itself are within his range, but below what I know he's capable of, and way below what most of the rest of you should be capable of.
----------------------------------------------------------
Murska = not ever really a spammer poster.
Pelican = see Murska, content of his posts are decent. Reidquat = Kumquat needs a squash.
Khaan = within his range but would like more content per post. See Pelican for example. Al Sips = Sips needs a straw Spaceman = I've seen you near the top before, I'm sure of it. Why are you down here?
Newyn = need more, know you're capable of it.
Johnhughthom = this is his range
choxorn = this is his range
By content is a different story. Many people not bold orange on post count but should be on content. Also I made my name bold and blue to troll the people who hate that.
Can't do by content for everyone until isos are done.
Pizza, can I just say that you are by far the best player I have ever seen, and I will follow you into (most) things.thanks for posting a bit on how to guide the offsiters to kill the right veterans.
