A vote for the lurker Vote: YLC

Does anyone else find this post scummy as hell?

A vote for a lurker when there's two or three possible lynch candidates? And what's the first part supposed to mean?

Why should I reveal their identity? They've been protecting pevergreen and losing them means losing someone with what I assume is a decent amount of strength.

(I know you whined and whined to pever about me in private, major loss of respect there

).

PM'd you about this.

Diamondeye appears as good as dead, there isn't any use in putting another vote on him.

Yaropolk is DE's candidate and since I suspect DE, I am hardly likely to vote for his candidate.

I would like to think that you, Secura, are innocent since you are desperately trying to save face...

And I hate... HATE lurker victories, so I am spectating, showing my activity and putting my vote on the lurker.

Also awaiting some sort of correspondence or order from pevergreen since I have only suspicions and he seems to have some intelligence of who is guilty and most worthy of the lynch.

Hint, hint!

What do I need to save face for? I haven't done anything wrong.

While I share this anti-lurker sentiment, YLC hasn't been very active at the Org lately; he managed to narrowly avoid a WoG in Diamondeye's game a few days back and hasn't turned up since... he said he was really busy IRL.

Todays lynch is either whatever is voted for, or you.

I want the strength claims people.

14 claims wanted. I have 9.

Better than I thought.

I think it's you, obviously, the request was rhetorical.

--------

My take on what happened: Diamondeye went to people to try and get a vig hit on me. It would take down a non Mafia (myself and the Mafia know this, you should too, but I don't expect your belief

). However, DE, for whatever reason (a good one is that he is Mafia or becoming Mafia or some other kind of badguy) pulled out. Then he went public that he knew that people wanted to kill me (probably mad that Yaro and Skooma didn't try and kill me, I had pretty tough defenses by the way

). Perhaps so he can distract the town with the lynch of two more 'innocents' (I use that term in a very specific sense in respect to pever; frankly, I hope both Yaro and Skooma die before the game ends, they were willing to kill me, that is reason enough).

Just a reconstruction of what might be going on, and why DE seems to be the best lynch. I am quite out of it now, guys if you want to set a vig group on Reenk, please contact me, so I can be in on it too.

And yet someone reading this thread knows precisely what I'm talking about because they were the one's who sent Diamondeye the message I referred to. :P

You know, Pizza and pever had theorised that of the two mafia, one might have a low strength value as a twist; DE would certainly fit in with such a theory, by setting up two townies for the lynch rather than taking the risk to fight them and possibly lose.

It's like the WIFOM guy in The Princess Bride; why fight with a sword when your wit and cunning are much sharper?

Beskar is being pretty quiet.

I like it though. Let's make it even better tonight?

**pevergreen** · 01-26-2011, 04:55

Orders start tonight.

But yes, those that don't claim will be killed.

Just putting a second explanation up here for later when everyone knows it's the absolute truth...

Diamondeye is extremely annoyed at the way pevergreen and Reenk are running the show, and is briefly overcome with loathe for it after reading the RR-Secura debate. He posts a "If I could vote RR twice I would" and sens Secura a PM which says "should we try a vig hit on RR?". Then, he runs off and when he returns to the game, he's over his annoyment and realizes that as a good townie, we have to behave in accord with peverNaritsugu's whims. To Skooma Addict's awfully vague suggestion that there might be a vig group on RR, he answers as follows...

You can expand upon what this includes without revealing the identities of your compatriots. I am not certain what I will choose.

Since Skooma's PM strongly suggests that he is not merely a vigilante (he calls the group a "band of outlaws"), I don't want to touch it, ever, as it would betray my victory condition. Instead, I stall him to win time.

Next time I log on, the night is over (I don't know this yet as I begin talks with pever). I see that I have a PM from Skooma, basically "it's just me an Yaro" (revealing your mate? Fine), and one from Yaropolk saying "So are we attacking RR or what?".

Here's the catch - pevergreen can confirm this part - I contact pevergreen and suggest that I agree with the two guys and then, secretly send in orders to defend RR instead, thus eliminating two threats in one swoop, instead of having to rat on them. But pevergreen says no, you'll follow orders, and besides, night is already over.

Diamondeye goes to threat and rats out the two scummymcscummies and is bandwagoned to death.

The end of this will prove me wrong. Now, farewell cruel world! Tell the geisha that I will miss them.
