    I sense possible allusions to real life in this write-up.

    Several times daily, without fail.


    Curse the store that makes 10 dollar pizza plus 10 dollar pizza plus 2.50 delivery plus sales tax end up with a .97 on the end of the price.... didn't they realize that the number would make up about half of their order totals, and people will just leave the pennies? Argh and harrumph.

    I'm fine with lynching classical_hero. His posts so far have not been much helpful.

    Today, he "votes" for Zack when he's been voting the other way for two days (in the Fluffy vs Zack debate), again without giving a reason. (I'm reading this as a failed vote because of the CFC voting format, where c_h plays a lot).
    Arguably the case isn't much, but it's perfect if you're looking for someone who appears to be doing just enough not to be lurking (voting every day, posting a little). But he's really not useful.

    vote: classical_hero

    I'm also suspicious of Csargo for his overall work so far.

    Day 2, voting Renata to create a 4 way tie (Renata 3, Zack 3, Fluffy 3, Khazaar). I'll give him that creating a tie, with strategic reasons in mind, could be useful

    Unvote:, Vote: Zack
    Still Day 2, unvotes Renata to vote Zack. Tally is now Zack 4, Khazaar 4, Renata 3, Fluffy 3. I would have liked to know why he moved his vote.
    Also, "Back in my days..." post #4.

    "Back in my days..." post #5.

    That last post was made 15 minutes after the Day 3 writeup, a day in which he didn't participate to the voting, yet he's posting quickly soon after. It makes me wonder if the no-vote was made on purpose. If I am right about slashandburn being Town (because he didn't defend himself, and nobody else did), then it makes sense that the Scum wouldn't care about yesterday's lynch (only Zack and slashandburn were really threatened).

    And what's up with all these "Back in my days" posts? I get that this may be soft claiming: Grandpa maybe? I'm really not a Simpson fan enough to know which character keeps repeating this over and over, and I watched the show in French, when I did. Anyway, if this is soft claiming, I think he's insisting a little much. Could be that he's saying "look, I'm not scum, I am this guy (Grandpa?)". Since I'd be surprised if the game could be broken by claiming, it makes me wonder if Csargo is really roleplaying, or if he's using it as a pretext to look innocent.

    Marge isn't exactly an obvious bulletproof (though my role was more or less guessable), so it's possible.

    hmm.. I will take a closer look at the game later on..
    But Romanic sums up my immediate thoughts on, who to lynch.. However there are two people missing and those are Yarapolk and pevergreen.. pevergreen has been gone from the game entirely, which is a bit strange concidered his activity elsewhere.. I don't know what it suggests though.. I don't know him very well, so any opinion on that matter would be nice :)

    What prompted this reply? I'm not following you.

    Csargo is basically claiming Granpda - a lot of people are playing their characters, and I don't find it suspicious.
    vote: classical for the 15 min after close vote.

    If you don't know who my character is after my second vote on Fluffy, then we deserve to lose.

    I'm roleplaying an old person. I'm doing it because I thought it would be funny. No one seems to think it is and ATPG keeps out doing me. >:(

    This isn't out of the ordinary for classical_hero to act this way. Sorry, but not much time to say anything else; company's over.
