Welcome gimli. Caught up yet? Odd that you haven't received a role PM when it has been announced that you are replacing... Feel free to give thoughts without the PM.
unvote vote gimli for not contributing more.
ghostly, thanks for the hard deadline.

Ok, first of all, jgordon, please try to stop double posting...and being so crazy!! What I mean is I feel like you are really amped up and just going on a rage when your posting and it makes it difficult to understand quite everything you're saying. Also, for the record, I didn't skim. I'm the first one who questioned you on it. There were multiple people who skimmed, but I'm over it. I believe your claim right now. I still think that if we don't have a great candidate (very, very likely), we lynch jgordon. I don't think those votes will show us anything though. What are you thinking that the votes will show?
Secondly, I called Rodion out and he showed up with a couple of insightful posts, as I expected. However, I still think his play style this game is a little off, even if he did say he was trying to change it up. But I won't push that point.
Next, give chuck a break. This is only his second game and this is a lot. Especially with all of the meta crap going on for no reason. He might be scum, I don't know, but I think we have other things to worry about.
Also, I really, really likes SG7's post when he came back into the game. Go check it out again. Something it opened my eyes to was using a vig on jgordon. As / has already mentioned, the tone of the game suggests that there is a likely a mafia busdriver. Using a vig for a NK is a bad idea because with a mafia busdriver, you will essentially give the mafia two kills at night. The one person who brought it up and pushed for it was pmc. As a self proclaimed veteran, he should have known better and also known what he was doing. My thought: he did know.
FOS pmc.
I buy jak's claim because I have no reason not to. He is most likely the doctor. You can't lynch a claimed doctor on Day 1. Silliest thing to do ever. Also, if there is another doctor, please don't counterclaim right now and expose yourself.
My vote will stay on Doom. Yes, I agreed with what you had to say about you fully exposing jak's claim. However, that doesn't mean you can't be pressured. As stated, at that time, I didn't see anyone else compelling and as I am still looking for scum, I went ahead and pressured someone for information, not for a lynch. My vote will stay until you claim. I think it's odd that pmc advocates you not claiming after previously stating that pressuring someone for claiming was good.
FOS pmc again.
Ragian vs dazza:

There was nothing wrong with that vote except for the fact that he is voting for someone for being inactive when there are plenty of actual cases and other things going on. I mean, what was the point?
Ok, I don't remember what SPART said right now because I read through 7 pages, but I do remember thinking, 'Thanks for nothing.'
I don't think I have anything else to say right now. What do you think about my comments? About pmc's actions? About how great SG7's post was?
P.S. Did I use my FOS's correctly, jgordon?

p.s. please stop with the PR soft claiming ng.
Yeah, your case was crap. I mean part of it was that I said we should lynch jgordon if there is not anyone else inherently scummy. Do you really disagree with that?
Triple FOS pmcAnyway, does no one else think it's extremely odd that jak tries to say he created a BW vote ruse in order to catch scum when he wasn't even the one who started it?! I mean, his analysis of the vote patterns is ok, but if you just look at it, it's taken out of context anyway. You need to see the vote counts on all of the wagons and when the votes were placed to really makes sense of it.
Leehar said it was the same as BW for me to FOS instead of vote.

How is that the same? Day one BWs are good for one thing, IMO, and that is claims and the scumslips that accompany them. Voting patterns on Day 1 are ridiculous. There is way to much stupidity on Day 1 for the voting to be taken that seriously. Almost none of the cases are worth a pile of sh..crap anyway. Name one case that was worthy of anything on a Day 1 that you've played. I can't name any and have only seen scum lynched once and that was a complete fluke.
However, I do like Leehar's back and forth with newguy1. It didn't seem like newguy was overly defensive with what he said, but he made sure and respond very quickly. It seemed like he was trying to get out of something before he was really even in it. All he really needed to do was offer a line of defense and say that everywhere or saf or anyone else looked scummier based on jak's analysis and it would have sufficed because the most votes we can get on anyone in this game is about 5. No one is in danger of being lynched, which is really frustrating because town can't win without lynching. And the biggest part of his defense was that he defended jgordon after jumping off the wagon. Is that even really a defense? You defend someone after you BW them and get them to claim third party. That doesn't seem like much of a defense and I want more.
unvote vote newguy1 (btw, this is a real vote, not a ploy to detect Day 1 BWs. And my goal is information from newguy1 through a claim.)
Anyway, I thought it was odd that pmc told newguy to stop soft claiming. We've already had a lengthy discussion about soft claiming with Doom and jak, so why does pmc feel the need to step in and say this? Either he's trying to get newguy to not make a slip because they are mates or he wanted to bring it out in the open. I noticed no soft claim initially. I will go back and check, but that just seems odd.
About chuck:

I can't believe he got offended when he was picked on. He must be scum...

I feel like he's contributed more than Rodion. I mean, look at Rodion's last post. He was bringing up stuff that had already been talked about and we were through with. What was the point of even making that post? To appear active and townish? That's all it seems like to me. I don't like Rodion's play so far in this game.
I almost agree with saf about simply lynching jgordon or going with a no lynch at this point, but we really only have 2 claims and I would really like to get more information in a game this size.
