I'm still not sure about the second kill. Normal was under suspicion. If I were vig I might have chosen either him or Mort. If I were an SK, I would have tried to kill scum today, or at least to kill someone town considered possible scum. Either way Normal fit the bill.

FoS Irre. The fact that scum left her alone yesterday, despite the possibility she could clear some more players is odd. In retrospect, MZ did drop some special tells, but it's still odd to me that Irre wasn't targeted.

BTW I have said I can't clear any more players.

And you think scum would assume that's true?

well, anyway, looking back at MZ's posts yesterday I can see why he stood out as a possible seer. Which lowers my suspicion of you.

It's still curious to me that you immediately leaped on Ani in this game for essentially the same behavior that you tried to protect in the boy bands game.

I voted ani just briefly at the start of the game, to poke him with a stick, to see how he'd react. I too wondered if he was a special, hence I'm not going to vote him. But he's not being very helpful to town.

"hence i'm not going to vote him"? Present tense? I thought we'd established we were fresh out of townspecials?

Ani if you're town then you are not playing very well and you're not playing very hard. However i don't entirely discount your theory that oblivion is the SK.

christ on a pogo-stick!
town are being raped this game and one, i believe, plausible explanation for this is that the very people seemingly playing town are the rapists.

You read it wrong, or i wrote it wrong. My amnesty on ani is well over. Seems it only takes one vote from oblivion for ani's play to snap back to what I'm used to seeing.

Ani, comment on all the players. Your silence on feck this game is nothing short of astonishing.

[irretating]

Is my bedtime. Back in 8 hrs or so.

[Animavore]

i simply don't have a read on feck. i didn't even realise he was up for scrutiny
That might be a bad sign, thinking about it

[Feck]

And I think you might be a SK Ani . Or Oblivion ?

[Animavore]

if i'm the sk then why is dp still alive? :twisted:
speaking of which, dp is my other choice for sk, but i think definitely scum.

[Callan]

it's quite amusing that people are trying to say i'm not playing town, yet look at their track record! i think we need to start looking at those we've most trusted.

Don't include me in that "we", please.
I've been asking and asking why irre seems to be the Chosen One on no better evidence than "self-clearing", and all I've got for my pains is some carefully-manipulative fingers of suspicion.
She was saved (I'm still not quite sure how) from the lynch on Day One at considerable cost to town.
She's been demanding everyone out their roles to her, and confess what objects they're carrying, claiming she "knows" some objects are powerless and will clear vanilla townies.
Then no sooner does MZ - the bloke she asked us to believe she "trusted" most - finally out himself as Chief Wiggum, he winds up dead. Holding the ammo that irre claimed she KNEW wasn't an indicator of special powers.

I think irre's investigations have gifted the game to scum.

Vote irre

[mononoke]

What a mess!

I'm going to be back in an hour and read through entire bloody game and try and figure out head from toe

[DennyB]

Did anyone else get an odd PM from the GM this morning?
I am quite hesitant to give any info as I have no idea what it meens and I fear scum might.
I'm also wondering if scum/sk needed MZ's ammo to continue to do kills.
If thats the case then irre looks very sus.
What a WIFOM mess.

Scum is playing very well

Vote DP

This should be helpful.

OB, I'ts day 3 and all we have done is hit specials. Your play is better than that. fos

[Don't Panic]

Here's two posts from DP that ping for me:

Subject: Simpsons Day 2

it's not about character claims

!!!!

....an 'oh, shit' moment where he realised he bluffed wrongly?

Subject: Simpsons Day 2

One last thought before bed kids,

Zig seems to be staying canonical with this game, that means if there is a sideshow bob indie his win condition is likely to be killing Bart, that means Bart needs to be protected tonight.

...muddy the waters, as scum like to do?

The first one was a clue Irre, in case Zig made the all the town role PMs very similar, the 'item' I had according to my role PM was blue hair, that was why I posted it.

The second was a thought that occurred to me just before going to bed, in the first iteration of the last game someone had the win condition of finding a specific character.

I'd like to paste the list i made late last night when i was drunk and tired

Subject: Simpsons Day 2

This is my effort at a town > scum spectrum, mainly based on heursistic townpings

Charlou - town
Callan - town
Feck - townly
Oblivion - townish
DennyB
Normal
Mantisdreamz
Mononoke
UT
Morticia
DontPanic

Animavore - indie

MZ - depends
Irre - depends

Worth noting that DP never pinged for me but still ended up way down the list of probable townsters.

[gib]

no revenge necessary. you and irre are top of my list.

So oblivion is top of your list, so is irre, so am i and so is DP. What kind of lame ass list is that?

I'm never a likely town player, I had a run of scum games up until recently, and even when I'm town, I don't seem to be pro-town. It's a bit of a catch-22.

It may actually be a good idea to lynch me today since it will force the players who are intent on insisting I'm scum to actually start scum hunting tomorrow. I'm more of a hindrance to town at the moment while I'm alive.
