Chaore is doing that thing where he kind of just vanishes. I thought his posts were decent enough up until this one.
Looking back, he's not said much about current issues for a while now, excepting a little about the box, a short jab at capt. h and of course his case on BT.
Don't like it. As in beginning to think it looks scummy.

@Omba: Affinity is still in charge of the box. Speculating seems pointless.
Also, pre-empting this before it becomes an issue: I'm generally more conservative with my vote.

Answering to questions not so much, plus it's not like we couldn't force Affinity to use the box as we see fit under threat of getting lynched; though I think doing so would be a bad idea. For that matter, why specifically address me when I hadn't said anything about what to do with the box for a long time until K4u brought it up again?
Furthermore, you're not being conservative with your vote, you're not doing anything with it at all. Or anything, really. I still have no idea who you think is scum, might be scum, or at least could perhaps maybe be scum, except for maybe perhaps Dan, judging by this post of yours. Which is really really bad. It's quite possible that there will be a lynch in approximately 6 1/2 hours and I have no idea whom you want lynched and who's lynch you're opposed to, if any. You're not doing anything to help town and you're not revealing anything about yourself, either.

And yes, Omba, the bit about adding the explanation to your case after the case seems scummy because you had no reason to not include it originally, and in my opinion you simply thought of the explanation later, making your vote pretty damn weak.

Err... Actually I did have a reason, in that I thought it was obvious that bad&forced case + apparent want to vote anyone = constructed case. And I fail to see how I could have "thought of" any substantially different explanation to my original accusation, therefore the original case and it's later explanation are inherently linked together.

Your LLD case is funny in that you're basically voting LLD for the way she usually plays.

Dan is back aaannndd... appears to probably be town. Want to see his LLD case, but so far he reads like townDan.

Oh well, this convinced me that Capt. hs vote isn't as inconsequential as I thought, so there goes my only lead so far.

## Unvote

The only other thing that really stood out to me so far was Affinitys case on Serela, Serela is so town I don't even know and using a contradiction against him that is only a contradiction for you is beyond awful. But that's get overshadowed by his decision to keep the box. Honestly if he haven't made this decision then we would still sit in box speculations up to our necks and it's therefore the most pro town move I have seen all game.

Now here I am, a fool for sure! No wiser than I was before!

I spare you the rest of my null reads and or fence siting, it would be pointless anyway. But it should give you an idea why I do what I'm about to do, which is to share the only save information I have so far ITT my role. This serve two purposes, first it will provoked others to do staff that I can actually read and the second purpose will be obvious as soon as you know my role.

So here we go:
I'm Russell Hantz, Town Anti-Cult Vigilante.
I have a soot every night but it only kills if my target is cult. It doesn't work if my target is town or scum and I can't kill other ITPs.
And about the flavor, it seems that I'm a rather mean guy from some reality television game show know as ?Survivor ?. I'ven't seen it, and I have better things to do than to google it as Sadoweh suggested, so I'm not sure but it sounds more like I'm the ITP here.^^;

I guess you can see the second purpose now, which is to enjoy this delicious wine inform you about the potential existence of a third party.

Thank you for you attention, I'll catch up after lunch.

nope.avi

It would make perfect sense for scum to do this instead of, say, passing it to a town (They could pass to their scumbuddies but then their buddy would have to do basically the same thing anyway.). I mean, it's not an actual reason to call Affinity as scum, but it's -definitely- not something that makes him townier. That's silly.

Besides we're still sitting in box speculation up to our necks :V

I know that this point is founded on the assumption that he keeps it to stop the speculation and therefore kind of WIFOMish but it's still what I think about it. I'm also quite sure scum would prefer the ?hot potato? method and I think that I already said why. However, the more important point will be what he's going to do with it anyway.

Catch up now.

Serela · « **Reply #246 on:** April 02, 2012, 06:58:09 PM »

I don't think scum would choose the Hot Potato method if they already had the box in their possession, because it's basically

A.Giving away your vig power
B.Putting it in the hands of a townie who could actually hit scum

Basically, I think Affinity holding the box is a null-tell. There are completely valid reasons for both alignments to do it.

Alright, Dan's latest post is... Not Good.

First off, are you using a template?

http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,10806.msg715454.html#msg715454

Second off, are you saying that Dormio is scummy because when he voted you for voting someone who hadn't posted, he should have thought about why you were voting someone who hadn't posted?

ALSO, WHERE IS EVERYBODY.

Waiting for minoriko to pop out of the box

Kitten4u · « **Reply #249 on:** April 02, 2012, 08:04:57 PM »

I'm here. I got literally no sleep last night, so I apologize if my words are awkward.

I mulled over what happened last night and decided that Omba is more town than not now. Not willing to lynch anymore. Everything else requires another read and a bit more waffling (reread count: 10 *sob*). My opinions on current wagons are about the same really. My town read on BT is stronger than my read on Dan, but holy shit this wagon spread is awful. I was hoping people would actually treat this as though it were a 48 hour D1. :/

I need a minute to mull over Dorian's claim. If you're still here Dorian, can you paraphrase the part that says why your character is this role?

capt. h · « **Reply #251 on:** April 02, 2012, 08:09:49 PM »

To be clear, I'm voting Dan because I don't like his Dormio case, because his last post is structurally a carbon copy of This Post from when he was scum (so much so that I swear he has to be using a template), and because I am not very impressed with how we're still missing that LLD case he promised 10 minutes to KABLOOEY.

Well it seems that I (Russell Hantz) like cane other who are weaker then I'm and I'm good at bringing people to think that I where on their side, I hope that answers your question. Like I said the flavor made me think that I were the ITP the first time I read it if it weren't for the green Town Anti-Cult Vigilante role name.

Oh well, seems I missed som stuff.

Mr_Bob · « **Reply #265 on:** April 02, 2012, 08:29:46 PM »

Mind-dump:
Noticed LLD's solid first post against Dan, there was little elucidation as Wagon Dan took off, questioned it, got dismissed.

Also, Affinity asked if I preferred to vote Serela or Dan, forgot to answer that last post, which at that time would have been Dan as he had been gone (possibly lurkering to let heat die down). Not so sure now.

Dorian is probably doing as much fence-sitting as I am. But I am feeling okay about K4 and Affinity.
I can see where both sides are coming from with BT > Conq, Chaore > BT. More research!
Capt needs to be re-read. Wishing for some more Rawr and Dormio.
Omba and NoName need analyzing; have not gone in depth.

ActionDan · « **Reply #266 on:** April 02, 2012, 08:31:49 PM »

That guest is probably me. I have time to devote.

@Capt.h, I never have used templates although it's amusing to see the similarities between that post and my last. Of course in those reads I thought Bard was traitor scum at the time. Can you reiterate exactly why you don't like me instead of placing emphasis on style and timing.

LLD is simply targetting me with an early case and willingly ignoring others. That's pretty much the case. She never expanded on her vote which was placed ater I "voted" affinity so something must have come over her to send her over the edge and be comfortable enough to vote me.

And Yes, Dormio is not thinking critically and giving out bs reasons to vote.

ActionDan · « **Reply #267 on:** April 02, 2012, 08:36:14 PM »

Dorian's claim makes me jealous, but it sounds very true. (The only way it's fake is if Conq/LLD are scumbuddies with Dorian and are stealing the idea from Choose Your Side mafia). we'll know if it's fake if no dead cultists appear as the days progress. Mind you, the cultists could be benign. However it's best to ignore Dorian... forever

. Don't bomb him, don't lynch him, don't vig him. he might as well be playing a seperate game.

BT · « **Reply #268 on:** April 02, 2012, 08:37:47 PM »

So you seem to make no difference between your two scum reads. Which means your vote could have gone either way. Instead of placing two votes on LLD, you go on to be the lone vote on Dormio. Which is avoiding attention. Which is scummy.

Omba, you act as if I ever had the pleasure of playing with LLD. I don't know her meta, therefore I could never have taken advantage of it in a scummy way. (or whatever else you're trying to imply with that)

Bob, who is the scummiest at the moment? Doesn't have to the a vote.

BT · « **Reply #269 on:** April 02, 2012, 08:39:00 PM »
