well if you look at Ed's dialog with me for the past 5 games or so, he consistantly has the desire to flip me crap, some of it warrented some of it? ? And if you look at the dialog from the last game you might see this pattern.... And ED, come on, you always show me the love of getting people to vote for me.... I mean, I signup for the game and your comment is are you sure because you will be the VIG target... Now be nice or I am going to steal your goat and your make out in the bathroom with your favorite peeps.... Yeah, I figured I would would post something besides a drink recipe and given it is day one the only thing I know is stuff about myself.... Yes, please feel free to look at my past posts for other games... That is going to help you out here alot.... <== passes a round of short bus's Ingredients : - 1/3 oz herbal liqueur (chartreuse,strega,izarra...) - 1/3 oz peppermint liqueur - 1/3 oz don q® high proof rum Pour all ingredients into a shot glass, stir, and serve.

To be fair, the last game I played with him we lynched him the first day, subbed him in and lynched him again so I don't know that on the basis of that game I can argue he was nonparticipatory cuz, I mean, we didn't let him participate. In Halloween Mafia, he was killed the 1st time without ever even posting once in Day 1. He was lynched on day for for advocating the lynching of a claimed mason to "confirm" the others. It was he only real contribution to the game discussion. Then, when he became the lynch leader. He refused to claim. He was 3rd party, by the way. So, yes, he did minimally participate once during his 2 stints in the game. ~~~~~~~~ Now, if he actually wants to take the vote as pressure to participate, then it's all for the common good. If he feels like he shouldn't be participating until day 3 (and then failing to do so) like in Holy Grail, then I say it's probably better to be rid of him sooner than to wait until then for him to start leaving a record of his presence.

PM's received (thanks oh most powerful of mods - where's the ass-kissing emoticon? ) and ready to go. Looks like a lot of new faces around since last time I played here. Hello to everyone. Cpt Pinkies - seriously? Why claim page 2 of Day 1? Although I guess you are just claiming a name, not a role. But still Why?

If you feel my approach isn't likely to be fruitful, how about you contribute something to the game. And, if it's unfair of me to bring in your previous games into the discussion, how can it be fair for you to bring in my previous play into the discussion? I'll concede that before roles went out that you might make a good target for a Vig. As to the other comments, please give some evidence where I've gone after you and gotten others to vote for you. Please don't bring up Haloween where I actually didn't vote for you when you didn't participate at all on day 1, and only voted for you on day 2 when you decided to keep your vote on a claimed Mason.

Hmmm.... Well let's see I have contributed to the game, already... Haven't I? And no ED I see no point into going back to the past games we have played together and bring up evidence that you enjoy flipping me crap for my play style or lack there-of... It has no bearing on this game that we are playing now... My point is you are voting for me for no other reason than ?? (what?) because I am not sure..... Is it my drink recipes or the fact I stopped passing you the hookah? I suppose that if you didn't come out and give me crap that people might think you are out of character.... and find you suspicious.. Should we be suspicious of you ED? What ARE you motivations for wanting me dead?

What ARE you motivations for wanting me dead? If you aren't going to support any claims you make, then you probably shouldn't make them. I've made my accusations and supported them. I think you should be suspicious of me. My motivation for wanting you dead is that I'm basically equally suspicious of everyone at this point. That said, I think voting for you might encourage you to actually participate as you failed to do in Holy Grail and Halloween, among other games. Failing that, getting rid of someone who fails to participate early is probably better than getting rid of someone who is likely to leave a post history that is more than just a string of drink recipes. And, as I said, if you have a better idea, feel free to state it.

No ED, I am not going to go back to previous games, it doesn't add ANYTHING relevent to this game and is a complete waste of time. I would much rather go find interest drink recipes about goats and retards.. <== passes a round of Retarded Monkey Lost In The Ural Mountains Ingredients 2 oz. Liqueur, banana 2 oz. Sour Apple Pucker 2 oz. Vodka, pear Mixing Instructions Shake ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice. Strain into glass. It has a smoother taste than you'd expect. And just to annoy you I'll be posting drink recipes more often this game than I normally do

And just to annoy you I'll be posting drink recipes more often this game than I normally do So, let me get this straight. 1. You brought up previous games, and when asked to prove your point, your response is "No". 2. Your goal in this game is to annoy me. 3. You think it's appropriate to use the word 'retard' in a derogatory fashion in an attempt to annoy me. In response: 1. If you won't support something, don't bring it up in the first place. 2. That is anti-Town. 3. I didn't realize you were an asshole. I just thought you played the game poorly. My mistake.

It isn't... I already passed a ice cool beverage.... and now.... fair enough Vote: Captain Pinkies [/color] For the new players. captain Pinkies had a total of 17 posts in the most recent game: Day 1: - Drink Recipe and PM confirmation
- Comment on a Vanilla claim
- Comment on a player asking to sub out
- Comments that he doesn't participate until day 3. Another drink recipe
- Repeats that he doesn't participate until Day 3 and dtates that he isn't lazy
- Another drink recipe
- Claims he isn't lurking and posts another drink recipe
- Encourages people to vote for him if he's suspcious
- An actual comment on the game in regards to another players investigation claim
- Comments about his not making comments
- Comments on a self-preservation vote by another player
- OMGUS vote for a player who stated that CP is contributing very little.
- Denies the vote was OMGUS and another drink recipe
- ditto
- me toos another players comment
- repeats that his style is to wait and see (and his future play will really push the 'wait' aspect to its limits and anotehr drink recipe
Day 2 No posts at all. Day 3 - Claims that he thought he posed during Day 2
Yes, that was the sum total of his Day 3 contribution. The day where he really gets into the game. Having waited and seen what was going on (and a great deal did happen) Fortunately, a Vigilante took him out during Night 3. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Now, this isn't unusual for Captain Pinkies. he has previously signed up for games and then posted infrequently with little contribution for the game. It might be best to wait for a Vigilante to kill him, but in the meantime, this vote allows me to express my displeasure with his participation in games recently.[/quote] Special Ed Ed: Was he town or scum in this game?

He was Town. That's not entirely the point however. He leaves no trail with this playstyle. Therefore, it's anti-Town. If I can do something to encourage his participation, then it's better for the game regardless of his alignment. My attempt seems to have failed though. All I've done is irritate him into being more aggressively non-participatory.

Hi all. I don't think I have anything to contribute yet (still sorta a newbie) but I thought I should check in and read up. I find day 1 really tough and would appreciate any suggestions on how people decide others are scummy.

It's also an opportunity to see where people are in terms of how they view lynching lurkers and things like that. Like Ed, who appears to favor a cut the dead weight approach as opposed to others who, in the past, have advocated a more sandbag plan: townies who don't play are sandbags to entice scum with.

Hoping to spur a more fruitful conversation, let me ask some questions. I assume that passing Snacks from Townies who have them to Townies who need them is one of our goals. What are Scooby Snacks for? Do any of you have special need for the Snacks? Could it do any good for two players to give Snacks to each other back and forth? Will Snacks be used as bribes to get Lynch votes rescinded?

You know, at this point, I would not answer questions over if you need scooby snacks for any special purpose.
Also, no idea what the snacks are for. Nor do I know any reason to hand out snacks back and forth nor for bribing purposes.
And the fact you even asked about people who have special uses for scooby snacks almost feels like role fishing.
so I am dropping a LEVEL 2 FOS - COCKED EYE REVEIRE on you.

I felt the recipe-posting and past-game discussion was unproductive, and thus anti-town; so hoped to develop some alternate discussion. Anyway, what's with the Level Two Reveire(*)? Are you sure you're not just being ... paranoid? (* - Google thinks this is an Occitan word. )

while i certainly won't give ed any grief over his chastisement of pinkies for his recent activity behavior this is taking on the flavor of ed v meeko in the most recent cabal game (i think).

neta: i double checked and yes it was the most recent conspiracy game. don't know why i called it cabal other than they are one of the factions in this ongoing series.

Will Snacks be used as bribes to get Lynch votes rescinded? yaknow these are are good questions, kind of. i would add: does everyone have them? how many do folks have? are they limited to a certain alignment? the name implies that they would be wanted by scooby (who i assume will be in this game) but is that necessarily true? do they power someone up? if so is this power an additional action or increased effectiveness of an allready possessed action (this would include voting)? are they consumable (i.e. they get used and then go away)? or does something happen when someone gets all/a majority/some number of snacks? are they a total red herring meant for us to go down the bunny hole by mods who seem to be increasingly measuring the success of their games by making the group engage in a whole bunch of ass showing and by the degree that they accomplish a collective chain yank?

and since it will need to be addressed at some point and because scum already have answers to at least some of these questions i will:
give one scooby snack to septimus
he broached the subject so why the heck not?
and just as an addendum. now we have not only blue, red, green and orange but also purple. all the colors of the rainbow. makes my little teletubby heart content.
i still think we need to figure out how to use yellow or white if nothing else for the annoyance factor

How is it that every game seems to get three pages in before i even know it started? I'm confirming receipt of my role PM, and will now catch up and post substantively as soon as possible.
Fair warning: as a general rule, I will almost never be participatory during the real-life weekend.

Anyway, I encourage you and everyone else to do this: 1. Go to Captain pinkies' profile2. Where it says "view posts" look back at maybe his last 400 posts. (That way you;ll get all 327 of them) 3. Skim them. Look for content amid all the drink recipes. I am extremely uncomfortable with this approach to the game. I think there are people with playstyles that I find to be unhelpful and even unpleasant, and I'm sure there are people who feel the same of me. Basing votes, lynches, or Vig kills (as you have obliquely suggested) on that sort of thing - rather than on what's likely and happening in the current game - is both unlikely to generate a good outcome and very likely to be incredibly unfun. Well, you just voted for him. That's synonymous with "calling for his lynch."
