Discuss who you wish to kill here.
YOU HAVE THREE KILLS. Yes, that means every Night, you can kill three people.
YOU MUST ALWAYS KILL THREE PEOPLE (until otherwise noted*)..YOU CANNOT JUST CHOOSE TO KILL ONE OR TWO PEOPLE. You also cannot choose NOT to kill anyone.
So vote on the three people you want to kill. Feel free to talk about who you think you should kill..but in the end, the three with the MOST VOTES will be killed.
*You will have three kills until there are only 40 people left in the game.

so I didn't really "get" the feeling that anyone in particular has a "special power," so I'm not sure where to start. But, I'm excited about this "night" phase.

Woohoo!! Three kills -- sweet!
Welcome to our new scum, Total and Mistde!
I vote for BillMc. He was still alive at end game last game. I don't think he should get used to it. For our new players, BillMc is one of the better players. We should be scared of him even though he appears to be AWOL.

Btw, if we're on this board, do we show up "online" on the regular Night thread?

I am so excited about this night phase too , but I wasn't kidding on the other board. I have seriously had only 3 hours of sleep and it is 1120pm here on the East coast. My brain is not up to decision making tonight. I had to stay up though to post on our night board. ;D So here's my post and I'm off to bed. Catch you all tomorrow.

cathi - I'm not sure, but I didn't take any chances - Changed my online/offline to "Out saving lives" for both. Didn't want to give away that I might be an another board.

Don't be paranoid. People don't know what board you're looking at, haha.
They'll just assume you're online and checking in on the boards to see if there's any new Night discussion in the thread.
Believe me, nobody ever gets suspicious because you're online.

Based on what I saw in Day 1, I would think that Gadarene is a good candidate for a kill. He is an active player capable of swaying lots of votes.
For all intents and purposes, Starrirain is gone because Gadarene suspected her.
Of course, of the three people Gadarene expressed strong judgments on, he was wrong twice. Maybe he is not so good at identifying scum. Still, I consider him dangerous.
The comment about BillMc makes sense to me. I can easily imagine that the most dangerous players lay low early on but read everything carefully.

UM....Amy and Cathi, did either of you accidentally post in the PUBLIC forum thinking you were on the scum boards? Yep, looking at the logs, Cathi, you posted in the wrong forum. You posted IN THE PUBLIC FORUM.
Because someone saw it before you deleted it.
YOU'VE GOT TO MAKE SURE YOU'RE IN THE RIGHT FORUM. : /
Now this person will be suspicious of you both...because Cathi NAMED AmyKB in her post.
PLEASE MAKE SURE TO DOUBLE AND EVEN TRIPLE CHECK WHAT FORUM YOU'RE IN BEFORE YOU POST IN HERE!!!
It's happened before, so don't feel bad. Scum have made wrong forum posts in the public topics before...so it helps to CHECK before you post.

I'm off for the evening after I post this, but want to get my thoughts out there for discussion.
1. I think those on the starrirain-mislynch-bandwagon will be looked at for scumminess. This would be bad if anyone focuses on the 5 of us that voted for her. On the plus side, Garadrene led the charge; this fact was one of my arguments to vote for him on Day 1, but dizzymrslizzy was such an easy, safe vote for me (imo). While I agree with what richbeckman says about killing Gadarene because of his influence, I think that this could be used as an argument to get him mislynched also.
2. I think it will be easy to get the Town to mislynch ascime as well. He also set himself up and wombat99, colby11, and MrSpecialEd are already suspicious. He was also on the starrirain wagon.
3. If we target someone(s) who voted with several others (votees: Pleonast, but that backfires; dizzymrslizzy; or meeko), we can wipe out Townies AND make it look like the votee is suspicious (scum protecting its own). Of course, we could make a WIFOM case from the Townie side with this move too.
4. Have any of our experienced scum-mates seen any indications of detectives/masons/doctors/etc? What should us new players be looking for?
5. Should we consider killing the most experienced players in hopes that any noob Townies with powers won't know what to do with these powers?
6. Thank you, Pleonast, for stirring up a huge pot of crazy to kick us off. What fun!
7. Idle, isn't paranoia part of this game?? ha!
My mind is going round and round and round and round and ....

That's up to you. This member PMed me asking me if it was something that he shouldn't have seen, and I didn't know what to say (I didn't even know what he was talking about)..then he told me what he saw and I thought "Oh crap, someone must have made a post in public".
From the SOUNDS of it, this member will probably NOT say anything, however..so it's up to you if you want to say something anyway.
Keep in mind that if you do, you can either lie and try to cover it up or you can come clean..but it will probably cost scum two members (you and Amy).
You are totally free to not say anything, too, and hope this member doesn't say anything.

...so what did it say? I didn't see it so I'm not sure what someone may suspect. If it does end up killing me, don't worry too much, Cathi.

Hi all - just a heads up: I am lousy at playing scum and if any of you can save yourselves jumping on me at any time - just do it and get some town cred for it. All-metagamish: I like playing with both BillMc and ED, so I'd rather not kill any of them the very first Night. If we could wait a Night or two then I'm fine with them as a NK. I'm skimming who is scum ATM because then I might play a bit better and show less PIS. So not really sure who we should kill. But Gadarene is fine by me Guiri could also be a good choice as is Mahaloth, Suburban Plankton - but I think we're more safe with a mix of both nOObs and oldies. If we go for all oldies, then ones of us having played before might be reduced to a very small pool - and that could create suspicion... Also for the ones that don't know me: I'm Danish and playing from the European timezone. This means I sometimes have my very own writing style and a personalized spelling

Idle, could you change the title of this thread to SCUM night one? That helps me not post on the wrong board. I asked the mod to do that for me last time I was scum, because I very nearly posted on wrong board.
Cathi, what did the post say? It's better for us to be prepared.
Total, I agree with your metagamish. Ed and Guiri died N1 in the last game. That's why I picked BillMc for this game.
We will likely have some roles to target Tomorrow night. Since we have 3 kills, I'm thinking that town will have at least 3 detectives. And we might start getting some claims.
I have never played with this many scum before. Perhaps we should just each vote for 3 players to kill and Idle can take the highest votes? I do think it's a good idea to kill a mix of packratters and oldies.
I am travelling this next week and my internet will be sporadic.

Could this be our mason trying to breadcrumb?? I think we should kill Gadarene and Guiri toNight Thank you texcat. Vote: guiri [/color] Reasoning - the very early finger-pointing in posts 9 and 11. Also for the disrespect to the wonderful game of PackRat which brought many of us together.[/quote] For what it's worth, I would oppose a Day One guiri wagon. When he's Town, guiri is one of the very best players on this site. Since most people, mathematically, are Townspeople, I think the downside to lynching guiri early when we have so little information about anyone far outweighs the upside of the likelihood that he'll be a scum.[/quote]

I think one of our kills should be dizzymrslizzy because only one of the people who voted for her was Scum (sorry cathi) and this would probably send everyone scurrying off down completely the wrong route. Plus she has got so involved from the very start that I am starting to wonder if she has a special role...
I thought about us killing off Meeko, but I think if we did (and obviously didn't kill Pleonast at the same time) everyone would quickly deduce from that that Pleonast was scum and at the moment they are nicely confused over what he is.
I am a bit worried that they will all deduce that the players subbed in quickly were to replace missing scum members, so I hope the other missing players will get replaced soon too.
Oh and Ullz, I'm on European time too - although I can keep some very strange hours lol.

cathi - I'm not sure, but I didn't take any chances - Changed my online/offline to "Out saving lives" for both. Didn't want to give away that I might be an another board. Given the situation, I would suggest your "Our saving lives" is a lot more suspicious than "online".

I think killing Gardarene is a good option. He has demonstrated lots of ability AND killing him will look like the two he saved (Pleo and Meeko) are town.
Beyond Gardarne, I think we should pick two who have not participated much at all. If it were not for the fact that getting killed so early really sucks for a newbie, I would say kill two newbies. It is a numbers game and in that sense one townie is as good as another. Also, this early in the game the experienced players are still as likely to kill another townie as not. There seems to be plenty of suspicion all around.
Kills that sow suspicion would be good. For example, killing Susan K. Murphy will make some suspect that Guiri is Scum.

haha, I'd be fine with killing Gadarene as well. I found his posts to be very logical, but something rubbed me the wrong way a few times. I also agree about dizzymrslizzy - lianne makes a good point about how involved she is, perhaps a special role tell.

the players that caught some heat in the Day thread. we can leave alone. Town will kill them for us. I can't find the post in D1 but the player that mentioned detective with excitement should be one of our targets
