Well, I'm not sure what Idle Thoughts is? It's WIFOM on a grand scale. I think I will wait and see.

Kinda that's my attitude. He's made plays like this for both town and for scum. Benefit of the doubt for him right this second doesn't hurt much if he's scum (there are others out there) but does hurt town if we end up lynching our doc.

Two main points:
1. The former Dio talks about allowing scum to Night-kill the Doc...yet he obviously must have missed the memo where I can protect myself.
2. You all underestimate my not wanting to be in the game. I'm here to fill a spot. That's it. I'm not going to do any more work than that--what is required of me. I'll vote and try to help my team but I'm not going to bother hiding behind shadows and secrets during this game because having it all out in the open is much easier. I have nothing to worry about now. If everyone believes me, fine. If everyone doesn't and votes me off, fine. I have nothing to lose. Why would I be lying? I have nothing to lose or gain from it.
Since this is a no vanilla game I assume there's probably a lot of different roles out there. Probably more than one investigator. Feel free to investigate me if you want. But whoever it is is only going to waste an investigation because all you'll find out is what I'm already telling you.
I need some Doritos like Roosh needs a slurpee.

Yes. Believe me or don't and vote for me. I don't care. That was actually a sarcastic REALLY not an actual question. And as to whether I believe you or not I don't believe you. You weren't sucked into this game at the end to fill a vacant spot. You were the 12th person to sign up for it. I got the impression that you resigned to let a new person into the game, probably based on this statement from the sign-up thread: I also don't think you would screw over town by outing our Doc on day one for no good reason. Zuma maybe, but not you. I think you respect the game too much for that. You say you don't care if I vote for you or not, so here it is. Vote: Idleand on preview: You may have nothing to lose but what about the rest of us? I think you protest too much.

Found it. scumboard.proboards84.com/index.cgi?board=design&action=display&thread=167&page=15#2755Yeah, I was number 12 to sign up, Sinjin. And I was the first to drop out, as you see from that post. I only stayed in because, following that post, two or three people made me feel guilty to the point of staying in (which I still didn't want to do). So you go on and tell me that you know I really felt like playing. G'wan. You tell me how I feel.

I'll say this much--if you lynch Idle, and he's telling the truth, then I am gonna look REAL hard at you guys.
Seriously, what are the odds of him deciding he doesn't want to play, dropping out, being asked by several people to get back in, and then getting an appropriate role assigned to him when he subs in? I don't like those odds.
I'm not saying he's confirmed town, I'm just saying it's not going to help us to lynch him today unless literally no one else jumps out as potential scum, and even then it's a coin toss.
I don't like tossing coins when a potential doc is involved.

::Eats Doritos as he reads and enjoys the game::
You know, this really IS kinda fun. Maybe I was all wrong about not wanting to play.
Seriously...I may not be nuts about being in the game or playing but I AM a Doctor and on Town's side (would a scum Doctor role even work?)...so I'm willing to stay in the game (pending not being lynched) and work and side and vote with Town. But I'm not going to do much good to you guys dead and you'll all be up shit's creek if there's not another type of Doc.

Now I know why Roosh slurps so much on his drink...

The group spent the better part of the first night awake and deep in discussion, and by the time the Dawn met you, a few things had become clear (well... clearer than before, anyway). None seemed to know how they had arrived on this barren outerworld. Some are even telling the truth. Others know exactly how everyone got there. Those Who Know, though, ain't telling. What is certain, though, is that each of you received a gift clearly marked with a symbol; you opened the gift and wound up here. Few of you are conversant with ancient Egyptian symbols, but those few are able to piece together a rough and awkward translation of the symbols you saw: War, Famine, Plague, Death, and at the center: the Greek letter Alpha - the first - symbol of the first mutant, the one called Apocalypse. Based on your exploration of the region your group currently occupies, you've determined that the Skrull that once inhabited this planet are long gone. However, you have discovered that the shapeshifting Skrull seem to have left a "Skrull Equalization System" active when they abandoned the planet. This special technology, designed to avoid the chaos inherent in a society of shapeshifters, automatically assigns a constant identity to each individual on the planet. For example, you can see a person off to the side who has been cloaked in an identity called "storyteller0910" (but he's just Watching, so you don't have to worry about him). In all, your dilemma is clear. There are no signs of life, apart from the quarter-hundred of you, anywhere on this planet. The Horsemen and their Master clearly lurk among you, protected from identification by the Skrull Equalization System and the fact that they could be any one of you. You've come to the unpleasant consensus that you need to weed out those who initiated this unexpected trip; after they've been dealt with, you'll turn your attention to how to get back to Earth (well, it made sense when the idea was proposed). So Today, you are going to find one of those responsible and kill him or her off. At least, you hope so. So, now, get to it! ------- Day One has now begun. Voting is open and permitted. If you have Day powers, you may use them by sending a PM to both moderators (ALL powers will resolve either at Dawn or at Dusk, regardless of when they are sent in). Please review the rules elsewhere in this forum, and have at it! Gotta ask for you to give your secret nursery rhyme publically. Re set may have to come

You'll end up with two dead townies in two Days. That's how incredibly reckless his play is today if he is town and he doesn't seem to care one way or the other. I assert he has too much respect for the game and his team-mates to do that and is instead trying to play a WIFOM game with us for his/their nefarious purposes.

If you are the pro-town Doc... then what, you're going to play WIFOM with the scum over nightkills until a pro-town role is outed that might need protection? Bupkis.

Molefan, that old perv crap is gonna get stale real fast. And I wouldn't want to be you when people get sick of asking for explanations of it, y'know? <OOC> Well, I've got candy to give out, and I've got to fit that in somehow. But I'll tone it down a bit. And BTW, I'm against a mass name reveal by instinct, but I can't give any particular reason for it in this case. I don't see what good me revealing my own name would do anybody, scum or town. </OOC>

Don't forget, boys and girls, we have four and a half days left (assuming the majority rules in this case) before we have to make a definite decision. I'm not suggesting that we leave it until the last day, but I do think it's quite likely other evidence may appear that we can factor into our decision-making in that time.

Just for the record, that guest post was not by me and had nothing to do with the game. It originated from the computer of one of our players; I'll ask that everyone refrain from making guest posts in the main game thread and anonymous posts at all.
I'll edit out the offending post for clarity's sake. Carry on!

I prefer ending the Day mid-week and ending the Night at the end of the week. That means I need to vote 5 days
The overall response to revealing names seems to be against, and since I'm still mildly against, unless there's anyone gungho for it, let's drop it.
My first reaction to Idle's claim is he's a survivor role who can't be easily Night-killed. But voting for him is way too early. I'd rather give the Scum a few shots at him first.

It would be nice if the Day ended on a weekend. That way I don't have to spend a couple of hours each week in the crapper at the end of each Day.
Length is not as important as content.

I don't know that I like metagaming much with regard to day length now that I think about it, at least at this point. Seems ta me like some of these long-day voting guys plan to switch to a 5-day Day vote once the day/night cycle shifts over to their preferred day ending time on a weekly basis.
I'm just the devil's advocate here. Don't want anyone getting too all-fired certain about stuff that has potential meta reasons for happening.
So, molefan, I might be a big boy, but I'm a pretty good boy. Where's that candy?
