    Also, pointing out a post where you agree with MH implying that her ability is valuable does not equate to you knowing that she is the Cop. There are plenty of roles that would have qualified there. Nice try.



    And all of them would give me the same desire to kill her, were I scum.

    Quote from Cyan

    Unsurprisingly, I would like to see Syrenz daykilled. His last post to me reads as almost a complete collapse, which I generally find only happens to scum(when it happens so quickly, anyway).


    I looked over that post multiple times, trying to get an understanding of what exactly goes on in your head. After looking it over multiple times I still cannot figure out what on earth you're talking about, so enlighten me.

    Quote from AsianInvasion


    I've wanted to ask you a question for some time and I hope you'll answer honestly regardless of alignment (though since I'm asking in-game instead of via PM it's fair game for discussion): If given the choice, do you prefer playing as town or as mafia?



    Probably mafia. My two favorite games that I've played in are Heroes and Anita Blake, both of which I was mafia in and I've found things tend to go the way I want them more often when I'm mafia than when I am town.

    Quote from Infinis
    N1 Vibebox now Dancing Mad was at Power level 12
    N2 DC was at power Level 8

    Now I was thinking both are scum hiding the Zone Block, but DC was honest about what he did.


    It's time for you to elaborate.

    Right, because A)you having some one-shot ability influences the likelihood of someone else having that ability on a permanent level(for example: Gigas can get a daykill, but does that stop Vezok from being the Vig?), or B)scum ever actually falseclaim roles that could get counterclaimed(when was the last time you actually saw this happen in a game? Scum have long since figured out that the best thing to do is tell the truth about your own role). Unless you're really arguing that some scum is going to try to falseclaim your 1-shot ability. That argument would be ridiculous.

    Seriously, did you just go look up 'Mafia 101' to come up with this answer? It's very textbook, but grossly inappropriate.



    It's actually a) and c) mostly.

    I don't know how likely it happens that scum claim things that can be counterclaimed. What I do know is that you don't claim info for NO DAMN REASON when there's a chance that you can catch scum off it if you keep things quiet.

    Learn to play the ☺☺☺☺ing game.

    The issues you have are bad.


    I disagree.


    Quote from Cyan
    A)He rolecopped her. B)He just figured it out, and acted like he figured it out earlier to make himself look better.



    Try again?

    Quote from AsianInvasion
    He has been a bit lurkier than usual.



    a) I've dropped not so subtle hints that I've been busy lately, such as replacing out of Amistaria and saying so outright in the family thread.

    b) What exactly is my usual? The last two games we've been in together recently were Amistaria 2, where my activity level was the same and Doha where my activity was also not so great (I'm sure I got called out for lurking). So what exactly is this usual you speak of?

    Quote from AsianInvasion
    Slow game is slow.

    @Syrenz: Please state what one-shot ability you expended Night One.


    What makes you think I would do this now, based on what I said and what you yourself agreed with?


    Quote from AsianInvasion


    Syrenz disappeared so he's probably been sick with a fever the past few days.



    Teach



    Agreed that Infinis needs to claim his stuff.

    Quote from Cyan

    @Syrenz: I don't see why you WOULDN'T answer if you were town. It was a one shot ability that didn't work and can't be used again. There is literally zero reason for you to be secretive about it. Unless A)it's just really scummy or B)you're lying.



    Or because there's no reason to give extra info to the scum and tell them which roles not to try and falseclaim.

    Also, Unvote Descoures, Vote Syrenz. Syrenz' approach to the Descoures wagon is really, really bad. There are plenty of legitimate reasons to be voting Descoures. But the argument that Syrenz has taken..isn't one of them.


    What is wrong with my logic? I outlined quite clearly the issues I have.

    And it is willfully misrepresentative, in a manner that I can only find to be malicious. For example, in his last post, Syrenz talks about how DC changed his mind about his 'quibble' over 'the course of 2 posts(2 of DCs posts, that is)'. What he leaves out, but is extremely relevant, is that two HUNDRED posts happened between the posts that Syrenz is referring. And that is a ton.


    How on earth is that relevant? I never said he changed his mind. In fact I said that he didn't. dC said he resolved it. He never said that he resolved it in between the two posts and then after he said the "You were wrong with Manders" line he mentioned his quibble, showing he still has it.

    And the manner in which he completely outed MH as the Cop. Etc.


    Yeah, explain why this is a point against me and my scum motivations for doing so.

    I've seen more than enough to feel comfortable voting him. I like this vote better than any I have placed all game, actually.


    Stupid

    As for your second point, you do realize that I was the first person to check the meaning of 'toponomy' and mention it in-thread, right? I had that 'quibble' quite a while ago, and similarly resolved it to my own satisfaction quite a while ago. I'm not seeing the disconnect here.




    Here's your quibble... now 2 posts (of yours) later you say this which is "You were wrong about Manders.". There's no "resolving" of that in between the two posts. Now, the statement "You were wrong with Manders." is a definite statement. A statement indicating that this is absolute truth.

    This post is after you saying that statement and is showing you still have a possible 'quibble' (even if you say it's not conclusive).

    Making the statement "You were wrong with Manders." is scummy by itself (since this isn't really possible to say without inside information). Making the statement "You were wrong with Manders." while at the same time having "a possible quibble" is even more suspect. This is my issue.


    @Cyan: I don't see a good reason for me to be answering that right now. Why?

    And what do you mean 'rubbed you the wrong way'? You started off yesterday basically telling everyone on my wagon that you were confidant I was town, now with your attitude towards me, I feel like your trying to distance yourself from me. Not exactly scummy, but that rubs me the wrong way.


    What does he have to distance himself from exactly?

    I wish they'd made a Mac client for GW1 instead of just making one for GW2- I'm stuck with like 2/3 to having every single Elite Skill capped on my Dervish, as well as needing to finish my Vanquishing runs. And all that fun jazz- found out my account was hacked and I lost all my armors except my basic one, and most all the greens I had on my minions.
    They left my dye and like 6 ecto though. =/
    And my 500ish flasks of Firewater.


    I don't use my accounts anymore, though I did log in back when they announced those hall of monuments transferable GW1 to GW2 rewards. Have a bunch, but don't have all 50 points yet. I might work on it close to release, but feel fairly unmotivated to do grind (as much as I love GW, getting those rewards is just plain grind).

    Heh, it's been so long since I've played I thought the ritualist was called spirit master. Laugh

    I'm really really hoping that they'll keep Dervish in. Or maybe a variant that uses Naginatas- I dunno...I just really loved that style.

    Plus their outfits kicked ass.


    I don't think it's likely we'll see dervishes. The Guardian profession looks to be doing pretty much what dervishes did (hybrid warrior/healer). Agreed on their outfits though. I like the guardian role. It combines warrior/monk/spirit master into a pretty awesome looking package.

    Anyways, I just want to see a release date already. It's been way too long. (I remember back in September when people were like "It will probably come out on their anniversary in April." and I was like "That's way too far away." :()

    Cool interview. I'm not sure if I'm looking forward to the thief - it's not really my style. Still, it'll be an interesting reveal on Friday.



    Personally assassin has always been my favorite profession. Out of all the revealed classes right now I'd say I'd be going with either thief or ranger as my main. Should be interesting to see the last 2 classes (though one of them is very likely mesmer).

    I'm hoping we can see more of Sylvari sometime, since they started doing in-depth race overviews recently. I really doubt I'll ever play an Asura as my main though, they look too freaky lol.

    Townies Keep Getting Strung Up on [The Family] Tree. (I think I said something like this before).

    Barring that I'm good with the CC one, the creepy uncle one, or the slays together one.

    @Manders: I would but think about it for a moment. I put it in my sig. Every person clicks on it. Then they send it to all their friends and relatives, who in turn send it on to their friends and relatives etc... etc... going around the world and stealing everyone's time and bringing down the internet. It could lead to a terrible cat-astrophe!

    It could be this all over again!

    How about spectating? Smile


    If you're asking me if I'm going to join the spectator group of whatever game gets launched, sure!

    If you're asking me to vote for the game I'd most want to watch progress, I shall not do that. ( I have different choices for game that I would hypothetically want to play in the most and game that I would most want to spectate). :p

    Because he has a tendency to pull 'cases' like this even as town, and this could very well be coming from overeager town Cyan. I'm not going to make a judgment just yet, not without some time and space to read properly. And frankly, right now, I still feel TIK is a better lead.

    As for Manders, it's because I do believe her claim. Partially because (a) cop claim, even with this prevailing mechanic, is a dangerous claim for scum - Asphodel Meadows should have shown why; (b) it fits with the way she failed to go to the exile zone on day 1 and announced it in-thread; and (c) because, as scum, I'm not seeing why she would come out on day 3 and declare tordeck town under absolutely no pressure, when tordeck was still a very possible mislynch prospect.

    The only possible quibble I have with her claim is the 'Toponomy' thing, but it's an uncommon enough term that it's entirely possible atlseal just Did Not Do The Research.


    Your tone certainly sounds like you think he's scum.

    Anyways, your explanation for Manders thing doesn't comfort me. You claim to have a 'possible quibble'. Yet you said straight out and clearly that "You were wrong about Manders." as in Manders is without a doubt a town. You having a 'possible quibble' and saying that line "You were wrong about Manders." is off.

    Nice attempt at casual dismissal.



    Oh, so here you're intending to completely rubbish the very pertinent reasons why I thought TIK to be scummy prior to this post?


    Trying to accuse me of blind wagon-hopping in this instance is utterly disingenuous.


    Your statement is also classic poisoning the well, by the by.


    I also see you attempting to push the 're-read' thing as a point against me, but here it's just totally misrepresentation.

    You also ignore that I was away due to RL work, and that by the time I got back Shalako had already claimed.

    That's rather rich.


    This entire 'point' of yours steps very close to blatant misrepresentation.

    I see you're again ignoring posts I make in response to or with points against TIK.

    This is again utter nonsense.

    Also, nice insinuation -- completely ignoring the fact that the Arcadic wagon began and ended over a weekend in which I was completely absent.

    Are you even reading any more, or just cherry picking things to discredit?


    It sounds very much like you're saying Cyan is a lying thieving scum(bag). Why are you not voting him or calling him scum outright then?

    Also, why did you say "You were wrong with Manders"?

    I kind of feel bad for Gigas, he added his game so late that it probably won't get due consideration


    Ogre Mafia was the latest entry to be submitted in the last PCQ.


    Anyways, not going to vote considering I'm not likely to play in any of these.
