I agree with Rowain that Goreripper's claimed abilities aren't credible. Let's face it, night kill immunity and investigations are just the standard set of abilities that you claim if you want everybody to shy away from killing you. So it's consistent with wanting to survive, but not very believable beyond that.
It does seem likely that he's a solo faction, given that he "gave up" so easily. He could have all sorts of sinister side quests, though.
Can you give us more specific details about your abilities, Goreripper? And a full list?
If you know what I mean.

Quote:Because I was never on you in any serious sense at all. My freaking vote against you was nothing but a nudge, as most first votes are in this game. I was planning on leaving you from the moment I dropped the vote, unless you did something that was more scummy than anything anyone else did. The question was whether or not I needed to change my plans. It's not that complicated.
Facts are facts, Jabbz, you were voting for me. I get that you don't want to overstate how much it meant to you and I agree with that.
But the tone of your post is not "hmm, maybe I should stay with this vote for longer than I intended". It's much more of a "eek, people are voting with me, I'm not part of this/maybe I should leave".
How many times must I discharge my blunderbuss?

I don't find the Matt case to be substantial at all. Quite frankly it looks fishy as hell to me.
The Gore vote I understand, but I don't agree. If he is a survivor, then there is no reason to vote for him, as he isn't scum, and he can be quite useful to town. It appears that only one person is making arguments saying he could be faking it, but I'm not sure how convincing I find Rowain's argument to be. I'm more inclined to buy the "I don't give a shit, but you could butter me up" Gore, over the "Hey lets make up some whack bullshit for no reason, put myself on everyone's radar, and make myself a target" Gore.
The Gaz vote does seem to have some merit. His vote on me seems to be based on misunderstanding what I was saying. But he then votes Zak based on

Mattimeo seems more invested than last game, cockiness or no. Agnes, when you wake up - Jabbz posted more in his defense after you voted him, do you still think that he's the most scummy?
If we're pressuring people, Goreripper is a good target, but Pindicator has been equally sparse with contributions. Pind, your main point has been that you were sympathetic to Jabbz' case against Q, but didn't like Jabbz' tone. Now that he's posted more and you've had time to activate your scumhunt, what is your read on him? Or anyone?
Starts by backing off Zak, digs for more reasons to vote for me from the Orphan, and then drops a vote on Pindi for not posting enough? Then asks for more info on me? This follows.

Novice, what gives you a town read on Jabbz?
With absolutely no reasoning what so ever, he drops off Pindi, and onto Novice, for not being after Agnes anymore, who he never votes against, so must not have found all the suspicious. Why then is it odd that Novice drops off the Orphan? Still digging though for a possible reason to vote for me.
He does look like he is doing his best to find something to throw at someone, and evidently I'm his flavor of the day. Given he was ok with my initial responses, and he never lodges new suspicions about me, it seems very odd that he keeps trying to get people to jump on my wagon.
On the novice vote, Gaz's stinks, and Fenn's looks like a poke more than a jab, and I don't find him to be scummy at all.
I think Lewwyn looks scummy as hell, but lynching him while he is theoretically drunk as a skunk and passed out , and is unable to respond to questions seems a bit harsh.
Given the above Gazglum.
Cross post with a few people talking about Gore.

We will have to disagree here Agnes, and leave it at that. If you want to vote for me at some point in the future, that's your call.

I agree that Fenn has been laying a bit low. Not sure if he's scummy.

It's not a case I want to bring forth or discuss further today, so I agree with letting it be. I'm honestly not sure what my opinion is of you from that whole episode, and I know I have a predilection for finding you scummy.
Good post on the Glum.

Shadeun will there be an answer? You are currently begging to get lynched.

I was actually trying to make a point. I don't like it when people give a reason for a vote but don't dare to call it scummy, opting instead to describe it as weird, bizarre, etc.
I have to run.
