WW21 - The Professor Is Dead [game thread]

[novice]

Yeah I think I prefer Ryan.

[Mattimeo]

Don't like Mattimeo criticizing my call for claims. Like I said, I have breadcrumbed my role, and there is nothing vague about it. If I am lynched, you will be able to deduce my role.

Was not criticising the call for claims in itself, more the fact you were calling for others to claim while you sat there with vague reassurances that we'd be able to work it out if you ended up dead, but no actual claim of your own other than "not vanilla". I have an inherent distrust if people pushing claims if they're not willing to come straight out with their own, as such behaviour tends to indicate a scum looking for information as to what would be a safe claim. Somewhat mitigated by your statements about having laid groundwork as to what the role is already, but still...

Matt, what's your case on Lewwyn?

Initially, was mostly based on #71, the exclusive focus on the two who could be argued to be 'on the block', with 3 and 2 votes against them, rather than anyone else (including two others at 1, and only a passing "slight possible town lean so I should vote for someone else" on his target at the time, who was on 2).
Quite recently, 177 really didn't sit well with me, being a mix of deliberate misunderstanding, asking questions that had already been answered, and trying generally to push me into something that could be interpreted as a "slip-up" to pounce on for the mislynch. I'm aware I may be slightly biased on my takes from that post, though.


Could be interesting if the vote against Qgqqqqq yesterday was actually with the intent of bringing up competition against his scum-buddy zak. Though I think there's enough antagonistic interaction between them that's not a brilliant argument to be making.

[Lewwyn]

Being following on my phone, and I just got home from dinner. Not sure I have much left to currently add though. My vote seems a bit superfluous atm.

[Gazglum]

Now I feel like the kid at the grown-ups table, being ignored by his betters.

I don't like how Zak doesn't respond to me, but has Serdoa do so much of his defence for him. I don't like the call for claims, though I can see Zak is dropping lots of hints about why, I'm in no state to unravel them right now.

Serdoa, I thought your post 182 was good and it has given me food for thought.

Still, I am in blood steeped so far etc. I'm sticking with my vote on Zak, though it's becoming clear where the lynch is going. FArewell Ryan. May your insides be wolfy.

This is the first time that you've actually clearly expressed why you've been voting for me. And even then I don't think that you're really being completely clear. Where am I deliberately misunderstanding you? Which questions did I ask that have already been answer.

I also think this:

is hilarious given you've barely said anything you could actually slip on. Point in fact I am trying to get you to say something so that I can actually get a read on you. Curious how you finally post with 10 minutes left to go in the day.

[zakalwe]

I'm guessing we should stop posting until the lynch is resolved.

So let's all go and investigate that bright thing in the sky.

GG scum

[Azza]

Most of the remaining crew had been discussing who to accuse next. There was plenty of back and forth, accusations flying all over the place, but in the end they settled on suspiciously absent Zoidberg.

Zoidberg was busy sifting through the garbage looking for some scraps when out of nowhere, the crew appeared behind him. Unfortunately, he didn't realise how suspicious it was that he was suddenly interesting to them. They quickly encircled him, put rubber bands on his claws, and dropped him into a large pot of boiling water. Turned out he wasn't the mafia, but at least they had a delicious seafood dinner for their efforts.

Ryan was Zoidberg.



Zoidberg was innocent.

Vote Tally
Ryan (3) - Serdoa, zakalwe, novice
zakalwe (2) - Ryan, Gazglum
Lewwyn (1) - Mattimeo
Mattimeo (1) - Lewwyn

Remember, tonight will last an extra 24 hours due to the late resolution. Thanks for your patience.

My first lynch, Ah well GG. I was being emotional after all.
