Almost 24h in, 3 people missing (Gazglum said he'd be away today), only events are Zak's town lean stuff and novice's activity and comments about role PMs and stuff, being pretty enthusiastic about everything. About the former, baiting in your first posts is not a bad way to start the day for town and I'd be willing to give Zak a tiny town lean on that. About the latter Zak says novice wouldn't be enjoying himself so much if he was scum, do the other vets agree ?

Farmer Glum checking in from Kentish countryside! Yes, chatty novice is usually nice novice, though I assume he will eventually notice this tell and change his style. In the meantime, rowain for not handing out enough town points.

I don't know, I think we could do with throwing around a few subjective votes currently. We don't have much to go on but we can at least leave some trails that could potentially be analyzed later.
Meh. I want to vote Rowain on that note, to get a significant bandwagon going. I'm kind of reluctant to put his back against the wall though, where he'll be tied down to self defense voting.
Okay, I guess I'll try to surprise the audience instead. Zakalwe, you gave me a town lean for my excitedness, but I said at the time that I didn't know my alignment, so how could it warrant a town read?

No to 24 hour days. Yes to a mass claim. Someone is bound to slip up and claim a bastard role.
Ok, so this means you did not get a PM yet? I didn't catch that. I read your posts in the morning, and thought you were just making fun of the greedy bastards / no bastard roles contradiction.
While we're on the topic, what would your possibly-unfair-meta-theory regarding the missing PMs be? Are you angling for "fair play" points?
If you know what I mean.

I didn't let my mind wander too far down the rabbit hole, but one theory would be that the GM would be unlikely to forget to PM the scum players, but more likely to forget PM'ing the town players. That is probably not valid at all, but the larger issue is that discussions like that tend to unexpectedly touch upon knowledge that suddenly meta-clears someone or even exposes someone. Refer to the game where I questioned my neighbour Mattimeo about some phrasing and he messed up by posting an obviously fake quote (referring to villagers as townies or vice versa). I'd also argue that discussions like that make scum afraid of messing up, so anyone casually discussing the situation would automatically gain town points.

Ok. Maybe it is in fact a topic we should shy away from, just to be on the safe side.
I'm heading to bed. AdrienIer commends me for baiting, which does smell a bit like buddying, but it's consistent with his own play a couple of games back. So maybe Gazglum is a better guess, for supporting me indirectly with his Rowain vote. Or maybe I'm overthinking things and Rowain is the bad guy.
Not sure about Novice at the moment.

Maybe but an early head to head deadlock gives no info at all. Makes it also easy for scum to hide.

Sorry for being AWOL most of the day, was busy at a conference. Zak, for pretending like anyone would have actually cared that he "faked a posting restriction". Surely he doesn't think he would have actually earned votes for that reason with this (small) crowd, and hence his post was a meaningless belch of hot air masquerading as particularly meager analysis, even by D1 standards.

Is that in reference to this, Bob?

...because the PR doesn't seem like the main point of that belch.
