I ACCUSE Viata
I ACCUSE Nevill

Now you are accusing just for the sake of accusing. I could just as well accuse everyone this way. I'm not accusing anyone but Nevill because he's the only one I think is the killer. Simple as that. If I'm wrong, that is it. I know I'm not, if I end up being hanged, it'll just make the killers have 3 people dead the next day. Well, it's not like I'll not be killed at night, anyway.

Ok. Work approaches. Let's spice things up.

I ACCUSE Viata
I ACCUSE Nevill

Spigot: corporate jew master,nevil, me
Jim the dimosaur: nevil, taxalot, duraframe
Grimgravy(me): duraframe
Nevil: Viata, me
Viata: nevil, me

Mr. Pink if people don't step up to put someone over the lynch threshhold, I ACCUSE Jim the Dinosaur so someone gets it.

The quiet ones need to let the accusations fly! Later peeps!

OK. Acknowledged.

25.5 hours remain.

Basically yes. Not enough people are voting. So, I figured I'd try to put some people closer to the edge to spur some discussion/movement. Sadly that hasn't happened yet. I must say I don't fully trust Nevil myself. He's too much of an autistic super-gamer kicking my ass in Alpha Centauri for that.

That's the right move. The more discussion we have, the more exposure we'll get.

Unfortunately, no one cares enough about our feud with Viata to support any of the sides. Except probably the killers.

I ACCUSE SPIGOT!

Better be sorry than do nothing, I guess.

i don't get it, what's that result in aside from me just accusing you in return

I VOTE TO HANG Viata

Because you are a primary suspect. So it's not like I'm accusing you for the sake of accusing. I could just vote Jim if that was the reason.

Taxalot's post:

Be a joke or not, it's better than no vote and have a no kill day.

lol what

aside from the fact that I don't think the methods really mean anything, that reasoning applies to jim (who already has 5 votes as it is, so there's already a lynching happening) as much as me except in your previous post you said there's no reason to accuse him

Now, I have been reading this stuff back and I found some stuff that does make a bear sound a bit suspicious.

i'm a little curious about one of our least active housemates, Hoaxmetal you've been laying so low, one might even forget you're here
He questioned Hoaxmetal's activity on the night the latter was killed.

Normally, the killers wouldn't kill the ones who are suspected by others. Why kill them when you can ride the paranoia train and have them lynched the next day?

It is also generally not in mafia's interests to kill lurkers. The more lurkers there are, the safer the killers feel.

However, nominating one as a suspect and then killing them off makes for a good case of reverse psychology. If I were a killer, why would I clear a name of the person I just suspected? Doesn't that run contrary to my goals? Clearly, I can't be a killer!

There is a little discrepancy here that is nagging at me. The murderers didn't have much reason to kill Hoaxmetal unless a bear named spigot was one of them. He was also online and active during my pillow post.

That does make him a suspect in my eyes, even though the evidence is fairly flimsy. The killers could just act out of lulz rather than out of logic.

Here's a list of accusations so far:
Spigot: corporate jew master, Grimgravy, Viata
Jim the dimosaur: nevil, taxalot, duraframe, (Grimgravy[is up to what happens])
Grimgravy: duraframe
Nevil: Viata, Grimgravy
Viata: nevil, Grimgravy
(I believe Nevill removed his acussation to you, but he might correct me if I'm wrong)

Jim has three(four) votes yet did 0 accusations. We got 8 people now, if we kill the wrong person we go down to 5 and then we can't win(3 votes vs 2 votes if we got the right killer[the other killer wouldn't vote against his partner]), knowing this, if Jim was the killer he would either: vote the same person as his partner or accuse another person(he would win the next night, why not try everthing to save himself?). In fact, I'd like to remove my vote against you. It made me see something better.

No, you are right. I removed the accusation. The thing that made me hesitate is that he had planned his post in advance, rather than typed it out as a response to our accusations.

if we kill the wrong person we go down to 5 and then we can't win
Pretty sure we can win as long as we outnumber the killers.

i voted for jim as well, it's four with grim as fifth in case of emergency. and I also voted for you just now, don't think because you're backtracking and didn't put me in that list that it doesn't count.

some stuff

i posed the question about hoax because I legit think the lurkers are suss (duraframe is next on my list)

after the next deaths I'll have a pretty solid lock on who I think is to blame, at which point no amount of discussion will sway me

:hmmm:

The last one who was trying to have us fight was Grimgravy. Does it mean he is the last person in the picture?

But all the others are kind of dead. Does it point to Grimgravy being the next victim tonight? :philosoraptor:

Why not Corporate_Jew_Master?

At least Duraframe posts something. The Jew Master is just kind of... there. Sometimes I forget he is playing. :|

Oh, so I accuse you. I'm have no reason to doubt you are not if you did accuse someone, unlike Jim.

If Jim is dead and is innocent, I'm pretty sure you or Grimgravy are the killer(to which Nevill is partner then). Why?
This is Nevill accustion(he removed later):
Ok purely to reduce the number of suspects.

I VOTE TO KILL a bear named spigot.

If Grimgravy supports me, we need 1 more vote to hang him.

And this is Grimgravy post right after that:

Then Nevill saw it was obvious the "partner voting the same thing" and he removed his vote. What Grimgravy said:
I'm open to removing / changing my vote.
He's not clear if he should accuse Spigot now.

Nevil then decided to accuse Jim, Grimgravy to not make it obvious decided to vote in 2 person:

I ACCUSE Viata
I ACCUSE Nevill
I have been accusing Nevill since day 1, he didn't accuse Nevill(in fact, no one did, so I was alone there). Nevill accused me after I once again accused him the next day.
Grimgravy accused me AND Nevill, to not make it obvious he wanted to accused me. He did the right thing here, people are suspecting me, not Nevill, so Nevill was safe. Now, he is the more obvious option:

I ACCUSE Jim the Dinosaur so someone gets it.!
He counted how many votes was there and already knew Jim would be killed so he "makes it seems" he's just helping everyone to hang Jim.
Even if Nevill is Innocent, Grimgravy is quite suspicious.
I ACCUSE Grimgravy TOO!

i thought he got excused after not being online at all when orders were coming in the other day? kinda takes the heat out of it a little, but I guess that's just a risk when you do it on a forum.

anyways, bed time. I think there'll be some time in the morning before it's locked in so I'll get any last minute begging for my life in then.

You are making me think you really are on a team of your own. When I was a student, our forum games only allowed mafia to kill 1 person at a time, but they also had a maniac whose goal was to kill everyone, mafia and innocents alike. Sometimes the guy won, too. You'd make a fine one. :M

Here is what you omit:
Nevill I could support any of your three choices at this stage.
Prior to my post Grimgravy posted he would support my accusations to have someone hanged, which is why I requested his aid when I made the choice.

The logic you use: 'he saw he made a blunder and removed the vote' is childish at best. My vote is still there for everyone to see. I didn't remove it to make everyone think it never happened, I crossed it out to show it no longer applies. I do not take back my words in a cowardly manner, but I do change my mind now and then, and I never tried to make anyone think that it was not the case.

You really make me doubt you, man.
