Venture Bros: day 2

[Drewish]

Andrew, I believe it was me or gib first thing.
Where do you stand now?

The fact is that Aza SHOULD be gunning for people who got him lynched yesterday. That not being the case makes me think that perhaps the second day should end the same way the first one did.

[Mantisdreamz]

amok looking better now

agreed

[Mantisdreamz]

hey zigmen, what do you think about a gonzo lynch?

Like I said earlier, I probably would have a break at 6, which i did. From 7-8 I taught. Now, i'm done for the day, so I'll be traveling, eating dinner, and relaxing 'til around 11. Then, i'll check back in.

Honestly, i'm trying to figure out if your righteously indignant or just hamming it up.

I'm also trying to figure out if you're seeding other BWs to protect yourself.

Gonzo looks to me like he needs to go, but I'm in no real hurry. My top picks at the moment are you, Amok, Mantis, and Gonzo.

I'll be placing my vote on one of them before nightfall. But Right now I'm most sure that you're Scum, despite my earlier inklings that you're the SK.

So, my vote stands.

The thing about gib is, he has backed down off me, unvoted seemingly because I pointed out I could have been on TR without being on ratz and in any case that's not mafia, said he feels better about me "but needs to hear more from me," lists me as town/SK and then says he still has concerns about me.

Re hearing more from me, I asked him to read mantis' posts and see why I voted her, but AFAIK he hasn't done that, and didn't list mantis as townish or scummish. Apart from mantis (which it seems others are fully twigging to why she seems scummy) I have been pretty forthcoming. I'd like his feedback before I lay out my case on her. In any case, her posts today leave me very happy with where my vote is.

Re listing me as town/SK, it seems like a bit of hedging combined with a bit of OMGUS.

Re still having concerns about me, I'd like to hear them. My day 1 game always suffers if I get knocked off course with people trolley tracking on me with BS claims. Bit rich coming from me, but there you have it. Today my game is very solid if I do say so myself.

I've seen this gib aggro before and he was town, so I will keep that in mind. I do harbour questions about him being a SK (if there is one in play which we haven't established yet as an absolute IMO.)

I'm not seeing the amok suspicion particularly, but I'm on the fence about her. She seems to be doing the flavour research stuff, which seems townish for her.

Mantis or gonzo, I'm all for lynching.

@DP: yes, I do think gib could be SK hence MZ could consider blocking him.

@shizz: do you ever reconsider your scum picks i.e. read everything I posted today, or are you set on me for the game?

I can't wait to hear from Aza. And gonzo. And more from DP.

BTW I think I see feck's town game. I'm not putting my mafia cred on the line for it just yet, but he's on my townish list so far. Lynching him today would be very lame when we have gonzo and mantis to go for first.

Irre, you are trolley tracking.

[Drewish]

Well I'm goign to bed, and won't be around for nightfall, so goign to have to just do this now:

##unvote ##

##vote Aza##

Night all

[Mantisdreamz]

One thing that does bother me a bit is I don't think there is necessarily logic behind another blocker outing. 1) If MZ is not telling the truth, then a special has been forced to out. 2) If MZ is telling the truth - there may not be another blocker, and it's just him OR there is another blocker and now scum know who both are. I don't think it'd be a good idea.

mantis if I'm trolley tracking (and I don't see how, I just re-read day 1 and you pinged hard. I'm not the only one to think you are scummy either. Who are your suspects and why?

Who do you think we need to be on? I prefer Gib. Amok, Mantis, and Gonzo seem worthy as well. I have to crash in about an hour, so we should get this going.

Also, what do you make of Andrew's vote on Aza-lou? I wasn't too keen on Charlou yesterday, either. Could be a place to start, if not Gib or the others.

[Magicziggy]

Fuck knows. In these cases, the middle is more often where the scum lie. Not the scummiest. Not the most active.
I'm leaving my vote on amok.

My prefs would be mantis then gonzo then Aza. I'd love the seer to view gib, because although his play is weird-as, the last time I saw him so aggro he was town.

What is going against Aza is not even putting a vote down on mantis, which he could have done. Or, a vote down on anyone, it's not like he needs to warm up to the game. I'm not 100% convinced of a vote on him today, though, as we haven't seen much of him at all. Same goes for DP. I'd prefer the active scummy players to go first.

What say you?

I'm not seeing the scumminess in amok. What am I missing? I must be missing something as several people have concerns.

I was on the wrong end of her highly analytical play last game. She had me pegged. Where's that insight so far? It might just be a reaction to over playing recently, but that's what it is for me.

The thing with Amok is that she's off her Town game. No real scumhunting, and a couple of humorous posts thrown in.

The thing with the Seer (if we have one but expect we do) viewing Gib could work, but what if the Seer has not yet viewed MZ? I'm counting on that to happen as well, if it hasn't already.

I think we should clear Gib out first. That will clear a lot of room tomorrow for us to focus on the quieter ones.

Sound good?

[irretating]

OK consensus is amok is off her town play. She did seem to want to rely on me (voting me mayor) and yes I see her analytical output is down.

By 'clear gib out' do you mean lynch him? IMO mantis is really scummy, I like the odds of a scum hit on her better.

[irretating]

I will go with a group decision, though, seeing as the actual lynch will be a crapshoot if we don't find some consensus for a BW.

Yes, I mean let's lynch Gib.

Otherwise, I could go with Mantis or Amok. Andrew already has a vote on Amok, so probably her first.
