Think back to when you claimed and let us know what possibilities you considered when you claimed.

I still don't get why you claimed with 1 vote on you. It never helps at all. If you are a VT then the scum now know not to kill you and have more chance of hitting a power role.

Here is a tip: Depending on the circumstance, responding to the first vote against you by claiming "in order to prevent people from wasting their time on someone who isn't scum" is at least as likely to draw more attention to you than to divert it to useful places. Especially when it is as sloppily done as it was here.jak111 wrote:I just thought it'd be helpful to be more of a meat shield for the scummies, + to get jonty to actually use his vote toward finding a real one.

I brought it up. I wasn't commenting on the probability that you will get roleblocked in the future, I was commenting on the low probability that a roleblocker targeted you. Out of 16 possible Night 1 targets, you happen to get chosen? It doesn't really help the credibility of your claim. That said, I'm not voting you because you got roleblocked. I'm voting you because you basically tunneled on the same people AND you basically OMGUS added me and strike to the possible scummy list because we disagreed with you.ghostly447 wrote:Hold on I just thought of something.

I also said I found it unlikely that you would be roleblocked so early with the players we have in this game.

I do not recall saying anything about it being the reason you voted me. Does everyone here to try build a case, then continue the slaughter even though I have not formally addressed them with a case? I added you and strike long ago. I didnt not want to say anything about it because I had already done a lot for 1 day. When you all accused me of tunneling, I brought it up so you knew that I wasnt tunneling. Now you say its an OMGUS just because I added your name, and determined that my final 4 for going out included you. If I wanted to make a case I would have and then I could see you talking to me about WHY you voted for me. But I didnt, so therefore please leave it.safariguy5 wrote:I brought it up.

I never skimmed in that game and I am not now. I just do not understand your reasoning at all.
This on top of your skimming makes me very suspicious of you. I think you and ghost are probably scum since you always seem to defend him and try to take the heat off him. I would be happy to lynch either of you.
Since the two people who quoted you didn't answer this part, I will.ghostly447 wrote:How am I going to prove my innocence through way of watching?
That is not how a watcher works. Rather you have described the powers of a tracker.chapcrap wrote:You need to watch someone with a night role (perhaps CLEVER) and then the next day, you can say where he went. If he confirms you, then you are mostly confirmed. Of course, that means you have to rely on the person you watch to go somewhere and then confirm it and then have everyone else believe that you are both telling the truth. As of now, I know no one that would participate with you except CLEVER.
Maxleod wrote:Not strike, he's the only one with a functioning brain.
Chapcrap. I think you have played enough games to know that a tracker watches a person and knows where they went. And a watcher watches a person they think will be a victim so the watcher can hopefully catch the killer. And as far as your past argument against me (page 33 near the bottom) you knew enough about the role to use it against me in saying it wasnt as important as a doctor claim. Scum slip, or mistake, I dont know. But either way it isnt enough to try to make a case off of (obviously) so I will leave it be.chapcrap wrote:Since the two people who quoted you didn't answer this part, I will.ghostly447 wrote:How am I going to prove my innocence through way of watching?

Fastposted by strike. Regarding me bringing my original reasoning back up, I did it upon doomyoshi's request to tell him what my original weak cases were on them, and so I did. So if you want to blame someone, the blame does not rest on my head for bringing it back up in my opinion.chapcrap wrote:I will defend myself against your untrue, factually inaccurate, and illogical arguments.
First of all, I never asked for a doctor to counterclaim. I said I wasn't going to lynch CLEVER without a counterclaim. Good luck finding someone who will.
What Doom and strike have said is true. You have targeted the 3 of us (CLEVER, Doom, and me) since the beginning and found stuff to try to argue that we were scum.And the reason you claim to have gotten interested in me? Because I voted 4th against CLEVER... That 4th vote was less than 2 hours after you. And about 6 hours after the first vote. It was the first change I had to vote. So me being 4th,
- Main argument against Doom: Gut feeling? (Awful reason)
Main argument against CLEVER: you don't believe his doc claim (Awful reason)
Main argument again me: I won't lynch CLEVER without a counterclaim (No one will except you!). Let me tell you what I did in the time between your vote and my vote. I finished my shift at work. I get off at 2300 CST (Kansas City), drove 30 minutes home, took care of my wife (she's due in 9 weeks!!!), and then got on CC to play games (I'm down to only 125 active now), be a mod, run tournaments, and play mafia last. Mafia is always the last thing I do. So, sorry that I couldn't vote 2 hours sooner so that it was before your vote.
![]()
As far as your claim goes... It seems believable, but a claim of town watcher is much less believable and important that town doctor. So, if people continue with your lynch because of the ridiculousness of your logic, it's not because they necessarily believe CLEVER more than you, but because doctors are much more important than watchers.The fact that no one wants to lynch CLEVER has everything to do with the fact that you do not lynch a claimed doctor. Also, a little redundant to FOS me when you are already voting for me.
Finally, I'm not going to try to explain your 3 options post. You're the one who is being super confusing for no reason and trying to leads cases and bandwagons with no logic and nothing to go on and then getting mad when people won't follow the ridiculousness.
And jonty, my logic in protecting the claimed doc? What logic? The logic is that he's a claimed doc, you don't vote him. I'm pretty sure that everyone gets that. Even you, because you unvoted CLEVER too! Guess you can vote yourself now.

First off, the character from Catch 22 (Orr) was the busdriver, not the tracker. Now, admittedly this is mistake that I made myself. I was then corrected by Strike or safari or someone. Now, Ghostly has continued to make this mistake, so I conclude that he actually thinks/thought that the tracker was the character from Catch 22. Looking at this, I am seriously concerned, as he seems to be using it as circumstantial evidence in support of his claim. This, coupled with other things he has said to similar ends is now causing me to seriously consider the possibility that this claim is a fake that Ghostly came up with based on these facts. I mean, I get this feeling that if Ghostly hadn't mixed up the character's roles that he would have claimed Gob or something from Arrested Development. I am not going to move my vote at the moment, because I don't want to rush things by putting him and L-1 where anybody could end the day before I am good and ready, but I now consider him my number 1 choice for the day.ghostly447 wrote:Claimed Captain Flume, Town Watcher. From Catch-22 (I believe was the name of it). Same as our dead confirmed Town Tracker. I know nothing about 'Catch-22' except for the small bit our mod included in my role pm. Besides that, all I can hope for is that the town sees no reason to lynch me so I can try to watch some more and hopefully catch scum. If not, good luck town.

Why would it be in your brain at all though?
Regarding the players I mentioned that everyone feels have cause me to lose my sight to the other players around me, I just have reason to believe they may be scum. I posted those reasons dozens of times, and after you make a case, no matter how good or bad it is, you are always wondering if you can actually trust them.
So if 0% of the reasons are valid, and some are pure fabrications, the case must still be continued? Unfortunately, in RL this is true. Michael Jackson will forever be known as a child molester, even though it was never proven. In mafia this shouldn't be the case.
I just personally feel SOME things I pointed out actually were scumslips, and therefore sometimes its hard to let go of the fact that they may NOT be scum.
Which ones?
I do still feel their scum, but I promise you I still go with unbiased behavior into any game, and thats how it is throughout as well.
Prove it. So far nothing you have said, other than this post, has provided any evidence that this is the case.
