Fate please explain why you said this when it wasn't true:
the cancerous vote was the only vote on d1 where you could conceivably say haunted latched on me, iirc the only other time that day me and haunted voted the same was jalmont, and haunted posted his lynch for jalmont really early, and i didn't post a lynch for jalmont until he switched stances on no lynching. and yet you still talked as if we had buddied the whole day when in fact all you could do was stretch one instance when he voted after me into a whole scumbuddy relationship
 
Can you guys not hammer on anyone when I'm asleep?!

Also von, if you are town, reply to jalmont's counter argument.

I gotta go now, will try and read everything tomorrow and cast my lynch.

"Hi everybody! I'm the village announcer! While I'm sad to see the Safeguard go, judging by how the day went, it could so easily have been me instead, so here's hoping we don't repeat the same mistakes tomorrow!"
 
IIRC, the Cancerous and Jalmont were the ONLY votes you guys had outside of the RVS. I don't see how I made a stretch. I identified the similarities between your scumminess and pointed it out. That's something I'm not going to let go especially so early on.
 
why am i liar but when SB brings up the same thing he isn't?

It crossed my mind that he COULD be your mafia partner, but I don't really know him and have at least a little respect for him. Backing you as mafia would be a very poor idea at this point.

So I explained where he was wrong, and hopefully he'll see that.

Notice how as soon as someone other than me shows concern about a Pokeguy bandwagon, Jalmont switches his vote too.


Alright, as Jalmont failed to live up to his written contract that he'd make only one last post if voted for (this is a joke, but I wish it wasn't), I'm going to change gears.

Tomorrow I start a full time job. I'm not going to be as available, and when I am I probably won't have the time (and at this rate, certainly not the patience) to be as active and helpful as I have been.

Indecisiveness isn't bad really. The first NOC game I played I was very decisive. I was so certain who was mafia. I also lost the game for my team. So I see a bunch of people who could be mafia right now, and maybe they all are. I keep asking for outside opinions, but instead the most people have said (outside of Spiffy, Jalmont, and... Bananas I guess) is that they consider me the townest motherfucker in the game right now. Well, ok then. I think I know what I have to do.

Unvote
Vote Spiffy
You can consider this officially tunneling if it makes you feel better.

Initially on Day 1, Spiffy seemed pretty town to a lot of people, including myself. He posted a lot, and at a time when there wasn't much TO pay attention to his arguments seemed reasonable. But there's a smoking gun that we can't allow slip us by.

When he started a lynch against Haunted Diamond, he lied and said that HD had bandwagoned onto both of Fatecrasher's votes. This was the core of his argument, and it almost got HD lynched. No one noticed the lie at the time, I certainly didn't. But it was as simple as Fatecrashers having people look back and check to reveal this lie.

Then Lightwolf got on your case for behaving in a way that felt like he was trying to please the crowd. He's already made one post today mostly telling me things that I want to hear, and it actually lightened up the pressure I had on him for a while, but once it was clear that I wouldn't stop scumhunting him, his tactics changed. More on that later. Lightwolf only stopped lynching Spiffy because "other people agreed with him" (?). However, he never revoked his arguments or felt that Spiffy wasn't scummy. He was merely being cautious.

Spiffy has also been rolefishing like mad. I explained in post #675 why this was never really important. He's put a lot of focus on getting HD's role out of him, explicitly asking for it on both Day 1 and 2. This serves no real purpose for the village. When it seemed like an HD lynch probably would happen, the lynch he started, he suddenly backpedaled and decided to go after the easy Cancerous lynch. If he was scum, and HD flipped village, this could have been very bad for him, esp since the lynch started as a result of lie he told.

And yes, I will keep talking about how he bandwagoned to lynch Cancerous, because he also put a lynch on PokeguyNXB for the SAME REASONS. In a respect, Spiffy certainly had more reason than many others to lynch Cancerous, he couldn't be expected to lynch himself. But it's the choice between him and HD that is very suspicious as illustrated above. But more so than that, after that lynch failed like it did, how can you justify going after yet another player who probably (like I won't soon) just doesn't have the time to be as active as the rest of us? These players are easy to lynch because they can't really defend themselves. I'm not condemning everyone who put a vote on him today, but there is a pattern with Spiffy.

And finally, Spiffy has lied so many damn times today that I should probably make a massive quote post to count them all, but, fuck, man. I've said it in NOC games past, but I sincerely believe there is no reason for a village to lie to get the results they want. At best it gives more power to one player than any frankly deserve, at worst it's something scum would do to get a mislynch. Now he's being kind of childish and just "no you"ing me on the matter, but the fun thing about a game where edits are against the rules is anyone can go back and see his lies plain as day. I even pointed them out in my posts, if it helps. Many have read these posts and decided that I was town, but I don't see why some have come out of it thinking Spiffy is neutral.

So this is what I want. If you trust me, I want you to vote for Spiffy. If he flips village, then you can put the blame entirely on me. But at this point, with us going around in circles, and with Pokeguy as a bad target, I'm going to step up and ask for this.

Take your time if you wish, but before extensions are considered we have only around a day left.

Spiffy said:
Yet he conveniently disregards this when he sees that lying about it will help his cause!!! Also his stupid "format" argument is such a cheap way to try and get around the issue that he lied about me.

Well forgive me for giving you the benefit of the doubt at the time man. My viewpoint of you has changed to the point where I would say that first post was a lie.

Then why did you retell the story like you suspected him the whole time?

My story has always been that he was saying something blatantly untrue. I didn't think it was a lie at first, I thought it was Jalmont being daft. Now after Amianki's argument, in hindsight I can see that he was stretching one big lie. And I've said what that is often enough that Jalmont's "I don't even know what he's talking about" is absolute bs.

[quote"Haunted Diamond"]Also von, if you are town, reply to jalmont's counter argument.[/quote]

At this point it's hard to even read his posts at all because it all runs together like crap. But I've found something I DO have to respond to, so fair enough.

Jalmont said:
Dude you literally make no sense. You sit here and use sensationalist language to make up for the fact that ultimately you don't pay attention to anything I say or actually try to have a constructive dialogue. BTW this right here is a blatant lie considering that I said I would vote pokeguy purely for self-preservation purposes. i explicitly said that i did not really like a pokeguys lynch. for someone who routinely calls people liars, you are clearly lying as justification for a lynch.

Is this your smoking gun by any chance?

Jamont said:
Lynch Cancerous - i feel like your posts have been attempts at being village (i.e. posts that read as an attempt to say village things) when in reality they don't add anything to what we already know. i'm not a fan of recap posts to be honest because even though it looks nice, it doesn't tell me anything of what cancerous thinks about what's going on right now

Hoo boy. How are you going to talk yourself out of this one? In trying to call me a liar, you just blatantly lied. Jalmont says he didn't instigate a lynch against Cancerous, and yet there is a post where he clearly did. Nothing is said in it about voting for him only for self-preservation purposes, in fact, he weren't even on the chopping block at the end of Day 1. If he did go back LATER and say such things, then he was also lying when he said that, as evidenced by post #181.
 
i don't consider my d1 votes on celever and moi random, but spiffy if you insist on seeing stuff that isn't there then that's your prerogative
only a day left? but mithril just subbed in? i guess i must to accustomed to how lengthy d1 was
 
vonfiedler your smoking gun against jalmont involves him talking about voting pokeguy rather than cancerous, how his vote on pokeguy is the opposite of his vote on cancerous, which would mean he did like a cancerous lynch and did not vote him for self preservation, so unless there's another post where jalmont says he didn't start a cancerous lynch i fail to see how that post is a smoking gun? did you misread and confuse pokeguy for cancerous?
 
Ok, fuck me, thanks. He had me confused, as now I'm not sure what his point about Pokeguy even is. Entirely self-preservation for what reason? He had two a whopping lynches against him. And how does that not make it a bandwagon vote? Saying you don't like a lynch, but still doing it, is some crap. And how given all that does that somehow make me a liar? I'm so beyond mentally exhausted dealing with him at this point.

The smoking gun is not a smoking gun, I made a mistake (given that is of the mixing up names variety, and for two subjects who are being lynched for the same reasons, this should not be hard to believe). At the very least, it's not totally unhelpful to point out the original Cancerous lynch vote, and I'm still totally focused on Spiffy atm anyway.
 
I'm most likely not gonna be able to post properly again before the end of the day. Some shit has really gone on irl recently...
 
Pretty much everything von has said I have already addressed so I don't feel the need to repeat myself. If he claims that this is an excuse to only respond to parts of his arguments, then he can reread the thread. There are a few things I will respond to:

vonFiedler said:

I was mistaken about the Jalmont vote. The fact remains that for the majority of the game they had Jalmont as a vote at the same time, and later switched to Cancerous almost simultaneously. Obviously I should completely disregard the whole connection because I made a small mistake in a fairly irrelevant part of the argument! This was not the core of my argument, nice try there. I made it explicitly clear that I found them both scummy individually (if you really want me to go quote it I will).

Citing LightWolf to try and get everyone to rally against me is just fantastic lmao. Throwing out as much shit as possible and hoping something sticks.

vonFiedler said:
And yes, I will keep talking about how he bandwagoned to lynch Cancerous, because he also put a lynch on PokeguyNXB for the SAME REASONS.
This one is certainly a gem. My reason for bandwagoning Cancerous was because we were the only two lynch options. These are not the reasons I voted for PokeguyNXB. Here is why I voted for Pokeguy:
Spiffy said:
Vote PokeguyNXB follows the vote that gets the most traction, nothing else. Warrants an explanation. What convinced you specifically and why?
These reasons aren't even close to similar. It was also pretty obvious that it was merely a pressure vote to nudge him into saying something more than a bandwagon.

vonFiedler said:
And finally, Spiffy has lied so many damn times today that I should probably make a massive quote post to count them all, but, fuck, man.
I invite you and everyone else to scour the thread and quote these "lies", because I have yet to see one other than the mistake I made about Fate and HD's votes on Jalmont. You just made a mistake about Jalmont. Should I endlessly belabor the same mistake and claim that it is a lie? No, because that's fucking stupid.

Von will stop at nothing to paint in any negative light he can find. He's so backed into a corner from being caught in several lies that he is making one last desperate push to lynch me. What happened to analyzing the Cancerous wagon and moving from there? "But look guys Spiffy has been scummy the whole time!" even though I've explained my reasoning on literally everything he has accused me of.

I do not understand how anyone can give him a town read after his performance today.

Also good luck at your full-time job! If you put even a fraction of the effort into it that you have put into trying to get me lynched you'll do great! ^_^
 
i think it bears repeating that when haunted threatened that he was a power role at the end of day 1 it did throw some people for a loop and i feel that votes that would have otherwise been on him were diverted to either cancerous or spiffy, so as much as i hate sticking up for spiffy, the fact that he backpedalled on haunted and then jumped onto cancerous, while it may look convenient, should not necessarily be a point against him.
 
It crossed my mind that he COULD be your mafia partner, but I don't really know him and have at least a little respect for him. Backing you as mafia would be a very poor idea at this point.

So I explained where he was wrong, and hopefully he'll see that.

sick double standard mate

And I've said what that is often enough that Jalmont's "I don't even know what he's talking about" is absolute bs.

um in the first post responding to me you called a section of my post a "blatant lie"

you make no sense and when i ask you to clarify you respond with ??? does anyone understand what "lie" you are talking about or are you just throwing around big words to appeal to people's emotion???

Ok, fuck me, thanks. He had me confused, as now I'm not sure what his point about Pokeguy even is. Entirely self-preservation for what reason? He had two a whopping lynches against him.

me 2 man i think i lost the last of my brain cells trying to comprehend the idiocy in the words you are writing

i too call out others for failing to be able to read and then make excuses when i am misunderstand something. i'm surprised you had it in you to admit to fucking up l o l

anyways von realizes he has no case on me and then goes with the "i'm totally focused on spiffy atm anyways." ok dude gl lol

i still do not understand what is wrong with you in calling everything a lie when you are the one spreading disinformation with your failure to actually read and comprehend people's posts??? (yes pls nitpick my use of the word "people")
 
I invite you and everyone else to scour the thread and quote these "lies",

But I always quote your posts when I respond to them, so I've already done this.

Also good luck at your full-time job! If you put even a fraction of the effort into it that you have put into trying to get me lynched you'll do great! ^_^

I'll have you know I put fractions of effort into everything I do.

Yep. So?

I made a mistake and owned up to it. Interpreting that like this is pretty petty and opportunistic.

anyways von realizes he has no case on me and then goes with the "i'm totally focused on spiffy atm anyways." ok dude gl lol

Did I not make a massive post listing reasons to lynch Spiffy? Did I not appeal to everyone to vote for him? If you want to get yourself lynched, someone else is going to have to spearhead that at this point.
 
Are we seriously being derailed because of this Jalmont shit? I don't have anything else important to say right now but we need conversation moving. Somewhere about something. People need to be talking or we're wasting time. I'd rather talk about something dumb than nothing at all.

Honestly I don't know what to ask. I want to focus on who is the safest village, but that's kind of already been done more. The supported lynch targets are as terrible as they were last time. And I have exhausted all my creativity and critical thinking on my last big post and nothings changed beside this shit.

Someone give me a topic to talk about please.
 
why don't you talk about who you think is mafia since talking about who is village leads to basically nowhere (if you don't use that information to help you lynch mafia)

if they supposed lynch targets are so "terrible" why dont you take the initiative and come up with a lynch target isn't terrible
 
I think that the whole Von voting Spiffy thing is really two towns voting for each other. Both players have been pretty critical of everyone this entire game and their actions and their thoughts almost purely say town. Spiffy might not take all the time in the world to research specific things and goes off memory in his arguments, but I don't see that as being scummy. While I am right now on the side of Spiffy and his game plan, I am still critical of him and watching him the same as anyone. It's just... not enough for me to think he's mafia right now. And not enough to lynch.

I don't think that Von is wrong in the points he is making. I just don't see it as being enough to show that Spiffy is making a logical attempt to disrupt and deceive us. I just see it more to human error and not taking the time to go through these countless pages and make sure everything is correct. I feel that Spiffy just kind of acts and posts when he gets a thought. Doesn't really seem purposeful. And the whole "Spiffy voted HD" thing makes no real sense because I get why he voted Cancerous and we all did the same thing. Any other vote he would have made would have been a waste of a vote and I don't buy it that he was jumping on a bandwagon. Just voting for the only plausible option.

So to answer your question, Von doesn't seem scummier/baseless and Spiffy seems slightly more ill prepared in his arguments (meaning I should probably fact check before I throw my name in with his thoughts) but doesn't seem like he's mafia and manipulating. If I had to rank them from village-mafia it'd be Spiffy then Von but they're by and far my strongest village reads so it's not that much different.
 
For the record I'm not voting for von right now and still believe Fatecrashers is the best vote for today. Von is probably my second choice.

ButteredToast if you think the options on the table are bad then by all means give your insight on who you think should be lynched today.
