<.< You make a damned fine argument against yourself, Toony. The Defense would like a chance to withdraw from further questioning, as our case has been turned on its head.


On a Metagame level, Toony's supposed role does seem like the sort of role a Serial Killer would have, to empower them as they kill townies. Kinda like an inverse Highlander, where you inherit the suckage of everyone you kill along with their power.

Even so, his overt game has been pro-town, in that he has dissuaded me from "defending" him (and thus being jointly incriminated), as well as making a logical argument against himself, rather than seeking to go along with defense of him. It seems as though he is trying to save me from being brought down with him (though perhaps I'm reading too much into this) which seems pro-town to me, and looking more toward the survival of the group than the survival of the individual.

My Scumdar is reading him as Non-Scum, granted that this does not guarantee Town either. It's a peculiar gambit either way.

->OBJECTION!<-
I mean, Extension!

On to the case of Toony versus Town:
Does it not make sense to redirect our lynch from Toony, and at least give him a day to verify himself? Do we not want as many living allies as possible? Moreover, if his role is as stated, we would get to keep powers around after people died. Look at your role, and think if it would be useful to have around after the event that you died. For instance, if nothing else, mine can be used tactically, and would still be of some benefit to town were I to die.

In short, the lynch case on him seems misguided to me, and we would better spend our votes on any of the lurkers, questionably logical people, and/or bandwagoners.

The defense rests.
You seem to be relying on power roles too much. Why should we put off lynching somebody that is acting scummy, just in case he could be useful? The point is that he has acted sufficiently scummy to be lynced today and I am confident that he is either scum, survivor, or Jester. Hopefully the first one.

P.S. Vector, your argument against yourself was incredibly cute. I liked it.

P.P.S. It's also WIFOM as anything. I don't like that.

P.S. Why, thank you.  I do try.

P.P.S. Take it up with the person who asked me to attack myself.

Why? No one's doing anything with the extension you already got.

I say No Extension.

Hell, I'd be up for a day shortening.  There's no reason to wait around doing nothing.

Dude, you're trying entirely too damned hard to save your life to be town.

Day shortening.

And my little brain told me that it's all a matter of degrees, and you're not riding the golden median anywhere near hard enough.

I don't directly take issue with Toony's lynch, but I'd like everyone to be aware of RedWarrior's ridiculous amount of lurking.

It's bloody hard to make a case against him when he isn't here.

I feel like this has happened before, too. Under very similar circumstances...

Also, just to clarify/squeeze as much info out of Toony before his probable demise: You say you're town, right? Not survivor/SK/third-party. Not lyncher, either?
