Point is, he lashed out and acted chaotically. His behavior now is suddenly measured. He takes a few pot shots to try and throw me off my game then disappears. He's on the defensive trying to stay alive because he's scum this time around. He clearly doesn't care if he lives or dies when he's town.

He didn't try to rile me up last game when he was town. He just caved and imploded. His behavior here is different.

I'm not sure what you mean by we can't afford to mislynch him? (Assuming he was town, which he is not.)

Eli is scum if only for this half assed attempt to rile me up for no reason. This fake indignation screams scum.

If the fear is that mislynching today puts us at lylo tomorrow then no lynching today would put us at mylo tomorrow, meaning we no lynch again.
I'm not willing to commit to two no lynched.

Anyway Elminster won't rage this time, not because he promise, but because he's actually scum and he'll get reamed by his team mates if he throws again with the lead they've developed.

@TheDredPriateRoberts
CDC director Robert Redfield said they do not recommend closing schools days after reports of CDC removing guidance pushing for reopenings
So he does. But this statement came 2 days AFTER the NYC decided to shut its schools. Are you suggesting that the NYC is required to act based on future statements of the CDC?
Regardless of the director's comments, the CDC - as an organization - maintains an entire section of its web page regarding the status of schools:
Upon which the recommendation is a tad more complex than "open all the schools." Specifically, the current, CDC stance on school openings is:
"Schools should determine, in collaboration with state and local health officials to the extent possible, whether and how to implement each of these considerations while adjusting to meet the unique needs and circumstances of the local community."
And the CDC specifically notes that its guidelines supplement (not supercede or overrule) local considerations.
I'm just wondering which health expert and or scientist determined the school closing outweighed the negatives of closing. Or do governors, mayors etc know all this because they are so well informed and knowledgeable?
Questions I'm sure you researched and answered to arrive at your conclusion that they did so without any CDC or scientific recommendations. So my question to you is to elaborate on your research into the matter. How did you determine how these decisions were made and what factors were and were not considered?
from what I've read there are a multitude of mitigation policy and procedures. Where all of those implemented and exhausted leaving closing the only real option? Seems that is a last resort kind of option. I'm just asking, rather than accepting these things like some sheeple do.
No, you aren't asking. You are drawing conclusions and making judgements:
"NYC closes school w/o any cdc or science recommendations (remember believe the science/scientist?)"
So we can dispense with the feigned "I'm just an innocent American citizen asking questions" routine. You've made a positive assertion and I'm asking you where you got your data from. How did you arrive at your conclusion?

NYC closes school w/o any cdc or science recommendations (remember believe the science/scientist?)
CDC recommends State governments work with their local health agencies to determine when it is appropriate to open/close schools.
NYC Health has pretty well defined criteria on opening and closing schools.
So what are you talking about?

Also, he's heavily hinting that he's hunter or supersaint or something like that. Does that make sense to you as a role for Stormbringer? Was Thor lynched and killed the person that lynched him?

FWIW this totally reads as a desperate, reverse-psychology gambit to not get lynched.

Ok, so when you eventually role claim, if your role doesn't literally match up with your tool's use in the movies we should lynch you?

@WaterPhoenix
no, you were like "this is stupid but i don't care so here's my character" so in the end you said your character anyways.
No. When you came in here, at post #81, which is only a few posts after I refused the popcorn claim (#73 and #74) and you said nothing.

@WaterPhoenix
i don't see the point in just vtl ing whoever the popcorn is on, wouldn't it make sense to only vtl if the person disagrees or refuses the popcorn?
Exactly. I did refuse it and you didn't vote me.

@Lunatic
I am not saying it's failproof, and I already said if someone is really good at fake claiming then it's possible to not yeild much. There are a lot of what ifs that could work against it, but there are also what ifs that could make it worthwhile, and those aren't worth dismissing.
My point is you don't have to be good at fake claiming because you're not forcing anyone to actually fake claim. You're giving them plenty of time to come up with a claim, have it vetted by their scum peers, and refine it so it's good by the time you actually make people claim.

@ILikePie5
You’re saying character claiming isn’t worth it, yet you did it anyways? You’re literally by definition on both sides lol
It's because it's worthless that I did character claim. If I felt there was some value or significance to the characters, I wouldn't have.

@ILikePie5
You has clearly signaled you werent interested in claiming, yet you still expected him to vote for you? I’m confused lol
Yes, exactly. If you're doing popcorn and someone refuses to claim, you pressure them until they do or you lynch them. Otherwise what's even the point.
So if Water agreed to the popcorn why did he actively participate in it by voting against the person refusing to claim in accordance with the popcorn?

@Lunatic
Unless you're getting their role claim at the same time, then you're still giving them potentially multiple day phases to come up with one and refine it to make it believable.
You're right, there is no harm in this completely useless action because it has no impact on the game other than to waste time.
But you could say there is some amount of risk into thinking an action has worth when it does not.

@Lunatic
Either character claims lock a person into a role claim or it doesn't.
If it does, then you might as well get that role along with the character.
If it doesn't, then character claims mean nothing.

@WaterPhoenix
well i mean from 11 pm yesterday to 3pm today i've been doing stuffs like sleeping and school.
I'm not particularly interested in when you haven't been able to track the game. Your statement implies you've been keeping track of the game, but haven't been participating because you didn't come up for the popcorn before we stopped doing it.

@Lunatic
What is the point of any of your statements except to be contrarian?
#73 - A post with me passing on the popcorn claim so that the game didn't stall with people waiting on me.
#74 - A post explaining why the popcorn claim itself was useless so no one else would waste time with it.
#139 - Further explanation as to why popcorn claiming was useless along with the futility of trying to stir up activity by voting inactive players (if they're not here to begin with, they can't respond to actions in the game), followed up with a vote for my biggest scum read.
#140 - Drafter List
#141 - Working with Supa to figure out additional scum
#145 - Answering Danielle's question
#147 - Correction to the mod about the vote count
#154 - Expansion on my FOS on Water
#157 - Reply to Danielle about game expectations
#173 - Correction to you about my stance in this game
#174 - Probing Water, my main FOS
#175 - Explanation about the difference between lurking and inactivity (an important distinction to make)
Your trying to play both sides of the fence lol
How so? And what "sides"?

If you think characters are pointless there can't be much harm to it. Other than thinking it's "silly".

There is a difference between being inactive and lurking and Water basically just admitted to lurking. My vote stays.

@WaterPhoenix
yo yo yo i'm active now also, that was because i was waiting for someone to popcorn me but then apparently the popcorn thing fell off and now everyone thinks it's useless but if you want my character i'm the kimoyo beads.
Generally the expectation is that players actively participate in the game, not just when they are being voted for or pressured.
I just want to clarify: You are actively watching the game, but were only going to participate when it came your time to popcorn, then you saw the popcorn thing fell apart, so you just decided to continue to be deliberately inactive?

"Everyone" said it was useless? The only objectors were drafter and supa and they both agreed to it in the end.
I didn't agree to it and I still don't agree with it.

He would be participating in the popcorning by voting the next person in the list. If he was on board with it, he should have voted me.
