And I agree werewolf tends to be 'won' on a mass claim, but it sucks the mystery out of the game for me and also screws with the naive people who start as a town and end up as a wolf because they claimed in like the first hour.

I think i do better running games now. since I ramble stupidly at my lack of roles or impotent townieness and then get myself killed.

occasionally I'll hook onto something scummy and hammer home that point, either being validated way too late. or being embarrassingly wrong. like when I wrote 500 words about the scumminess of someone only to have them drop out if the game seconds before I hit post and the flip showed them innocent.

i remember in the mario game you were actually drawing graphs, it was so cool

THINGS I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH:

1) this post

HiipFire posted:

There are so many scummy people atm and sky coq isnt one of them BUT UGH FINE

##vote sky coq

for obvious reasons

2) everyone ignoring this exchange

Matthew Beet posted:

and not gaspy and not me where we both clearly said we were VT. you just happened to want to lie detect the ambiguous claim and ignore the blatant ones. okay.

and you lie detecting and confirming gwyn had a power role helps how? especially when you're so against role claiming?

SKY COQ posted:

Well hey, you've now given me better ideas.

like, best as i can tell the best argument against coq was that his roleclaim was a weird one and, particularly, that he was proposing to use it in an ineffective way. Well, here he is saying "Okay, i'll use it in a more effective way, thanks for the help". we could have left him overnight to do this and revisited the issue tomorrow, but no, everyone completely ignored this opportunity and certain people pushed to lynch him anyway

3) mith's hand wringing about coq

Mithranderp posted:

I'm still waiting for an answer to my question. how/why is it obvious that sky coq is lying? I can see there's a possibility but I don't think it's a certainty like you seem to

this reminds me so much of the kind of thing i was posting about bif before she got lynched last game (when i was scum). I knew Bif was town and was just vaguely going "heyyyy i don't think this case is water tight". i dunno, just seems like a similar approach.

as for kommando's posting, honestly i'm not too bothered by him voting beet. like, on the re-read it seems pretty obvious that a lynch was gonna happen, there were too many people for absolutely no one to drop the hammer, so if i were kommando i wouldn't have felt worried about frustrating a lynch by voting with my gut

also there's this, which i buy

Kommando posted:

since Anidav said days are 9pm and we were well past that I stopped thinking about it.

also I was churning through 120 post backlog and was calling it as I saw it.

4) Beet and Gaspy's incredible push against coq. if this is a scum play it is hugely brazen.

IN CONCLUSION
i am not really suss on kommando but could be persuaded

i am more suss on hiipfire and mith.

i am conflicted about beet and gaspy.

bif pretty much always sounds scummy to me, might do a closer read of her posts later today

kat reads like town kat to me, doesn't sound a world away from how she was posting last game.

post script

lol @ gwyn for suggesting i should've taken the opportunity to play mafia while out at karaoke, srsly

anyway i'm off to do my saturday morning chores now. will do my best to be back by d6 but 3g reception is spotty in my apartment

Beet, are you still so keen about your mass claim idea or have you backed off that now that the doc's dead?

it's an anidav game, i presume he's put in a nurse for lols

Gwyn do you still trust Gaspy after he tried saying 'oh wow Big must be cop or scum', I really don't know what to make of it cause he is kind of traditionally bad at the more tactical side of this game.

honestly i am really worried that you're never going to get gwyn to make a scum read on gaspy, i just don't think it's going to happen

Freudian Slip posted:

Pass it by Anidav and see whether the person had that ability, otherwise that's a clear cut violation of one of the most basic rules of mafia.

agree. "don't discuss the game outside the thread" might not be in the OP but that's only beause it's such a basic rule that no one ever says it out loud any more

then again anidav might be as lenient with that rule as zet was with the "don't quote from mod correspondence" rule

Bifauxnen posted:

Interesting!

Hope to hear from the rest of the crowd by the time I wake up again.

thoughts:

1) i'm basically not buying anything that gaspy says this game. trying to work out whether he's scum or just off his game. undecided. his last post about FS basically looks like a dump from his notes.txt file, which is weird because gaspy usually puts in more effort. then again, the "effort" he put in early game was being ABSOLUTELY SURE 100% THAT SKY COQ WAS LYING so, yeah, like I say, i don't see what any of us gain from being walked up his forensic garden path

2) the reasons why i was suss on hiipfire and mith haven't changed and nothing has really exonerated them. hiipfire's low level of participation ( i know, :ironicat:

) makes me think they're just letting town hang itself

3) I suspect that hiipfire's votes for mith are to this game what my votes for anidav were in Zet's game. specifically, could be that they're both scum, and hiipfire feels (1) the lynch on mith isn't getting up so feels it's safe to push for and (2) if the lynch does get up and mith is scum, hiipfire can go "hey look, i must be town, i've been baying for mith's blood for a few days now"

i don't know what i think of tirade and kat at this point

not feeling much of a problem with freudian slip to be honest, but that could just be me automatically discounting him because he's gaspy's target

SO

given all that I still want a mith or hiipfire lynch.

as hiipfire is currently voting for mith, might as well ##vote hiipfire instead

reasonably confident putting bif in the town column

Those On My Left: Jun 25, 2010

oh yes, kommando. i will have a closer look at his posts but while he has been a bit weird he still doesn't rise to hiip/mith levels for me.

Anidav has given me the most painful role with conditions, and im playing it loose because im on thin ice as it is. Even worse than survivor.

I'm a 3P survivor, lovers with Mithranderp who is scum.

I'm UMD, she's Betamax. Its a Sony.

We have to be the last ones standing to win.
Thats loving close to impossible so im giving you all a freebie at the expense of my win. Kill me or her, either way you take out a Scum and a 3P whos out for themselves.

my absence was either a masterful scum play or just a busy social schedule, it's really up to you which
