After kicking the current crop of cases around for a bit I've settled on the following: who in the gently caress ever heard of a Doc role that can self-heal two nights in a row? I don't think Somberbrero is going to put a role like that into the game.

Accordingly, ##vote derp

If I'm wrong and actually unlimited-self-healing-Docs are a Thing in SA Mafia games, I'll unvote, but I'm fairly sure no one's using a role quite so broken.

Is it so broken though? I guess it's not typical but in a game with a scum roleblocker it would hardly be invincible.

that hinges on the idea that the scum knows who the doctor is, and/or the roleblocker not dying before they figure it out. otherwise it'd be invisible

Frankly at least one of them is scum. The most likely third option is that both are scum and bussing each other hard to keep one of them in the game.



that would be way too stupid i was under no pressure until his claim, that would be really dumb thing to do as a scum bro. whats more likely is a scum who is feeling nervous, not making many posts, seeing a town pr they dont know how to NK and deciding he might as well go for it and see if he can take me down with him.

Derp has a good reason for being targeted and visiting himself with the early claim.

Yes I made a post D1 that said "don't target me"

so if you have a dayshot you better use it quick before the scum get it

In fact, p much the only person talking about a vig day 1 was you, who was arguing someone should use it as soon as possible on day 1.

This is what I thought after he claimed Watcher, but then I got obsessed w the idea of a framer - and to be clear, by "framer" I mean a role that hides who the kill was done by, through disguise for example. I believe TNL suggested that at least matches flavourwise.

I would vote Mr F if it's otherwise a no lynch, but I won't vote Derp, at least until we get N3 information.

I don't know, given D1 I think 2 hours to go is a little premature to start worrying about dead game.

I'm still liking derp more than Mr. F!, if only because if Mr. F! is scum and is trying to bullshit claim to try and throw dirt on derp he could have picked so many better targets than derp. We'll see how things are looking in an hour, I guess.

yronic heroism
Oct 31, 2008

The only thing giving me pause is I think imp is acting very scummy and is more likely to be scumbuddies with derp. Derp on his own tho is less scummy than Mr F in my opinion. But really one way or the other we gotta choose between the two and it's suicidal for town to accept a stalemate today.

what better target than someone who claimed doctor and stopped a kill already? he's the scum who tried to kill me, and his kill failed, so now he's going this route.

I would like to take a look back at derp and mr f in relation to other players before making a call either way

I'm gonna ##vote Mr. F!

Magnus has brought up ok points about how the night 1 kill could have been blocked by something other than derp's protect, but putting aside all claims I think he's scummier than derp, and taking claims into account I still think it was very convenient he "saw the nightkill" in response to the suspicion he got early today.

The other thing derp has going for him is he did vote early on flam. Not that scum never sacrifices a buddy, but still.

I find all these references to past games mildy annoying. It's like some type of 'call to authority' that basically can't be disputed.

I'm sorry that you're incapable of meta analysis because you haven't read those games, but you can go back and read other games, or not, and you don't have to take my word for it. I'm not going to turn my brain off and pretend meta doesn't exist.

If you play long enough you'll be making those same references because you'll begin to notice patterns in how certain players approach the game.

imo no, not really. usually I'm noticing things like 'tone' I suppose (though with you it is a total guess since I don't know your normal tone - I haven't had a strong read other than tnl all game to be quite honest), and certain voting patterns that people exhibit early on

I guess you could sit back and analyze game by game, post by post to see, but, why? meta comes from just playing games, really, and so does picking up on the differences between each person's tendencies as scum or town

That's the goal but in practice it's harder to play scum for most people because lying about opinions takes more work than just honestly reporting them.
