It said half scum not scum. None of us knew what that meant, but I think you're taking this a bit too hard.

Hey all, I apologise for confusion here. I'm sure most of you know this is my first time running a game and I hope you'll spare me some flak if you feel that I've hosed up and haven't been clear enough. OP says there are three scum. This is true in that there are only ever up to 3 scum in play at one time. As I believe most of you know, it is normal for temple games to have 4 scum total. It is entirely possible to play the game all the way through with 3 scum total, yet it is possible to trigger an event in which a jailed scum is replaced via role re-alignment. Let me explain: tpink was an intimidated character - a special role. If he was the first or second scum, to be jailed, another player at random would be intimidated by the remaining scum and their alignment changed to scum. IF tpink was the last to be jailed, there would be no replacement. In this case, tpink was the first scum to be jailed and therefore someone who was town has now become intimidated and is therefore now scum aligned. I tried to convey this in tpinks flip (perhaps not obvious enough) but I'm posting this here to clear up any confusion. I'd like to see this game continue but if anyone feels this has broken the experience for them then I understand, and I am sorry for being a crappy, cryptic mod. I'm happy to provide a deadline extension if you wish to discuss this further before deciding if you want to carry on or not.

I don't think that's a great mechanic no, so if anyone else wants to bail I don't wanna make em out to be spoilsport. But for the record I am willing to play through it. I mean there's still two people out there we haven't found who've been scum all along. If we couldn't find them in time we'd be stuffed anyway. Even if we lined em up one-two and got em fast as possible, we'd still have a bit more content by then to try and catch the last one in the new gamestate.

Yeah it’s weird but no worse than death millers or cults or whatever. A game like this would normally have 4 scum anyway, it’s just a bit harder since you have to discount earlier town-appearing play but eh that’s fine as someone said there are still 2 people to look for who have been scum since the get go

Votecount for Day 5 Bifauxnen (1): JOHN CENA JOHN CENA (1): JOHN CENA, Not Voting (6): Amoeba102, cheese sandwich, DGK2000, Hal Incandenza, Sandwolf, Squiggly With 8 alive, it's 5 votes to execute. The current deadline is September 18th, 2020 at 9:24 a.m. BST -- that's in about 10 hours, 6 minutes. You can only vote for: - JOHN CENA - Bifauxnen - Sandwolf - Amoeba102 NOTE Remember that each team has two one-shot commands available (assuming they have not yet been used): The team on the stand can call ##OBJECTION TEAM-n to switch with another team (team-n). This removes themselves from the stand and puts team-n in their place, resetting the 24 hour deadline. Any team can call ##MOVETOSTRIKE to extend the deadline by 24 hours.

At this point any ah yuhs up fah the vote could be a devil in disguise Ah got a more good hearted an' god fearin' vibe off a Mistuh Sandwolf earlier in tha game, but now it does sure look like he's phonin' it in Mistuh bif, ah believe Mistuh Cena already declared mah thoughts from outside a all this an I did turn off my ears durin' that big bickerin' you an Mistuh merk did. Ah haven't truly been able tah turn em back on since, though I do be tryin' Mistuh amoeba I must alsa read again.

Ah took a gander at ya posts an ah don't see the hard push on Mistuh tpink ovah so long as an original devil, but at this point ya may be inhabited by some sort a evil spirits an' that is somethin' that can't be discounted for nobody. Ah admit that ah am a bit influenced by Mistuh Voodoo commentin' on ya in a negative way considerin' that I was unsure about trustin' his judgement but with his past fully in view it was worth revisitin' But he also helped tah convince me away from the righteous sentencin' so ah am forced to declare that he was only a man, a man with good intent but barely a wit about him Ah am more inclined tah vote Mistuh Sandwolf but ah still need tah read Mistuh amoeba's past recahds

Okay Squiggly this is a lot a lot of words to end up with: you maybe think I’m scum? Do you think Bif is scummy or not? Take a stance. Don’t talk about Voodoo’s reads, do you think Bif is scummy or not?

Ah think that you have disappeared an' ah don't get a good sense off of you like ah did earlier in tha game An I do not think Bif is an original devil based on his suspicions on Mistuh tpink from early on, but ah have not actually read anythin' he's written since he made Mistuh Merk leave. That whole situation made me lose some sort a interest I must admit. But his inna evil would only have come out today an he seems tah be readin' consistently with his earlier play. Ah do not think he's an evil man at this time, no sir

Since tpink got lunched watching how he’s responded after how he was acting prior to the lunch I’m wavering on cena a bit. I don’t know that I’d expect scum to respond to it with the humility he has and he doesn’t really seem to be considering self preservation at all. I don’t like this I also don’t like that he called on a team that I mostly have positive reads on. I haven’t looked into any of them individually very critically yet though and plan to once I’m home. I mostly checked out of merk v bif aside from merk bringing it up oot before he left I was hoping to dive into squiggly today more than anyone else. I feel like there’s a scum between him and cena and I don’t like that we’ve needed to rely on cena and voodoo for proper reads on him. I really don’t like that the day was ended early yesterday before voodoo was able to respond to any of the questions or votes on him. Especially when there isn’t any danger of a no lunch in this game it was just really unnecessary Cena might still be the right call today. I need to read into this a bit, I have a small work package I need to finish and then I can leave so I’ll probably be home in about an hour

Tpink was original scum. Looking at tpink v cheese - tpink was 5/6 and VF and Squiggly both dropped off of their votes on them to put make cheese 5/6. VF did it first, squiggly followed. VF was town, and I see Squiggly as piggybacking scum. Squiggly did not vote at all during the merk day. Not convinced his D1 vote on tpink was strong - saying they'd jump off to vote SNG to tiebreak - which they ended up doing - belies a belief that tpink would not get executed. the VF execution we don't have the votefinder for but Squiggly was the first vote. And the VF felt like a railroad to me. There was nothing really discussed, and voodoofly couldn't even come in to say anything. As i recall, the hammer was well before deadline. Fake edit: Wait, Cloner has votecounts in their posts too, it;s not just votefinder bot. Yeah we had 14 hours left yesterday and VF didn't get to say poo poo. I feel like momentum was trying to be quick so VF couldn't speak up. So Squigs for starting the day and Cena for ending. They both controlled discussion around their masonry too - which seems like all we talked about.

Amoeba102 posted:Was voodoofly part of conversations to call your own team? Amoeba102 posted:So to get the history right.

Amoeba102 posted:Did either of you quiz voodoofly in your chat? Amoeba102 posted:Quiz has nothing to do with flavour. How did they react to you saying you suspected them? We seems tah be gettin' down to tha end, an' Mistuh ameoba here is pushin' tah limit the choice tah a team ahm now convinced bears no evil. Mistuh Cena does not give me tha sense a' evil, an' leavin' when he would have gained a new ally does not seem tah validate that either

Doing some face value reads on my phone before I finish my work I’m largely okay with bif, she was on tpink early in the game and often and it seems like outside of merk we’ve mostly agreed on reads I think. My impression of her to date has been pretty townie This stuck out though Bifauxnen posted:Anyway, while I am still suspicious of cheese I think we really gotta figure out what tpinks flip is so we can start analysing how people have been moving on or off him for the course of this whole freaking game Bifauxnen posted:That's fair and I'm definitely still suspicious of cheese, hell even if tpink flips scum I got some weird vague gut feeling like it might be a bus As far as I can tell up until this point the only thing we’d even disagreed on was merk and I don’t think you’d mentioned being suspicious of me before this.

I'm not planning to use the objection today because I'm fine with voting Cena. Sandwolf reminded me in masonry of a recent instance where Cena quite consciously faked "unbookmarking the thread" to appear like a fed-up townie. So I think this mechanics outrage could possibly be fake (apologies if it's not, just something we unfortunately have to consider), and before that I thought he was a good scummy-looking candidate to lunch anyway. Amoeba has been considering using the objection though so if they do I hope it's to gun for Squiggly.

I even tried to reach out for your reactions in particular with the. Bojack Bro thing and you seemed to be more hesitant and careful and standoffish overall so I thought oh nooooo what if I was wrong about Cheese But then after the tpink flip I went to properly reread the early movements around him and it seemed pretty bullshit to think you were bussing actually
