WindwardAway: Aug 22, 2022; Set your life on fire. Seek those who fan your flames.

PhantomMuzzles posted:

Because I changed my mind and unvoted you before the thunderdome even happened. And you've still brought up several times that I was still "pushing you" and it's not true and I still can't decide if it's scummy or you're just having a victim complex meltdown.

If you can't handle people suspecting you as scum, take a break from mafia. That's literally the entire game.

I already said im not signing up for anything for the rest of the year, don't worry about it

Anyway bye, if the day ends while I'm not around then sorry/not sorry.
If the day gets extended because of the thunderdome, I'll hammer when I'm back.

I selfishly hope it doesn't end up being that long of a break because I like playing with you, but take all the time you need.

That said, right now I feel like it's difficult to play when there's one person we're not allowed to suspect or they'll freak out.

I must concur that you're overblowing the amount of suspicion on you windward

Also, loving off without hammering leaves us in a bit of a spot, since there's no particular reason to think that the thunderdome will extend the day

I am unsure what to do here. My preference would still be for ignatius to die; he bears much of the blame for loving up the day and i do NOT want to do what he wants. But windward has made it clear that even though she's clearly town, she won't be helpful for the rest of the game. And if someone else hammers ignatius they may perish. No eliming means we don't get ignatius AND windward will still be in the game despite her clear wishes.

Ugh

Yeah but it's like illogical to me
Which, yeah, it's mafia and people have thoughts that aren't my thoughts, I get it
But it's illogical to me to have, at the start of the day, multiple people not believing a greencheck from a player who's also been greenchecked, and also not believing an action cop
I don't get it??
But good luck with scum hunting, maybe you'll discover that I'm right about the pirate radio and also right about Iggy.

I'll set a timer to check the thread 10 min before deadline and if Iggy is at -1 I'll hammer then so I don't miss the deadline.

I think whoever controls pirate radio should keep targeting me because if the mechanic works similarly to how it did in Warehouse 13, that means the mods have to count every single post I've made in my confessional and they've been chatting with me all day (Tsiet is going to move here and Clo wants me to drink chicken smoothies)

There's something majestic about the Thunderdome. The rules are simple. Two people enter, two people leave. Wait... What?

It would appear that there had been much sampling of the wines offered by both Iggy and Wind, so much so that the people who were to decide on the better vintage had passed out without truly deciding which was the best.

Both of these winemakers will continue on and the festivities continue

There was no elimination today. It is now Night 4 and you have 24 hours to submit any night actions.

Cloacamazing!: Apr 18, 2018; Too cute to be evil

There had been no execution the previous day.

A Thunderdome with no loser.

This could not stand.

Eat The Rich, SCUM-aligned was killed Night 4!

quote:

HELL YEAH WE CAN DO THIS! ##girlbosspower ##positivethinking ##ceoproblems

You are Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss, SCUM-aligned.

You are the Girlboss, newly elected CEO to this thread. As such, all important actions must first be filtered through you. As a night action, you may pick a player to ##supervise. You will be informed of their action and target at the end of the night. During the day you may ##call a meeting with the player, ordering them to join you in a temporary masonry where you will have a day-long debate on the pros and cons of their action. At the end of the day you may either ##approve or ##deny their action and it will be performed or not, depending on your choice. You may then complain about how the project is getting delayed just because your lazy subordinates can never do anything for themselves.

You have also removed all the coffee machines from the office to save money. This has no consequences because you are the motherfucking CEO girlboss.

You are SCUM-aligned. You win when your team has complete control over the vote.

Ignatius M. Meen, SCUM-aligned was killed Night 4!

quote:

It's a pinata! Yay! Hit it and cool stuff will spill out!

You are a Pinata, SCUM-aligned.

You are very colorful and filled with some sweet candies! You contain one of each the following:

Lifesaver: Delicious hard candy that let's you ##doc a player.
Lemon Drop: Dropping a trail of lemon drops lets you ##track another player.
Jelly Beans: Share them with another player! Send them a ##message along with some jelly beans during the day! They can reply if they want.
Nerds: You'd expect this to be a candy, but no, it's actually a 60's nerd complete with glasses and a bowtie. He's good at math and will tell you how many scum players were on the previous day's elimination vote at the end of the day.
Rap Snacks: Because Clo just found out this is an actual thing that exists, you get to ##compose a rap (or any other kind of text) to be added to the day opening. It will be clearly marked as a non-mod communication.
A carrot: There's always someone who tries to sneak healthy stuff into a candy explosion! So rude! Disgusted at having pulled this out of the pinata, you will be roleblocked the next night.
As a night action you may ##digest a candy, preparing the powers of a randomly selected candy for yourself to use next night.
Alternatively once per game you may ##coat a candy with poison, poisoning one randomly selected candy. When the candy is used by a player, they will get poisoned and die at the end of the next day phase. If you digest a poisoned candy, you will get poisoned.

If you leave the game through any means, all remaining candy inside you will be distributed among the living players according to the important rules of Dibs:

If you are nightkilled or dayvigged, the player or team responsible for your death will be given a list of the remaining candies and their effect and will be asked to distribute them as they wish. They may keep all the candies for themselves, or divide them as fair as possible.

If you are voted out, your last action will be to distribute the candy according to your wishes, but only among the players that have a vote on you at the time of your elimination.

You are SCUM-aligned. You win when your team has complete control over the vote.

quote:

You successfully snagged the California GOOOO COCKS pennant!

In addition to your original role, you now have the following actions available:

GOOOOOOO COCKS

The fighting gamecocks lead the way: Once per game as a public day action you may ##call a cockfight. Name any number of players in your post (minimum two). A Thunderdome with those players will be created, allowing only them to be voted out.

And when it's rough that's when the cocks get going: Once per game as a public day action you may ##start a cockfight with another player. This will start a duel following classic Sommelier Meeting rules:

First, the challenged player will have the option to cower and submit, handing you their vote for this day and ending the duel and the following day, or to stand proud and accept your challenge.

If the challenge is accepted, the two of you will ##name your second. Choose two uninvolved players and nominate them as your seconds to act for you.

Your second will then negotiate for a peaceful solution. If one of them is able to convince the other's partner to back down and end the duel, they will receive the other second's vote for this day.

If the negotiations fail, the challenged player will ##nominate a doctor.

When the duel begins, both players will submit in their confessional whether they want to ##shoot the opponent or ##fire in the air. Shooting in the air will always spare your opponent. Shooting the opponent will result in an accuracy roll, deciding on fatal damage, nonfatal damage or a miss. Unless missed, the shot's accuracy will not be revealed.

After both duelants have submitted their action, the duel resolves. If one participant is insured, the doctor can choose to either ##perform first aid or ##let them bleed out. Performing first aid will prevent death from nonfatal damage, but not from fatal damage. Letting the player bleed out will kill them.

sharkmafia, TOWN-aligned was killed Night 4!

quote:

Sometimes the old classics are the best. There may be new interesting flavours being created but you can depend on a nice vintage.

You are The Fat Yoshi, TOWN-aligned

Originally created for Warehouse 13 Mafia, this role was carefully stored in the basement of a scum players fakeclaim. Recently discovered, the opportunity to try out this amazing taste has been made available to you

Once per night you can target a player with ##Fatyoshi and their results from that night will be replaced with a psychedelic picture of a Fat Yoshi. Their confessional name will also temporarily be changed to FatYoshi.

Although it would be hilarious to do so, you cannot target the same player on consecutive nights.

You are TOWN-aligned. You win when all threats to TOWN have been eliminated.

WindwardAway, TOWN-aligned was killed Night 4!

quote:

Yarr!

You be Pirate Veale, TOWN-aligned.

You are a pirate (well two unrelated pirates with the same name) and you be digging for treasure! As a night action you may ##dig in another player's lawn. Depending on the player you will either find a useful oneshot item or treasure.

You may use these oneshots yourself, or ##trade them to other players as a day action. If you do this, you will receive an additional dig action the next night, allowing you to target two players.

Distributed among the players there are several pieces of treasure. Should you manage to assemble five of them, you may ##abscond victorious, receiving a personal win no matter your alignment.

While you don't have to, you are highly encouraged to talk like a pirate in the thread. This will have no gameplay effect.

You are TOWN-aligned. You win when all threats to TOWN have been eliminated.

quote:

You successfully snagged the Klein Bottle!

In addition to your original role, you now have the following action available:

A mathematician named Klein
Thought the M�bius band was divine.
Said he: "If you glue
The edges of two,
You'll get a weird bottle like mine."

Nobody really knows where your insides and outsides are. It's a pretty weird construction. As a night action you may ##busdrive two players, switching all actions targeting them to the other player.

Okay, I think that was all of them!

It is now Day 5.

Pi-rate Ra-di-oooooo!

Losing listeners at an unprecedented rate!

quote:

Welcome back to Sovereign Secrets, where we continue our deep dive into the cryptic conversations and curious exchanges happening behind closed doors. This time, we tuned into the chatter surrounding Eat The Rich, GulagDolls, and Shwinn, and what we uncovered was a strange mix of the absurd and the intriguing.

Our bugs picked up the following gems:
"Who told you about my Large Yoshi pictures?"
"I would never lie to you, and to prove just how much I cherish our friendship, here are some quality memes."
"This game is a ride."
"Time 2 watch Utena music videos."

Nothing quite lines up, yet it all feels like pieces of a puzzle we�ve yet to crack. It�s hard to tell where the jokes end and the secrets begin.

And speaking of memes, our spies managed to catch one of those too�a twist on Galadriel from Lord of the Rings. In this version, Galadriel stares intensely into your soul. The caption? "I know what it is you saw, for it is also in my mind." That's right... she knows you saw a booty when you should have just seen the entrance to an underpass. A classic, bizarre blend of fantasy and meme culture.

That�s it for this episode, folks. We�re keeping an eye on these strange exchanges as they evolve. Stay tuned, because sometimes the most innocent chatter hides the darkest secrets.

I think that Eat the Rich is doing a great job of sinking into the background.

Iggy pings me when I absolutely positively cannot comprehend whatever he's saying publicly and apparently privately while on LSD, which seems to be constantly.

Schwinn really could have just gone "ah poo poo oh gently caress I'm gonna die" and popped that Thunderdome early. Uhhhhh except hold on, Wologar and Cubical are both dead now oh poo poo. Now we need to decide if that's because Schwinn knew both were town or if it's just the case that scum wants us to kill them for 'em.

A lot is riding on semi-confirmations and role copping. For example, the Gandicarp thing, Cube's clown paint, and Wind/Shark having a nice little tee-hee-ho conversation in front of everyone without actually letting anyone really confirm any of it. I kinda want to bust these confirmations open but I really only have deterrent power. The triple night watcher would have been really nice to have for a few more nights.

I can understand Hal checking out. Scum won't kill a third party, town won't kill a third party. He's already won the game.

This post comes in response to scum sharkmafia and the first two callouts are scum. And goes absolutely nowhere with it. Is this a good read or a bus attempt?

# ? Oct 9, 2024 21:46

Grandicap: Feb 8, 2006

Calling out 2 scums when asked by a 3rd scum as the 4th scum seems ballsy, but if they were the top 2 on Potato Salads list, why is every other post in their post history about it walking away from the thing? Pushing on shwinn or molly instead of ETR and Iggy?

If town, obviously they didn't know the alignment of Iggy and ETR, but to bring it up as 2/3 top susses, then not following up at all feels so weak.

You wanted to show off your nice new sparkling Red, but it would appear that the bubbles had formed quite some pressure in the bottle. IN trying to get out that stupid platic cork they have nowadays, it comes out with such force that it hits Potato Salad in the head to go right through.

Talk about spilling some Claret
