Yeah. Ernie said it in our doc but I don't see how it would have helped us to bring it up in thread. Clever from Ernie.

This is a misrepresentation. I made a throwaway comment based on the players who were left looking suspiciously like all the familiar names that got discussed in the Discussion thread when we talked about black listing. I'm sorry you misunderstood!

I dunno, I wasn't in the blacklist discussion but you were kind of an rear end in a top hat to me in the Breach and, from my POV, it felt like it was continuing here but with others involved as well. I dunno. Not kosher.

I started with only 20,000 Macca.

Chic, I still do not see the reasoning behind not giving me my action. I posted drunk in your thread during my party ffs. You knew I was out celebrating all day and should have realized I wouldn't want to decide a night action that has implications for weeks afterwards while drunk. The thread was closed.

I understand your stipulation of the deadline but since it did not impact anyone in any way to process it and I in good faith got my night action in at the end of an insanely busy day for me albeit 28 hours after the thread was closed. It seriously impacted the game because I was very very angry for two game days and completely ignored Asiina from then on to prevent myself from freaking out.

So tell me the truth. Did you not give it to me because you felt bad for scum? It's the only reason that sits right with me.

No. I had already resolved the night actions by the time you sent me your action. I'd sent half the results out, even! Literally the only reason the thread was still closed was because my power started flickering and then went out halfway through sending out night action results. The fact my power went out doesn't change the fact that I'd set a night deadline that I intended to keep. I'm sorry that you felt it was unfair to you, but I meant what I said when I said all night actions not submitted within 24 hours would be forfeit. The reason why your action was late was irrelevant, I'm sorry.

if our scum-team didn't implode it was going to be v easy to find the other scum team

Kills scum when he investigates them. Extremely OP because it saves a lynch and doesn't require him to claim to out scum.

A brutal cop investigates someone at night and kills them if the result is scum or, depending on the mod, 3p.

That reminds me though, I did think it was really harsh that MT got modkilled. If you're posting a :smith: smiley with the flip then that's probably a sign that someone's contributed enough to deserve to keep playing.

Even she was surprised that she eeked out enough posts. But she was above the threshold, and if she really wanted a modkill at that point she really should have asked for one.

i will try this in my next game, but i would like to start defining lurking as based on a % of suspicious players someone comments on in a given day

it's arbitrary, and it sure as hell doesn't favor scum, but i think it might be interesting

someone like MMT probably had more insight in one of her posts than scum-asiina did all game

Like, I wouldn't care at all if the thread opened and I hadn't gotten it in. That would have just been ill timing. What you did is consciously ignored my night action despite a lack of impact otherwise. If I had submitted the next day, then too I would understand. That would be me flagrantly ignoring the deadline. But I submitted that night, while the thread was still closed and well before you opened the thread. It was a measly 4 hours. That's just petty.

diqnol just assume that she didn't want to give you information that you weren't tracked or your target wasn't watched in the resolved results she already sent out

I understand where you're coming from. It's just for me, I think arbitrary judging contribution by post count isn't the best measurement because I don't think the number of times someone has posted is the best representative of the amount of effort or impact they've had on the game.

I was pretty on point with brutal cop

How much Macca did everybody start with? I had 30k

Also I don't like faction symmetry when there's two mafia teams, makes it easier for town going into endgame

It was a very nice game chic and I liked it lots!
