The other 16 episodes of that season were almost universally terrible.
Take Me Out To The Holosuite
The Siege of AR-558
It's Only A Paper Moon
Badda-Bing, Badda-Bang
Inter Arma Enim Silent Legis

5/16 were actually excellent!

Vic Fontaine sucked, but Badda-Bing, Badda-Bang was really good.

Let He Who Is Without Sin is the uncontested Worst Episode of DS9.

I did the math once, it's defensible if you assume you're vigging and dunking people at random.

Pinterest Mom posted:

okay so

assuming 3 scum, no 3p, all lynches on a random player, and all nk on a random townie



then the probability of dying without using the vig is super important and vig should be used day one


but if only one person is confirmed town per day


vig becomes more powerful as time goes on


in either case it's not a terribly bad strategy to use it d1!

Re: KB: That looks fine. I think usually scum are more concerned with attaching a reasoning to their votes, and town vote more freely. And Merk was acting weird.

(Though I will say that KB's defiant "yeah I'm voting this way" reads truer to me than wm's vote)

This point is hilarious, not only because it's contradictory (a gut read is a read without justification by definition), but because merk can use this "reasoning" to call out literally anyone for any vote.

No justification? Scummy!

KB's behaviour at deadline was w e i r d and artificial. Repeatedly popping in to remind us that he'd be okay with voting someone other than merk, and that he wanted to give merk more time to explain himself, long after it was obvious that merk was the only thing that was happening. It reads to me like someone who wants to be seen to be open to other options, not that he actually was.

Pinterest Mom
Jun 9, 2009

Keane, you're now acting like merk was so obviously town and we were dumb to dunk him (which, to be fair, I didn't think he was scum either, though with a lot less certainty), but you refused to jump on to the alternative wm dunk that Exakt and I made viable late in the day. It's pretty frustrating that you're now calling us out for being dumb despite not seizing the alternative.

I don't know anything about this show though

the main bad guys, the founders, are shapeshifters. at a few points during the show, major characters are replaced (for multi-episode arcs) by shapeshifters assuming their identity.

PinMom, why did you vote Merk if you didn't think he was scum? Why do that?

I wanted to avoid a no-dunk? this is a clown accusation.

King Burgundy posted:

Feels like a slip to me. Like he is trying to carefully straddle the line between one side and another.

He does the same thing with posts about my role. Initially throwing shade:


But then pointing out to others that they are probably wrong to look at Taste.

I don't understand what your issue is with these two posts. Because changelings are a thing on DS9, I think it's possible that either there's a scum flavour cop who uses those results somehow (so that's the world where you're scum) or that there are changelings who have replaced players with "town" flavour (like Dax) or maybe both.

I don't know that either is more likely than not, but I think it's worth considering, and I think those are the scenarios under which you or Taste are scum. Asking someone "do you believe this" is a sanity check on their case.

Thread is mad that I (correctly) called everybody dumb for voting merk.

You only did that after the flip though after giving up the opportunity to dunk wall monitor instead the day before. If you had come on to wm after I and Exakt voted for him, it would have been 5-5. Instead, you refused to, saying it wasn't sporting.

merk was the dunk because no other case got enough momentum, and that happened in part because you refused to jump on wm. That smacks to me of someone standing by letting something happen, only to try to take "well I warned you~" credit afterwards.
