Suggestion: do not ever vote until you have confidence in something. Probably 2 scum so it's dangerous to throw them around.

I think Poque is scum. He's being too sideliney even in jokephase.

My friends, if you could pick one person to vig right now, who would it be?

I'm inclined to vote for Poque or Grandi after catching up. More in a sec

everyone else has, or else i wouldn't say it, grandi


mills wouldn't so overtly play diplomacy as scum


i don't think poque would take diqnol so seriously as scum



and diqnol's posting has a certain 'it' quality that i generally find missing when he's scum - he becomes a bit more playful as scum

I don't love this post tbh

I thought this at first too but it's a lot of leaps really quickly and I don't know why he would do that as town.

Poque posted:

I don't really know how to defend against a one-sentence case of "sideliney in jokephase" aside from "nuh uh"

I think Diqnol's posting is a good way to get the game started since everybody is going to inherently be more careful in a game with a significantly smaller mislynch buffer - not to mention the short d1 deadline limit - but it's not a town or scumtell imo. it's easy to see towny motivations, since it's 100% always good to gather reactions from people, but it's also got scummy motivations if he's just trying to throw out a case that is easily waved away by "well I guess not" after the flip. It would be a mislynch that wouldn't implicate him.

i recognize the hedgey-ness of this scenario, it's just impossible to garner alignment-related thoughts around the way the case is presented.

I think this is a fine analysis but I don't know if I see town Poque making it. He's saying things that are obvious and dressing them up to look townie, I think.

Diqnol
May 10, 2010

That is to say, I don't think he is actually invested in figuring the game out.

Diqnol

I think Grandi is scum and I think this

Grandicap posted:

It annoys me that being engaged is a scumtell. I mean I've used to my benefit as scum before by just ignoring things, but responding isn't over the top, it is playing mafia.

I am annoyed that the first time in ages I am both in a game and am giving it the attention I think it deserves and it is coming across negatively.
Also my job sucks, but that is neither here nor there.

speaks to his scum roll more than anything else he's posted. This is definitely a frustrated Grandicap, but do the motivations for that frustration really seem like they're from a place of "you idiots"?

I do apologize though, I thought I would be home all day and then this morning I get an email "Hey, don't you want to go to Tupelo, Mississippi today" and I was like "no not really" and they were like "get your rear end to the airport and fly to Atlanta then to Birmingham then wake up in the morning and drive to Tupelo" and I was like "but my Mafia game!!!" and they were like "suck it"

Yeah. I'll say right now that I just made that up to see what would happen. I think Somber looks bad in his response.

Somber, do you think Mills is scum?

That game is ongoing, Mills, and there are multiple people still alive in it that are a part of this game. Please desist.

No Mills isn't scum because I've guessed when Mills is scum on day one in 100% of games I've played with him and I'm not guessing that here.

Can you base any of that on content?

Secondly, would you be so kind as to explain what you think of my "gambit" now that you know I made it up?

i'm just curious why part of your gambit involved pointing scum at a potential power-role for targeting?

I don't think there are any power roles in this game.
