Guys, I have a confession.

I have no idea who the Ramones are.

They are a band - The lead singer is made of hair.

I suspect all of the Robomones were made of hair too.

Bring me olives, Poque.

To me, day 1 has always been useless joking and empty posts so people can raise their post count to avoid suspicion. That being said, I don't play this often. Have there been any games with good day 1 discussions not borne from a stupid scum mistake?

I would like your opinion on MC Eating Disorder and Rarity.

MC Eating Disorder posted:

Five even though you're not willing to vote on Rarity yet (and I get that since its evident they're not posting in the thread atm) what do you think about me and Rarity being scum team if we decide to lynch them and they flip scum?

I think this is a really weird question? That's not really an answer but its how I feel about it at the moment.

Also as to the other question ("I just think Five is spending a lot of time asking other people their opinions instead of posting theirs") The game suddenly turned from jokepost to seriouspost while I was at work way more concerned about lynch time in my other game so I am sussing things out in my own way, thank you very much.

Pretend Rarity isn't scum - Who is?

Regardless of whether you want to defend Rarity, that's definitely what you're doing if you are telling us to move votes onto Five and 'one of the numerous people yet to contribute' (lurkers).

I'm not interested in killing five day one, he's been away for ages. The last game I remember him in was Slenderman mafia.

Oh man I don't even remember that at all.

To be honest I wouldn't kick and scream being lynched Day 1, as long as I can get some people posting their opinions and stuff before they do it. One of the things I Have Learned over the intervening years (?) is that I shouldn't take things personally, especially from insane people on the internet.

There's not much on Rarity tbh but while I'm here:


reads like you have decided Rarity is scum based on a scant handful of posts, want us to go through with some kind of Gedankenexperiment where Rarity is Scum, overly concerned with game status, and you seem to be pushing really hard to be leading town. Why is that, I wonder. Why would someone... push to lunch town... on spurious grounds... hmmm

##vote Five

If I thought Rarity was scum I would be joining the bandwagon train against them - I was asking MCed to drop that from his thinking if it was there. If anything I wanted people to run a thought experiment where Rarity was town.

Happy to help

Rarity posted:

Ok I was asked for reads on Opop and MC so here goes.


Oh hey, Opop didn't take long. 6 whole posts! Wowza! This is the only thing that leaps out to me as scummy. Not because he's accusing me, cause he just calls it a scum post without giving a reason for his read. It's easy for scum to just accuse people, it's a lot harder for them to fake justifications. Ok, onto MC.


Well I find it really weird that you asked for a read on you with your first serious post. What were you expecting me to say? Luckily, I went to bed so you've given me loads of content now!


My first thought is that I believe you've played mafia outside SA, cause for someone in their 4th game you play with a lot more confidence than I would expect. Look at the lovely ANarc for example, she's been in more games but she's still not really self-assured in her play. Hang on, I'm gonna go check out your other 3 games.

Ok, I'm back! Even in your first Auspol game, you play with a familiarity to the game that just isn't how newbies play. You were scum in Periphary and played the "i'm a newbie" card whenever you came under suspicion. This whole "picking it up" thing is bullshit, so there's that.


This reads like backpeddling upon realising Comma hasn't really done enough to justify a strong town read. Also, you're throwing out a lot of questions. A LOT of questions.

##vote MC

Thanks for drawing my attention your way :v:

Although to be fair I don't like this post at all. Why do you think asking questions is bad?

Rarity posted:

Asking questions is a good way for scum to fake contribution. Yeah, it's certainly something that town should be doing but only up to a point.

Considering that half the people in the game are complaining that they haven't been able to get any reads at all and are complaining about this being "One of those games" I have to say that I don't think I could agree with you less on this.

I think your post on MC is awful - Its the new winner in the scummiest post you've made in this thread contest. Opop's vote on you actually seems justified and yet it's 'scummy' and you go out of your way to say you say that not because hes voting you. Then you redirect on MCed where I think the bulk of your case seems to be "You seem awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwfully good at this game for such a newbie.... vote".

Five
Jan 6, 2009

Rarity posted:

Yeah that is the bulk of my case, I think it's a legit spot and it looks like MMM's spotted it as well from his earlier comment. Were you this confident in your 4th game?

My fourth game was years ago so I honestly do not remember.

Hey guys I am going to be more active in this game now. I really thought mced was scummy so I'm pretty surprised he flipped town.

Sure, I guess that's fair. It just looks less like you're legitimately scumhunting and more like you're trying to force content.

These two things are closely related.

AN has coasted through the game with no attention on her whatsoever, makes one post that is probably the scummiest thing I have seen so far, and then dissapears. Until I see a change in direction I am going to pick away at that.

To elaborate on mine - I just looked over FV and CapitalistPig's post histories. FV managed to do a good job of going through day 1 until he was replaced not making any serious contentions or throwing down a vote. Capitalist Pig comes in at the end of the day, ends up throwing down a vote on Rarity with no explanation, and then he comes in here today with that piece of nonsense?
