My only experience with this universe is trying to play planescape:torment while tripping so I'm open to any suggestions with where to start wrt books cause I haven't read anything in a while and I also really like getting into mafia flavour

That's a pretty excellent game to play tripping

I mean this in a very positive way of course

Of course! It would probably be even better to be tripping and play the later parts of the game because there is some really dope writing in there as well as some super funky environments.

I think I may have played it on some sort of hallucinogenic too or maybe that game just made me feel like I was tripping I can't really remember.

Now I want to play again!

I wanna say that chaotic neutral is the lamest alignment but I'm pretty sure lawful neutral is its main competition so I'll just shut my mouth

WHOA!

Way to be like "I will shut my mouth" after already talking poo poo.

It's not like you couldn't have just chosen to, you know, not post that instead of being all passive aggressive.

Hi Hal!

How are you?

Do you think vimes or nova is scummier?

I will have to asses this tomorrow after some sleep, kind of wiped right now, but I will look at them with a critical eye, and also you and everyone else too.

Hi I'm replacing the Hal Incandenza from yesterday who was never around at all to post, sorry friends. 96 hour work weeks are not something that should exist.

I am flying home tomorrow at 7am so it may be a little bit before I can get super back into the game but I will at least give some reads tonight.

Lumpen, I just want to say you have played probably 50 or more games with me so I think you would know if you really looked into your heart that my activity level is independent of my alignment by now. Also thinking I am scum because scum didn't kill me for lurking isn't very insightful or helpful. But I will agree with you that I was worthless yesterday. Hell, I didn't even realize until someone just said it that you claimed miller.

I don't even understand most of what imgay is saying. His posts are nonsense except the one where he accuses Asiina of being scummy for wanting to vig a town player who hadn't flipped yet so that barely makes sense. I still haven't fully digested D1 yet but I assume since MCED was lynched there was at least some reason to have suspicion of him.

Yeah, I think that is a big part of it. I'm kind of uncomfortable with it.

At least when you decide to gimmick shitpost you are actually trying to help the town in some way. I don't see imgay even remotely attempting to help out.

The fact that both Hal and SSV are voting imgay gives me pause. It does more to dissuade me from lynching imgay than anything imgay has said or done himself, which annoys me.

Well that seems silly. This game has very difficult deadlines. I was basically recovering from travel/work yesterday and now this deadline is in the middle of the work day. I'm trying to get something going but I admit I am having a little difficulty getting into everything.

Why are you so convinced TMM has some sort of info?

TMM, Hal. How do you wonderful people feel about garth?

I just looked at garth and while he is low content I don't really see anything scummy, he has offered some opinions that seem like they are consistent with the (admittedly few) thoughts he has.

I haven't actually looked at the reasons people are calling him scummy, going to do that now.

##vote garthoneeye

Keane I can see your points on Kash, but is that one post the only thing that bothered you about garth? That post didn't seem that bad to me, it didn't say a whole lot but it felt like someone who was just being a bit more circumspect. It only makes sense to me as a scum post if he was defending scumbro imgay, but you seem pretty set on not thinking imgay is scum for no discernible reason.

Hal Incandenza
Feb 12, 2004

Asiina posted:

Then clearly you didn't read his post yesterday

I guess you are also voting garth based on that one post. Maybe it is just me but I didn't see that as being hedgey, it was just the type of post where someone realizes they are having a change of thought in midpost and chose to leave that in rather than rewrite everything. I guess you can say it's like a false narrative to make it look like someone is actually making reads, but it's something I tend to do all the time as town so it doesn't read as fake or hedgey to me.

Lumpen posted:

Upon what basis do you think Garthoneeye is Town?

I said it up a bit ago, but his posting has the feel of someone thinking things out in a natural way and I am not saying he's right with everything he's saying but I don't feel like he's faking content. Doesn't feel scummy to me.

Lumpen posted:

:lumpen:EVERYBODY VOTE IMGAY RIGHT NOW:lumpen:

This is still a fine plan.

I still haven't looked over a couple of the popular targets like kash and section but I have bad feelings around Keane. His thought process doesn't make sense to me at times and I get the feeling he's trying a little too hard to be engaged and holding back a bit in terms of brashness compared to his usual town self.

Lumpen posted:

On reread, I disagree with this so much.
##vote garthoneeye

I don't know if that makes me feel better or worse about my read.

I just looked at Kash, the only thing I don't like is when he goes after Garth he puts a lot of pressure on the point that Garth didn't mention one thing when Garth cases him. It a legitimate point but it feels like Kash goes a little overboard and uses it to dismiss everything Garth had said. I find that tactic to be rather scummy.

The rest of his listing feels alright but I'd vote him over Garth of it came down to that

Asiina posted:

Hal we don't usually disagree this much. Are you scum?

I find myself agreeing with Keane a lot in this game.

No but it's possible I'm off. I'm definitely still a little out of it from last week and a lot of my reads are coming out of context. It always takes me a bit to get going when I basically miss a whole day like that. It really does feel like I replaced in.

I almost forgot this right after the hammer.

I almost fell out of my seat laughing... did you actually READ the post you called "a good post" and thanked imgay for? Just because it had more words in it did NOT make it a good post. I cannot believe you legitimately believe this, Please expand on the good parts of imgays post that you were thankful for

Have you noticed that we don't really get full flips? We get flavor and win condition, but we don't know if any of the roles have an action. I mean sure, the watcher and vanillas are obvious, but we don't know if Asiina converts people or if people started with flavor about worshiping the Lady. And since Asiina's flavor win doesn't affect the town win, there is no guarantee that someone worshiping the Lady is town.

Also, did anyone notice that Lumpen didn't flip as a Miller and instead shows up as Lawyer. And again, we don't know if he had an action or not.

And why are you calling me out when your first post of the day was:


Why did you go out of your way to point this out?


Just so we are clear, I do no worship the lady, I was making a joke.

That being said, even you point out that workshipping the lady isn't likely to be alignment related so I don't get why you actually care unless you really are a dabus.

SirSamVimes posted:

Why not? I was theorising on why there were so many night kills. If we assume one was scum, and surmise that one was a dabus, that only leaves one NK unaccounted for.

SSV do you have some information regarding NK's you would like to share with us? Generally people who theorize on it so much are doing so because they have knowledge.

In three minutes after that vote count, FV and Viva both switch to Garth with Viva saying that she would be willing to switch back. So why did you hammer garth with 25 minutes left in the day when there were plenty of active posters and several people (including supposedly yourself) who thought Kash was scummier and was still a viable lynch option? It's not being the hammer so much that bothers me, it's that you did it when there was still some time to hit try to get a push back towards Kash or imgay.

No one was going back to imgay, but I suppose maybe Kash was possible. I just wanted to get on with the flip to see if I was as off as people were saying I was I guess. It wasn't all that likely anyone was moving at that point.
