What are your favorite cyberpunk stories?

Admittedly, it's a genre I've not read much of, and since the technological dystopia of the future is going to be grim dark and not neon infused I've not delved much into it beyond hopeful, awe-struck interest in video and roleplaying games which portray it as such.

I don’t know many stories, but I really loved the Android Netrunbwr boardgames. The flavour behind the world was super cool and the designs of cards were awesome. Highly recommend.

I don’t know meta enough to know if this MMT read is legitimate. If she doesn’t post by the time I go to bed, I’ll be happy to vote for her cause I still get nightmares from inactivity in Buffy Mafia.

Second thought on reading the thread. imgay is probably scum. They flat out said they aren't keeping it 100 this time. Admitting that poo poo is absolutely what imgay would do.

Also side eying Jimmy floating a lurker lynch. This is a surprisingly active day 1.

It is an active day 1, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t lurkers. In fact, it can be argued that those who aren’t being active day 1 can be seen as more suspicious with the amount of conversation that has happened atm. I’m going to admit I come from a place of bias where I still remember my first game with Buffy Mafia. I don’t want that to happen again.


Toalpaz posted:

5 scum out of 18 players isn't that unlikely, even if one is SK

I agree with this. Balance wise, with the size of this game, I think this is a safe assumption to make and trying to find suspicions based off this alone is stretching it.

So be specific. Who would you cuddle for lurking at this point?

At the time, it was for MMT cause they hadn’t posted in the thread at all. Now that they have, everyone has seemed to maintain some level of activity. I’m leaning towards imgay cause even if they are Town, their contributions haven’t been useful in the past and his activity and content has been less than stellar.

Not a fan of this. What's the logic in saving your vote?

I’m in a similar sort of mind. Quick votes, in my history, tend to be really bad for Town and I want to hear the other side before we get lynch crazy. Plus having more things to pull from is always good. Don’t want one person fully controlling the narrative.

Dunno how I feel about people insunuating that he did declare it, but I’m happy to ##vote imgay cause day 1 always feel like a crapshoot where nothing substantial really comes out and probably is the best time to deal with lurkers or content lurkers.

he's not even lurking

I feel like imgay really doesn’t contribute much to town discussion and mostly shitposts or jumps on bandwagons more than anything. Maybe I’m being too strong on this based on the previous game I played with him, but I just feel like keeping him around for the long run isn’t going to be good for town.

Content lurking maybe but the "I'm not happy with how people are coming to the conclusion that he's scum but may as well vote for him" is a bad take.

I guess more for me it’s that I found him suspicious/detrimental to town anyways, but I don’t know where the insinuation that he declared himself as not town came from like ASF said when they made their post.

imgay posted:

I'm going to stay away from my keeping it 100 meta this game and try to perform to the best of my abilities, this means I will not reference keeping it 100. Now as a disclaimer I'm not saything this because I rolled scum or anything, but because it would be better for me as a player to not confirm myself as town every game because I'm town every game. In fact I don't even remember how to play as scum. Getting to the point:

GGN don't be so paranoid about AA's shitposting, 's good 2 be king

Im guessing it’s from this? I dunno, I feel like I’m doubting myself now since I’m still jilted from his gameplay from Buffy Mafia and I wonder if I’m being too harsh in that regard. No one else is jumping out to me as immediate scum though.

Though if that's your reasoning, how do you feel about Fisk?

I am not familiar with Fisk. I’ve never played a game with them, so I don’t know what his game is like. I’m pretty new here, this is like my 4th game or something? The only two games I’ve completed are Buffy Mafia and Grad School Mafia. I’m going with the devil I know rather than the one I don’t. If Fisk is content lurking and shitposting and there’s no other viable lynch targets, I’d happily lynch them.

I almost wanted to go and read Buffy Mafia but it sounds like hell

Long story short: Town was strong early mostly due to Ecco being like a mafia whiz and managed to lynch 2 mafia and the SK in 3 of the 5 days. Then Ecco died and the game went inactive with mafia killing active players to the point where endgame was pretty much only AA and Sal talking to each other pretending to be town and then voting for someone with the other players jumping on.

What do you think of eccos posting?

Do you think it's a distraction?

What about those posters who are keenly engaging with ecco?

I mean, it’s day 1, so while it is pretty distracting, a part of me chalks it up to day 1 shenanigans. It is intimidating to deal with especially with how quickly people are inputting things. Also, I don’t know how it’s going to eventually result in a read. Am I missing something with the coding or is it a waste of time? If it’s a waste of time, I’m leaning more towards scummy but it’s day 1 and I have a feeling Ecco would be a really good town player once this phase is over.

If she keeps it up on day 2 I’d be very tempted to vote for her though.

Not sure how to feel about the posters engaging. Toalpaz made me raise an eyebrow with he they got Ecco looping and just filling the page, but I’m hesitant to use day 1 shenanigans as full evidence. Then again, we don’t really have much to go off :/

ecco it started off funny, it's still slightly interesting but if it continues tomorrow that'll be raising flags. it generated content and because of that i'm actually more interested in the people who wanted to keep engaging ecco.
just under a third of toalpaz's posts are just engaging with ecco.


would swing to toalpaz. happy with imgay still though. curious what others think on solus

I’m giving Kit benefit of the doubt cause I know her life is generally super busy. She normally tends to have issues with activity expect on certain times.

I’ve been surprised by lack of CPig activity, but he did make the post on busy weekend so I’m giving him a pass. I feel like I’ve barely seen DB in thread. It’s been hard for me to read since I’m tired and there’s a lot of menu navigation. Solus doesn’t seem as active as they usually are, though his activity normally gets him killed so I wonder if they’re posting less to try and be more Town/less likely to die

i would not be surprised if ggn's reaction to aa is 100% sincere. i also dont think it matters in a mafia sense in any way

if our game is going to have an undertone of "well certain posters (me, jfisk, aa) have posted problematically and we cannot stand for problematic posting in the mafia game" then we arent actually playing mafia because now theres an aspect of id politics in the game

and given that i assume literally everyone in this game identifies with a leftist point of view at some degree (minus robecco) i dont think its going to be contribute to the game in anyway

im sorry that saying s n o w f l a k e and following it with a handout joke triggered so many people in this game who are very sensitive to certain bad words being typed (e.g. kek, good girl, snowflake, handout). i didnt actually expect such a visceral response but it probably shouldnt have been too surprising

i dont think it contributes to scumhunting in any way (other than the :twisted: way jfisk employs it) and im ok with moving on from it but i somehow have suspicions it actually will

I feel it’s more like trying to attribute GGN’s reaction to her playing up being scum instead of her being not comfortable by the roleplay is a bit unfair and while we are playing a game, we do need to be considerate of the fact we’re playing with other people who are human.
