Micro 963—Kids With Lungs GAME OVER

[Iconeum]

Rawr!

[Iconeum]

this is me replying to your vote in an overdefensive tone after I've opened the game with an over defensive tone

stop pretending to be overdefensive?

[Iconeum]

is this some kind of British boarding school roleplay

yeah

the R-rated part starts in about 5 pages

[Iconeum]

vote Jake the Wolfie

v guilty

VOTE: pookie

[Iconeum]

i should probably read that saudude poetry but i'm not

[Iconeum]

you sound way too informed to be a high school kid

[Iconeum]

@Not Mafia

Have you properly reviewed the thesis work before coming up with that opening? The sample pm's in the setup information clearly notes what roles we will be working with. The only possibilities stated as roles are the Vanilla Townie, Innocent Child, 1-Shot Vigilante, Mafia Goon and the Mafia Suicide Bomer. There is no jester to be found. But taking your witty traits into account, this may all have been an amusing repartee on your part.

you don't have much experience with NM, do you?

[Iconeum]

lets get rid of harrington insteD

he seems like a killjoy

if i'm gonna have to read posts like those for the entire game, might as well

[Iconeum]

I got prodded??????

Wait until i get to ma computer

[Iconeum]

Jake v suspicious for that post

I also don't want to put someone at E-1

why not?

[Iconeum]

oh right i got prodded

apparently the mod thinks i'm not active enough

let's do something about that

shall we?

[Iconeum]

VOTE: notmafia

he maf

Nah

yeh bro trust me

Nah

i love each and every one of you

[Iconeum]

i really do

[Iconeum]

hope you guys ain't scum tho

i'd hate to execute you

but i would

[Iconeum]

i'd also execute jakie tbh

[Iconeum]

and if that flips scum we can execute harris next

call it a gg

[Iconeum]

go have a drink or smt

[Iconeum]

tho i don't really need a gg to have a drink

if it weren't early morning i probably would in fact have that drink

[Iconeum]

Jake v suspicious for that post

[Iconeum]

boom

nice pagetop

[Iconeum]

i'm gonna get me some of those

as trophies ya know

[Iconeum]

so how many posts am i at right now?

[Iconeum]

only 22?

i'll probably still get prodded if i don't start inflating that really soon

[Iconeum]

maybe i should go full gif spam

[Iconeum]

you know what they say

[Iconeum]

a gif per page keeps the prods away

[Iconeum]

or smt?

right?

[Iconeum]

meanwhile, live footage from scum PT after reading Iconeum caught them before page 5 - probably

[Iconeum]

yeah that looks about right

[Iconeum]

ok that's all for now

i'll just wait until my next prod before i post again

[Iconeum]

WEEKEND VLA

THAT MEANS I DON'T GET PRODDED DURING SAID VLA, RIGHT?

Noted.

[Iconeum]

i got fucking prodded

i had like the most posts in game

[Iconeum]

Rawr!

catching up

[Iconeum]

Inclined to vote Jake rn, but not doing so for obv reasons

Mafia apparently don't have a daychat,

The main thread is now unlocked.

Any private threads are now closed.

Deadline for Day 2 is Sunday, August 30 at 11:00 EDT, or in (expired on 2020-08-30 11:00:00).

this feels very lamist and slip-on-purpose type of post

[Iconeum]

I'm trying my best to game the odds of us winning by doing everything in my power, because we are in ExLo. Execute incorrectly and we lose. We have no vigilantes to kill off mafia. We have no doctors to protect from kills. Ergo, we need to execute mafia today, or we lose. If you think I won't try my best to increase the odds of us winning, then you are mistaken.

the entire jake suggestion and the battling with Winny The Pooky over there doesn't actually sound like scum agenda play
like, what is he trying to accomplish? Get the IC to out so he can suicide bomb? That's very premature. Good chance jake genuinely believes what he's trying to sell imo

[Iconeum]

dude how many times r u going to say we r in exlo

everyone knows we r in exlo

this isn't a newbie game

pooky your day 1 push on The Dash feels similarly… empty like with your push here on jake
what exactly is so scummy with jake slot?

i've had my fair share of what others consider bad mech play, but that doesn't make one scum?

[Iconeum]

I get a sneaking suspicion Ico and luncheon are just waiting in the shadows for one of us to vote each other (and this IC talk doesn’t really affect that if anyone is wondering)

nice shading but ehh

that's what happens when shit goes down during my weekend vla, which is literally every single weekend.

[Iconeum]

if it weren't early morning i probably would in fact have that drink

this is scummy

wanna fight me ?

[Iconeum]

so

5 players 2 scum

if jake scum then gamma prob buddy, he's been giving some push-back to pooky while he was pushing jake
luncheon can be scum with literally everyone
i don't see pooky versing jake like this with his buddy gamma coming in between
probably no bussing going on so not pooky with jake

[Iconeum]

just spewing thoughts - here is the cleaner version i guess

jake + pooky seems unlikely
pooky + gamma seems unlikely
gamma + jake could be a thing
luncheon could be a thing with anyone - pooky seems like the more probable choice because i feel scum are rather to come out gunning then play defensive

[Iconeum]

let's see what luncheon has to offer this game

[Iconeum]

dude how many times r u going to say we r in exlo

everyone knows we r in exlo

this isn't a newbie game

pooky your day 1 push on The Dash feels similarly… empty like with your push here on jake
what exactly is so scummy with jake slot?

i've had my fair share of what others consider bad mech play, but that doesn't make one scum?

I think this post slightly misreps pooky's position on jake?

seems to me that he's just kinda understandably frustrated at the repetition without progress wrt the discussion.

hmm

i actually read that as pooky scumreading jake, not just being frustrated at the lack of understanding his position

[Iconeum]

My gut says that the lack of conscientiousness displayed in stubbornly defending that position in the mech discussion is town indicative.

what exactly is AI about defending one's mech position?

do you think scum won't do that?

[Iconeum]

and what do you think of the day 1 wagon?

[Iconeum]

My gut says that the lack of conscientiousness displayed in stubbornly defending that position in the mech discussion is town indicative.

what exactly is AI about defending one's mech position?

do you think scum won't do that?

to add to this, lunch:

why does jake get a townread from you for defending his mech position, but not pooky who is at least equally defensive here?

[Iconeum]

@ico pooky didn't get a townread for it because his position is obviously the correct one

[Iconeum]

so you townread jake because he is defending what you consider a *wrong* mech play

and have pooky in your PoE because he is pushing an *obviously correct* mech play?

[Iconeum]

luncheon ur literally arguing that being wrong on a mech play is a townie thing to do

[Iconeum]

and i don't know what to make of that lol

[Iconeum]

i'm having a hard time believing that something like

'oh look this player is pushing objectively wrong mech play, this must be town'

and

'oh look this player is pushing objectively correct mech play, let's keep this player in the PoE'

is a thing

not to mention that all of this should be NAI at best

[Iconeum]

VOTE: Not_Mafia

Not_Mafia hard pushing Dashwood for no reason is suspicious as hell, and the fact that Dashwood is at Ex-1 with little effort is concerning, especially when no one has given reason to vote them.

On the other hand, I think scum!jake would definitely write this post

so what is your read on jake?

[Iconeum]

That seems rather unlikely

why?

[Iconeum]

*that was in reference to a suggested ico + lunch scumteam by gamma the emerald

[Iconeum]

oh i'm not suggesting you should townread pooky based on that

my general point is rather that your conclusions are based on NAI reasons for both jake and pooky

[Iconeum]

However I genuinely think its more difficult to pretend you don't understand something and defend a position you know is wrong than it is to defend the right mech play.

sure, i agree with this

but i don't see how you can be sure jake is town defending wrong mech play that he believes in, and not scum that is defending mech play that he believes in

or even a scum gambit trying to bait the IC into outing so they can bomb it like came up

so like i said, i should be NAI and not a townread which is why i'm questioning you so hard on this

[Iconeum]

because when you look at the Boomer wagon, I think jake's progression was odd

Okay you caught me, I’m bussing him, can you help me before I chanhe my mind?

I'm not voting them because I don't think they are scum.

The only way to prove me wrong is to lynch Boomerton

I never said they were town, either.

this is basicly fence-sitting, but it's so early in the game it's not that bad i guess?

I am Harrington Dashwood and i say.
That Not_Mafia for his crimes must pay.

If i am lynched today.
Don't let him get away.

For Not_Mafia to die i pray.

As I have previously stated, I don't find you towny. Who else would you suggest we execute?

i'm not sure what jake was trying to accomplish here, considering he still hammered

VOTE: Harrington Dashwood

This is not my most wanted vote

.

and this is basicly just covering your ass, which is a scummy thing to do especially considering:

Jake don't waste the elimination please

I remain unconvinced. Other people here are valid votes based upon your evaluation.

this doesn't feel like an interaction you are making with your actual scumread

who was your preferred elim yesterday then?

Not_Mafia. That's why I was voting them.

as show here

but it's a difficult read, because the hammer can be interpreted as scummy but otoh if it weren't for it, we would have had a no lynch?

[Iconeum]

this is some very interesting scum-theater you two have decided to engage in

[Iconeum]

this is some very interesting scum-theater you two have decided to engage in

you wanna case something or are you content in shotgun shading and leaving it at that?

[Iconeum]

jake, that's literally why i wrote the 'otoh, we wouldn't have had a lynch' part -> difficult read thing

[Iconeum]

NKA: Why would the mafia go for the vigilante rather than the iIC?

1) scum don't know who is what?
2) vig is an IC but with a nightkill, so if scum did know who is what, it's the better choice

[Iconeum]

i've already checked saudude's ISO, there isn't much in there to indicate why they'd off 'em

[Iconeum]

if it weren't early morning i probably would in fact have that drink

this is scummy

wanna fight me ?

wut

Yeah I thought that might have been close to EoD1 but it wasn’t, so why the late response Ico?

the post was made after my last login and before the EoD1
so I responded at first opportunity when rereading?

[Iconeum]

I don't think luncheon makes sense as a partner for jake - tho it could be like a distancing play

distancing? like the part where lunch townreads jake *for defending an obviously wrong mech play*?

[Iconeum]

ok

[Iconeum]

i don't think i will ever scumread pooky after this

[Iconeum]

yo jake

who scum?

thx

[Iconeum]

ok i'll rephrase the question your honor

yo jake

who do you think is scum and who do you wanna flip today?

[Iconeum]

what do you think about what i wrote in response to your questions?

you don't seem interested in those? which makes me wonder: why did you ask them?

[Iconeum]

"Why did you decide to keep your vote outside of the top 2 Wagons? What did you think of them and why were you conveniently not around at the end?"

IIRC i was in my weekend VLA

[Iconeum]

and, tbf, i didn't notice the short deadline...

[Iconeum]

323 gives me good vibes

you get good vibes from being his top scumread?

[Iconeum]

lunch do you have scumreads?

[Iconeum]

@Iconeum

I don't really have any informed opinions on who scum might be

, as I don't really have a back catalouge of chat to look through.
I think it's obvious that at least one scum was on Dashwood's wagon.

I don't remember asking you questions.

this tone is really what is gonna make me vote jake
it's been here consistently in his ISO

very lamist and i don't think it's town

[Iconeum]

NKA: Why would the mafia go for the vigilante rather than the iIC?

this for example is something you asked out loud to which I responded, but you didn't talk about it anymore

so was it a serious question that you wanted to talk about or...?

[Iconeum]

tracer bullet

i have no idea how to handle your slot

[Iconeum]

ehm

check literally any game of mine during literally any weekend period
tho there might be some drunk posting here and there

i'm never here during weekends, it wasn't a one time deal...

[Iconeum]

and yeah, in a couple hours i'll be in weekend vla as well

so i'll be putting down my vote by then

[Iconeum]

so you were just as wrong as I was

That is irrelevant.

How

Wrongness is no indicator of scum.

???

We are in ExLo. We have precisely 0 room for error here.

If we misexecute, none of your thoughts matter.

Also, let me remind you what we are in: ExLo. Which means that any incorrect vote can pretty much fuck us over of the mafia react fast enough.

@gamma

[Iconeum]

yeah everyone seemingly agreeing jake is the wolf seems a little easy

[Iconeum]

tho with no votes, it's hard to tell if there's bussing going on

[Iconeum]

there's a theory on why jake can be a *very specific* role which is being bussed tho

[Iconeum]

VOTE: jake

weekend vla

back on monday

still here for a couple hours

[Iconeum]

noted

[Iconeum]

can you like

engage with me over the stuff about the thing

[Iconeum]

NKA: Why would the mafia go for the vigilante rather than the iIC?

so was it a serious question that you wanted to talk about or...?

this is the thing about the stuff

[Iconeum]

it really reads like ur trying to act busy, because you seem to have forgotten about it entirely

[Iconeum]

Gg

Frustration was faked, I was slightly annoyed yes but thought it would be fun to spam at the time

[Iconeum]

Yeah pooky was amazing

[Iconeum]

That in char detective was great
