I actually only joined this game to play with Danica. She joined this site enthusiastic for her first game then was forced to leave due to a mod error. You'll probably notice she hasn't signed up for any other games. My bet is she's rallying an mob over on mafia universe to take over the site and have Bugspray publicly executed. You'd better watch out Bugspray, you'll rue the day you dared kill our good friend Danica.
I wrote a short funeral march for her memory. Ignore the title, I had to claim it was by a more popular composer for legal reasons : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z8y1K0DLdo
I noticed Hectic also expressed his disappointment in Danica's unjust force replace. I for one, am fully swayed by this clear attempt to buddy me. Basically locktown tb. Shame he's probably going to get modkilled for the animated gif.
VOTE: Tayl0r Swift
Has not posted any animated gifs yet so we may be able to exile her before the modkill.There's no reaching. I've become enlightened.-

Wow thanks for the warning, I hate toxic players. I feel Flopz might have his work cut out with him on this site with [redacted] and [redacted]. Shouldn't we just policy lynch him before he makes the game too toxic to play? That way eventually he might learn.In post 11, Hectic wrote:Hmm, I just realised Flopz has followed us into another game, Hop. If people aren't aware, Flopz won the "Most Toxic Player of the Year" award for 5 consecutive years on our homesite. He's probably the GOAT in that department.
I'd tread carefully around him. Don't make eye contact under any circumstances and it's probably best if you use me as a proxy if you want to communicate with him. I know how to handle him and we could save some lives here if we're all cautious.There's no reaching. I've become enlightened.-

I'm fairly sure it's allowed if you just post all of the frames as separate posts. That way you get the highest postcount too, and I locktown whoever has the highest postcount in any game out of respect for their typing ability.In post 10, Hectic wrote:My GiF isn't animated, it's a collection of still images I've formatted into a slideshow.
I think we all joined this game for Danica, so I feel like we've lost all purpose. What do we even do now? Talk about what could've been?
Hello friend, you seem like a pretty nice guy. I really appreciate the 'hi' and it makes me feel really happy that you think it's 'nice' to play with us all. Makes me feel really good about myself. Sadly, this is a classic scumtell so we do have to policy lynch you. You might want to try a greeting that doesn't start with a 'h' next time.

Hectic is the craft kind of guy who can look at your discord and tell what game you're playing. If he makes an onslaught of posts attacking me then points to me not responding as proof that I'm clearly evil then he's probably doing it because he can see me playing something and knows I'm not there to defend myself. Wow Hectic, pretty sus.There's no reaching. I've become enlightened.-

Really not a fan of this post.In post 17, Hectic wrote:Hey, lendunistus! Since you're new, I thought I'd link you to a nifty guide to scumhunting. It's my bread and butter really.
They also offer plenty of options to buy extra ammo for low prices so you can't really say they don't give you the opportunity to acquire enough ammo. You can even get cool custom coloured bullets if you're willing to go the extra mile.
There's actually a glitch where the shotgun's range loops back around when you're at the other side of the map, so the current meta strategy is to rush the corners at the start. Pretty surprised you don't do this tbh.
The footprints are really intuitive and learning them off by heart is a waste of time. It's not hard to examine your foot collection if you aren't one hundred percent sure, and that saves you the effort of memorizing them. Plus, only like one of the twenties deadly animals in the game evenhasfeet. You've gotten to the underwater level right?
I've played the game for over 6000 hours now and I still suck so this isn't true. It's basically all just luck/RNG.
This is actually a good tip, but it's important to mention that you should NOT attempt to follow every blood trail you see. If you work out a blood trail occurred because you cut yourself to produce a blood trail then the game notices and just leads you following yourself around in circles to counter the clearly OP strats.
Personally I prefered the old system where after killing a certain amount of your targets the game would give you audio for several minutes as a reward. Having some sounds available at the start really feels like cheating if you've played the old ones, but it's not as bad as I thought it'd be. I remember having two or three dozen heated eight hour screaming matches with you on message boards about that. Good times.There's no reaching. I've become enlightened.-

I didn't actually check what the 'mod colour' was before I made that post so I sure hope I don't get modkilled. Hopefully bugspray decides the shame of both a force replace and a modkill in the first few hours would be too much.
Sorry, I actually lied there. I know the mod colour is olive. I can't really bear the guilty of having to lie to people. I never lie because it makes me feel like a bad person. What kind of monster would lie to someone else for an extended period of like a month. Except when Flopz kept telling me my entire familydidsurvive the operation then chuckling to himself whenever I asked to see them. He just kept putting buckets full of their organs on top of my door so they'd fall out when I opened it, then insisted I'd find out if any of them survived when he stops putting some buckets there. I'm still not sure how many family members I have (had?), but it's getting pretty annoying and I'd kind of like him to stop at some point.There's no reaching. I've become enlightened.-

A lot of the time people who claim they're doing things for 'obvious reasons' are just lying and pretending there are reasons when they have no reason to reason there's not reasons. Can you tell me what you think the obvious reasons are (except the super obvious 80% one) and explain your reasoning a bit.In post 18, Hectic wrote:Oh wait, this is a scumhunting guide for the game SCUM. Hopkirk was playing the game on discord and I got bamboozled.
I find it really suspicious he's playing a silly video game rather than scumhunting in the real world with us, but I'll give him a pass because he posted something I liked from a few pages back. I can't remember what it was but I recall really liking it at the time.

I'd like to point out that I would have the highest player count if Bug hadn't locked the thread in order to boost their own post count. That was pretty unfair on us budding hyperposters, but I respect the courage it takes to pull something like that off when we're all clearly going to judge him so hard for it.There's no reaching.

I was already planning to make 90% of the posts on page twenty because it's one of my favorite numbers so that's fine.
How was the thing today? I was going to ask you over somewhere else, but I feel if we establish ourselves as real people with legitimate motivations and personalities (and families that care about us) it's much harder for people to launch us.There's no reaching. I've become enlightened.-

I think you're misunderstanding things. There's a rule saying we can't talk about IN game things OUTSIDE the game, but there isn't a rule saying we can't talk about OUT of game things INSIDE the game. I had a pretty good day. Woke up fairly late, did some testing for the bot, then carried on with Strahd. How about you?
Also you probably shouldn't rub the whole 'parents' thing in Flopz face like that after that prank we did went wrong.There's no reaching. I've become enlightened.-

You know me, I'm pretty bad at spumaehunting, so I'm gonna be trying a oppidumhunting approach this game.

I remember you mentioned 'Donkey Kong: return of the Kong' once when we were at that noodle place and they asked us to leave so I probably wouldn't risk it.
There was an issue with a spelling mistake meaning the deputy didn't shown the cards. It's going to be an easy fix though, and the stuff we tested seems to be working okay. Think we still need to confirm flips give the right powers.There's no reaching. I've become enlightened.-

Thanks for the tips, there was a lot of juicy content in Pooky's post history. Did you knew Mini 64 was only 7 pages long? viewtopic.php?f=53&t=228
Pooky's only post in that game was to confirm actually (looks like kind of a false confirmation with that in mind tbh), but it was a pretty well formatted post.
It's also pretty funny seeing theme games from 16 years ago for major franchises that still exist. Just think, South Park was just a series of silent movies and dirty magazines back then, but they still made a setup based on it. Fun fact,Pooky was literally Osama Bin Laden(alive at the time woah) in that game, so I've got all the ammo I need to attack him based on his past history. He also only made one post in this gametoo. Hm, getting to be a theme here Pooky... viewtopic.php?f=56&t=1349
Then you can see from this post: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1969 where Pooky basically copied out the entire sitechat, that the speakeasy probably didn't exist back then. This is pretty useful information for an anthropological understanding of mafiascum.
Overall this was a pretty valuable meta dive. Pooky only made one post in each of the two games I looked at, so let's hope the one he makes in this game is a good one.There's no reaching. I've become enlightened.-

How come you didn't weigh in on our lendunistus discussion? Or take the opportunity to denounce Flopz?pretendsto be French sometimes.
The first point is pretty clearly a lie too.

VOTE: lendunistus
Don't think anyone actually pointed this out explicitly, but the whole thing where they commented on only themselves (when they mentioned it being their 'first' micro) is pretty indicative of a guilty conscience. It's like they felt the need to defend themselves in their first post.
The use of no capital letters in the post to avoid the scrutiny that comes with capitalization and exclamation marks is suspicious too!
My only doubt on the read is that they used the more formal 'you all' instead of 'y'all', although it's possible they saw Pooky's 2003 join date and didn't want to offend him.There's no reaching. I've become enlightened.-

I am not bullshitly majoring in English to discuss the fine points of this language online, especially on a platform where I have the capacity to murder someone because they accidently knocked over my glass of milk. It's bad enough also having to learn Ciceroian latin which has been hamfisted to follow English conventions when, in fact, no body gives a fuck since reading how some dead guy praised another dead guy is not exciting nor illuminating.
In Summarily, this discussion has ruined my urge to do my normal bullshit entrance and delete the MS Paint comic of me killing Diana whatsherface (Yeah that's right, I fucking killed her only to save her from the travesty which is this linguistic discussion). I vote that we forgo this boring case and focus on something much more important which is killing those bickering about the newbie esk introduce tell. If I had a nickel for every time some game has opened up with this classic bullshit, I would have enough to buy a subway five dollar "sandwhich" which according to the FDA is too sugary to actually be consider a god damn sandwhich.

I feel like if you read someone's analysis and somebody refers to that analysis under a title, like newbie entrance tell, you can connect the two concepts. I feel they have intelligence unlike me. There is more to it as well, but I will kept it to myself for the time.
8th. Campaign was gonna be/is a high level prison break. All of us started at half health thanks to rough treatment by the guards, and ofc soc. rolled a 1 on the magic table, resulting in 10 rounds of wild magic. Grease followed by fireball was not pretty.
Why would I rage at flopz yet? You seem to have a history, so just for that comment, flopz will be going into my ToF (Toe of friendship) list until the end of D1. I am putting blind, unadulterated faith in flopz's innocence and revovking your inconsidernt bullying. How do you know that after mention bullying is not what promotes flopz's terrible behavior? You may think you are a good guy, and perhaps your role pm even reflects that, but you got a serious anime character building arch ahead of you.
How does that make you feel Hopkrik?pure unadulterated monsterlike some people. You obviously haven't met Flopz so you're underestimating his toxicity , I'm sure you'll learn soon enough.
Funny story, Flopz and his team mafia team spent over an hour in a discord call carefully putting together a really fake AOE that they thought would get him townread. He went from a small wagon to a universal townread. He was also new to the site and could reveal as an IC. If he'd only managed to launch out one scum then it'd have been a perfect game won from that team's horrific deception.
He was also responsible for giving a friend of mine an explosive device around my other friend's adopted daughter when he clearly new the impulsive first friend would clearly 100% trigger the explosive device, but that's another story.
This is why nobody likes wild magic sorcs, but it was your own fault for being within 20ft of them at that point tbh. Not sure I buy the story since it's what, a 1/1000 that happens? 1000 is a pretty big number. I'm no rocket engineer, but I know numbers pretty well, and that's a damn fine number.
Really hoping your dnd character doesn't end up in the wall of the faithlesspraise Kelemvor
What I was saying about the NET is that they wouldn't have read about that in an old discussion thread unless you named it, but now they know it's a thing. Do scum have daychat, and is this a townslip from me given I don't delete words and realized after the last comma that it could be a townslip?There's no reaching. I've become enlightened.-

I prefer to think of him as an honest cop with nothing to lose than a loose cannon.In post 73, Hectic wrote:I like HoldenGolden for town. There's a gorgeous feel good concoction brewing over there - a healthy mix of a strong, confident tone and a mathematical equation that I believe scum would be less comfortable implementing than town. The combination of both gives a loose cannon feel which I feel is significantly less likely coming from scum - as scum, you are forced to contend with your partners whispering in your ear and also silently sort of judging you whenever you are doing something crazy as HoldenGolden is doing now whereas as town the people who launch you are technically wrong, so it often feels less risky to go off the ranch in significant a way as HoldenGolden has.

I feel like Flopz wants to pretend to join everyone on stage doing the handstands (which is a metaphor I'd characterize this game's dayplay with) because he knows he would as town but subtly it'd be easier for him not to be there.In post 90, Flopz wrote:It seems you understand the greatness of the amazing Kelemvor

This joke creates an outlook of a game that doesn't actually get solved by town and is lost.In post 118, Flopz wrote:Woah, Holden you've gone and done the unthinkable, trying to sort Hectic on page 5
I was going to wait at least another 245 pages for him to get out of RVS so I would be able to better scrutinise his posts
It's not a scummy joke in itself but as town there might be more likely for a different joke to be here.
I try to make these kinds of reads sometimes.

I've just realized there's enough joking around going on that I can just claim my role and people will thing it's a joke.
I'm theTown Encryptorso if I die then the town no longer get daytalk. Obviously, this makes it a lot easier to catch mafia since they're the only ones who can post in the thread, but if any of us forget this and the mafia start attacking people for not posting then they might be charismatic enough to sway us around to the mislunch.There's no reaching.

Uh, is this the mindset you approach games with? This isn't the kind of list I'd expect from you, but maybe I'm just jaded. I'd like to talk about this post.In post 151, Hectic wrote:Here my VIBE reads. Do you vibe with these, Flopz? (They're ordered)

I know Hectic and Flopz from real life. I've played A LOT of mafia and mafia related games with Hectic irl (easily several hundred hours). We also had a dnd campaign going for a while but some 'scheduling issues' got in the way of that. We were part of the same team, team 'team' team, in team mafia and the only person on our team not part of this three person group was modkilled because scum pushed for them to get modkilled for reasons they knew were bullshit.In post 173, Bell wrote:I'm death tunneling this banter.
To be clear how many of you guys know each other from offsite? I'm trying to figure out how much meta shenanigans is going on here.There's no reaching. I've become enlightened.-

I like the reasoning for his push on me, especially the way he pursued it and fully articulated it in 108.

I know Hectic puts a lot of faith in his dice rolling to determine alignments, so I decided to give it a try myself. My method might be a little more confusing on the surface, but let me know if you have any questions because it does make a lot of sense in the end.
That also gives me town Isis, so combined with Hectic's roll I think we can be fairly sure Isis is town.There's no reaching. I've become enlightened.-

Wow it's going to be hard to completely sort Pooky from this. Sadly this is probably the only Pooky post we're seeing this game so we'll have to POE it.

@Hopkirk is there some reason you fosed a Lend then voted me instead?

I ignored your reasoning because Isis seemed town and I didn't like you not liking my townread.In post 306, Bell wrote:Hopkirk is accurate, except I'm a little sad that he thinks I was being subtle by trying to get a feel for the game when *checks watch*
I just got here. If you would like to explain what is scummy about that or what about my Isis vote you didn't like we could discuss why you're wrong if you'd like. It sounds like you either ignored my reasoning or didn't care for it.
Being in the middle of a reads list is more likely to be scum than at the bottom.
Rephrase this please.In post 315, Bell wrote:The alternative is to vote when you feel like it.
What about my second question?
@Hopkirk, I don't think so. Not having a grip and using that for pressure is what you were doing?
*******In post 321, Isis wrote:
I've only ever scumclaimed as town. I've never done it as scum. Not to stick to a meta, but because the opportunity hasn't yet presented itself even though I would immediately take it if I felt it was the best way to get townread, which renders this pattern an imperfect tool for reading me unless you know whether I've perceived this game as that kind of opening.In post 250, Hectic wrote:I don't think i've ever seen Isis openwolf like this before. Do you remember scumclaiming before, Isis? and as what alignment?
I'm trying to adopt the Elements formula for getting modkilled.
I'm confused about how the enabling and backing up works, but I think a lot of us have to do die to actually get daytalk shut off, so I'm doing my part.
Flopz still hasn't posted this game so it was literally just me and Hectic thatIn post 322, Bell wrote:*ahem*
So anyway, Hopkirk.
When you have a bunch of friends bantering at each other it can make feel like you're on the outside looking in. Which might be effecting players outside the friendblock. I like the positive vibes coming from the friend block, but on the otherhand it can make it difficult for other players to be friends with you. Kind of like in class where there's a limited number of people who are friends and the entire class aren't friends with each other. Not that I'm trying to break up the friend block, you seem to be poking at each other to an extent I'm comfortable leaving it as it is and waiting for you guys to come over and say hello.irlknew each other joking around.There's no reaching.
