VOTE: Korina

[Korina]

UNVOTE: Korina

[Korina]

yea no

[Superb Subtlety]

It's a good wagon though

[Superb Subtlety]

Why the cold feet on it?

-jj

[Korina]

because i'm town? and i suspect we have a janitor based on my role?

[Korina]

because if there is no janitor in this game, or role that fucks with roles in an equivalent way, (or even just no-flip), my role makes zero sense

[TheFuzzylogic99]

@Wheme-Subtle was not fragrantly and noticible being useless and distracting as you were being

i am mixed on Wheme....he seems to be trying a bit more which was the point of my push/pressure. He seems to be contributing a bit more so I am going to back off on the contention that he will continue to contribute tothe game

The apathy of the town is beginning to worry me a bit. Both April and Korina said they are both apathetic toward this game. If they both turn out to be town then this is really bad for the town.Atleast one is prob town as it is very unlikely we have two confessed apathetic scum.

I am very mixed on the Koala . The game is antitown atp... The problem is that we do not know if their ability is town and scum and I have hesitation on killing a possible useful role that might be attached to a possible useless game. Right now they are on my watch list on slots that need to be sorted sooner then later as their role seem like it can easily go either way whatever it may be.

I going to reread Korana and April and see if there is anything I can use to possible sort them atp. Hopefully I will post this later today

[Korina]

I'm only apathetic because 1) it's the weekend, and I'm V/LA every single weekend. 2) the koalawang game just isn't interesting to me. I joined this game to play mafia, not anything else.

[Korina]

I have already softed my role, so if anyone continues to vote me, you are 100% scum in my eyes.

[Korina]

I'm genuinely tempted just to flat-out claim my entire role just to get something going with this game, because this just isn't fun to play.

[Korina]

I realize this puts me as the target for the n1 kill, and mafia likely have a strongman, but honestly, unless something starts happening, I really don't care.

[Korina]

I'm V/LA due to weekend, and I'm lurking because this game just isn't interesting to me atm. Like, once we get past koalawang or whatever, I'll be happy to play.

also this

[Superb Subtlety]

I'm going to continue voting you, noting your tendency to lie about your role

-jj

[Korina]

I don't even think I've ever lied about my role, not that I can at least recall.

[Superb Subtlety]

[Korina]

And also, based on my claim I'm a dog, and what my role is, and the fact it's almost always a town-aligned role, I think you're just scum who wants me out because you don't think nking me will work.

VOTE: Superb

[Korina]

Fr, in this game with a singleball, what point does my role have to being scum?

[Battle Mage]

KOALAWANG

A ROUND OF KOALAWANG HAS ENDED

The winner of this round of koalawang is PenguinPower!

The D1 prize is for us to leash their vote at the time contest ended, so long as it isn’t a hammer.

you chose to trigger a competition which would require you to give up your vote to the 'winner'?

[mastina]

Ali literally just messaged me asking about why nothing was happening in this game
I think Koalawang is probably the distraction here
VOTE: Korina
is always a good vote

I mean while it is good fun, it is basically an extended rvs, so in terms of generating content, it is fairly damaging to that end, yes. There is some content to be had; when Smoke/Mirrors said that those who refused to participate in koalabear were automatically suspect, they weren't

exactly

wrong: most of the players participating I explicitly townread and fairly strongly so now. I think the game was good for generating townreads, and to that effect it was incredibly successful.

But in progressing the game past the rvs, giving meaningful content with reads and reasons, not so much. (To put it another way, think of the pichu/Ydrasse talk: that was fluffy as fluff could be and it generated meaningful mutual townreads between both of them on the other--but while it was good for them generating townreads, it didn't give the game as a whole any further content, and koalaball is similar to that. Gives good townreads, but doesn't generate content beyond the townreads that progresses the game.)

As for the Korina vote--it is indeed a good one, tho April's a better one imo. (Would join on Korina tho, I just think April's got an even better chance of flipping scum here.)

[Mad Hatters Tea Party]

When all is said and done... this is an incredibly bizarre sequence of events.

UNVOTE: Korina as I do not believe a random vote is the best way to go.

VOTE: Rathe is an option I do believe will gain value moving forward.
