Open 876 - Ice Mafia PT

[usesPython]

Honestly I was not expecting a Mala flashwagon that'd be E-1 rn if not for Enchant, that came out of basically nowhere

[Aureal]

Now, to come back and acknowledge it after having spent a few hours working on taxes, or just let it sit while I do other things?

I guess acknowledgement earns me more credit for consistency in disliking fast wagons.

[usesPython]

Results? python posts so much. Like they are way more invested in this game than I've ever seen them before. Does that type of interest come from receiving a red PM?

No fair, now I have to change my scum meta in the future

[Aureal]

I'm trying to pivot off you using furtive's post and if needed, my musing that maybe your overbearing style just innately makes me view you less charitably. It might be a little late though, people are really digging in on your latest flurry of attacks.

You basically said you're not the doc in a post just now too, so I can't really even complain that people carelessly vote you. Though I guess there could be a potential play to distance if it seems like I need to vote you again, a fake claim could give me 'incentive'.

[usesPython]

Never underestimate the power of town doing something stupid given enough time lol

[Aureal]

Yeah guess I maybe could get in on that, he can't be doc after that response.

Night 1 begins. The deadline is frozen until a replacement is found for usesPython.

[Aureal]

The little ice dragon flies free, free into the sky, far apart from any others of its kind or their eccentricities~

Spotting a disturbance below, it seizes the opportunity to remove it~

Aureal drops a very large icicle on osuka

[Alianna]

Received.

[Alianna]

yessiree replaces usesPython. The night deadline has resumed and is now in approximately 48 hours.

[yessiree]

wow i did not expect a scum role PM LOL

[yessiree]

I genuinely did not expect usesPython to replace out like that as scum and I fully expected to replace into a town slot haha

[Aureal]

*shrug* I dunno! They had exams and maybe were actually tilted. Hello, anyway!

[yessiree]

hello

[yessiree]

thats the thing, i thought the tilt with osuka was genuine town frustration, cause no way they weren't gonna capitalize on that

[yessiree]

God I love powerwolfing

guess this explains it, they were playing a pretty decent scum game, kinda scary not gonna lie

[Aureal]

So you've read some of the game I take it?

[yessiree]

i was trying to find out why they replaced out, so i only skimmed python's ISO, it had plenty of substance and they seemed motivated to game solve. on top of being a hyperactive poster, so i was townreading them for sure

[yessiree]

especially the last 2 posts showing genuine emotions which i think are very very hard to replicate as scum

people tend to townread that for sure

[yessiree]

actually im probably gonna pivot off that as a reason to replace into the slot

something like "python v osuka did not seem like SvS scum theater, osuka being abrasive isn't AI, but i associate abrasiveness in general as more town-AI, python v osuka most likely to be TvT, etc"

[yessiree]

im also gonna pretend i did not read much of the game when d2 starts because "just look at my slot is so townie thats why i replaced in!"

and i thought i had a pretty high likelihood of being nk'ed because reasons haha

[Aureal]

Well you still could be, there's another scum team out there.

I actually was thinking that could be a good defense for Python but I didn't want to have to put it out there if not needed. So you've got the perfect opportunity to say that maybe Python was playing so aggressively without regard to how they look because there was two nightkills in play and they think most Mafia are going to shoot obvtown.

[yessiree]

So what was the dynamics like between you and python? anything in particular that i should be aware of?

i dont know if i wanna spend too much effort defending python's play since i think thats too much self-consciousness which is scum-AI, im just gonna re-iterate why i think they are town before i replaced in and that i got a town role PM so (shrug)

[Aureal]

I was voting Python most of the day. I'm suspicious of the slot for reasons that may be me over-reacting to Python's self-important attitude (I haven't yet made this explicit argument for why I got off the Python wagon when it hit e-1) so expect me to keep throwing some suspicion your way, particularly if you're going to have "not read much."

After Python hit e-1 the game just went into flashwagon mode. Mala, Kokichi, Black all got flashwagoned and finally it ended on bianco.

[Aureal]

I am looking forward to getting to talk to Black, who said she has read a lot of my games (for reasons I cannot fathom), about me and how I play. I hope Fire doesn't kill her. I will be sad.
