NY 171: An Education in Telling Jokes (Game Over!)

[pirate mollie]

ZEKROM!!! I HAVE REACHED OUT TO YOU LIKE TEN THOUSAND TIMES

AND YOU ARE NOT RESPONDING

I AM TOWN AND I AM TRYING TO GET A READ OFF OF YOU IN ORDER TO KEEP YOU FROM BEING MINDLESSLY LYNCHED

CAN YOU PLZ HELP ME WITH THIS COS YOU LOOK PRETTY LYNCHABLE AND IF YOU ARE ON MY TEAM I DO NOT WANT THIS TO HAPPEN

SO CONTENT. POSTS. READS. THOUGHTS. THIS WILL PROBABLY BE THE LAST TIME I REACH OUT TO YOU SO WILL YOU PLZ STOP IGNORING ME?

[RadiantCowbells]

Garchomp used Earthquake!

Zekrom has fainted.

[Gooner]

Ok, this game is something else. There are a lot of players who are active, which is a good thing, but there's also a lot of spam. I've never seen a game quite like it.

Zekrom: I suspect he's town simply because of how quickly the wagon on him has built up. Seems like an opportunistic bandwagon against low-hanging fruit. That said Zekrom really needs to wake up and actually start playing the game instead of being completely useless. To be honest I wouldn't want Zekrom alive with me in the end game.
Mollie: I'm happier with Mollie than I was initially. She's stopped mindlessly spamming and there are actually some useful posts in with the spam. I liked her thoughts on poro, who I'll ISO at some point soon.
Pacman and fish are two more players who I don't like. They're also blending into the background, not really being talked about in the thread and not doing anything controversial while still having a couple of posts. I would be willing to lynch either of those two today.
The majority of you just need to step up and start playing the game you signed up for.

this is probably the one time i've ever advocated for a policy lynch so zekrom if you're scum you should feel special and if you're town well you should still feel pretty special

[Porochaz]

ISO 17, where you give a read on someone other than elyse, deathnote appears to be a scumread.

Really? The Elyse case is based on just a third vote on an RVS wagon. Im so glad we got so focused on this and any other suspicion is on people who disagree with your read on Elyse.

So scumreads on Deathy, Elyse and Nik. Reasons give for Elyse only, really. Oh and just got to the tman rant, but then as I have tried to point out. That was a bit of random singling out rather than actual scumhunting... I think you have townreads on UT and Maquis but that might be me reading into things.

As I say, for most of these there is very little reasoning, and the reasoning you have given is pretty rubbish.

BTW, I feel like I have given scumreads so I'm confused why you think I haven't. I certainly have them and am completely willing at some point today to go through my thought processes more clearly when I have done some work at work.

4 votes in a 21 player game with 11 to lynch does not a wagon make.

Also there is one thing I'd say for mollie, she has been quite single minded but she hasn't been spamming.

I am interested that with the 3 posts each, which I would define 2 from pacman and 1 from fish as not being really game related, what is your definition of low hanging fruit?

[Untrod Tripod]

this is moronic. can we just forgo the next 10 pages of back and forth competing monologues and lynch a VI? I'm willing to go with tman or Zekrom.

[pisskop]

zekrom. vote zekrom25 for VI.

[Marquis]

is it really supposed to be taken for granted that he's a VI? I mean, it feels like I'm the only one still thinking or maybe even just hoping he's scum. It's not like scum can't just be obvious if they're a new player, anyway

[pisskop]

he's good enough to have a hydra.

At this very early stage of the game I would argue it does.

Like I said, I'm feeling better about mollie now she's spamming less. I do feel some of her posts have been spammy, I'll go back and quote a few if you like.

My definition of low hanging fruit is players drawing attention to themselves with stupid posts.

[DeathNote]

Work now... post later.

unvote

Lost interest in Marq. STFU you're still weird.

Kinda wanting to proxy my vote on Poro.

Will actually catch up again on my break.

[DeathNote]

^That should say proxy my vote with poro, not on.

[PeregrineV]

Gonna start with the past-past Nikanor reads,

@Mollie- Why do I think you are scum this game? Is that feeling strong enough to lynch you today?

You're making a monologue with town. You did that in the game I modded, too, before you flaked.

I was actually lynched, and my team won, so not sure how I flaked.

And my first sentence was agreeing with 127

My second was telling Mollie I think she might be scum, and inviting a response.

And your response means it's not a monologue, but a dialogue, which is always the purpose of posting to the town in general.

[Malakittens]

zekrom. vote zekrom25 for VI.

he's good enough to have a hydra.

Bad posts bad posts.

He asked me in a PM if he could hydra with me because he wants to learn. It's not like he wants to stay new forever. He just needs an experienced person helping him.

[pisskop]

[pisskop]

ok, ill take your word. i was suiting up to lynch him this day . . .

unvote

[Untrod Tripod]

we can still lynch him....

[Desperado]

Mod: please replace me

No problem. Thanks for trying!

wouldnt be voting him if I didnt think he was scum.

[Porochaz]

zekrom. vote zekrom25 for VI.

Ill help him

1. Answer the damn questions asked of you.

2. Post more than a few words a post.

3. Be glad you didn't hydra with Mala this game, she is pretty scummy as well.

[RadiantCowbells]

Monologue. You're not talking with anyone, you're talking to 'em

[Desperado]

sthar8 replaces Albert B. Rampage effective immediately.

[sthar8]

Looks like deadline isn't for a while. I'll catch up tonight or tomorrow, depending on other things.


Hi Prozac!
