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

[DeathNote]

Why are we lynching a doctor without a counterclaim on Day 1? That's stupid.

Also v/la until Monday.

Do you expect there to be a counter claim?

[DeathNote]

Also wtf scum vig? You don't honestly suspect that to be a role in this game do you?

[Marquis]

I don't know if it's normal but is it really so unbelievable when there are scum dayvigs possible?

I'll talk more later, traveling atm

[DeathNote]

I am not counting on their being a scum team with a vig.

[Nikanor]

a) i doubt that zekrom25 is anything but a town vig. the only exception i can think of is if the scum have daytalk and coached him into making that claim when he did.
b) i doubt that marquis is anything but town, period. seriously, why are people voting him?

holy fuck.

please never design games.

[Porochaz]

I am sorry, lynch Maquis, vig RC. Seems like the best route for today. Or kill yourself. You know, I am not fussy.

vote Maquis

[sthar8]

I made a whole post about that. Least you can do is make a post about why not. I am listening...

Or you could continue being a spectacular vig target, whatever.

[pirate mollie]

dear star,

I know you have always taken care to make sure that your ruthless lying, buddying and subsequent abandonment to watch me get mislynched was as painless as possible and because of that I will be gentle with you. I am sorry you once again got a scumrole it makes me sad.

love,

mollie

hi prozack!

either you're scum (probable) and addressing your post is a waste of time, or you're town with no idea how to play and need to be given a copy of Baby's First Scumhunting.
either way, i don't see how getting into an argument with you would be productive at all. if you really are town, i'd suggest you spend some time reading a newbie game or two to get a better feel for how mafia is played.

[pirate mollie]

nika there is like pondscum oozing out of every pore of your body

[Nikanor]

yeah i'm kinda sick atm

[Nikanor]

but srsly sthar, literally everything you called marquis scum for is a towntell. his ambivalence, his OBJECTION to UT's obviously flawed plan, everything.
if you're going to be an asshole in a game of mafia, you should at least have the skill to back it up.

is this cos star called you a VI cos you are not voting the person you claim to have evidence of scum on? you never answered my question and lets be honest, that is skeevy as fuck

also when I was planning our space travels I thought this might be a good place:



how about there?

[Porochaz]

That pic used to be my desktop pic.

True story.

[RadiantCowbells]

This town is incredibly bad.

Please lynch me and then vig UT.

[Nikanor]

it is about him calling me an idiot. he doesn't even know me.

skeevy-as-fuck is my middle name. i never said it was

hard

evidence. >_>

[Marquis]

how about instead of forcing more claims out of people at lynch or gunpoint like i want to avoid, we just lynch zekrom before he a) gains another night as scum or b) reduces the town-to-scum ratio even further

[Marquis]

This town is incredibly bad.

Please lynch me and then vig UT.

as much as i dislike broadly insulting statements like this, this is probably one of the only vig decisions i agree with. at the very least, his scumreads have all got to be town

you should vote zekrom though because if ut isn't scum maybe his reads will change- at least on the surface, he's engaging/posting i guess and providing content to work with now

[Untrod Tripod]

unvote vote Marquis

fish or zekrom can happen tomorrow. I want this today.

[Marquis]

on the scum vig, from the wiki:

"While a few moderators prefer to defy meta and use Mafia Vigilantes to allow multiple scumkills from a single faction, the vast majority of Vigilantes are Town."

i was reading up on this earlier while thinking about zekrom: if a town vigilante and scum dayvig is possible in a normal game, why can't there be a scum vigilante? i don't see how exactly it'd ruin a game like peoples' reactions seem to expect, since it can be stopped like a normal nightkill with doc/rb/etc factors, and if it's one-shot, it's not insanely overpowered or anything

but this is all taking my original point too far: i still think zekrom is scum. order of what i think is most to least likely: zekrom is scum of some sort, zekrom is town 1-s vig, zekrom is scum 1-s vig, zekrom is town lying about power. his posting style is so erratic that i'm even willing to believe scum partners are coaching him and he's simply c+p'ing what they're typing for him

whether zekrom is town or not, there's not enough to gain by just letting him live and kill- if he's town it's impossible to control his kill effectively, since we can't just all agree on a kill for him to make lest it's actually a scum target and scum have a way of stopping it or it's a town target and scum just lets it happen. if he's town and we don't tell him who to kill, i don't trust his reads (or lack thereof) at all right now. if he's scum, he's already not under town control.

what do we gain by letting zekrom live if he's town? at most, we kill scum, which is incredibly unlikely with who people have said they want him to vig. at worst, we force a town pr to claim at risk of being killed or have him kill a town pr. i'm not willing to gamble the night results and lose more than we have to.

[Ythan]

A suitable alternative is not one that is not as good. GC u r dumb.

[Ythan]

Literally GC walled to make the point that another character "gave me the heebie jeebies" and that I should lynch them instead of scum. And has done shit else lately.

[Malakittens]

Prod dodge?
