Open 577: Hope Plus One! (GAME OVER - SCUM WIN)

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Confirming. Haven't I seen you guys from somewhere
Me, Wake88, and House are an official town power bloc. Let's get rolling.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Hydras should signify who's talking out of policy

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Who else wants to join the D1 progressional voting bloc. Any takers?

[St Constantine the Hermit]

When we would form day one town blocs on other sites, we never let more than 4 people in at the risk of attracting scum.
I'm definitely comfortable with newbie and you joining as long as everyone can synchronize their vote.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

But seriously, this shit disbands day two.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Newbie, respond back when you get on. v

[St Constantine the Hermit]

I sometimes forget that site meta is different here. A town bloc is something we used to do on D1 where we would form up and use collective synchronized pressure to lead to better results D1.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

^Lol, it looks like we have our first target. Voting blocs are fun, and in the past have given me great results in games. Have you ever been in one?

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Plus Newbie and Wake are awesome people and I joined the game to play with them.
I'm also confident I can read both of them if need be, so it works to my advantage.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Okay, well I joined the game to buddy with Cain + Able, and maybe you'll reconsider.
I think I've played more mafia than most people here, and I'm telling you they're not as bad as you think.
Actually in the three games I've played in a voting bloc we've caught scum day one everytime.

I like teamwork, and I trust who I work with. I always ask people in advance if they want to buddy up, and if they don't want to, then they are free to decline.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Mathdino, have you ever played as scum before?

[St Constantine the Hermit]

@Wake - I already declined in the message you sent me (before the game).
I don't mind telling you my main account, but I would only feel comfortable if the mod was in the PM.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Yeah, I've played as scum here.
Hey guys, what's your opinion of buddying in mafia? I'm open to discussion before the game starts.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

VOTE: BMWS
For being BMWS

[St Constantine the Hermit]

For the record, I'm not letting this become another mathdino dominated game. He didn't exactly lead town to scum in the last few games he was in, and I'm not ready for the mindless scum to start latching on to him.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Newbie, wake, house. We might not be buddies this game, but don't forget, Constantine always loves you
I'm glad we ended RVS early. There's a couple ppl here I want to PL for shits and giggles, but beyond that, we should wait for more

people

to

come on and be active

.
I'll soft claim to stir discussion. There's no

red

in my role PM

[St Constantine the Hermit]

I wasn't talking about an ongoing game....

[St Constantine the Hermit]

I'm actually policy lynching mathdino because he annoys the living shit out of me and others
VOTE: Mathdino
I'm going to request that he stops talking to me. Please, just shut up. Shut. The. Hell. Up.

#Thankscum

[St Constantine the Hermit]

I reviewed all of mathdinos games. He's been town in everyone he's finished. I also noticed that he's right about 10% of the time.
Seriously. I read all his games. This dominating attitude that leads him to failure may just be his meta.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

PL & AtE isn't influencing me to remove my vote

I legit want him dead. Policy lynch is the only way brother.
I'm not really concerned about 1 vote out of 7 required on me, so

don't flatter yourself

.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

LOC is broken between SCTH and MD. All posts will be terminated.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

I'm leaving for the rest of the night, because mathdino is literally the most annoying player here. I'll talk more about it when the time is right.
Just to note though, he's responding with lots of questions. I don't have good experience with that, so change my PL to a semi-serious pressure vote.

In the meantime, I would like to know the game experience of House, simply because it looks like he's going to be a large presence in this game.
I know wake88 quite well, and I know he gets really involved in these games, but I would like to minimize the length of this day phase, as some of the people on the player list like to draw out the game for quite awhile.
I'm not opposed to people continuing RVS btw, and I actually encourage it.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

I also would prefer it if MD and I ignore each other for the rest of day one, because no one signed up for drama, and it is literally just a "whos dick is larger" match with him.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

I can tell this is going to be a rough one. Both of you, chill and be nicew to each other. Especially mathdino.
I get so sick of dominating players in mafia, especially when they are ruthless and insulting. Chill, or replace out.
Otherwise you're going to make this game very un-fun. I mean it. No one joined to be subjected to this.

For the record, I'm not entirely sure mathdino is scum in this game. He's just very concerned with becoming the town leader, and sees me as a threat to that goal.
I'll talk more when the time is right, and I'll have a couple of interesting things that I can share with all of you, but for now, continue being chill.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Will do wake
You know, I often get this feeling scum jump up on the slightest mistakes.
Acyron and that other guy jumping on and saying I'm wrong, look like they're seeking cheap town cred.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Why was Pastro kicked?

[St Constantine the Hermit]

I would like to hear more from Aneninen now that Day One has officially started. He did post a picture of a pigeon. I think his asking to be in the bloc may have been some joke or comment that I didn't quite get.

I think Aneinen was joking. Some people reacted a little to hard for a pre-game interaction.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

For the record, I agree with Cane about the cheap town cred shots.
I'm replacing out tomorrow if this game continues to have such dominating players.

There's a lot of baggage this game. I would PL mathdino for being dominating. I would PL newbie for intentionally ignoring this game. Besides that, I have a scum read on texcat.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Aneinen's probably town from what we know so far.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Besides that, I have a scum read on texcat.

Based on... ?

Gut

[St Constantine the Hermit]

I'm going to be inactive on this game for awhile until something intresting happens. I'm a little bored, and not enough people have talked for me to get into the game.
Just a fair warning in case it looks like I'm ignoring this game.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

@Cane - Gut reads are the ones I'm most confident in. I'm fine if you don't town read me. I have nothing to prove but who's scum.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

@Texcat - Uh, pretty much. I think a lot of my vote was done out of spite
I'm not a fan of aneneinen, but I agree with his reasoning on newbie.

It is rude to ignore one game and post in others

[St Constantine the Hermit]

I think it's rude to sign up for a game to ignore it. Regardless of scenario.
If you're going to be this inactive, and blatantly post in another game every two hours, then you are being extremely rude.
The only thing stopping me from voting Anen is that he is absolutely 100% right about newbie.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Fishy reasoning, seems like you made all that up to find him scummy and are using the meta argument to get us to believe you.

I'm not getting that feeling. Reasoning, bad or good, isn't really alignment indicative. Motivation and "psychological" tells are.
There are certain ways to detect if NRG was trying to do what you're claiming he is.

I'm not saying he isn't, but it is a bold assumption when there aren't any actual tells to prove it.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

I don't see the interactions between MathDino and NRG as Town vs Town noise

Well... I wouldn't be so sure.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

So I can have that

"Lolz, I killed that jackass who I hate and now he can no longer play"

feeling.
Aneinen is my main scum read. Probably because he reminds me of myself as scum.
I'm holding back my vote on him because newbie is being inactive.

I would rather have newbie replace out than PL'ing her

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Does it really matter if RTR is a hydra/alt or not?

[St Constantine the Hermit]

@Newbie Good idea if you can't be active. I'm not exactly having fun on this game either, but I'm trying my best for the sake of it.
Since newbie is replacing out, we should focus on anen and NRG.

@Rudolf - In case I wasn't clear enough Rudolf, I could use an explanation on your "town vs town" noise argument about MD and NRG.
I reviewed both ISO's again. NRG mentions MD an awful lot since the start of the game, I'm just not sure how confident we can be in what kind of interaction just took place.'

@Everyone - Can we please not do "self meta"?

[St Constantine the Hermit]

I would rather have newbie replace out rather than PL'ing her

rather than PL'ing her

Let's

Not

Policy Lynch

Newbie

I've seen self meta twice so far

[St Constantine the Hermit]

VOTE: NRG
Okay, daily contribution. Goodbye scummers!

[St Constantine the Hermit]

@Acyron - Many people, including me, complained about inactivity.
Lynching based on inactivity is a policy lynch in principal, since activity isn't an actual scum tell.

@Rudolf - Seriously? Just twenty minutes ago you were complaining that MD and NRG contained scum!

[St Constantine the Hermit]

@Copper - Really? I've expierienced town players and scum players do this, but as most people have discovered, I'm not familiar with site meta.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

while parking his

vote on a townie

What makes you think you're confirmed town?

[St Constantine the Hermit]

IF ANYTHING

, RDR appears to be voting me for no reason whatsoever, besides being someone making a lot of noise.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

I'm a hypocrite? Dude, you just voted me for talking about policy lynching, when your vote is obviously a policy lynch.
I'm flabbergasted right now.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

It's going to be one of those games, is it?
Well, fuck you all. You're obviously not all capable of civil and lighthearted gameplay.
Seriously, you all act like mafia nazis. This is a game I play to make friends and have fun.
Does the word "Game" get lost on all of you?

/Replacing out. See me when MD and other dipshit dominating players are gone.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

RDR, you're the VI. Your vote is dumb as shit, and I think that should be pretty fucking obvious.
It is pretty much a policy lynch for mentioning policy lynches.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Motherfuckers who make noise draw scum and dipshits. It isn't their fault they're slipping in their own bullshit.
Stupid players do stupid things, all while calling good players stupid because only stupid logic makes sense to their stupid minds.
Fucking stupid idiots....................................................................












Okay, now let's get back to intelligent scum hunting. Not the retard logic we were just graced with.
NRG is probably scum. Thoughts?

[St Constantine the Hermit]

@RDR- Yes, you'll only solidify his stupidity as being correct. No.one.will.ever.agree.with.rudolfs.logic.
The only reason MD is picking sides is out of some stupid grudge he's carried over from the past.
Chill, and stop whining about it Mathdino. All of you. Hunt scum or piss off. Please. Thanks. Finally.

Scum only fake emotion, which is why neither MD or RDR are scum. Just dipshits voting me equally out of spite.
Oh wait, didn't they just criticize me for that

[St Constantine the Hermit]

What a distraction. That much noise is bound to draw even the most lurky of scum.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

My god, thank you! Now explain why you think the interaction between Mathdino and NRG isn't "town vs town"

[St Constantine the Hermit]

I wasn't insta-lynched because I've played this game long enough to know how to get votes off me.
It was only made easier by how insanely stupid the previous one was.
I don't let a bad case on me go unnoticed, because if it stays there long enough, then people slip into the bullshit.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

3 replacements. Woot. Note that mine is voluntary.

Both Newbie and nrg are voluntary as well.

Maybe my successor will do more justice to the slot than I did.
/Replace out for the last and final time

[St Constantine the Hermit]

For real though, MD and RDR suck hard. Take everything they say with major skepticism.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Hell yeah I'm going to rage quit. People here are insanely dominating.

[St Constantine the Hermit]

Still think NRG's interactions with MD shouldn't be white washed with the replacement.
