Open 630 (Pick Your Power X/Y): Rap Battle Mafia (GAME END)

[Errantparabola]

Votecount 1.9

This Votecount is dedicated to Maxous, who asked
For my aid- and I am perfectly willing to give the forecast:
The temperature on Aneninen's wagon is heatin' up;
But cold fronts on Aristodesis are speedin' up,
And a quick reminder to bring your jackets on your dates
To die of a cold it only takes a Celsius of 8.

Aneninen (4):

Aristodesis, Persivul, kirroha, KainTepes

beeboy (3):

Ranger, Maxous, Red Magic

Aristodesis (2):

pisskop, beeboy

Maxous (2):

G[o]dz, Aneninen

kirroha (1):

Firebringer

pisskop (1):

lilith2013

Not Voting (1):

KuroiXHF

With 14 alive, it requires 8 degrees Celsius to lynch.

Prodding Firebringer and KuroiXHF.

(okay, more precisely: rap-looking texts)

And one more thing, please don't put down your rappin,
Your rhymes are as fly as those wings you've been flappin!

[Firebringer]

I thought this game was in night phase for some reason.
I think Kirroha or possibly Aristodesis should be lynched.

[pisskop]

Vote with us

[Firebringer]

But your not my mason buddy.

[pisskop]

I know. I didnt opt for the mason category. Too passive for my tastes

[Firebringer]

VOTE: Aristodesis

[KuroiXHF]

I just got a prod. I forgot to say I was out Saturday and Sunday
So I'll be back tomorrow with raps a little less mundane.
I'll scum hunt, and find scum. Then take them to the alley.
Then we'll go Compton on then, like the streets we have in Cali.

[beeboy]

This counter wagon is scum driven -1

[Firebringer]

This counter wagon is scum driven -1

You calling me scum?

[Aristodesis]

oh god what did I write yesterday ;-; uh, sorry about the ocean of AtE.

You tried it, that's fair, but you're still not there,
Empty hole of a hare, I can see that when I stare.
Lilith, that's okay, Rangy, Kirrhy what yer guts say,
But the reads on the others, well, questions are to stay.
As for Persy, that's plain: you really need to explain
Your Maxy-points are weak, just a candle in the rain
Why 461 from Kuroi's more town
Do you think all the others are just fluff below the sun?
So, Kain: miswritten, I might believe the rhythm,
But the last one's still looks never town-driven.
I could be way under-classed, but TWELVE days have passed
And you don't have a single scum read expressed?!
Your vote's ridiculous, is it simply OMGUS,
Come ooon, you're not that bad, you would be more ambitio-us
As town, but hun – if you were that one.
You don't hunt the Mafia so I think you are scum.

Quote striping is too painful so

> As for Persy, that's plain: you really need to explain
Derailing wagons on first picks is at least superficially town-motivated

> Why 461 from Kuroi's more town
It's what pinged town for me.

> And you don't have a single scum read expressed?!
Consider everyone I'm not townreading a scumread if it makes you feel better.

> Your vote's ridiculous, is it simply OMGUS
Well yeah but no.

> Come ooon, you're not that bad
Normally no but in this game apparently

uhhh yes it is?

in some contexts perhaps but this is not one of those

Aristodesis, where is your other head?
Why are they not posting in your stead?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

And I can't figure out from what you just wrote,
How you ended up with that Aneniennen vote.

The way in which they're (generic pronoun sorry) questioning my reads is scum-shade-y.

[Ranger]

Sorry for the delay.
I lost power. Back now, gimme a bit to read.

[Ranger]

Can you express some more about that?

It felt like an act because nothing came of it: the interaction was words, with nothing tangible on either side. Maxous pressed beeboy, initiating their conversation. Then, he backed off, ending their conversation...with literally nothing having changed in their reads, at all. So, the entire thing was just half a page of fluff, meant to look good without doing anything.

[Ranger]

but for someone making a song and dance of how much you hard, hard scum-read GR, you jumped up off the slot pretty easily.

There's no tangible way to explain this. It's who I am. I have a read. I pursue that read. I put words in that read and continue pressing that read. But sometimes, I get stuck in the awkward position where I'm forced to admit I was probably wrong on that read. This is one of those times. 819 continues the strong posting from Godz I saw before. 823 also displays insight into Firebringer I was also having (but not stating), while also voicing basically what I had in mind about Maxous better than I did.

So anyway, Ranger, I did some reading,
But there's bigger fish to fry, others who need to die,
So I'd really like if we could see eye to eye.
What about beeboy looks like scum to you?
His posts aren't great, but I see nothing askew.
With your town read on Persi, can you give me a run through?
Because I think all of his posts reek of dog poo.

I'm townreading Persivul for the same reason you're townreading beeboy: past experience with him. I

could

be wrong, yes, but I'm still pretty sure this is Persivul's town game.

For beeboy, that one's a bit harder to explain. I just don't feel his posts are genuine, and his stances have mostly been bad.
You're right, that's not the best of cases. He's not the person I'd prefer to be voting. (That'd be Maxous.) But if push comes to shove, he's still got one of the highest chances of any player to flip scum as far as I can tell, higher than almost anyone else.

[Ranger]

839 is my thoughts as well.

VOTE: Maxous.
I see some support there.

[Ranger]

Godz's thoughts are similar in nature, albeit differing in names, to mine as well:

And don't treat my dismissal of the Ari wagon as a spurn,
I think how little they've contributed is cause for concern.
But whether they're scum isn't so easy to discern,
And I think a Maxous lynch yields greater return.
If it's between beeboy and Ari, I'd vote Ari first.
Of the two, I think they looks worse.
But I really do think Max and Pers are scum,
And if they make it to endgame I will feel rather glum.

Aristodesis is a weaker townread of mine, with the townread increasingly weak with time.
That being said, I'd prefer not to lynch them. Given the choice between {beeboy, Aristodesis}, beeboy's my choice in a landslide.
While I also think Persivul is town, Maxous is my top choice.

[Ranger]

Red Magic (pieguyn + borkjerfkin) - meeeeeeh, they haven't done much they wouldn't fake, neither head has been as incisive as I know they can be. pieguyn doesn't get brownie points for defending me :S

This is the closest thing to an original read Maxous has. All the others are ridiculously safe, easy stances to take. The second-closest is the Ranger read, but I've already discussed that.

[Ranger]

This is going to become one of those games where we all die so I will probably need to compromise so I might as well do it now. Intent to hammer.

This post is absolutely terrible, by the way.

[pisskop]

^^ this player looks worse and worse as the day goes on, but I still think it has some townieness to it

[Ranger]

863 is ridiculously genuine.
The slot may not have done much scumhunting, but is very much still town.

[KuroiXHF]

Ranger's recent posts makes him look good.
But I don't agree with Maxous' lynch. Ranger, I don't think you should.
Want to know why? Look at my 461
Let's lynch someone else because Maxous should not be done.

...On a second glance, we have two bandwagons formed.
I'm not the biggest fans of either, but I doubt you all would be reformed.
I think Lilith should be the one lynched, but if we're going for a decoy
then I'm going to reluctantly shrug and VOTE: Beeboy

[Ranger]

Want to know why? Look at my 461

Your stated reason for townreading Maxous was 173, which

was the worst post Maxous has made the entire game

, containing the

highly

-opportunistic vote on lilith which was incredibly pro-scum and had absolutely terrible reasoning attached.

[KuroiXHF]

You understand that a bad post doesn't mean he's scum, right?
I got a townie vibe, straight from inside, and I'm willing to fight.
The thing that's killing me is that Beeboy is always scummy, for sure.
But I can't let him WIFOM me every game. I'll take him down like Tupac Shakur.
