Mini Normal 2256

[Laplacian]

Hm...I thought we would have 14 days deadlines while signing up, only having 7 days is a bit troublesome...to me the wagons are always gonna feel rushed at this rate

so, since it's also a normal setup, I thought maybe we could add some extra spice and kill two rabbits with one stone or something if enough people show interest

I was thinking of a fun mini-game we could play, something like...a

gambling "system"

?

The general idea would be that the people willing to join this "gambling club" would each receive 2 "voting chips", which they could bet

for

or

against

certain

wagon

flipping scum.

There's quite a bit of additional rules and restrictions to ensure it doesn't disturb the game too much later on or isn't very exploitable, but basically if you won the bet, and there was someone betting against you, you take the "voting chips" the loser gambled with. You can't take "voting chips" from

multiple

people in a single bet as well. You always take the "voting chips" of the highest or earliest bidder. (although I could make some changes to this rule if people requested although the "mini-game" would get more complex).

If you've "voting chips" from someone in a given day, you can spend one of them a day to force that person to vote together with you. If the person refuses to comply with this rule, everyone inside the "gambling club" would vote that given person.

However, all those rules would be

"disabled"

in MyLo or LyLo (is there any other way to say this without it being weird?). Since we don't know how many scum there is to calculate when MyLo or LyLo will be with certainty, we will default it to 3-man scum team until proven otherwise.

um, excuse me, as a wholesome and innocent townie I find anyone wanting to fill our charming town with sinful gambling to be highly suspect
VOTE: Shirou

VOTE: laplacian
that avatar...

Why yes, it is an avatar worthy of voting for in the "best avatar awards", thank you for noticing.

[Laplacian]

The whole gambling thing seems like something scum would probably hesitate to engage in, I also don't actively dislike much of what I see of the more active talkers here.

Of the less active posters, this here feels most like instant noodles for a good town post, so I go with this:

VOTE: Laplacian

14 is scumposting.

Confirmed, Masons with Kitty & Cakey.

VOTE: House

We have a 3 person mason team claimed who've all confirmed each other and you're voting one of them? Unless you're suspecting they're a scumteam gambiting hard, this is a really weird vote.
VOTE: Zookeeper

[Laplacian]

Ah. Yep, didn't even think to read there
UNVOTE:

[Laplacian]

We've got gambling and perfidious fake masons; what madness has overcome this town!?

[Laplacian]

Status:

It's beautiful

[Laplacian]

I like this Andante wagon. Giving off weird vibes and I usually see giving up + heavy appeals to emotion like this as more scummy behavior.
VOTE: Andante

[Laplacian]

Listen if i was good at counting i would be like an accountant or something

No one is good at counting. Numbers greater than 3 are too big.

[Laplacian]

As a proud member of the Andante wagon I'd like to be the first to say: lol get rekt scum

[Laplacian]

laplacian's early day comment strikes as a odd to me too

Agreed, btw.

Interestingly, they haven't posted since I claimed a guilty.

Well, yeah, I was waiting for you to do your dramatic revelation so I could show back up and go "NANI!?"

[Laplacian]

Now that's done...



Firebringer

Incidentally, NANI!?

I don't think House would offer up a trade as scum, so i'll vote fire first, then get house if fire flips town
VOTE: Firebringer

[Laplacian]

No, because I'm town, so if you said I was guilty I'd gladly flip to take you down too. Assuming there's not a framer style role and we're not all getting played

[Laplacian]

Ah, cool. Second game for me on this site, so I'm not 100% on all the meta and common roles yet. Kinda funky that we can have roles like night 1 informed odd night ninja gunsmith but not framer

[Laplacian]

I do enjoy a good bus; they're a lot more efficient than cars.

[Laplacian]

House

:
Even if you want to policy(?) yeet him eventually he is actively playing and creating more AI content for himself and other players. That's seems like just a bad idea. I also think he's much more likely to be town than scum here. I mean, imagine he's scum. Any PR investigate him and it's just immediately gg for scum.

Wwe probably should policy lim house at some point, but it's really low priority. Like, day 4 or 5 when we have no better leads kind of vote.

[Laplacian]

I don't think NorwEE is scum, just salty. If they're scum then arguing with House that hard is basically a gamethrow. I think they see a strat they don't like work and are annoyed by it. Gypyx has a little of the same vibes after House's 635.

[Laplacian]

Reading some isos, VOTE: Noctyrnia tops my list. I'm also down to hop on a Cakez wagon.

[Laplacian]

how dare you assume we're not in 4:9

4:9? psh, how optimistic to discount the possibility of a 5:8

[Laplacian]

I'm juggling. What should I know?

Keep the balls moving in the air, a steady rhythm will help

[Laplacian]

yeah, dumb jokes are about as useful as i'm'a be today. still voting noct

[Laplacian]

Looker/flippynips vote looks more and more reasonable to me. Looker replaced in and has said basically nothing, flippy said nothing, and flippy replacing out after 2 scum down could easily be last scum saying "well, I can't win this" and quitting. I'd still like to hear from Looker and feel a little bad voting as soon as they came in, but I think it's a pretty safe vote.

Also, the most damning evidence: they ignored my juggling joke

VOTE: Looker
I believe that's E-1

[Laplacian]

Zookeeper, I have a theory about you.

If my theory is right, I'm going to be happy. If it's wrong, I'm going to be sad.

My theory is that you were recently in considerable debt, but now you're even steven.

Yes. I know this theory is out of left field. I am an odd fellow. Never claimed to be normal.

Is this a breadcrumb I'm missing? There's like 3 or 4 different pairs of opposites in here

[Laplacian]

God damn it did I miss another inside joke

[Laplacian]

the post was weird enough that I feLt It Got a coMment. especiAlly since it's house and By now he's sAid Like 2 or 3 cLaimS so far. plus i find it interesting to always look for secret breadcrumb messages within posts.

[Laplacian]

ffff I capitalized my first "I". years of proper grammar coming back to ruin stupid joke #2138

[Laplacian]

Zookeeper, you want to think I'm scum go for it. But I've been both scum lims so far, newbie posts or not. If you really think I bussed 2 people the first two days, I must be the world's ballsiest scum

[Laplacian]

That specific logic does not hold well when you are speaking about new players.

I mean, I like to think as scum I'd be smart enough to not instagib the guy accusing me

[Laplacian]

I also don't like Noct's Eeyoresque giving up, but I like this page with Cakez & House even less

[Laplacian]

At this point I think we all need to claim. House because idfk what's up with their slot, and Noct and Blake called for the mass claim and then didn't. Just VT here.

[Laplacian]

Wait, we got this. Cakez, claim scum, then House will cc and we lim him for admitting scum. ggez

[Laplacian]

Despite being a brick wall filled with memes and counterclaims, I still think House is more trustworthy than Cakez.

[Laplacian]

And not just because I like a good wall-o-memes

[Laplacian]

VOTE: Blake

[Laplacian]

gg I guess, and thanks House for the chaos.
