Mini Normal 1711: Flavor not required. D2 deadline: 9/29/15

[RadiantCowbells]

oh, you're the new scorpius. OK.

hi

[RadiantCowbells]

Your slot claimed unspecifically a PR of some sort. You need to claim it outright.

[Ranmaru]

Aj replaced Scorp. Welcome.

[Aj The Epic]

So I'm really fucked...

This slot is a town mail man. Scorp used it on Catboi. Whelp.

[RadiantCowbells]

the fuck is a town mail man.

[Aj The Epic]

You send messages to people. Messages, not packages.

It's like the inferior version of town UPS man.

[LexTrew]

I though he was like a cop or something

[RadiantCowbells]

ok quick drawing board session

[Psyche]

Time to play my cards.

[Shinobi]

That role actually sounds super fun.
Huh.

[Vedith]

If AJ was scum he would have gone along with the cop role, right?

[Aj The Epic]

That or Doctor, probably. I haven't read the thread outside of looking at my predecessor's Iso. The slot's basically at your guy's mercy anyways, so I'd probably try to draw out a counter claim for buddies to pick off.

[Vedith]

So does this mean that RC isn't cleared?

[Aj The Epic]

Well it should be noted that mailman is used in any alignment. It's kinda a weak version of a town messenger where the player A has the mod tell another player B that A is town.

I mean, I can prove the role. It just doesn't indicate anything about my alignment.

[Vedith]

Yeah but if you were mailman scum then why wouldn't you say Cop or Doc or what not? There was no pressure in thinking that you were lying.

[Shinobi]

Lex why exactly are you voting Psyche?

[LexTrew]

PoE, yo.

Its either him or KTK, and I feel better voting for him.

[RadiantCowbells]

Alright, so I've come to the point where I'm willing to grant Scorpious conftown status if the role claim is true.

I do not believe a scum roleblocker is within the realm of possibility at this time.

Our play tonight will be to have Aj the Epic target one of the 2 remaining nonconfirmeds with the message "Annie."

If Aj is lying, then his only will to cover himself will be to kill a nonconfirmed which will reduce the pool of nonconfirmeds by 1, giving us 3/2 conf/nonconf and autowin once we realize he has to be scum.

If Aj is telling the truth, scum will either have to kill his target, reducing the pool of nonconfirmeds by 1 and giving us 3/2 conf/nonconf or let it live allowing us to confirm Aj, probably combined with a kill on a confirmed leaving us with 3/2 conf/nonconf.

Either way, if town is willing to take me as confirmed we autowin.

Even if I end up getting lynched, we still get a few shots at lynching the scum.

My lynch priority is Psyche > Lextrew > KTK.

[Fink]

What time is the deadline exactly? And could we get a votecount please?

Okay guys, so I'm sorry I probably shouldn't have replaced into this game at the moment I did with the deadline so close, the weekend ended up being crazy busy and I got no mafia reading done. I do actually have time for two games in general, just the catching up in a hurry on a busy weekend not so much. Today was all the stuff I should have done this weekend but also didn't get to.

Anyway, tomorrow (a.k.a. later today really) I have a ton of time, and I THINK the deadline is 11:59 PM EST. Which is fine.

I haven't done this game justice, but I'm not a chronic lurker, I just got super busy right after I replaced in. Hate to do this crap, but that's the deal. Actual content tomorrow afternoon, when I have all the time I need.

[Psyche]

vote Lextrew

I happen know that I'm not scum so.

[Shinobi]

Three of the players in that vc have been replaced.

[Aj The Epic]

I just finished reading the entire game...

I didn't expect that the jean lynch basically came down to policy.

KtK's slot is probably scum
The only thing that makes me believe the mason claim isn't scum (because I was scum reading Psyche's slot early) is the "Why aren't you obtowning for me" comment by Spiffeh.

Tomorrow, Fink needs to be pressed hard. Kyub's style is generally the kind of walling game theory/mafia theory type, but I've seen him at least try harder to make good reads in other games.

How do you expect us to progress the game? If you have a problem with how others are doing it by all means think of something better. Don't try to stifle discussion this early on no matter how baseless it is.

I said that because I didn't want anyone getting tunnel vision early on. I don't really have a problem with how anyone's playing; I just wanted to lend some perspective in order to avoid problems that could plague us later on.

As for my suspicion of Catboi, I don't really have any clue as to whether or not he's scum, but they way he kept poking Shinobi even though he just seemed a bit confused struck me as odd. The jumping onto Catboi for his absence was a shot in the dark just to see what would happen. I really wouldn't take anything I say right now seriously, though I'm now in the odd position of being slightly suspicious of him but not being able to press further without adding plausibility to your hypothesis of me. Can I defend my new observation and let you point out any flaws in it without looking more suspicious in your eyes?

Second paragraph is all over the place. From the waffling on what he thinks to, more importantly, basically asking for a free pass on that. "I really wouldn't take anything I say right now seriously..." is him asking for forgiveness for a mistake in my mind. I know him to at least try and take some independent positions but he's simply asking to try and conform here with someone else guiding him.

[Vedith]

Either way, if town is willing to take me as confirmed we autowin.

I'm not arguing here that you are or are not to be seen as confirmed town, but what is the reason exactly?
