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

[evilpacman18]

Not really feeling UT trying to start up a town block (jokingly or not) and also going for tman2nd, obvious mislynch bait and Marquis is disturbingly happy to follow. I'm already not reading them as scum together though. demanding answers over and over again is town.

uh Deathnote's entrance is pretty bad, he just calls some null posts weird and then votes based on that (the qualifier, "or am I just being trolled" would be more town if it didn't come AFTER a vote. a vote is a decision, one that town shouldn't make if they're unsure on how to understand something) but when Marquis attacks that logic sarcastically, he doesn't do anything about it.

Elyse, GC, Zekrom all seem town based on their early legit votes.
Gooner is kinda preachy, not really a good thing, especially since his vote on GC (who I'm biased for because I liked that intro post I guess) is basically a misunderstanding of why zekrom was being voted. He fails to follow his own advice on clear, reasoned reads and votes.

Marquis is definitely town, sorry about that initial misread. mollie's not scum also, dunno if I've discussed this in the above. Elyse vs. mollie is town/town, pretty easy to see just based on the responsiveness to each other in the little back-and-forths.
fwiw, I think Former always makes too many "content coming" posts and such. he's weirdly belligerent about it here though, that's new.

Evilpacman, that's really cool that your location is my hometown, awesome! Are you an APU or Citrus student, by the way?

I go to APU!

btw the video in 300 is frikkin hilarious

Sorry, I had a really busy week that's finally over. I just read up, I need to go back again for details I'm definitely leaning towards Deathnote, Gooner, zekrom scum. Possibly UT though I don't see him buddying Deathnote and/or zekrom.

About zekrom, tman, pisskop, and RC, we have (or had, tman and pisskop are doing better now) four people acting like noobs and being essentially unreadable, earlier in the game I would've pegged pisskop for scum ahead of zekrom. Not really anymore though, barring a convincing full-claim after that ridiculous softclaim (that I'm inclined not to believe just based on "at least one night").

Have to look at Elyse again but I was reading her as town I think.

[evilpacman18]

oh wait I didn't even finish that thought in the middle paragraph. Basically I was gonna say it's some fake scum shit that zekrom is the only one drawing votes when the four of those were sucking it up real hard, but idk anymore since he's probably actually scum.

[evilpacman18]

psst epm I'm voting DN right now and was voting zekrom before I wasn't buddying them. did you even read the game?

Sorry I must have spaced out, I meant I didn't see you being scum with them because of your pushing both of them.
And about Gooner, I think GC saw some stuff about UT's early game in that post that I agreed with, so I liked it even though it was succinct.

[evilpacman18]

Welp that's a scum claim/confirmation of UT town

vote: Zekrom

[evilpacman18]

Prod dodge for now, be back in a couple hours to post.

unvote

[evilpacman18]

Jesus. Remind me never to play two games again. Catching up.

read the last 10 pages. sthar caught my attention.

I don't like sthar. He posted a read list "in the interest of transparency" meaning he's more concerned with peoples' perceptions of him than posting reads because they convict him into lynching/defending certain people, etc.
Also he's got like a third of the playerlist chalked up to VI (including myself, which I can't remember playing with him but whatever) which normally indicates a town read (it is a VILLAGE idiot, after all), but in the case of someone like fish, who he says he doesn't really believe the claim, meaning he's reading him as scum, it's either a mislabeled null-read or intentional dissonance. Either way, his dismissal of so many players as VI is some indication that, again, he's more interested in looking actively engaged than being so. zekrom's 959 is more typically dull posting from him but I think he accidentally tripped over the discovery that sthar doesn't actually have much at all and for a full playerlist reads post, it leaves me at least still quite unsure of what sthar thinks.

Oh well in 987 sthar specifically says "VI is not a read"
well
1. yes it is (it is a VILLAGE idiot, after all)
2. so you completely avoided posting reads in your read list

it's interesting who fell for those posts and started town reading you when they're both terrible too. Maybe some scumbuddies in there, who knows

I'm going to sleep, it's 4:30AM but I had a few other people I was gonna look into. Needa figure out UT, not reading Deathnote as scum so much anymore and zekrom will sort itself out so my UT read isn't as bound to association tells, have to re-evaluate. Don't like Gooner. or pisskop a little

Lots of townreads too:
Marquis, mollie, elyse, nikanor, ythan, RC, Yates, Fish, GC, PV...

good night

[evilpacman18]

vote: sthar

vig: pisskop

[evilpacman18]

Well this has sorted itself out nicely, like I figured. I'll be voting zekrom whenever people are ready.
It's kind of hard to figure out alignments when people are just voting confirmed scum.
Actually yeah that makes me kind of want to end today, idk what talking can be done now that can't be done more effectively once we have lynched scum and a night kill or two.
I wouldn't think for a second that there's two one shot vigs

vote: zekrom

[evilpacman18]

unvote

I hope nobody still thinks Marquis is scum

[evilpacman18]

oh we're back in action. Nikanor I'm still looking forward to your case on me.

vote: pisskop

[evilpacman18]

This is like the time I was town and you tried to have me lynched for using the word "appeal" and then I was right and won the game.

[evilpacman18]

You're voting me based on one post?

[evilpacman18]

meh I'm not feeling the Nikanor wagon, I don't think he was trying to misrep me really. Serra I could go for a little more although I still like my vote on pisskop, who has kind of breezed through the game with people generally ignoring him, even though other newish or comparatively uninteresting players in this game have been subjected to scrutiny.

[evilpacman18]

Got the prof. I'll be in tomorrow for sure, it's spring break so I think I have time for this now

[evilpacman18]

I have asked the mod to replace out.
