BTE: Boon Wars - The Boondom Menace

[RCEnigma]

I remember pod racing for N64 and there was an RTS computer game that I've been looking for since the early 2000s. Can't recall the name but everyone always assume I mean the old republic.

[RCEnigma]

RTS computer game

Empire at War?

Hard pass for me- anything with Mara Jade and EU stuff is just guh

Not empire at war no.

[RCEnigma]

how you doing RCE?

Good, hoping I haven't over gamed myself. Tet told me not to try reading you so hope you rolled town.

[RCEnigma]

I feel pretty bleh with how the first 5 pages have gone. It's all nai star wars appreciation except for Vorkutas vote which I kinda like.


Ps. Galactic battlegrounds was the game.

[RCEnigma]

what do you like about pretending not to have read the op and making a fake push

The fact he didn't justify it the way I believe scum!Vorkuta would.

[RCEnigma]

It’s Star Wars themed game, of course it’s relevant.

I think that’s just flavor. It’s still a booneytoonz mafia game at its core

I picked this game because I wanted a regular mafia game like it was advertised as

We had no idea one would be a multiball game and Ausuka has way better day play. Now I feel bad

Why did you pick this game RCE?

I was fine with either game.

[RCEnigma]

Boon, do votes in animated textcrawl openings count?

Only in a galaxy far far away.

[RCEnigma]

The gimmick posting takes some getting used to but he's grown on me a lot.

[RCEnigma]

1. Empire
1. Hope
1. Return
1. Revenge
1. Rogue
1 1/2. Colognes
1. Solo
1. Boondom
1. Last
1. Awakens

[RCEnigma]

Yep, j don't really have a favorite.

[RCEnigma]

Sounds like a Krazy developed role tbh.

[RCEnigma]

Plot twist: for every list completed he gains a stackable loved modifier/or bulletproof shot.

[RCEnigma]

Xtoxm steal worms dancing gifs. This is IMPORTANT!!

[RCEnigma]

Deb town, haven't seen his scum game tbh so that's tentative.
Zulfy town. Hate on star wars in a star wars themed large, bold, I like it.
Krazy...probably town for offering up Nico since it's a free mislynch down the line.

Xtoxm might be too but it's weird I'm mostly trying to sort him via what's happening in the other game.

VOTE: Joan

Free Krazy.

[RCEnigma]

I was memeing about the bulletproof but hey what do you know.

[RCEnigma]

The first game I played with Nico in it I called her out as scum. She picked up the 1v1 where I implied I was vig and she turned out to be bulletproof.

Well kind of, she was replaced out but still.

[RCEnigma]

RCE speaks of 'free mislynch down the line', and yet my role, as given, prevents that from happening, if I am targeted.

Speaking from the perspective of Krazy!Scum the alternative is that you're being bussed. So what are you even arguing here?

[RCEnigma]

Xtoxm might be too but it's weird I'm mostly trying to sort him via what's happening in the other game.

i think that
1. having the info and
2. sharing it
is at least weak evidence that we drew town in both games
either way, you should just ignore me for a few days and if you're suspicious we can talk about it

I think so too but I can't expand on that game here so not worth going into.

[RCEnigma]

Then why does my role PM say 'friendly neighbour' in it?

Given that Boon is American I guarantee you do not have a role pm that says "friendly neighbo

u

r" and you still haven't explained the exact mechanics of this restriction you're implying you have

This is actually one of the cheekiest reads I've seen in a while.

[RCEnigma]

If you can't day 1 why should we trust that you will day 2 or day 3? What's stopping you from playing the game?

[RCEnigma]

Well yeah, we're only 14 pages in.any content is better than no content.

[RCEnigma]

Nico why did you take the singleball game if you don't do dayplay?

[RCEnigma]

From what I understand Fire locked in for this game but shiro and fire played rock paper scissors for it and they didn't submit the swap.

[RCEnigma]

I don't think it was a game mechanic and doesn't really change anything afaik.

[RCEnigma]

I'm shocked you are taking it at face value from A50.

[RCEnigma]

Bins have you caught up?

[RCEnigma]

I don't think he has scum incentive to claim so.

[RCEnigma]

Calculating....

This actually has me interested.

[RCEnigma]

Krazy, myself, and ofhrz were voting in that order when FN was claimed.

I don't buy it, sorcerers Aboontice just had a scum neighborizer claim FN via their hoods to win. Sorry to poke fresh wounds D:

If give it a night turns into give it one more I wouldn't be surprised. Don't think FA would stick her neck out for Joan with this claim however, partners would like be in the slots soft defending Joan.

[RCEnigma]

I'd uhh, agree.

How scummy she is or isn't is subjective so meh. UNVOTE: I just hate to be the told ya so guy.

[RCEnigma]

Joan claims friendly neighbor that has to be visited. FA claims visitor. Or sleepwalker but...same thing.

[RCEnigma]

Man how are we at 26 pages lol

This. I'll catch up tonight or later in the morning though so maybe it gets better.

[RCEnigma]

RCE what was your last scumgame

Boonin it in the slums where I lurked out day 1 and the whole scumteam got fake guiltied. But tbf I didn't have any fight in me that game.

[RCEnigma]

So not really a readslist but where I'm at with a few slots that stick out. I like Krazy pushing the gamestate, usually +Town when Krazy prioritizes pressure / passivity. Also hasn't had an weird interactions with ofhrz, outside chance it's because they are S/S together but Ofhrz would probably be more enthusiastic in the main thread if that were the case. That might not be the right word though. Plus I liked the push on Joan, I don't feel it was hot air and Joan responded poorly to the push.

FA claiming to protect doesn't seem like S/S so is probably town regardless of Joan's alignment. Bins' Lamist interjections after the wagon lost steam and then pushing Krazy off of it is the scummiest thing I've seen this game.

Vork's early vote on Xtoxm was pretty townie. Xtoxm trying to put it down as Vorkuta just not paying attention to the OP doesn't sit well. Scum would be more aware just by proxy of having more eyes. But the vote was on him so I get the bias. Plus outing the fire and ice info is town motivated. SS' crossthread read can probably be applied to Xtoxm's partner but not necessarily Xtoxm if that makes sense. If not I'll break it down more at some point.

Ehh the rest are null or Fringe reads. I had Zulfy slight town for something early but on reread I couldn't figure out what it was. Now he's gotta earn it.

[RCEnigma]

Are we massclaiming today?

[RCEnigma]

Luv has openly admitted to not liking town. I think thats an insurance read for the sister game.

[RCEnigma]

I'll sheep Krazys ofhrz read. It's not as awkward as musicals.

VOTE: Titus

[RCEnigma]

You feel different this game RCE

I'm a different man, Nick. I've seen things.

[RCEnigma]

Wow, ok. I totally meant Jazz.

[RCEnigma]

I feel Krazy is bleeding town regardless of read accuracy. Titus voting there for reactions is weak posturing imo.

[RCEnigma]

oh, right

do you think you're playing differently this game?

From Jazz or in general?

[RCEnigma]

Actually, doesn't really matter. Yes.

Sweet sweet page top.

[RCEnigma]

RCE what was your last scumgame

Boonin it in the slums where I lurked out day 1 and the whole scumteam got fake guiltied. But tbf I didn't have any fight in me that game.

[RCEnigma]

If it helps your read any, I recently got a compliment from Shoshin about my town game that I took as criticism. Since it's bad news for my scum game. I'd consider this a transitional period.

[RCEnigma]

More so that I read very transparently. I was aware of it before I just roll scum so rarely I hadn't put any effort into evening the two out until Shoshin brought it up.

[RCEnigma]

"If ya ain't first, yer last Ricky" - Anakin probably.

[RCEnigma]

RCE is probtown? not as blindingly town as he usually is but I'm probably not going there today

As much as I don't care for his thoughts on me or Krazy, I agree. I don't think RCE could recognize posturing if it bit him on the ass. But wrong doesn't mean scum and he's not the first person to mistake Tired!Titus for Scum!Titus.

Hmm, FL does this same thing as scum. So it's not unreasonable to think that posting a vote on Krazy early isn't an intentional ploy. Because look, scum wouldn't target a stronger player blatantly, I could mislynch all these other people way easier.

Compared to the reasoning for the other votes on them. Bins is defending a bad claim with a bad claim so kind of checks out. I.... Don't really know who the other vote is. If it isn't rvs that can be possible scum too.

[RCEnigma]

Oh, Chara but they retracted the read not the vote hmm.

[RCEnigma]

Hi Chara! I don't scumread you yet. This is new territory for me.

[RCEnigma]

I don't dislike it. But I prefer town.

We decided after trying to guess where Nero was going.

[RCEnigma]

After, we were one of the last confirms.

[RCEnigma]

Dead game lul.

Krazy you mind talking me through some reads? Where are you at now? Since your readslist from earlier had Zulfy pretty high up but that's where your vote is currently. How do you feel about Chara if you take Joan out of the equation?

[RCEnigma]

Stole my hot take.

[RCEnigma]

.....
Chinese Fire Drill = random "hey let's completely go crazy and wagon this unrelated person"

And yes- there's always a universal consensus as to how townie I am, as no one else has spoken up

I like seeing Vork grow confident in his play. It's heart warming even.

[RCEnigma]

I haven't played with Zulfy. Is indifference Alignment indicative in their case?

[RCEnigma]

We aren't close to deadline or anything but it's the only semi serious wagon so far. No defense from Zulfy, no defense from anyone else, no attempt to start any kind of counterwagon.

[RCEnigma]

The Zulfy wagon is a beetlejuice wagon ffs and look how that turned out

What do you mean? I'm wagoning him because he's not doing anything, not really because he beetlejuiced.

This applies to a sizable portion of the playerlist so it's kind of a crapshoot.

[RCEnigma]

True, it's rng at best. That's assuming any given team had the option to choose a single scum player. I wouldn't be surprised if a team got stuck with multiple scum roles.

[RCEnigma]

Still here.

Can the people not voting please vote

VOTE: Zulfy motivation.

[RCEnigma]

It would be pretty pointless with half the playerlist not playing.

[RCEnigma]

Most of my townreads are not voting ;-;

Joan FA Chara?

[RCEnigma]

Well that was quick.
