Scummies Invitational 2012 (Game Over)

[Lady Lambdadelta]

I claimed on Day 1, Tierce. I claimed Gunsmith on Day 1.

There's such a 0% chance I'm a doctor, lol.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

Plus, Oversoul should have a vigshot tonight for Matias?

You're killing me here, LLD.


Did Reck claim Tracker in the party? I seem to recall one of you saying so.

No. Reck explicitly claimed VT to all of us. He said at the beginning of the game he had the choice to either take an ability for himself (so one of the roles in the game would be taken from someone else at random and given to him) or be VT. He TOLD us he chose VT because of his party putting a target on him.

But uh, clearly not. -shrug-

[Lady Lambdadelta]

And don't look at me like that Tierce. I'm exploring all options. If you wanted to just lynch Matias today, we could have 4 votes on him like THAT and be DONE with it,.

You know he's scum, I know he's scum, we all know he's scum.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

I'm a tracker now?

cool.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

I hate all of you.

I try my best.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

Benmage, talk to me.

If Tierce is scum, and obviously Matias is too.

Who is the third scum?

[Lady Lambdadelta]

... I got caught up in looking at immigration law.

What the fuck just happened here?

[Lady Lambdadelta]

I'm happy you think Tierce is town now.

I'm less thrilled at how willing you were to vote her in LYLO.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

I'm less talking about your vote and more how non-genuine it felt. Like, I've played with you before, and I just... I don't know it gave me the willies.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

Or is it a madness, Benmage. We'll never know.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

Or is it a madness, Benmage. We'll never know.

Anyways bro, don't second guess yourself.

You, me OS, Tierce...

You were right.... It must be Matias, singer, bulb.

How cray cray.

I'm always right Benmage. Except when I'm not.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

I think you know what time it is.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

Benmage, would you lynch Bulb over Matias today?

[Lady Lambdadelta]

Bulb, you don't have CES's doc?

CES had a 1-shot ability, which he used. Since it's already used up, I don't inherit it. Hence why I'm convinced there's a scum doc.

Did he just claim scum?

[Lady Lambdadelta]

Fuck this. He literally just said he didn't inherit the doctor he told us he would. I'm not leaving this game in the hands of Oversoul.

Vote: Bulb

[Lady Lambdadelta]

We had 2 goons, a gunsmith, a backup investigator and a roleblocker.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

If it's any consolation, Ben, we thought this game was town sided.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

depends if Oversoul is a 1 shot vig like we think he is.

I think it's a little town sided, but balanced.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

with an SK and a vig?

And we had to lynch 6 townies and the SK to win?

[Lady Lambdadelta]

Because the SK was unkillable?

[Lady Lambdadelta]

What have you kept doing the past few days?

OS, tell me the final scum team.

Honestly could be anyone

Last night's kill choice was weird which is why I am going for more oddball choices.
Reck's delayed death means scum in the party.

LLD/Singer, CES, Matias

Oh, look at that.

I am going to indulge myself in a simple crass moment: fuck off, doubters.

Only Matias played well and even then it was obvious once you thought about it. So much to say, more to certain people, but I'll make it short.

I hated this game. The player list was mostly toxic (myself included), the balance weird as fuck, the accountability horrible. I am glad this is my last game on this site. I do not see this site developing well as a community in the future if this game and this player list is a barometer. I don't see myself as a member of this community anymore. Too many unwilling personalities set in their ways, refusing to change. I guess I am the same way but I'm removing myself from it completely. Hopefully for the better. I really hope people critically analyze their actions and the results of these actions.

To the people who didn't make it unpleasant, I wish you the best.

I could respond in a lot of ways that would reflect poorly on me.

So I'll just say not to let the door hit you too hard on your way out.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

Well, if you're going to come and tell me I played a bad game, then I'd rather that door stay closed on you, but do as you like.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

Zoraster, when you end this game, can you post the dead thread ASAP?

[Lady Lambdadelta]

you can't smash people when you're dead, Reckoner.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

Yeah except I realized about around Day 4 that you had to be a 1 shot vig.

So I wasn't scared of you because your contribution to the town was Nill, and you weren't gonna shoot me.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

... does your brain not work?

How about this statistic for you? In 7 game days, according to votes recorded in vote counts, I received a total of 1 vote against this game.

It was from BBMolla on Day 1.

Clearly I was never in a position to get lynched.

In addition, yes I burned some of my town cred in later days to get lynches I wanted. There's nothing wrong with that considering that none of you could lynch me for it!

[Lady Lambdadelta]

\o/

Among the other reasons we killed you, was so I could stop having interactions with you LOL. I don't think me pointing out your post and being uncertain about it was a BAD play, but it wasn't good when looked at over the course of a few days.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

Also, while gloating is beneath me, I'm feeling challenged by Oversoul, SO HERE WE GO.

Zdenek wagon Day 2 was started by me, and then I hopped off it when Fate gave me an out. I managed to push the wagon through even while not being on it for a while!
Fate lynch day 3 wasn't going to happen in that order. Reck wanted to do it the other way, but the legit concern that Fate could take a swing at me (since I could gunsmith him for a guilty) was enough for me to put some force into the lynch. Reck let me have it. In addition, this was a Most Enjoyable lynch, making it that much harder.
Hito lynch was a product of apathy and pushed through greatly in part by me (with special guest appearance from Bulbazak).
DeasVail lynch was started by me and also EXPEDITED by me. Day 6 was short and didn't allow for a lot of second thought.
Bulbazak lynch was baited by me basically conning Benmage into the 3 person quickhammer because I knew I could. Doesn't matter if he thought the game was over or not, I still coordinated a 3 person quickhammer only in a quicktopic.

This is all in addition to keeping people alive who wouldn't lynch me, and killing them when they turned sour.
---------------------------------------------------------------------

All this being said, that's enough ego stroking for one day. My team did a fantastic job, especially after we lost Kanye night 1. SD did a great job sacrificing himself for the Fate lynch (which would likely have happened Day 4 regardless of me expediting it on Day 3). Matias was townread by SO many people up until PoE did him in. Singer held her own under the radar the entire game and was largely unquestioned for it.

It was a concerted team effort that created an 875 post quicktopic scum QT. I'm proud of my team.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

lol

[Lady Lambdadelta]

If you read BBMolla's role PM when he died night 1, you would have KNOWN Gunsmiths could hit you.

Which means you got no excuse, son.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

I feel no remorse, for I was given the dreaded Bodysnatcher role in Zoraster's Strategy Mafia. You wanna talk about unwinnable roles? LOL

[Lady Lambdadelta]

fate had a very challenging game to play, certainly. I don't think it was "balanced" in the sense that SK had a 33% chance of winning. More like I think he had a chance proportional to his factions presence in the game (i.e. around 5%)

The bodysnatcher role was indeed harder, but it was, forgive me, a pretty cool role.

never said I didn't enjoy it, just saying it was impossible.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

Yes, Tierce. Usually when I say "just my .02", I am, in fact, speaking for

myself

. I just think if SK is going to be announced as a faction in the game, we should know whether or not they're being forced to kill. It has the potential for way too much misinformation to enter the game if everyone is expecting SK kills and they're not happening.

In any case, this game was pretty awful and exactly proves my theory that if you just take a bunch of "good" players a throw them together in a game, it's a catastrophe. There are too many strong personalities in one place and not enough "mediocre" or "bad" players to fill those much needed gaps in the playerlist. The scum team played as well as they needed here and pulled off a pretty convincing win, there's no doubt... but looking back at all of the lynches I was here for (Johhog, Zdenek/GNR, Fate, SD, Feirei) I don't think I would've done anything different. Every last one of them played in a way that dug their own grave and they deserved lynches. The funny thing is... had we left Fate-SK alive, I'm pretty confident this would've been a town victory, because I'm almost positive Fate would've offed LLD & singer.

Right, and do you remember when SD was the planned lynch over Fate, and everyone was going that way, and I said 1 line and flipped the script?\

I knew Fate would shoot me in the face eventually, probably even that night. We got him lynched first for exactly that reason.

[Lady Lambdadelta]

So what you're telling me is that you're allowed to slag my play and be a sore loser (like you always are), but I'm not allowed to be proud of my accomplishments in the face of people telling me otherwise?

Why are you still here again, Mr. I'm not a part of this community?
