Micro 920 - Less Pressure [Game Over!]

[Egix96]

Oof, sorry for not being here yesterday
Catching up

[Egix96]

I'm lolhammering if anyone hits L-1.

Bold strategy, Cotton.

[Egix96]

I'm an expert at getting out of a D1 lynch, I suggest putting your effort somewhere else.

Heh
That's only because you were a PR that one time
Hardly makes you an expert I would say

[Egix96]

I'll let the IC's fight among themselves

This one less... but I’m not even sure why it pinged me

Possibly because coming right after an unvote, joking in a way that would intensify the fight feels a bit forced.

It's the unvote itself that bugs me.
Feels like dsj was overly concerned about looking bad if the wagon on you got too big or something

VOTE: dsjstr

[Egix96]

Egix, what would you think if I said I would actually lolhammer you if you hit L-1?

Why would you want to do that anyway?

[Egix96]

Can you say sth more about dsjstr’s town/scum play?

My only prior game with him was Newbie 1977, so no.

[Egix96]

I was being sarcastic, slimer...

[Egix96]

Preferably yes

[Egix96]

There's probably scum within {Wimpy | Hectic | Egix96 | DJ}

It's meaningless to say that a set of that size "probably" contains scum - cut it in half and then we'll be getting somewhere.

Voting randomly and mislynching gets us to lylo for two days and we won't have info, just because Hectic gave an answer from a town pov does not make him town especially when you look at the bigger picture.
VOTE: Hectic

Why do you think Egix is a mislynch?

I don't know if he is but your strategy would lead to a mislynch, and

I didn't really see Egix getting lynched in this situation

.

This seems like a strange thought to have. Why not?

[Egix96]

or I could unvote I guess

but will I???

find out next time on dragon ball z

Ok, actually I really dislike that post.
VOTE: chemist

The joke feels insincere, if that makes sense.
I think town!chem would have cared a bit more about a random player being placed at L-1, especially when 2 other people promised to quick-hammer... Not unvoting and trying to turn it into a joke kinda looks like chemist was focused more on “making himself appear chill” than on progressing the game in a good direction.

I wouldn’t mind a bigger wagon forming there.

UNVOTE: Egix

Urrrrk

Actually I don't like that this was all Chem had to offer
Feels like he saw that he was criticised for not unvoting when he had the chance, went and unvoted cause he felt pressured into doing it, and then just noped out.

[Egix96]

@Egix - Y U so mad, stranger?

I'm not mad
And I shouldn't be a stranger to you either - we were both in the Big Four game, remember?

[Egix96]

Egix is just sheeping... all of his reads till now were posted by someone else before he said anything about them
Feels kinda lazy/passive but tbh I’m not sure if it means anything.

Eh, I guess I've just been finding myself agreeing with you quite a bit.

Ejjinami can be shortened to Ejji... and some people call me Egi... coincidence?

@Dsjstr

how do you feel about lynching egix instead of hectic today?

Egix has been more interactive with people this game, I'll have to go back and look at our Newbie game but this doesn't look like the scum!Egix I remember

Tbf this might just be down to me finding more stuff that I feel like commenting on, compared to the other game.

[Egix96]

@egix @Wimpy who do you want to lynch?

Dsj, Chem, I'm fine with either.

And @egix what do you think of dsjstr’s posts about you?

I found 113 to be questionable because I myself thought that there was a fair chance that I might die.
As for 147, I've already commented on it, but yeah, I think it's a fair thought for him to have and thus not really AI.

Yeah, so basically it's a 3/5 chance from my perspective to randomly hammer scum, so lolhammering isn't actually a bad strategy.

But it depends on whether you think you have a chance of being lynched, since if not, an informed lynch is better than a mostly random one.

Egix' question to my question implied he doesn't have the same perspective as me in that most of the non-ICs out there are scum.

Egix, what's your response to this post? Do you agree/disagree with my take here?

VOTE: Doro

First part seems fair, yeah. I'm too used to playing games where quickhammering is frowned upon, I guess.
For the bolded part though, I feel like the "since if not" part should be the opposite - if you

do

think you might get lynched, then you should try to be right, because if you lynch wrong and then you eat rope next that's obviously no bueno.

Why? If you think you're gonna be lynched, why not take the 3/5 over risk yourself being lynched (which is a guaranteed mislynch from your perspective).

Ah I see, so it's a bit like self-pres-ing.

I was thinking more in terms of "if you get lynched next" than "if you get lynched now".

Taking a quick timeout

They're mostly based off of how you guys treat each other. It's D1, though, so they're boldly bullshit.

I should be more interested than I am.

Well I don't like the sound of this, so I could give you a timeout from the rest of the game if you'd like

Spoiler: OT

VOTE: Looker
Don't be discouraged. Got any examples for us?

I see what you did there!

[Egix96]

I've been trying to use the VC's as a way to calculate the scum team and there could be a reason why Hectic never had a wagon like Egix and myself. Ejj how is my read progression worse then Hectics?

Didn't a wagon briefly form on Hect after he fake-hammered me?

[Egix96]

A whole 2 people

nvm I thought it was 3

[Egix96]

Egix, remind me why you're voting Doro again? Anything changed since 67?

I just haven't really felt the need to move my vote since then. I'm aware I could have tried moving to Chem in 115, but I wanted to wait and see what he had to say about it first, and I can believe him when he says he was out with his friends.

I think I understand what dsj meant with 113 now - dsj was scumreading you at the time, so it was fair for him to presume that anyone you were trying to get lynched would be town. Also, he didn't think that

anyone other than you

would have put the hammer down on me, so it seems that the part I found strange in that post was just poorly phrased/incomplete.

Don't you recognize a depressed cry for help when you see one?

The thing is, the impression that I got from that part I bolded was that you were demotivated because you randed scum again after that mini normal.

Btw, if you are depressed and seeking help, then a mafia games forum isn't really a good place to be... you know? Just saying.

VOTE: Egix

L-1

Nice meme.

I'm gonna admit I cbf reading even a page of this game. So I am going to give an outside looking in analysis.

So lets talk Egix and Djester. Why did momentum swing to djester if egix is the seemingly universal scum read? Would everyone not just check on egix first. Bc that seems like the kinda move used to preserve an easy Lynch for a later day.

Which would tend to indicate that they are the two designated misslynches by scum.

You should probably be voting Looker if you want to make a difference then.

[Egix96]

Rolling scum does not demotivate me.

Idk about that - from what I remember you seemed to be (not really sure how best to put this) less...

into

the game in Mini2115 than in Big 4.

He should probably be voting who he thinks is scum. This will help us sort him later, unless you're saying you know he's town.

I see your point, but I was considering that a) we're getting close to deadline here, and b) Espeon's active hours seem to be quite limited based on his posting so far, so him voting off-wagon might not achieve much.

Egix, who are you actually scumreading?

That lost post feels very reactive.

Is it just Doro with a pinch of Misty?

Nah, Looker can replace Dsj now.

UNVOTE:

VOTE: Looker

Also {italicised} is a bit silly really - it was a catchup post, it's reactive by definition

[Egix96]

Sigh... it seems no one is online after all :/
That's a shame
VOTE: egix

I feel betrayed

VOTE: dsjstr

[Egix96]

Times up :/

Welp
Good luck at lylo I guess

[Egix96]

Nicely done, guys. I knew you could finish the job without me
