I don't really have anything concrete, because we've been talking about mechanics so far and that hasn't been particularly helpful to me. Mostly just gutreads I don't feel confident enough in to share.ShowWill protect people not in the game

Wow knowing that people flip killed pretty much what I had.

This post is going to be on the AtE side of things, and if that annoys you, I apologize. This will be copied and pasted to all the games that I am currently playing.
Guys, I have some unfortunate news. Some background information first. At the moment, I am unemployed and have been for the past year. However, a couple days ago, a friend alerted me that a couple of openings were available at the warehouse that he was working at, and today was the first day of the trial run before they decide who gets the job. And you know how I feel right now? I'm in pain. My back aches, the lower thighs are burning, and I have no strength left in my arms. I just want to go to sleep right now. And it's going to be like this or worse for the next 2 weeks as well. But I need this job. I desperately need to make this happen. But I don't think I will have the time to play this game. So I am effectively dropping out of the game.

No. Anybody who gets trapped on a segment that's not their own segment remains a mystery (without flips).In post 129, Infinity 324 wrote:Again, even if the mod didn't tell us who flipped, it'd be obvious from who got trapped...

I think your proposition would break a rule about using an outside influence to affect the game, unfortunately. I suggest you just ask the mod to replace you and we will continue on.
Good luck!
But yeah that's not something scum would say

I have played scum with Vedith and moderated a game where Vedith(Dishy Dishington) becomes scum. I never liked either opening. The fact that I like his opening is a flag for me. Granted, it's just meta, but hey, read can change right? Until that read change, I am townreading him.In post 128, Tenshii wrote:@Realeo, can you elaborate on your Vedith townread?

This is like the classic scene of a game of Resistance. "I swear that I am the rebel. I will flip the role card if I can but the rule can't!"
I have no problem with your reasoning of replacing out. In fact, good luck with your trial run!

I'm currently dealing with the rule breach in #130. For the time being, reso should stop posting. Everyone else, please try not to discuss this matter for the time being, as it may make it harder to recover the game.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- Realeo

In the interest of other topic......so Not_Mafia posted in 3 or 4 other games but not in this game. He better explains the scum claim thingy when he comes.

You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.I'm guessing you haven't read the game and probably never will?

Help me extract something from him. Vedith, you know that my concern is valid.

OK, so I'm waiting to hear back from the listmods about how to continue the game, but it seems very likely that reso's slot is compromised as a result of the rule breach. (reso, you could have made things so much easier by just replacing out rather than breaking the rules; now you know for the future. Best of luck with your new job.)
Here are the most likely ways in which the game could be recovered:
a) As it's still early in the game, it may be possible to restart the game with the other 8 players + a replacement, rerolling alignments. If this happened, I'd close this thread and start a new thread; effectively another game with the same setup, and this game being cancelled.
b) It might also be possible to remove reso's slot from the game, and continue as an 8-segment game. I'd need to adjust the resources available to players in order to keep the game fair (going through 8 segments is easier than going through 9). In particular, some players would need to volunteer to give up their ability to flee.
If both options turn out to be possible, I'd be interested to know which the remaining players would prefer to take. The decision here isn't affected by the play-to-win rule (i.e. you can choose the option you feel would be more fun if you wish even if you think the other option would give you a higher chance to win, although of course you can make your decision based on factors like victory if you want to). Because a player's preferences might end up depending on their alignment, and I want players to be able to make a free choice without having to worry about how it would look to the other players,please use PMs to me to express your opinion or if you wish to discuss the situation; do not discuss this in the game thread.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement

The list moderators have requested that I restart the game. Players within the game also mostly (although not unanimously) requested a restart.
As such, I'll be closing this game and starting a new one (with rerolled alignments) once I have a replacement for reso. (The replacement game won't be able to start immediately; it'll be at least several hours, because I've been awake for ages and need to sleep at some point.) If any current players want to replace out, or don't want to play in a restarted game, let me know, and I can find a replacement for your slot too; finding replacements is normally disruptive to the game, but replacing a player during a restart causes no disruption, so this is a better time than any other to replace out.
One thing I have to be careful about with a restarted game is to avoid players getting a meta advantage and/or disadvantage from their knowledge of the aborted run of the game. As such, I'm going to publicly disclose the identity of the Maze Guardians; they wereInfinity 324andRealeo. The abandoned Maze Guardian discussion thread, however, will remain private and locked until the restarted game has finished (at which point this game's Maze Guardians can release it as normal).
Sorry for the inconvenience, everyone.scum· scam · seam · team · term · tern · torn ·town- callforjudgement
