Touhou UCanPick 5 - [Game Over]

[Sky_Paladin]

Why shoot purrc when he was bloody obvious town, and why not give him the opportunity to shoot you when that sort of rash reaction would basically be a scumclaim?

This strategy would have been fine if Gamma had shot yesterday; we would have been free for you to vig me today. But Gamma didn't shoot and we had a no lynch. So effectively our game plan was stalled by a stage-or-two. Don't worry, I'm sure you'll still get to vig me sooner or later.

@Mod

prods pl0x. Also @Mod. Would *YLO be announced in this game?

[FakeGod]

I've sent out the prods.

LyLo is not announced in this game.

[Sky_Paladin]

Many thanks.

What do reads even mean when there's one scum left

Like I thought it was hebi or you and hebi flipped town and you and some other people speaking in riddles seem to have enacted an illuminati level global conspiracy to do some shit

I assume you're all in some huge neighborhood talking strategy and I can't imagine why this game has stalled and I've been so disengaged nope not a clue

Well I'll assure you I'm not in any neighborhoods (and haven't been all game). Perhaps if we have some town neighborhoods going they would like to share their private discussions with the class?

I'm interested in your reads because it's good that you can point to scum and why but I'm also interested in why you have other slots as town. I'll let the assumption that there's only one scum left slide because without a *YLO it's just speculation until game over.

So for me Kiana/Titus are locktown, and so is Katy, because of their actions in the early game bagging 2x scum. I feel like I helped a little but it was mainly just a lucky RVS that I chose to lazytown and stay on.
Gamma/Lex are mid tier town for me, with Lex a little more towny than Gamma because I like Lex's reasoning or something, I can't remember what I said last time.
Then we have the troublesome afk slots which is Nico and yourself.

??? what are you going to do to change the situation if you dislike it so?

[Sky_Paladin]

I mean "guess I'll die" is a valid strat but I can't see a town player doing that. Which is why I pushed for Purr getting shot over letting Purr shoot me. I know I'm town, and Purr had over 250 posts that are almost entirely non-content. Struggling to understand why you saw this slot as town. Maybe you could tell me your secrets?

[Titus]

So for me Kiana/Titus are locktown, and so is Katy, because of their actions in the early game bagging 2x scum.

Explain how this happened please.

[Sky_Paladin]

No. You need to read the game you lazy fuck. You may be a locktown slot but if you don't know the game state you are no use to me.

[Sky_Paladin]

I realise that came out harsher than I meant.

Your prior comment that you didn't know we could use spell cards during the night phase, combined with you being oblivious to Katy's vig (and Kiana/Sky's involvement) strongly implies you haven't read the game.

I'd like some assurance you are at least paying attention to what is going on.

[Sky_Paladin]

VOTE: Elbirn

Forever alone.

[Titus]

I generally start from where I sub in and have people explain their positions because a) It makes town assess their validity b) it can highlight groupthink and c) stops me from engaging in groupthink.

Why Elbrin?

[Sky_Paladin]

It comes off to me as lazyscum who wants somebody to feed them their reads. You should ask all the players not just the ones who are posting (which is just me apparently). If I didn't already have you locktown I would be asking "Do you have examples of doing this in recent town games?" but I'm never voting you unless we're in LYLO and its you, me and Katy, so don't spend your time on that. I would like you to read the game because at the moment my main scum reads are

also the most inactive players

and that position does not sit well with me. If Gamma/Lex are scum, they've probably eluded me.

I ISO'd Elbirn and a couple of other players in the prior day phase; my reads were largely in line with Katy/Kiana although I was less convinced on town!Gamma than they were (iirc).

This was mainly off the back of me basically sheeping Kiana from day 1 because I really liked her intro posts - they seemed stronk town and her involvement in getting Human and Brian reinforced my position. So I liked Katy and your slot from probably the middle of day 1 although I had suspicions about Katy even after she'd vigged HS because we had soooo many vigs. I also ISO'd Lex and I'm pretty happy with Lexa.

Elbirn's posts look good and check in and look towny a lot but I just get a bad feeling about the slot. He has also had issues with me for being inactive; which was valid at the start of the game because I was V/LA for nine days although now he is more inactive so shrugface. his posts this day phase don't inspire me with a whole lot of "LOOK THIS IS A TOWN SLOT" confidence. So I thought "Let's vote here and see what happens."

[Lexa]

Someone remind me who's claimed what

[Gamma Emerald]

No. You need to read the game you lazy fuck. You may be a locktown slot but if you don't know the game state you are no use to me.

Titus doesn't do that (though they really should)

[FakeGod]

Katyusha has been replaced by ActionDan.

NicoRobin picked up the prod.

[Gamma Emerald]

we need to do something here

[ActionDan]

I'll get the ducks in order tomorrow.

With 9 alive it takes 5 votes to lynch.

Countdown to deadline: (expired on 2018-04-24 10:00:00)

[Sky_Paladin]

NicoRobin picked up the prod.

But they didn't post in this game, so...?

Hi ActionDan, long time no see.

we need to do something here

Half the phase has gone and half the players haven't posted anything of substance. What do?

I'm not averse to pushing through a NicoRobin lynch if time starts running short.

[Lexa]

I'm reminded of a thing, everyone should post full reads

Sky Pally you go first and popcorn it

[Sky_Paladin]

Sky Pally you go first and popcorn it

I don't know what you mean by popcorn it?

Wfff I already gave my reads twice on this page sigh.

Handsomest tier: Sky
Top tier town: Katy/Titus
Next-best-tier: Lexa
Cake-tier: Gamma
Scummers: NicoRobin/DaLetterEl, Elbirn

[Lexa]

Popcorn means you pick the next person, and so on

[Gamma Emerald]

wtf is cake-tier lmao

[Sky_Paladin]

Hmm

Tempted to pick Titus because they gave the position of "Dont want to be influenced by group think" so they should probably have gone first.

Elbirn already said they don't have reads/reads don't matter (which I disagree). And Nico does not exist.

Out of Lex/Gamma I am most interested in seeing Gamma's reads.

So in the interest of not stalling the game vorever, I choose Gamma-type Pokemon.

wtf is cake-tier lmao

Well, a good cake has several layers, like an ogre.

My personal favourite is cookies and cream cheesecake for the middle tier in between two chocolate cakes, sealed in with a thick layer of caramel sauce.

In this context, cake-tier means 'this person is a town read for me, however is the least confident of my town reads'.

[Sky_Paladin]

vorever

uh

I don't know how I made that typo

It certainly isn't because I was talking about Gamma and comparing him favourably to cake.

[Sky_Paladin]

Gamma, I see you are online. How about those reads?

Notice me pl0x sempai

[Gamma Emerald]

sorry I was watch youtube
my reads are something like this
shouldn't be lynched outside of lylo:
AD, Titus
meh tier:
Sky_Paladin, Elbirn, NicoRobin, Lexa

Why did everyone townclear Lexa again? I honestly want to poke around there. But I want Titus reads next.
