Mini Theme 2007: Police Academy 1 - Game Over

[Jingle]

yah well i'm irritated. apparently there's TWO ALTS who are being dicks and playing mind games with me that i dont fucking care for. so I'M GOING TO GO AWAY AND PLAY MINECRAFT AND MORROWIND FOR THE WEEKEND. and when i come back on monday maybe i'll feel more like dealing with stupid shit.

two alts? I get pun, but who is the other?

[EspeciallyTheLies]

HEY BUTTHEAD. HOW MANY POSTS TO OTHER PEOPLE IN MY ISO ARE THERE?

back of the napkin if you get two different checks on two different people it's 75% they're different alignments

VOTE: stop getting banned again

oh this is smart.

OK I'M ACTUALLY JESTER, IDK ABOUT THOSE FUCKERS, BUT MY HEAD GOT PM'D JESTER CULT LEADER
Seriously though, we're here just to outlive Democracy.
Just... nk us n1, and we'll be happy.

*sigh*

I understand being silly in RVS, but seriously... this isn't even constructive. It's just spam.

6 PAGES OF BULLSHIT LATER....

Tonight we all target the horrible abomination hydra. Horrible abomination hydra? You get to target whomsoever you choose (/insert shitty who alt joke). Lucky you. If we end up PLing the hydra today, we need to do so after someone has obvtowned, so we can all target them.

hey look! that's the same idea i had!

YAY JINGLE TOWN ILY

Wrong. Target obvtown, that way scum is disincentivized from shooting them but they can be reasonably be assumed to be town anyway, at least D1. That way scum is forced to help us if they want to get rid of the unlynchable slot. Otherwise, you get to be a good boy.

heee ♥

ok so we will be the obligatory sanity-checking sacrifice

everyone target us tonight and then lynch us D2 to know your sanity

No. Hang.

I fully expect 3/4 of the hydra to have flaked by the end of the weekend. We don't need to operate on a shrinking tumor.

remission != elimination
So far (page 9) they are STILL an annoying, spam-posting, trolling, horrible THING that needs to be removed completely from every game ever. It's

ruining the game for me

i mean, real talk, i dont really understand how a hydra like this can possibly work in the context of mafia.
i cant hold any specific head accountable for any specific post and if i ask a question, someone else is probably just going to answer it.
theres literally no accountability with a hydra this big.
:/

TRUTH

anyway we're 10 pages in and we've basically solved this whole game

If by "solved" you mean "shit on everything and drown out everyone else who has a right to contribute and make it difficult for people to enjoy the game", then sure.

@Mod request you force replace hydra please

I second this.

@Mod request you force replace hydra please

There were clearly posted warnings.

That's like saying, "I told you I was an asshole, so you're the one at fault for my shitty behavior."

Nuh uh. Stop being a fucking troll and play the game,

or shut the fuck up

.

@Mod replace me please.

*sigh* the first casualty of hydra trolling BS...

VOTE: Gork

No.

D1 lynch is going to be a crapshoot, might as well be the most annoying poster here. I've already got some great town reads. You and gork being the top of the list.

---end of page 11---

ok i have to stop here and get some work done. i'll be back later.

*sigh*

I concur with your plan ETL. However, I am a selfish woman. I'd like to skip the paranoid of each other phase and use you as the check tonight and just lynch the annoying as fuck hydra. Spam and using horrible language.

Yeah sure but you're not going to get anything useful unless you lynch me tomorrow, right? You don't know what sanity you are. And if you're doing it for "paranoia" reasons, that's just a shitty hole I don't want to get into because even though I know my alignment, you're not going to take my word for it to check against your result. The only way to check your sanity, and even then only probable sanity until you get multiple checks against multiple flips, is by investigating then lynching the same target. If you plan on pushing for my lynch tomorrow already, that's a different story. I hope that's not the case because then this becomes less paranoia and more scum planning.

So if we are all agreed that we lynch the hydra tomorrow, checking them tonight will give us results to compare against the lynch tomorrow and give us a jump start on figuring out sanities.

We don't need sacrifice lynches. Just use the checks as a rotating doctor.

If we wanted to push our luck, we could do two groups of 6.

I don’t understand - can you clarify what you mean? What’s your idea?

We're not lynching the designated "target tonight player" tomorrow.

Wait, what? We're not? I thought that was the plan?

Though I do agree with you the posting got better

after 11 pages...

Reading more.. until lunch is over.

You don’t target the designated lynch target with a doctor. You target someone you’re pretty sure is town. Same with the pseudo doc.

Then what is even the point. Our roles are useless.

This is essentially mountainous.

Back to work for me. I couldn't concentrate on what I was reading so I'll have to read it again later.

JINGLE. READ THIS DANGIT.

READ IT RIGHT NOW. LOOK WHAT I FOUND.

Jingle, I need you to walk me through you hydra read, please. And I don't want any of that "meta, trust me" bs. Give me tangible, reasonable, provable reasons. SHOW me.

eDDIE

[EspeciallyTheLies]

We use a different person, not the hydra as a target. We can read the Creature head and make that slot conf!town (or conf!scum). Creature signs his posts as per town wincon. I can read Creature well enough to know if they fake Creature posts. I get it, they're annoying, but our wincon isn't lynch the annoying slots.

Penguin townie. ETL and Pun probably has a scum. Jingle is townie but I have no clue how to read him. No read on Mulch yet. Why is Titus a wagon exactly?

1) schadd - idk who pun is, boon? me: boon wouldnt give a read of confidence on me this early, especially without a vote (in a rxn test)
2) schadd - i kinda think that slot is town, me: nobody should be able to read me that quickly but ya its kinda town
3) schadd - fos etl, me: agree
4) me - scum in etl pun fosho, schadd ye

It is "explained".

NO??????

HEY GUYS, I'M THE BEST BECAUSE I'M THE BEST. SO GOOD EXPLANATION, I'M SO GOOD.

More importantly,

I explained why I was voting her.

You

literally

did not.

VOTE: eddie

VOTE: etl

These are all the posts "explaining" your vote.

Liar.

This is scum fixating on a random minute point. ETL genuinely believed we didn't explain our vote, and they're extrapolating that into making us their mislynch target / push. It

literally

doesn't make us scum if it was true, and town etl is

literally

too good to be that daft. Stop AtE spamming and play the game.

this doesn't even make sense you turd and dont fucking tell me what to do. like who the fuck are you? you don't know jack shit about me. to say "they genuinely believed X" and then try to say the subsequent vote is a scum move MAKES ZERO SENSE.

[Jingle]

Fair enough, I was forgetting 638, which is weird cause I literally just pulled up a quote wall of things that felt towny for that.

Everything before 616 is null from you and you know it.

I admit that 616 is EXACTLY what I expect from town you, but there are other aspects of your towngame I haven't seen yet that leave me with doubt. Talk to me about Gork then. Still a townread? Any particularly townie posts I should see?

[Jingle]

Eddie is a hydra of Eddie Cane (who is the only one playing atm) and schadd_.

I don't remember Eddie from our heyday, but apparently he thinks he knows you, which is odd given the lack of recognition about AP. I think he had a bunch of alts outed as part of team mafia this year, but would have to check to be sure.

[eddie]

I wasn't asked to explain why you were scum. I was asked why I voted you. I voted you for outlined reasons. I am not interested in talking to a raging pile of annoying AtE, so talk to be when the supposed great player ETL that carried JJ's game is back not this garbage shouting whining mess.

I don't really know ETL or you, besides reputation. I read around a lot. Also, I'm friends with some older people and they've talked about ETL specifically. I probably have about 15 alts/hydras and this is technically an alt, but I'm still new.

[Ginngie]

I wasn't asked to explain why you were scum. I was asked why I voted you.

I'm pretty sure it's a known thing to explain a scum read when it comes to why someone votes.

Like 'why did you vote me' is synonymous with 'why are you scumreading me'

mainly because you don't vote your town reads

[EspeciallyTheLies]

Talk to me about Gork then. Still a townread? Any particularly townie posts I should see?

I dunno. It was a feeling. I know I've played with Gork before. I know Gork is good as scum. I know I can't really read him so I go by "the usual" meaning how I would read someone I don't know, and based on that I thought his responses and thoughts about the game state in general were more likely to come from engaged town thinking about gamesolving rather than from scum.

In short, gut, mostly. At the moment, yes sstill a town read. I haven't reevaluated yet as I haven't felt the need to do so.

pedit: jj? what jj game?? also, saying "i voted because x is scum" is not a sufficient explanation, and i'm pretty sure i'm not the only one here who thinks that.

give more. denying everyone information for the sake of calling someone a "raging pile of annoying AtE" is a really lame copout. also fuck off.

[eddie]

if you want to stop being a <redacted> and play mafia, explain why I'm scum? For someone so fixated on that you haven't actually done that.

that random mini normal you played a while ago, wasn't it the game jj hosted? i read almost every game in new york at least lightly.

[Jingle]

Hey, we carried that game by being a team. I demand equal credit. Or maybe all the credit. I like credit.

JJ was the mod for the mason game with flubbs and wicked.

[eddie]

i don't remember u being in it

[eddie]

oh, etl unvoted me before i posted and i dont get pedits. hm. that changes it a bit

[EspeciallyTheLies]

i dont know if you're scum or not. but i think your play stinks. it makes more sense to me that scum would make such bad posts.

[eddie]

I'm obliging and mostly ignoring ETL btw Jingle. But, I'll talk to you about her! From my meta I gather she's a top tier scum and high tier town, would you agree that's true? What are the major things I should look for for town!ETL or scum!ETL?

What do you make of ETL voting Mastina or other anonymous pun?

Why is Porkens town?

[EspeciallyTheLies]

jingle i think this is the first time my reputation has actually preceded me. it's one thing to play with people you've played with before but another to play with someone who knows you but has never played a game with you at all.

i dont know whether to be flattered or annoyed.

I don't think I've played with Jingle before either.

if pun is actually mastin that would make some sense. i'd need confirmation on that.

[eddie]

this post is top notch btw

the ones where you try to pass off "one in pun etl is scum" as an "explanation" of your vote and stubbornly trying to stick to that as some cheeky point as though it's anywhere close to enough for anyone.

[eddie]

she's said she's not going to confirm, so unfort. we don't get that.
