Mini Normal 2040: Day 4

[Elsa Jay]

Well if you called me with a FoS as well, it'd have been a different story. Even saying me and Dva were partners overreacting would have made it more likely.

My mind just works differently, I guess.

Anyone who hasn't commented yet want to get their word in on the situation?

[Clemency]

i'm just here to observe thanks

[Elsa Jay]

Well from your "observation", who's the 3 most likely scum ATM?

[Not_Mafia]

VOTE: Polo

whatever answer i could give you would be disingenuous because i don't believe it possible to tell the intentions of people off of this little information

[BrightEyedFish]

VOTE: Polo

???

[Elsa Jay]

You're trying to make sense of NotMaf. That was your first mistake.

After a quick look at his meta, I see that...

[Not_Mafia]

VOTE: Polo

???

What?

[Elsa Jay]

Ehh, my current strategy is to ignore him until day 2 in which he's either obviously town or still trolling.

My one time on a scum team with him was telling, though. He bussed his entire scum team and I was willing to hang him but then town fucked themselves.

His strength is coasting and bussing.

@Elsa Jay: He's just noting it's a little off that DVa asked the mod; and her defense is completely reasonable. I don't see how saying you and DVa are partners is likelier - a double assumption suspicion vs a mild "I'm looking at you" note.

I don't find tictac's response to being called out about daychat genuine. Something like "Oh, I didn't read the rules" or "There was scumchat in my previous game and I assumed it" might have been more natural. I've read that daychat is common now in any case.

But your answer would be slightly different if you were scum, and this information becomes useful to judge later - whether really made by town on what little information they had, or scum subtly followed an agenda.

Otherwise no one's gonna give any information through votes/FoSes, we get reduced to random lynching and give Mafia a good advantage.

Now, based on the little info we have so far, who are your most likely scum?

[Auro]

I'm FoSing tictac right now.
I think BEF's FoS at DVa (minus EJ) is NAI. Doesn't seem as off that he didn't point to EJ as well, since I feel it's more from the mod tag.

urge to Smurf around with people,

enemy or ally

Fluff around with me and I'll fluff around with ya.

I didn't like this, don't really know why

Otherwise he's borderline-posting, like avoiding total nullposts, but not giving content either.

I think you're reading too much into 2 posts

Spoiler:

Hi, all!

Clearly in his country, fluff is offensive, but fluffly, I don't understand why the fluff is fluff such a fluffling fluffed up word. It makes zero fluffing sense, ya fluff with me?

Haha no, it's fun doing this.

What didn't you like about the quoted text

urge to Smurf around with people,

enemy or ally

Fluff around with me and I'll fluff around with ya.

k.

@DVa I don't think either of ya individually scummy, but I'm drawing an associative here in blinky neon.
Ya can say ya understand why, so I don't hafta explain?

That's cool.

....? Did you understand what tictac was talking about here?

[Auro]

I'm less interested in the associative, more thinking about his scum equity in and of itself.

Basically just thinking of BBmolla's argument from our newbie game that "chummy = scummy"

Not that Sashaddin shouldn't have a sense of humor, just that I feel like he's

trying

to be funny in RVS. Kinda reminds me of how alien was before you replaced him in that last game

Probably not enough for right now. Anyone pinging you atm?

I really don't understand why people seem hate RVS humor. I think makes the game a bit more enjoyable at the stage. "Forced" is something really difficult to judge. Unless very obviously chummy, humor is gonna be NAI at worst for me.

P.S. Loved the joke in 62.

[tictac]

I think you're reading too much into 2 posts

Like, that is my opinion on those two posts(and the lack of humorous nullpost response to Trebor wagon or Overwatch discussion)
He's my most likely scum atm so I voted 4 him, DVa asked 4 my reasoning and I gave it. Not like I was trying to drive a fastlynch on him

Don't really think there is such a thing as too early to make an accusation.
Having little info simply means reads are weaker, not that 'scummiest person' isn't a thing that exists. (i.e. I agree with 86)
He's a bit better now that he started posting opinions, but I'm still getting RCE-like vibe off him.

What do ya think of bef not doing his usual 'end of RVS unvote' in 66?

[tictac]

His strength is coasting and bussing.

Pretty safe to say he's not bussing atm

If you really want me to create something out of nothing here, I'll give you three people who I have to reach least for:

Elsa Jay is naturally on my radar as he seems to be the most active person right out of the gate, which I try to look out for as an attempt to gain leadership from early into the game. Not necessarily scummy, obviously, but competent scum would want to be at the top of discussion within the game throughout.

D.va: the whole scumchat thing's already been said multiple times, don't need to repeat it.

Auro: You use too many abbreviations. My head hurts. Other than that, you're fine.

I hope I've fabricated enough content to make some talking points. If you need me, I'll be in my bunk.

I think it means tictac will want to lynch the second one of us if the first flips scum.

Ok. Not so cool then.

[Elsa Jay]

Oh I do that as both town and scum. Nothing unusual there Clem.

[ofrhz]

What do ya think of bef not doing his usual 'end of RVS unvote' in 66?

IIRC he unvotes at the end of RVS as both town and scum, so idk, I didn't draw any meaning from it. Why do you ask?

[ofrhz]

I think his FoS on DVa was a little towny coming from him though

[ofrhz]

^ that was still about BEF

Since the difference in how he does it as scum or as town was pointed out last game, I thought he might be intentionally avoiding giving that tell.
