A Story Revisited (Anything uPick): Day 6

[Porkens]

I never reach out as scum. Only devide and distract.

[Porkens]

Oops it’s not bold.

I’ll spam to the next page...

[Porkens]

Jjduck scum

[Porkens]

Hello, I am to drunk from my birthday party to post like I want to.

I'm 30 now, what?

VOTE: Martina

Good evening, I hope to be back tomorrow

Hah this is scum

[Porkens]

ARI CREATURE HI

Hey hey!
Do I need to read 110 pages or is there a quick tl;dr for me?

Great to see you Aristophanes and Creature!

Here's one of the several recent quick summaries of existing claims to get started:

Mastina claims loyal town gladiator
Vecna had an optional post restriction D1 he played out for role related benefits.
Skygazer is/was ascetic
I'm a video vendor. I can vend any time.
Firebringer can give guns????

I can't remember at the moment what else we've covered claim wise.

Ari, I know you know the real identity of both heads of our hydra, so I appreciate you keeping that on the D/L even though you probably replaced into a scum slot

-RH

Hey man, regardless of alignment I would never purposely out alts/hydrae

What makes you think me scum already lol? I just got here!

Scum

[Porkens]

Oh god I’m being pm’d by the mods.

[Porkens]

Oh shut they are gunna ban me for spamming

[Porkens]

I hope they ban me until December tbh

[Porkens]

Gnight

[Porkens]

Creature how sure are you about Mastina?

[Nero Cain]

NSG is scum b/c she had Titus as dead null and then randomly votes Varsoon without explaining why or attempting to get a wagon on him. What does scum do when they are getting scum read? Vote their buddy. This also makes me think that the whole Varsoon thing was a planned bus all along.

Now sheep me Pork.

[Vecna]

Obviously it was a mixed up quote with you pasting it into scum chat.

Busted. Scumslip.

How did you know my access to the scumchat thread is why I might need to be replaced?

Yes Nero....that is suspicious as fuck

[Vecna]

mastina's flavor isn't Ginngie

VOTE: mastina

Now were talking

[Vecna]

She's not Ginngie, so she should have some fitting flavor for her mafia gladiator role

To lock out the possibility of a redirector, simply claim your result. Then people will tell you if you got their flavour (by redirection or w/e).

[Gamma Emerald]

The first person to explain their top scumread to me in a short, convincing way gets my vote.

Just pageyop it in bold so it’s easy for me to see.

And do it several times.

Or just gin up a wagon and I’ll hammer it 4u

Creature/Martina is a garbage gladiator.

Fire, creature, Nero,

These are lockdown.

Vote with me! Together we will win the game

Wow, contradicting yourself not 2 posts apart

[Gamma Emerald]

here is the speed I would like this game to go:

here is mastina speed:

I do not think your argument sends the message you're intending it to.
The first image is entirely meh. I am arguably more a cat person than a dog person given we own two cats to the one dog and have owned double the number of cats than dogs over my lifetime (rest in peace, my dearies), but that image just...kinda falls flat for me. It's a cat, okay. But it's a cat poorly edited into a background. It's based around some shitty meme no doubt, one which I am entirely unfamiliar with.

It is altogether something that I find utterly uninteresting.

The second image on the other hand is just d'awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. It's

adorable

. It's probably stage, yes, but it's also not 'shopped. It's a video, one which is self-evidently a real thing which happened. Not without help, of course, because I doubt that happens without humans setting it up, but it still is real. It has an actual connection, and it's cute. It's something that is just more real, and more heartwarming, bringing a smile to my face.

So I'll gladly accept the latter as being me, and you do you and be the first but that's just not my taste, thankyouverymuch, and it never will be.

This is disgusting btw. It completely dodges the point

With 18 alive, 10 is the proposed Gladiate Threshhold. If you want to reduce or increase the threshold, please indicate as such.

FB has two of my votes and NR has none of my votes. Not sure if I indicated NR before, but NR is a fine gladiate target.

[Vecna]

The use of his ability there was a literal scumclaim which I could go into more detail on but see no reason to

Please go into detail. Your explanation for voting Varsoon over Nico still doesn't make sense to me.

VOTE: jjh

It makes complete sense for anyone that was there at the time. Not that that in itself is AI, but it was very obvious that it was between Mastina and Varsoon at the time.

[Creature]

Okay, I've got the result that my target has:
- 4 As in role
- 1 A in flavor

[Creature]

I'm not fakeclaiming, I checked plenty of times I was checking mastina and that this was the result I got.

[Vecna]

I have no idea why she announced again today that I visited her, did not see much town logic in it, but whatever.

My reasoning was because you needed to know you succeeded. Yesterday, because RC had a delay in telling me, and I had a further delay in telling you, it was almost disastrous, because we were going down a wrong train of thinking, thinking that you had failed, when you hadn't.

If I didn't claim, wouldn't you be wondering why I wasn't mentioning it? Wouldn't you think to ask RC, and if he confirmed, wonder if your action failed?

Oh, guess it wasnt clear that I was trying to trap NR then. Which she kinda felt for, stating she got a no result on you, probably under the assumption my claims would let her get away with it (check out the order of events here, its pretty interesting id say). I never really was in doubt whether my action succeeded on you. I was pretending the mod told me my action failed.

[Vecna]

this game has some of the worst mechanics i have ever seen in a mafia game.

like next to undertale mafia actually where there was zero scum.

Can we please just insta-gladiate this slot? How is this not a scum-claim fed up with Mastina's role? Just like the varsoon anger.

Really, we do not need to have this dragged out much longer, do we?

[Gamma Emerald]

Okay, I've got the result that my target has:
- 4 As in role
- 1 A in flavor

I have an idea what your flavor is if that’s all you’re claiming

[Vecna]

I wanna see if mastina will change her flavorclaim or argue there's a redirector

Nope!
Because I know my fucking flavor.
I am Ginngie.
You are barking up the absolute worst tree possible because there are ZERO worlds where you win this fucking fight.
Because I can pretty definitively prove that was not only my pick, but also the role I got. The evidence is pretty conclusive and stupendously self-evident. It's right there in your face.

Plus I don't lie about flavor, ever.
I never lie about flavor as town because I never have any reason to tell that sort of lie. There's never been a game where I've seen reason to need to lie about my flavor as town, because simply put I've never had a flavor that I'd want to lie about.

I never lie about flavor as scum because I have EVERY reason to tell the truth about flavor, short of flavor being actually alignment-indicative.
Sure, yeah, if you're running a game where the Crew of Serenity is all the good guys and their enemies are all the bad guys, flavor becomes alignment-indicative (I abandoned ship on that review for good reason ), but in any competently designed game where flavor is alignment-indicative the nontown have safeclaims for flavor. In a game like this one though, role is done separately from flavor.

I don't know when exactly alignments are rolled in a UPick, but the process isn't "Oh hey this player picked exclusively bad people, therefore, they are scum"; it is more along the lines of "Oh this player rolled town/scum, now with that flavor I'm going to design this to give them powers for that alignment" (more or less).

There is never a scenario where I ever lie about my flavor and you fucking know it.

I am Ginngie because that is literally one of the only two roles I would pick.
And good luck trying to fit my role into the other one I'd pick.

So, then INSTA-GLADIATE creature, if he's confirmed to be lying to you? Show us that your role produces guilties in the claimed way, and all this whine about your slot will go away. People will settle into hunting down the remaining scum tomorrow.

We dont need a democratic process if you know he's lying. Your role gives you that power. Fuck what we agreed before, people have changed their mind and appreciate some speed.
