The Fifth Fortnight (Game Over!)

[Spiffeh]

more drama please

[Spiffeh]

I need Firebringer to throw a drink in someone's face

[Spiffeh]

This game will be boring if Cake is scum we have to pretend it’s not him for a little

[Spiffeh]

So how do you guys like my content so far?!?!?

[Spiffeh]

Hi everyone just casual town Spiff over here pay me no mind

[Spiffeh]

I predict that Gorkington will scumread me when he posts again. Let’s see if I’m right!

[Spiffeh]

Nah I just thought you’d scum read me in addition to him

[Spiffeh]

SirCakez is a perfectly valid wagon I’m just saying it’ll be boring if he’s scum

This is my first game in like 4 months I want it to be worthwhile!

[Spiffeh]

this is a dumb argument. why would it be more fun to have a series of bad, useless wagons?

Luckily I’m not advocating for bad, useless wagons

[Spiffeh]

Gorkington I appreciate you

[Spiffeh]

if the way im playing is bothering you so much i can leave?

Can you not I hate when you do that

[Spiffeh]

Gorkington's case is outstanding bus'ing. Both are scum.

God you're getting better and better at drawing town reads from me


Next time see if you can get me to read you town during the sign-ups

Actually in a game where scum immediately lose the game if their partner gets lynched I’d argue that’s probably the worst observation she’s made so far.

What do you town read about this (and please elaborate beyond “I know DGB”)

[Spiffeh]

hey guys I think SirCakez is a decent vote rn but I don't want the game to stall but I also don't want to ruin what I think is a good wagon and don't really have any alternative what do I do?

[Spiffeh]

Actually I have a super secret scum read on someone but I don't think a Lynch on this person is realistic at this time (or maybe ever!) so that's fun I guess

[Spiffeh]

Don’t worry guys I’m not scum

[Spiffeh]

For people to think I’m not scum

[Spiffeh]

I wonder if our secret scum reads are the same person!!!

[Spiffeh]

@BrightEyedFish SirCakez probably. I kinda feel his disappearance from the thread after all this pressure works against him in this case because town!him should know that early wagons are generally for pressure and will probably be temporary. In this setup scum have A LOT more to lose being thrust into the spotlight so early in the way SirCakez has so I imagine his general “this is unfair” attitude is more likely to come from scum.

There’s another reason too but he promised to post today so I want to see that before mentioning it.

[Spiffeh]

It’s not that groundbreaking so don’t get your hopes up lol

[Spiffeh]

WRT Cakez, I feel like the pace of the game threw him off. I think he expected the usual large-game bullshitting around for twenty pages, and was taken aback when he felt like people were calling him out for not scumhunting.

His anger toward bowing out feels genuine to me. I do somewhat lean toward it being town-indicative because frankly, it's not the presumptive HOW DARE YOU of caught scum, but more the "oh fuck this" exasperation.

I just don't think Cakez is scum in this exchange.

kureebs who are you scumreading rn?

[Spiffeh]

Is there a reason that you picked Cogito at the time over BBmolla or UT? What set him apart?

[Spiffeh]

@Cake I guess your characterization of Cogito’s play can apply now but at the time you voted him it was like 9ish hours into the game and I don’t think lack of content at that point is all that egregious.

What are some of your other reads?

[Spiffeh]

We should rebel against the oldies

[Spiffeh]

FB I think you only ever scumread me when I’m town

[Spiffeh]

Gorkington I think our secret scumreads are the same person

[Spiffeh]

Can we not leave Cakes at L-1? If he’s town scum can hammer him and flee

[Spiffeh]

Hey everyone how’s all the mafia-ing going?

[Spiffeh]

Hey everyone how’s all the mafia-ing going?

There is scum among the players trying to avoid talking about finding scum.

Like who?

[Spiffeh]

VOTE: SirCakez

[Spiffeh]

If we end up mislynching I'm just gonna compile a list of the lurkers and let random.org decide

[Spiffeh]

YOU’RE AN ALT OF CHEETORY6?!?!?!?

[Spiffeh]

Firebringer if it helps you can just remove me from your list of suspects and never consider I am anything other than town for the rest of the game?

[Spiffeh]

It feels fine, I have nothing else to say really!

[Spiffeh]

Like I understand the crusade against lurkers/inactive players and in most circumstances would support it but the nature of this setup makes me hesitant to abandon the player who I feel has exhibited the scummiest behavior and lose momentum there in exchange for what is mostly a crapshoot.

And I don't really talk about other reads because I feel if I'm too aggressive about it like usual and we mislynch my ~secret scum read~ will flee (although I've cooled down VERY slightly about them fyi) and then I'd be left without really any idea of what to do

So yeah all I have left to do is make sure I'm not the most accused player because that's an auto-loss!

[Spiffeh]

Cakez is there a reason you never really addressed this? Or point me to where you did please?

first off I'm voting Cogito b/c I'm pretty sure scum are hiding in the margins this game and Cogito is pretty much the most in the margins you can get. Just four posts and they're basically getting no attention from anyone except Fish and I. Don't think I explained that before.

@Cake I guess your characterization of Cogito’s play can apply now but at the time you voted him it was like 9ish hours into the game and I don’t think lack of content at that point is all that egregious.

What was your initial reason for voting Cogito?

[Spiffeh]

Shoshin’s reaction and subsequent vote onto Bright are revolting

[Spiffeh]

I still would like to eliminate SirCakez.

[Spiffeh]

I would just like to say that if Cakez does end up flipping town then accusing me is an automatic loss because I’m town so don’t do it!

Even if you think “Oh that post from Spiffeh trying not to get accused is sketchy af let me accuse him!” you’ll still lose so like get over yourself and target someone else so you have an actual chance of winning

Hopefully he’s scum and this won’t be an issue!

[Spiffeh]

Np!

[Spiffeh]

Ugggghhhhhhhhhhh

[Spiffeh]

I might accuse xRECKONERx don’t @ me

[Spiffeh]

I am not considerable

[Spiffeh]

I would have acted like I was doing things WAY more as scum

[Spiffeh]

Shoshin I suggest you check out some of my previous scum games if you are really worried about it, they should probably quell your fears!

I'm also pretty obv not Firebringer's buddy so I promise you will have a lot more success looking elsewhere if you're town

[Spiffeh]

I kiiiiiiiiinda did that already in Transformers, town just imploded too quickly to realize that my content was all for show

[Spiffeh]

Aw Transformers what a beautiful victory

[Spiffeh]

I have submitted xRECKONERx

[Spiffeh]

I won!
