~Buttercup

i dont even know who buttercup is, so signing as that doesnt tell me much anyway

Here's a helpful guide that I put together earlier:

/in as hydra of Hectic, Hopkirk, and Flopz

Confirming Hopkirk.

Now I know what you're all wondering. On our avatar which one is which powerpuff girl? We spent a few hours vigorously debating this. We had to kick EgdufEkac out of the hydra in the end because she insisted that she get to be her overpowered self insert powerpuff girl from her powerpuff girls fanfic. This worked out pretty well in the end since we realized there was a maximum of three heads anyway.

Blossom - The pink/red smart one and the leader of the group. I wanted to go with Bubbles until Flopz started sending me photoshopped fanart of me dressed as Bubbles. Obviously it didn't look anything like me and was super weird, but I really didn't want him to keep sending me more pictures so in the end I just agreed to make him stop. Spoilers - he didn't.

Bubbles - The blue airhead. I'm blonde and have blue eyes so obviously Flopz insisted on being this one. Not a smart move picking the airhead Flopz, feels like the kind of move Bubbles would make tbh.

Buttercup - The green angry tomboy. Flopz wanted to be this one at the start so Hectic knocked most of his teeth out and that pretty much decided things. Hectic broke both of Flopz's kneecaps anyway just to be on the safe side. I for one support this move, mostly because I love my kneecaps.

disappointed by low posting by Ban Hydras so far - 3 ppl but not top poster?

I reckon we could have gotten nine if not for the silly 3 headed hydra rule

-Blossom

Insightful. Which one is scum?

458 Dunno how i feel about early big reads lists as it comes off as a bit Lamist. And some of thos reads seem like they’re just tossed in there.

@Mastina
Why are your scumreads what they are?

I have such a hard time with Norwee.

These two posts so close together show he's really thinking about the game I think or at least Mastina. But he hasn't omgussed yet, which worries me.

[Pickaxe Pete]

How can we solve this game?

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand forums mafia. The posts are extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of scum hunting most of the scumtells will go over a typical players head. There's also Nero Cain's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Mafia Scum wiki, for instance. The veteran players understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of this game, to realise that it's not just entertaining- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike mafia truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humor in Battle Mage's ever-present catchphrase "Claim daycop," which itself is a cryptic reference to Mafia scum culture. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as these genius posts unfold themselves on their computer screens. What fools.. how I pity them.

And yes, by the way, i DO have a Mafia Scum tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid

I found this post mmm.. charming?

idk how I feel about SB. Like, I think their stuff now seems town but IDK if that's just caught scum that's turning on the charm after they got wagoned or he's town and telling the truth about that he was doing some gambit early on.

Gamma is scum so we can wagon that.

Is that for me?? Nod told me I was a GOLIATH [something, something, something] and I said I won't be outing the rest of it for <reasons>. Role description though was in the mod's opening post inside the PT. In other words, I wasn't told my alignment or my abilities in my role PM. Just the name and a link to the PT.

In effect it sounds like another hydra with two known heads. I don't see the benefit to town to yeeting any of them. I'm kinda with Blossom on this, it prolly does more harm than good.

[Pickaxe Pete]

Ok i'll explain.
All of my aggressive pushes did nothing good for town back in Large 229 which be both played in. Outed PR's, made myself look scummy, etc.
I figured it was about time i changed my playstyle a notch and become a bit more open-minded.

You're not lying about 229, although you weren't the only one. We could have won that one in a walk with a little cooperation I think.

Fair enough. I'll town bin you for now.

I’ll start by defining mean:

You're probably Town, mathematically speaking.

Cheeky post now.

[Pickaxe Pete]

You're focusing on "what started me looking at you" and ignoring everything else. Your hop om Gamma's wagon was ugly and the disclaimer suggests you know they're flipping green. mastina agreeing that was a scumtell but arguing we should eliminate Gamma instead. Your reaction to having one single vote on you (E-11) is so bizarre I can't see it coming from Town!you. Your post count is ridiculously high with little real content.

This looks a lot like confbias. If you take red!Gamma out of the equation, do you still end up with Norwee scum?

There's a lack of a certain scumtell that should have been there if he was scum indeed.

I missed this. Interesting.

[Pickaxe Pete]

Gamma prob town

Gamma’s town

You too. What's the town!Gamma argument?

[Pickaxe Pete]

Taylor OBVIOUSLY knew she would be called out on her fake claim, so I am not sure that would earn her any scum points. She was just being playful IMHO.

actually i was hoping the masonry would confirm so we could stop speculating about this nonsense and get back to playing mafia. whatever. i mean there was a small element of playfulness, but mostly it was helpfulness. especially since i do townread you A50 and want to work with you as we have in the past.

We can work together without making unnecessary gambits (please don't misunderstand me. I LOVE to gambit, and I do it all the time. I just thought this one would have been risky if -say- our third came in and CC'd you. Imagine what scum would do to you, me and sb in that case)

Awkward. I don't see scum coming in and fake claiming here.

[Pickaxe Pete]

also why does the gamma wagon, as weak as it seems to be, have such longevity? this gamestate doesnt make sense to me if gamma is scum. here i go defending gamma. i guess i must be scum too. oops.

You are, and so am I.. and a couple more (I don't remember all of them, but I seem to remember DS expressing the same notion). And -by extension- my Mason buddies are also Scum (although I've been trying to convince sb to trust my TR on Gamma). Who else? I guess that's about it. 6-8 scums all on the same team.

seems like a pretty impressive scumteam. i think that theory about 10 scum might not be that far off.

[Pickaxe Pete]

To be fair, i would gladly switch to Ban Hydras if it became apparent interest in eliminating Gamma was dying.

VOTE: Ban Hydras
I've already expressed why I want to vote here, and I think now is the best time to do it.

oof. big oof. hmm. youre still probably town, but i dont like the vote or the timing.

And you. Why do you have town!gamma?

[Pickaxe Pete]

Because the wagon went too fast and there were no counterwagons

I'm assuming that's your reasoning and not Taylor's.

[Pickaxe Pete]

Alrighty then.

[Pickaxe Pete]

I don't feel bad about working today.

[Pickaxe Pete]

overall, this has been an immensely enjoyable day 1.

Is this an agreed post?

[Pickaxe Pete]

NorwegianboyEE, Menalque, samantha and BH were all counterwagons to Gamma. Is there anyone I am forgetting?

How far up did Morning Mage make it?

[Pickaxe Pete]

You say Gamma flipped non town aligned 3P. What makes you say 3P and not scum?

He is assuming it based on the COLOUR of the text.

Are you talking about the literal brownish green color of the letters or something else?

[Pickaxe Pete]

What makes you think 3P is not likely when we have a 3P scumteam???? None of us are masons. We use masons because it is an easy turn of phrase that has now because confusing. We are 3P with town’s wincon. Titus I can’t speak for but I highly doubt they are masons

is this a slip or am i crazy?

It's just superbowl being superbowl. They can call themselves a 3p scumteam but if they have a town wincon, they're town.

[Pickaxe Pete]

I'd like to work with them, but I need them to share their wincon
peddit: so Titus, when recruiting A50, you just gained A50. A50 has 2 partners and didn't neighborize?

To clarify we (GGHI) are not neighborizers, we are unpowered besides our PT. It’s titus’ group that neighborized 1 of our members

I spent the whole of D1 trying to WIFOM Scum about this very detail. Today, in the new hood, I spoke NOTHING about us having additional abilities. WHY would you out that we have no additional abilities here?? WHY?

More wifom.

[Pickaxe Pete]

Town Blocking Plus, Morning Mage, Taylor, and A50 can join in, but the fancy snacks aren’t for you. You just get the regular snacks.

No. I get to CHOOSE my own meal, and so does superbowl, mate.

@Chemist

Yes. That's what I do for all my VCAs. I copy VCs and replace subs. Why?

you said you wanted to question me about sheeping plusjoy onto BH but you haven't done anything to that end

that and you using the wrong pronouns clued me in on that so i figured i should bring it up for clarification

I apologize for using he pronouns.

I didn't have my notes in front of me. But since you're here, why did you sheep Plusjoy onto BH?

@Plusjoyed,

There are two masonries. Each has 3. Almost50 + superbowl + ?. Then there's Titus, Nero, and mastina.
I neighborized A50.

I was townreading mastina and nero yesterday, so this would throw titus town also.

[Pickaxe Pete]

Wait, titus, does your masonry have a name too?

[Pickaxe Pete]

@Pickaxe: You can dine in hell before any of them 3 of you so wish

Spoiler:

[Pickaxe Pete]

So two 3P factions w/ a neighborizer and a scum team of X people. Just disregard the 3P factions I guess and hunt elsewhere. Mass claim doesn't sound like a bad idea tbh.

[Pickaxe Pete]

Town is town by any other name.

Not for the purposes of wincons...?

I would doubt that the town wincon is "all anti-town factions are dead and at least one non-anti-town player is alive."

hunting 3p is a pro-scum move

Are you talking this game or in general?

[Pickaxe Pete]

im counting a50 and SB. Even if they do win with the town I feel like anything that's not TOWN is scum. There are those that say that a 3p that can win with town aren't scum but I don't really buy into that philosophy.

my thoughts on 3p always being scum despite being able to win with town are consistent throughout my time on site.

imagine thinking that a claimed 3p is town.

superbowl and a50 but they win with the town and ONLY the town, they promise.

Queue your claim:

I feel like you and april and whomever pushing us has a good chance of being scum b/c hunting 3p is a pro-scum move.

mod notes

• Christøpher has requested replacement
• 1615: good

Almost50 a 3P leaves
Nero leaves

Mastina and Morning Mage enter the wagon.

This leaves Morning Mage and Pickaxe Pete as only potential army on the wagon.

On the Ban all hydras wagon added Nero Sam and GE
Nero is 3P who floated between the wagons
GE was voting the biggest wagon other than himself.

So we’re left with Plus DS Christopher (who I think is Chemist) and Samantha (scully I think)

Rule of three says there’s likely a scum somewhere in this list.

However again none of these were really pushing the wagons iirc (please correct me if I am wrong)
Based on tone this didn’t seem like a scum driven wagon either.

So this game seems to be driven by NT players.

This jives with my 2-8 out of no where scum bus just it was NT.

There's no such thing as a rule of three outside of what titus would call moon logic.

[Pickaxe Pete]

there's only a very very small difference in those statements. Trying to lynch 3p over the threat of the town (in this case the kings army) is a known scum tell.)

Getting a claimed 3P out of the way earlier is ideal in order to avoid interference/uncertainty later.

When you check your email in the middle of the night and see you're on the chopping block you get a defensive vote in asap. What's bad about that?

[Pickaxe Pete]

How are you so sure that group was not scum though?

There's a lot of genuine solving from Mastina/Nero/Titus in the hood and i would be really impressed if that was scum theatre. They are genuinely attempting to fullfill town's wincon so i trust them based on that.

I suppose I should read before posting but isn't it possible that the hoods aren't completely aligned? What I mean is of of A50's hood or Mastina's (or both) hood may have an anti-hood player? It seems to me that A50's question about the night kill and shelly's answer (I haven't gotten further than that) lend themselves to looking at a vig plus a scum-aligned traitor-type player. Putting that player in one of the hoods seems kind of sexy and wifomy.

?

[Pickaxe Pete]

DDL vs Pete is just a case of who seems to be playing. Ddl only memorable post for me is about the BTS army. Pete I remember a post here or there.

Jjh is SK or scum because of play and ascetic claim. I disagree with Mastina’s setup spec again. Shocking I know. I lean SK simply because town Vig is too much power and being able to track JJH to a kill would then be either such a boon/bust to be ridiculous.

If I had a three way nuke I wouldn’t cry about them dying. I just don’t think wagoning any of them gives anything since their entire play is lurker hell.

Not posting every 8 hours is lurking. Figured that out end of Day 1.

You just said a whole lot of jjh is scummy for reasons but didn't say anything about ddl or me. Why should ddl or I be wagoned for lurking if we're town and jjh is scummy?

[Pickaxe Pete]

today, Almost50 will choose the execution singlehandedly.

You all hear this?? You all had better start sucking up to me. BOW to your KING



Kneel, I say!

The pickaxe kingdom is yours.

[Pickaxe Pete]

This game should be a win if we just don't paranoia eliminate any of the hood members and just go for the scummy outsiders.

[c i t a t i o n n e e d e d]

I would definitely like it a lot better if the hood members told us what their real wincon was.

queue superbowl blowup, but yes, this would be helpful

[Pickaxe Pete]

I just wanna see A50 hit scum.
I don't mind if I lose to the third party.

I kinda do.

[Pickaxe Pete]

math should absolutely completely definitely not be executed today
y'all should add math to your neighborhood

I was townreading math's slot before vecna bailed, but math has posted some funny stuff, or maybe it's just hyperposting. I don't know that I trust him and whether they should either.

I don't know yet what I think about you for suggesting it either.

[Pickaxe Pete]

a "reaction" test on someone with a pseudo guilty that is/was going to be lynched before that is a lame play, what are you a 2013 join date?

You're still town. Probably. Depressing town.

Why am I'm supposed to set the two mason groups plus norway to the side as confTown again? I think Nero, Mastina, Superbowl, A50 and Norway are all probably town, but I'm supposed to confTown Titus only because she's in this mason group even though she either refuses to read me or can't read me correctly?

[Pickaxe Pete]

then maybe you should help us find scum outside of those 3? but you refuse to do that (and it's why I think you are scum.)

This is sensible. I don't think it's A50 per se. But at least someone is thinking it.

[Pickaxe Pete]

Also, A50 hood is trustworthy too.

4518 is shady in a weird way

im gonna be deathtunnelling MM next after I've been more settled on bell
MM/Chemist/DDL/pete/{S_S, TGP} is my current solve

I'm mech conftown though 2 players can definitely confirm i'm town, and for some reason another 3/4 players are also doing so.

So good luck with that!

why is mm mech conftown i did not read some of this thread

im not sure if we'd been outted yet (so my bad if not, i got over-excited ) but it doesn't matter in the context of the game now. We're part of the mason group, so A50 knows we are town.

Lovely, just lovely.

Of all the cards not to spill you had to do this one.

Like we are so fucked.

haha in my defence, i wasnt exactly in favour of us being outted to the other mason group. shit happens dude - it was pretty fucking obvious from Titus' sudden U-turn on our slot that we were the other mason.

This slipped right by me. I'm not necessarily town reading MM either but for the mason group.

[Pickaxe Pete]

This slipped right by me. I'm not necessarily town reading MM either but for the mason group.

[Pickaxe Pete]

I am baffled by why DDl is getting SRed when he's being the most protown I've ever seen him be

I re-read Gamma ISO. Like a TGP flip.

Down for either one. Tgp would be good. But Gamma defending DDL like that is usually a bad look unless this is twilight. Lemme go look. If this is post twilight consider me wanting to lunch Pete.

VCA. Why me = fry me.

Your reads.

I have yet to see you read me correctly. Or your VCA actually work. You've been after me since Day 1, but your mantra is that VCA doesn't work until at least Day 3. You're once again deciding to yeet me then making up a reason to do it after the fact. Read this: I'm town. You're scum.

[Pickaxe Pete]

I don't have any reason to trust you or not to trust you other than the claims and as you point out, the numbers (where did the exact number of 5 come from though). I don't have any reason to believe that the army isn't scum either. I just don't understand why members of your "town" 3P are acting scummy.

[Pickaxe Pete]

And I find it amazing that there wasn't a discussion about how the three of us were picked. Names out of a hat? But no one in the mason groups or the 7 was picked? And how is the list presented? Alphabetical order?

[Pickaxe Pete]

No, you're not. You're just a sober player. By that I mean you're driven.

[Pickaxe Pete]

we were told the exact # of the scum in our pt by the mod

Okay.

[Pickaxe Pete]

it's clearly someone's ability

I'm going to be the idiot here and say that it doesn't seem clear to me.

[Pickaxe Pete]

So if I'm not acting scummy just ignore everyone else. problem solved?

[Pickaxe Pete]

i think pete is quite a convergent player i.e. similar as town and scum

You have no experience with scumpete.

[Pickaxe Pete]

like in terms of posting neither are immediately obvtown but reading through 229 it feels like Pete is doing a bit more spiritually? and here they're just coasting around?

What does this mean? The doing stuff spiritually thing?

There are apparently five scum exactly. Who do you swap Gamma in for?

[Pickaxe Pete]

Of the funky little trio I'm in, I'm a little confused by Pete suggesting nothing indicates the army is scum when Gamma literally claimed scum

What are you talking about? I never suggested any such thing?

[Pickaxe Pete]

Alright. I have a request to slow the rate of posting so I can data dive.

@Pete, Do you prefer a DDL or jjh lynch today? Outside of the pool, who is your lynch?

It was ddl until this latest stunt by jjh. I dunno what motivates him to lie about that.

TGP probably.

I'm gone for the next 12 hours.

[Pickaxe Pete]

I'll bbl tonight.

I feel condescended to with all of this talk of inclusion and exclusion.

[Pickaxe Pete]

That's all I got right now. Bad day.

[Pickaxe Pete]

He's contradicting himself a lot. Normally, I wouldn't find this scummy/easy fruit but for a variety of reasons I can't quite articulate this might be one of those exceptions to the rule.

Sounds like a bad rule.

Contradiction implies lack of a plan. You're right that I didn't intend to focus on reads but that doesn't mean I won't get some on the side, and the best kinds of reads are the ones that you don't force anyway.

Your rule should be that contradiction is towny, because the person cares more about doing what they feel like doing in the moment than about projecting a consistent story.

Haha no. This imho is all kinds of bad.

Some contradiction is Townie some is scummy. It really depends on the situation.

I think that's what he was getting at. Hyper contradictions though leans scum.

[Pickaxe Pete]

Wait. Is there a moratorium on posting or something?

Thank you for this btw

This thread just IMPLODED again

Is this just masons are scum all over again

I think we're beyond that? At least I left that a long while ago. 90-10.

[Pickaxe Pete]

there was alot of ms vs. math and then me and later ppl vs. S_S


a50 says to claim or die

I’m not opposed to SS but eh... it’s not my first choice and we should exe in that pool

Which pool? The public pool or A50's sub pool?

[Pickaxe Pete]

If I have a vote this day I would vote mastina

I frankly don't think donatellos army is as big of a threat as the "conf town 3p crew"

nice work claiming scum dude

Just want ddl's posts in my iso.

[Pickaxe Pete]

TGP has been scummy all round. imo, scum!them don't have their heart in it and it's rather obvious.

i love playing as scum. this is really bad attempted meta based off of two games, the scumgame out of the two being one where i died n1.

Forced distancing?

Shelly +TGP?

If A50 plans to shoot in the trio he said imho shoot Shelly for the way she claimed and this post by TGP.

TGP is scummy for other reasons.

[Pickaxe Pete]

I guess people are afraid of posting for fear of being shot for saying something stupid.

[Pickaxe Pete]

bang

[Pickaxe Pete]

eh if you elim me it shrinks down the poe which is good. I'm moving DS up into my solve. It's DS/TGP/S_S/DDL/Pete.

This solve is majorly PoE, works fine together as well
TGP has been scummy all round. imo, scum!them don't have their heart in it and it's rather obvious.
S_S is refusing to scumhunt basically. mechtalk all you want but mech itself doesn't just Solve The Game
DDL is a scumbucket 100% and scum lurking is their strategy
Pete is not doing anything protown at all, their posts are fluff
DS is there because of poe

at least 3 scum are in my solve imo. I will flip VT but I am ready to die.

So is this your solve or is this your poe? You keep listing 5 people, but I have it on Nero's authority that there are 5 scum.

[Pickaxe Pete]

A50, you're free to execute me if it'll sooth your raging ego, but just recognize that Titus is apparently the one person on this entire damn site who can actually read me consistently. That was the case pre-LOA, and that's apparently the case post.

So maybe you should just screw off and actually hunt for scum instead of just OMGUSing because I don't believe that your faction is town aligned.

I don't even know what this means. This reads like it should come from TGP.

[Pickaxe Pete]

there were 5 scum to start so there are only 4 scum left

Thus my puzzlement.

[Pickaxe Pete]

I've no idea who you're talking about, but contradictions are NAI. It can just easily mean that someone isn't in control of their thoughts and is lost as it can be that they're scum grasping at straws.

What do you mean not in control of their thoughts? If you're implying that they don't have their head screwed on straight you might want to keep it to yourself.

not voting (4): jjh927, Something_Smart, Pickaxe Pete, Chemist1422

with 20 alive, it takes 11 to Execute someones Ass.

Not VCA. I don't do VCA. But 5 vanity wagons and 4 not voting. Only 1 of the 7 council was off wagon. Plus conftown. Titus said something about April's wagon being full town. If that was the case, there would have been a counter wagon. There wasn't a counter. There's scum on the April yeet.

There's 4 alive now.

And she keeps listing 5 as her solve so I don't understand.

[Pickaxe Pete]

I'm not arguing vca with titus. That's my untrained eye. I don't see what prevents scum from forming a counter wagon.

[Pickaxe Pete]

VCA isn't very accurate, lets move on and stop playing like its 2012

Let's try NKA. What year was that again?

[Pickaxe Pete]

I'm not arguing vca with titus. That's my untrained eye. I don't see what prevents scum from forming a counter wagon.

I just think VCA is useless for that.

I mean why would scum counter wagon town? I guess I play scum differently.

I could see a case like Civ but I don’t remember how many Other wagons there were in that game. Just that it surprised me it was all town.

I'm not going to get into a theory discussion with you. It's pointless in-game.

[Pickaxe Pete]

How y'all doin?

[Pickaxe Pete]

How you doin math?

[Pickaxe Pete]

Norway, how's it going? How's them fjords?

[Pickaxe Pete]

Affordable?

[Pickaxe Pete]

Affjordable?

[Pickaxe Pete]

Scumboi
- Pickaxe Pete

I'm town.

[Pickaxe Pete]

I don't understand this wagon.

[Pickaxe Pete]

Mail-in ballots. Did you get yours?

[Pickaxe Pete]

Not sure who to vote for here.

[Pickaxe Pete]

Sarcasm tags (but I did vote).

Yeah don't think you have to worry there.

[Pickaxe Pete]

Not sure who to vote for here.

Yourself ofc.

Town doesn't do that, bud.

[Pickaxe Pete]

...That's actually the first time I've ever self voted.
I feel gross.

UNVOTE:

You're welcome

[Pickaxe Pete]

I'll see you at the lodge.

[Pickaxe Pete]

Thinking at least Shelly is likely scum.

Pat Benatar made it over there eh.

I mean of those 3, it's clearly TGP first.

OK, so I guess I'm left with Taylor to FoS. (At least I'll be listening to good music. See that Nero??)

im excited for this A50. hit me with your best shot

you might regret that. he's a real tough cookie, with a long history...

[Pickaxe Pete]

Pat Benatar made it over there eh.

[Pickaxe Pete]

at least one of the following players is in King Doris Donatello's Army:
shellyc
Tayl0r Swift
TheGoldenParadox

ummmmmmmm

tgp probscum
pete still scum

Umm.. No. I'm town.

[Pickaxe Pete]

Looks to me in this bum rush to nowhere a couple of people are trying to signal things but I'm not sure what.

You’re literally mod confirmed scum.

I'm town. It's the hoods you should be looking at. Both of them are scumclaiming so much one of them has to be town.

[Pickaxe Pete]

I personally think Pete is town.

This is all a conspiracy.

This guy gets it.

[Pickaxe Pete]

Don't mind me. I'm just the boy next door.

Spoiler:

[Pickaxe Pete]

I'm hearing the chatter
You've raised quite a clatter
The big question is
Do they know if it matters?

Spoiler:

[Pickaxe Pete]

My fellow townies need to step up their game.

[Pickaxe Pete]

See you in the funny papers!

VOTE: Pickaxe Pete

[Pickaxe Pete]

Fun game! Definitely overwhelming in a number of ways. Thanks schadd_!

It was a big puzzle that needed to be figured out. Unfortunately for us the wrong sides pieced it together more quickly.
