Open 797: Bus Service [Game Over]

[shellyc]

Claimed that they OMGUS as town only, never as mafia which is a lie. Then to back up their logic they are forced to say that they don't SR me for OMGUS in the most awkward way possible and then lied saying they never admitted to OMGUSing

yeah i omgus as scum but I didn't say that, I said it wasn't scum!AI

mini all your points are basically indicating that im am really bad at playing town

[shellyc]

Town shouldn't be thinking fun things that happen as scum. I'm thinking that's a possible perspective slip from scum!shelly.

i think of fun things that happen as scum because i hate playing town

[shellyc]

johnny TR'd me before and now sheeps JV's read opportunistically, johnny just went up another notch on my scumdar
im still SRing Professor Mafia rather hard

Professor Mafia when you come back i want you to give me a full readslist

[JohnnyFarrar]

I find it hard to believe that both heads of the hydra lulvoted the exact same person.

no it was same head

Which head?

[MiniVirgo]

I find it hard to believe that both heads of the hydra lulvoted the exact same person.

no it was same head

Why would the same head vote the same person twice, I'll have a look back at the context.

[MiniVirgo]

Goddamn, why...

Spoiler:

no one scum read the mod my dear derp
~redados

no one scum read the mod my dear derp
~redados

so are u townreading the mod?

har har har
VOTE: derp

Obligatory since shelly is there and they're always wolf

gamblers = confirmed bad
OMGUS! VOTE: MiniVirgo

Should we be hypo claiming in this setup considering there’s a cop a silent bus driver

imo, im not good at mech but I think town bus driver should *avoid* driving nulls (cop invest nulls) and drive townreads with scumreads to outWIFOM the nightkill
I think hypoclaiming is a good idea

-shelly

There's no way to tell whether or not shelly's claim is legit or not. Even the post time is way different either way. Maybe the vote on me is telling of it being redados but why would they doublevote like that.

- JV

[yessiree]

MV, my guy, I know you think you have some spicy read but I really dont see anything convincing from your case

imo you're over reading too much into the "perspective slips", trying to be townread is NAI, and being a little self-conscious is mostly NAI, UNLESS it's excessive. ofc this is coming from me without any prior exp /w shelly

all i see is a player who's actively trying to bounce ideas between her TRs

and besides, all this back-and-forth between you and shelly is dominating the pace of the game which is allowing potential scum to coast and fly under the radar

i'd ask you to consider the scenario that you vs shelly is TvT and consider the gamestate from that perspective

[MiniVirgo]

and besides, all this back-and-forth between you and shelly is dominating the pace of the game which is allowing potential scum to coast and fly under the radar

This is extremely hilarious to me considering, but again I can't say anything about it.

@Mod

, just a random question that popped into my head. Does scum have day-talk?

pedit: Mini get into a habit of doing "- Mini" lmfao or it's gonna trip everyone out.

Factional communication:

Each night

, you may talk with your partners

[Almost50]

minivirgo is scum-casing on bait and won't let go of a perceived easy elimination, zzz

shellyc is NOT bait.

has professor mafia dipped after yessiree's pressure on them

that's quite weird

Not being obv!Town is one thing and being E-bait is totally another. The definition of E-bait is someone easy to push and eliminate, and THAT does not apply to you. Even when you are globally SR'd it is not that easy to eliminate you still.

With 13 players alive, it takes 7 players to eliminate someone.

Day 1 Deadline is paused until all people who expressed an interest in replacing in have confirmed their involvement in the game.
Because wiyvern did not respond to their prod, I will have to force-replace them. Every other slot is currently filled.
Not_Mafia has also been prodded.

[Almost50]

Bingle replaces arachnidsGrip

Oh, my! If you are Scum, I forfeit the game to thee. The mechanics of the game do not give the town a realistic chance to overcome your cunning mechanical play.

hey I have a question: is scumreading the mod funny? personally, I do not think so.
~redados

Only if it's done right. You gotta be classy about it.

Also, VOTE: piisirrational - don't like the IIoA approach he's taking this game with all of the votecounts.

-shelly

why is this so hard

Nice sign from shelly here. I like the stylistic choice of signing the post right at the start. Ensures no one will miss it.

I think Yessiree, Elephant is town.

Shelly's overall tone is vastly different than scum!them, although I'm not unvoting

Very agreeing with this. shelly's scumgame is abrasive, blunt, and aggressive. She's overconfident on reasoning and pushes. This a much more reasonable and thinky shelly. I like this shelly.

the reason why i hydra'd with redados was to focus on laser-pointing the scum while letting redados obvtown
im the worst ever at obvtowning while redados is very good at it

-shelly

@shelly:

Why wasn't redados feeling this game?

89 was -shelly

VOTE: Johnny
-shelly

I don't know what 89 was, but I'm liking the new trends that shelly is pushing with signing, in this scenario opting to sign her post

twice

.

I'm not hypoclaiming, keep that

MU

shit out of here

Isn't it usually "Moo"?

I think shelly and I are both super paranoid of the other, shelly's really good at pocketing people so beware lol

imo, one of the highlights of playing as scum is getting to eventually townblock with people

I do genuinely think you as my strongest TR atm, scum!JV coasts around a whole lot more, while you're engaging yessiree, you're trying to engage N_M

Good use of the winking emoji here. It complements the rest of the post, and shows the user is being cheeky about townbloccing as scum, since they should not belong in a townbloc, as scum.

Oops, my shitpost:content ratio is going off the rails. GET IT TOGETHER, Bus Service, you need more content or they'll probably policy you.

Big Elephant is sounding increasingly scummy, I think the TR on MiniVirgo is a deep pocket, and they're just generally agreeing with stuff and throwing out forced reads instead of solving.

I think mech talk is a bad way to TR people fwiw

VOTE: Big Elephant

I get why people think the old Professor here looks scummy, but I like this take. town!shelly can come across that way, and I agree with what she says here on the matter:

-shelly

ugh signing posts as hydra is officially my least favourite thing
not really sure what to think of prof. mafia for that vote on me as it's *something* that's game furthering, but at least it's quite a hot take given the townblock between me/JV/yessiree emerging

-shelly

Side note: once again at it with the double signs. Love it.

I think mech talk is a bad way to TR people fwiw

and this is true, mech talk is the easiest thing in the world to do as scum

derp smells so far.

Hello students, I'm your Professor of Mafia.

Step 1: Random Voting Stage: VOTE: Sando

In my opinion, not much to be gained from any of this. All the voting mod nonsense is anti-town.

I haven't ever played this setup (it's a mutantdevle one though so probably has some deeper gimmick)
+1 to hypoclaiming though.

I hate your gimmick.

Don't listen to this heathen, Prof. I love your gimmick and I'm shading you with the moon if I don't see more of it.

I don't understand any of the mech/hypothetical claiming talk so I'm skipping over it.

I stopped at the top of page 7.
VOTE: derp

It's easy to eliminate town!shelly. She's usually eliminated early when town.

Hectic alt detected.

It probably is. Can we get some overall reads from you, Hectic?

Has this set up really never been played before?

I just joined because I mistakenly thought that all the players were bus drivers. But, no, just has to be one driver with a bunch of backups, so, not nearly as chaotic as I had hoped. Stupid reading gets in my way once again.

When did you realize this?
