Squid Game! Game Over!

[DArby]

Second (which is the best)

[DArby]

Aw I’m third and pedit didn’t catch that. Well second is still the best so

VOTE: Morning

[DArby]

Also I totally see what mod is doing. One person will be left out.

[DArby]

There’s already been differences between this game and the show. Intentionally making yourself the odd person out is not a risk I think you should be taking lightly. However I already have my team so I’m curious if the outcome nevertheless.

[DArby]

dwlee is scum

nope you're scum

Glad to see another townie on the team then.

[DArby]

If they do not know more than us, what are they trying to accomplish in this phase exactly? I would have thought "not be left out" but yeah

The optimal strategy is to split up one to a team minimum. That way they can have a hand at sabotaging all teams in the scum pt. Split up 2 scum to a team with stronger players.

[DArby]

If you don’t know what’s going to happen in the future it’s best to hedge your bets that way the chances of complete failure is as close to 0 as possible.

[DArby]

Wondering if scum would want to be captains. That's a lot of attention, but at the same time that's a lot of free power to control the game state.

Again, hedging bets. There could realistically be a way that captains are put at a disadvantage over everyone else. I’d say we should expect at minimum one and at most two scum captains.

So far I trust MT because I think it is in scums best interest to also slow down the team picking process as well to help sway people to different teams.

[DArby]

Actually wait. I didn’t think about scum possibly having pre game PT. My trust in MT has gone down as a result.

[DArby]

Okay so whats the reasoning behind MT for captain again for those of us that are slower than the rest of the class

MT was second poster. Second is the best.

[DArby]

I’d say i’d never kill you tweetie but i was rather humored when my faction in fact killed you within a recent game...

i was your TRAITOR you mONSTER

didn't i do like the opposite of that? I guess im slowing now

Actually wait. I didn’t think about scum possibly having pre game PT. My trust in MT has gone down as a result.

i dont know what ur talking about but you seem uninformed

Yes. You did do the opposite of that. Which is why I trusted you at first. You did the opposite of what I thought scum would do.

I then forgot scum typically has a pre-game access to the PT. Scum could have probably planned how they wanted to potentially work together or split apart since there it’s common knowledge there are challenges.

I’m trying to quantify a gut reading but basically I trusted you and then I didn’t.

[DArby]

Liking Q, D’Arby, Koba for now. Tweetie sounds town due to WIM.

Ydrasse could be scum?

Omg you’re the first person to put the apostrophe.

Lock-town.

[DArby]

Btw i think theres a small chance theres no scum and pooky is messing with us on that front.
No I will not ellaborate

Adding to this wasn’t there originally supposed to be 5 scum instead of 6?

I very much could have gone crazy but in the pm he said six in bold.

[DArby]

Also I totally see what mod is doing. One person will be left out.

In squid game, the one person left out actually got the lucky draw because they could skip an death game.
So maybe it’s a good thing??!

See, like I get that but.

What if that’s what he’s expecting us to expect?

o:

[DArby]

There’s no special roles. Scum can’t even nk.

[DArby]

Btw this is an 21 player game and we already have 22 pages just trying to finish thr first team.

I think game exhaustion is going to be an way bigger future threat than subpar team choices. Which is why i’m on the side of doing this as fast as possible so we can move on with the game.

Also this. We don’t even know what the teams are for. Surely there can be a compromise between speedrun and running the clock?

[DArby]

Like if this is taking more from show inspiration this could just be a one off team thing. We don’t know and I think trying to make it a systematic thing is both time consuming and really dull.

[DArby]

Loki
D’Arby
Koba
MT
Norwee
tictac

I think all these are town. Anyone disagree?

Yes

Wait. Yes you disagree or yes you think that list is good?

[DArby]

I promise you you didn’t miss much

[DArby]

Hey so wacky reminder kids:

MT has 2 hours left to decide.

[DArby]

can the gamma v norra stuff stop. Its not entertaining nor productive

^^^

[DArby]

What happens if MT isn’t back in 2 hours? Does the team dissolve?

[DArby]

I don’t remember her using the heal tag to finalize anyone. As far as I’m aware no one is officially on her team.

[DArby]

If you are unable to form four teams of five within the deadline allotted, I will ask the Mafia to group the remaining un-teamed players.

i think scum pick it if im reading this right, or is this just for picking all teams

I don’t think so. It said 4 teams of 5 not 1 team of 5 players.

[DArby]

Looks like the people's faith in MT was misplaced.

o.o

This made me chuckle.

[DArby]

Wonderful.

I..... didn't think i'd get this far

Well it's been fun

EXECUTE YDRASSE, DWLEE99, DArby

Are you talking about this? Because you need to use heal

[DArby]

I’m good with tictac joining.

[DArby]

we're going to unlock whole new worlds of fun u could never even imagine

hope i don't regret saying that in the future

Probably will.

:)

[DArby]

Hey Noraa, do you think that this conversation can continue when we’re voting or really need to have it?

[DArby]

VOTE: Loki

I’ll probably join one of the other teams but I’m really curious what this will net. I would also like to decide with some help from Koba, Tweetie and D’Arby.

Decide on joining another team?

[DArby]

I meant that if I were team captain, I’d want the three of you to advise me on who to pick but the main reason I self-nominated was mainly to feel out other players’ reactions to me, if that makes sense.

But I’m also fine with voting tictac and mama as well.

Give me around an hour or three and I’ll think on a potential team.

[DArby]

To be clear I’m in full support of a Loki team. I absolutely want to see that happen.

[DArby]

Me/norwee/fb/spam/ + one of gamma/Loki/std is a team I'm fine with.

Take Gamma. I think Loki and StD should be on a team together for now.

[DArby]

Me/norwee/fb/spam/ + one of gamma/Loki/std is a team I'm fine with.

Take Gamma. I think Loki and StD should be on a team together for now.

I don't mind tictac/math/Loki/std +1

Funny. I was going to throw in Math as well. I light town read tictac and am not opposed to him as a captain still.

[DArby]

In an objective sense I’m not opposed to Gamma. I have a stronger town feeling for StD but Gamma would probably fit better in the personality dynamic.

[DArby]

I also feel Mama would rather be in a team with Whem and I don’t see why she should be robbed of that.

[DArby]

I also feel Mama would rather be in a team with Whem and I don’t see why she should be robbed of that.

Doesn’t Wheme want to be on team Fire?

I know I’d really get along well with Gamma, STD and mama, so that’s also a factor. But that would be one too many then.

If it’s a personality thing I can’t be of much help. However, assuming FB’s team goes through, I feel StD serves best for your team. I refuse to try and read Ru’s alignment and am unsure of Gamma’s. With StD I’d feel confident that we’d have two teams that are mostly town save max 2 scum.

My heart does go out to Q, though. :/

What is your read on him?

Looking at his ISO I scumread him. A lot of his posts feels like they’re trying to sound consistent but contradict themselves without real explanation. Specifically going back and forth with wanting to be captain or not and his attitude towards Loft. It’s as if he’s trying to subtly come off as being productive while prioritizing what the group wants, which I don’t think is pro town.

There’s a good chunk that also feels like busy work but more for the sake of it and not for town’s benefit.

That’s my gut read anyway.

[DArby]

I’m talking about Q if that’s not clear.

[DArby]

Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

Basically a way to protect intelectual property in America.

[DArby]

Why does the vote count equal 20? Who are we missing?

[DArby]

It’s S_S. That’s who we’re missing.

[DArby]

Honestly I’d say take StD and let Mama Ru be the fourth captain. But that’s just me.

[DArby]

Honestly I’d say take StD and let Mama Ru be the fourth captain. But that’s just me.

But I need one more. I already healed myself, STD, tictac and SS, so ’m one short.

I skimmed over that. White text on a yellow background and all.

Go for Gamma then. I don’t scum read them I just had a weaker read then StD.

[DArby]

For the life of me I don’t see how anyone can have a read on Ru. I’m fine having her as the captain of the quarantine/last team just to be safe.

[DArby]

You can only take one at this point. I think you should just go with the most direct option.

[DArby]

Hm. So I think this is now a battle between Loft and Noraa.

@Mama who do you plan on kicking out of the game?

[DArby]

Algebra, Calculus, geometry, exception, null, complete, incomplete, multiplication

I read that to the tune of the fairly odd parents theme song.

[DArby]

Again, I think it should be between Noraa and Loft, leaning harder towards Loft leaving.

[DArby]

At this point Almost should go ahead and vote Ru so we can move on. I think we’ve gotten everything we can during this phase.

[DArby]

So, waiting for mod intervention is probably the right thing to do

Please don’t that just waste more time. I’d rather push for WOTC then have to wait for something that should be done by now.

[DArby]

not my best work but hey you asked for it

Seong Gi-Hun was an average guy
That no one understands
His gambling bookies
Always giving him demands
(Money, twerp!)

The doom and gloom
In the subway room
Is broken instantly
By a man in a suit, see
Playing a game of ddakji
Cuz he needs money

He is the squid game guy
Squid game guy

Blue vs. red
Can you flip it?

Squid game
Squid game guy

Red light, green light
food fight, death at night

tug of war, umbrella, secret inspector, glass floor
VIPs, giant piggy, marble game, odds and eve(n)

squid game
squid game guy
it flips your ddakji when you are Seong Gi-
hun in a squid game!

The only saving grace this phase sans Ru.

[DArby]

Hm. So I think this is now a battle between Loft and Noraa.

@Mama who do you plan on kicking out of the game?

lmfao. Darby you dont get a say when your entire iso is just fluff

I dunno why you’re shading me when I’m summarizing the feel of the room.

[DArby]

I dunno why you’re shading me when I’m summarizing the feel of the room.

we dont need summaries. we need content

And yet I managed to do both by showing the two most likely candidates and trying to direct that conversation to the people who actually have a say.

Then again, there is nothing much more for me to add because I expect us to eliminate a team next and it’s this fourth team that I will push. I find a lot of this discussion at this phase mostly pointless.

[DArby]

@Almost50

I’m on my knees here, please vote.

[DArby]

God bless you, A50.

May you find a crisp $5 bill within the next 24 hours.

[DArby]

Spoiler:

D’Arby I just have to ask, did you get your username from this guy?

Indirectly, yes. I got my name from a one-off enemy in an anime/manga where the creator is obsessed with music. Every character's name is based on something music-related.

There is a Terence T. D'Arby (the younger brother) who is a later enemy and is directly named after the singer. However, my character is Daniel J. D'Arby (the older brother) which I believe is an (incredibly) loose reimagination of the singer's birth name, Sananda. There's no real information as he's an incredibly minor character, especially compared to his little brother, but he's still my favorite enemy stand user.

[DArby]

With one post, Mama Ru can start the game for realsies.

[DArby]

Shhhh.

[DArby]

You spooked her. :(

[DArby]

So like when do we play mafia?

We aren't. We're playing squid game that's changed just enough to be played on the forum. I think you're going to be disappointed if you're expecting something more traditional. You could play this challenge like S_S suggested, so there's that.

[DArby]

im really sick now.

v/la till friday

Feel better.

I'd like to think this is a threat.

[DArby]

Oh damn I missed it by 6 minutes. Oh well.

[DArby]

I am going to get up and get a snack. Inb4 the next parachute drops in the 2 minutes I'm gone.

[DArby]

loki has one. id like darby to have one as well but thats not up to me. mama ru too.

I simply am not getting one lol. I have neither the energy nor the desire to try and beat people by seconds.

[DArby]

if hectic isn't trolling, he's scum for that read.

Is this omgus?

[DArby]

Only person not privy to the plan was darby by not being around

Not true. I had no opinion on it and didn't think adding to it would serve any benifit.

[DArby]

Yeah lol.

Just skimmed through everything.

I'm certain this time Norwee is scum. I don't think Math is town. I feel if I'm going to read Norra I'll need to look at meta, which I can't do tonight. If I end up dying before that happens, Norra is a soft scum read out of the principle of how hard she's playing.

[DArby]

Yeah lol.

Why are you certain on Norwee? and yeah my gut doesn’t like Math but I don’t think Noraa hardbusses like this if Math is scum. She’ll bus alright but actually drive a lim on a buddy, kind’ve doubt it.

Again I don't know Norra's meta. I'd have to read it to make an informed conclusion. I can't tonight, but if I can do so before the end of the 48 hours I'll give you something more concrete.

I've vaguely have seen Norwee's meta in past games and I've reached the same conclusion Koba has for the same reason. I'm not too sure on the rest of the clown gang being mostly scum because they had a reason to join together and they're acting out that reason -- being fucking meme-y. I don't think that's terribly AI. I feel my strongest townread on the team is FB, but it's a gut read more than anything.

[DArby]

Looks like Norwe lost the bet to Dwlee.

[DArby]

you should really blame dwlee

he was the only person on team tryhard actually tryharding for the chutes

and he decided you were the least worthy. :3

I was the one that was deemed least worth.
