bemused superiority

i'm bemused by your use of bemused here.

i'm bemused by your bemusement of his statement of bemusement..

iow, why are you bemused?

my bemusement is effected by scripten's bemusement over the definition of the word bemuse.

i think bemused superiority is another way to say trolly :p

bemuse=confuse

you are keeping out the amusement factor

[Mantisdreamz]

of the definition..

there is no amusement in bemusement.

[Nikanor]

i mean i

guess

you could argue that the definition has changed due to every college freshman with half a pencil misusing the word to mean "slightly amused," but i'm not really into that kind of thing.

[Mantisdreamz]

i don't mind how you play, i was explaining a town-read.

-

At least each head of the hydra can't be individual scum.

Yeah, I like the idea of executing Nikanor. What do you think of that idea, Mantisdreamz?

The first thing I notice is that Nikanor was pushing for your execution.

uh-huh, but this isn't an opinion of nik's play.

thing is though... and this is in general. his push for execution was pretty much like a vote. in normal terms of mafia... ppl don't generally get freaked out over someone placing a vote.

I'm gonna clarify. Nik's posting is reading like, "Come on, I'm scumhunting super hard here. Why won't you all listen to me? Sheep me, you silly kids." Doesn't sit well with me.

Also, are we just going to banter until deadline? I mean, I guess I can deal with that, but we might as well hand scum the game at that point.

it's wrong, and literally the only place you'll find that as a definition.
bemuse is a Greek word with the root being "muse".
amuse is a French word with the root being "amuser".
they sound similar but that's due to convergence and not divergence (a la evolution).

[Mantisdreamz]

i still want that biscuit though

Now, let's not get too demanding. I said cookie and a cookie you'll get.

Spoiler: Maxous' cookie

Code: Select all

EtablecookiescookiesCREATE TABLE cookies (creation_utc INTEGER NOT NULL UNIQUE PRIMARY KEY,host_key TEXT NOT NULL,name TEXT NOT NULL,value TEXT NOT NULL,path TEXT NOT NULL,expires_utc INTEGER NOT NULL,secure INTEGER NOT NULL,httponly INTEGER NOT NULL,last_access_utc INTEGER NOT NULL, has_expires INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 1, persistent INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 1,priority INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 1, encrypted_value BLOB DEFAULT '')A]indexdomaincookiesCREATE INDEX domain ON cookies(host_key)-A\00indexsqlite_autoindex_cookies_1cookies';\00indexsqlite_autoindex_meta_1metaf/tablemetametaCREATE TABLE meta(key LONGVARCHAR NOT NULL UNIQUE PRIMARY KEY, value LONGVARCHAR)

^trolll where is the cookie

SoS:

What I saw from the beginning of the game were Nikanor and Mantisdreamz setting a precedent to execute the only confirmed townie I know. Both are displaying a sort of VI-style play that rubs me the wrong way. If it was just a case of one buddying the other, I don't understand why they are both so happily in on it.

but.... who was the confirmed townie that you saw that i was willing to execute? i haven't been willing to execute any..... it's way too soon

can you explain the VI style

[Nikanor]

i think that scripten might just be trying to annoy the experienced players into submission. :d

Town wouldn't have a soft spot. Light interaction with Nika.

post 25

Nothing special here. Trying to figure out game mechanics.

post 30

Defending Nika. Valid point. Also says kingmaker and king are the same. Dont get it.

Confusing post.

Nothing telling.

Not a whole lot to go off of. Doesn't really matter today anyway, King wont kill himself.

where do you get this impression?

i know sometimes when im town, i'll re iterate what i *really* think they are trying to say. but which one of nik's posts of his does that for you?

.....................................
how on earth could you get that impression

Iso yourself from a vanilla town POV. From where I'm coming from, your play is either what I said or 90% of everything you've said has been banter. The only one being more useless to game state is Quinoa.

What impression are you trying to give?

but.... who was the confirmed townie that you saw that i was willing to execute? i haven't been willing to execute any..... it's way too soon

Keep in mind that I said from my point of view. I'm conftown to myself, after all. When I made my first few posts, you and Nik seemed to be setting up a way to justify a lynch on a townie. He pushes you hard for a quick execute and you softly discredit me from the sidelines. Having never played Kingmaker mafia before, I wasn't sure on the meta. Your posts ping less scummy than Nik's, if that makes your feel better.

GrayFoxxx:

I wouldn't say that being King really nullifies play. To me, it's more like having an eternal quickhammer on every player. Come next day, your scummy actions can bite you in the rear.

can you explain the VI style

Trolling and banter is how I see it. Other players might see it differently.

[Mantisdreamz]

ugh, you're literally killing me rn mantis

[Mantisdreamz]

script, when did i say i was willing to execute you?

[Scripten]

Quoting this again because what the hell happened to my post? Sorry Grayfoxxxxx:

Mantisdreamz

script, when did i say i was willing to execute you?

I don't think I said this? What I meant was that the way you and Nik were bantering back and forth felt like a sort of good cop, bad cop setup. He tunnels and you softly discredit to justify an execution later on.

That said, more recent posting discredits that a bit. We'll see.

[Mantisdreamz]

ugh, you're literally killing me rn mantis

it's right there in the web definition. can anyone else weigh on this? not that it's part of the game ..but still

[Maxous]

Quinoa is more nutritious than a biscuit that is just mainly carbs.

hrm, a bit of research shows there actually might be a best of both worlds

The first thing I notice is that Nikanor was pushing for your execution.

uh-huh, but this isn't an opinion of nik's play.

Your point?

that you're effectively writing fluff.

Maxous what makes Mantis less likeable than Fox and Nikanor?

idk how to answer this really? i didn't feel mantis was as town as nik.

only skimmed through grayfox's iso things on my read-through but town point for sheer effort.
