New York 194: Guns N' Roses Mafia! (Day 8)

[SnarkySnowman]

VOTE: Aristo

And I'm pretty sure my vote is staying firmly planted here.

[Firebringer]

KAAG is town. Fire and Drixx are both annoying. Aristo is null leaning scum.
I want to look back at the interactions between the Fire slot and the Drixx slot.

Fire is the epitome of fun.
You have twice denied me, so you have been thrown out of the kingdom!

What makes me lean to the scum side of things?

VOTE: Aristo

And I'm pretty sure my vote is staying firmly planted here.

Once again, ya got a reason?
It's nice to see you doing things this game, but doing this constitutes doing the wrong things.
Why is this vote so firm?

[Firebringer]

Why don't you want DGB in our little bloc Aristo?

[Aristophanes]

Why don't you want DGB in our little bloc Aristo?

I am undecided on whether they should be in or not.
Honestly, I don't have a read on them yet.
Lemme do a quick ISO and let you know. I'm pretty sure I can read her, seeing as I had her pegged pretty quickly in Paint Mafia.

(I'm gonna read 44-50 first as I'm still not caught up on D2, nevermind D1)

[Aristophanes]

That's a bit jumbled I think, considering I replaced Kop but we're both on there.

Also, 21 out of 18 possible votes are accounted for.

JS so you know to clean it up a bit

[Egg]

Unvote, Vote Drixx

Drunk Egg realizes no one wants to lynch Creature's slot anymore and Drixx is more likely scum than Aris and Guy and the Frag lynch doesn't even feel that viable anymore. Why can't I be a dayvig or something? Whatever this is good enough

[iraonavp]

Bleh.

VOTE: Killthestory

[Drixx]

I'll trade myself for Killthestory. Let's go. 1on1.

I don't ever intentionally appeal to emotion. It's just not the way I play.

There really shouldn't be anything confusing about the idiot ball analogy. I'll give a literary example, from Harry Potter (because it's so widely read it should click).

Voldemort is powerful and knows all sorts of magic. He's cunning and trusts nobody with the secret of his immortality. He uses the killing curse to try and kill an infant HP, and it rebounds and kills him instead.

Now... given all the ways in which the character of Voldemort is described as being intelligent and cunning and careful to hide his weaknesses, why would he ever try to use the same curse to kill HP that resulted in his near death the first time around? Why not some other curse? The only explanation is that the author gave him an idiot ball. The character was shown to act as less potent and intelligent than the writer established him to be.

In the same way; there are people in this game who are might more intelligent and cunning than they're behaving. Since I know them to be such, the same idea comes into play. Some external reason is making them play suboptimally. For the sake of having something to call it that isn't just randomly insulting people, I use the idiot ball metaphor.

Unvote, Vote Drixx

Drunk Egg realizes no one wants to lynch Creature's slot anymore and Drixx is more likely scum than Aris and Guy and the Frag lynch doesn't even feel that viable anymore. Why can't I be a dayvig or something? Whatever this is good enough

You're smarter than this Egg. So that means you're either being stubborn, or you're scum.

[KickAssAndGiggle]

VOTE: Drixx

More fluff, little contribution to the game, hard to find town motivation in any post. Promised his notes 5 days ago, seen nothing. Fool me once, shame on you...fool me twice etc.

I see the cases on Fragger and Aristo but they're just not as compelling to me as this one is now.

[Slandaar]

Drixx do you have reads?

[Slandaar]

Ozgin...

So I'm down to 314 in this ISO already and all I see is a lot of light shitposting, but posts like 110-112 and 108 before this point are sarcastic and sassy but they're still accurate. I'm pretty content with this ISO so far.

OK.

why are so defensive? clearly that was just a reaction test and joke post that i was making?

however now youre responding to me with memes? dont you realize how defensive that is?

great job you figured it out i'm José the taco vendor

how great job admitting your scum, what are you abilities? what do your tacos do specifically scum?

This is an accurate post? how exactly was it accurate?

happiness is a scumtell

Same as above. How is this accurate? You actually think Happiness is a scumtell?

429 is a naked vote with no reasoning, not even loosely discernible from the context surrounding the posts. This is different than some of his previous votes, that either came with a quote (implying some reason) or at least made sense with the context surrounding the vote (usually the previous 2-5 posts or so). People were talking about SirCakez a little before this vote on him, but opinions were tossed and nothing was really brought up against him. This just strikes me as weird.

Don't care for this paragraph basically says nothing.

714 is a kinda dickish post. I mean, this was in response to what I assume is Ira's 713 (the post immediately before kts's), but ira was actually making a decent point about being active, even as a replacement, rather than just trying to back out of putting in effort and blaming the fact that you have a lot to catch up on. Was this supposed to be a defense of Drixx, then? Because that's who iraon's 713 was aimed at. This is just strangely abrasive, especially against a valid point against Drixx.

The whole sequence not just responding to the one post I would assume.

786 - No, stop that. Even when we're going for a shitty last-minute lynch on an apathetic player, quick hammering is bad, there's no town motivation in rushing a lynch, regardless of how stupid you think it is.

Nothing here.

829 is blatantly useless. Indirect ad hominem attacks benefit nobody.

Annoying not scummy is worth a note.

890 made me deja vu back to 786, I actually fucking refreshed my ISO page on this stupid and bad post.

Same as previous.

This post made me think back to when a certain player said responding to posts with memes was defensive, and furthermore scummy. Who said that again? Oh yeah.

Although in this post where he reuses the image, it actually kinda makes sense.

Different scenarios. But - you didn't seem to want to say that you find this contradictory?

At least he can admit to playing like a shitlord, too.

Eh Nothing here.

All in all, despite a few discrepancies, I think KTS is actually a relatively townie player this game. A bit of an asshole, yeah, but it kinda reminds me of House or ABR's styles of being an ass, but being a correct ass.

What is he correct about?

Really have no idea how your conclusion ended up as 'relatively townie' with the comments you made it kind of makes the comments pointless?

[Slandaar]

You're smarter than this Egg. So that means you're either being stubborn, or you're scum.

The idiot ball thing makes sense Drixx but you think you know Egg well enough to say this?

Ummm... you haven't played with me in a really long time Egg.

I've moved beyond feeling like I have to be perfectly honest and moral and such in mafia. It's a game that by its very nature encourages people to lie, regardless of alignment.

Your meta on me is out of date. Check me out in Mafiaception for recent town, and I'll be glad to link you to my most recent couple scum wins.

I'm not the Drixx you remember from like a year ago.

I think not. You think he knows you well enough that he shouldn't scumread you? your above post suggests otherwise.
