Open 685: Diffusion of Power [Game Over]

[RadiantCowbells]

well unvote my slot

[RadiantCowbells]

you can go to bed I'm not doing this tonight. I had a pre-in to replace when you replaced in and haven't actually read

[RadiantCowbells]

ily gbt can I bus you

[RadiantCowbells]

do you think I ever scumread gbt

[RadiantCowbells]

that's not what I meant

VOTE: Transcend

if you're going to play this game then I'll play it

[RadiantCowbells]

no he's pushing on me

[RadiantCowbells]

gbt what are your reads

[RadiantCowbells]

man I'm tilting myself hard

[RadiantCowbells]

Jord's reasoning on Truegent sucks but I'm pretty sure they're town

[RadiantCowbells]

silmarils/ingeel probably

[RadiantCowbells]

Rhazh has like 6 posts but I'm already pretty sure that he's scum too

[RadiantCowbells]

I did townread that post ftr but the rest of his posting is bad and that single post doesn't make me totally reevaluate.

[RadiantCowbells]

VOTE: Rhazh

[RadiantCowbells]

VOTE: Varanus

this intrigues me

[RadiantCowbells]

silmarils/ingeel probably

WutFace

how fuckin dare u m8 i'll fuk ur shit up m8 i sware on me mum i fuk ur whole ancesta every1 in ur family

[RadiantCowbells]

w/e I identify as Gigabyte's doublevote

VOTE: Rhazh

[RadiantCowbells]

my read is that if you want to lynch them I will vote them with you

[RadiantCowbells]

Giga I think you are an extremely strong town player in terms of reads but you have a tendency to derail yourself off of good wagons and join shit ones because other people pressure you to.

If you're trying to get stuff from me because you're uncertain of my alignment then fine but it can wait. If you're trying to get stuff from me because you lack confidence in your reads then that just encourages me to not do anything.

[RadiantCowbells]

If you're worried about my alignment then cop me or wait till later. Goldoa will not move.

[RadiantCowbells]

Idk I don't know what to do in terms of talking to you because I have no idea how you're going to react to my play since you have never had to sort me as town before.

My main/only goal right now is to not be a good nightkill.

[RadiantCowbells]

Unless I get shot early no one is going to end this game thinking that I was anything less than a major help to town. That doesn't mean I have to go hard early.

[RadiantCowbells]

can we talk about something besides me

[RadiantCowbells]

From now on if you ask me for a read I'm going to attempt to roll a charisma check and then attempt to hit on you based on the roll instead.

[RadiantCowbells]

Original Roll String: 1d20

1 20-Sided Dice: (6) = 6

-1

[RadiantCowbells]

I'm sure you see a lot of things with that hair, Varanus.

[RadiantCowbells]

I'm giving myself a +10 mod for this one since it's not an opposed check.

Original Roll String: 1d20 (STATIC)

1 20-Sided Dice: (12) = 12

+9

[RadiantCowbells]

I know that your name is a lie because a gigabyte isn't enough storage to hold all the awesome things that make you the you that I know and love. <3

[RadiantCowbells]

Einar doesn't have a sense of humor though

[RadiantCowbells]

just because it's funny doesn't mean it's not true

[RadiantCowbells]

GETTING FUCKING HYPED

[RadiantCowbells]

whos scumreading jord btw

you're not allowed to ask these questions.

do you scumread jord

[RadiantCowbells]

idk I'm just trying to enable the dictatorship

[RadiantCowbells]

RC town tbh

NO STFU

YOU TAKE THAT BACK

[RadiantCowbells]

Giga I would much rather lynch Varanus than Rhazhbash or pretty much anyone in the game at that point. can we go there

[RadiantCowbells]

VOTE: Varanus

You did but I'm feeling a lot less confident in Rhazh and a lot more confident in this so I want to make sure this is a thing.
Credit's all yours

[RadiantCowbells]

Credit goes to no one besides our General Secretary gigabyteTroubadour.

[RadiantCowbells]

[RadiantCowbells]

offend Their Greatness the General Secretary gigabyteTroubadour at your peril, Jordarrian.

[RadiantCowbells]

my goal is to establish aforementiond cult of personality though

[RadiantCowbells]

I don't have a planned endgame here lol. I joined then planned to tryhard then I noticed you were town and decided I would let you run the show for a few days.

[RadiantCowbells]

Sheep makes me sound like a passive animal rather than the glorious second in command in the great communist nation of Troubadourtopia

[RadiantCowbells]

Giga I'm not sure if it was the time that I hard pocketed you as Prince Lyon.
Maybe it was the time we were discussing dungeons and dragons characters on skypes and my cursor lingered a short while longer in the text field than it needed to.
There's a feeling that I get as I look to the west and those little segments of days that make up my life shrink and the oldest fade out of thought and time.
The days grow colder and the red army marches towards its goal in the Rhineland as the stars fly by overhead, soldiers marching in tune to the celestial shadow flittering across the heavens.
If I knew then what I know now then I would have said what my heart has been desperate to say to you ever since the moment I realized.

If you're going to advocate for me getting copped then if there's a D1 doc I want them to be on me

[RadiantCowbells]

I am not deliberately being hard to read I'm just trying to stay alive dudette.

[RadiantCowbells]

If you promise to follow my vote I'm willing to be more active but I'd probably end up voting where I'm voting anyway?

[RadiantCowbells]

Okay so you want me to follow you then?

[RadiantCowbells]

I just feel like at this point I just want to see who dies and what night results come back.


SO RC - Why do you want to be checked N1?

( Just to clarify, you guys said there's no guarantee that any particular night has anything, right? )

I explicitly do not want to be checked N1 because there's a strong chance that I get shot N1.

If I'm alive to like N3 and the gamestate is such that I'm not like super obviously going to get nightkilled then I am okay with it.

[RadiantCowbells]

well thanks for letting me know who to shoot

[RadiantCowbells]

shitpost titus is best titus

[RadiantCowbells]

UNVOTE:
VOTE: Varanus

[RadiantCowbells]

Am I allowed to scumread Jord?

[RadiantCowbells]

I wouldn't dare

[RadiantCowbells]

Original Roll String: 1d20

1 20-Sided Dice: (8) = 8

-1

[RadiantCowbells]

Gigabyte your avatar makes me think of lucky charms.

[RadiantCowbells]

i still think Varanus is scum but I'm willing to follow you if you want Ulti

[RadiantCowbells]

yes milord

VOTE: Ulti

[RadiantCowbells]

m'lady has fedora tipping overtones

[RadiantCowbells]

Maybe Gigabyte is just strong willed and I'm easily pocketed by her

[RadiantCowbells]

idk I think Varanus is scum but I don't have the energy to yell and fight until he dies so I'm happy doing what I'm doing I guess

[RadiantCowbells]

*hides*

[RadiantCowbells]

Sorry am I being a bad follower?

[RadiantCowbells]

I will scumread you on the condition that you get pocketed by GBT as well

[RadiantCowbells]

VOTE: Varanus

[RadiantCowbells]

I'll make a Varanus case I think

[RadiantCowbells]

VOTE: Transcend

yeah transcend is obvscum

[RadiantCowbells]

Varanus you shouldn't fucking selfhammer.

No one besides Transcend is getting lynched tomorrow.

[RadiantCowbells]

Like don't even cop the dude because if I hear an inno result I am going to assume you are a scumpartner

If I die lynch him

[RadiantCowbells]

i am too drunk to deal with current situation

gonna just put a 'hi' in here and leave

[RadiantCowbells]

i said trans was scum because i thought vsar flops tonw

[RadiantCowbells]

Hey RC, let's chat when you sober up.

Hi I am currently reviewing applications for RCFriends and am pleased to inform you that you have been selected for RCFriend status. Congratulations!

[RadiantCowbells]

I would have to ask Giga what my reads are.

Giga what are my reads?

I assure you there was no exaggerating of how drunk I was ftr.

[RadiantCowbells]

I am sheeping Giga until further notice and since she got us a scum lynch I am quite happy to continue =]

[RadiantCowbells]

Town: GBT, Titus, Ulti
Leantown: Nose
Meh: Truegent
Scummy: Jordarrian
Vscummy: Simarils

Rest I want to review before giving anything more concrete on

[RadiantCowbells]

lol I've thought you were scum since I replaced in.

[RadiantCowbells]

You're welcome I guess

[RadiantCowbells]

You gave mixed messages! Ask again.

[RadiantCowbells]

That said:

Silmaril I have gutread as scummy from the get go

Titus I townread your play and on top of that scum quickhammered rather than let you vote them so that semiconfirms you as town anyway
GBT is obvtown by play
Ulti is innoed and I won't worry about them without a Transcend flip

Nose gutreads as town and they had one post I really liked
Truegent's meh. People are crying frame kill but I think the kill was obviously made because they were obviously an early game cop.

Jordarrian is getting townread but I think that his playstyle is just his playstyle and I scumread his content.

[RadiantCowbells]

I just feel like at this point I just want to see who dies and what night results come back.


SO RC - Why do you want to be checked N1?

( Just to clarify, you guys said there's no guarantee that any particular night has anything, right? )

this

[RadiantCowbells]

I would be a lot more likely to care about your fake guilty if there hadn't already been 2 D1 cop claims.

If your goal is anything besides getting yelled at then try again

[RadiantCowbells]

In fact yeah you want to be like your sibling then I'll just lynch you. VOTE: Titus

[RadiantCowbells]

Yeah so I guess it's hard to get an accurate read on Titus when she's posting gifs instead of actually posting and it's kind of obvious in hindsight that she was trolling to interfere with my ability to read her.

Titus dies today.

[RadiantCowbells]

I don't expect to win this 1v1 given the situation but it's obvious that Titus was trolling D1 to stay under my radar and she probably fakeclaimed a guilty since she figured I'd lynch her anyway

[RadiantCowbells]

why were you townreading her initially?

like if i were told "there's one scum in rc/titus" i would have picked titus earlier but titus is the one with a guilty and i dont see the utility in just.... disposing herself like this?

Do you think that she was ever going to survive D2 when I actually became invested enough to do stuff regarding her

[RadiantCowbells]

probably not no but she has to rely on town

So why would she not make this play if she doesn't have an alternative?

More to the point why does scum!RC not shoot Titus when she's expressed interest in copping me N1 regardless of reads?

[RadiantCowbells]

Jord do you feel like actually talking about Titus scumclaiming

[RadiantCowbells]

RC/Titus is definitely TvS

GEE DO YOU FUCKING THINK?

[RadiantCowbells]

And FTR Titus if you haven't retracted in your next post I am going to ignore any retractions while you're getting lynched

[RadiantCowbells]

lol 'in the bussing zone' meanwhile it was actually me who first called them out as scum and dragged GBT over onto it

[RadiantCowbells]

Giga I would much rather lynch Varanus than Rhazhbash or pretty much anyone in the game at that point. can we go there

VOTE: Varanus

this intrigues me

remember these?

[RadiantCowbells]

I mean I'm obvtown and I lynched scum yesterday so presumably I would have been docced and I was an unsafe kill

[RadiantCowbells]

I would always lynch scum!Titus. Like I dropped the ball on reading her up to this point because I made assumptions based on other people's behaviour but she is never surviving a game vs me

[RadiantCowbells]

I am so great.

Clearly I am pretty fucking amazing if you're willing to go full hara kiri to lynch one person

[RadiantCowbells]

VOTE: RadiantCowbells


I'm extremely confident in this

I'm extremely confident that you're an awful player

[RadiantCowbells]

following the scum that fakeclaimed one you mean. grats on being easily manipulated by the least cunning manipulator on site, I am sure your mother is very proud of you

[RadiantCowbells]

If you were a half decent scum player you wouldn't need to fakeclaim guilties on people who are guaranteed to lynch you otherwise

[RadiantCowbells]

Man I really don't want to be mean here but I don't see any other viable recourses.

[RadiantCowbells]

lol fuck no I have little to no expectation of winning with this town playing like it is after I hard carried them D1 but I'm not giving you a free mislynch

[RadiantCowbells]

Wow, so I don't see too much downside in killing RC right? I mean if RC flips town then we would know what to do next...Am I missing something??

GEE YOU LOSE THE PERSON WHO ACTUALLY CAUGHT AND LYNCHED SCUM IN THE FIRST PLACE.

[RadiantCowbells]

You weren't even on the goddamn wagon.

Sure I'm fine with Titus dying eventually but I'd vastly rather lynch scum without dying myself

[RadiantCowbells]

I am day 3 cop and lynching me before I get a chance to get my cop off is absolutely awful play

[RadiantCowbells]

Oh you were mb. I mixed up the wagons.

Doesn't change the fact that I was the one who kept dragging the lynch back there.

[RadiantCowbells]

You lynch Titus and then when she flips scum you fucking doc me

[RadiantCowbells]

Sorry I'm not buying it. But hey if we get you wrong we know where to go next!

VOTE: RadiantCowbells

that's transparent scumposting ftr

[RadiantCowbells]

no fucking shit given that both scum are on it

[RadiantCowbells]

Because I have fucking never failed to misread her once.

And yes cry that I was meh on her this game but taht was more due to outside circumstances. Once she consistently posted she would die.

[RadiantCowbells]

well you fucking should

note that Jord and GBT are around but not responding

[RadiantCowbells]

'what it means about me'

[RadiantCowbells]

Ok then vote Titus

[RadiantCowbells]

So you lynch town instead? brilliant plan

[RadiantCowbells]

that argument could be used to justify lynching fucking anyone

[RadiantCowbells]

and yeah I get the situation is slightly different but that doesn't change the fact that you don't fucking lynch obvtown on the word of someone we tried to lynch yesterday

[RadiantCowbells]

I deathtunneled Varanus and on top of that I'm obvtown by play.

[RadiantCowbells]

first off I'm town second off I sincerely, sincerely doubt that he's whiteknighting so he's town

[RadiantCowbells]

FTR we lynch Titus today we get me a guilty on day 3 and the game is just over. done.

[RadiantCowbells]

Well the upside would be having an extra townsperson and a proven one too. Good night!

yes this is what happens if you lynch Titus so do it

[RadiantCowbells]

nah this game was fucking aids

[RadiantCowbells]

like jesus fucking christ am I done playing on this account.

one person replaces in and declares intent to check me and another obviously softs that they're going to check me.

like seriously fucking obvtown by play in the general case but because of my username I'm eating two cop checks in the same fucking night

Yes, basically appeal to fear of missing out.

You got caught bussing RC.

NO I DID NOT GET CAUGHT DOING FUCKING SHIT

YOU NEVER ONCE IN YOUR LIFE TOOK A MOMENT TO LEARN HOW TO READ ME SO YOU JUST AUTOMATICALLY FUCKING COP ME AND CALL IT CAUGHT BUSSING?
If I was town I got shot last night 100% and you made the shittiest possible check that you possibly could and I correctly pinned you as likely to be cop but I couldn't fucking shoot you
Take your win but don't act like you did jack shit besides get lucky with a policy check that is never happening again. I'm not inning into games on this account anymore.
fuck off.

[RadiantCowbells]

VOTE: RC

[RadiantCowbells]

have fun winning one in a billion games against me as scum by throwing every single game that I'm fucking town

[RadiantCowbells]

Gie me scum thread access. I want to add more detail about it.

[RadiantCowbells]

Here's the reasoning

[3:29:04 PM] Tyler Reichert: The chances of neither of us getting copped was abysmal
[3:29:13 PM] Tyler Reichert: in particular the chances of me not getting copped before endgame with 4 1-shot cops
[3:29:18 PM] Tyler Reichert: is so close to zero that it's not worth trying
[3:29:27 PM] Tyler Reichert: To avoid that there were 2 solutions
[3:29:32 PM] Tyler Reichert: either Titus innos me which was my favourite plan
[3:29:37 PM] Tyler Reichert: or I hardbus Titus early on
[3:29:41 PM] Tyler Reichert: the issue with hardbussing Titus early on
[3:29:44 PM] Tyler Reichert: is that gets rid of a potential cop kill
[3:29:51 PM] Tyler Reichert: AND like, I'm RC I'm kinda known for bussing
[3:29:56 PM] Tyler Reichert: That doesn't necessarily get me out of the woods
[3:30:03 PM] Tyler Reichert: There's a non-0 chance of someone risking being autolynched for checking me
[3:30:08 PM] Tyler Reichert: because of paranoia simply because username
[3:30:14 PM] Tyler Reichert: So since I'm probably not making it to endgame
[3:30:21 PM] Tyler Reichert: and Titus didn't want to inno me
[3:30:29 PM] Tyler Reichert: And coincidentally Titus softed D1 cop unplanned
[3:30:36 PM] Tyler Reichert: which is where the inno/guilty thing came up
[3:30:53 PM] Tyler Reichert: so the plan made a lot of sense
[3:30:57 PM] Tyler Reichert: and for the record I got cold feet about it before end of night
[3:31:02 PM] Tyler Reichert: and was like nah let's just do thing snormally
[3:31:05 PM] Tyler Reichert: and I'll try to lynch and kill cops
[3:31:15 PM] Tyler Reichert: so we made a bunch of codes for suggesting different strategies
[3:31:27 PM] Tyler Reichert: and I told Titus to open up as if she could plausibly have a guilty just in case it would become important
[3:31:34 PM] Tyler Reichert: and we killed one N1 cop
[3:31:38 PM] Tyler Reichert: Transcend claimed asnother cop
[3:31:42 PM] Tyler Reichert: leaving only 2 cop investigations in play
[3:31:49 PM] Tyler Reichert: I wasn't really paying attention at this point
[3:32:18 PM] Tyler Reichert: but Titus went for it and 'Thanks for the help' was the code for I'm guiltying you in my next post
[3:32:37 PM] Tyler Reichert: so I was like yeah 2 cops down go for it
[3:32:43 PM] Tyler Reichert: Also I don't think anyone realized
[3:32:50 PM] Tyler Reichert: but I started calling Titus town immediately
[3:33:06 PM] Tyler Reichert: to thoroughly discredit myself so that I could fight back convincingly without actually being able to get her lynched instead
[3:33:26 PM] Tyler Reichert: and yeah it worked really well
[3:33:30 PM] Tyler Reichert: in context it fed her a boatload of towncred
[3:33:57 PM] Tyler Reichert: because no one really pieced together why I would have wanted to call her town there
[3:34:04 PM] Tyler Reichert: I mean it's what I would have done if she was town
[3:34:11 PM] Tyler Reichert: but no one picked up on why I'd do that in SvS
[3:34:25 PM] Tyler Reichert: because she basically had to win
[3:34:31 PM] Tyler Reichert: and by calling her obvtown before that
[3:34:42 PM] Tyler Reichert: and bringing up the 'Var quickhammered self before Titus could' made sure it got brought up
[3:34:45 PM] Tyler Reichert: because it basically townfirmed her
[3:36:17 PM] Tyler Reichert: I mean it was awkward in a way that only discredited me
[3:36:18 PM] Tyler Reichert: which was the point
[3:37:44 PM] Tyler Reichert: it actually is Titus. and yeah why I said she had to win was because there's really no motivation for her to do that as scum and if I lived long enough people would have picked up on it
[3:38:34 PM] Tyler Reichert: In a lot of ways on the surface it would have been better if I guiltied her but when you look further down the line
[3:38:41 PM] Tyler Reichert: in actuality this was the correct play
[3:38:44 PM] Tyler Reichert: if she wasn't confident innoing me

[RadiantCowbells]

I will be nominating Titus for a scummy because I thought she was fantastic and I encourage others to do the same =]

[RadiantCowbells]

Ftr my original suggestion was that she inno me which I still think would have been a fantastic play but she wasn't a fan so this was the play

[RadiantCowbells]

Sorry I didn't get to play more with you guys but blame Titus she's evil :[
