Newbie 1827: Baseball Game Over

[Thestatusquo]

It's almost like I wrote that paragraph while doing my catchup read from being v/la and hadn't yet gotten to the ACTUAL SCUM SLIP yet.

[Thestatusquo]

Like UC made a post that assumed the alignment of a player as being town. Only scum players know the alignments of other players. Newer scum players are sometimes prone to not being able to hide the fact that they have information the town doesn't have and do exactly what UC just did, attack someone for "MISLYNCHING A TOWNIE" when they have no way of knowing that it is either a townie or a mislynch if they are scum.

UC should die today, its just that simple. I still don't like your posts this game, but I think its very unlikely that I vote for anyone else until the scumslip poster is lynched.

*unless they are scum. EBWODP

Also, from my reread I think I should address the "IC not posting a strategy thing" posts.

It has been a very long time since I have ICd a newbie game. We're talking many years. Is it now customary for ICs to post intro posts in their first posts in a game? That certainly was not the case when I last ICd and if it is I was unaware of it. I was not told that was an expectation by the mod or by the list mod. If you as a newbie have theory questions or questions about how the game works, please feel free to direct them my way. The way I see it, my job is to play a good clean game of mafia, with the promise that I will never lie about game theory or out of game questions about mafia. I will lie only as it relates to my alignment.

Here's an example of me in an IC role about 6 years ago.

you must be getting old and senile, that game was 11 years ago

In all serious notes though this post does clear up a lot.

I clearly linked the wrong game. I think thats a game from when I was a newbie lmao. BUT you'll note the IC in that game does not post a strategy post either. I'll dig up the game I was actually trying to link at some point.

[Thestatusquo]

UC has made over 10 posts in games since I called him out for the scum slip. Clearly none of them have been in this game.

UC, do you also think theres nothing to post about this time or what? Because I still need you to explain how you know wilky is town with such a certainty as to claim that someone is pushing a mislynch.

IC NOTE

Everyone, you may note that this post touches upon ongoing games. This is something that is usually not only frowned upon, but explicitly prohibited by MS rules. The only exception is what I am doing right now, which is referencing a users activity in other games relatively without touching on anything substantive about those games.

Read this if you'd like to have a better understanding of what is ok:

what???? i never did that!!!1

tbh. i havn't been posting here because im in a few other games which are more heated than this particular one.....not going to say any more about that....

I never scum slipped!?!

I said it is common for scum to guide miss lynch....and it seemed luca was doing that. I said that wilky could have been innocent being tageted by Luca!!!!

[Thestatusquo]

How can you say that luca is guiding a mislynch if you do not know the alignment of the person he is driving a lynch on?

[Thestatusquo]

OOG FOR A SECOND:

The very reason I posted a link to the DO NOT TALK ABOUT ONGOING GAMES thing in my post was I was worried someone might talk about ongoing games in response. UC, that last post you just made is talking about ongoing games. Talking about what is going on in your other games constitutes a substantive statement, which is not allowed.

[gameplay506]

and reply to me as well please uc

[UC Voyager]

does that count....ima read for future knowing

[Thestatusquo]

and reply to me as well please uc

So just going to pretend I didn't say something to you or what?

[gameplay506]

I will when I feel like it

[UC Voyager]

tbh

....I dont even know what i think about this game...i mean......I havn't really been following it...

I might need to do that later

[Thestatusquo]

I will when I feel like it

So like, outside of whether you're scum or town, do you really have to be this unpleasant to talk to?

[gameplay506]

Hi, im the lazy and unfriendly SE

I mean, I DID tell you at the beginning of the game

[Thestatusquo]

Anyway. Lets kill UC. He's pretty much confirmed scum as far as I am concerned.

[gameplay506]

Um no
He might be scum and I need him to reply to me
But even if I go into retarded, braindead mode, I still can't call this a slip

[Thestatusquo]

Making a post that assumes someone is town for no reason is not a slip? Lolk.

[gameplay506]

Its fishy, not a slip. Lolk?

[Thestatusquo]

Its literally the definition of a slip. He slipped and made a post that shows he has alignment information.

[Thestatusquo]

When UC flips scum, mark my words GP is his partner.

[UC Voyager]

Shea.....if your townie, try not to get lynched tomorrow

[UC Voyager]

because i will not flip scum. i will flip townie.....then people will think your scum....i have seen it happen a lot on ToS

[gameplay506]

Shea get ur head out of ur ass ty

[gameplay506]

@Uc why tf are you talking like you are already lynched?
