Newbie 1827: Baseball Game Over

[Apple Jack]

Nah. That post says you are giving me a pass due to an ongoing game. Out your alt please.

[Thestatusquo]

That is correct. I will decline to talk about why because, once again, we are prohibited from talking about ongoing games.

I will repeat again, I am not in any games with you besides this one, and nothing I have said implies anything otherwise.

I am capable of reading games just like anyone else on this site.

It just seems to be DH and shea going back and fourth which isn't helpful for Town.

No one has CCed shea yet.

DH should know we don't lynch shea if there is no CC.

[Thestatusquo]

It's actually more likely to be quick, given the way he has played (deliberately trying to not make waves, excessive buddying, going after only the low hanging fruit, as well as that truly awful post earlier today where he basically said "I'm pretty happy to lynch anyone who isn't me.)

I don't remember doing any of those things actually.

you wouldn't.

Why is that funny?

With 7 alive it takes 4 to lynch!

1. Because you don’t know me well enough to make that statement. The only day I back off role claims is day 1. The rest of the days I let the play determine if a person is legit or not.

2. lack of a a cc doesn’t mean he’s telling the truth.

Discussion of Ongoing Mafia Games is Not Allowed

Recently we have had a spate of people discussing ongoing games. Though this has led to a record number of ongoing game bans, there may be a perception that there is some wiggle room when it comes to discussing ongoing games. This post is to tell you that there is not.

It does not matter if you are dead.
It does not matter if you don't think it will affect a game.
It does not matter if you aren't in the game.
It does not matter if you are posting about a game taking place on another forum or posting about an MS game on another forum.
It does not matter if you are moderating the game in question.

Discussing ongoing games by quoting or otherwise referring to an ongoing game is forbidden. There is no clever way around this rule. Don't try.

If you are unsure whether something violates the rule against discussing ongoing games, please don't hesitate to contact a listmod.

THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES FOR YOU

Discussing ongoing games may result in a full game ban. This will mean that you are force replaced out of all your games, and you will not be allowed to replace back into them at the end of your ban. Further bans will be far harsher, including and up to a permanent ban from the site.

Game Moderators: Take IMMEDIATE action.

Game moderators are expected to step in and take immediate action when players discuss ongoing games in the game thread -- at least a public warning in the thread not to discuss ongoing games. This is not optional for the game moderator. You may not, as a game moderator, allow people to discuss ongoing games in your thread unless the other game allows for it explicitly in the rules.

Exceptions

There are three primary exceptions.

Communications with authorities

You may PM, IM or otherwise contact the game mod(s), listmods who aren't involved in the game, and admins who aren't in the game. Likewise, listmods and admins will sometimes discuss ongoing games for administrative purposes.

The Game Allows Outside Communication

Where a game allows communication, it may be allowed. This must be EXPLICITLY stated in the rules (and as a listmod, we'd appreciate it if game mods would give us a heads up when this is the case).

Please note that a game mod may allow communications about his or her OWN game to be discussed elsewhere, but he or she may

NOT

allow discussion of other ongoing games in their thread.

Discussions about Activity

Players may discuss activity in other games in a general sense, including counting how many games a player is alive in. However, this may not mention ANYTHING of substance.

OKAY:

"Zoraster is alive in 4 games and is posting in those games, but he hasn't posted here in 3 days."

NOT OKAY:

"Zoraster is alive in 4 games where he's posting lengthy posts. <The violation here is mentioning that the posts are LONG. This is a substantive statement.>

OKAY:

"I'm alive in 3 games, and I'm having trouble keeping up with all of them."

NOT OKAY:

: "I'm in LYLO in a game, so that's taking a lot of my time." <The violation here is mentioning that you're in LYLO. This is a substantive statement.>

---

This isn't a hard rule to stay on the right side of the line on. The listmods would like to never have to take action again. Please don't try and toe the line on ongoing games.

[Apple Jack]

I don’t think anyone was doing that or getting close to that.

Well, I really don't like you pushing a claimed IC. Granted, Shea has been kinda shitty this game and hasn't explained shit (to the newbs) and claimed at L-2, but I tend to go with a more traditional approach to claims because then everyone can get on the same page.

You are making this game difficult by also not doing what is considered normal. Like you are compounding the issue that Shea has already produced.

[Apple Jack]

Well tbh I’m not really worried about what you like. I’m scum reading him and he certainly hasn’t played townie like and we still have some people who hasn’t posted yet so. Once everyone has posted and there is no cc MAYBE I’ll back off but he doesn’t get a few ride just because he claimed.

[Apple Jack]

So who do you think is scum now you’ve backed off tsq?

[Apple Jack]

The inactivity is going to kill this game

[wilky]

It just seems to be DH and shea going back and fourth which isn't helpful for Town.

No one has CCed shea yet.

DH should know we don't lynch shea if there is no CC.

I agree with this. Derpy is tunnelling on Shea and Shea is going between both you and Derpy but I don't think Shea is really bringing any reasons to lynch either of you to the table and if Shea is PR then it wouldn't look good on Derpy either.

[Apple Jack]

Tsq is literally playing like a newb. Which is weird given he’s been on site 4 years longer than I have and he’s supposed to be the IC

[wilky]

I'm not saying he isn't but he's claimed PR and so far noone has CC'd either. With only CS left to cc the claim i'm willing to edge towards believing the claim unless there's a cc somewhere

[Apple Jack]

Ok

[Thestatusquo]

I think derpy is town. The more I see his reactions to me (especially the out your alt post) the more I think they're way more likely to come from town.

I will have a case up against quick at some point. I think that he's very likely to be scum.

[Apple Jack]

Would be nice since I’ve been trying to get that from you for a while now.

[Thestatusquo]

I gave you the cliff notes already. If you don't agree with them I doubt you'll like the rest.

How about this, though. If I'm scum, who is likely to be my buddy and if so why? I know this thought experiment will be difficult for you but: If I am not scum who is scum and why?

[Apple Jack]

You and wilky remain my top scum reads.

[Thestatusquo]

Why does wilky fit as my partner? Would wilky still be likely scum if I flipped town?

[Apple Jack]

I explained earlier why I think you are partners. You decided to insult my reasons remember?

I’ll have to re-evaluate if you end up being town.

I think you are just having an off game tbh.
