[Mini 1987] Snowman's Bad Idea Mafia: Aliens [GG]

[Brandi]

FIRST

VOTE: Brandi

Thanks for joining, now I gotta lynch you.

howDAREyou beat me to this thread

VOTE: EeveeLution Army
For having the cutest and most badass sounding username

[Brandi]

what you guys made a lot of posts my brain has been so scrambled from work hold on

[Brandi]

Hey everyone sorry for needing the prod, work has been extra exhausting when I'm home I keep failing to cope with my ADHD and end up falling asleep instead of doing things that I'm supposed to do. =_=

Reading through with my current free time~ will post more later tonight I hope~

page 1:
- I do not recognize most users, I have not played mafia in quite a while though so that is to be expected

- Mathdino takes me as his random vote target, an obvious choice as he's the reason I'm in this game (sorry)

- Whemestar claims as his first post, no random vote. According to the wiki a Lynchee is rarely self-aware. Also that it is another name for Jester which is a role that wins win they are lynched. I don't know, maybe this
Whemestar is perhaps joking or baiting instead of truly claiming- as it appears to be an odd claim. Though this is a Bad Idea Mafia.

-Jurassic Monster votes for me,no reason given. So I assume they likely are serious about it- as a random vote usually has a random reason. Nothing else to say about this.

-Vaxkiller votes for me too, hmm. I'm not sure why. That's 3 votes on me on page 1. Interesting.



page 2:
-Vaxkiller chooses to vote for Twoinamillion for their belief that 3rd party lyncher can help the town. Agree with 2inaMil that that shortsighted, the vote here seems opportunistic. Bad reason.

-Gamma asks Vax not to rolefish him. A serious accusation, met with just a simple request. So I suppose they believe Vax to be town then? Rolefishing is a very scummy thing to do.

-TywinL vote on 2inaMil also seems a tad oppurtunistic and worse than Vax's vote imo

-Gamma says meta says Tywin is town. Mmm. Not sure how I feel about Gamma but I don't think someone would like about meta.

~Post #49 by TwoinaMil I agree 100%

page 3:

-mostly agree with Mathdino's assesment of things

-ethos taking things a bit personally saying "I'm not gonna like you" lol


-sorry i gotta go I promise I'll be more active than this. Just had a bad week <3

[Brandi]

k im finally off of work
back when i signed up i wasn't scheduled like this but they changed everything up on me
i haven't eaten in 2 days and haven't slept in 30 hours but i will continue my read as of now

[Brandi]

UNVOTE:

sorry, meant to d o th at ear lier

[Brandi]

sorry I'm not sure how that second post happened?

[Brandi]

I'm here now though. Sorry for being so difficult. I'm not being lazy or skipping out on purpose but I don't have energy to talk about that stuff, so I'm just going to work on this for the night.

[Brandi]

Tywin why you givin out your townreads like candy
(wait do i do that)

Mathdino so quick to accept someone else's town calls post #79
hmm

Jurassic monster is all like "my vote on u is srs btw"
-good to know i guess

Tywin asking non-posters to post (+town points)

Twoinamillion says in #177
that lurking is scummy
but lurking and voting someone else who is lurking is somehow town??
srange

Mathdino NO STOP DEFENDING ME IM TERRIBLE lmao AHHHHH

Jurassic Monster gives a neutral ish reason for voting me feeling neutral vibes here

Gamma town maybe

Wilky goodposts

eth0s #320 since when was i tryin to convince anyone of anything?

Viomi puts in a lot of effort, is one thing i can say

TIAM seems like a good vote
good job MD!

ethose says "yawn"
i guess the game is boring him or he just woke up and is ready to take on the day

I suck I'm so sorry

disagree with Vax #515 and am kinda confused by their thoughts


okay like 15 more pages <_<

[Brandi]

such ego

[Brandi]

well that's not true.

[Brandi]

rip wilky

hello chickadee

whemestar votes chick now??? ok????

i dunno is assembler is the BEST vote
but not really a bad vote

2am voting vax, interesting

dont like ethos vote on viomi

...posts getting deleted...what?

ethos #823 makes me think he does care but hes wrong

[Brandi]

Eh, I don't like Twoinamillion votes anymore

kinda wanna vote assemble but i don't know anything about them except they were apparently personally hurt by Viomi in the past which says nothing of their alignment in this game.

[Brandi]

and they prob just need to catch up like me

[Brandi]

Well, I thought 2am wasn't scum soon after I was done reading, I wish he would have at least tried to defend himself.

Seems like he was feeling down though. TWOinaMillion if you are reading this, I hope you are okay and don't feel so bad about a game, okay? We will win this, you are still on our team

[Brandi]

catching up real quick.
I know its very bad to be gone for days at a time. I don't wanna talk about why, no point in that. Would just annoy people to explain things.

I guess for me right now I'm struggling with coming up with something more useful or helpful to say. Since everyone is so new to me I feel like I read too much into someone's attitude when I don't know them and see it as scummy. Second guessing myself too much.
Don't wanna say anything that I'm just gonna go and change my opinion one page later.

Some thoughts:
I don't understand the Viomi and Dino dynamic in this game at all.
Dino is probably town. At the very least hes super active and is keeping this train chugging.
Viomi goes on and off people a lot- seems really inconsistent but also still very town motivated?
Whemestar sounds like he really wants to get lynched- I dunno if I want to lynch someone who wants to be lynched.

-phonecall will be back-

[Brandi]

-Tywin is a bad vote
-Not liking JM very much, don't think they are being sincere

Hmmm. Maybe wheme is town, I finally riled him up.

vote: Vaxkiller

This reaction screams scum to me. Sounds like he's paranoid and trying to play it cool.

Why is nobody willing to vote me wtf

I mean if you wanna die so badly.....

FOS: EeveeLution Army

>Easter EGG
>THE RAPTURE
The world is ending?

Eevee, this was directed to you:

Also, why do you never vote Eevee?

Its cause honestly i don't scumread anyone enough to lynch them.

Hmmm no this is valid. Not having a vote means you just aren't strong in your convictions. It's not a scumtell.
But Eevee is still scummy.

Also Agree that @Assemble needs to explain #1181.

@Viomi: If he's scum I'd be surprised but I don't think it's impossible for this game.

[Brandi]

Also I don't like and don't trust Gamma but I have nothing to go off of, just ~feels~ But I think it needs to be said.

[Brandi]

(and by don't like I don't mean as a person- as in for town- I'm sure you are a great person Gamma)

[Brandi]

-Tywin is a bad vote

Wanna give a reason why voting for an active lurker with very little substance in his posts that dips his toe in before joining any wagon and fence-sits on everything else is a bad vote?

A lurker he may be

and perhaps,
that is a valid reason to vote him

however, it must be said, that since day one, i have read, him to be town
and so

i still a gree that no
he's not a good vote

[Brandi]

Mathdino are you the only person noticing/seeing this
can anyone else confirm what Mathdino is seeing?

How do you notice these things so well Mathdino
wtf

[Brandi]

well that's scary
i have awful memory problems
i can't just remember posts
and posts are important and are used to hold people accountable and make connections
that's really shitty for the town, or at least me with my memory problems

[Brandi]

I don't completely understand what happened but MD's #1362 has been helpful though probably not all accurate

[Brandi]

because i felt like checking in but don't have a lot more to say than my current simpler thoughts

[Brandi]

And I'm reluctant to label MathDino as of yet

[Brandi]

i gotta sleep now but my mind has been in a bad place. Im refreshing and will make a good post in the morning.

sorry mod for making you poke me so much :/

[Brandi]

I'm so lost this game

Honestly with reading a little more today I feel the same.

I see most people want to no-lynch.

I don't think it's a terrible idea, but is it really our best option?

I'm willing to vote it because yeah, we don't have a lot of information to work with.

@Tywin
You claimed the town/players in this game are bad, but why randomly just make that statement especially when an action is being pushed. If you oppose- speak up as to why? I feel more elaborate thoughts on how to do things right would help the town more.

[Brandi]

vote: no lynch

i thought i did this yesterday :/

[Brandi]

FUCKING

why

did Dino have to die

he thought of no lynch to get information, and then he WAS the information ;_;

feel better @mod ;/ <3

[Brandi]

-ooc- just fyi they had me work till 7:30 pm tonight but I gotta get up at 3:30 am to be at work at 4:30
I might not post tomorrow I might sleep all day when i get home and post in the afternoon the following day

[Brandi]

FUCKING

why

did Dino have to die

he thought of no lynch to get information, and then he WAS the information ;_;

feel better @mod ;/ <3

This seems like a huge overreaction.

Not at all.

I’m going to claim right now. I’m 3rd party. My win condition does not end the game, so town can still win with me. If my win condition is met I just disappear. If my win condition is unattainable I become vanilla town.

So for all intents and purposes I have been playing with a town mindset. Please don’t lynch me.

For clarity, if I can’t win on my own the only other way to play to my wincon is to play with town.

So you get two winconditions?

VOTE: Brandi

This slot has largely been up in the air with posts few and far between. Their reaction to the dino death is exaggerated and fake. This is where I'm most willing to lynch.

Your reaction here is what seems exaggerated and fake lmao.

[Brandi]

vote: chick

I think she's full of it

[Brandi]

yeah, i can see why we wouldn't lynch wheme

but you're pretty scummy, best vote i can see for right now

So you "win" by finding and killing someone-
You gonna kill a townie and then we lose another player in the game hypothetically (you?) if you disappear

I dunno sounds sketchy

And of course I'm upset about Dino going- he is the reason I joined this game and I was hoping he'd stay around for a while- And me reacting dramatically is not unheard of.
So your reaction seems like scum reaching for an 'easy' target

[Brandi]

she could be lying

also why are you talking to me about my vote when your vote is also on me like ???
you think im scum why you gotta go wasting your time tryin to convince me

[Brandi]

and if everyone else believes her then fine my vote might as well be on no one and i'll change it if I see reason to

[Brandi]

I just see no compelling reason to vote Tywin.

unvote

[Brandi]

lol

like if being a lurker is the best you have then i guess

all that i can think about is who the hell would kill dino though, someone who wanted to kill discussion?

[Brandi]

@Tywin

come defend yourself? do you care about the town winning? :/

[Brandi]

like reviewing my notes and re reading, @GAMMA said that Tywin was town D1 due to meta. Meta is usually a strong reason. What has changed?

[Brandi]

like reviewing my notes and re reading, @GAMMA said that Tywin was town D1 due to meta. Meta is usually a strong reason. What has changed?

You probably haven't gotten far enough to read this so I'll repeat: I had wrong meta based on a faulty assumption. After knowing that I started reading them based off of their play here.

No, I've read. I just somehow missed you saying this. Or didn't understand when you said it.

[Brandi]

wow forgot i can't edit posts in games but
meant to @Chick too since she expressed the same sentiment.

[Brandi]

i was going to say it's been this long and he still hasn't come to say anything, i'd be willing to support a lynch but i feel the strongest thing we have on tywin is "lurker"
and that's like the strongest thing on me and I'm town so lmao I don't like just throwing around probably townies for no good reason we have been doing not the best i think

[Brandi]

but now tywin is being replaced so that seems wrong.

[Brandi]

sigh i honestly can't beleive it's already monday
im catching up sorry. things felt like they were slow the last time i was posting and now suddenly its been 4 pages

[Brandi]

what zito is in this game now wtf did we do to deserve this blessing

[Brandi]

OH THANK GOD ZITO IS REPLACING MY TOWN READ

Spoiler:

brassherald replaces Assemblerotws

too

dunno who this is, but holy shit their names are eerily comparable

@Tywin

come defend yourself? do you care about the town winning? :/

LAMIST.

Also, Brandi is not scum hunting, just looking for lurkers.

VOTE: Brandi

I have no idea what this means, but I'm offended that you think caring about the town is lame :I

The issue with Brandi is not that she's lurking, lurking is NAI. It's that she is not doing anything to try to solve the game when she does post.

There's absolutely no attempts to scum hunt or sort through any of the other doors, her only reasoning for any lynch is that they are not posting enough

That's not true. I am attempting to scumhunt. Are you saying because I have not found scum yet by myself that is scummy? I don't remember being happy or enthusiastic about that being a reason. But nothing of substance has really been going on, and there are no glaring revelations to make as of yet.

@Gamma saying i've been active on the site: I think I posted once or twice but it was like a low effort i didn't realize anything had been happening in here worth commenting on, i dont like to check the game thread unless i have at least 1 hour of free time ahead of me whereas checking a few threads real quick and posting takes a few minutes. I don't really have to think hard or put emotional effort to say i liked a movie or whatever. (I can't remember what I've done or said)

@Wheme's points about chick:
well like I've not believed chick but apparently when someone claims lyncher/3p you have to INSTANTLY believe them

[Brandi]

also sorry for not being the biggest help, but, i just have more null/town reads than overtly scummy reads. But I feel a lot has just not been given to get much adequate reads on everyone fully. I guess we could look at things like... who accused Dino of being scum or at all tried to seriously push for him. He was pretty strong town and pro discussion so it really sucks he died. :/

Okay but for real chick openly admitting to deleting posts for the lulz and wants to be called town like ??? wat ??? is she pre emptively defending herself because someone will be able to find out she did this on purpose?
However given this information

That
*chick deleting posts on purpose
*chaos questioning insuing

re read is very important


ffff

[Brandi]

gamma shut up
"your town read"

like there is only 1 lol

[Brandi]

like YES i called him my town read but you KNOW im not implying hes the only one by saying it that way ???

[Brandi]

the way he act/reacted to things in the game, though minimal, reads as town-motivated to me and thus he's been a town read just not a *big helpful* town read like Mathdino was

[Brandi]

wait didn't we not know for sure that he was killed by scum? Wasn't that bit up in the air?

Also yes if that's not what you were implying then sorry, nvm, I wasn't mad anyway that's just how I read it

[Brandi]

also calling someone scum is not the same as pushing them
scum could just as easily call someone scum early on to have something solid to refer back to later when they try to get them lynched in lylo and say "see i called him scum the whole game" sorta dealeo

[Brandi]

i don't know, there is weird alien bullshit going on in this game, and viomi was questioning whether or not Dino died due to asking a "bad question"- from his role. No one had died the first night either, which is weird. Someone had asked the mod if Dino was NK'd or not but I don't remember them getting a response.

[Brandi]

Thank goodness Zito has arrived.

welcome Nero! pls excuse the mess.

@mod: may we please have an updated votecount?

[Brandi]

Chickadee just confuses the heck out of me. I almost believe her with just how ridiculous things are sounding.

[Brandi]

(((and yeah once every 48 hours is a lot more challenging than I thought it would be I admit I fucked up in my own expectations of what I was capable of doing. I don't remember ever having such a short timeframe for posting in the past but, yeah. I'm sorry I've been so inactive mostly. I do care/am invested I just have nothing unique to say most of the time and sometimes sleep an entire day or two after working.)))

[Brandi]

Omg wheme it’s like you don’t even read my posts. I said I leave the game if I lynch you. I become vanilla town

if you die and I’m not involved in killing you

. Stop twisting my words.

I will be sorted tonight.

Get off my case.

what does this mean?
he's not dead?
by "sorted out tonight"
do u mean hes going to die tonight and somehow ur preemptively town now, is his death somehow now confirmed and the change made????? WHAT??


also fuck mod hasn't given a votecount yet :I

[Brandi]

fuck, mod not "fuck mod" sorry mod i love you

[Brandi]

...wrong emoji

[Brandi]

oog: things have been straight up HELLISH with my living situation, emotions at 1000% and possibility of me being homeless up in the air but i think i have a friend whose couch i can crash on now if worse comes to worse. I'm doing my best to be here.

I'm painfully surprised that Chick is town. I'm regretful and upset at myself for not being able to think more deeply about this.
Sorry Chick.

let me know when i should claim cause yeah looks like things are bad and we need as much info as possible.

[Brandi]

oh i see, we are doing massclaim. I'll go when I'm called. :>

[Brandi]

Sorry sorry making a post in a bit can someone give me a list of who is left to popcorn? I'm very stressed rn and don't want to think.

Okay so my role is

"universal" backup

Apparentley I'm really good at copying others, even aliens.

Basically I am VT but when someone dies, if they fit the mod's definition of a copy-able role then i get their ability. My win con can't change.

So if we don't lynch me today, and lynch an actual scum instead- perhaps I can copy something. Because so far ... no one with a copyable role has died.

[Brandi]

lol meant to post the first line as a post when i got home from work and just went right back into the text box down here before going to go deal with some bs and chores/errands

PLS HELP I NEED SLEEP

[Brandi]

and i haven't been lurking my only posts recently were in relation to RL life/death crisis and not even on open forum.

[Brandi]

also meant to mention @Viomi i hope you are able to get a break soon and that this mafia game is not burdening your psyche too much. Please take care of yourself.

[Brandi]

and i haven't been lurking my only posts recently were in relation to RL life/death crisis and not even on open forum.

ignore this, this was at response to viomi #2047 but she was actually just responding to why i was scummy, not something i did recently.

I have a bad habit of misinterpreting things.

[Brandi]

I'm really upset about it too.

[Brandi]

tbh I want to fight my lynch so bad but it's hard because i've been so terrible. I legit fucking suck at this game and I feel bad for implicating chick so hard when this game is clearly absolutely ridiculous and i should have had an more open mind.

I spent the beginning thinking my role was pretty neat, and worried about getting lynched early before getting to copy something cool. But now we are this late into the game- so? I don't think I'll get that chance.

[Brandi]

also i fall for scum too much

[Brandi]

what sounds fake about it

pls elaborate mr nero cain

[Brandi]

Nah, I would just like to know your reasoning for dismissing something. If you actually think it's fake, say why. It's very convenient for you otherwise.

what is UB?

[Brandi]

oh,

the way you said it made me think of some common mafia term i wasn't aware of

[Brandi]

or the way i read it in my head, rather

[Brandi]

And I DO have a power. I think UB sounds really STRONG if it FKING works on something right? Oh no our *really awesome power role* died, don't worry, we have two!

[Brandi]

...nevermind. I'm just committed to misreading everything said ever.

[Brandi]

I thought you were saying I didn't have a power as in my role was too weak

[Brandi]

And nah dude. I think it's messed up that I haven't gotten to use my back up ability despite the roles so far. Perhaps I'm just very unlucky.

[Brandi]

because i doubt the mod would forget to let me know if i had a power now or something in the new day

[Brandi]

vote: EeveeLution Army

[Brandi]

POE, need my vote somewhere. Don't like the convenient VT claim. The scum has to have some sort of cool roles and someone in here is fucking lying so i know i definitely have more options on the table than just what's been said because OBV if all the scum are out there- ALL OF THEM ARE LYING. Since DINO confirmed they have fake claims.

[Brandi]

I'm so mad beacuse

whoever scum is knew that killing mathdino (i guess he died by scum? no one confirmed) would kill conversation. Things were pretty okay and hopeful for a while. Just kill the active- good pro-town players and then discussion dies and no information is gained.

non specific game-related rant:

Spoiler:

I know I've not been a great contributor, but i honestly have been trying. I'm not very good at making connections.
I've not really played this game more than a dozen times over the course of a decade and was hoping that since work had been becoming more consistent and I had had more free time (turns out not true) i could finally join a family friendly fun game of mafia and try to see if i can improve at it so i can play more since i do like the game and the people. But like most often i've found myself confused and disoriented.

Guess I need to go back to therapy and get on that depression medication.

[Brandi]

You're claiming POE because she's the most suspicious claim?

I don't think you know what that term means.

it's not just her claim, but her claim is pretty suspicious

[Brandi]

POE based on my personal reads not all the players in a vaccum

[Brandi]

non specific game-related rant:

meant

non specific non-game related:

i hate being dyslexic and impulsive

[Brandi]

so quiet on my only days off pls say something guys ask me questions if u have any if im getting lynched i wanna give any helpful info i can if we get a tomorrow

[Brandi]

i think wheme is town and viomi is town.

i'm not really sure on zito. Though I'm glad he's here.

Never felt strong about eevee all game, never saw much from her to judge too well either but she's read mostly scummy so far and I'm not confident in her claim.

Nero Cain is probably scum, his predecessor was scummy and so far I feel like I'm a convenient target for scum. At lest he is somewhat active, though.

[Brandi]

and idk wheme. All I know is that all roles are either repeatable or not, and I get the one that is repeatable that dies for the rest of the game. I'm starting to think that there is a limited pool of roles that I actually mesh with. Maybe MOD feels my ability would be too OP if too many roles could be copied?

[Brandi]

i feel like my death would not be a major loss for the town as i am kind of like a power role dying but not exactly because i don't have a power right now- and those out there that are good enough to be copied are still alive so i guess they can still use their stuff.

[Brandi]

when i flip as UB are u guys gonna feel bad for me even a little bit lol
im sure mod will have a good explanation

[Brandi]

im not appealing to anything

[Brandi]

okay well i think anyone in my position would be a little frustrated, and now i further empathize with chickadee and like feel super guilty for not realizing it.

[Brandi]

oh damn was i deathly wrong about wheme

[Brandi]

i mean look at the timing of the post

[Brandi]

p sure it was

[Brandi]

yeah nero/wheme/eevee ? :B

[Brandi]

unvote

vote: whemestar

kay

[Brandi]

No one said anything about a L-1

I’m not believing a universal backup that hasn’t activated yet

and in lylo as town that's just not something you care to check???

[Brandi]

Speaking of which, blacklisting the fuck out of WhemeStar from any future game I play in, cannot

stand

people who just jump on big wagons without checking if they're going to hammer later on in the game.

Oh, and yes, I could've stopped all kills, but instead I decided to try and shoot an alien first, considering how many there were... With the assimilation they could've just out voted us the following days unless I started using my charges on vigs immediately, so.

Good game though, if town could not quickhammer and also could be fucking clear with what their roles are in the future that'd be great. Literally all Brandi would've had to done is said the word "repeatable". Fml. GG Aliens.

and idk wheme. All I know is that all roles are either repeatable or not, and I get the one that is repeatable that dies for the rest of the game. I'm starting to think that there is a limited pool of roles that I actually mesh with. Maybe MOD feels my ability would be too OP if too many roles could be copied?

Like she did here?

I should've specified: In her

original

claim.

sorry, i was claiming from memory- used the word repeatable after i had double checked
and i thought literal word for word claims were against the site rules

[Brandi]

I didn't mean to make an angry face but now i forget what face i was trying to make

[Brandi]

are dead threads a thing the mod is only allowed to post bc i promise it's not that interesting!!
