Mini 1475: War in the Middle East Mafia (Game Over)

[waynegg]

I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.

- Albert Einstein

Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.

- Bhagavad Gita

And you tell me, over and over and over again, my friend;
you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.

- P.F. Sloan

And then there's this which further alludes to the craziness of my no scum thought.

Like I said, crazy thought, but it's ever present all the same and I wouldn't put it past Jiffy to do this.

[waynegg]

For the record, I've read a no scum game and it was fucking hilarious.

[waynegg]

Doc or whatever sees town as innocent. He would get that result from anybody if my hypothesis is correct.

Are you in a round about way claiming you or your slot killed Purpkin and are town?

[waynegg]

And then that would make the case for tso's Insane claim to have two in estimations in such a small game because the crazy cop would keep us killing each other...

[waynegg]

*investigations, not estimations

[waynegg]

Personally, I would laugh my as off if he is trolling us!

[waynegg]

Well, if you want to test your happily ever after theory... the vigilante must no kill today. If someone dies tonight, there's scum present. How does that sound Wayne?

But, no. What would have to happen is the vig would out and be lynched and flip town, there would be no NK, and then we would no lynch to or row to beat Jiffy. But, since nobody is stepping up to martyr they're either scared or more likely its a bad theory.

[waynegg]

Guys, thats really stupid.

If it was the case, Majiffy would not have said " this game

may

be considered bastard" but would have directly said it was bastard.

I read the same game and the reason why there has only been one of those, is because everyone was pissed. It cant happen again.

Anyway, BRO will not be back before the deadline.

Pitoli thinks BRO is scum, he's null leaning scum for me.

VOTE: BROseidon

L-1

DP. Tell me that game didn't read just like this one TOO.FUCKING.MANY.TOWNZ. Look at all the paranoia and reluctance to hammer. If you really read it, you've got to at least recognize the similarities.

Baezu (2): rhyx, Ten_Heavens
Salt n Pepper (2): killerjester, waynegg
BROseidon (5): T S O, runnerman, Your Troubles Will Cease, Baezu, Salt n Pepper
Not Voting: BROseidon, Titus

With 11 alive, it takes 6 to lynch.
Deadline is Monday, August 5th at 9 PM Eastern Time.

[waynegg]

True. Unless he's a forced vig.

[waynegg]

And give me one UNVOTE so I can reveal my hidden gambit.

[waynegg]

You can put it right back on if you don't like what I have.

[waynegg]

It's already done and I may not be around

[waynegg]

Hammer now and you're scum. I need one UNVOTE for insurance please.

[waynegg]

Leeway? You sure are acting scummy as fuck right now.

[waynegg]

Then don't hammer, ok?

[waynegg]

You guys almost ruined this one many times. Buddy here. Buddy there. Buddy everyfuckingwhere. Thing is, I used to be so susceptible to buddying it was ridiculous. After losing two games in a row because of it and then a third because the town cop was buddied by the fucking godfather, I swore no more. I'm now probably more sedative than most to it. This game I decided to let it play out to see if I could force a slip. I think I did.

Like I said, you guys made it a lot harder than it had to be. As soon as KJ said 100%, the hair on the back of my neck stood on end. I almost shrugged it off as soon as it happened. But then a thought occurred. How about I use the buddy against them by making him feel like we were all warm and cuddly. The moment he said he was "other investigator" I set the final the final trap...

You are so bad at this Titus...

He crumbed not Cop. I assumed Cop, but given what he said about his role the not Cop makes sense. So is it other investigative or scum?

Yea waynegg nailed it spot on. #78 was my investigation crumb and #145 was my not-being-a-cop crumb.

There's little to no possibility that waynegg is actually scum because he found the crumbs before I ever claimed anything. From his POV, it's MUCH more likely for townegg to recognize sane-crumbs than it would be for scumegg to look at insane-crumbs and actually recognize them as insane-crumbs.

Just go through the thought process yourself. You're town and see someone calling you 100% obvtown. So, being the good little detective that you are, you wonder why. A little later you see that player offhandedly mention cops. Ok so that probably means he's a cop or some other sort of investigative role, that makes sense.

Or instead you're scum and see someone calling you 100% obvtown. So being the good little scum that you are, you don't fucking care why. You look like town to someone and that's all that matters. Moreover, why would you assume that player is a cop, any [sane] investigation on you would turn up guilty!

As you can see, it just wouldn't come naturally to scum to look at my crumbs and assume insane-cop. Waynegg is town because A. My investigation says so, and B. Waynegg knew I had an investigative role before I claimed anything.

What's missing between my post and his?

[waynegg]

Bleach sure was awesome tonight!

[waynegg]

Sorry for dragging that out, but after the Cop crumb, had to be sure and had to coax him into admitting he isn't a Cop. It would be a shame to misread and kill a Cop. The fact he didn't allow for, or at least refute the scum, shows he didn't want to touch that with a ten foot pole. He just glossed over it with an overly flowery, upbeat, I dun got over on everyone post.

[waynegg]

Wait, you're arguing KJ is scum?

I'm saying could be. And since I'm figuring on death tonight, I need to get that out there, even if prematurely.

[waynegg]

Fucking hell I hate you all. I'm on V/LA dammit.

I'm Kuwait, town busdriver.

Can we go back to lynching troubles or the shitty mason claim now?

VOTE: troubles

C'mon. Not all.

[waynegg]

And don't be butthurt KJ and follow me back to the win train

VOTE: YTWC

[waynegg]

Lol!

[waynegg]

@Mod: When does Happily Ever After trigger?

There is no happily ever after in war, silly.

VCs are up.

QFT!

[waynegg]

But hey, this is mafia, so there

must

be scum, right?

YTWC or TSO? Who goes? If we're going to lynch, stop pussyfooting around and take a stance. Or Titus...

[waynegg]

Well that was a really bad reaction to a reaction tea

VOTE: TITUSVOTE:

[waynegg]

Well that was a really bad reaction to a reaction tea

VOTE: TITUS


P.s. no, not bad spelling, just a nod to my Brit friends. they have reaction tea, not tests...

[waynegg]

We could have a lynch tomorrow just as easily.

So...

Titus goes for the no claim quicklynch

Titus makes it sound like this has to happen today

We still have 35 hrs 13 minute 23 seconds

[waynegg]

Day ends tomorrow at 9 PM

[waynegg]

Nope. I'm not lynching somebody I'm on the fence with who is v/la

[waynegg]

Well we have 5 town members wanting BRO and six who disagree but can't come to a consensus between themselves. Looks like a stalemate. I'm good with TSO, YTWC, or Titus. Who is everybody else good with?

[waynegg]

Ok I'm having my doubts that you actually know what gambitting means.

First of all, for all you know I could be a VT that received a cop invention last night. Just because I have an innocent on you does not at all limit my role possibilities to town-investigative or scum. Second off, I never feel the need to specify that I'm not scum in games, because any player of any alignment would state the same, "I am not scum" (read: Appeal to Emotion). Thirdly, it didn't even look like your question was directed at me. If anything, it seemed rhetorical.

I mean I know you're town and stuff but if all your gambits are like this you should probably stop gambitting and just sheep me instead.

This is good, btw.

[waynegg]

And I find myself agreeing with SnP. What the fuck?

Get your towncred - vote BRO!

Wayne, it looks like Bro is the lynch. Deal with it unless you give us a real good reason why he's town.

And this kind of peer pressure just looks scummy as hell. I'm much more happy with my Titus vote now.

[waynegg]

Do NOT derp out.

And this hurts that you think it's necessary to say this.

[waynegg]

Says the scum...

[waynegg]

How about you end your cheesed and just do it.

[waynegg]

*cherade

[waynegg]

*Charade

I never realized exactly how much Cher looks like a man until just now...

[waynegg]

KJ what do you think of YTWC? He's lurkaderp that only shows up when conversation swings his way.

VOTE: YOURTROUBLESWILLCEASE

Lets see him hammer with legit pressure on him to go along with his obvious Beetlejuice.
