Mini 799 - One Flew Over A Cuckoo's Nest, Abandoned for Real

[Platypus_Dude]

/confirm

I see a single familiar face out there. At least one that knows me. I've seen a few of you around the site.

Vote: Kise

[Platypus_Dude]

I know Crazy from elsewhere. Good to be in a game with you too, but don't get your hopes up about me.

I also thought someone said I was bad or something when you mentioned me.

[Platypus_Dude]

You commented on someone who didn't help hunting when you did the same thing.

The Day the World Went Away is in the new Terminator movie's trailer.

And how does that make you angry? That's the most mellow NIN I've listened to ever.

If you get to be angry over NIN, then I get to deal with the impossible because I'm reading "Physics of the Impossible."

[Platypus_Dude]

Already looking to start a wagon, are we?

And KKN, I'm still waiting to know who your daddy is.

Something odd strikes me about his posts. I'm not sure what though. Is there any reason you want an answer to that question? Also, why didn't you answer VP's question?

[Platypus_Dude]

EBWOP:

Any reason you want an answer to that Daddy question?

[Platypus_Dude]

Kise: I don't really see a point to the question.

Also, You can call me PD or Platy. No need to put the underscore as it's a bit out of the way.

[Platypus_Dude]

P. Diddy?

I guess you could call me that, but I wouldn't hold your breath for an answer.

The point of my silly question/actions is because I am trying to bait KKN into responding a certain way. Yes, KKN in particular, but it does not hurt to see the reactions of others as well.

Well, since you aren't pursuing that anymore, would you mind saying what you were looking for for answers?

Vote: molestargazer lurking.

Ironic much? Also, what is your stance on lurking?

I want to add that I wish there are some aggressive players in this game. It might make some of the newer people or lurkers more interested in the game.

[Platypus_Dude]

If there is any post restriction, the Chief Bramdon (sp?) has one.

I'm not sure what the other characters would have for roles.

[Platypus_Dude]

o_O

Unvote: Kise;
Vote: Josh Lyman

for vote hopping.

Taran is lurking more, and you changed your vote after someone switched to them. Any reason you would rather vote skitzer?

VP: I'm getting the sense that you like the game to move quickly? Any reason?

[Platypus_Dude]

It's more fun and will move us out of the RVS sooner. Any reason not to?

Nope, I'm just trying to get a sense of people's playstyle.

MS.NET mods have had a HUGE anti-cop meta for a while now

Really? Of all the forum mafia games I've played (including other sites), I only remember two without a cop. I don't remember much of any crippling either. I sort of expected a cop to be in this one; most likely because I'm used to it.

Reading VPB as very pro-town so far.

What in particular so far could give you a 'very pro-town' reading of him?

[Platypus_Dude]

Kise: I think that it's good that you're finding connections between players, but not all connections necessarily mean maf. It's sometimes better to watch the connections rather than comment on each one.

I just want to throw this out there -- Have you all noticed how independent I am? Juuuust checking to see if anyone has noticed I'm quite a loner thus far.

To me, this almost reads as, "Look how townie I am!" Why did you feel the need to add that?

It seems like skitzer posts mostly when he's called upon. Is that intentional?

[Platypus_Dude]

Nothing inherently. Saying for sure that there is a cop would imply inside knowledge and thus would be scummy. Kise has clarified that this was not what he was doing, but that clarification would not have happened if mole had not asked. I think it was a fair question.

I don't know of any scum roles that can find out other roles in the game, can you describe and/or post the link to one?

Is this sarcastic?

I'd like to know the answer to this as well.

[Platypus_Dude]

Welcome Alex. I seen a few games with you in them, but I don't remember any of them.

For instance, if he was a member of the scum and had a role like "investigation immune godfather" that would perhaps imply to him that there would be a high probabililty of a cop being in this game. Do you understand where I'm coming from?

Ahhh, ok. I see now.

Nothing really to comment on since my last post...I'll just have to make due I guess.

I consider all possibilities, so I figured that if there were a LD role, he could check me out during N1 and see whether I am telling the truth about everything I said.

Are you planning to do a LD test for every game? If not, why did you do it in this one?

I'm not sure of the last time I saw imaginality. I'm also wondering what happened with KKN.

[Platypus_Dude]

I'm sad to say it's obvious when VP Baltar doesn't post.

Camn: I'm guessing you're still happy with your vote?

Mod: Will you inform us what the special mechanic is?

[Platypus_Dude]

Wow. Someone I don't know has read me? I'm flattered... Do you recall the games?

Not offhand.

BTW, I have two votes. Temporarily. One is my normal vote.. one is a "secret" vote.

And it may or may not be permanent. That is unknown to me.

The first quote says you can vote temporarily. The second says you're unsure if or when you lose it. Why the switch?

[Platypus_Dude]

I looked at the PM again.

Do you think I am FAKE-CLAIMING double voter?
/camn raises right eyebrow to maximum height...

I don't think you are, but we'll find out in the vote count I guess.

To me it's strange that you wouldn't double check before you first brought up getting that power.

Why would a Townie claim scum at all, ever? I don't know, but I've seen it happen.

It happened in my first Newbie Game. NG 700 if you wish to check.

[Platypus_Dude]

Why is it strange?

I'd think you would want to be sure of what you're saying.

And I don't think "temporary" and "maybe temporary" are that different, meaning-wise.

You sounded sure that it was temporary and then you changed it to maybe temporary.

[Platypus_Dude]

I'm not going to be able to get a post until tomorrow because of my schedule today.

[Platypus_Dude]

then I'll crush him.

Just seems like an odd word choice to me. Any reason you chose 'crush' over 'hammer'?

I was hoping Alex would answer first, but since you're online, who should I investigate? It's a 1-shot day ability.

As others have said, go with your gut.

thought I can't imagine you are SANE..

I would imagine a 1-time investigation would be sane, otherwise it just hurts the town rather than help.

I'm still happy with my Josh vote. He hasn't done anything for me to unvote.

I'm going out, I will read the Alex and skitzer posts when I get back.

[Platypus_Dude]

I...just...did? what is your point here?

I've never heard the term, so I was wondering why you used it.

We can lynch camn this day phase. I only said I was going to vote for Josh because he's already in L-1 and we can find out is he, or ain't he [scum].

That's not really a good reason to lynch someone. Any other reasons you want to lynch him?

[Platypus_Dude]

EBWOP: I see I was too late? I guess I'll just have to wait for his flip.

[Platypus_Dude]

=/ R.P. McMurphy was a VT, which surprised me a bit.

I will most likely not be able to post or post a little in the next 3 days. And then I have finals starting on next Friday, so don't expect a lot from me anytime soon.

[Platypus_Dude]

The game's been abandoned.

I do wish to continue playing, but I understand if you don't think you can get someone who will understand the flavor.

[Platypus_Dude]

Everyone should wait for at least Meme's word before sending your role PM.

*lowers the glasses I just put on and stares at Alex*

[Platypus_Dude]

Sad that the game had to end. I haven't played in anything with that kind of 'special mechanics' before. We may have used a lynch or two before we found Crazy though.

I hope to play with you guys again sometime.
