Penalty Box Mafia - Eagles. Game over. Scum wins (0-1)

[Shanba]

Hmm. Shanba, I know it seems like a snub, but I'm going to bench you and bring on a newer player, if that's ok. I don't want you on this early.

That's fine. I trust your judgement.

As a side note, I don't know my role yet.

[Shanba]

OK, I now have my role pm.

[Shanba]

The team is weakened, I would guess.

[Shanba]

I like the fact that killerbob completely contradicted himself inside one statement there .

Vote: MoS

because I can

[Shanba]

's interesting that my table isn't public information. Do those people on the ice know they are on the ice?

Well I can't comment because I'm not on the ice, but it might be beneficial for us not to know - it could be that scum have powers which depend on whether a player is on ice or not. If it becomes important at a certain point, a guaranteed protown player will still have the info, so there's little risk involved.

[quote="Venerable Mod]

There are six positions, Left Foreword, Center, Right Foreword, Left Defence, Right Defense and Goalie. There are two players for each position on a team, and players may be switched around to play other position, but won't be as good in that position.
[/quote]

And yet there are 11 players, because the coach cannot go on the ice.

Vote: Mod

for inconsistency <.<

[Shanba]

I actually like it as an idea. Better that we get everyone in the best positions, and no obvious bad consequences spring to mind.

[Shanba]

Ooh. That's cunning. I wonder how much we can get the esssential symmetry of the games to work in our favour?

[Shanba]

Hrm. We had some nice theory discussions going, but they've petered out. Loks like method 2 of starting the game will have to be applied - random bandwagonning.

Vote: killerbob

WITH ME!

[Shanba]

So. Srsly, why is everyone not voting Killerbob?

[Shanba]

See, I reckon that's more likely to be a scum doing it to Oman than Oman doing it.

[Shanba]

Yes, that would prove it Oman, though I'm not sure it was wise to do it again - repeated penalties may have worsening effects.

[Shanba]

personally, I think killerbob is an essentil part of every healthy day 1 lynch.

[Shanba]

It's the unhappy smiley.

[Shanba]

Oman, stop doing that. It's possible that multiple penalties have much worse consequences than single penalties. It could be, for example, that too many penalties leads to a modkill or something (I'm not really familiar with the rules of hockey, but you get what I'm getting at)

[Shanba]

explain?

[Shanba]

^_o

good luck with that interpretation. I'm going off the basis that in most sports I know repeated fouls can lead to sendings off, harsher penalties, etc.

[Shanba]

I think I know it, assuming penalties can only be comitted by people on the ice - it's sandwiching a post between two of yours.

[Shanba]

Hm, you're right - it's just smashing is the same penalty Oman was called for, and I can't see any other links between the three penalties.

[Shanba]

that's cool. Also, it answers the question of whether a lineup can be private or not.

[Shanba]

he wants you to be penalty boxed, I think, though I don't know why...

[Shanba]

Eh. There's actually a certain logic behind it. I'd rather their team was picking up the penalties than ours.

[Shanba]

>.<

Srsly. Stop giving away penalties. Primate, can you take these two off the ice?

[Shanba]

prob cause you're in goal

[Shanba]

Except you... haven't. That was smashing.

Unvote vote Oman

Once was ok. Twice I could see the logic behind. The ninth time is when it became annoying.

[Shanba]

Fool me nce, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

[Shanba]

Brutally Murder: Oman

Primate, replace him on the ice then we lynch him, kk?

[Shanba]

There is something that worries me before we all rush to lynch him, which is why I want Primate to move him off the ice. If lynch a player who is on the ice, won't be weakening our team compared to the opposition? As the winners are determined by the goals scored, we can't really afford to let the opposition score by hastily lynching.

Mod: Can we have a PrimProd?

[Shanba]

...

right. That complicates things. Still, I think lynching Oman is worth it. It may be that lynching scum inherently strengthens our team and thus gives us a goal anyway.

[Shanba]

Actually, I'm fairly sure you're already dead, as I unvoted then voted you last page which the mod seems to have missed.

[Shanba]

Post 279

Except you... haven't. That was smashing.

Unvote vote Oman

Once was ok. Twice I could see the logic behind. The ninth time is when it became annoying.

[Shanba]

Unless you're penalising my lack of colon.

[Shanba]

True. 'Twas a fairly unanimous decision.

[Shanba]

I think at the very least as town you'd have been more careful about giving away penalties when you weren't testing.

But this is moot now.

[Shanba]

pretty sure we need a killerbob replacement.

[Shanba]

I am seriously pissed that we conceded. Hopefully, though, having lynched a scum will put is in better shape in future.

Now is the time where we should be discussing whether it's worth claiming positions in order to have people in the correct place tomorrow.

[Shanba]

Prefer Flameaxe off the ice if at all possible, as even if he is town he's a liability. Panzerjager needs prodding, as does TVZ. Killerbob needs replacing, as does Gatorguy. CPE needs lynching.

[Shanba]

*prodded*

Urm. This is another of thos games I'mma have to reread, I suspect.

[Shanba]

Gah.

I want to vote TVZ.

[Shanba]

Gah.

I want to vote TVZ.

Then why aren't you?

Because he's on the ice.

[Shanba]

Jdodge is making more sense than Flameaxe. Gogo baseless statements!

TVZ:

Sorry about my absence guys-i only just got back from a week's holiday.

I have no idea. I guess it would be nice if one perosn from each position could claim. As in, take positions one by one and find one person to claim, while others stay silent.

Again, I don't really understand the game dynamics, but it seems probable that having the right people in the right positions helps us.

Quickly reading, i don't agree with this post. Could well be a scum slip-up in my opinion.

Vote: Lowell

I actually thought that was an OK post. What didn't you agree with from it and what do you think he slipped up regarding?

I could've sworn i responded to this last time i was on. Put simply, i'm not sure whether that comment corresponds to recieving the town role pm.

I'm not convinced by Masterminds plan either. Primate's responses made alot of sense, except the bit about 'if i think someone could be scum, you must do as i say'. Whilst of course, as Captain, we know you are on our side, that doesn't necessarily mean you are always right. So, whilst we should take your opinion into account, i don't think just going along with whatever you say is a great way to play the game. But maybe that's just me.

I dislike this post, and the post contained within. I think his Lowell vote is beyond weak on the weakness scale.

It seems pretty clear that by breaking that rule, there is one punishment. Certainly there is nothing to indicate otherwise. Hence, i view your post as an attempt to look sympathetic to the town's cause, by feigning concern over Oman's welfare.

I have this post too, and the post that precedes it. I don't feel he's scumhunting as much as target hunting. I'm not sure that makes much sense, but hey.

Goalie: Lowell
Right Back:Panzer
Left Back: TVZ
Centre: CPE
Right Forward: Shanba
Left Forward: Jdodge

dang...
You put Lowell in goal? and me in Defence? :shock:

I realise i havent been here for a while. By the look of it, we lynched scum (but this is not absolutely certain) and he is now 'in the penalty box', which im not sure about the meaning of...

Anyway, i agree with Lowell about Flameaxe. This game cant be as easy as to have all the scum so blatantly trying to rack up penalties. Of course, its pretty obvious to me why Lowell is defending Flameaxe-distancing from a probable mislynch.

Vote: Lowell

Also, Primate, please kick this guy off the ice if atall possible. Or at least move him somewhere where we arent totally reliant on him.

Finally, i think we can sure that us letting in a goal was nothing to do with the lynch. I expect it could be something related to our formation, or general amount of penalties during the day. Collateral damage by any chance?

I don't think this post is internally consistent, or makes any sense - and his earlier vote of Flameaxe is weak too.

Does 'scum killing mode' look any different to 'oh my scumbuddy is being lynched busbusbusbus' mode in any way?

lol i like this post, because it raises a valid point. I dont like the way Mastermind is trying to use the Oman lynch as proof of his innocence, when frankly he was a total liability, and was always going to be taking an early shower.

Post 385 is a definite mark against his name.

I'm still happy with my vote for the moment, but

FoS: Mastermind

I absolutely detest this post.

Why the TVZ hate?

They're just jealous i guess. Lowell is the Mafioso we should off today.

And I don't like this one much either.

Those were just the posts that gave me bad gut feelings. I can elaborate if needed on any points.

[Shanba]

oh fudge it

I don't care whether he's on the ice or not at this point, but frankly I just want to put him on ice.

Vote: TVZ

[Shanba]

Hi people.

Is this game dead too?

[Shanba]

This game needs some replacements. Killerbob's last post was in October. I still think you should vote zorg, but cpe is ok too. Eh.

[Shanba]

Three people playing makes it hard to post when trying to avoid sandwiches, sorry Lowell, you couldn't post while I hadn't, I guess.

[Shanba]

Eh, you had an exceptionally flakey group.

I'll be honest here. I'm not really sure what to do.

[Shanba]

oh great.

Does anyone have any good ideas?

[Shanba]

Unvote Vote: Gatorguy

Apathy votes

[Shanba]

Coach, you got a lineout?

[Shanba]

Zorg, what were the Hawk's response to the problems we had with mass claiming? We discussed this as well on Day 1, but came to the decision that it would be bad to mass claim, because it would help the scum. What reason did they have that was different from our conclusion?

And yes, I'm too lazy to look it up myself. Sorry.

IIRC we were worried that claiming positions would make it easier for scum to screw with our lineout by removing players from certain positions etc. However, scum have no nightkill and have so far failed to have an impact on the Hawks.

I think we should massclaim before we decide positions. We're a goal down and we need to start scoring if we want to have a chance. We should be at an advantage, with one scum down, but something else must be preventing that advantage having an effect. My guess would be our lineout.

[Shanba]

That said, there's no problem saying who we're comfortable with on the ice.

Lowell I am confident in. MoS I am more or less confident in. Myself I know am town. Flameaxe I'd be worried would screw us even as town. TVZ I am not happy with. CPE I am unhappy with. Jdodge is lurking like a mofo, but I guess I'd be

ok

with him. killerbob I'd be distinctly uncomfortable with. Panzer has one post -_-

Now why would I do that?!

Because your play this game has not exactly inspired me with confidence -_-

[Shanba]

Flameaxe, I don't give a shit. Wake up and smell the coffee. You've done fuckall that's useful this game. Cpe, you too. If you don't start saying something useful, hell, even just pressuring someone for no real reason, I will assume you're scum.

Looking back, that wagon on Gatorguy seems really uncanny. 5 people posting, 3 posting regularly and somehow we get a wagon of 6?

[Shanba]

all of those except Jdodge.

[Shanba]

I.

Hate.

This.

Game.


MoS, what scumtell was that?

Vote creampuffeater

I don't give a shit about your penalties, to be frank. I've played one game with you before (Blue Jam) and you where nowhere near as useless as you are here. If you're town, I have serious issues with your play, if you're scum, then you don't deserve to win. Die. DIE.

[Shanba]

Well, the hawks have lynched. That means you have 24 hours to lynch of go no lynch.

Antsy? The hawks just lynched (according to the last post). This would mean that once Foolster gets it updated, we will have 24 hours. This is one of those good reasons to rush something, as if we don't, we get nowhere.

Vote: MoS

for lulz and him being stupid.

We haven't posted a lineup yet. We haven't massclaimed yet. We've done fuck all, because no one in our game seems inclined to do anything except wagon for luls.

I hate this game. I really, really do.

[Shanba]

I can't *censored* believe *censored* swearing is a *censored* penalty. That's so *censored* *censored*, I'm actually flabbergasted. I *censored* hate this *censored* game so *censored* much...

*censored*

Vote: creampuffeater

Let's lynch a *censored* scum, k? *censored*.

[Shanba]

How the *censored* are we supposed to play this *censored* game if half the town doesn't feel like *censored* playing?

Can we have prods/replacements before we're foreced to our next 24h lynch please? I don't really feel that this game is winnable with all our inactives, let alone the lurkers.

[Shanba]

ok...

that's seriously frustrating. I'm still of the opinion we should massclaim.

[Shanba]

defensive right wing

Seeing as we're effectively back on day 1 again, we should consider (painful as it is) having a second random wagon stage.

[Shanba]

wtf!? you put me in GOAL?
We are so screwed... lol

Well maybe you should have *censored* claimed, then.

[Shanba]

Much as I appreciate you trying, don't presently believe it's possible to figure out alignments from posting.

Eh? I thought we'd simply agreed that it was impossible to learn anything from the first lot of pages, not that anything written after the error should be discounted.

[Shanba]

We might as well put Shanba on for MoS. For all we know Foolster made MoS the scum again during the "random" draw.

Also, he could have made me scum during the random draw... That's what, you know, random, means.

[Shanba]

Vote: No Lynch

I can roll w/ that.

If we were going to lynch someone, we should lynch someone we have a double for.

[Shanba]

1) I don't trust you.
2) I wanted both Shanba and MoS on the Ice.

Not shutting you down just saying it how I see it. The other option is obviously to make the back lineup BBM + Shanba. How much difference do you think it will make to have MoS/JDodge playing on the opposite side?

Are you aware, yeah, that the first few days are useless? Because although I feel I played well enough in those days to be considered town, since the effective reset, I've done fuck all...

[Shanba]

Happy Birthday, btw.
