Pokemon Battles 2 - Attack on Giratina [GAME OVER]

[Firebringer]

I do agree FB probably town here

My spidey senses are going crazy

[Firebringer]

this is pretty weak sauce but im kind of at the point where i just gonna townread players who replace out so im leaving math at town.
I mean not all replace outs are town but the longer this game goes on the more im like yeah i can see town not having fun here and leaving

Which paradoxically will lead to more replace outs to get townread but then my true and ultimate goal is to make this game the most replaced out game in history.

Which alisae has told me e doesn't approve of.

[Firebringer]

Norwegian replaced out of all their games.

yes and i know the reason for why.
I townread his slot before any replace outs though.

[Firebringer]

anytime shirou. you are going to be my anchor because you aren't a god but you're basically a god at townplay and also usually i end up try-harding which stresses me out and then i quit
i hope you aren't scum i guess I should be able to find another meme buddy in this player list if you are but still

shirou is town
welcome to the elite 6, yimmy

[Firebringer]

i really hate when you are trying to mislim me and you use the excuse of "it will help us gamesolve" b/c how the fuck am i supposed to defend myself from that

prohint: i cant

the defense is for u to solve

[Firebringer]

i have been majority of the game absence hence why i wanted a hydra partner, but mine flaked.

when u hydra with someone you should really be telling them ur intention for the hydra partner to do most of the posting in the slot.

also i hope that wasn't all the solving ur going to do

I'm p sure it was fucking clear in the sign up thread

anything else your majesty?

yeah can you grab me a soda when you get back

revisiting this
not gonna townread kitty replace out

[Firebringer]

Chandra i feel like u should be susing StD here.

For one StD has no paranoia on you at all.
Two he has no paranoia on you at all.
Yet your kind of just like meh to it all

i feel like chandra, as chandra, would play differently as scum. it's entirely a chandra thing based on what i know cephrir wants to accomplish as chandra, and not based on cephrir as cephrir. if cephrir were playing as cephrir, i would have a little more paranoia. i know this doesn't make a ton of sense, but it's enough to make me not worry.

How would scum!chandra be playing that ur not seeing.

[Firebringer]

don't take me out of pools
i like pools

[Firebringer]

But I’m suddenly feeling like I can’t trust anybody. Why are we hunting “outside” of the “Elite6” when scum is probably all up in that little group. It was a meme

Who is scum in that group.
I am not really gonna put up with subtle shade in the group cause i just see it as trying to undermine the group and not allow a townblock.
Which isn't helpful at all imo

Also isn't it weird for how long you been in this game and how few interactions you and me have.

[Firebringer]

FL isn't scum btw because he is much better at gaining thread control and manipulating people to vote where he wants when he is scum.
If you noticed in this game, he kind of sucks at both and is kind of directionless (not completely true but over emphasizing to make a point)
Indicates he is town.

[Firebringer]

gonna be a hot minute before we find 2 replacements.
if we do find replacements

[Firebringer]

Do i even want to engage with Italian

[Firebringer]

hey mala, did you get me a soda?

[Firebringer]

is that at me

[Firebringer]

the whole u will be sorry when i flip town is kind of a tired mafia trope
instead of focused on ur own potential misyeet if you just tried to solve the puzzle that is the game i think u would have a more enjoyable time.

u can't control other people misreading u that much. you can control ur effort to solve the puzzle
and then if u do get misyeeted and solve the puzzle you get bragging rights later. Instead of just complaining rights about getting misyeeted

but all this presupposes that mala is town complaining and not just lazy scum.
Which i find the argument of "ohh im way more solvey and engaged when im scum" to be very weak and superficial self defense.

[Firebringer]

the best defense against people calling u scum is usually you trying to solve the game so yeah more of that please

[Firebringer]

does anyone even TR Black??

I do

[Firebringer]

few criticisms for this game.

1) Don't do multiple phases when you design games that prolongs ability for players to play or interact. If ur going to do that, have a way for players to interact and stay engaged with the game. A private pt does nothing if all i do is actions that interact with mod.

I am so not invested in looking at this game during nights/twilight/ and just want to get into actually interacting with the players but this has been what? 4-5 days?

Snore.

2) Shortening giratina to 'tina' is a crime.

3) i hate my pokemon and i don't find any of the pokemon that have flipped all that appealing either.

[Firebringer]

even though shirou was a survivor im still considering that town so my elite 6 is still completely pure and i was never wrong.

i also find it very funny shirou got survivor and wanted to be lazy and then he almost slipped into try harding still even as a survivor

[Firebringer]

2) Shortening giratina to 'tina' is a crime.

I am so outraged by this im not going to even fight giratina because i just don't find "tina" that big of a threat anymore

Staying out of this event

[Firebringer]

we should probably try to eliminate scum or something at some point but i really think we should just do something else like talk about anime

[Firebringer]

Firebringer’s pushed little to no agenda, and even under the push from Pink Ball, I just kinda liked how they reacted. I liked the e6 once my Chandra scum read went away, and DD flipped town.

my agenda is to push all the responsibility of this game onto Chandra because i find his getting annoyed at this clown show funny and think him running the show is more entertaining.

So probably just gonna continue cheering him on while i watch.
If he is scum good for him on leading this clown show though

[Firebringer]

I am the leader of a city of bozos.

Which perhaps makes me the greatest clown of all.

^^^^^
Leader of the ELite 6

cheering for u bud

[Firebringer]

pretending like ur not in it with me smh

[Firebringer]

chandra did u find the scum yet

[Firebringer]

Always had a feeling she was tbh

[Firebringer]

i wonder if a std/chandra pair would at least feign suspicion of each other instead of doing whatever it is this is

[Firebringer]

by the way isn't someone supposed to be getting locked up by the scum
whats going on with that.

Why hasn't someone been sent to the shadow realm

[Firebringer]

The Mafia gain and must use this ability during the day: During the Day Phase, if Giratina is alive: Target 1 player; announce that they are been sent into the Distortion World. This cannot fail. They must fight Giratina, also they lose -3 DEF during this fight. During this night phase, this player cannot be targeted or perform actions.

im confused if this is supposed to be announcing to us but still participate in the talking and voting actually cause distortion realm i thought meant they would just not be interactabe for this game day

also i guess they have to do this at some point during the day but can happen at end? does that mean its more of a night action that happens during the day and effects are going into night

Idk man.

Want to see some shadow realm shenanigans

[Firebringer]

rereading it probably just means that scum pick it in the chat, we will not know who is being sent until someone reports it next day and we will be roleblocked/can't be targetted and shit if we are sent.

What a boring mechanic

[Firebringer]

VOTE: Meuh lets go chandra

[Firebringer]

VOTE: STD

would be willing to sheep chandra on me for the memes as well for the record

[Firebringer]

VOTE: Don't sheep me right now, I'm stumbling around in the dark

[Firebringer]

We need to stop being friends tbh.

We had a good time hanging out, but we have to find scum, so we gotta step on each other’s toes possibly.

you can't break up with me.
i break up with u

[Firebringer]

if E6 is going strong and scum are in the townreads and are likeable and such....
idk i find that a bit of a contradiction leaf of you saying we can still trust e6 but we gotta start beating each other up because scum are playing the social game of being too likeable.

also who do i beat up? Should i beat up wheme for killing math

or should i make fun of Chandra.

Maybe i take out a page from meuh handbook and declare i am meuh

[Firebringer]

i think that makes sense but i think a lot of people have been bickering with u here.
But i haven't found it ver useful for solving because it all seems personality based rather than alignment based fighting u

[Firebringer]

No one has objected to my Titus post, yet she has no votes. What gives?

you explicitly asked not to have people sheep u as u were wandering in the darkness.
So u being surprised pikachu that no one votes Titus is kind of silly

[Firebringer]

My friend im just a mindless sheep u expect me to provide THOUGHTS
u overestimate my intelligence

[Firebringer]

why not Titus, i thought pressure there is good?

[Firebringer]

VOTE: DGB

[Firebringer]

I didn’t realize there was pressure other than Chandra on Titus. Your last post made it look like you were uninterested

im interested in it, i am just not interested in moving the conversation forward.

[Firebringer]

i guess a better way of saying it is im interested in pressuring Titus because she isn't someone im like townlocking and i did feel earlier she was a bit sus but i don't have much to add to the conversation or any of these conversations cause im just deadset on being a mindless sheep

so i want to see where Chandra goes with this
Fine with voting DGb too, not Black right now

[Firebringer]

Mafia isn't really fun to me anymore

Have you tried shit posting more

[Firebringer]

Not up for elimming Black btw.
Could be willing to do it as a mercy out for this game if she is really not enjoying it that much.

[Firebringer]

why is chandra being portrayed as the leader here? is this a thing people agree with?

i mean he is my leader.

[Firebringer]

Not up for elimming Black btw.
Could be willing to do it as a mercy out for this game if she is really not enjoying it that much.

You are a sucker for some AtE, aren't ya

not townreading her for the AtE.
I am actually more willing to elim her because she hates this game. Not because i think she is more townie for doing it.

So pretty much the opposite

[Firebringer]

VOTE: Flavor Leaf

there we go.

You been discrediting me all game, I've been waiting for this.

Don't you think u get into these fights with townies all the time in the exact same manner and you continue to think it means ur onto something when really your just playing against someone who doesn't like your game approach.

[Firebringer]

like flavor i think you should factor in how someone might genuinely not like ur style and consider it NAI in how they react and respond in such a way you can pull out the parts that won't be useful for your hunting but you tend to just take it as it all means something to grander plan or conspiracy against you when often its just not.

Some things might just be a personality conflict.

[Firebringer]

Black is doing such a terrible job of convincing anyone that ur scum here.
It seems like she thinks ur leading town (or trying to to ur point) and she thinks its down the wrong path.

Like if this is a scum tactic. Its a fucking shit tactic.

[Firebringer]

What?

She is in no way making me question my read on you.

[Firebringer]

not saying u should be apologetic or not pressure black here.
But i don't think ur that good at recognizing the personality conflicts.

[Firebringer]

FB on 274/275 not only feels off but also feels like scum defending their partner so sure
VOTE: Black

Spicy take

[Firebringer]

VOTE: Titus

[Firebringer]

To clarify I think she might mention her health as scum, but when talking to Chandra she was using it as a way to get them off of their scumread, which I don't think Titus would do tbh. I could be wrong

keep the real life stuff seperate from game stuff.
ive seen scum players use their RL stuff as shields in very objectionable ways and thats why you just leave it as a separate thing.

[Firebringer]

We're not doing NM today. We've tried punting decisions twice now, and it has led to this miserable game state.

What does this mean, though, Chandra? Is he or isn't he scum in your eyes?

i have a hard time buying this is a legit question.
Do you think Chandra has a read on Not Mafia.

Look at Not Mafia iso.

Do you have a read on him? Like what are you expecting from Chandra here with a read on Not Mafia before you go asking this "wait is he scum or not?" because otherwise its just like....nothing.

[Firebringer]

and here i thought town would wake up that mafia clearly wanted a not mafia elim.

Well interesting anyways.

GG everyone

[Firebringer]

Cakez was the hero of the town

[Firebringer]

I refuse to acknowledge any pokemon outside of gen 1
