Its not scummy to do this as I have a meta of always voting for mods, and therefor I am allowed.

No one else is allowed without scrutiny from me because I shall hide behind my meta.
No this is obviously not a logical fallacy.

DO AS I SAY NOT AS I DO.

[SocioPath]

I meant what I said, Maemuki.

Vote: Maemuki

Also keep in mind there are 35 entities in this game, not just 25 or 27.

Um, ok.

ISO Sociopath and check his last post carefully.

Ok, I did...now what?

Also another

Vote: Tarhalindur

for good measure.

[SocioPath]

Tarhalindur must be lynched. MMM has anti-town wincon.

I say with a response like this, we give the Mao/Tar wagons the finger and go for UK, the co-mod.

[SocioPath]

In the spirit of the game I think they should be seen as four different people.

[SocioPath]

This might be amusing.

[SocioPath]

I really hope that means what I think it means.

[SocioPath]

Anti-Death-Miller sounds like an amusing role.
Appears town but it really is scum?

[SocioPath]

No really.

InScumshallibe is scum.

Since you guys are too chicken to get down to the business of lynching the uber-evil Chairman Mao. We might as well lynch scum.

Oh ok.

Vote: inHimshallibe

[SocioPath]

Grab: Widgy

[SocioPath]

If I die due to the previous action, town needs to kill Haylen, ani, and Phate.

[SocioPath]

Imagine: scum drops an item that kills upon pick up (or some derivative of such), lots of people 'attempt' to make a grab for it by typing ASDJASD: Widgy, only one out of loop is town, actually grabs the item, and SOMEHOW STRANGELY DIES.

[SocioPath]

I highly doubt that ani is town in that he is like an item pinata.

Ani dies.
Items everywhere.
Incriminating to everyone that grabs them.
Scum have a field day in the massive arms race of confusion.

[SocioPath]

Its a Tar game, so modkill not likely.

I MEAN THE RULES DON'T SAY YOU CANT!

7) You believe that you may die and that Haylz, Ani, and I, but not Kairyuu, are scum?

Also, Phate is much more worried about here about who I suspect than about whether or not what I did was actually logical.
Phate is definitely scum.

[SocioPath]

Also I'm pretty sure ani just claimed SK.

[SocioPath]

Its a Tar game. A modkill is pretty much a sure thing.

Additionally, the rules are still in effect, you just can't see them.

Tar has been working on, and making Role PMs in ways that he has stated, and allowed, in the past, that players can quote their "role PMs" word for word.

Whether or not that is allowed here, well, I'll leave that question to the mind screwers.

[SocioPath]

Also keep in mind that Tar gives 3rd parties, SKs or not, fakeclaims.

[SocioPath]

Preview Edit: and an OMGUS from SocioPath! Unsurprised.

That is cute.
When in reality, it was you that OMGUS'd me.
The town isn't as stupid as you'd like to think it is.

[SocioPath]

Oh wow. Just noticed the confession. Called it.

Anyone who read his win conditioned "called it."

[SocioPath]

(Or Kamina Glasses.)

Don't take the bait.



Also, in other news, it should be noted that Haylen's "item" was obviously a red herring.

Also Phate is still scum.

[SocioPath]

Guys, I get to ask a question every 300 posts about the setup. Is there anything in particular that you guys would like to know?

Do you get an answer that could be trusted with that question?

[SocioPath]

Well, with Mae acting the way she is, and with this handy tidbit:

Inside Information

- You know that Kamina glasses have a mechanical effect on the game, that at least one factional ability in the game is related to Kamina glasses, and that players can be forced to wear Kamina glasses in their avatars.

You should ask which faction is in reference there.
Or if it is a yes or no, ask if the faction is pro-town.

I'll leave the phasing to you.
Be sure to word it so you don't get a dodgy answer.

I think this would be the best question to ask at this time.

[SocioPath]

Funny that people listen to that CJ guy but not me.

Vote: Maemuki

[SocioPath]

Wait a minute. Raider's ISO is really scummy~!

Care to explain how? I'm simply pointing out aspects that most people may not yet understand.

This post is relevant to my interests.

[SocioPath]

Vote: DTM

Because cleaning up cult is better than lancing neutrals.

[SocioPath]

I'd still vote Phate as he is still scum.

[SocioPath]

Oh, we really oughtn't worry about Haylen right now.

That certainly isn't ominous.

[SocioPath]

Oh, we really oughtn't worry about Haylen right now.

That certainly isn't ominous.

And this contributes to discussion how?

And this contributes to discussion how?

[SocioPath]

Don't blow me off. I asked first.

It certainly outed you, didn't it?

[SocioPath]

No, it did not out me. Your comment had no relevance to my alignment or anybody else's. My question contributes to discussion by getting you to react to your really taking us nowhere. I certainly took this game somewhere with my comment, did I not?

And now the scum squirms.

[SocioPath]

Troll or not, I still have a vote.

[SocioPath]

It should be obvious at this point, Kairyuu.

I just hope FJ means a 'win' of the game for town, and not just a 'win' in general.

[SocioPath]

That would require me to have been paying close attention recently.

No, not even recently.
Just...at all.

[SocioPath]

Eff Jaaaaaaaaaay, they are taunting me! D:

So can I just state the obvious?

[SocioPath]

Eff Jaaaaaaaaaay, they are taunting me! D:

So can I just state the obvious?

No. I don't know if you know what I know and I don't want speculation. I want to win this game and that requires Tar to respond to me. When he does then I can finally put my plan into motion. And most likely the first thing we're doing is killing Plum unless he responds to me asap.

Well I didn't mean role specifics, I meant as to how the game functions in general.

Because some people haven't been paying attention and do not know how this game works.




THAT IS TO SAY THIS GAME WORKS? A MIND SCREW? OH NOES.

[SocioPath]

My Wheel of Fate is Turning has spit out the following numbers: 2 (Day 1), 4 (Day 2), 0 (Day 3). No idea what that's all about.

If this is what I think it is, this is amazing.

[SocioPath]

I suppose so, I was kind of hoping finding flavor info of the people before such from your results so see if it matched up.

But everyone has been saying that everything has been shifted 2.
Then people were confused, saying they didn't know where things were going.
Then people seem to, while trying for the shift of 2, actually target the person they were aimed at.

2
4
0

Those numbers could very well mean the shifting player targets.

[SocioPath]

Socio is a genius. That makes a lot of sense.

Or perhaps I'm talking out of my ass. Some would say that sounds likely.

[SocioPath]

Were you right about what Kinetic was talking about?

That the game is pretty much based solely around post counts?
And that virtually every active role in this game is activated based on post counts?
Including scum kills so spamming or stalling are both a double edged sword?
And that the account had a powerful ability they had been waiting to use?
Hence the posting splurge to get to 1350?
And then the wait and see?
And that when someone tells you not to post anything until they figure something out they mean LITERALLY DO NOT POST ANYTHING?

Or were you referring to something else?

[SocioPath]

Can we finish lynching Coug now please?

If I get lynched today, one of you that hasn't explained your vote on me

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH

CJ should hop on in here to confirm.

[SocioPath]

Am I willing to help town, even if I don't win? YES

3rd Party WHO IS WILLING TO HELP YOU EVEN IF HE DOESN'T WIN.

[SocioPath]

I have been defending myself this whole game, and have done nothing to help scum, so that's why I haven't been able to do anything.

Shut up.

Wed Apr 07, 2010 6:41 pm

Ani is the play for today.
Quickly and succinctly is to be preferred.

[SocioPath]

I got mafia yesterday, I'm content with that for now.

What I'm NOT content with is this pity party ani is forming for himself, bawwwing about how this game is being meaning and unfair to him and took his lunch money and made fun of his haircut and and and...

[SocioPath]

I don't NEED to prove anything to want him dead.

[SocioPath]

Fun stuff.

[SocioPath]

I seriously think SC is a death miller. His actions = no sense.

This quote = no sense.

[SocioPath]

@Socio: Reason for the avatar switch please, and implications. Failure to comply will result in your swift death due to cult suspicions.

Forced upon me.
As was the post it happened in.

No new info gathered from it.
Just told essentially: DO THIS OR REDACTED WILL HAPPEN.
But since its Tar's avatar specifically, its safe to say it doesn't have to do with Mae, as I originally thought, and that it would have become Tar's avatar regardless of glasses in it or not.

[SocioPath]

Lynch me.

This I can agree with.

Vote: raider

[SocioPath]

I wish I was a cool kid with a million votes, because they would all be on raider.

That means Phayte is probably Memetic scum.

Yes, Phate is still scum.
I would still lynch him without question.

Unvote
Vote: Phate

[SocioPath]

More Phate votes needed ITT.

[SocioPath]

I am by proxy.
I'm certainly not CONFIRMED but if you noticed, the super team has nicely followed my lead so far.
Do you need COBALT to come in here and lay down the landfill of votes before you feel motivated to listen?

I mean seriously, questioning me at THIS point is just silly.

[SocioPath]

Hey SocioPath. Gryffindor power.

I know what that means, but I wish I knew what it means, if you know what I mean.

[SocioPath]

In a game this large, I am not sure what that means.

I think Ani's the next lynch after Flave.

[SocioPath]

Win or lose, I still get my being back.
No more silly locations or avatars for me!
That is what truly counts here.

Although I did find amusement in being called DTM on many occasions.

[SocioPath]

OH. SO IT WAS YOOOU.
YOU SIT THERE WITH A SMUG LOOK ON YOUR FACE WHILE IM IN GAMES YOU MOD.
OR GAMES WHERE IM SCUM WITH YOU.
AND EVERYONE GETS CONFUSED.
AND YOU DONT CARE AT ALL.

AND LOW AND BEHOLD IT WAS YOU ALL ALONG?
HOW COLD.

[SocioPath]

So, wait, town lost? How? It was three against one! I dun get it.

It's simple really.

These words should never be used in a Tar game.

Dry-fit had four votes (would become five if he posted at the right time), two active kills (including a reusable factional kill), and 1-shot lynch immunity.

At the time of game victory, town controlled three votes (a fourth would come online when Kairyuu rezzed at post 2300, but by that point the game should have been over).

Maybe the confusion came from how the ability said it worked:

Multivote

- You gain 1 vote for each point you have, to a maximum number of votes equal to one less than the total number of votes controlled by non-Outsider players.

Maybe it was thought that "one less than total" meant that they would never have a majority, and that as fewer players remained, in turn, would cause fewer votes to be controlled.

Cause if Dry-Fit kept losing votes to keep to 1 less than majority, he would still be lynchable until the very end, where he just uses his kills.
