Imaginality: I think the red is just person with the most votes. Some mods do this. Also, person with the most votes is the lynch in case we go to deadline.

As for smokes, I think he might be searching for a specific character, or maybe it involves night actions, but, sure, why not, wouldn't hurt to try. I have nothing to do with tobacco or cigarettes, role-wise, so this probably will accomplish nothing.

Your vote hopping honestly made me not take your vote seriously. You had just unvoted someone because they didn't react, so what reason would I have to react? Especially when you give no reasons for your vote. It just seemed like another hollow vote that you'd casually drop in a post or two.

In the future, if you want a reaction, how about giving some reasons and something to actually react to?

I'd rather have a reaction before I state my reasons day 1. Ignoring me doesn't make me happy, so as far as I'm concerned, Iron Man isn't off the hook (btw "I was bored" is not a valid roleclaim reason). A reasonless earnest vote (my vote on Iron Man should have indicated I was done with RVS) should tip on off to the fact that some reaction is warranted. Especially since after one of the vote counts I asked for your comments on my vote and received none.

You voted me with no stated reason. Someone else voted me and you say "OH yes, I'm voting her too, and notice how she hasn't responded, confirmage".
This makes me think you weren't so interested in my reaction or Ironman's reaction, you were interested in town's reaction. It looks so much less scummy when you are the one that STARTED a bandwagon than if you just hop on in the middle or near the end, right? Convenient, just keep hopping around with your votes until someone else votes along with you and then confirm your vote.

Your reasons still suck. Also, this is a false assertion. If you go back into the thread a little, before Elvis calls you out on your craplogic, you will find this post:

I also don't like how fast this wagon on Darla is growing. I would like to hear her answer my question. I also don't think I'm going to believe Spyrex's claim right away. (Honestly, Darla's actions seem congruent...the French don't actually answer Arthur's questions...don't know if I believe her though.)

We actually don't know if scum don't have safeclaims. In Mini 566, Thesp didn't use his safeclaim because he wasn't sure how safe it actually was. So even if scum have safe claims, they can always choose to attempt another claim

It's safe because no one has the role. But there may be complications. In the example I cited, Thesp didn't use it because his safeclaim (Green Lantern) was under mind control from his actual role. He did not know how obvious his real role would be to determine from his safe claim. I used my safeclaim in that game just fine, though my safe claim was in the same circumstances. Also, in that case, the PMs didn't make it 100% explicit that our safe claims were totally safe. So I'm not assuming anything about safe claims yet until either Darla or Spyrex is dead.

don't like Iron Man's vote. "I'm too lazy to read or answer for my previous wagon jumping, but I'm going to jump on this wagon too" While Darla is the better lynch informationwise, I'm just itching to vote for him. Not going to vote for Darla yet, want this day to go on a bit longer. Actually, I'm really worried that both Spyrex and Darla are scum, and one is taking the fall for the other to get to end game. Or, scum from two different factions given the same safeclaim.

Quite a lot of MP charachters are not unique to one sketch, even some one the more well known ones (eg. Mr.Praline, the dead parrot guy). If that's your only reason for not believing the claim, then it's not a very good one.

Other reasons: hes not playing, hes not completing his half-claim, hes opportunistically wagon hopping, no one asked him to claim. Now you give me a reason to believe him.

Congrats on making us waste 7 pages on a pointless quest to discover your role that only really gave an advantage to the scum by letting them know a town role (assuming you're not scum yourself, which wouldn't be too far-fetched considering you led us all on a wild goose chase for no good reason).

My answer: There is a Monty Python Movie Mafia Team. I feel this makes sense, I can't think of many groups of people who would have reason to start killing Flying Circus charachters, but the flavour may be that the movie charachters may be sick of Flying Circus charachters stealing part of the MP limelight, especially since MP discontinued the Flying Circus, and THEN went onto making movies. The movie charachters may feel the Flying Circus should be killed off because it is unfairly still stealing MP limelight even though it has been discontinued, so they may feel it is time to finish them off. Further evidence of this is that if this is true, and SpyreX is really the French Taunter and is in such a scumgroup, he will never be counterclaimed because he has that role.

I don't like this assumption. We won't know anything without dead scum.

I was toying with the idea of getting Darla to get herself modkilled for rulebreaking (Regardless of whether this would be the post restriction or not) but the mod's answer makes me think that if we engineer a modkill, he'd probably end the day, which would not be the great.

I'm perfectly willing to vote Darla, but I'm not going to and I ask no one else does until Iron Man claims.

I doubt she's a Jester. She wouldnt have known there would be a French Taunter in the game to counterclaim her. You could, however, be one of those targetting roles that are generally townie but need to get one specific person killed.

Mirth · Post Post #520 (isolation #90) » Tue Jul 15, 2008 7:01 am

Thank you Spyrex for taking me *completely out of context.* My comments in bold.

SpyreX wrote: 12. Accuses Imagine of faking a PR (Joking?)
Not joking. I remembered seeing the Bruce PM in the Worst Roles thread. Couldn't remember who posted it. Also remembered seeing Imaginality in said thread.

15. Shows, from a different thread, Imagines probable PM (Blah)
19. Asks more about Imagine's flavor.
22. Votes for Iron Man (4th Vote)
26. Votes for Strap because Iron Man didn't react.
34. Tempted to for for Chen for the "I'm confused" card (Understandable, but why not vote?)
Because I wanted to hear from Strapp who was bloody ignoring me

36. Says a faked role will not be counterclaimed (this is important).
No, I said "I highly doubt even a faked role would be counterclaimed" How is this important exactly? One would assume that were scum going to fake claim theyd claim something obscure.

48. Votes for Chenshi, finally.
57. Doesn't like the speed about on Luigi
Especially I brought up the possible faked PR issue and wanted him to answer if it was. The rest of y'all jumped on it.

60. Says Darla is a French Guard (this is 4 hours BEFORE Darla finally claims)
Actually if you were paying attention, in post 58 I said that if her post restriction was what I thought it was, I demand to see the lord of the castle and the grail since Darla's breadcrumbs were glow in the dark. Her response confirmed that she was in fact claiming French Taunter even before she officially claimed

62. Says she's not going to believe my claim right away.
Sooooo I'm suspicious for not believing you right away? how is this a good reason?

64. Says almost all her posts have the French AND its too obvious a role to fake (says its too iconic)
It is. If scum is going to fake claim, theyre going to claim something not immediately recognizable by everyone.

65. Entertains the ideas of multiple taunters.
66. Asks what if we're both scum. Makes the statement: One dead as scum confirms the other.
This is conjecture. Why do you find this suspicious?

67. Mentions we dont know if the scum have safeclaims (obviously)
Not obviously since you kept saying you know cum don't have fake claims

75. Mentions wanting Darla to break her restriction.
76. In response to my FoS about her suggesting breaking restriction doubts the mod has different penalties for different players.
Reasonable doubt

86. Suggests its good of Darla modkills herself and the day doesn't end.
It is. Darla dies, we save a lynch, and can use that lynch on someone else. Like Iron Man.

87. Says she is willing to vote, but is waiting for the Claim.
89. Says she doubts a jester, but suggests I could be a lyncher.
90. Suggests if its a fakeclaim why not go for one better known.
Again, out of context. If Darla is a Jester trying to get herself killed and not scum trying to survive, she'd need to go for something that is really really really obvious. While French Taunter is far more iconic than something like Mr. Hilter, he's no where near as iconic as Dead Parrot Guy.

91. Asks poker what he thinks of Iron Man.

The things that bother me about this whole deal:
1.) Mirth has had a fixation with the PR's in general; moreso than anyone else.
2.) Although I agree, Mirth has pushed and pushed for Ironman's claim. There's been a fixation there.

I think he's the single scummiest person here. Darla is primarily scummy because you counterclaimed her, he is scummy of his own accord.

3.) Has a very high noise-to-signal ratio this game.
4.) Really, hasn't built a case.

On whom do you wish me to build a case? I think I've been pretty clear in my Iron Man hate. I do not see lynching him as smarter than lynching Darla.

5.) The early votejumping also seems odd.

I always vote jump day 1. It is what day 1 is for. Why are you attempting to make an issue out of this

6.) The whole DBE scenario:
a.) Mirth, before DBE claimed, claimed the French Guard for her.

See Above

b.) She says that, with all of the roles in MP, a faked role will not be counterclaimed.

I did not say that. Again, see above

c.) 64 and 90 are in direct opposition with each other (Taunter wouldn't be faked because it is too iconic, Taunter wouldn't be faked because it isn't iconic enough)

Again, you are twisting my words around, see above

d.) Pushing for the modkill. I really, in retrospect, do not like this. It's not how mafia should be played AND, of course, in that unlikely scenario I'm

wrong and we're both actually Taunters if the day doesn't end that'd probably be two Town power roles gone before night 1. Who does that benefit the most?

Except I'm not pushing for a modkill. I'm weighing whether a modkill would be a good play. You yourself don't believe there are two taunters, this argument rings hollow

e.) Makes the same claim Luigi does earlier: we are both scum in a gambit and if one turns up scum both should be lynched (I've talked about this enough)

I have not made this claim. Please show me where I made it. I suggested that one dead scum confirms the other as town, but I did not say anywhere you both should be lynched

f.) Mostly ignores the arguments (mostly by me) showing the myraid of differences in DBE's restrictions and punishments versus the other PR players.

What is there to comment on? Darla has been counterclaimed. Two Taunters are not likely. I'm not going to beat the dead horse anymore. I don't like how Darla centric this game is with plenty of other people acting scummy.

g.) Says she's willing to lynch Darla - however, and with everything else this bothers me, doesn't really give the exact reasons and, ultimately, doesn't say its because she thinks DBE is scum (alluding to the both of us scum strategy).

I never said this. You are putting words in my mouth. I am willing to lynch Darla because I do think one of you is scum.

h.) Suggests I'm lyncher - again, pushing for a lynch on me tomorrow?

Yes, I suggested this. Just like you suggested Darla is a Jester. Both of these are far fetched and ridiculous. Even though you are clearly twisting my words around, I don't actually want you lynched tomorrow unless Darla comes up town.

Ok, maybe I'm reading too much into it, but the fact both LG and Mirth have ignored what, to me, feels like the Razor in this case bothers me. The fact that both have said, outright, if I am right then I am scum and should be lynched,

really

bothers me.

Again, I DID NOT SAY THIS. I said one dead scum confirms the other. As town. Learn to read.

Again, I am not suggesting either Mirth or LG (or Chen) for lynches today. Its got to be DBE. I dont like this plan they have for tomorrow.

What plan? Where did I ever suggest lynching you if Darla came up scum? No where.

Of course its not because you didn't believe ME. That, implicitly, means that you DO believe DBE's claim (else it would be I dont know who to believe, or I don't believe either of them, etc).

Closer to I dont know who to believe.

64. Says almost all her posts have the French AND its too obvious a role to fake (says its too iconic) It is.
If scum is going to fake claim, theyre going to claim something not immediately recognizable by everyone.
Possibly. However, part of this isn't the issue of the fake claim - it is you're giving credence again to DBE telling the truth and me being the liar or there being 2 taunters. Considering how this is going, it bothers me.

Except I'm not taking a position here. You must concede that scum would have to be pretty dumb to claim something that is not obscure in a closed flavored set up. I don't like assuming scum are dumb.

66. Asks what if we're both scum. Makes the statement: One dead as scum confirms the other.
This is conjecture. Why do you find this suspicious?
I misread this (I blame Luigi). I read it as one dead as scum confirms the other (as scum)

Fine.

2.) Although I agree, Mirth has pushed and pushed for Ironman's claim. There's been a fixation there.
I think he's the single scummiest person here. Darla is primarily scummy because you counterclaimed her, he is scummy of his own accord.
You see nothing scummy in DBE's play aside from me counterclaiming her? I'm not arguing the IM point (his play has been atrocious) but I've said that DBE has had some scummy behavior most of this game.

Darla is mildly scum if not for the counterclaim. She had not been posting content, yes, but her lack of content was surely not as outstanding as Chenhsi's lack of content. Were it not for the counterclaim I would not even be considering her as a day 1 lynch. Not saying she's been playing well, just generally not poorly enough to really stand out much day 1. (Iron Man, Chenhsi, and Killa Seven are doing that)

67. Mentions we dont know if the scum have safeclaims (obviously)
Not obviously since you kept saying you know cum don't have fake claims
My obviously was supposed to be on the fact we dont know. Obviously we dont, only they would.

I know what your obviously meant. My point here is that you have not been acting like we don't know. You have been asserting they don't. Unlike you, I don't think a dead scum Darla would prove anything one way or the other about safe claims.

86. Suggests its good of Darla modkills herself and the day doesn't end.
It is. Darla dies, we save a lynch, and can use that lynch on someone else. Like Iron Man.
This one I'm not going to budge on. Asking to have someone modkill themselves is never a good idea. On top of it, I honestly feel it is very scummy behavior:

I feel the following statements are very true:
1.) Scum are, individually, more important for the scum's success than townies are because there are fewer of them.
2.) Scum are, definitely, going to want to obfuscate and keep information hidden from the town.
3.) Scum are not going to help the town.

Therefore, in requesting for a player to modkill themselves:
1.) They have to be willing to sacrifice themselves to help the town.

Thus, ultimately, only a townie will actively modkill themselves. Scum have no reason to give the town an extra lynch between cycles.

So, in asking for a modkill, you are presenting a situation where only a townie will do it. Also, it doesn't serve as a decent gambit because there are many reasons why a townie wouldn't do it as well. Modkills, ultimately, benefit the scum.

I disagree with you here. Part of it is a test. If this was the plan we followed, and Darla refused to be modkilled, she would be lynched anyway, so there would be no loss. Since Darla would be lynched anyway, a modkill even if Darla turned up town would save us a night phase (thus less dead townies from scum kills) because we wouldn't have to wait for the scum to take their turn to kill before lynching again. If Darla is to die anyway, which seems to be the case it is best for her to die in a manner that benefits town more, that is giving the town an extra lynch. However this matter is void because the mod would probably go into night if we forced a modkill. In that case it would be worse than a lynch.

90. Suggests if its a fakeclaim why not go for one better known. Again, out of context.
If Darla is a Jester trying to get herself killed and not scum trying to survive, she'd need to go for something that is really really really obvious. While French Taunter is far more iconic than something like Mr. Hilter, he's no where near as iconic as Dead Parrot Guy.

On a fundamental level, you've said both sides of the same coin. If a role is to iconic for scum to claim, it is iconic enough for a jester to claim. I dont see a difference here.

Disagree here. Scum need to be extra super cautious. If there's even the remote possibility of a role existing, they should steer clear. Jester needs to be as reckless as possible. The scum caution threshold is not the same as the Jester recklessness threshold, because the Jester has nothing to lose.

4.) Really, hasn't built a case.
On whom do you wish me to build a case? I think I've been pretty clear in my Iron Man hate. I do not see lynching him as smarter than lynching Darla.
I dont CARE who you build a case on. I just like having the cases. Hell, it could be on me, but the points and logical conclusions that lead you to it is very important to have. I know your stance on Ironman and you've said it in some places, but a point by point never hurts. (because maybe we see different things, or different takes, etc).

I'm not going to be repeating myself day 1. As I see it, day 1 is mostly for getting the most information out of the most number of people as possible. Which is what I'm trying to do with my questioning and vote hopping. Im not going to do a PBPA because I do not feel anyone warrants one *yet*. My case on Iron Man has been stated multiple times, the only thing apparently lacking for you is quotes, since I believe the points are clear.

h.) Suggests I'm lyncher - again, pushing for a lynch on me tomorrow?
Yes, I suggested this. Just like you suggested Darla is a Jester. Both of these are far fetched and ridiculous. Even though you are clearly twisting my words around, I don't actually want you lynched tomorrow unless Darla comes up town.
Honestly, I dont think Lyncher OR Jester are as rediculous flavorwise in MP as other things and, to me, DBE's play considering I do not believe there to be two taunters it would make sense. But, this latter part clears up some confusion (as I've said before).

They're not commonly used roles. If you're going to bring up one, I'm going to bring up the other to point that out.

Ok, maybe I'm reading too much into it, but the fact both LG and Mirth have ignored what, to me, feels like the Razor in this case bothers me. The fact that both have said, outright, if I am right then I am scum and should be lynched, really bothers me.
Again, I DID NOT SAY THIS. I said one dead scum confirms the other. As town. Learn to read.
The AS TOWN was not there. I accept I made a mistake but "learn to read" sure doesn't do anything at all. Your original statement, obviously, could be construed both ways.

I believe in the context it was written in it was pretty evident I meant the as town part.

However, that was a big part of my WTF, so with that cleared up I am much less suspicious. You are saying what the obvious Razor is and I am fine with that.

So, with that misconception out of the way not everything was building a OMG scum case, most were just key points in your posting either way. I posted it partially to get some clarifications and I got it.

So, yep, I can read. Nope, I sure wasn't trying to pull you out of context. Notice I didn't even vote for you - but those things struck me as odd so I addressed them. Thank you for clearing a lot of them up.

I did notice you weren't voting for me. I'm going to withhold judgment on whether that's a good thing or a bad thing for now. Your case, even if not meant to say I'm 100% scum, came off as taking me out of context *and* a bit OMGUSy because you apparently thought I wanted you lynched.

DBE was saying she was an RB and Spyrex said he was basically a limited lightningrod (attracting the action to himself).

Look at DBE's listing in the dead players list. It says "Role Attractor." Which is pretty much what Spyrex described himself as. So their roles according to this look identical except for her possible post restriction (we don't actually know if it was faked) and different clips showcasing the same taunter.

Saying "There's this intriguing mystery, and I'm going to tell you all about it...today! ...but not yet, later, just cuz" is 'tarded. I dont think anything is going to happen today that would make it easier or better to say something later. Either dont say anything at all, or come right out with it.

Spyrex, I have a question for you. Did you by any chance target me?

Mirth · Thu Jul 24, 2008 11:09 am

No, I'm not the bridgekeeper. Basically I want to know if you're lying, but if a protown bridgekeeper really exists, I don't want to out them by asking you who you targeted. If you decided to take my question as invitation of lying you would have been caught. Not a very good trap but it was worth a try.

That said I'm not sure I believe your claim. Bruce is dead and he was a cop. So while me might have another couple investigative roles, this one seems too strong in light of it not being the only one.

Also I still don't like the fact that Darla was telling the truth about almost everything but her alignment...

And I want to hear from Iron Man.

Mirth · Post Post #746 (isolation #135) » Fri Jul 25, 2008 6:48 am

Can't be too obscure if I was able to call that one off the bat. And I'm honestly not even that big of a Python fan.

You brought it up without prompting or reason *after* you complained about K7 and Pokerface omitting something. So what are *you* omitting and why?

Pokerface: if I thought he should name his target I would have asked already. I don't know if I buy it. All seems too convenient.

Mirth · Post Post #749 (isolation #136) » Fri Jul 25, 2008 6:53 am

Said I'm not sure if I do. Darla wasn't lying. And he claimed the exact role that dead-confirmed Darla has. How is that just something to write off? The power of the role he suggested he was targeted by also seems far fetched (unless there is something rather limiting there). So I'm not going to buy his claim yet because it seems unlikely that there would be 2 French taunters with identical powers and different alignments *and* there would be some kind of supercop who can find out *everything* about his target. Now answer my question.

Mirth · Post Post #751 (isolation #137) » Fri Jul 25, 2008 7:09 am

Ah, the soft claim, how I

it. Why did you put yourself in a position where it was obvious someone was going to jump on you for saying you know a role? And why did you ask who Mr. Vibrating was now as opposed to looked it up yourself at the start of the day quietly? You're obviously fishing for some sort of attention, why?

Mr. Vibrating is the John Cleese character. The one who turns it into a session of contradicting instead of arguing. (He's not named in the sketch.)

Are you saying I misunderstood spyrex, or are you saying spyrex is lying?

I'm saying that Spyrex is not Mr. Vibrating, so if Strap was the Bridgekeeper, she'd know a) nothing about Mr. Vibrating and b) both the role and alignment for Spyrex. Instead, she's voting Chenhsi, for lurking.

Speaking of, Chenhsi is lurking again.

Edit: And I just read Strap's post. I am very much inclined to believe her night action. Not sure about her alignment, but I do believe her night action.

@Spyrex: If you pulled Strapp in and Strapp targetted you anyway then your ability didn't really come into play. So Strapp's a watcher and saw the bridgekeeper, herself, and some machine target you last night.

No, Strap saw the bridgekeeper, Mr. Vibrating, and the Machine that Goes Ping. She claimed Bishop so she's none of the above. (A video link would be helpful here, Strap).

Or, you know, I was pushing it because you failed the initial test. You reacted badly to my first question, the "why ask?" and continued to react badly. But, for what it's worth, I believe your role. Don't know about your alignment, but I do believe your role.

Strap, I'd really just rather there were no soft claims in the first place. And yes, that is one of the reasons why I *hate* soft claims. Aside from scum possibly soft claiming so that they can keep from getting lynched I also hate softclaims because they start the whole WIFOM thing of how important the powerrole might be, and everybody's mind going "click click click" (to quote Anastasia), and its just darned annoying. If a breadcrumb gets to the point of arousing suspicion or giving away too much information, then it pretty much becomes a soft claim. I'm not against breadcrumbing, but I'd prefer that it wasn't blatantly obvious breadcrumbing, but the sort that can be pointed back to later. Because if town can get the breadcrumbs before the claim itself, so can scum. As for cop and doctor, well, they're no different from any other powerrole, as far as I'm concerned.
