Mini 942: Gonzo Mafia - Game Over!

[hohum]

I like how DDD only quoted half my post. Good job, duck!

I already said I don't trust Vi, but that doesn't mean that the first half of your argument wasn't the single dumbest thing that anyone has posted in this game.

You're going to eat these words if I'm proven correct. Go look at his posts. The vast majority of them are those ridiculous "RUN THESE HEADLINE RARRR" themed posts.

He doesn't post like that in any other game. Ever.

Players typically don't match their posts to the theme for such a sustained period of time like that. It's cute at first but gets old fast.

At minimum Vi lied about being under a post restriction. With 2 scum down "lynch all liars" isn't terribly harmful at this point and may net a third scum.

Townies typically don't lurk for an entire day phase and hammer at the end.

Sadly, I'm somewhat agreeing with hohum here... Vi's play is odd, and it makes me think post restriction.

[Sotty7]

When exactly did Vi lie about any post restriction?

And when I say I'm not giving you a pass I mean just that. Some people want to think you hammering yesterday gives you towncred. I don't think it does considering the circumstances.

[Zachrulez]

I'm really not seeing it.

The whole Vi is lying about a post restriction thing and must be scum theory. I don't see it, and I don't get it.

xReck is scum. Sometimes it really is this easy.

[xRECKONERx]

And sometimes Jack is an unintelligent ponce.

[hohum]

he very much so lied about being under post restriction. I asked him about it towards the beginning of D1 and he denied that he was -- clearly not true.

That doesn't mean I'm wrong, but if you feel that way lynch me for I have sinned. Also, you try posting coherently after breaking a toe with no access to pain meds or decent medical care of any kind.

[Sotty7]

But there are plenty of posts were Vi isn't using any kind of "scoop" type deal. What about those?

[hohum]

What about them? Post restrictions can (and sometimes are) written in such a way as to try not to be obvious.

If vi goes for the rest of the day without making a single one of those posts then maybe I'll be convinced that I'm barking up the wrong tree here.

You're not helping your cause any with comments like this.

Skimmed up, glad that Jah is scum; bewildered that Percy is town. Not sure why there's still some hate towards me but whatever.

Contemplating a massclaim with 2 mafia dead already. Would help clear/implicate people from N1 due to the lack of a kill then.

N1 lasted ten minutes I expect there is nothing to clear or implicate based on that.

[Amished]

Then why would the scum decide to no-kill? There had to have been time to allow for any decisions.

Maybe that was the intention of the short night?

[Amished]

What are you trying to say the intention of the short night is? That the scum decided not to kill somebody (against their wincon) for wifom purposes?

No, I am saying maybe the intention of the short night was to DEPRIVE the scum of their night kill.

[Amished]

5) Nights will have a set deadline of 72 hours. Any night actions not sent in by that time will not be counted. No exceptions.

... yup. Mod definitely hates the scum to make them not have time to make a NK. If there's an ability to shorten the night, then that player is cleared as that person would have zero scum intention to deprive their team of night-communication and/or a night kill.

Or ortolan was a scum version of a beloved princess and his lynch sent us back to day immediately. Given the rule you just quoted there's obviously some ability at play but it certainly doesn't have to be town or scum aligned.

[Amished]

Aren't beloved princesses normally like... named something other than a neighbor-maker?

If the case is that Ort/Cobalt had another passive-ability like that, then it's less likely that scum would buss in that situation, wouldn't it?

You'd think so, but I'm not going to try and play outguess the mod by accepting a mass claim as a good idea just to find one role without an obviously guaranteed alignment. If we screw up once or twice in lynches then we can talk, but it's just foolishness to hand scum all the info we have for no apparent or a minimal gain.

Jack says:

Then in his very next post says:

disconnect/10.

[ekiM]

hohum still a good lynch, hammering the only other wagon doesn't mean much. Also Jahudo defended hohum all the live-long day, just search his ISO for `hohum'. Then goes for it when he realizes it's one of the two of them.

xRx looks real bad in his interactions with Jahudo and kyle. Also this whole "I'll active lurk, be useless, and dare you to lynch me each time you call me out" thing.

Vote: xReckonerx

hohum, why is it that you chose to spend three weeks saying nothing rather than replacing out?

Looking at straight at the lynching wagons I was surprised to see that ekiM wasn't on either scum lynch. He was pushing pretty hard against a Jahudo lynch towards the end of yesterday. He also paid a lot of lip service to the Ort/Colbat wagon on day one but never voted. Choosing instead to push a Hohum lynch. I really want to hear from him and where he stands today. He is no longer in my town reads.

I thought a hohum lynch was good D1. Still did D2. Still do. I wasn't going to decide whether to switch to Cobalt until he spoke. Pushed hard against Jahudo lynch because I didn't see the case. hohum going a whole day saying nothing was much worse in my eyes than whatever kyle stuff there was.

Anything specific you want to know?

My beef with ekiM is mainly that at the start of day 2 I (in 540) posted a bunch of quotes and asked him some questions about it, which he answered. The next page Jahudo makes the same basic case (some of the same quotes), not even noticing that it had been talked about, and ekiM responds at length, not noting that it had already been talked about.

However, it's likely that Jahudo was just being lazy scum targetting a townie, and ekiM just didn't happen to mention that it was the 2nd time the accusation had been made, instead deciding that since it kept being brought up, he needed to do a lengthy reply.

He asked me more and different questions.
