[yabbaguy]

All of CSL's points are baseless. All these quotes his words from the last post.

Scum strategy.

- Reckamonic obviously will disagree here, but I thought at the time that there was a really good strategy for finding scum, and I got shut down with a baseless "stop rolefishing" remark. That's why I thought scum initially.

You voted Xite just so a hammer happens so you can go hide somewhere, scumbag.

I wanted the hammer to happen because I thought I was right. This point cannot be made until you claim that my reasons for voting Xite were poor/scummy.

This bit tells me Oman lied through his teeth, as this is buddying. yabbaguy screams scum here.

Yes, I went out of my way to rip down a wagon I felt was being driven by scummy/apathetic players. That's why I was so sure Guppy was a mislynch, the fact that all the reasoning from the people on board was lousy.

---

Take a look at Tasky's post here. The best people to help rat scum out are the scum themselves, and I think Tasky was doing precisely that at that moment in time. Obviously, Town players can come up with fully detailed PBPAs as well, but notice the strange tone of some of his arguments (well, as soon as you wade through all the emphasis headaches you have to go through). Tasky brings up a lot of confusion that results from Oman's post, but it's actually not apparent that he finds all of it scummy. The "old psychology" remark and the "finish your sentences" remark are cases in point. Some of them are just obscurities that only someone who knows Oman to be scum would pick up on, such as the intricate points about the craplogic and finding specific sentences that contradict each other.

The point is that he was right, but his accuracy is so good that he had to have been scum that was made acutely aware of Oman's scumminess.

[CSL]

Reckamonic, I await your mighty hammer on the scum.

[Reckamonic]

If it were Tasky, we'd hammer yabba.
But CSL has managed to shake up our town read on Tasky.
Give us a moment.

[Reckamonic]

yabba's 501 is scummy.

Vote: yabbaguy

So, who won?

[CSL]

I be town.

Excellent work!

[yabbaguy]

It was scummy? >:(

But yeah, I'm scum. Dear partners: the L-1 quickhammering was quite unnecessary. Like, really, it was.

I felt if I had killed the one I called confirmed (Tasky), it would've been too much of me imposing my views of the game on the nightkill and would've outed me all the same.

[Reckamonic]

Well you did the better choice Yabba.
Frankly, we had to take a moment to wonder, because while a Tasky vs Yabba was an easy choice, CSL's play today was... odd, let's just say. Still, if we don't clear a scummy person because they're replaced, we decided not to incriminate a townie person for the same reason.

Happy twas the good choice =D

What are you really, btw?

[Reckamonic]

The other of the hydra is here to say...

HOORAY! WE WON OUR FIRST HYDRA'D GAME!
=D

[CSL]

And this is my second win in a month in a lylo situation as either town or scum.

[yabbaguy]

"Incorrect letter guess".

Reckamonic, I was actually planning to go full-thrusters at you on D6, so CSL putting the hasty vote down actually pissed me off immensely.

You find it—the one last thing Wheel of Fortune players have to worry about, guessing a wrong letter. Nothing can stop Wheel of Fortune contestants from winning any money anymore! Everybody gets rich!

You lose yourself in the excitement knowing that the elements of misfortune are gone. A party happens on Stage 11, the one you were about to have when you send the Bankrupt wedge running, and it seems to go all night. You got them all...

yabbaguy, who was an

incorrect letter guess, a Mafia goon

, has been lynched on Day 6.
CSL, who was the

red contestant's podium, a vanilla townie

, has survived the endgame.
Reckamonic, who was the

contestant backdrop, a vanilla townie

, has survived the endgame.

CONGRATULATIONS CHARLIE, CSL, CURIOUSKARMADOG, FAKEGOD, PIEMAN, RECKAMONIC, TAZARO, WISTERIA, AND XITE91; YOU, THE TOWN, HAVE WON!

Roles and night actions when I get home.

[curiouskarmadog]

sweet....

[Tasky]

ok. this time really.
good game

[Tasky]

PS: I want to see the scum-quicktopic

[Reckamonic]

<3 this game
A lot of fun, actually. Short, not long-winded, good playerlist.

Thanks for the great game, players...and SC.
And thanks for being obvscum for us, Oman

[Tazaro]

Ugh. Now I get to be in 0 games for a while.

You... faked this? I thought this was your giving a genuine response to the false Oman last-scum misconception.

[yabbaguy]

I'm happy if the QT is posted as-is, but I'll wait for one other buddy to agree out of courtesy.

Glad to know I can BS a "game over?" line. Yup, it was absolute garbage, although now it's quite a genuine line.

The only thing I thought was dicey was that Tasky posting in the thread after the "game over?" episode really made it blatantly obvious (notwithstanding my informed stance) that his slot was Town, hence my allusion to it in thread. I think the outcome of Town win is certainly deserved and I can't pin the loss on that by any stretch, but lest that make a more substantial difference in another game, mods should watch out for that.

brianj, you are

Pat Sajak, a mason

. You, along with your co-host Vanna White (curiouskarmadog), are the people that make this show go! You two always have something to say at the end, too.

I have made a QuickTopic thread where you may discuss the game here. You may speak with each other in this thread from now until Day 1 starts to discuss strategy. You may not talk to each other outside of the thread during the day. You know each other to be innocent.

You win when all threats on Stage 11 have been eliminated from the game.

Please PM me back acknowledging that you understand and confirm your role. The thread is here and you're in a day start.

Charlie, you are the

Mystery Wedge, a one-shot insane doctor

. What's waiting for the player whom you visit: $10,000 or Bankrupt? Well, we'll never know until you flip over, now will we?

Each night, you may PM me the name of one player you would like to protect. In the 50% chance that your protection works, any attempt to kill that player will fail. You are not allowed to protect yourself. Be careful, though—the 50% of the time your protection doesn't work, you will kill your target instead.

Another player may have an identical role as you; if that is the case, then one of you is actually a one-shot

SANE

doctor while the other one of you is a one-shot vigilante.

dramonic, you are the

contestant backdrop, a vanilla townie

. Nice view out there, but they're going to set up a gallows pole in a minute, just like the show's predecessor.

You have no gun, no badge, no first-aid kit, no magic thingamajiggers, absolutely nothing special except for three things—The audience cheering you on, your brain, and voting abilities. But those three things are all you need to spin your way to victory!

Oman, you are the

Bankrupt wedge, a Mafia roleblocker

. You, along with your partners in crime the Lose a Turn wedge (Prof. Guppy, who is a goon) and an incorrect letter guess (yabbaguy, who is also a goon), are some of the biggest obstacles keeping players from winning. It's only fitting that you're together to do evil,

AND

you like taking hits on people's wallets. You little scoundrel, you...

Each night, I need you to decide on a player whom you want to kill, if any, and which of you will PM me the hit. In addition, I need you specifically to tell me whom, if anybody, you would like to roleblock. If your roleblock target has a night action and attempts to use it that same night, it will fail. You will repeat this process until the end of the game or you die, whichever happens first. You are not allowed to nightkill yourself or your partner, nor are you allowed to roleblock yourself (you

ARE

, however, allowed to roleblock and kill on the same night). If you decide to forego your kill and/or if you decide not to roleblock anybody, it'd be nice if I know.

I have made a QuickTopic thread where you may discuss your night actions here. You may speak with each other in this thread from now until Day 1 starts to discuss strategy. You may not talk to each other outside of the thread during the day.

You know that you can replace your user name in the below with anybody else's and still be unable to get a role that really exists:

Oman, you are the

Prize Puzzle, a jack of all trades

. In the actual show, you win trips from these things; here, you can be a bit manipulative (or just find out stuff about something else on the stage).

Each night, you may investigate somebody (I will tell you whether that player is innocent or guilty to you), protect somebody (any attempt to kill that player will fail), or roleblock somebody (any attempt by that player to use a night action will fail). You are not allowed to use the same ability more than once, nor are you allowed to use said abilities on yourself.

MOD NOTES

• I must admit that I shouldn't have put this game in the queue without having my reviewers confirm they liked it. I still think that treating the Mystery wedges as a second set of masons was a mistake for them to make, but the Mafia missing their Night 2 actions and two Mafiosi self-hammering Days 2 and 3 messed them up enough to swing it back to town. It got to three-player LYLO, so apparently it neutralized out, but I think I unbalanced this toward town
  
• If he had been keeping his signature current, you broke Prof. Guppy's perfect Mafia record. I don't think he's going to be happy...

[FakeGod]

w00t

[Charlie]

Yay, great job Town! I'm kinda glad to be offed N1 as my reads were all wrong this game.

[Charlie]

Nice flavour, SC!

[Xite91]

I knew Oman was up to something and the game wasn't over when he started asking about PR's good job town not telling him
Also, Damn, sorry CKD, I should have stuck with my 4th tell

[curiouskarmadog]

i didnt mind the heat you gave me...thought it would have kept me in the game longer...it didnt.

sorry I helped lynched you...

[Oman]

I honestly agree, no sour grapes for sure, but having three confirmed townies at once really limited our options.

I hammered myself before the claim simply because I wanted to leave the fakeclaim for yabbaguy. I was stunned when he didn't chose to use it.
