1119: The Might of Mordor: Game Over

[Edge]

Oooooh, dissonance in the Edge hydra. Don't you guys have a quicktopic?

YEAH WE DO I DISAGREE WITH FATE HALF THE TIME ANYWAYS.

WHATS YOUR POINT SCUMBAG, JUST TRYING TO THROW DIRT EVERYWHERE AND HOPE SOME OF IT STICKS?

DIE A PAINFUL DEATH.

[Edge]

AND BY PAINFUL I MEAN REALLY REALLY REALLY PAINFUL. (INCLUDING A UNICORN HORN REPEATEDLY STABBED THROUGH YOUR EYE SOCKETS)

[AlmasterGM]

Oh good, the hate is back. I was beginning to worry we might be friends.

What is your opinion of who teh scumz are? Do you agree with the Fate campaign on Plum?

[ReaperCharlie]

Plum is scum.

[ReaperCharlie]

(said the guy who was much too lazy to log onto Edge just to post 3 words)

[Edge]

WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT REAPER

[Andrius]

Notice

The issue with the last votecount has been fixed. Thanks for pointing it out, AGM/quadz.

[Edge]

You're Fate impersonation is lacking.

I happen to agree with Katy/??? said that AGM is not 100% scum, but he is not the ideal imbue target today. MoI said it thats right,

we should leave AGM alive to make scum deal with whether to kill him or not because a confirmed town vote is powerful the next day after he dies.

Plum needs to die.

[Andrius]

Replacement Found

hohum

replaces

Mariyta

. Deadline and all votes are as they were.

[hohum]

\o/

[Edge]

....

[hohum]

That was my confirmation post, essentially. I'm reading the topic but some tl;dr would be lovely

[quadz08]

uber tl;dr:

AGM claimed a superpower that confirms him to two players of his choice.
Plum was generally suspected at the beginning of the day.
I gathered a large imbue-wagon before AGM's claim.
Your predecessor was scummy as all hell. Have fun with that.

[AlmasterGM]

I happen to agree with Katy/??? said that AGM is not 100% scum, but he is not the ideal imbue target today. MoI said it thats right,

wtf is this bullshit, you were JUST YELLING about how fake my claim was and that I was "obviously scum."

V/LA untiL Sunday.

[ReaperCharlie]

Maritya/hohum needs to swing. Followed by quadz/singersigner.

So Plum, why did you lie?

*coughpostasEdgecough*

[quadz08]

Maritya/hohum needs to swing. Followed by quadz/singersigner.

So Plum, why did you lie?

I agree with the first one. Care to explain the second? Because the other half of your hydra is voting to imbue me.

[ReaperCharlie]

Be that as it may, I am not fooled for a second by your wiles.

[quadz08]

........ First, stop posting out of hydra. I'd like isos on you to be useful. Second, wtf are you even talking about?

Reaper, please post as Edge. Thanks.

[Katy]

This game is suddenly very lulzy.

Something tells me the imbue thing isn't gonna work so

Unimbue: AGM

Imbue: Quadz

Quadz is like my soulmate, I can't not imbue him.

VOTE: Hohum

Let's put some fire under your butt to save yourself. I previously agreed with VV about Mariyta's play being similar to before, but actually, she didn't seem to get nearly as bothered by the opposition before, despite the fact that people found her scummy for most of the game. Her behavior most recently though seems a lot more frustrated and emotional. I have zero experience with Mariyta-scum so if anyone does they can educate me, but in the last game I was mixed about Mariyta the whole way through because I could never shake my strong gut feeling that she was town based on her posting style despite other arguments for her being scum. Her extremely emotional reactions in her more recent posts do not give me the same gut feeling at all, and I have started to think that it is scum-Mari getting frustrated that her arguments aren't working. She didn't seem to mind nearly as much in the previous game, that I can recall.

Since there's a replacement I would normally wait to vote, but heck it is late in the day, I think a little motivation won't hurt our new player to start working it right from the start.

Sorry, Mr. Pickypants.

And of course you don't agree with my wanting you to swing, quadz. That's what makes it so delightful.
Still not down with the quadz-imbuing. Time to imbue AGM and see what happens for good or awesome.

RC out.

[Edge]

KATY is just going with the flow way way too much; I can't remember much if anything of what she's done. Encouraging testing is not thinking about the potential major pitfalls if AGM is lying, not for real. If you're worried that AGM might be scum you'd try to think through the ramifications of giving him the Ring in the first place. And considering Katy had been voting AGM just before . . . NO. Dammit we've let Katy drift as she pleases getting no heat WAY TOO LONG.

I believe [AGM's] claim. I don't really like his activity in this day all that much, but that doesn't mean I have to automatically disbelieve his claim. I think the percentage chance that he is lying to conceal some amazing superpower that lets scum get an enormous advantage are slim. I also think if he were lying he would have chosen something else to claim, something more intrinsically powerful and less confirmable.

I also think if we are going to play as paranoid as many people are getting right now, then we are going to paralyze ourselves out of doing anything. I think it's worth testing his claim if we can get a mod-confirmed townie, especially one like AGM who might have to become an NK target over more desirable targets for scum, if he becomes a confirmed townie. For me, the potential benefits make this a worthwhile risk. Scum WANT you to second guess every plan that may help town. They want town to be afraid to take risks. They want town to be scared that they have massive superpowers that can destroy us. But we are the frakking dark forces of Sauron and we have the RING. We do not cower like babies before cutesy little half-men and simpering elves.

This post has been certified 100% awesome.

[REAPERCHARLIE APPROVAL STAMP]

This. It's a "worthwhile risk."

Un-imbue; Imbue: AGM

Unvote; Vote: hohum

[hohum]

If it's time for me to go then it's time for me to go.

Since I replaced in the argument has been OMGZ Mariyta SCUMMY hohum MUST GO

On day 1 mind you. It's quite unreasonable to expect a replacement to defend what has been decidedly emotional play. I simply can't do that and I'm not going to go on the offensive while I'm being wagoned.

tl;dr lynch me or fuck off.

[MasterSpy]

@Sevei

– when you weather related problems end I’d like to see a good summary from you that shows some opinions on players other than Plum. Thanks.

Oooooh, dissonance in the Edge hydra. Don't you guys have a quicktopic?

I have to somewhat agree that this isn’t real scum-hunting and may qualify as mud-slinging. Hydra’s by nature are never going to be 100% in sync. As an example my read on you is Town at the moment AGM, while Mina is going her regular waffling (sorry Mina ). I don’t think they should be having public slap-fights but presentation of individual opinions that aren’t radically different (moving votes between players as each head posts due to conflict, as an example of what would be radically different) isn’t unusual.

That’s not entirely accurate. Quadz has been calling your slot scummy and voting for you for a while. I addressed my case clearly right before Mari half-heartedly responded and then fled in terror.

On day 1 mind you. It's quite unreasonable to expect a replacement to defend what has been decidedly emotional play. I simply can't do that and

I'm not going to go on the offensive while I'm being wagoned.

tl;dr lynch me or fuck off.

Empahsis added … um what?

If you are not going to defend Mari’s play (which is a reasonable thought process since you aren’t her) then going ‘on the offensive’ and scum-hunting should be what you do.

That you refuse to do so says to me we should just toss you in Mt. Doom and be done with you.

As for not defending Mari’s play you are subtlely doing just that when justifying her play as “emotional” as if scum can’t be such.

[hohum]

Unvote

btw

If you are not going to defend Mari’s play (which is a reasonable thought process since you aren’t her) then going ‘on the offensive’ and scum-hunting should be what you do.

If you want my opinion of the game so far you should be looking at the people who voted me immediately after replacing in and before I ever made my first real post. The FATE/RC hydra needs to go.

Since there's a replacement I would normally wait to vote

Lame excuse to deviate from an established meta.
