Mini 1159 - Powerrox93's Mini Normal I (Game Over)

[StefanB]

Andrew: Connection with Stefunny, because of the name, Stefan is a very common name where I live.
Because of the mistake, there isn't any connection I think.
No I haven't got any connection to any scanner I know of, beside playing with some.
The name Stefunny I have read, she was female, no connection I know of. (Beside perhaps here having a similar name)

[tarsonisocelot]

andrew94 is onto something but not for the reasons he thinks. tarsonisocelot's greeting to townies and mafia is not the mark of a serial killer. It's the sign of a mafioso who's thinking only in terms of town and mafia, rather than a townie who's considering all possible enemies. (Also the 'mafia scum' seems a bit forced when he could just say 'mafia', clearly trying to distance himself a bit with that phrasing.)

Vote: tarsonisocelot

As for yabbaguy, StefanB's question is about as useful as the 'are you carrying illegal drugs?' questions on custom forms. "Why yes, StefanB, I am scum." But he's right that yabbaguy's concern about being a possible lynchee is a bit odd. One to keep an eye on.

Or there were only two [insert faction here] slots in the template text "Good morning [Group A] and [Group B]!".

Serial killers are unlikely to respond to greetings anyway, being of an antisocial nature for the most part.

Question won't get a usefully truthful answer sure, but it could create an interaction to look at later.

Nota Bene: I'm female.

TO: it is because your good morning template only had two slots that you are suspected of being scum.
Why would you respond to your own greeting?

Suspicious ocelot is suspicious.

Vote: TO

[yabbaguy]

Vote: Yabbaguy

hate this please don't lynch me today. Are you so bad that you are often lynched as town on day 1, or are you scum, so are afraid to be lynched?

None of the above, Stefan. See, you and the others are really gullible, my sig clearly shows how much more intelligent and confident I really am.

Unvote, Vote: imaginality

for fencesitting on what he thought was a VI and blathering.

Vote: TO

Add a third gender to standard English language interactions between humans and I'll change my template - obviously where it came from.

I've played in games with 2 and 19 sides, but not three to my knowledge[could change by the time this game ends]. Is there any reason that not accounting for all of these and other possibilities in a throwaway comment at the start of RVS is suspicious or is this just because I stole a piece of candy from you?

I would translate this as blablabla.
No real reason given, interesting.
So why if you are so an intelegent and confident player did you start the game with please don't lynch me?

Ad Mod:

I will be VLA the next weekend Saturday and Sunday (my timezone GMT+2 at the moment)

Noted!

[Uncle Pain]

I've played in games with 2 and 19 sides

19 sides? Was that 19 SKs put up against each other? o_O

[Jase]

Ok so I'm thinking yabas "Please don't lynch me" bit was an intentional deception and this means he's almost certainly scum.

BUT I'm going to ignore what I just said and vote stefan for no adequately explained reason.

Vote: StefanB

[yabbaguy]

@Stefan: Firstly,

Code: Select all

[quote="yabbaguy"]yabbaguy said this.[/quote]

equals

yabbaguy said this.

I'd imagine most find that to be second-nature after a week tops.

Look at any post other than the one in question that I've made on this site. Even in Newbie 782 from the depths of the archive, which you can access in my yGDB if you seriously want to go that far, and you'll realize I was playing deliberately off-meta. My intent was absolutely to look like a complete numbskull, poor spelling, not knowing what the fuck a shift key was, and blatantly acting defensive to see who bit.

Basically, I'm reaction-fishing. I would call that a very intelligent move.

---

Let's analyze everyone who bit the bait:

@StefanB: Head-over-heels fell for it. The question is actually extraordinarily rubbish as imaginality put it, so I'm tilting scum on this one.

@imaginality: No vote from him, but that's actually worse and merits my vote. Mentions StefanB in passing. I'm not sure if imaginality has a somewhat formulaic/robotic personality ordinarily. Him mentioning StefanB out front just to say "you made an error, but I agree with you" is actually very intriguing. Whether that's buddying or just generic blathering, we definitely should strongly consider him first.

@Zdenek: Not sure. Laziness doesn't really tell either way, but that does seem off-meta from him as well, speaking of.

@Jase: Gigantic question mark. Catches that I'm trying to deceive AND CALLS IT SCUMMY. What the fuck? Just, what the fuck?

[imaginality]

Some misrepresentation going on here. I voted tarsonisocelot for reasons explained in the post. Very weak reasons, but it's the opening page, gotta start somewhere! Given that I'd voted her, how could I have voted you as well?

And I questioned the value of StefanB's question to you (and as a sidenote here, I thought he responded well to me on that point), but agreed with him that your opening post was of interest. I didn't call you scummy for it, I said I'd be keeping an eye on you.

The scummiest thing so far is certainly Jase's post. Not his reasoning for finding you scummy. That's just crappy. What's actively scummy is that he calls you scummy but then goes and casts a random vote instead.

Unvote; vote: Jase

- why did you 'ignore what [you] just said' and vote someone else instead of yabbaguy?

[-L-]

Jase: I'd say RVS is over. Voting Stefan randomly - and late like you did makes no sense.

[Jase]

Imaginality: Oh sorry should I be voting Yabba?

I'll set this right with a quick

Unvote
vote: Yabba

I'm so glad you're watching out for me!

[yabbaguy]

Jase, please respond to my "what the fuck" reaction please. Your play is going deeper into said WTF levels.

[Jase]

Jase, please respond to my "what the fuck" reaction please. Your play is going deeper into said WTF levels.

So you're trying to discredit me by saying my play is illogical. Is that it?

[andrew94]

firstly, whos LO?
secondly, uncle pain, please get an avatar.
thirdly, stefanB, can u explain ur psot 25, it does not make any sense

[yabbaguy]

Jase, please respond to my "what the fuck" reaction please. Your play is going deeper into said WTF levels.

So you're trying to discredit me by saying my play is illogical. Is that it?

That's a strawman argument. I really wish you'd just tell me why you even think I am scummy for trying to deceive people. I mean, if I recall correctly, you KNEW I was playing off-meta, and yet you called these tactics scummy. Why?

[yabbaguy]

By the way, I'll reduce imaginality to IGMEOY. I will admit the logic makes sense.

Unvote, Vote: Stefan

for massive confrontational attitude (this shows from scum often) and making up a rubbish case on what he thought was a VI. This actually makes more sense.

[tarsonisocelot]

I've played in games with 2 and 19 sides

19 sides? Was that 19 SKs put up against each other? o_O

19 sides:three town players, one of whom was confirmed innocent and could only be killed by two players with the option of giving up all other powers to twilight kill him; a scumteam of godafather + goon; a neutral team of a survivor plus bodyguard; and 16 SKs. I was bodyguard.
We knew the mod was a troll when we signed up, but only realised he was a bastard on D2 when 10 players were dead. It was an odd game. One of the SKs realised that most players were on D1 and then used the lack of "fight club rules" to set up a syndicate an co-ordinate the night kills. Two SKs fulfilled their win conditions - one won if town and mafia lost, the other survived.
Fun but crazy.

[tarsonisocelot]

Imaginality: Oh sorry should I be voting Yabba?

I'll set this right with a quick

Unvote
vote: Yabba

I'm so glad you're watching out for me!

[Jase]

I think we should completely ignore the fact that uncle pains only activity is to ask a not at all relevant question. I'm a good player.

[Surprise_Carcinogen]

About to go to bed when i notice this game had started. Will start actually posting tomorrow after work, but for now I simply dislike Jase refusing, when told point blank, to address a point b lank question

[Uncle Pain]

I think we should completely ignore the fact that Jase is just throwing around random accusations. Excuse me for being curious to an extent that goes beyond this thread! And also excuse me for just posting only twice in two pages / one day!!!!!11 (man…)

VOTE: Jase. Don’t like your attitude.

[StefanB]

As a personal request from Mister y this time without quotes:

Jase: Hm, voting first RVS but having found someone who he thinks is scum. Then a little presure from imaginality und a question from [L] and he unvotes and votes the one who is scummy in his opinion.
Und then stats he is a good player. Let's ignore that the y-guy get's under my skin with every post, this is (without the last post) clasic mafiaplay.
Voting him at the point is a good vote, but there is yabbaguy.

Andrew: You asked me if I have any connection to Stefunny. No, not that I know was my answer, still any confussion.

yabbaguy:
Your reactionfishing: You should know that people on RVS try to analyze everythink in the beginning of a game, and your posting was strange. So acting strange will drove reaction from town or mafia both.
Your second post: Newsflash by your own reasoning your are scum.
The most confrontational isn't me, it's you. I didn't call someone a VI (altough indirectly) in my second post.
I never called you a VI. If I had thought you were this, than I would have checked how bad a VI you were and then acting accordenly. (there are VIs, who are very good at loosing the game for town, they are in my opinion a good lynch if you haven't found scum on day 1)
But the Best ICsign is normaly a good sign that you are a better player. So your first post was just strange, so I tryed to get a reaction from you.
You reacted, your reaction doesn't read town, it reads scum, liking my vote.
Of course we are on page 2 so I am not 100% sure to have found scum, I am not complete rational (called VI) and I know of the danger of tunneling, but I like my vote on you.
