NY 169: The EPIC XD Mafia Game of Greatness (Game Over)

[geists]

Good thing I have a backup question then.

[goodmorning]

I GOT DISTRACTED

[goodmorning]

Answered that one but if you prefer the backup then go with that too.

[geists]

What's the answer Mara?

[goodmorning]

Ok. So. For your backup question, wait to ask it until you get confirmation from both of us. We'll coordinate in the QT.

[geists]

Yeah. Questions aren't that hard to come up with. coordinating a timeframe, not so much.

[goodmorning]

Well. If she's not back in 10 minutes or so, I'm going to sleep.

[Ms Marangal]

OH ANSWER TO THE FIRST QUESTION IS INTERESTING IF YOU'LL STILL TAKE IT

[geists]

Proph, I'm very interested in your answer to the bolded question as well.

proph

do you usually hunt (or can you show me where you've previously hunted) for scum based solely on the

number

of "interactions" with flipped scum? also, i gather you have experience with generic -

is the idea that generic would have fewer interactions with his buddies based on meta or is it purely an assertion?

See like this feels fake and ooc

did you actually read proph's post?

coz he's literally suggesting people are town/scum based purely on the number of interactions. like, read it.

[geists]

OH ANSWER TO THE FIRST QUESTION IS INTERESTING IF YOU'LL STILL TAKE IT

lol that's not the answer I was thinking of but it's not a bad answer.

[zMuffinMan]

he said he read a game of generic's where generic didn't interact with his buddies "much" - i'm not sure if it was before or after he wrote that big post (i would guess after since it seems like an afterthought)

[geists]

This ISO from another game is generic and another scum player (Sakura as it happens).

http://forum.mafiascum.net/viewtopic.ph ... er_sort=Go

Though I'll grant that he didn't interact that much with the other scum (SoS - GiF and me). Nobody did. We hardcore lurked that game.

[Titus]

@Prophy, if you believe interactions will show who the scum are, why are you fine with voting me? If lower interactions = scum then higher interactions = town. Also what separated higher interactions with lower interactions?

Why the hell did you say I am coasting when I am vla? Try to force a mislynch much?

[Titus]

That last question should be what separates active and passive interactions?

[Casso the King of Seals]

Nacho, please let me take the lead and follow my list

You owe me for pennepidum <3

I don't owe you anything
What do you think of my Cephrir townread? If you want me to even consider lynching Titus, there's a giant stumbling block you'll have to overcome because that's the read I've invested the most time and brainpower into forming and it's become the type of read that's going to have to be pried from my cold, dead fingers.

If you are hellbent on being stupid, lynch me today. I cannot live in lylo due to people discrediting me. SAD is a horrible lynch. Prophy and Sakura are the onlycandidates I will tolerate. I want a scum lynch if I have to die trying, so be it. Lynch me or leave me be.

Why do you think SAD is a bad lynch?
Because he most certainly is not.

The xenogears town came really close to losing because they didn't scumhunt "below the line". They lynched through that group without a lot of thought.

We came close to losing because confirmed town hammered a claim supersaint for absolutely no reason, actually.

Falcon, you don't understand the pain we all went through watching Pere hammer obv-town nacho giving scum the win

I still am of the camp that policy lynching players because they will fuck up LyLo is a shitty idea; if you're playing with the expectation that you will reach LyLo, then you will probably end up in LyLo and that isn't exactly the ideal situation for town, especially considering that the stronger players are the ones who are the most likely to fool you in LyLo. I also don't think that this game will reach/should reach LyLo.

If my flip achieves anything it should be that Thor gets off his high horse and actually starts putting in ~effort~

Do you really think that you flipping town will shake Thor from his high high horse? Because I don't.

I partly want to get Titus lynched over SAD because Casso doesn't want it

, partly because SAD's frustration about the wagon on him feels town. I want to see where this goes, i.e. if Titus flips scum, I'd keep more of an eye on Casso. This also seems to be the first time this game Thor cared so much about who is lynched.

Also, not impressed that Nacho is posting elsewhere but not here. He is just allowing Thor to clown around and create chaos.

I have not posted on any hydra games during busy as fuck work week because I assume that all of my hydra partners are competent enough to handle the game on their own. Granted, Thor might be the only exception, but etc.

I think I just went on stalker mode and was looking at the wrong photobucket.

[Casso the King of Seals]

I'm not really finding SAD's self-vote dance very genuine at all. It doesn't exactly strike me as the type of full-blown meltdown that a "fuck you, I'm bringing you off your high horse" meltdown tends to bring with it, and the lack of anything around the self-vote makes the vote seem more like an attempt to throw us off him as opposed to anything else. I browsed Titan's play in that horror of a nightless game but Arthur didn't really post much during the meltdown phase (yet another towngame where he lurked to the end), so that didn't really turn out to be very fruitful at all. Coupled that with the attacks on geists and worry about Mara/GM and it ends up just seeming gambitty, like he's trying to do things he figures people think scum wouldn't do in an effort for towncred.

[Casso the King of Seals]

I acknowledge that a Titus wagon is not the absolute worst thing to come into the game ever, but:

Prophylaxis (3) - zMuffinMan, Titus, Ser Arthur Dayne

is horrible.
I don't think that Bert was scum, especially considering his recent string of games where he's scum and plays like absolute and complete shit and this not being the game where he breaks his rut so throughly and completely, especially when micro games where he's playing like absolute shit are still ongoing. I really really don't give a shit what Proph ends up posting but the slot is still town.

[Casso the King of Seals]

I think pieguy could possibly be scum and would be massively reassured if he popped up in thread and started doing a bunch of ridiculously townie things again.

Do you really think that you flipping town will shake Thor from his high high horse? Because I don't.

Oh of course not but I'm just trying to make him feel bad shhh.

Which one was that? Also if you're gonna browse any Titan game of mine it should be Mafiastuck instead...
