New York 185: Freshwater Frenzy!

[Prolapsed Brain]

Gotta love them tasty timezones. Can't just summon everyone to be online simultaneously.

I'm not here to party, I'm here to catch scum.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Can someone please explain all this SilverWolf love, please? Thanks.

[Prolapsed Brain]

I am ten pages behind.

So far, Ozgin looks scummish, Egg looks townish, Titus looks nulltownish, and everyone else is not memorable.

[Prolapsed Brain]

If he flips town then I really, really need to talk to him in Twilight.
That's about all.

It doesn't work like that, you know. Why don't you go back to the Newbie Queue?

[Prolapsed Brain]

... Shit... are you kidding me with this post.

I never kid.

[Prolapsed Brain]

@Prolapsed Brain:
In my experience, I am often around during twilight to talk to players.
Twilight is a thing that happens.
Will we end up with a long enough twilight where both Dragons and I are online to discuss Dragons' role?
Maybe.
That's why I'm not hinging everything on it. It's simply a part of the whole of my thoughts and approach to Dragonspawn.
You should get in the game instead of just insulting people, though. :3

The point you didn't address, though, is how are you going to talk to dragonspawn

after he flips?

Once he's flipped, it's Night and he's dead.

If he

[dragonspawn]

flips town then I really, really need to talk to him

[dragonspawn]

in Twilight.
That's about all.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Don't know who to vote for yet. It'll happen.

[Prolapsed Brain]

So. Hi!

Still 6 pages behind. Reading now, this is effectively a prod-dodge.

[Prolapsed Brain]

I want to hear ProlapsedBrain give more talk before I vote for him, considering he has 8 posts and none of them have any substance (which I can understand being viewed as leanscummy).

@Prolapsed

Colon

Brain - Do you have a readslist with actual substance anywhere? Are you even caught up in playing?

Also, I'm not gonna say much to the Aeronaut situation, I just took my finals a week ago and damn do I know how stressful that is (it was why I was so late confirming my pre-in for the game).

@Aero:

Please post when you can, let us know when you can start reading etc., your contributions would be much appreciated.

I do not yet have a comprehensive readslist. I need to go to bed, but I will resume reading at this (quoted) post, and give actual relevant input sometime tomorrow.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Prolapsed, do you have day talk?

I do not, nor do I have night talk with anyone.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Your reads sweetcheeks?

Still reading. Couple pages to go. Leaning Ozgin for scum, mainly due to the Citizen debacle.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Okay.

Disclaimer: I'm in too many games. I don't want to replace out (of any of them), because that's unfair. I will make time for this one. This game is far too active at the moment.


I am not really comfortable with the amount of coaching Titus is giving lala. I am not labelling either with an alignment for it; I'm just not comfortable.

Prolapsed, do you have day talk?

I do not, nor do I have night talk with anyone.

Pigeon poop.
It's in the Setup that scums have Daytalk. This answer makes zero sense.

I can tell you that I read the setup info, and forgot the tidbit that scum have daytalk as it's irrelevant to me, but I don't expect you to believe me. (And for those saying it's very relevant, even to a townie, I will respond that daytalk is rather rare and it's

always

brought up in-thread, so I really wouldn't have to remember.)



I am leaning toward Ozgin as scum, primarily due to sheeping Titus. She's batshit insane, yes, but a lot of the times she's

actually right.

I'll play the odds.


VOTE: Ozgin

[Prolapsed Brain]

Prolapsed

concerning coaching:

why would Titus coach duck at all outside the scum chat if they were scum partners? And what do you mean by coaching?

See, I don't really know why she would, since there is daytalk. Like I said, I'm not assigning any alignment based on it, it just makes me feel oogy.

And by coaching, I mean the whole thing where Titus asked the questions of lala and gave guided instructions after. Sure, it got lala more into the game, and that's good, but overall, it still feels oogy.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Now, Lala, I'm not suggesting any answer to you.

To be fair, you did say this. I suppose I glossed over it to the next part....

Look at your reads, apply it to the gamestate.

I'll walk you through how.

The bolded. This is where I got "guided instruction." I hope you can see my reaction. I didn't mean to misrep you, just the "walk through" part really seemed ....mentor-ish, I guess.

Look at where your major townreads are. Look at where your major scumreads are. Why? Would you want to follow your townread? How does that make you feel?

These also made me get the coaching vibe.

Don't worry about being right, just type what your gut says right now.

And, again, to be fair, you ended like this, but I really was focusing on the middle parts of this post, not the beginning and the end.

[Prolapsed Brain]

You don't believe the Best Friends claim, House?

I believe it. I just think he's scum anyway.

dragon is always scum.

Per the wiki, Best Friends know each other are town. So, your two assertions blatantly contradict each other.

Stop this.

(still on page 57, reading and posting stream of consciousness.)

On preview, I see talk of hammer-acceptance. Give me an hour or two to finish reading, please? (Deadline seems to be 6+ days.)

[Prolapsed Brain]

Did someone say L-1?

VOTE: Ozgin

I ASKED NICELY

[Prolapsed Brain]

Why would you want to be "fucking noticed" ?

Silver, still reading, thanks for the heads-up.

[Prolapsed Brain]

House, darling, eat my shorts.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Still the faking is annoying on a personal level.

Because

you

never

lie, amirite?

[Prolapsed Brain]

But House has said that Lala is likely overwhelmed noobtown. But he also said that if Lala hasn't stepped it up D2, then he would be fine with voting her.

This could also be taken to mean that he will take the opportunity to coach her intensely during the night to assure she doesn't do it again.

Just sayin.

[Prolapsed Brain]

>>>>>

I'm getting pretty edgy right now 5 to 6 people have placed some suspicion on me but only half of them have given just a FEW sentences as to why they think that.

This is probably a scumslip.

Well, fuck me. Daytalk. I just

cannot

get used to that.

[Prolapsed Brain]

House, you have Boon as town and Dragonspawn as scum. You realize this makes absolutely no sense, right?

I addressed this, and got this answer:

You don't get it dude.

I'm not talking about his alignment.

(Also, to save space, Egg's 1493 is what prompted my 1618.)

[Prolapsed Brain]

I'm on page 62, which is right where I posted asking for some time to catch up prior to hammer, and then the thread exploded. I can't do any more right now, sorry.

If thread's locked when I come back, I'll keep any other thoughts overnight and post them in the Morning.

[Prolapsed Brain]

VOTE: laladucky

It's going to take a

lot

for me to move this vote (unless it's to Taly).

Wake me closer to deadline.


Also, Titus is highly likely scum, probably with lala. I'm not going to argue this right now.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Discussion != arguing.

Link to that game? (And what's a crossbar?)


P-Edit: Just the coaching, in tandem with your overall ditziness (for lack of a better word).

[Prolapsed Brain]

It occurs to me with the last comment that one mafia team had doc protection as a possibility. It seems logical that the other team would too.

Perhaps I jumped the gun on assuming it was good for town that we only had one kill. Because maybe the scum were protected by their doc or worse by a town doc if there is one.

I can't really put my finger on it, but somewhere, deep in the depths of my soul, I find this scummy.

[Prolapsed Brain]

I am a little partial to solving why a guy who wants to be known as Boring Frozen Water would sing " Frozen water infant" over and over again, rather than solving who was night killed.

Under Pressure?

I am so confused.

Between the two of them, House looks a lot more scummy than Kitz. I mean, House is lying and throwing as much confusion as he possibly can into the game, and then in that process claims to be a day cop and have an innocent on Kitz. I'm not sure that "wat" is much different than my response would be given the context. It's maybe a slight scum tell, but it just makes me take notice and want to pay a little more attention to Kitz at the moment.

What confuses me is why House isn't a much larger focus at the moment, given his ISO.

PLOT TWIST: House and Kitz are scumbuddies!

[Prolapsed Brain]

Taly, Titus, lalala. Most or all of the Blue Team, right there.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Boon? You on?

[Prolapsed Brain]

VOTE: lalalalaladuckyduck


This is the proper vote for today.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Taly and lalalala are scummates.

Discuss.

[Prolapsed Brain]

You're always scum.

[Prolapsed Brain]

House: If you are so dead-set on lynching RC, why is your vote on Cheeto? With, I might add, RC?

These things do not seem to be like the other.

[Prolapsed Brain]

House: If you are so dead-set on lynching RC, why is your vote on Cheeto? With, I might add, RC?

I can tell you're not paying very close attention to the thread.

2232.

Admittedly, I'm not. I don't invest a lot of time in kindergarten quibbling.

[Prolapsed Brain]

[Prolapsed Brain]

But why are they both scum? And WHY don't you think they're teammates?

[Prolapsed Brain]

unvote

VOTE: RadiantCowBalls

[Prolapsed Brain]

Yes, town would explain. Scum would avoid.

[Prolapsed Brain]

At this point, I'd happily lynch Bulge

I'm sorry, who are you talking about here?

[Prolapsed Brain]

I would happily switch my vote back to lalala.

[Prolapsed Brain]

There seems to be a core group -- about 8 or so people -- that are doing all the talking. (Obviously, I am not among that group.)

I will not be able to get back to this game (in any substantive manner) until late late Friday. I'll be posting some sort of prod-dodge between now and then.

[Prolapsed Brain]

There seems to be a core group -- about 8 or so people -- that are doing all the talking. (Obviously, I am not among that group.)

I'm interested in this statement PB. What are you trying to convey here?

Just noting that there are a ton of lurkers, and I can't help but wonder the alignment distribution of them.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Neither do I.

[Prolapsed Brain]

FA is losing townpoints for being brash and argumentative.

[Prolapsed Brain]

No, listen.

lala needs to be lynched today, otherwise she'll just sit here the rest of the game and jerk our chains.

VOTE: lalalaladuckies

[Prolapsed Brain]

lala needs to be lynched today, otherwise she'll just sit here the rest of the game and jerk our chains.

Hi.
This sounds like the kind of bullshit you said in my game.

Hi.

So?

[Prolapsed Brain]

I think I've finally figured out House ... He's either an e-cosplayer roleplaying the character... or he's actually Hugh Laurie and joined MS in depression after the show ended so he could continue to act the character. It all makes sense now.

Holy shit, you're right. You're absolutely right.

Also,

VOTE: Boo

Not voting Cheeto. Not this game, he's totally town.

[Prolapsed Brain]

but Boo, you think Prolapsed is a good lynch choice and you aren't voting for him? Why not?

I'm unlynchable, anyway.

[Prolapsed Brain]

dragon, why are you not reading? Only scum skim.

Read the post, dammit!

[Prolapsed Brain]

If a Commuter is commuting, it is untargettable that night by any means, not even Strongman, Roleblocker or Ninja. Any role that attempts to target a commuting Commuter should be treated as though they are blocked (e.g. receive a "No Result" pm if they are investigative).

All night actions targeting players with Ascetic (excluding NKs) will fail. All information-gathering actions targeting them will return with 'No Result.'

It's possible Skybird is Ascetic (as previously discussed) or Commuter.


Per the wiki:

Normal Guidelines

A Jailkeeper that simultaneously blocks and protects their target is considered Normal on mafiascum.net, provided that any mutual blocking scenarios are planned for during review. Any role that receives results (such as Tracker or Watcher) but is blocked should receive a "no result" message, rather than told their target didn't go anywhere or nobody visited their target. A Jailkeeper cannot stop a Strongman from committing a kill.

So, I am feeling very poorly (just getting over a stupid allergy/sinus/cold? thing, with bonus headache) and I started this quote thing with the intention of coming to a conclusion about Boo/Sky interactions, but my head hurts too much. I will (hopefully) come back to this later.

Bookitty, I have no idea why you didn't get a result N1. I did not get a result either. If I was jailkept or roleblocked, would you have gotten no result?

Likewaie, I quoted this into a separate tab, and forgot why. I know it's related but...... fuzzbrain. More later.

[Prolapsed Brain]

I will be around near deadline to switch wherever. I'm not a fan of a Kitz lynch, especially with that claim.

[Prolapsed Brain]

RC is (I hate to say it) absolutely correct.

I'm ready and willing to hammer.

Any objections?


P-Edit: nvm

[Prolapsed Brain]

I will be around near deadline to switch wherever. I'm not a fan of a Kitz lynch, especially with that claim.

This kind of pings my radar a bit.

Why? Because I didn't think of the randomness thing? It just didn't occur to me.


Also, just in case:

VOTE: Kitz

[Prolapsed Brain]

This is a twilight prod dodge. That is all.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Because it was stapled to the punk rocker.

[Prolapsed Brain]

I am bursting with ennui.

[Prolapsed Brain]

VOTE: Bookitty

I had thought, briefly, that you might have been town, but it looks like not.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Well, I obviously meant to say Dragonspawn

Obviously.

[Prolapsed Brain]

I agree with Boon.

VOTE: lalalalalalala

[Prolapsed Brain]

Well, rearrange it so she is.

[Prolapsed Brain]

House has been prodded.

House is most likely going to have to be replaced at some point.

House has 10 hours until prod.

He was prodded last Thursday. Do you mean 10 hours until a replacement search begins?

[Prolapsed Brain]

I mean, it's Day 5, and he last posted during Day 3.

[Prolapsed Brain]

I am very frustrated. We have these lurkers, who apparently must be town, because it's SO FUCKING DIFFICULT to get obvscum lalalala lynched.


Seriously, people, stop being scum and lynch some scum.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Wolfie do you have a claim?

I will vote you if that's what you really want but I don't want you to regret it.

There is not one molecule of town motivation in this post.

[Prolapsed Brain]

@MODS: Please prod DeltaWave. Thanks!

[Prolapsed Brain]

looks kinda klingon to me

Do you mean the language or the society?

[Prolapsed Brain]

Okay.

[Prolapsed Brain]

why do you only have 70 posts from gamestart?

I'm not fluffy and verbose like some of you.

Why are 2 of them discussing local urban slang?

Because I'm eclectic.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Why am I the only play still voting lalalalala?

I demand explanations.

[Prolapsed Brain]

I'm more interested in lynching scum than info and

I'm still townreading lala.

You're a really good player. She's not town. This makes me doubt my townread on you.

[Prolapsed Brain]

RC's not giving any help at all here

How about your opinion LaLa?

about...

I'm happy with saying I don't think there are any more scum in your hood, Egg is probably town, you're probably town

now that I'm reading some of FA's stuff it doesn't look too bad

I want to lynch Xtox Taly gave me very scummy vibes

How does this come from town...like seriously.

Can you be specific which part of this you feel isn't town-motivated?


In other news, something is off about SW but I'm not sure what. It just feels weird.

Still lynching lalalalalalala today, though.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Prolapsed, if you admit Silverwolf is "off", why is lala a better lynch?

Even if Silverwolf is town, Xtoxm is probably scum.

Silverwolf is growing more suspicious. I will likely be more willing to move over to her as I think on it.

And I also agree Xtoxmxtmx is scum, because Taly was.

When did Boon claim the ability to commute?

(sigh)

Like, you could iso him, and, you know, CTRL+F commute.

Magic!

[Prolapsed Brain]

Okay, SW may be 'off' (currently) but lalalalala is OFFFFF.

Unnerstan?

[Prolapsed Brain]

thats my offer to

you

specificly, btw.

I am unclear as to why that's to me, specifically, but maybe if I think on it I'll get it.

Unless you want to clarify.

As I said, I'll probably be willing, with more analysis and perhaps rereading, but now it just feels like I'm being bullied, and I have a knee-jerk reaction to that, which is to obstinately refuse. So don't bully me, and we'll be fine.

So the two scum are Silverwolf, lala, and Xtoxm?

Preview edit: the above was to Prolapsed.

Well, you know, three people can fit in two seats if they know each other

really well.....

[Prolapsed Brain]

Is that some sort of ....scumclaim or something?


wat

[Prolapsed Brain]

Okay.

UNVOTE:

VOTE: SilverWolf

[Prolapsed Brain]

I am too lazy to count, don't know if a lynch has happened, so consider this a prodge until we get a Real Vote Count.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Agreed.

[Prolapsed Brain]

lol looks like I'm gonna be mislynched yet again

if town loses this you guys are ridiculously awful

Such lovely AtE.

UNVOTE:


VOTE: lalalalalaladuckyduck

[Prolapsed Brain]

@MOD:

Please Spoiler 3753. It's intrusive and obnoxious, not to mention extremely trollish.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Boon: When you type "L." what does it indicate or signify?

[Prolapsed Brain]

WTF.

Xtoxm, claim.

I have no clue what is happening. Did SW just claim scum with Egg?

[Prolapsed Brain]

Prior to this page, btw, I was going to say something along the lines of "Neither of Boon and dragon can make it to lylo, let's lynch one of them today."

But then this.

The mind, it boggles.

[Prolapsed Brain]

I would rather lynch Xtoxic than Egg. 3 JOATs? Fuck me. With a fire hydrant. Ain't no way.


Xtoxic today, SW tomorrow..... yeah, that sounds good.

VOTE: Xtoxm

[Prolapsed Brain]

Because I feel shenanigans are afoot.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Walk me through this, if you can.

We lynch Egg.... then... who?

[Prolapsed Brain]

Egg just feels SO TOWN to me.

It feels wrong to lynch him.

[Prolapsed Brain]

I honestly don't know.

[Prolapsed Brain]

I hope I don't regret this.


VOTE: Egg


Sorry, Egg (if you're town). Still love you, man.

[Prolapsed Brain]

We should lynch PB

vote: PB

I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME

[Prolapsed Brain]

I am not scum.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Oh FFS, LOL.

Is there some way the mods can just end this now or do we have to go through the motions?

I am not going to waste time and energy fighting a lost cause.

VOTE: Egg

VOTE: SilverWolf

[Prolapsed Brain]

omly 2, scum factions here. its a normal

SK (or any 3rd party) is a scum faction.

[Prolapsed Brain]

Very good point. Xtoxm might have placed her in the confirmed town pool. If she was blocked and a kill went through, the first thing you assume is she couldn't have made the kill. That kind of unpredictable thing is why you don't give up.

Right,

Or he could of figured out I was Ascetic. It's not that big of a stretch. He was very heavily suspecting me.

I doubt that would of gone away.

I think you already know this, if you step back from your stress and think clearly, but: just because one townie, or two townies figure something out, they still have the uphill battle of

convincing the rest of the town.

That's truthfully the most difficult part of being town.

My hatred of lying is part of my problem. Getting stressed easy is another.

These are the perfect skillsets to play mafia!!!


You know I love you, SW, but seriously, start lying and blow off the stress by yelling at idiots. It works for me.

[Prolapsed Brain]

WTF.

Xtoxm, claim.

I have no clue what is happening. Did SW just claim scum with Egg?

There was no outright scumclaim. As you can see here, I had no idea what Wolfie meant.

I think the ban was a bit heavy-handed.

[Prolapsed Brain]

I just want to chime in and let you know that I like you, too, Wolfie.
