Mini 527 - Doom in Valencia - Game Over!

[neko2086]

Happy Bday, gorckat. And to answer your question, my voting style is typically sporadic at first during the random stage and at times when nobody is talking and something needs to get rolling. Afterwards, I like to much more cautious with voting, because I believe one has to have a damn good reason to place a serious vote. Then again, I seem to take votes and FOSs more seriously than others, but I think there's loads of information in them. So for either you or soupfly to jump onto a wagon (if 3 votes in a 12-player game counts as a wagon), I think that's a bit fishy, but not nearly worrisome enough for me to place a vote. I will keep it in mind, though.

That said, soupfly's vote on me is a bit bizarre. Sorry, soupfly, but it's not that obvious to me, and people voting without explanation is getting annoying. It's excusable during random voting, but pretty damn unhelpful later on. So, maybe I'm dense, but would you care to point out the obvious for me, soupfly, and give your reasoning?

[MeMe]

You know, people lynch me for that sort of play aaaaalll the time.

There's no reason to bring your playstyle into this, really. I don't know if you're using this for a voucher for future scum play or whatever the hell, but I don't believe there's any reason for metagame discussion right now.

Interesting.

normally i wouldn't do this cause it defeats the purpose of what i just did, but i'm essentially just putting pressure on you to see how you react. jumping on a wagon gets the person to react in some way. they might panick and lurk. they might overreact and get all defensive. they might ignore it. they might even ask for clarification as in your case. ideally i'd like to have left you hanging a little bit longer while i teased a little more info out of you, but i neither think you're scum nor do i find anything particularly suspicious in your response so...

[Archaist]

You decided pretty quickly there, soupfly. Don't you think that it's a bit unusual to "pressure" someone for just one post? I really don't think that neko2086's post was all that telling one way or another, so I'd like to know how you came to the conclusion that he isn't scum so quickly.

First your speech about your playstyle(which deters us from actual scum hunting) and then a pressure vote for 1 response.

didn't i just say that i wouldn't usually do that and that this is an exception? again, the reason i did is because i felt neko's post was sincere and it was only a random wagon to begin with. also i saw that he registered to play a month ago and i wanted to be helpful and answer what appeared to be a sincere question. of course i could have posted "no i won't" but i thought that it might be obnoxious. if you disagree then feel free to lay your vote where your suspicions are.

[soupfly]

its funny, but sad, that town always suspects the first person who does anything remotely non-random.

This statement about deterring us from actually scum hunting is laughable given your posting history in this game:

Hello everyone, I'm replacing the jester. I'll just need a about a week to catch up in this thread(sarcasm).

Vote:Neko2086

Yeah, page 4 and not one votecount from Jenter is pretty poor.

Neko, I'm voting for MeMe because she's voting for me. So MeMe, why did you vote for me?

That ,my friends, is the definition of an OMGUS vote.

5 posts, no substance. in the future you may want to actually contribute something of substance or even do some scum hunting before calling out out others for

"detering the process of actual scum hunting"

!

[soupfly]

actually it seems to me that SirWario has:

1) lurked in plain sight: posting but with nothing to say
2) has adopted the suspicions of two other players (gorckat and archaist)
3) contradicts himself by saying I'm

deterring the town from scum hunting

when he's essentially done nothing to contribute.

so let me make clear that this is neither a random nor OMGUS vote:

vote: SirWario

on another note, the activity in this game is seriously depressing.

[SirWario]

This game has just exited the random voting stage and your accusing me of not contributing anything. You just said your self the actvity is depressing. Your rant about your playstyle was absolutely unnecessary and brings attention away from our pertinent discussion. It also tries to give you a free pass for later scummy behavior on the excuse that it's simply your "playing style" and you do it as town and scum.

I'm sorry my contribution does not amount to your startling 1 response pressure vote. Now that I believe we are officially out of random stage, I will strive to present more activity to satiate the popular demand.

[Sammich]

I think I'll

vote Soupfly

.


One vote from SirWario and he went off the rails. I'm a little confused at him right now.

[soupfly]

if it will help to get the game going i would welcome you all to join the soupfly wagon.

btw, in case some of you are new to this: scum don't usually tend to put themselves out on the line to get the game started. its safer to lurk in a lifeless game than to try and stir things up. it would be WIFOM for me to point to this as a sign of my towniness so i won't go there. however, this point should be considered in looking at the play (or lack thereof) of others.

ffs post people!

I'm assuming you simply agree with soupfly.

[gorckat]

I'm surprised you found nothing else in the game worth commenting on.

[SirWario]

I'm surprised you found nothing else in the game worth commenting on.

The first three pages of this game were random with little spurts of bickering about the lack of replacements. I see little of importance from page 4 and the only thing that really stuck out to me was soupfly on page 5.

[MeMe]

Players who have made absolutely

no

real contribution to the game so far: Deathguise, McStab, RideTheBomb.

Am I wrong?

[SirWario]

Mcstab hasn't even posted in this game for two weeks. I think some serious prods/replacements are necessary.

Mod, prod deathguise, Mcstab, ridethebomb, selande, and sikario8

[soupfly]

agreed. this sucks.

[RideTheBomb]

Neko, I'm voting for MeMe because she's voting for me. So MeMe, why did you vote for me?

You deserve it.

And what exactly did I do to deserve it?

[Sikario8]

For my first insightful point, I would like to state, declare rather, that souply is scum - it says so right above his avatar. I'd also like to say that this is not my best reasoning; however, it must suffice for the time being.

[gorckat]

Random stage II!

Coming soon to a game near you

[Sammich]

I give Random stage II a 1 out of 5.

[soupfly]

For my first insightful point, I would like to state, declare rather, that souply is scum - it says so right above his avatar. I'd also like to say that this is not my best reasoning; however, it must suffice for the time being.

why are you giving us away? don't you realize that it also says scum above your avatar? its amazing nobody's figured it out yet...

[MeMe]

And what exactly did I do to deserve it?

Read your posts and explain to me why you

don't

deserve to be voted.
