SMITE Role Madness Mafia (OVER AT LAST!)

[Metal Sonic]

Zelink,

Why is your Location in Chinese? Are you Chinese? Can you name a couple of Chinese mythological gods off the top of your head?

[ZeL1nK]

if I'm right.

Also what do you mean, "if I'm right"?

That suggests conviction, whereas apparently I'm only "null/leaning scum". Have I been updated to "probably scum" or do you usually assume you're right about "null/leaning scum" reads? Do you have no stronger reads than "null/leaning scum"?

Because - and feel free to call me crazy - I usually prefer lynching people I think are very likely to be scum, and - again, call me crazy - those people aren't usually null/leaning scum to me. I know, I know, I have a weird way of thinking about things. Perhaps times have changed and I haven't adapted.

[ZeL1nK]

We're just in a very awkward position today because we only have three lynches to choose from and all of them are bad.

Is this because I'm missing something and there are literally only three lynches to choose from?

Or is this like, "well, we could lynch someone else, but we're incredibly lazy, so we're just going to sit around and spam page upon page of banter to make it really hard for the dude replacing in while twiddling our thumbs because we're evil"?

Yes.

What message/s, if any, did you receive upon what I'm assuming was F-16 linking you and Ozgin?

[Metal Sonic]

Oh great, you're ignoring me now. Fine, be that way.

The range of your skills continues to impress me. Is there anything you cannot do?

[Cephrir]

Basically, a message came to tell me that we'd fallen in love and if one of us dies we both do.

However, F16's flip reveals that only lasts for today, so...

[Metal Sonic]

I have asked you questions that you have yet to answer.

[ZeL1nK]

From what little I've read, I think FourTrouble seems like a generally likeable person and is not someone I want to lynch today, but (and please pardon my French) Ozgin does not seem like a good guy and I want to make him deadsies.

But, people seem to be opposed to this idea because they loved the Lion King. I must admit, I have a bit of a soft spot for that movie, too.

So, I don't know what to do. I don't want to read through 200 pages if the choice comes down to me or someone I don't have strong feelings about being a bad person.

[Cephrir]

This day is stupid.

VOTE: No Lynch.

[Metal Sonic]

虽然你的地点是桃源郷，原来你只是个老外の馬鹿！ 哈！グーグル・トランズレイト不会破解我这个秘密言语.

中国帝国万岁！！！

[ZeL1nK]

Please don't speak Korean in game. This is an English forum.

[ZeL1nK]

Is it public information how the lynchpool was decided today? (Has someone claimed it?)

Is no lynch actually an option?

[Cephrir]

It was farside's fault.

I believe it is an option, as Skybird was voting it and that showed up in the count.

[Metal Sonic]

SMITE is multicultural. Gods from all over the world play this game. So I suppose, just for this game, the language barrier can be broken.

No Lynch. Is never. An option.

[ZeL1nK]

From a theory standpoint, it's not such a bad option to no-lynch given there's two anti-town players dead and no town players dead. The idea that you must lynch every day seems like a rather silly concept. Like putting a use-by date on sour cream. Is it really necessary? What purpose does it serve? Are they worried it's going to go sour?

Though I suppose this is dependent on whether you think there's a decent chance that either my slot or FourTrouble's slot is scum.

I'll read through FourTrouble's ISO properly and then probably vote no lynch unless something changes my mind.

[Cephrir]

That's a good idea and everyone voting him probably needs to do it, especially if they haven't read the thread Espeonage.

We're in a good enough position, and seemingly have enough vigs, that we should be able to get away with a no lynch.

Negative. From a theory standpoint, it is a necessity to lynch every day unless the game is in a state of Mylo with 1 or more conf-towns. Every day is a wealth of discussion; wagons highlight the opinions, motivations and beliefs of every player; a lynch confirms or destroys theories about the gamestate that may have been formed during the day. All lynches give information and reveal another part of the puzzle to help the better players solve the game. If you don't lynch a scummy player today, he will still be a mislynch candidate for the next day. And the next. And the next. Because the scum will not find it worthwhile to kill this player, unless he has revealed himself to be a threatening Power Role.

The game has already gone sour. It's time to take out the trash.

nah we're bloodthirsty

[ZeL1nK]

Ah, I forgot, I'm dealing with someone who has already mastered the art of scum hunting.

Pray tell, good sir, what information do you think we'd gain if it's not even possible to lynch a scum player?

[Cephrir]

Your theory doesn't account for gladiates.

[Metal Sonic]

Your theory doesn't account for gladiates.

It's still polarizing. Town try to figure out which of the 3 is scum; scum dont really give a fart
