Title: MotK Psycho Plot Mafia ~ Game Over, Town Win
Post by: Serela on October 07, 2010, 04:34:15 PM
A person was walking down the road, alone.
They were still upset, after all this time.
Upset over something almost frivolous. However,
that frivolous something had caused them to realize what they really wanted.
And that want only grew over time.
They would stop at nothing now, to get it.
But... they needed a plan, and they didn't have one.

Then they saw it.
Lying in a ditch, on the side of the road.
It must have fallen off whatever it's owner was travelling on, they thought.
They opened the bag they had found, and gasped at it's contents.
The items inside would give them an advantage no one would ever think of.
All they had to do what utilize this find well, and they would obtain their dream.
"Yes... if this works, no one will ever realize what I'll have done."
And so, lost in their desire, the person began to plot.

Rules! (Paraphrased from Werewolf rules)
Even if you know normal mafia rules, at least skim and read the bold parts.

1.Day phases are 72 hours, Night Phases will last a minimum of 24 hours; but, Night will go up to 48 hours if all actions have not been sent in. For this reason, if you aren't using any night action you may have, please TELL ME you are not using it that night.

Pseudo-LyLo days, where the game may or may not end that day due to roles, will last 120 hours.
True Lylo, where the game will DEFINITELY end unless scum is lynched, has no time limit.

2.One 24-hour extension to a day may be granted if a majority of living players vote for it. And by one, I mean only one during the course of the game, not just once per day.

3.Do not edit or delete your posts. Do not quote anything from the mod, such as your role pm or any night action results. Do not try to gain information in any unfair manners or by questionable means.

4.Votes are placed with the syntax ##Vote:[Player], in bold preferably. A player must ##Unvote before a new vote can be counted.  The day will end with the lynch when one player has a majority of the votes of living players. However, you can keep talking until a mod actually tells you to shut up because the majority has been reached.

If the time limit is hit with no majority being reached, and there is one person one vote away from a lynch, they will be lynched.
If there are two people tied at one or two votes away from a lynch, the game will enter sudden death.
If there are no L-1 players or L-1/2 ties, there will be NO LYNCH.

5.Lynched players can make a "bah" post before the next day starts, and nightkilled players can do the same during the day after they are killed. Otherwise dead players must stfu. "Bah" posts may not contain anything that will actually influence the game, such as analysis on players or info you obtained through your role.

6.Except where explicitly stated elsewhere in a player's role PM, all communication regarding the game should be kept purely to the public game thread. Private messages and IRC conversations about the game while it is in progress are forbidden. Unless they are private messages to the mod, which are fine.

7.Please post at least once every 24 hours in the game topic. If you don't, you will be prodded by the mod. If you continue to not post after a prod, you will be modkilled.

8.Players unable to continue playing may replace out by request or by mod decision. If a replacement is not found within a suitable amount of time, they will be modkilled instead.

9.The mod reserves the right to change or introduce any rules as needed for the sake of the game.

10.Play nice, kiddies. Don't be a jerk.

Title: Re: MotK Psycho Plot Mafia ~ Role PMs being written
Post by: Serela on October 07, 2010, 04:42:44 PM
Several MotK members had just recieved mailed invitations for a previously unannounced mafia game, that would take place in an old abandoned mansion on a hill. People who weren't invited were allowed to join, as well.

Pesco was a bit ticked off, as all mafia games were supposed to wait for their turn in the queue! Damn rebels trying to undermine his rules; he was going to show the host of this mafia game what's what, that's for sure. Huhwhat stormed off to the mansion as well, seeing as this mansion mafia was interrupting the signups for HIS game that had been about to start!

However, many others were intrigued. An old abandoned mansion would provide interesting atmosphere for a game of mafia. And so, the invited people, along with some mafia regulars and a few others, went to the mansion to participate in the game.

As the time appointed in the invitations drew closer, more people arrived at the mansion, until 13 had arrived. And as the last one entered, the doors to the mansion slammed shut; and wouldn't open again. A lack of Huhwhat being there was noted by some...

Then voice came on through the intercom system that had been newly installed in the mansion for the game; by the host, apparently. "Well then, now that we're all here, we can get started, shall we? There are thirteen rooms up the stairs that you may use while here; only one person per room, please! Inside each room is also a box containing your role for the mafia game, and anything that might come with your role. Day One will start in a few hours. Have fun settling in!"


The intercom shut off. The voice had been artificially changed, that was obvious; so still no one could tell who the host was; nor where they were. One by one, they all went up the dusty yet still grandoise staircase, and chose a room for themselves, each discovering their role and whatever came with it; some of the players doing so with ulterior motives in mind.

"Well, this should be interesting."


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

Still have to type up half of the role pms, then I'll send em out and unlock the thread to start confirmation! I'll try to get that done today, although for me, saying that might not be worth much.

Please wait warmly~

Please confirm in thread as you receive your role pm. WITH YOUR MAFIADUMMY ACCOUNT, please :3

Also, two things I want to say; first, there's several newbies playing this game. Second, people may use more then one night action per night phase, if they have more then one.

Hello players. Look at your account. Now back to me. Now back to your account. Now back to me. Sadly, it isn't me. But with this brand new text adventure, it can look like me. Look down. Back up. Where are we? We're in a Mafia game with the player your player could play like. What's in your PM Inbox? Back at me. It's in my PM Inbox, with a role PM giving the role you love. Look again. The role is now a supercop! Anything is possible when you play like me and not like an idiot. I'm posting a confirmation.

Like, post again to point out what you messed up/word whatever better/add more, instead of editing the original post.

Look down. Back up. Where are you? You're in a game with serious votes on the table. Now look again. There's a new vote with only joke reasoning and no real opinions! That's not gonna fly here, mister. Don't start none, won't be none.

I hope she and especially the real wrathie don't get too mad at what I've been typing up under this name. Or what's to come in the future. Oh dear gods. But I digress...

Ya rly. We're past RVS at this point so I expect people to have a little more backing their vote than 'why not'.  So it's scummy to tell people they should put effort into scumhunting and avoid throwing votes out haphazardly?


And christ, I thought Gamzee had an obnoxious typing style, but this takes the cake, Wrathie. Eve votes someone for hopping on a bandwagon and providing no contribution otherwise. Nub or not, this doesn't serve town, and it's also leaps and bounds better than a randomvote.

Also, I think somewhere in that fluffy mess of a post I saw you accusing me of cheerleading. How what why? ??? Who exactly was I cheering on? Are you sure you know what it means to cheerlead in a mafia sense?

"There's scumhunting to do, so chop chop!" sounds like a cheesy attempt to goad people into action without actually feeling that urgency yourself - like "you do it; I'll play activity police".  I mean really, "chop chop"?  At least Ha ha, old chap! is fashionable.  Chop chop just sounds forced.

I 100% agree with Wrathie about Trance.  He's an easy target Eve picked out for an equally easy vote.  We've already been warned that there are a bunch of newbies running around this game, and Trance is basically confirmed newb.

Cheesy third vote reasoning too.

Wrathie's posting style is amazing.  I read his posts twice because... let's leave that sentence there, actually.

Third votes have traditionally been a 'Sure why not' thing. It's not like we have anywhere better to go; the resulting argument over it tends to stir up enough crap.

These posting restrictions are going to get very obfuscating, very fast, too. :/

Post by: Decade on October 09, 2010, 10:08:06 PM
I agree. There really isn't a whole lot of "scumhunting" to be done with so little on the table, and GODrake looks suspect as a result. Piling votes on someone is a good way to get some discussion going, so at the moment I don't see a need to chide Trance for it.

So let me get this straight.. you're voting me because I chided someone for providing 0 explanation for their bandwagon vote, and because I said "Chop chop"? :/ Or is it because I questioned Wrathie's defense? You did say you "hate everything about this post", after all. What was the problem with that then?

The reason I questioned Wrathie's defense (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg457031.html#msg457031) is because he didn't exactly give a reason WHY he was defending Trance there. Though apparently, questioning that warrants a vote (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg457552.html#msg457552) with the answer, because i'm 'cheerleading'. Hmm.

Feeling confident that either you or Wrathie is scum. Doubtful that you both are because it feels absurd to me that scum would tie themselves to each other, but I suppose weirder things have happened. Leaning a little more towards Wrathie right now pending a response to my queries from last post.

##Unvote
##Vote: Omega Wrathie



These posting restrictions are going to get very obfuscating, very fast, too. :/

I fail to see anything consistent and strongly hinting at a posting restriction on Wrathie's part, unless it's a cumulative "act like you've ingested a pint of vodka before each post".

Trance is obviously one of the newbies, NeoSarela basically confirmed it from that post. Note that there are may be more than one, since he did use the word "Newbies".

Doubtful that you both are because it feels absurd to me that scum would tie themselves to each other, but I suppose weirder things have happened.

So that situation is could be pretty likely, assuming one of them is new.

But go on, tell me why we're both scum together.  While you're at it, tell me why you brought the prospect up if you weren't ready to vote one of us.  I'm all ears.

wrathie's vote was already on you long before the post you linked.

Wrathie's [urlhttp://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg456744.html#msg456744]original vote[/url] on me was a randomvote, which shifted into a serious vote at the time of the post I linked.

This post doesn't say anything about Kilga, who was ~*~third on your wagon~*~ for no particularly explicit reason.   Why not chide him? :P

So the lines of text immediately preceding his vote (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg457701.html#msg457701) don't count as an explicit reason? Third on the wagon be damned, Kilga's reasons for having a vote on me are better than yours and Wrathie's combined.

third on the wagon has never been a big deal for me, so whateva.

But well, Drake, I had a third vote given to me by Violentia on the first page without reasoning (which I think it's fine), but why didn't you raise this over that?  Not likely to explain much, since they're the same person, but you're going to have to do more than just implicating people as scum for suspecting you.   

But ending RVS to me takes a little bit of town effort, so I'm actually much more wary on Kilga for jumping on the bandwagon without much reasoning; how is chiding Trance and encouraging scumhunting scummy by itself?  I don't agree with what donut is saying, but at least his reasoning seems more extensive to showing why he is scum.

##Unvote
##Vote: Kilgajesus

pesco and mode need to put in more than commentary too.  Especially pesco, who doesn't look so good with that final quote.

Quote from: Kilga
I agree. There really isn't a whole lot of "scumhunting" to be done with so little on the table, and GODrake looks suspect as a result. Piling votes on someone is a good way to get some discussion going, so at the moment I don't see a need to chide Trance for it.
That's what he said; this is what I read:
Quote
I don't have anything better to do and Drake looks scummy because nobody else does <note lack of WHY Drake is suspicious>, so BANDWAGON

Off-topic, linking posts seems kind of inefficient to me.

Drake's so far, "give a reason" for voting really seems like a taunt everyone to begin talking and throwing random accusations around when drawing attention to himself seems odd.

What sort of reason did i have to vote kilga other than that "Bandwagon" vote being tossed around over and over.

if i had a reason i would obviously explain myself and why i chose that person to be lynched~

@Slabes: There was little to go on at the time. It's natural people don't have a lot to say at game start. Telling people to go scumhunt is superfluous right now because there is little scum to see for all there is to hunt. Given the alternatives, voting GODrake takes point.

Look at Drake. Now back at Donut. Now back at Drake. Now back at Donut. Sadly, I suspect this to be a town vs. town argument. Look at Post 35. Now at Post 36. Now back to Drake. It is hard to accuse him of cheerleading when he already has a serious vote down on another player for reasons that are at least somewhat similar. Even real men like me cannot always have votes down in tow places at once. On the other side of the coin, I do not detect ill will in Donut's points against Drake. They may be mistaken, but simple mistakenness is not a sign of unmanliness.

Now look at Post 52. Mode is more suspect than either Drake or Donut, as shesubtly pokes part of the main argument along without getting actively involved in the fight. What's that in her hand? A joke vote! She still holds onto it at this point despite serious discussion clearly on the table.

##Unvote, ##Vote: Mode

SWAN DIVE! Into Post #3, where the mod says "several newbies", unquestionably indicating that there are, indeed, multiple new players. The ladies love a player that reads well. They also love a player that uses their vote, as well as one that doesn't let up with existing pressure votes when their target has yet to respond. Pesco needs to step his game up if he wants to get the ladies, because he's not doing any of these.

Are you suggesting I should ignore bad votes because they're on the person I'm currently voting?

I was just posting the bit at the end of my last post to make sure nobody forgets that there might be more than 1 newbie. From Purvis' post, its obvious that there is more than 1 now.

From Drake's posts, I think he is just a townie who gathered the wrong kind of attention,and Kuruminut happened to jump on him. Kilga I think is trying to feed fuel to the fire between the 2. Kilga jumps into the bandwagon, makes makes some weak arguments (weaker than usual anyway) and doesn't explain why voting Drake out is top priority. Feels pretty scummy to me.

@Kuruminut: Why are Drake's posts contentposts now, but not before?

@Pescohax: Did I ever say "vote him out"? I said voting him was the best thing on the table. There are no alternatives to me. I earnestly believe that Drake has done nothing to add to scumhunting. Telling people to scumhunt right at the ending stages of RVS is faking participation. It's better to pile on someone and create discussion than to tell people to scumhunt and stifle discussion, or try and make them screw up by fakehunting.

The idea is that he could keep up a running argument. 

Looking back at it I might be letting him off easily though :\  But we can come back to him if needs be.

You keep talking about "alternatives".  What do you mean when you say "there are no alternatives to me"?

We were still in RVS at that point so I was still being tolerant of joke reasonings, and I saw something more questionable in Pesco's post preceding mine that I felt was worth a serious vote.

Also not moving my vote off Wrathie currently because his last two posts failed to back up his accusations of me 'cheerleading'.

Telling people to scumhunt right at the ending stages of RVS is faking participation. It's better to pile on someone and create discussion than to tell people to scumhunt and stifle discussion, or try and make them screw up by fakehunting.

You really think i've been trying to stifle discussion all this time? I'm frankly amazed that there's such a fuss over the fact I told someone there's scumhunting to do. Context is key here. What I saw in Val's vote post (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg457440.html#msg457440) was nothing more than a randomvote with an offhand comment of 'there's nothing better to do'. Replying to that with 'there's scumhunting to do' was my way of saying  'it's time get serious now, RVS is over'.



So... how long after the prod do Sana/Alice have, anyway? It's been what, almost 36 hours since the start of the game and they haven't posted yet?

Or, I guess Pesco has given us something now, and it fails to impress. I obviously disagree that I am trying to fuel a fire here.

@GODrake: Then you should say it that way.

Post by: Ryuki on October 10, 2010, 04:25:06 AM
God damn, I feel like everyone is speaking a foreign language this game.

So, Trance does something idiot town and drops out. Eve drops a punishing vote for it, and also drops out. Wrathie defends Trance's right to be an idiot, since it's obvious he's new. Drake then suspects Wrathie, and then a pointless argument occurs where Wrathie and Donut throw random day one scumhunting buzzwords at Drake who ends up having to throw them back since there's not much else you can use for defense on day one.

The worst part is, in this entire scenario, Eve is probably the most scummy out of everyone I mentioned so far.

Quote from: Slabes #58
but you're [GODrake] going to have to do more than just implicating people as scum for suspecting you.
To be fair to Drake here, at the time he made his claim that one of them were scum, no one else was discussing anything. There was nothing to pin on others then.

Easy modo and Pesco are both policy lynch worthy. Mode failed to add anything insight worthy, and failed ven harder to mention other people in his post. He's still hanging onto his jokevote.

Pesco comes off much worse. He leaves his vote off, which helps nothing. He reports useless information others have already known and discussed (That Trance is likely a newbie) and he even goes as far as cheerleading Drake's suggestion that one of Wrathie or Donut are scum by suggesting they both could be. I can't possibly see what use that last part could be except for a hopeful prod for unnecessary lynches.
##Vote: Pescohax

Kilga already caught this himself, but it's also weirdly annoying how Pesco suddenly had an opinion on Kilgamayan's vote when he didn't during the post I talked about above. I'd like to see an explanation for this.

tl:dr I vote Eve, could change to kilga, pesco, or mode but we still got jikan. !planation to drake is below.

lets see here. time to type by impulse. *sip* feels good mang. here we go.

page 2... *chug* page 3, lol twitter post at the top. admit it, its clever. YEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAa! *chug*

Kilga heyzeus: you look fishy cuz you just lazily add on to the bandwagon, no personal input of ur own. you didnt really need to add your vote when nuttynut and i already had points you could expand on. really, whats the diff between 2 votes and 3 votes outta 7? thats the shameless bandwagonning ebil claims trancy was doing, but blatantly wors.

yo pruvis dawg, i finally kno what your talking about. friend of mine linked it to me. fucking grover is hilarious. wish i knew about it before. *chug* im rueing that im out of sour apple pucker. my next drink is gonna be just glenlivit and cranberry and its not gonna be as pleasant.

i dun care about nebiews, only bewbies. and catching scum.

oh good, the part i knew i had to type about. drake: to start, the ebil post was bad. not good. check the timestamp. 6 mins after trancy's vote is ebil one's. *chug* yaaa.... 6 mins. and vote reason is blanket statement about shameless badnwagon hop WIDTHOUT opinion on weather (hee hee intentional type-o go!), trance was being scummy or if it could habv been a townie mistake. evey is too knee-jerk in that post. i wish she would jerk.... uh... nvm. can the mod ban me for sexual harrassment? *sip* so yea, how does this apply to you drake? after donut's vote on you, i followed his lead a bit. your statement about me in numero 47 about evey having one of the better serious votes along with not pressing too hard on either thing was enough to make my vote on yu serious. thats what i think of about you cheerleading. i dun think you looked at the bigger picture about teh ebil one. care to disagree? *sip*

debonair inane genius: dull and uninteresting cases doesn't mean not worth pursing.

it's alice! *sip* *read* looks like the real alice too! jerk, stop lurking and then writing decent posts which in no way lessens the suspicion around you because it's the lurkaholic speaking. At least it gives you a pass from the Lurkaholics Anonymous League (LAL). i obv like the evey point. pity you didn't vote on it.

done. no, not with the post. with my drink. brb, refill.

ok lesse. well, the case on #drakeforpromqueen is still possible, but more likely i will leave it alone for today. people not as interested in crowning drakey queenie.

##Unvote: GODrake

Yea, I claim first vote on evey. im really not that drunk rgiht now, just loose. so i don't feel like racking my brain to cue up a shot at any of the ⑨ balls out there in kilgy-poo, pesky pesco, kimoi easy modo, or whoever else. theyre fair targets, but not want to think about if they're a correct target yet.

* FoS: Kuruminut for double standard in regards to trying to get a Drake lynch train going and then quickly trying to jump on the Kilga one.
* ##Vote: Valentia really :|-worthy defense of Donut's antics; not posting anything actually serious so far, deliberately trying to zoom around under the radar.
* Don't think Drake is scum atm. I don't think Kilga is either.
* If you're going to hop on a bandwagon at least give it some thought and try and make it a productive thing rather than happy-go-lucky hoppage. (Kilga was totally straightforward with this.)
* Seriously these posting styles jaiodfjklasdjfiafjdkaldsf

PS: e we

Analyzing the post train:

RVS (whatever that means - random vote shit?) ended here:

##Unvote
##Vote: Violentia


Third on the train is scum.

<NeoSerela>Fix'd that code for you :3

This is followed up by Donut:

Actually I'm not sure if Pesco was referring to the thread as a whole or Sana Spice, but either way, it's not like he's adding anything.

Before I go there, though, I'm more sure of the "third on the train" argument being more likely to be made by scum than Town.
##Unvote: Alice
##Vote: Kilga


Come on, DRAW VOTE WITH ME

Underlined sentence arguably sounds like the very same thing he votes Drake for a few posts later:

"There's scumhunting to do, so chop chop!" sounds like a cheesy attempt to goad people into action without actually feeling that urgency yourself - like "you do it; I'll play activity police".  I mean really, "chop chop"?  At least Ha ha, old chap! is fashionable.  Chop chop just sounds forced.

I 100% agree with Wrathie about Trance.  He's an easy target Eve picked out for an equally easy vote.  We've already been warned that there are a bunch of newbies running around this game, and Trance is basically confirmed newb.

Cheesy third vote reasoning too.

Wrathie's posting style is amazing.  I read his posts twice because... let's leave that sentence there, actually.

You're not exempt from your own flimsy reasoning.

##vote Kilga

What the shit bandwagon hop?

##vote kilga

sure why not not like i have much else to do~

guysssssss we ended the random voting shit as soon as someone pulled out '3rd is scum' theory

(and tbf at least in my mafia experience, 3rd is scum is usually pulled out by town, but I could be leagues under others here)

Seeing as you just made the third vote on Kilga and we already have serious votes on the table, I'd like to see better justification than 'I have nothing better to do'. There's scumhunting to do, so chop chop.

Also, seriously raising an eyebrow at Wrathie defending Trance there. Why, when it's one of the better serious votes on the table right now?

Totally coherent post; provokes Donut suddenly dropping off the Kilga bandwagon and attacking Drake with a very flimsy case  that he just used himself (see previous post).

Ya rly. We're past RVS at this point so I expect people to have a little more backing their vote than 'why not'.

Also, I think somewhere in that fluffy mess of a post I saw you accusing me of cheerleading. How what why? ??? Who exactly was I cheering on? Are you sure you know what it means to cheerlead in a mafia sense?

Former: Agree.

Latter: This is still unanswered (at least in any way I can make sense of). I can't find 'cheerleading' in the context of Mafia save for a 'how to have a successful cheerleading audition' in the Mafiascum Strategy Guides. ( :| ) So please answer this.

This is followed by the following exchange:

So let me get this straight.. you're voting me because I chided someone for providing 0 explanation for their bandwagon vote, and because I said "Chop chop"? :/ Or is it because I questioned Wrathie's defense?

All of the above and a little more! :3

wrathie's vote was already on you long before the post you linked.
This post doesn't say anything about Kilga, who was ~*~third on your wagon~*~ for no particularly explicit reason.   Why not chide him? :P

Former: While Day1 is unusual in the grand scheme of building cases, one should at least attempt to put themselves out there.

Otherwise: I agree with Drake's response to this (lost the post this is getting long orz). Kilga is trying to at least get some discussion going; he isn't acting suspicious and hypocritical about it, either.

Humz,

Well my joke was for a hellofit to begin with. not like there was many talking going on but oh well.

Drake's so far, "give a reason" for voting really seems like a taunt everyone to begin talking and throwing random accusations around when drawing attention to himself seems odd.

What sort of reason did i have to vote kilga other than that "Bandwagon" vote being tossed around over and over.

if i had a reason i would obviously explain myself and why i chose that person to be lynched~

This whole thing is followed up by Valentia defending Donut's flimsy case using the same double standard. Also further inconspicuous crowd-surfing of doom.

* FoS: Kuruminut for double standard in regards to trying to get a Drake lynch train going and then quickly trying to jump on the Kilga one.

I should clarify here; 'double standard' is regarding the 'lol Drake is obv. trying to herd people' (heavily paraphrased) thing that he seems to try to seriously pull off with half-arsed arguments (and shady backup) without anyone noticing that he's just as guilty of it.

Main reason I'm FoSing instead of voting is because Valentia bugs me more (unrelated to the 'V3 is scum' thing) and because really when you come down to it, even if Kuruminut tried to pull the same thing Drake supposedly did, both of the justifications are just so bad it's just not worth pursuing in comparison to other potential cases.

Aside from not seeing any buzzwords in my posts, I can't really take this seriously coming from someone who said "policy lynch" later in the same post.  Never mind that policy lynches aren't for people who are experienced and holding back.

These aren't saying the same thing.  The first is an obvious call to bandwagon.  The second is an obvious call to "scumhunt", whatever that means when you're tearing down the first attempt at a non-joke bandwagon.  They're both attempts to "herd" people, sure, but at least I could tell you what I wanted done.

Also, summary wallposts aren't cool.  They don't tell me much because I read the topic, and they slow me down from seeing that you didn't say anything about Pesco.

I think cheerleading here is meant to mean the same thing as egging on a fight you're not in.  It's kind of like taking a side, except without being remembered much later as taking a side and without having to put out any effort to support that side.

A while ago I said that the Drake vs. me fight was more likely Town vs. Town.  The related note that I obviously hinted at was that I suspected that me vs. Kilga was too, but I wanted to look into it.  We're running out of time, so I may as well drop that for Today.  Basically I agree with Wrathie--

**Eve's vote was opportunistic.  I'm really not liking the idea of lynching someone who has made one scummy post early in the game and then vanished, though, at least not today.
**Pesco artlessly dodged out of his insinuation that me and Wrathie could be scum together through a technicality.  His next post gives a more or less precise version of what I had just gotten done saying with a Kilgavote.  Post 82 reminds me of why I didn't like Kilga in the first place, but given Kilga's rigid "no alternatives" PoV I'm more inclined to say Pesco still looks worse.
**Mode has probably been here more or less the whole time but only posted nonpassively because he was starting to come under fire.  Point on Valentia aside, I'm not a fan of the catch-up post and not just because I'm the one targeted by it.
**Alicepost is very Alice-like.  One post, expertly timed, mostly factually correct, intelligent-sounding.  That's obviously not going to get lynched today but I don't trust it.
**The point on Valentia coasting isn't terrible but I think it would be better to wait until Tomorrow to see if anything redeeming comes out.
**I still don't feel great about Kilga but I don't think I'm on the right track.

@Pescohax: Trying to make it seem as if we're the same is cute, but misguided. The post in question has you unvote Sana, and then iterate that there are newbies in the game. You do not participate in the game until your next post, which is a repeat that there are newbies, and then finally an opinion on the current happenings. I'll note this line in particular:
Quote
makes some weak arguments (weaker than usual anyway)
Using meta in an anonymous game is bad form, but using it as a reason for supporting one of your major reasons for voting me makes it look more scummy than just bad form.

I concentrated on GODrake until I felt that he no longer warranted my concentration. This is unlike taking focus off everyone, making an empty and meaningless post, and then make a vote.

Gosh guys I think I got lost on my way to the thread and somehow you ended up with some confusing business! I'll do the best that I can to catch up but sorry if I accidentally overlook something!

Eve is kinda weird since her post kinda makes sense, but then she goes and vanishes when called out. It's hard to say what she could be with just that post but I'd like to think she's more on the town side!

Moving on to Drake's "chop chop" post which I'd say was just worded suspiciously, so it makes sense that Donut called him out for it. I agree with people about Kilga bandwagoning though, so I'd say Kilga is the most suspicious by the end of page 2.

Val seems like she's newb, looking at how she voted Slaves and didn't unvote before moving on to Kilga! (Both are jokeposts by the way) So anything that looks suspicious could be potentially passed off for newb/bad play, so I won't target her until we've got some more stuff.

Wrathie's posts are kind of confusing!

Looking at page 3 now, Pesco's posts make him look like he was being cautious. Still suspicious of Kilga.

Hi Alice! Alice makes his post all smart-like but what's weird is that he votes the same person as Kilga does, but fails to take note of the Kilga case, whose wagon is arguably one of the more prominent ones. >:<

OH MAN I JUST REALIZED EVE L. DUEHR = EVILDOER. :O

Wrathie is kind of cool despite being impossible to read! He stays kinda consistent with his case, although I disagree with the case on Eve. :<

It's kinda funny how Mode draws connections between Donut and Val considering the Donut x Val shenanigans that went on a while ago from Inaba Game! But I still want to pass off Val's posts as newb.

I'm pretty sure I skipped over a lot of stuff and I didn't really contribute too much, but for now I think that Kilga is the better lynch for today!

##Vote: Kilga
Title: Re: MotK Psycho Plot Mafia ~ Day 1, start!
Post by: Kiva-la on October 10, 2010, 06:56:56 PM
Mask is coming off for this post, since time is starting to wind down and I want to be as clear as possible.

Not liking Sana's latest post here, it seems unnecessarily reportery and fluffy and his only reason for voting Kilga is because he bandwagoned, which has been discussed plenty and I happen to agree with Kilga and Mode that he explained himself to satisfaction. Hell, I thought he explained himself to satisfaction in his purported bandwagon vote post. Not being the first person on a train does not make someone scummy - I want to see a better case than that. Why was he mindlessly bandwagoning instead of making a thought-out vote that just happened to have other people on the train first?

##Unvote, ##Vote: Pesco

I probably should have done this to begin with instead of making the Mode stopover, but even if my vote didn't belong here before, it certainly does now.

Vote is coming off of Mode for posting something worthwhile, though I kinda think that ultimately landing on Valentia is a meaningless gesture at an easy target. (Though I suppose there certainly is enough turnaround time that the unexpected could still happen.) I kinda wish her vote had landed on Donut and not Valentia after she spent most of her post admonishing Donut but that may just be personal preference speaking.

Vote moves to Pesco for all the reasons I stated prior. (Look at Post 65. Now at Post 69. Now back to me.) Tacked onto that now is his "defense" against Kilga's delay accusation, where he accuses Kilga of the same thing. The difference in those two cases is that Kilga's vote had been sitting on Drake prior, and it is fairly obvious that the Drake unvote stemmed from Drake's explanatory post. In short, something important-to-Kilga's-vote-status happened between Kilga's two posts, whereas nothing important-to-Pesco's-vote-status happened between Pesco's two posts. This is a non-defense against a good accusation, and piling this on top of Pesco's other transgressions tells me that he's the best lynch candidate for today.

Also I will admit an extra bit of wariness with Sana's very sketchy vote on someone I think to be town pushing that person ahead of someone I think to be scum.

Post by: Kiva-la on October 10, 2010, 07:03:35 PM
EBWOP: For the record, "personal preference" refers to Mode spending most of her post on breaking down Donut's argument and then veering off and voting Valentia instead. It does not refer to whom I would rather see lynched.

I'm lumping all three together due to inactivity; Pesco has responded more (Sana just did too) than the others, but the responses were subpar which is one of the reasons he's being voted for.

If we're coming down on Pesco or Kilga at this point (there's still some time left) I still think Kilga's a townie. We'll see if anything changes.

Jeez, a  lot happened while I was gone. I'll try to keep this light without skipping too much, but go ahead and ask if you want me to weigh in on anything specific that I missed.

Re: Wrathie

oh good, the part i knew i had to type about. drake: to start, the ebil post was bad. not good. check the timestamp. 6 mins after trancy's vote is ebil one's. *chug* yaaa.... 6 mins. and vote reason is blanket statement about shameless badnwagon hop WIDTHOUT opinion on weather (hee hee intentional type-o go!), trance was being scummy or if it could habv been a townie mistake. evey is too knee-jerk in that post. i wish she would jerk.... uh... nvm. can the mod ban me for sexual harrassment? *sip* so yea, how does this apply to you drake? after donut's vote on you, i followed his lead a bit. your statement about me in numero 47 about evey having one of the better serious votes along with not pressing too hard on either thing was enough to make my vote on yu serious. thats what i think of about you cheerleading. i dun think you looked at the bigger picture about teh ebil one. care to disagree? *sip*

I actually didn't notice the timestamp. Though, in light of that Eve's actions also seems to me more like being overeager to find something that would allow her to slap a non-randomvote on the table. I still don't think that alone makes her the number 1 suspect, though disappearing off the face of the earth makes her look worse.

 And the reason I pressed you and Val only to the extent that I did was because I felt like they were things that needed to be addressed, but it wasn't something yet worth moving my vote for. I still don't see how questioning people = cheerleading. Still a little leery of you, but satisfied enough to turn my attention elsewhere.

##Unvote

Also... do you seriously have to keep typing like that? >_>; Bogging down your posts with hard-to-read fluff does not help Town, and I doubt that it's a posting restriction what with the style inconsistency.



Re: Major bandwagons

I'm feeling much better about Kilga right now over Pesco. Kilga hasn't shied away from posting, he asks a lot of good questions, and his reasoning makes sense. Pesco on the other hand.. I generally agree with others' stances on Pesco, but here's something that stood out to me. Unsure if it's been mentioned already, but worth rehashing in my own words either way.

As I said in the other post, weak argument that feels like you are trying to hide the fact that you are jumping onto the wagon.

Speaking of weak arguments, this in particular really seems like reaching. I don't see how Kilga's vote and argument can be considered an attempt to hide the bandwagon hop,. And you never weighed in an opinion about Kuruminut (or Wrathie's) vs me despite our altercation being the staging ground for Kilga's supposed scummy behavior. Nor did you say what your actual thoughts were on Kuruminut or even any reasoning whatsoever as to why you think either of us were Town over Kilga!

##Vote: Pescohax




Re: Everything Else

Val's reasoning from her last post (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg457793.html#msg457793) #61 just feels like sloppy reasoning to vote me.

Drake's so far, "give a reason" for voting really seems like a taunt everyone to begin talking and throwing random accusations around when drawing attention to himself seems odd.

Talking serves town, and how is getting people to talk possibly a bad thing? Same thing with prodding people to justify their votes. The only thing that seems odd to me here is why you possibly see that as odd.


What else. Oh hey, look. Sana decloaks after over 55 hours since the game started. Schfifty-five. That's more than five tens, and that's just ridiculously terrible. Then again, with both Eve and Trance being MIA for 43 hours, and Alice choosing to make her first post 43 hours into D1... I don't even know where to begin singling out people for lurking. To be quite honest, it irritates me just thinking about it. Is there a superdoc that can mass-protect from modkills or something? :/

Making bad posts counts as inactivity?  Strange world.  And there was a second question affixed to the one you quoted that was more relevant but just fell off the radar.

Given that there are only about 12 hours left and most of them are overnight in North America, I don't see the wisdom in not pushing a wagon forward.

Post by: Skull on October 11, 2010, 01:38:07 AM
you all get a reprieve in posting style as i am a bit preoccupied. don't worry; standard programming will resume tomorrow.

kilga's bandwagon hop due to lack of alternatives is meh, but pesco's reluctance to vote at post #55 after said hop, then voting after being verbally prodded by others looks more like a classic day 1 scum act.

pesco's vote in #72 is pretty low on content given he acknowledged he needed to actually vote. quick one-liner about how he thinks drake might be a townie. blanket statement considering the earlier debate about drake. gets on kilga's case for the proper reasons, but the whole post feels hollow when he could have voted earlier. also, in between #55 and #72, drake only made 1 post, #57, which was more of a clarification of his wrathie vote than anything else as well as a weird statement about how kilga's vote is better than nut's and mine's. if that's so, there would be some weird disconnect in why drake would say a person who you think is the one worth voting for had the best vote on drake; something you never addressed.

kilga later made the explanations for his actions and his progression from the drake vote to the pesco vote feels more earnest from #63-77.

given the 2 choices, i'm prepared to vote pesco, but will hold off on the L-1 vote in case one of trance or ebil or whoever else happens to drop in and haphazardly votes. i'm sure we'd all like pesco to roleclaim too. let's hear it.

Sorry for the late response and inactivity, but I like taking my time with meaningful discussions, getting the full story before I put my two cents into it. Also, because I was reminded of what little time I have left.

Reading through this topic, it was all summarized by pretty much everyone on pages 3 and 4. So I will hold back on summarizing everything that has happened thus far. In other words, too long, didn't read, on to what I have to say.

First off

##Unvote Kilga

Now, on to Pescohax, who is the center of all the fire.

He has obviously tried to get something going against Kilga, but once he went under fire, he couldn't keep up something convincing. Out of everyone, he seems most like scum. So, without further ado,

Post by: Serela on October 12, 2010, 10:18:12 PM
Everyone was in the main room of the mansion, the one with the grand stairway to the upstairs rooms, and the doors to outside. They had gathered to watch the lynching.

Actually, not everyone; Eve had already gone to bed, and wasn't present. Along with her strange behavior during the day, having not been present except for the beginning and jumping in at the end to hammer; not just quiet, but simply nowhere to be found... many were wondering what was up with her.

But they were distracted from these thoughts as the chosen lynch, Pesco, walked up to the door with a sign "Lynchee goes here". The intercom voice had earlier explained that the person chosen for the lynch simply had to enter through that door and close it behind them, and the rest would be taken care of.

Pesco, grumbling, opened the door and walked into a seemingly empty and quite small room, before closing the door behind him. A moment later, the spectators heard a noise like that of sliding wood, and then silence.

Sana walked up and opened the door, and the room was empty, spotless. He shut the door again, without entering, as the intercom came on.

"Pesco the Mindhax was lynched. You've lynched scum, good job! It is now night one. Everyone please enter your rooms, and, well; if you have any night actions, you'll know what to do from there."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Woooow late flavor. Anyway, Day 2 should be starting either in 44 minutes on the hour, or on the next hour. Results for night actions shall be sent out shortly.
Title: Re: MotK Psycho Plot Mafia ~ Night 1; late flavor, D2 starting soon
Post by: Serela on October 13, 2010, 12:30:08 AM
Everyone woke up at about the same time, to pretty much the same thing; Sana screaming "GOOD GRAVY!" in a shrill voice.

Because when Sana went to Eve's room to see if she was awake to say Good Morning, he found Eve slumped on her bed in front of her laptop, a knife resting in one of her hands, and both wrists slit open.

The laptop was on the page (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,4372.0.html) Eve had said she was going to look at last night.

After everyone had rushed in and seen the body, Kilga broke the silence, frowning.

"...wait a second. Didn't this already happen...?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They left Sana and Kilga in Eve's room, checking the rest of the bedrooms for any more dead bodies.

They found Alice lying on her bed, her face contorted in pain and her hands on her chest over her heart, where someone had stabbed her repeatedly with a pen.

And so, the 10 survivors went down the stairs to the lobby, realizing the situation they were in; this mafia game was much more real then the others they had (Or in several of their cases, hadn't) played. And more then one wondered what exactly had happened to Pesco last night, after going behind the Lynching Door.

The intercom came on.

"Well, that was informative in more ways then one, wasn't it? Now get to it. I suppose now I should mention that there's no way for anyone to leave without winning the game, first? And no, scum, the nightkill is NOT optional. If you don't do it, it will be done for you."

"Day two starts now. Good luck."

The intercom shut off, and the remaining ten players looked at eachother.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Eve L. Duehr the Sacrificial Lamb was found dead.
Alice Boofybarn the Silent Contemplationist was killed during the night.


You have 72 hours.

Look down. Back up. The Day 1 lynch is now scum! Anything is possible with the power of proper scumhunting. I'm on a wagon.

##Vote: Sana

Hello players. How are you? Fantastic. Does Sana look like town? No. Did he lurk a bunch through Day 1? Yes. Will he give up in the face of the incoming pressure? I don't know. Do you like good reasoning for votes from your fellow players? Do you want a player that looks like he's town by posting quality thought processes when he does post, including responding to counterarguments to his case that had already been posted by the time he posted the case he built with his own two hands? Of course you do.

SWAN DIVE! Into the most blatant wagon swing attempt I've seen in some time! (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg458618.html#msg458618)

So players, should your fellow players try to look town?

You tell me.

(Non flavor: One meaningful post, full of not overly impressive content and a very lackluster vote that basically ignored the whole discussion on Kilga's purported bandwagon hop AND pushed the alternate case to a flipped scum ahead in the vote count.)

Let's run over that post all over again.

Sana comes in after disappearing for nearly all of the first day. First, let's start with this:

Quote
Gosh guys I think I got lost on my way to the thread and somehow you ended up with some confusing business! I'll do the best that I can to catch up but sorry if I accidentally overlook something!

Not much we can say here, so let's move on shall we?

Sana says that Kilga is most suspicious at the end of day two. Then talks about her opinion of the other participants.

Quote
Looking at page 3 now, Pesco's posts make him look like he was being cautious. Still suspicious of Kilga.

Now look at this. Defends Pesco, who turned out to be scum, and says she is suspicious of Kilga, with no explaination or reason at all. If that doesn't shout out suspicious, then someone hit me in the head with 2000 copies of the dictionary page containing the definition of the word.

Quote
Hi Alice! Alice makes his post all smart-like but what's weird is that he votes the same person as Kilga does, but fails to take note of the Kilga case, whose wagon is arguably one of the more prominent ones. >:<

And Alice died last night. Seeing as Pesco was pushing for a Kilga lynch, this definitely comes off as suspicious. Sana is just pushing for another attempt at a Kilga lynch.

And the rest of the post is absolutely worthless, as it brings nothing to the table. So, without further ado,

##Vote Sana Spice

Oh man I'm in hot water now! There's not much to say in my defense since I literally did nothing D1... :S I wonder if I can keep my head over water though, but it looks like I'll have to go through fire and water if I'm going to get through this. :<

Good gravy! L-2 and it's only been... not a lot of time! From a town perspective I want to believe that at least one person on my wagon is scum, but I still don't feel too good about accusations! :<

Wrathie! If an old friend you know drops by to say hello, would you still see suspicion in my eyes? Here we go again, asking where I've been (in D1), but you can't see the water in my eyes is real, I'm crying!

Trancypants! Your first two points are sound, but your third point doesn't seem to hold water! All I was doing in your quote was making a theoretical connection between Kilga and Alice, which ended up being useless as Kilga is obviously town now (and Alice was stabbed in the heart)! So I don't see the point in pushing for a Kilga lynch because of that!

Your final post(s) of Day 1 does not seem too helpful either! You say you wish to refrain from speaking about others, but hiding your opinions is kinda weird in a game where discussion is important! Or so I've heard. And your vote on Pesco can be seen as bussing, assuming you're scum, and now it looks like  ##Vote: TranceHime

Also! You seem to have made an awful lot of typos regarding gender-specific pronouns in reference to me! Which is odd, because it's awfully hard to typo "his" as "her"! >:< (Also this is a joke, you can ignore it, I guess.)

I agree with the Sana case and will likely end up voting him before the end of the day. There is simply no excuse for the weak vote on me when the Pescohax wagon was getting strength, especially considering Sana's input for the day has only been the summation of events, and vague clearing of Pesco with a vague condemning of me. I still don't know what I was suspicious over to Sana that it made him unable to comment on anyone else in detail. Or even me in detail.

I don't agree we need to focus solely on Sana, however.

##Vote: Slabes

Slabes' solitary input yesterday has been post #58, which is an empty question to GODrake regarding Violentia's vote being the third on Slabes himself. This question is empty because the Violentia vote happened during RVS, which didn't end until I voted Violentia as "third on the wagon is scum".

This also further raises a question when he says that ending RVS takes town effort, yet accuses me of merely bandwagon hopping and acts as if GODrake's chiding of Trance was a reason for voting him. The misrepresentation doesn't sit well with me.

As for others, I want to say that while I feel better about Trance now that he participates strongly, I want to ask if he has any opinions on others? He voted me at first with nothing but a vote, but later unvotes me and hops on Pesco when Pesco's lynch is already a fact of life. An explanation for why I no longer deserve the vote is never given, nor are any thoughts on anyone else, or an explanation for why Pesco is scummy. I particularly don't like the idea that Trance proposes about not needing to talk about others, as we have already done so. We need your opinion, after all, to determine if you are scum or not.

Okay, so Kilga is defTown now.  Sorry if that makes me slow to the party  :X  I agree with pretty much all of his post.

##Unvote: Sana
##Vote: Slaves

##Vote: Valentia, as I still have my suspicions. Everything about Sana has already been said and there's no point pushing the bandwagon anywhere forward into dangerous waters yet.

I have my doubts about Slaves, too- he is following a similar under-the-radar pattern I find in Valentia and Sana, but I want to hear more cases.

(Ok, granted if all he's done is post 58 then there aren't much more cases to hear- bear with me! He could show up and talk more.)

@Kilga: Where RVS starts and ends is not exactly set in stone.  I disagree with you ending the RVS for example; I was still RVSing when I voted Violentia, for example.  Thus, to me, both bandwagons were doing RVS anyway and indistinguishable from the other.  Furthermore:

Quote
There really isn't a whole lot of "scumhunting" to be done with so little on the table, and GODrake looks suspect as a result. Piling votes on someone is a good way to get some discussion going, so at the moment I don't see a need to chide Trance for it.

Chiding Trance was half the sentence, so how was what I said a misinterpretation?  It was the only evidence you raised supporting your first point anyways, about 'encouraging scumhunting being scummy' which I simply disagreed with.  It was donut's case which was the original one, complete with active questioning; your vote seemed like free parking without any attempt at questioning and had nothing to do with ending RVS.

---

I don't like how donut seems to swing from agreeing with me on D1 and voting me on D2 just because of the flip and Sana's rather sad wagon hop. 

I pretty much agree with what has been said about Sana so far, with all the information without analysis done in her posts (except maybe, the Alice point, which was quite an alright observation).  Her vote on Trance is alright, however, and already shows some town effort, though not well-explained.  I would like to expand on this, though.

##Vote: Trance

Vote on Sana is rather easy and smacks of going with the flow.  Pretty much all but one of the points he raised about Sana have been said before and could be applied to him as well (e.g only posting one meaningful post in D1, not explaining the vote well, bringing absolutely nothing useful to the table, etc.).  The other, about Sana 'telegraphing' a Alice NK is pure WIFOM.  Pretty much the only differences between Sana and Trance is that Sana dished out more original content and Trance happened to select the right guy as the very last vote of the day without explaining the vote in depth (why can't Sana do the same thing?)  With all this hypocrisy which does not sound the least bit right, I think Trance deserves a look today before going to Sana.

I'm not sure I like the sudden trend away from Sana, though I guess it can be at least partially forgiven in the sense that people are at least not immediately jumping for the low-hanging lynch fruit (as much as I think Sana is the clear-cut case for today and would be fairly annoyed if most anyone else was lynched). Oh well, day is still plenty early.

Not sure what's up with Donut needing a second post to declare Kilga obvTown. Irks me since it should have been obvious from Pesco's flip rather than Kilga's case, but it might just be having fun with the "character".

Wrathie I'm feeling pretty good on despite not actually being on the wagon because L-1 is a legitimate fear. (Hilarious that the two people he specifically names as being wary of coming in and haphazardly dropping votes do exactly that.) Bringing this up now just to make sure I stamp it out for the future in case anyone starts thinking that way.

Trance I am unsure I want to see lynched at this juncture. The lackluster hop at the end of Day 1 is some degree of suspicious but it's hard to base a case around it given Eve was a greater offender in that regard and ended up flipping town (I think - at the very least, they don't appear to be scum), which people trying to push that point seem to have conveniently ignored. While the Alice part of the Sana case today is sketchy for reasons already discussed, I must at least applaud putting effort into making one's own case - the "defends Pesco" point, at least, was not parroting myself, and seems a legitimate point to me. (Also it's being pushed by people I don't trust.)

The Slaves case, on the other hand, I can get behind.

- I find no real major flaw in Kilga's base case.

- Criticizing Donut for changing his mind in light of a scum flip? Really? Bonus points for being a thinly veiled OMGUS.

- Explicitly claiming he was still in RVS mode with his Valentia vote looks bad in light of (a) people other than Kilga clearly not being in RVS mode anymore (Drake springs to mind immediately and I recall a couple of others) and (b) stating that ending RVS takes some town effort. So, what, perpetuating RVS takes some scum effort? (To be honest it actually does, the longer RVS drags out the better off scum tend to be.)

- The Trance case is not one I'm inclined to buy into for the reasons stated above. That it's in line with Sana's case (which was similarly lackluster) makes me feel worse about it. That some of it is basically a passive defense of Sana (despite being sandwiched in between statements that at least imply interest in moving to the Sana case) makes me feel even worse about it.

The "it" in "it's" here refers to the Trance case on the whole, not the point Trance made about Sana defending Pesco.

Your idea of what my reasons are make no sense.  Seriously, try explaining it.

I'm voting you because you made one significant post yesterday, mentioning Pesco long enough to not ignore him but not being anywhere around when he actually came under fire.  Sure, I agreed with that post at the time, but circumstances have changed quite a bit since Page 2.

(Cut: Purvis beat me to it and said it more succinctly.)

Quote from: Purvis

Not really.  Alternative wagons to scum aren't necessarily town.  Although I just noticed while typing this that the Kilga wagon was {Trance, Slaves, Pesco, Sana} so yeah.

I'm really not sure at all why Mode seems desperate to avoid talking about people who are very likely to be and/or have flipped as scum.  ...Well, that's not true.  I have a decent idea why he may be doing that.

Who are we talking about, here? There's three options.

- We could policy lynch Sana for lack of participation or any particular content, acting basically as a reporter, since the 'lynch anything' tactic is statistically very much in favour of town-side given we have one essentially-confirmed town (Kilga, though I don't think we can 100% confirm anything outside of an investigation or flip, principally speaking). Slabes seems to think otherwise on this (Sana lynch), though.

-We could lynch Slaves for similar participation and lacklustre justifications; but his defense is doing more than base parroting or reporting.

-If you meant Pesco from D1, that's done and over with so I don't see how it matters.

1) and 2) If these are the only two living options in your mind, why aren't you voting either of them?
3) It's done and over with, but it absolutely matters that you did what you could yesterday to avoid mention of him at all, let alone voting him.

On a side note, your first point makes me want to RAGE a little more.
*"Policy lynch" doesn't mean what you think it means.
*Is Kilga more-or-less guaranteed Town or not?  (I still think that tell is a little dubious but that's beside the point.)
*Confirmed or not, if you think we only have one likely Townie you're underreporting the advantage Town has right now.  All the people who are being voted for right now, plus you, are pretty much the only people who are likely to be scum in this game and that pool is going to shrink as the game goes on.

Regarding voting: Sana is at L-2 and given that this is a power-heavy game, there could very well be a hidden double vote in play. I figure I've already said I found him suspicious, and as such I put my vote on Valentia over my earlier case. Slabes? I don't think he's scum, and in all likelihood the train on him is going to be a town-town argument.

To the third point:

I'm lumping all three together due to inactivity; Pesco has responded more (Sana just did too) than the others, but the responses were subpar which is one of the reasons he's being voted for.

If we're coming down on Pesco or Kilga at this point (there's still some time left) I still think Kilga's a townie. We'll see if anything changes.

This was intended to be a 'Alright, I'll agree here' and 'If there isn't a lynch when we get back I'll hammer down the Pesco train'; I guess I have to be more literate here.

'Policy Lynch': Probably not.

Kilga Town: Principally, we can't say with 100% certainty that Kilga is town until he dies and flips town or someone investigates him to confirm this. Kilga bucked up and took his train on and had nothing to hide. Pesco insisted on lurking and giving off scumtells; thus Pesco was lynched. He flipped scum. This whole thing could have been a scum orchestration - but we can't prove that either, can we? For all intents and purposes I stick with my previous feeling: Kilga is a townie.

Underreporting: I don't even know what to say to this, do you want me to go 'OH MY GOD GUYS WE ARE TOTALLY GOING TO WIN THIS!!' to avoid underreporting in the future? :|

@Slabes: Whether RVS had ended or had not ended, my actions at the end of page 1 were intended to end RVS. Because I will not assume you take me at my word there, I will cede the point that I did not end RVS for everyone. When Kuruminut, then Trance voted me for my actions, the game entered a serious state of affairs. I think it reflects poorly on you that you attempted to extend the RVS. At the very least, I detected no effort from you to end it, and if it is the towntell you think it is, you are doing yourself a disservice.

As for my vote reasons I detect a misunderstanding. GODrake never chided Trance. It was Evil Doer who did that. I held GODrake against his idea that "there was scumhunting to be done" at a stage when RVS had just ended for most people. My comment afterwards was a general commentary on Trance. That you did not even research your case is unbecoming.

I have yet to hear on why you thought Violentia's third vote on you was pertinent enough to mention outside of the RVS.

Further problems I have with Slabes' conduct so far is his push now on Trance, decrying Sana as an "easy lynch". When all evidence points to Sana being scum, I do not think Trance in particular is guilty of an unexplained vote on Sana. Kuruminut was the first to do so this day. I also disagree about Sana providing original content: a rehash of the thread does not constitute original content to me.

Of course, I am also in the camp that feels Sana deserves the noose today. We now know he tried to steer the lynch away from a now-confirmed scum. That he did so while reporting the events of the thread, alongside some vague "maybe yes maybe no" sentiments on a few choice players and finish with the coup de grace that he is sure he skipped over a lot of stuff, does not constitute "original content" in a positive light.

Then there is Sana's post today, which misrepresents Trance's case (he did not, in fact, claim Sana pushed for a Kilga lynch today, despite what Sana wants us to believe) and throws out that Trance "could have bussed" Pesco without supporting that claim with a string of logic.

You say that you think we should look at Trance before going to Sana. However, between the two, you seem to think of Trance is the likelier scum due to Sana supposedly dishing out more original content, and of course visible in that you agree and build on the case Sana propagated. If you truly believed Sana to be scum, I do not think you would take up the case he built. Can you explain which camp you are in proper? Can you also explain why Kuruminut's change of heart is disconcerting?

You don't know what to say to it because it wasn't an accusation per se.  Probably my fault for making it out to look like one.

In the first quote, you mention that there's a chance that OMG SANA MIGHT GET SECRETHAMMERED.  Considering Sana is at or near the top of everyone's scum list, it wouldn't be a bad thing for Sana to get lynched secretly or otherwise even if a Town flip results.  But beyond that, I wouldn't take it seriously as a reasoning if it weren't for this being a role madness game and the fact that I actually DO know that there's a secret vote in the game.  For some reason, I have come into the possession of it.  There are one or two odd uses for it as Town, but the ability to bring on a stealth majority makes it much more useful for scum.  And since it's one-shot, I think you'll find that as of the next (official) vote count Sana will be a little closer to lynch than before (L-2).

What's with all the real accounts posting in this thread? Y'alls need to keep your eyes on the prize.

Mode, I believe the more general issue with your vote that Donut at least partly shares is that feels like non-particpation on your part. Granted, Valentia hasn't posted since you first made your case against her, and there is something to be said for going what you believe in ahead of simply going with the flow, but the way you only briefly acknowledged the existing Day 2 cases while perpetuating a Mid-Day 1 case that all of no one else has bought into since the first time you brought it up makes it look less like you're trying to hunt scum and more like you're trying to avoid posting anything town can hold you responsible for, which is very much a scummy thing to do. It's a very "safe" position for you to take, because it requires no additional input on your part - and you've provided basically no additional input. Certainly nothing meaningful, since "I agree with the Sana case" seems to be the going opinion from everyone and your stance on Slaves was a single line that was inferrable fom Kilga's case anyway. We want to see more effort.

Post by: Skull on October 13, 2010, 05:37:05 PM
Dear Blog,

It is currently lunch break here at the mansion. The morning had been quite eventful. I woke up to the shout of someone screaming "GOOD GRAVY!". I dashed out of my room hoping to get some along with my morning hash browns. Alas, it was a lie. At first glance, it seems Ms. Duehr offed herself last night. But a piece of paper was taped onto her back, the words "Sacrificial Lamb" written in blue ink. I don't know what to make of it. Was it suicide or murder? There was already one confirmed victim with that Alice girl. I guess I should be grateful I didn't ask either of them to come to my room to touch their boobies or I could also be dead.

Anyways, I was mad at Sana for fooling me about the gravy so I declared he should be next into the lynching room. Apparently, 3 others felt the same way too. But then a few of them had their enthusiasm fade slightly. They wanted to pursue other cases. But no! We can't let this injustice about the nonexistent gravy pass! Sana counters that it was Trancey who hid the gravy! Sana says, "Oh, your first 2 points are sound (which they are), but the 3rd one is wrong because it was inapplicable theory or something. In essence, Sana says to Trancey, your reasons are good but because you came late and Trancey's vote "can be seen as bussing" so he's more guilty than me today. Nope! Not a higher priority today. Not enough to convince me that Sana shouting about the gravy and not having it is the greatest crime of this day.

And a note about Slabes so I don't forget:

Pretty much the only differences between Sana and Trance is that Sana dished out more original content and Trance happened to select the right guy as the very last vote of the day without explaining the vote in depth (why can't Sana do the same thing?)

Wrong. The difference is Trancey voted a correct guy even though it was late versus Sana voting a most likely incorrect guy at a point on the wagon where it could have shifted the person who gets ushered through the Lynching Door. And the original content thing I totally disagree with. As you said, why couldn't Sana have done the same thing? One is not automatically guilty when wrong, but Sana ended up being wrong at a very bad time and it reflects way more poorly on him than Trancey. I've got my eye on you too Slabes. Perhaps you're also hiding the gravy!

Anyways, all that typing worked up quite an appetite. Oh, here's the lunch menu for today. ... ... Lamb chops for the main course?! The owner of this mansion is a twisted bastard! I think I'm going to stick to the veggies instead. Hopefully with some good gravy.

I didn't mean that I doubted him being a Townie, sorry if I was unclear. I doubted he was scum, I still do. All I can really say (I don't know how this community reacts to this sort of thing) is to trust me on this.

I went back and looked over to find that someone had unvoted Sana, so she's no longer at L-2, so:
##Unvote: Valentia
##Vote: Sana


Sana is, at this point, still an easy lynch, essentially having the noose around her neck.  Donut poked me earlier about not mentioning Trance (and I did forget, my bad) and if I had to rank my scumdar readings at the moment:

Sana>Valentia=Trance>Slaves and the rest.

We can still keep Sana in her place; we have 60 or so hours open for discussion. Trance is finally joining in on the discussion, Valentia is still MIA. Both have opportunities to speak up; it's to our advantage to make use of the time. This is basically my present roadmap.

I tried to address these in my earlier post, but I might as well field them separately.

1. Yes, forgot Trance, my bad. Same level on my scumdar as Valentia for similar lurking.

2. Why vote so people can haphazardly drop a hammer like we did to take Pesco down? I went to sleep after that post; I figured that when I woke up and there wasn't any glaring new points against Kilga, I'd hop on the Pesco bandwagon. (Granted I wasn't keeping track of the remaining game time at this point, so this could have simply not worked at all.)

3. When it comes to Sana being secrethammered - ok, good to know the double vote is out of the way. Before knowing this, though, I figure it's in the town's interest to keep the Day open a bit and still discuss things: see Kilga wisely turning away from the train to start grilling Slaves (despite my disagreement on the matter).

What was particularly haphazard about the Pesco hammer that would have been made more so by your vote?  He was lynched with seven hours to deadline, most of them in the dead of American night.  I'm glad people were online.

Cut:  Bold was so people saw it in case they showed up before you did, not so much for the threatening factor.

orz, ok, my bad again with regards to the timing.

What I'm trying to get at is that the final two (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg458942.html#msg458942) votes (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg458948.html#msg458948) were hardly, shall we say, compelling? It was essentially two relative non contributors conceding to the will of the crowd. If we had more time (we didn't, my error) we could have gotten further discussion out of everyone, Eve and Trance included. Every time you make a scum talk, they have an opportunity to make a mistake. This was what I wanted to do to see how the Kilga train went, but we didn't have the time - turns out Eve flipped town and Pesco flipped scum anyways.

Wrathie was musing about the meaning of a Sacrificial Lamb earlier: my first thought is that Eve was a bodyguard. But then we'd have to start discussing the flavor text of her having been found dead rather than overtly stabbed to death, which will lead us nowhere. :/

I think we can trust the flavor text in this game.  I think the different flip color means that Eve was a third party of some variety who may have failed to reach their win condition.  The original Eve was site-banned for being a forum game going horribly wrong, and the flavor text mentioning that thread points toward a connection.  So Alice was more than likely the scumkill and more than likely either chosen randomly or at the last minute, suggesting a team of newbscum.

Take it for what it's worth, although there's a related bit of setup logic that <insert cryptic statement here>.

Well i missed alot D: better catch up here  :ohdear:

About me being so called "under the radar" and being scum for being so under the radar, i generally do not have much to add to other peoples statements as is.

The case behind Sana at the moment could possibly lead her to be lynched, still not sure on it and i rather not vote on it as of yet.

Who are we talking about, here? There's three options.

- We could policy lynch Sana for lack of participation or any particular content, acting basically as a reporter, since the 'lynch anything' tactic is statistically very much in favour of town-side given we have one essentially-confirmed town (Kilga, though I don't think we can 100% confirm anything outside of an investigation or flip, principally speaking). Slabes seems to think otherwise on this (Sana lynch), though.


I see no point in the,"Lynch anything" tatic, seems like a pull out a machine gun and spray option which isnt the smartest idea ever

Unless a bigger spark of evidence appears Sana is off my scum list.

@Violentia: If we combine your statements. You said you are unsure about the case behind Sana leading to a lynch, and follow it up with Sana being off your scum list. Whereas most of us are agreed Sana must be scum, can you explain why you think this is not the case?

And I have returned! Oh boy, look at all these posts to read.

Anyway, suffice it to say that the Sana case has been discussed to death and I agree that Sana is quite scummy. I'm all for his lynch, so, onto other areas.

Valentia! Is that really all you have to say? I'm kind of hoping that by "better catch up here" you mean you're still going over the topic, and have a better post incoming soon! If you don't (Which is what I feel is more likely), well. All your post says is you don't agree with the Sana case, and hardly even say why. You act as if there isn't any actual reasoning behind the case on Sana.

Pretty sure Valentia is a newbie, but I'm also pretty sure she's looking a lot like newbscum, with heavy lurking and posts that don't really say anything.

I admit I would be fairly amused if that actually triggered some sort of power.

As far as the actual game proceedings go, I admit to wariness regarding the Violentia case, if only because the action strikes me moreso as newbie and silly than it strikes me as scum intent. Openly defying Sana's lynch in such a way seems only to implicate one's self when Sana flips scum (if Sana flips scum), while not moving onto anyone else is too high profile and attention grabbing. I cannot fathom any scum player would honestly pursue such an action, and maintain that I find Slabes to be most scummy after Sana.

The wait is, of course, for Slabes at this juncture. The continued silence does not speak in his favour.

In the interest of doing something while waiting for whatever this is to resolve:

- Val's post speaks for itself, not that I begrudge the people openly criticising it. Sana isn't scum for completely unexplained reasons? Seemingly non-sequitur response to a part of Mode's pose? (Seriously, what is that response addressing? I cannot see it at all.) No vote? No actual content? What is this I don't even.

- Kinda unhappy with Drake for picking on nothing but the Valentia post after coming in so late. If you had first posted right before that Valentia post, what cases would you have been making, and where would your vote be?

- If Sana does somehow prove his townhood with this charade, I expect I'll be moving to Slaves, for reasons discussed prior.

@donut: Sure, circumstances may have changed, but an explanation should have been given.  It's not really an OMGUS in that there was no intention to vote you, just a need to see some reasoning for how the change of circumstances affected your opinion.

@Kilga: Alright, it looks like I misunderstood the entirety of your D1 actions, and so I'm inclined to let all of you hold it against me and move on to justifying my case on Trance, which is more important.  The RVS thing I am uninterested in getting bogged down in for the most part (I did not see your post as an RVS ender for example), as it's all technical and subjective, I feel.  On hindsight, I guess you all do have a reason to be disconcerted (cue Rou-facepalm)

Quote
However, between the two, you seem to think of Trance is the likelier scum due to Sana supposedly dishing out more original content, and of course visible in that you agree and build on the case Sana propagated. If you truly believed Sana to be scum, I do not think you would take up the case he built. Can you explain which camp you are in proper? Can you also explain why Kuruminut's change of heart is disconcerting?

Yes, Sana is scummy, but I saw some merit to his Trance vote which I agreed with, and that merit is not at all dependent on Sana's alignment.  Again, going onto the Sana case as an easy lynch at that point, and note that he was the L-2 vote and that he just parroted everyone else.  Thing is that, in his post here (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg458942.html#msg458942), he did not state his reasons for the hammer at all, and that he did not comment on anyone else at all, things he criticizes about Sana here (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg460256.html#msg460256).  There should be an effort to sort out these contradictions, after all, and jumping on the bandwagon alone is not enough to make Trance town at all.  His only original point is that Sana talked about Alice and Alice got NK'ed, but that doesn't mean anything. 

I am in the neither 'camp' at the moment until Trance has a response to my post. If it's satisfactory, I would join the Sana wagon due to the rather inexplicable go planet thing.   And of course, Purvis, any counterwagon is bound to be a passive defense to the main one.  I'm not in any way saying that Sana was awesome or anything, just that Sana had the {slightly) more intelligent vote than Trance, and a greater breadth of points.

There was a bit of a collective "What" as Sana called out the trademark Captain Planet summoning.

But they didn't expect it to actually DO something.

As Sana pulled out five glowing rings, their light combined to form Captain Planet, who picked up Sana in his arms and flew out a high, unreachable window, yelling "The power... is YOURS!"

The window glass fell to the floor in absolute stunned silence.

Then the intercom came on.

"What. The. Fuck."

What part of "I agree with everything Kilga said" made no sense?  (To head the obvious following question off at the pass, I gave a longer explanation afterward, so there was one.)

Sana leaving means the pool of not-obvTowns drops to... about three, maybe three and a half people out of nine.  It's pretty hard to miss at this point :D

Alright, then. Now that I have recovered from my initial fit of laughter, I find myself re-examining my stances and priorities.

@Slabes: I see the point you raise about Trance. I find myself agreeing despite my belief that your behaviour has been scummy, however, there is the proviso that when explained, I can follow your thought pattern at least somewhat.

TranceHime reeks me of newbie. However, a cursory reread I just did to confirm your claim reminds me that Pesco asserted at the start of the game that TranceHime is obviously newbie, and he reminded us of the presence of newbies again later, if memory serves. Either scum sought to preserve newbies for easy pickings later on, or one or more of their number is a newbie. I am unaware, but it is not a possibility I can discard.

What I missed is that in Trance's #98, he says that his inactivity is due to wanting to take his sweet time with meaningful discussion. I passed it off at the time as newbie, but as the truth of Slabes' words become apparent, I find myself interested in pursuing this trail as well.

As such, I will take it as an admission of active lurking, which has never been an admirable trait in townies. There was never a telegraphed intention or stance on anyone, and as Slabes pointed out, he has only taken easy stances this game. In the case of the first serious push, being the one on me, he did not telegraph reasons at all.

Hm. While I cannot shake all suspicion of Slabes, I admit his latest post is satisfying for me, and displays a strong trait I enjoy in people: the ability to look beyond their own defence and focus on hunting scum. For now, I am content to press Trance.

Dear Blog,

Terrible afternoon. Let me recount what happened. First off, after a relatively unsatisfying lunch bereft of meat and gravy, I headed back to the main hall to confront Sana Spice again. He just stood there taking our continued criticism. Then suddenly, he pointed at 5 of my compatriots and seemed to draw magical words from each of them. Before I knew it, an old familiar jingle began to ring in my head, reminiscent of long forgotten times of the 90s. By the time I placed its source, HE appeared. That blue skinned, green haired savior of Earth. He grabbed Sana and prepared to fly off. Temporarily at a loss for words, I managed to cry out:

"WAIT! Where's the good gravy?!"

Captain Planet merely yelled out, "The power... is YOURS!"

"But the gravy isn't!!! Where is it?!"

By then, the sentient glass had fallen amongst us also staring at what was left of their shattered home and selves. I couldn't take it anymore and cursed at the fleeing duo.

"YOU'LL PAY FOR THIS, CAPTAIN PLANET!!!"

---

It gets worse of course, I just found out Kilga got kneecapped to death. Poor useless bunny only good for her sex appeal. Seriously, even though I don't believe he's one of those dirty gravy-hiding thugs, we won't find out until this evening when the man behind the intercom decides to tell us then. Jackass. What happened to our numbers advantage??? Fuck... I need a nap.

Dear Blog,

Blargh. Can't sleep, too noisy with all the confusion going on outside. So it's time to pore over my chat logs and see what I can find.

Finished reading the logs. You know, as much as the focus after (with apologies to Nancy) Kilgerrigan's beatdown  seemed to be on Valentia or Trance, something about both of them being likely newbies strikes me as odd. Then I remembered why. Someone proposed that the scumteam is probably all made of newbies. And that someone from post #137 is:

##Vote: Kuruminut

That is an extremely careless and dangerous assumption to make. Why is the scum team nub? If you will recall, Alice was the second one on Pesco's wagon. And Kilga who was just offed and reasonably considered Town by everyone else was the first on Pesco's wagon. And you're telling me the scum are all newbs? It sets a bad precedent and gives me pause to go after the so called "newbscum" as you call Valentia or maybe Trance.

But I looked into you more than just that initial gut reaction oh Mr. Nutty Nut. I recall you flitting around case by case in Day 1 and I don't like it. In re-reading the exchange between you and Kilga, I don't like how you accused Drake and then somehow decided that Drake could be townie due to content posts. Kilga countered and then you said that maybe you cleared Drake too soon per #75. Looked like a bit of an overreach there. Mode's #80 is actually quite decent in regards to the Donut analysis.

Going to Nutty's #83, now that I read it, his responses to Mode aren't really that adequate. A call to bandwagon from both you and Drake is still what it is and yea, you did go vote Drake for it. So you never really refute the point, just brush it aside. Also:

Also, summary wallposts aren't cool.  They don't tell me much because I read the topic, and they slow me down from seeing that you didn't say anything about Pesco.

Whoa, pot and kettle! From #37-#75, you pretty much don't acknowledge Pesco at all despite spending the time to be extremely talkative about most everyone else and their responses. Kilga noticably questions Pesco while talking to you and I find it odd you don't. Only after there are already 2 votes on Pesco, you bring up an analysis of Pesco and at the same time a simple one-liner temporary clear of Kilga in your big #83. By this point, you can reasonably say that Pesco had done himself in by then as he never posts in the game again and the various votes fall into place. So yes, after the lone non-Pesco vote was proven to be Town moments ago, Pesco was bus worthy after his post #82. Picking on the late newb or the nub voting Kilga in Day 1 seems short sighted.

And in regards to your reason to vote Slaves:

I'm voting you because you made one significant post yesterday, mentioning Pesco long enough to not ignore him but not being anywhere around when he actually came under fire.  Sure, I agreed with that post at the time, but circumstances have changed quite a bit since Page 2.

Pot and kettle again! You give me bad vibes all around and I want this train of thought to be discussed more. Therefore, I don't trust going on the Valentia wagon right now with 3 quick votes on it and the Trance wagon is a bit inconclusive. Those 2 definitely need to speak up and vote.

~~~

Mods: Can you post end of day votecounts please so we don't have to backtrack through it all ourselves? Thanks.

Post by: Kiva-la on October 14, 2010, 04:11:25 AM
Ugh, this trainwreck.

As bad as Valentia is, there's something here telling me I don't want to vote for her. Not yet. Part of it is the mad dash to her right after Sana's flip, and part of it is looking back at that post and going "that post is just bad". Bad bad. Unhelpful bad. Anti-town bad. But...I don't know if I see it as scummy. I look at it and think "What would make scum more likely to post this than town? What advantage does scum hope to gain by being this unhelpful?" And I have no answer to these questions. When I do, I'll be ready to vote for her.

I actually kind of want to vote Drake right now. He's talked about a grand total of two people today, and one of those was a one-liner on Sana. I'm suddenly not sure about Valentia, which makes me feel like perhaps he's simply pushing an easy target. Amusing in his case against Valentia is the "Is that really all you have to say?" opener when the exact same could be thrown back at him - doubly so in the face of blithely ignoring a call for opinions while throwing his vote back down on Valentia. It's hard to ignore his vote positioning on Day 1, though.

In light of Sana's flip I'm suddenly having a hard time making up my mind on Trance vs. Slaves. I...think I'm still going to go with the Slaves case, as there are still a couple things that bother me about the Trance case. I looked back at Trance's reason for not posting opinions on Day 1, and he cited others getting to those opinions first. Now, in look back at the Trance case, he's being simultaneously blasted (at least by Slaves here (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg460826.html#msg460826)) for not posting his opinions at all (on Day 1) and parroting opinions (on the Sana case). Given he didn't post opinions on Day 1 because he didn't want to parrot, it makes me frown that he'd be that inconsistent but also that both things would be held against him separately (if he had posted his Day 1 opinions that were apparently copies of other opinions, would you be any happier, Slaves?). I dunno, it's kinda hard to word this the way I want to, but I don't like both these things being held against him given that, in this specific case, his choices appear to have been one or the other.

Slaves has also moved his opinion of Trance's Sana post over to "just parroted everyone else" and "his only original point is that Sana talked about Alice", which is untrue, as he was the first to point out Sana's pesco defense. It's also sensationalized to a degree; "everyone else" in this context is only me, as I was the only one to comment on Sana's final Day 1 post before him. Donut mutely voted Sana and no one else had said anything about Sana during the end of Day 1 other than noting he existed at all. Who exactly is this 'everyone else'?

And then there's just picking nits with what amounts to "but you should have explicitly said the scum flip changed your mind!" at Donut. It's not like it was terribly hard to infer, especially since you got it yourself on the first try.

Also the RVS inconsistency/hypocrisy/whatever you want to call it (third point (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg460471.html#msg460471)) still stands.

I really want to see another post from Trance before I decide if I'm ready to vote for him. As things stand, as I don't know if I'm ready to vote for Valentia or Trance, but I DO know I'm ready to vote for Slaves, I will do just that.

EBWOP: "Probably all made of newbies" is a bit hyperbole. I'll just quote Nutty's passage from #137.

So Alice was more than likely the scumkill and more than likely either chosen randomly or at the last minute, suggesting a team of newbscum.

That's actually quite an interesting case on Donut. I had seen the "newbscum" assumption and was more or less inclined to throw it out (because hell, look at how I'm voting), but thinking about it in conjunction with how Donut keeps referring to the lynch candidate pool (first here (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg460524.html#msg460524), again here (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg460840.html#msg460840)) I can see it as an attempt to lead the town via simple subconscious misdirection. Make people chase after newbies, convince them there's only a handful of actual suspects...yeah, I can definitely see scum intent behind that.

You know what? To hell with it.

##Unvote, ##Vote: Kuruminut

I buy that case. It helps me that I went back to Donut's #83 and can only barely make out a case on Pesco at all. There is admittedly a degree of questioning Pesco in Donut's #56, which doesn't entirely matchup with the accusation that Donut "[doesn't] acknowledge Pesco at all", but Pesco's response is very lackluster - it dodges the pairing question entirely (i.e. doesn't even say "I don't actually think that" or anything of the sort) and Donut seems to accept it anyway given how he doesn't stop to even acknowledge that it exists until kinda-sorta in #83. And, really, that insinuation was the only thing Donut held against the guy? Very unimpressive reasoning.

I was going to post that I missed the #56 thing, but Purvis just beat me to it. People seriously need to put down the name/post of the people they're quoting. And he kind of explained why it doesn't completely derail my case which is obviously a boon to me. My opinion of him improves quite a bit, but we've been burned too many times in mafia to be completely trustworthy of anyone here.

And I also missed that Valentia had a vote on GODrake at the end of Day 1 and wasn't a part of the Pesco/Kilga deal. Not sure if it is relevant at all due to the after #82 clause.

Valentia missing both Day 1 trains is irritating but I think it's not unreasonable to assume she plain wasn't around after her Drake vote, and total absence is not a tell either way because real life can come up for anyone. I don't think I'd put too much stock into it. At the very least, not unless we get to a point where we're voting off least likely townie instead of most likely scum.

Also, as long as you're here, can I bother you to restate your position on Slaves as of right now, since I am still very willing to vote for him as well? Did Sana's flip change anything there for you?

Regarding Slabes of meat (boy I could sure go for some meat now, with gravy):

First impression due to me now thinking Donut is Scum infers that Slaves is Town due to Donut's Day 2 vote as the initial alternate to Town Sana. Even though Donut is now pursuing Valentia, I suspect Donut still has Slaves pegged as second so I want to hear his opinion there. I was getting on Slaves' case initially for thinking that Trance had a greater priority than Sana in the possibility that Slaves was Sana's scumbuddy trying to present an easy to understand, yet hard to prove and inconclusive alternative. In retrospect, it's a poor way to go through Day 2 because I never expected to move my vote from Sana anyways.

I still think Sana's case was clearly dominant and Town got bailed out by his ability. Everyone agreed Sana was bad, but Sana defying expectations with the Town flip suggests that in Slaves case: he is Scum knowing Sana would flip Town and wished to avoid the wagon completely or Slaves is Town/3rd party (we have 2 unexplained deaths in Eve and Kilga and it seriously worries me right now) and thought well enough ahead to try a different route. There is no real benefit for Scum to avoid the Sana wagon since it solidifies a position and they could coast through Day 2 offering 1 alternative case and most everyone was guilty of accusing Sana whether they would have voted or not. Him taking the initiative with the Trance case at the start puts undue attention on him which is a more gutsy way for him to play as Scum or it's an actual Townie at work. Too many what-ifs regarding Slaves still but lean Town more than Scum in the end. His reasoning for Trance in Day 2 in light of Sana's flip is now fair and he was consistent with it even after the Sana flip which doesn't reflect poorly on him. He's in the category of "needs another post to make a clearer opinion of."

@Purvis: Sana's defense of pesco?  That's old hat and pretty much the unspoken reason everyone was going after Trance anyway; Sana's wagon swing pretty much renders that point irrelevant since it's this 'defense' exaggerated to the highest degree.  And wrathie also chipped in something, what about the wagon swing which was quite obvious.  Anyway, there wasn't even much to Trance's post anyway other than that and the Alice thing.  As for your other points, you're free to make do with them, though I'm not sure how they fit into an overall scheme of things now.

Furthermore, your post strikes me as a defense of Trance; defense that Trance himself should have given.  No, I would not have been any happier whether he admitted it or not; non-existent justification on why pesco instead of Kilga was the more dominant factor here, and you providing a false choice between him providing 'no opinions' or 'parroting opinions' makes me feel a bit iffy about you.  The thing is that all the points he put towards Sana could be applied to himself as well in that D2 post, which was contradictory and pointed towards an artificial renewal of the same old points without considering what implications they had for him. 

Reading the case on donut now.

Dear Blog,

I have no idea what Slabes just said in #180. Literally, nothing. It's more confusing than any of my posts or my alter-ego posts. Am I going out of my mind?  I didn't even drink that much just now. Maybe it's the want for gravy causing delusions. I think I'm going to lie down and try to take that nap again. Still not sure what to make of Slabes, but all I see are WITCHES WITCHES WITCHES... BURN BURN BURN... FIRE FIRE FIRE... WIND... WATER... HEART... GO PLANET! ..........Fuck me.

Well this had to happen eventually.

The scum team is more likely nubbie because they evidently considered not killing last Night (why?) and because frankly I have Town reads on almost everyone else.  The fact that there were pro-Town reasons for killing Alice doesn't mean that's why it happened - there were far better kills IMO.

Re: Alleged indecision between Kilga and Drake:  I don't see how this is scummy.  I found people I thought were scummy, I pursued them, I stopped when someone better came up.  My goal is to get as much done D1 as possible.

That's why I'm the king of the Koopas!  I GET THINGS DONE!

Going to Nutty's #83, now that I read it, his responses to Mode aren't really that adequate. A call to bandwagon from both you and Drake is still what it is and yea, you did go vote Drake for it. So you never really refute the point, just brush it aside. Also:
"They're the same thing"
"No they aren't"
"Yes they are"
...Guess what my response would have to be.

Quote
Whoa, pot and kettle! From #37-#75, you pretty much don't acknowledge Pesco at all despite spending the time to be extremely talkative about most everyone else and their responses. Kilga noticably questions Pesco while talking to you and I find it odd you don't. Only after there are already 2 votes on Pesco, you bring up an analysis of Pesco and at the same time a simple one-liner temporary clear of Kilga in your big #83. By this point, you can reasonably say that Pesco had done himself in by then as he never posts in the game again and the various votes fall into place. So yes, after the lone non-Pesco vote was proven to be Town moments ago, Pesco was bus worthy after his post #82. Picking on the late newb or the nub voting Kilga in Day 1 seems short sighted.
I was engaging Kilga and didn't want to move on until I was done with him.  Saying I had a "simple one-liner clear of Kilga" shows that you didn't read it or what I was doing.  And while we're on this subject, I was the one who pointed out that Pesco tried to get away with calling me and whoever possible newbscum partners, probably the strongest part of the case IMO.

Quote
And in regards to your reason to vote Slaves:

Pot and kettle again! You give me bad vibes all around and I want this train of thought to be discussed more. Therefore, I don't trust going on the Valentia wagon right now with 3 quick votes on it and the Trance wagon is a bit inconclusive. Those 2 definitely need to speak up and vote.
At the end of yesterday and before Today, my suspect list looked like this (in order):
--SCUM--
Mode
Sana
|
Slaves
Trance
Alice
Valentia
Eve
Kilga
|
Drake
Wrathie
Purvis
--TOWN--
While looking over the game I noticed that while I remembered good things about Slaves, he hadn't posted anything for the important half of the Day, so he went up the suspectometer.  When the chance came to squeeze info out of him, I jumped for it.

@Purvis:  If you want me to be more clear about the "lynch pool".
You are Town.  If there is any dispute about this let me know.
Wrathie is probably Town and has been almost all game.
Drake was Townish enough the last time I checked.
Kilga is/was Town.
I'm Town.  If you can't see that after I threw away the ability for scum to let SUPER STEALTH LYLO go by - AND allowed my hypopartner to throw away my SUPER STEALTH LYLO MAKER one-shot vig - please learn to play Mafia.

So at that point, there were five people remaining, all of whom had votes except for Mode.  Thus they were the only people getting lynched.

A page or two later, that pool of Townies is reduced to you, Wrathie, Drake, me, and Mode.  Five out of eight.  If you want to include Drake as a side option (I haven't reread him so I don't know if that's a good idea or not), that's still half the Town who shouldn't get lynched.  Again, we can't miss.

----

What I was going to say when I said I would let Wrathie speak first was that based on the same crackpot logic that brought you newbscum - specifically, looking at who had posted between Sana's escape and the following vote count (thus they had the chance to submit the Kilgakill between then and didn't), the kill was more likely to have been submitted by one of {Trance, Valentia, Wrathie, Purvis}.  I'm not going back on my Purvis read, but I wanted to see what Wrathie had to say since he conveniently showed up afterward.  The other two look familiar.  IN ADDITION, the only one who had not posted after it was declared that Kilga was obvious Town was Trance, so if Trance had been AFK all day, that was literally the first chance he had to submit the kill.

##Unvote: Valentia
##Vote: Trance

First point is inconclusive. Scum considering to not kill at Night is likely something more experienced Scum players would suggest rather than nubscum. "Far better kills over Alice" is your opinion, but may not reflect the Scumteam's opinion.

You clearing Kilga has no bearing on your alignment. Anybody can engage in conversation with someone and then make an opinion of it. It's easier for Scum to do because they actually know who's not on their team. So you focusing on Kilga till you were done with him and clearing him doesn't really make you more Townie in the long run, just more active. And I figured that Pesco not voting after his jokevote disappeared, his bystanderism then delayed and shoddy jump onto Kilga were stronger factors against him, not that he called 2 people scumpartners. That latter mistake has been made by Townies before, at least more so than the other points, so I don't find your efforts against Pesco satisfying.

And frankly, I never saw your supposed extra vote in effect. You and Mode ran through some dialogue of voting and unvoting, but I actually never saw it on a mod's votecount. Please link where it's supposed to be. I also wondered why you would bother to reveal such a power proactively. If you're worried about it making you look scummy, you don't really have to use it.

Thinking about people as a pool of Townies is bad bad bad. This ain't a clique thing. Frankly, we're almost out of time; it boggles my mind that we lynched correctly on Day 1, but could potentially be in LYLO if we mislynch on Day 2 in a 13 player game. The game situation has degraded to the point that we have to look at everybody now.

Trying to guess who submitted the Kilgakill is a futile exercise and another dangerous assumption. You cannot eliminate anybody from this list nor place anybody higher on it. And you're not going to get any definitive answer from anybody. For me, I was at work and not active on the forum. That's it. Also wait wait wait. Why the change from Valentia to Trance? Just because for some inconclusive reason, you think Trance submitted the Kilgakill? I'd like you to re-summarize your case against Valentia, Trance, and Slaves so I can make more sense of all your jumps.

None of what you said has convinced me to drop the case on you so my vote stays. You had more opportunities to get onto Pesco's case due to your activity then either Valentia or Trance, but failed to do so adequately until Pesco had already dug his own grave. I'm pursuing the actively scummy case over the passively scummy case here.

Bolded ignores that Pesco also implied that both me and Drake (or was it Kilga, whoever) were newbies as well as scumpartners, which was obviously not true.  But whatever.

Ctrl-F "Basement Dweller".  I even acknowledged it publicly afterward.  I don't have time or the right browser to link to it.

As for why I would bother to reveal that kind of power proactively, that's a really bloody good question!  As scum it would be stupid to not avoid mention of the power, sit on it until LyLo, and INSTA-WIN.  As Town, I want it burned to prevent precisely that, as there's virtually no decent reason to have it (emergency lynch-getter with five minutes to LyLo and nobody else online, maybe).  This isn't WIFOM, this is someone deliberately shooting themself in the foot if they're scum.

Trance is at most slightly more scummy than Valentia for the reason given.  I wouldn't mind if either of them got lynched Today.

The "case" such as it is is on each of them is that they aren't obviously Town.  When half the game is probTown you can afford to lynch who's left.  Do you have any qualms with my Town list?  I suppose I could detail each one's relatively lackluster participation, fluffposts, and general avoidance of attention (from what I remember Slaves has a milder case of all of these--rushposting here), but all of that is relatively unenlightening old news and I can only assume you've forgotten it if you're asking about it.

Last - Have you ever played as scum against this kind of Town?  If I really wanted to avoid getting lynched and coast by I would be lurking much more and causing disturbances much less.  I mean really, as scum I would be going SO FAR OUT OF MY WAY to make a spectacle of myself that it's virtually suicidal.

I can respect that I haven't played the most orthodox of games here, but calling me scum implies that I've been playing outrightly stupid.  Not WIFOMscum, but plainly stupid.

Between Wrathie and Slaves' posts, I realize I do need to pull off of Slaves. I'm not a fan of this "unspoken word" qualifying as the "everyone else" but the rest of the post is sound: it made me go back and read the exact wording of Trance's posts. I had initially assumed this (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg458945.html#msg458945) to mean "I'm not talking more because everyone else has already said what I was going to say" but upon second reading I realize that probably isn't the case, as it really reads as "I'm not talking because enough people have talked". Wrathie brings up a good point in that Slaves and Donut likely aren't a scumpair, too.

That being said, in the general case, I'm not going to not point out something I think is wrong with someone's case just because they think the person that case is on should respond to it first.

Donut, I did not want you to be "more clear" about the lynch pool. I knew exactly what you were getting at. What you're doing with those lynch pools is herding the town by trying to subtly convince them toward only looking at a handful of suspects with ignoring all others. Focusing in on a small set of players is not a good thing, especially not this early. I will want a cop claim at the very least before I even start considering throwing out players as suspects. There are people I think are townier than others, sure, but that doesn't mean I'm not going to consider them. For example, both Drake and yourself have plummeted down my townie list despite being near the top at the very beginning of today.

"Dangerous assumptions", as Wrathie put it, are not pro-town, and misdirection via those assumptions is certainly not a townie action.

I was engaging Kilga and didn't want to move on until I was done with him.  Saying I had a "simple one-liner clear of Kilga" shows that you didn't read it or what I was doing.

And yet Kilga had no problem discussing things with both yourself and Pesco at the same time. What made it impossible for you to discuss Kilga and Pesco at the same time, especially when Pesco's response to your question was so incredibly lackluster? Not "wanting to" is hardly a good reason - town should always want to grill people they find scummy.

this an underhanded way of saying "lol I'm not scum with Donut"?  ::)

I'm going to asume you meant Slaves and not myself with that quote.

This latest post is a lot of "if I were scum" and a bit of snapping back at Wrathie for not taking you at your word about your opinion of Alice as an NK choice. The crucial thing you appear to be holding onto, however, is the use of the hidden vote. It is true that scum would want to keep it hidden more than town - but the vote wasn't hidden, was it? You admit you "came into possession of it" here (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg460597.html#msg460597), meaning whoever had it on Day 1 would know of its existence. I say this because I know of this mechanic; I have a secret item of my own. Based on what I know about my secret item and the game mechanics surrounding it, you didn't just happen into a second vote overnight, it came from someone else who had it first. Suddenly the hidden vote isn't so hidden, since whoever had it Day 1 knows it's floating around. You also know you could later lose it anyway, which would make hanging onto it in silence pointless for scum. Given all that, I see using it today as a reasonable move for scum to make, just so you could try to look townie about it (and point back at it later, just as you are doing now).

Post by: Kiva-la on October 14, 2010, 06:47:05 PM
And before anyone calls "dangerous assumptions" on my secret item speculation, I admit it's possible Donut just happened into a secret vote by whim of mod, but based on what I have seen myself in regards to secret items and how their mechanics work, it is certainly not at all a sure thing that the vote was hidden, which really hurts that defense.

(And no, I'm obviously not going to say what my secret item does.)

To hit on my Valentia point again, Purvis made this statement back in post 173

As bad as Valentia is, there's something here telling me I don't want to vote for her. Not yet. Part of it is the mad dash to her right after Sana's flip, and part of it is looking back at that post and going "that post is just bad". Bad bad. Unhelpful bad. Anti-town bad. But...I don't know if I see it as scummy. I look at it and think "What would make scum more likely to post this than town? What advantage does scum hope to gain by being this unhelpful?" And I have no answer to these questions. When I do, I'll be ready to vote for her.

I've thought about it and there's one situation I can come up with:

Pesco was bad. Really - how does scum get themselves lynched on day one, short of falling into the '3rd/4th on the train is scum' trap? A statistical fluke. I agree with Wrathie - it boggles the mind how it happened, but there you go.

One way to help ride out the storm: be bad, too. Obfuscatingly bad. Pesco screwed up not in the same sense Valentia is; he lurked and his defense for it was bad and he paid the price for it. Yet, going back to the '3rd/4th on the train' trap - Valentia fell into this too. So she's either being obfuscatingly bad on purpose or is a newbie scum. Or a clueless townie. I can't verify it either way, but the outcomes are 2:1 for scum. (Which probably doesn't mean anything analysis-wise.)

WRT to Donut's vote: He claims to have deployed it and we didn't see any notification of it. At least, going back to check on the mod votecounts there was no indication of it being used. Can we prove that it's even gone or that it was even used? Lots of Variables, here.

He also mentioned in #183:

Quote
I'm Town.  If you can't see that after I threw away the ability for scum to let SUPER STEALTH LYLO go by - AND allowed my hypopartner to throw away my SUPER STEALTH LYLO MAKER one-shot vig - please learn to play Mafia.

I'm guessing 'hypopartner' is a hypothetical partner - ie a supposed scum buddy of Donut's. But here I'm disquieted. How do we know that scum had the one-shot vig - I don't know where this idea came into play. It's also been bugging me for awhile that the dayvig was used on Kilga in the middle of a train on Trance. Maybe this is just leading into a bad train of circular logic, but isn't there two reasons one would do this - either to incriminate Trance or take the fire off him? Wrathie suggested earlier that this was a dangerous train of thought so I'm not enthusiastic about following it despite its bothering me.

Post by: Kiva-la on October 14, 2010, 11:15:23 PM
Look down. Back up. What's that in Post #141? It's a votecount, with a vote from "Basement Dweller" attached to Sana. Look again. Post #141 is now Post #142, where Donut claims the extra vote to be his! Anything is possible with the power of checking the vote counts. I'm on a roll.

You'll have to pardon me for not really wanting to base my case on Refuge in Audacity, especially in a role madness game. There's no way of knowing the prevaling town opinion won't ultimately swing toward Valentia anyway, and there's no way to be sure Valentia would survive whatever role madness throws at us.

Alright, Violentia's style of enigmatic posting is getting on my nerves.  I hardly want such a player to be present during LyLO, if deciding whether he is scum or noobtown can only be akin to gambling.  Even if we play wonderfully in the next two days, we are not going anywhere with this shadow of a newbie haunting us day and night.  At the very least, Trance had some content to him, and donut has some connections but since Violentia is not and is throwing votes left and right to avoid modkill, I think it might be best to lynch Violentia today.

##Unvote
##Vote: Violentia

---

I'm not sure if I agree with wrathie's case about  the potential bus and the awkward shifting from Kilga to pesco, but I really do not like donut's scumhunting.  Just making a blanket statement that most people are pro-town and voting those not in that list just for that reason is very very lazy, especially if there are little to no reasons.  It also releases the pressure and allows you to miss out on a whole lot of people in order to get some easy lynches.  And this attitude rather fits scum's ideal way of playing; to look as townie as possible while merely trying to get the easy lynches through impressive pieces of faux reasoning.  Seeing that most of your post is dedicated to stalwart defense and self-justification rather than hunting scum, it's also fair to say that your actual content isn't very huge.

And of course, saying I would have killed that and this if I were scum is meaningless, because anyone could have said that... but I'll take a closer look on him the next day.  Right now, I feel that Violentia should be lynched first.  Perhaps donut will pump out  more content once the newbies are gone.

Many thanks to Purvis for finding the vote.  There's disputing my motives and then there's disputing what's actually on the page.

I'm actually curious as to who or what is running the item swap.  I liked my first item better (though in scum hands it could also cause stealth LyLo), and scum shouldn't have picked up that Vig for obvious reasons.  I doubt anyone will be forthcoming with that information though.

It's entirely possible to be completely fooled by scum acting Town, sure.  It's happened before to all of us.  But one, it's not early.  Assuming two scum left, tomorrow is LyLo if we mislynch today and we've already had plenty of revealing discussion up to this point.  And two, simply because I don't think a large group of people are scum doesn't mean I ignore them completely.  I wondered about Wrathie after the kill-ga, and after reconsideration I still think he's Town.  Process of elimination is a wonderful thing, and to say that you're not willing to consider people Town without a Cop investigation is to take out what's arguably the easier approach of finding scum.

As I said before, I expected to get grilled for my play sooner or later.  The fact that this push is soaking up a real-time day is discouraging.  It's not impossible for me to get lynched over obvious scum.  But what really frustrates me is that the people who are pushing me as scum are my top Town reads and no doubt everyone else's.  It's a waste.

I have explained over the course of at least three posts why I think these assumptions are at least IMO are likely to be accurate.  If you don't buy into them, consider that I'm wrong but working with the best information I have instead of SCUM SEKRETLY TRYING TO MISLEAD TOWN TO ITS DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM.

And yet Kilga had no problem discussing things with both yourself and Pesco at the same time. What made it impossible for you to discuss Kilga and Pesco at the same time, especially when Pesco's response to your question was so incredibly lackluster? Not "wanting to" is hardly a good reason - town should always want to grill people they find scummy.
The theory was that I wanted to stay primarily on Kilga's case so the pressure didn't come out like "I'm pressuring you now but if you give a good answer I can hop onto this next person and you can skate by".  Believe it if you wish.

Given Alice's level of play, I wouldn't be surprised if anyone decided to off him first, be they SK or Vig or Scum.
Anonymafia.  Alice does not necessarily mean Alice, in spite of the similarity in posting style.  Come on now.
And really, I doubt the mod was screwing with us when he chided the scum on not wanting to make a kill (or not being present to submit one, more likely).

Quote from: Mode
How do we know that scum had the one-shot vig - I don't know where this idea came into play.
Kilga was the one person people have been willing to call obvious town.  Who on EARTH would vig the golden townie?  OH THAT'S RIGHT.

Stuff like this is why I wanted to lynch you in the first place.

Quote from: Slaves
Just making a blanket statement that most people are pro-town and voting those not in that list just for that reason is very very lazy, especially if there are little to no reasons.  It also releases the pressure and allows you to miss out on a whole lot of people in order to get some easy lynches.
The people getting voted today, minus myself and plus Mode, all just happen to be the people who have been off my Town list since the beginning of the day.   Are you suggesting that I should be digging up dirt on people I think are Town for the sake of "scumhunting"?

Nice "easy" vote btw.

And thus, I have returned from real life into the world of the internet!

About me being so called "under the radar" and being scum for being so under the radar, i generally do not have much to add to other peoples statements as is.

The case behind Sana at the moment could possibly lead her to be lynched, still not sure on it and i rather not vote on it as of yet.

The first half of this quote, I said at the end of day one. This brings me under fire from... plenty of people. The second half, however, I did the opposite and lead the charge, which brought me under attack from the other half of the board. At this point, it's pretty much a coin toss between you and me for the lynch.

I see no point in the,"Lynch anything" tatic, seems like a pull out a machine gun and spray option which isnt the smartest idea ever

Unless a bigger spark of evidence appears Sana is off my scum list.

But there were reasons pointed at Sana, making the votes somewhat reasonable. You just decide not to jump on it, and the escape from Sana flips up town. I'm not sure who is more deserving of this day's lynch, but it is clear that neither of us are wanted for the final phase of the game. However, I will refrain from voting on you currently....

*is prodded*

fine fine.

##vote trance

Since there is a case on him at the moment.

What the hell?

Also, Kilga just died. Somebody is either seeking attention, avoiding it, or just wanted a random kill in the middle of the day.

Post by: Skull on October 15, 2010, 03:54:18 AM
No seriously Donut, why are Valentia and/or Trance obvious scum? I will entertain the notion that you could be Townie just pushing this reckless train of newbscum thought, but I want another summarization. You brushed me off last time and I interpreted it as not wanting to say something that would incriminate yourself. Your votes have been too fluid between them through the Day, and it smacks of indifference as to which one is the "more correct lynch" which is how Scum like to roll. But they are 2 different people with 2 potentially different alignments. Differentiate them and explain why one is better than the other for today.

And where's your suspicion of virtually every player piling onto either of them EXCEPT the supposed 2 who look the most Townie right now. That means there's scum on one or both of those wagons and with LYLO so damn close now, chances are damn high at least one of them is incorrect and actually a Townie.

I just decided to look into this a different way. At the start of Day 2, everyone checked in at least once before Sana's escape. Here's the votecount (yes, I see the hidden vote now):


Sana Spice (4): HoboverlordPurvis, Omega Wrathie, TranceTheHime, Basement Dweller
TranceTheHime (2): Sana Spice, Slabes
Slabes (2): Kilgajesus, Kuruminut
Violentia (1): GODrake

Not Voting: Violentia, Easy Modo


Addendum 1: Modo voted Valentia first, then Slaves, then unvoted due to the hidden vote thing.
Addendum 2: Nut votes Violentia the post after this votecount. #142
Addendum 3: Sana summons in #143.

So, from a Scum point of view, before #143, they could count on Sana probably being mislynched. Thus, they could either stay on Sana (being lazy), or push an alternative case. Unless Scum explicitly stayed on the Sana wagon, they were pushing someone else for mislynch. If we assume 2 scum left, that means at least 2 of the above have to be mislynches anyways. Let's ignore which one of these they are for the moment. Here is something I am disturbed by. As of the current time, Donut has now voted Trance. In essence, he has voted all 4 of the above people during the day! There is so much wrong with this kind of scumhunting I can't even put it into words. Seriously, I want this damn point to be looked at and his explanation for all the switches.

Trance, who do you think is scum?

Valentia, who do you think is scum, and why? Don't just say "other people think they're scum". Why do you think they're scum? If you need to parrot, do so. Find the specific points already made and explain why you put the most stock in them.

It just occurred to me that Donut has now admitted he knows of the item swap mechanic as well. He thus would have known from his Day 1 item that items were losable - and that his secret vote item must have come from someone else. And he still tried to pass off using it now in his defense because scum would want to keep it hidden even though it wasn't hidden the instant he got it and he knew it.

I never actually said Valentia and Trance were obvious scum.  I don't know which of the two is better and with no further decentposting it's hard to tell or really care.  It would be a bit easier if Slaves or Trance would answer the questions I've posed to them but y'know.

Chances are very high that one of the three wagons is on a Townie, yes.  It's also likely that one of the two not-me wagons is also on a Townie.  And if you read my recent post - this is becoming a familiar theme in my responses - I've expressed that Slaves' vote was actually quite dubious and Trance isn't making any sense from any PoV.

But let's take a look at the vote count.

Violentia (2): Easy Modo, GODrake
TranceTheHime (2): Slabes, Kuruminut
Kuruminut (2): Omega Wrathie, HoboverlordPurvis
In spite of what I said in my previous post (oh look! suspicion!) I'm sticking with Mode-town for today at least.
I haven't had time to pay attention to Drake all day; I can do that the next time I get a chance.
Slaves is on my scumlist.
I'm not on my scumlist.
You're not on my scumlist.
Purvis is also not on my scumlist.
The two people not shown here ARE on my scumlist.

Okay.  Small words time.
I find more than one person scummy.
I vote to pressure them.
When I find someone I want lynched I'll stay there.

I don't know how the vote swap works.  Scum passing to scum -> awesome.

Trance just broke his alleged post restriction.  I would like an explanation.

If it weren't for that I would vote Slaves for essentially lining up my lynch after Valentia.

Actually I may still do that.

Done skimming the thread for Drake with a side of Slaves.

So the only real post he has on D2 is chiding Valentia for bad play (I sense a familiar theme here with his D1 votes).  He's even kind enough to not say anything else when the vote count resets.

Rereading Day 1 Drake still looks as bad as I first thought. 
Quote
Feeling confident that either you or Wrathie is scum. Doubtful that you both are because it feels absurd to me that scum would tie themselves to each other, but I suppose weirder things have happened. Leaning a little more towards Wrathie right now pending a response to my queries from last post.
lol, I've seen this kind of logic from flipped scum in this game!

The first and last time Slaves mentioned Drake was in a post where he gives a Love Tap of Suspicion.  The next part is interesting too. 
Quote
But well, Drake, I had a third vote given to me by Violentia on the first page without reasoning (which I think it's fine), but why didn't you raise this over that?  Not likely to explain much, since they're the same person, but you're going to have to do more than just implicating people as scum for suspecting you.   

But ending RVS to me takes a little bit of town effort, so I'm actually much more wary on Kilga for jumping on the bandwagon without much reasoning; how is chiding Trance and encouraging scumhunting scummy by itself?  I don't agree with what donut is saying, but at least his reasoning seems more extensive to showing why he is scum.
Wait, what?

The last D1 Drakepost says "gee I missed a lot" (which happens to be remarkably similar to how his first D2 post began, but this one comes with a lot more text) and manages to hop onto Pesco.  In Drake's situation as Town or scum I would expect that because not jumping on Pesco at that point would have been stupid.  However, most of the post is excusing himself from voting Wrathie (who is absent from all of his future posts) and uselessly flaming "lurkers", of which he himself has become.

Somehow Slaves' waffling has zoned from Sana + Trance (no opinion) to Trance + Valentia (Trance, definitely not Valentia) to Valentia + Donut (Valentia).  As mentioned before, Valentia is basically a policy lynch.  You want easy lynches?  It doesn't get easier than that.

Why waffling?  I explained why I thought Trance more interesting than Sana, and how Violentia is absolutely not interesting in playing the game as opposed to Trance, who at least seems like he is.  I did not know that Violentia would be that hateful in not providing anything at all to work with, but she was, apparently, which is why I changed my vote.  And if you think that vote-hopping is not scummy, why are you applying that concept to me?  I certainly am allowed to think more than one person scum too (yes, I do think that your methods and explanations need questioning, see below), and I'm interested to know the difference between waffling and vote-hopping.  And of course, fabricating scumpairs and trying to go anywhere with them is always dubious at best.

Besides, with nine-tenths of your posts used to justify your methods and engage in a rather drawn-out and non-useful defense using WIFOM and stuff like that (scum would not do that!  I would be lurking, looking at me is a waste of time! etc.), and the other one-tenth voting people on the sole merit of them not being on your town list plus rather strange reasons (lining up your lynch?  How?)  I could say that you are the one roaming round the bandwagons and seeing which one gains some weight without much differentiation between the targets (where did your Mode case go?  ...Trance was more likely to submit the Kilgakill?) without much logical justification.  Out of the four to five people not on your list, I have no idea about how you look at things since you often change your votes without reference to what they actually did.  This is the reason why your vote changes are rather questionable at best and seemingly borne more of indecision than any great scumhunting drive.

Donut, I said item swap, not vote swap. Are you seriously telling me that, even though you had an item yesterday and lost it, and received a different item today, you didn't know that items could be gained or lost, or that they could move between players? If you DID know that, why did you try to claim that you, as scum, would try to keep the secret vote hidden when it was no longer hidden the instant it changed hands?

Slaves, is Donut scum or not? And why are you attacking him for spending a lot of time defending when he's spent a lot of time being attacked?

Nonono.  You said "you were not in either camp" in between Trance and Sana.  It's a shame Sana left because I'm interested in how you would have broken that tie.

Your votes today have been interested in punishing bad play.  You said you would choose between Trance and Sana based on whether Trance made a nice post, Valentia evidently rocketed up your scumlist because of bad posting, and Trance isn't anywhere in sight because his posting is relatively not that bad.

How much more clear do you need me to be?  The case on Sana was self-evident.  I agreed with Kilga about you.  I launched a fairly nice attack on Mode, although there was no vote attached.  I provided a reason for going to Valentia clearly based on what was inthread.  I provided reasons for going on and off Trance, and then back to you.

Quote
Besides, with nine-tenths of your posts used to justify your methods and engage in a rather drawn-out and non-useful defense using WIFOM and stuff like that (scum would not do that!  I would be lurking, looking at me is a waste of time! etc.),
It's non-useful because people don't know what to look for.  This may or may not be my fault.

Looking at me - and in particular Purvis and Wrathie looking at me because they don't need the Town cred - IS a waste of time.  It's hard for me to go anywhere when we're the only three people posting out of eight.

Well, yes, though what I meant was what you would do during D3.  How is this bad, and if I were 'lining up' someone's lynch, would it be scummy?

Quote
You said "you were not in either camp" in between Trance and Sana.

That's certainly not akin to waffling.  It was simply witholding judgment until Trance posted; I did not have any inclination to vote on over the other at that point in time (since they were equally scummy), but I felt that Trance needed a looking at, hence the vote. (in fact I said that Sana was more original than Trance, which amounts to an opinion).

And aren't all votes engineered to punish play you find bad?  How is this waffling and not 'vote-jumping'?

Quote from: Purvis
And why are you attacking him for spending a lot of time defending when he's spent a lot of time being attacked?

He certainly could have been more succinct and dropped all that obfuscatory nonsense about what scum would do and what not. 

--

As for that question, I would say that yes, you are scummy (I thought I said that in brackets) before Trance (for reasons already given) and Violentia (for not playing).  Firstly, you agreed with Kilga about me and yet found a snippet from Violentia's post without waiting for my response and jumped unnecessarily onto Violentia's wagon, without making known your opinions to my response.  Secondly, you changed from Violentia to Trance due to the mod speculation you admitted to and without any post from Violentia.  Then you drop that Trance point and switch back to me because I am apparently 'lining up your lynch'.  How is that in any way solid?  It's more schizophrenic then evidence that you are considering many scum, with very little follow-up to anything and 'points' to terse and random to be original.  The Drake post you made this page was slightly better but it also amounts to nothing for today. 

And of course, that post contradicts with your past position that 'the case on the people I voted are mostly based on the fact that they don't appear on my town list', since you actually start analyzing, analysis you certainly could have done rather than do this post (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg461177.html#msg461177) at that point in time. 

In your favor, you had strong activity (but concerned with defending yourself and not finding scum in my opinion) and something decent on Mode (which was not followed up on), but that's about it in my opinion.  But of course, not enough to tip Violentia off for now for reasons explained.  Would rather get rid of people who could cause lots of pain for LyLO.

I never actually said Valentia and Trance were obvious scum.  I don't know which of the two is better and with no further decentposting it's hard to tell or really care.

That "[not] really care" part is what irks me. You should damn well care if you're a Townie. Scum are the ones who never really care unless it's one of their own. And Nut, the obvscum question I asked stems from something in your previous post:

As I said before, I expected to get grilled for my play sooner or later.  The fact that this push is soaking up a real-time day is discouraging.  It's not impossible for me to get lynched over obvious scum.  But what really frustrates me is that the people who are pushing me as scum are my top Town reads and no doubt everyone else's.  It's a waste.

Of course, now that you've placed a bet on Trance being emo Town newbie and feel icky about the Valentia wagon now, it's definitely not a case of obvious scum anymore right? Also, if you had given the people who are the most likely Townies satisfactory explanations, they would have moved on. In your case, it hasn't happened and I personally don't see it as a waste of time.

Vote-hopping is not scummy.  Repeat.  Vote-hopping is not scummy.

Context Nut, context. I don't think I've ever seen anyone vote 4 different people on a day other than Day 1. When the premise suggests several if not all of those 4 people are mislynches (voted before Town Sana's escape), I say it jumps into the scummy territory. Slaves described why its bad decently well in #214.

Drake is long overdue for a prod. Please prod him mods. Also, votecount and time left please. I know we're probably under 12 hours left now.

Slaves: You have suspicion of Donut for a variety of reasons, but will not let off Valentia because he's more spazzy or something? Understand this, we are here to lynch scum, not liabilities. You even say Donut is more scummy than either Trance or Violentia. If Town is correct about Donut being Scum, Town does not lose ground. In such a case, you can readdress Violentia tomorrow if you prefer.

If scum have that extra vote in LyLo, they win.  It doesn't matter who knows about it or not.

Missing the point, again. You used the fact that scum-you would want to keep the vote hidden in your defense of why you were town - but the vote wasn't hidden anymore by the time you got it, making that defense null.

There are a little less then 4 hours left in the day.

I will not be here when the day ends - I agree with Slaves about Violentia remaining a liability, but I'm willing to go along with Wrathie. I've read him consistently town throughout, and if Violentia or Donut is scum, Donut is the one who is skilled enough to hide it without resorting to refuge in audacity. As such, vote change, as neither side seems to want to budge.

Yay, Drake prod.

This deadline wagon rush should be interesting, what with all the lurkers coming out.

I'll go ahead and tell you the fun stuff now.

I'm an Edible (not THAT Edible) Pastry, something of an Untargetable-maker.  I target someone, anyone who targets them instead takes a nibble.  I was seductively nibbled five times last night, thrice by the same person, after targeting Purvis (who else?).  In the event that I'm nibbled enough, I allegedly die (although five times seems like a lot to me, but what do I know?).  I wouldn't mind No Lynch today if I died overnight, but all of you might.

My original item allowed me to vote for a day after death.  Lynching scum holding this in LyLo will cause a Town loss.

My reads are pretty much as I've been saying for quite the while now.  I really don't trust this vote from Mode, what with the reasoning being "Donut is skilled and also what Wrathie said" but with too many unknowns and lurkers it's hard to point fingers in any solid direction (esp. since I strongly suspect the scum are among the lurkers, not a difficult hypothesis considering the concertedly active people are me and the incredibly obvious Townies).  I don't know if Slaves' efforts are genuine or not; by the time he started talking I was an easy target.  With any luck this setup is reasonably balanced and there's only one Mafioso remaining.  If not, try not to get randomly screwed by items tomorrow.

Massclaim tomorrow.  There's a fairly nice chance that you can pick out fake claims with the amount of flavor in this game.

I'm used to a different site meta.  I won't admit to playing a clean game by any means but I will admit to each of us tripping over each other's expectations.

If I could shoot one player it would be Drake.  The reread for Drake turned into a reread for Drake+Slaves simply because I needed to do read both, FWIW.  Anyway, Drake is obviously experienced and doesn't have a single satisfying vote to his credit as of the present.

The chance of there being at least one scum on the Valentia wagon as of the last vote count is actually very good.  Trance is probably not scum.  It would be hilarious if Valentia was (bussed) scum.

I should be here in a few hours to answer any further questions or griping.

Oh, I can reveal Kilga's, though.

Kilgajesus the Super Neighbor was kneecapped to death during Day 2. He was in possession of a Lie Detector at the time of death.

Alice Boofybofh was in possession of a Possessed Item Identifier at the time of death, as well.

Post by: Serela on October 16, 2010, 12:56:37 PM
GODrake had fallen asleep out of a sudden ontake of laziness, for... most of the day. This hadn't gone unnoticed, and he was being herded to the Lynching Door by the mob of survivors.

"Oh come on, I'm here now, so we can still lynch Donut instead, riiiight?", he whimpered. But no, it was too late; there might not even be time to pull off a Donut lynch anymore!

"...fuck. God dammit. I can't believe I succumbed to laziness even during this.", Drake said. But... wait, something was a bit off. "It's wearing off; shiiit... I guess I deserve this, anyway.", he moaned.

And then, he seemed to start... melting. But only a little bit; then his skin formed back into place, but... it wasn't Drake. Everyone gasped.

NeoSerela pouted. "I really messed this up, didn't I? Well, I prepared for it, at least." As everyone tried to figure out what the hell just happened, No-Longer-Drake-Serela pulled out a remote control, and pressed a button; there was a strange noise coming from behind the Lynching Door, now. "Emergency escape mode, go!" Serela then jumped behind the lynching door, and the strange sound travelled upwards at a fast speed, before disappearing.

They saw a parachute outside the window that had been broken earlier, as who was presumably Serela fell safely outside.

Then the tied, gagged, and blindfolded body of the real Drake rolled down the stairs, kicking and giving muffled yells, as the intercom voice came on.

"Umm. I wonder if that's a good thing, or a bad thing? So, I guess Night 2 starts now?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ImpersonatorSerela the Psycho Villain escaped, but failed to accomplish their goal.

The real Drake has returned, and is not lynched.

When everyone woke up, they all tried to figure out who was missing. It didn't take long; after a few seconds, they all instantly noticed what was missing.

As they entered his room, they saw Wrathie in his bed, haven been drowned in his sleep with a bowl of good gravy.

And then the bomb Wrathie had hidden under his mattress exploded.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Omega Wrathie the Maniacal Princess  was killed during the night. He was in possession of a Mystery Bomb and a Magical Tree Stump at the time of his lynch.

Results of the Mystery Bomb are being processed. Day 3 starts now. You have 72 hours.

With 7 alive, it takes 4 to lynch.

I can't say I expected ANY of that to happen.

I was Roleblocked.  <insert edible pastry flavor pun here>

If there is more than one scum left alive this is a bastard mod.  (Oh wait.)

Trance is probably definitely not scum after deliberately pushing the unfavored lynch and pissing half the game off. 
Which brings us down to {Valentia, Mode, Slaves, off-chance of Drake}.

Question for Drake.  When did you lose access to your account?

I want three things before I launch into today:

- The results of that Mystery Bomb, or at least whatever we're going to get in public.

- A claim clarification from Donut. Is your role exactly as you described it? You target someone, they are completely untargetable, you see who targeted them and how many times, you die if you get eaten too much? And nothing else?

- A roleclaim AND substantial post from Drake. I want to know why the hell Day 2 ended the way it did, and something more than "Valentia is obvbad *vote*" which is the only thing you did yesterday. Doing that again will land my vote on you every day until you die.
Title: Re: MotK Psycho Plot Mafia ~ Day 3 ~ BOOOOM!
Post by: Sasword on October 18, 2010, 12:17:06 AM
That was mind-numbingly frustrating. Getting pod person'd is infinitely more frustrating than getting lynched, imo. At least, that's how I felt.

However, the time that I spent being tied up on the sidelines did do me some good, because I managed to figure out a few things. Like for example, I now know for a fact who vigged Kilga yesterday. TranceTheHime, come on down!

Or... Scum got their grubby hands on a baseball bat D2 and decided to use it on the most prominent Townie at the time! Yes yes, i'm sure some of you are wondering why I know all this. Since we've pretty much won if we lynch right today (assuming a 3-man scumteam, which i'd be willing to put money on given the number of players), I see no sense in holding back my roleclaim any longer.

I am a powerswitcher. (Or at least I was, until my rolepower was stolen and replaced with something else as part of my N2 action results. But anyway.) My role power allowed me to switch the special items of any two players (including myself, which is important!). Also to my dismay, I found out N1 that it was compulsory, so after much deliberation I decided on Trance and Val as my two targets.

Why those two? Long story short, I was attempting to minimize the potential disruption faced that such an ability could inflict on town. I decided the best case scenario was to either switch town/town or scum/scum, with the absolute worst possible situation being if a 1-shot vig were to be passed from town to scum. The reason I selected Val and Trance in the end was, I figured that it would be less swingy if I switched two nubbish players over two more experienced players. Sana was suspicious and so was Slabes, and I was on the fence about Mode.


So anyway, N1, I decide to switch TranceTheHime and Violentia. On D2: obvtown Kilga gets kneecapped! So it was definitely scum who did so. I had already been thinking of the possibility of scum getting their hands on a vig, so trying to determine who did it was one of my priorities (Not like I had much else to do thanks to a certain mod, *ahem*. >_>)

I realized the following: People's rolepowers/starting items are very likely related to their persona. I had thought this might be the case when Pesco got lynched and his role was Mindhax, with a Hijacker power item. Additional support came in the form of Kilga's item (Lie detector ---> lol Kilga is good mafier player)

Over N2, I then had a flash of insight. 'Violentia'.... 'Kneecapped'... I bet Val had the 1shot Vig, which would have put it in Trance's hands on D2! Of course, this was still speculation, but luckily I had just the way to prove it. After confirming with mod that 1shot items do not disappear upon use, I switched myself and Trance's items. And lo and behold!


And since this bat recharges whenever it changes hands, I don't see any reason why I should delay this any further. Sorry Trance-kun, I'm still a bit miffed about missing out on D2, but I know just the way to vent my rage!

asdfadfafg goddammit, what the hell. I guess i'm not vigging anything right now, because my item changed into something that isn't a bat. >_> I will request to the mod that further game-related PMs are sent to this account and not my main, because going back and forth is confusing and I missed the last one that informed me 37 minutes after I got the bat and the thread was unlocked that it was suddenly Not-A-Bat.

##Vote: Trance

Trance is 100% scum, and I would be willing to bet every dollar I earn from now until my dying days on it.

Question for Drake.  When did you lose access to your account?

I was informed that I was not allowed to post on my account at all for the entirety of D2. I got the PM at the start of the day.



Re: Purvis - Hey look, I can give you two of the three things! And I might even be able to help you on the remaining one, but I'd rather withold that information until Donut speaks up again.

- The results of that Mystery Bomb, or at least whatever we're going to get in public.

The mystery bomb changed the baseball bat I just got into another item. I don't know if it had more effects than that on other people.

See last post. And I don't know if you happened to miss the D2 ending post, but everything that happened (and didn't happen) with me yesterday was all thanks to the NeoSerela dopperganger running around. If a modpost isn't enough proof for you, just look at the difference in posting style between D1 and what few D2 posts there were.

Targets are not completely untargetable.  I'm told that NKs will fail, at least.  I'm assuming there are other actions that won't work as well.  However, all actions taken on my target will result in a nibble.
I do not see who targets anyone.  I was told that someone targeted me thrice because, iunno, the mod thought it would be cool to do so.  I am, however, told how many total times I'm nibbled.
The notion that I die at all is implied.  Not being able to quote the mod isn't helping but it's possible that I wasn't Roleblocked but simply ran out of charges.  On the other hand, dying after getting eaten too much nicely segues into my starting item, the post-death vote.

This is what I get for skimming a role madness Role PM.

Reading the rest of the post, I agree that roles and possibly alignments (Pesco :D ) are VERY tied to our personas.  Items, well, I didn't think of that but it makes sense.  That's why I highly recommended massclaim yesterday.

I think Mystery Bomb randomized all items.  No, I don't have the bat.

##Vote: Kuruminut

I can see your confused faces on this, but with some help from the mods, I can sort out this mess.

My initial role was stolen Night 1, and I was basically immune to killing powers. However, that disappeared Day 2 and I was left with no role. HOWEVER, when I woke up on Day 3, lo and behold I now have an item swapping role. This brings me to the conclusion that THERE MAY BE MORE THAN ONE ITEM SWAPPING ROLE.

Now, how does this help me? Well, under that revelation, I asked the mod what would happened if two people used the same power to swap the item of a guy twice. The mods responded with that it was based on the order of who sent their actions first. So, the scum who had the bat could have had the item swapping power. Seeing a good opportunity to frame me, THE PERSON CONTAINING THE BAT COULD HAVE SWAPPED THE ITEM TO ME, AND THEN IT GOT SWAPPED TO GODrake.

Now, how did I come to the conclusion of voting for Kuruminut? Well, he stated to have the vig vote that was used on Day 2 which nobody noticed. However, I had the item Day 1, and it disappeared on Night 1. Going with what Drake said in his previous post, VIOLENTIA SHOULD HAVE HAD THE VIG VOTE ON DAY 2. THUS, KURUMINUT COULD NOT HAVE HAD IT UNLESS ONE OF TWO THINGS HAPPENED: HE SWAPPED ITEMS WITH VIOLENTIA NIGHT 1, OR HE AND VIOLENTIA ARE WORKING TOGETHER.

Looking at the Kilga death, it was when the wagon on me was starting to pick up. They clearly could have saw what an opportunity this was to push the focus on me after the death, as the most obvious person who killed Kilga would have definitely been me. So, KURUMINUT AND VIOLENTIA MUST BE THE REMAINING SCUM!

I don't think it would be that obvious to anyone that you killed ga.   I came to the most likely conclusion based on limited information, and I'll bet every dollar of my OWN money that nobody else would have read that much into the situation.

That seems to be the major focus of your case on me, which seems to be based on assuming the worst.  I would counter your speculation with my own but Drake seems to know more about this than I do.

Title: Re: MotK Psycho Plot Mafia ~ Day 2 starts now.
Post by: Sasword on October 18, 2010, 02:36:58 AM
Well, in retrospect I don't see much reason to withold this information, especially with everyone's items changing hands. I had the roleblocker item, and N1 I disabled Slabes while N2 I disabled Donut. In retrospect I probably should have roleblocked Trance instead which could have stopped the NK, but I chose Donut because I got a pretty strong scumread off of him. Hell, I had even suspected he had been involved in tying me up as well!

The combination of being first on my wagon at ED2 and his constant waffling back and forth put him at the top of my scum list (after Trance, of course).  A lot has been said about Donut already, but here's something that stood out to me like a glaring sun.

I'm Town.  If you can't see that after I threw away the ability for scum to let SUPER STEALTH LYLO go by - AND allowed my hypopartner to throw away my SUPER STEALTH LYLO MAKER one-shot vig - please learn to play Mafia.

But it wasn't a throwaway: Vigs and extra votes are almost never allowed in LyLo circumstances. And were you really trying to say that obvtown Kilga who is obviously a high inquisitor great Mafia player is a 'throwaway vote'? Also, very interesting that you attribute 'your hypopartner' as the one that would've had the vig and not yourself. I can't find anything in the backposts where someone suggested that idea... so where'd that come from anyway? Hmm?


FakeeditNinja'd by Trance: ......wow. Y'know what? I'd be willing to bet my living on Donut being scum too, especially after this latest post by Trance.

##Vote: Kuruminut

So if what you say is true, you have my role now. But nowhere does that imply that there is more than one item swapping role. And you're basically trying to tell us... that scum would somehow know that I was planning on switching our items... and that scum would ALSO somehow find it a good idea to pass a vig item to Town? :/

Or the MUCH more likely and less contrived explanation: You're a dirty liar and you and Donut are the remaining scum. Note that Donut never stated that he had the vig vote: it was his 'hypopartner'. I love that both you and Donut accepted what I had to say without a peep of skepticism, and suddenly go balls-out against each other. If that isn't pounding nails in the coffin, I don't know what does. :D

Note nowhere in here that Trance suspects me, when i'm the one claiming the powerswitcher role. If he really was a townie paranoid about being framed, dont'cha think he'd at least bat an eye my way? Both Trance and Donut know for a fact that i'm Town because they are the two remaining scum.

Also, Kilga just died. Somebody is either seeking attention, avoiding it, or just wanted a random kill in the middle of the day.

Man night and day are so short~

Few things happened at night so lemme get things straight first my starting role was to bust some caps with my trusty BASEBALLBAT

But someone nabbed my baseball bat while i was sleeping, darn.

then i somehow stole a role for some unkown reason, kinda bugs me it does but the role i have obtained is ##copafeel, and i used it on our now deaceased wrathie. It tells what rolepower that person contains but we already found out anyway. what a waste  :ohdear:

The new item i have after all this chaos is the item identifier, which allows me to identify what someones power item does during the daylight hours, nifty eh?

But it wasn't a throwaway: Vigs and extra votes are almost never allowed in LyLo circumstances.
There was no such tag on either of the voting abilities I have received.

Quote
And were you really trying to say that obvtown Kilga who is obviously a high inquisitor great Mafia player is a 'throwaway vote'? Also, very interesting that you attribute 'your hypopartner' as the one that would've had the vig and not yourself. I can't find anything in the backposts where someone suggested that idea... so where'd that come from anyway? Hmm?
I don't understand the first question.  I anonyvoted Sana.
As for the hypopartner, if I had the vote, I couldn't also have the Vig.  Or at least that's the idea; Wrathie's two-item flip kind of kiboshes that.

Quote
Or the MUCH more likely and less contrived explanation: You're a dirty liar and you and Donut are the remaining scum. Note that Donut never stated that he had the vig vote: it was his 'hypopartner'. I love that both you and Donut accepted what I had to say without a peep of skepticism, and suddenly go balls-out against each other. If that isn't pounding nails in the coffin, I don't know what does. :D
I wasn't that ballsouty about it, at least not until now.  You presented an intricate and (as far as I know) believable claim and I immediately voted Trance because of it.  The complexity of Trance's claim also initially slowed me, though his theory is not likely given that it requires me to have needlessly switched items with hypopartner Valentia AND his claim doesn't really have anything shockingly Townish about it on second glance (bulletproof seems overpowered for town, and he still hasn't mentioned anything about his role or broken post restriction).

Quote
Note nowhere in here that Trance suspects me, when i'm the one claiming the powerswitcher role. If he really was a townie paranoid about being framed, dont'cha think he'd at least bat an eye my way?
Probably.
But then wouldn't it be easier for Tran-scumberian Orchestra to frame the easiest other person around?  (me)

Quote
Both Trance and Donut know for a fact that i'm Town because they are the two remaining scum.
Aside from the claim, I have to say I'm fairly skeptical of the idea of scum voluntarily replacing themselves with what appears to be a malignant third party, even temporarily.

Thanks for bringing that Trance quote up, btw.  It pretty nicely shows that he tried all of the illogical explanations for the Kilga hit.

What is this I don't even.

I am prepared to vote for Trance at this point, but with the secret vote running around unaccounted for at this point I'm going to hold off. Call me overly cautious.

Drake, if I may fish for a moment, were both the powerswitcher and the roleblocker powers items, or is one inherent to you? You seem to have been implying the former.

In regards to items being related to the people that started the game with them, I am curious why Drake would start with two items were this the case.

Since I no longer have it, I will say my previous item was a Rolecop device. I initially thought it useless (and was even tempted yesterday to try to taunt scum into taking it just so they'd waste their time on it) because I copped Sana and got "Planeteer" with no helpful description, but last night I copped Donut and actually got useful information. The info I got matches up with what he described - everyone who targets the person he targets nibbles him instead, this stops some actions, he knows how many times he was bitten but not by whom. The eventual death trigger is curiously absent, however. (Also he got the actual name of his role wrong but that's neither here nor there. >_>) Even so, I am not particularly inclined to believe he is scum; this is not a particularly useful role for scum, and I'd think it would have been on the NK last night if it WERE scum, but Donut very clearly did not kill anyone last night given the roleblock.

Drake I incline toward town for what has gone down today. Town roleblocker/role switcher combo is extremely odd, but this game is fucked up enough as it is and the roleblocker part at least is not unheard of in the hands of town.

Valentia I believe to be town because no one died D1 and scum not using a potentially refillable, potentially losable anon dayvig is a beyond-retarded move for them to make.

So I think I will be returning to Slaves once Trance is dealt with, as he has made me unhappier than Mode has throughout the game. One can simply read over my posts from Day 2 if they want to see reasons why I do not think him town. I actually would not mind seeing item claims from both of them, though. No one that has posted yet today has claimed the vote OR the bat and they're the only two left. (I suppose it's possible one or both vanished into the aether of corpses, given the lie detector came back from the dead, but.)

The former was inherent and the latter was in the form of a tool. I lost my inherent power last night as the result of an ability used on me, on resolution of my powerswitcher ability. I was informed that in its place I was now a  role stealer, which apparently steals any rolepower it comes across. Whatever that means. This was resolved seperately from the Mystery Bomb, which came later and stripped the bat I got from Trance away from me and replaced it with another item.

I also thought that the ability would be weird for a townie... and after hashing out the possibilities, I'm finding it harder to believe that scum would have such an ability, actually.

Waitaminute.... WAITAMINUTE.

Although I didn't get to have the bat long enough to use it, I did get a description of its abilities. You could choose to vig either during the day OR night. And two people were found dead N1. Valentia COULD have used it after all!

Alright, I need to give this a thorough readover, but maybe I was wrong about you Donut. I don't know why I didn't think about Valentia having used the vig on N1 until now. Giving scum a free vig item, even from the RNG, seems so stupid broken as to be immediately rerolled, but it's within the realm of possibility with this kind of crazy setup.


Also, just to make sure I don't miss the chance before the game is over: om nom nom I love lava cakes

Dammit, I forgot a few things in my defense post, but that's been torn apart. My Night 1 action was used to use my role power #copafeel on Pescohax to find out the exact power he had, and it turns out, he can swap items! Then I asked the mods whether or not you can swap roles with dead people, and it also turned out you can. So we may have another person running around with an item swapping power of Mindhax.

...There's a Purveyor of Fine Leather Jackets running around? That's hilarious.

(If my identity wasn't already obvious, that shuold blow my cover completely, but really, seeing another role stealer ability is just too amusing.)

Anyway. If Valentia really killed N1 I'd be slightly more inclined to think her town - killing Eve would have been a very stupid scum move, given how they played D1.

Post by: Sasword on October 18, 2010, 05:00:21 AM
I bet you that if Mindhax is indeed a swappy ability, then it probably is the role-counterpart to my item-switcher. Ugh, all this role vs item nonsense is confusing, and there's a lot of ambiguity in people's posts. We need to get this straightened out.

Violentia: What was your item and what was your role? You refer to the baseball bat as a role, but it is clearly an item. Please clarify this.

Trance: you too.

and it turns out, he can swap items! Then I asked the mods whether or not you can swap roles with dead people, and it also turned out you can. So we may have another person running around with an item swapping power of Mindhax.



Ninja'd:

Good point, didn't even think about the strategy about it so much as Val could have shot twice after all N1. I need to give things a more thorough lookover tomorrow and revisit this with a fresh mind, as I'm beyond sleepy right now.

Post by: Kiva-la on October 18, 2010, 06:35:05 AM
So a bit of idle speculation while we wait for MODESLAVES 4: THE MAFIAPOSTING.

Given the nature of how Drake's lynch resolved, I'm somewhat inclined to think the responsible party knew what was going to happen. At the very least, they knew Drake would be incapable of defending himself from a wagon coming his way. I myself came out of Day 1 with a town read on Drake, and with the way no one came into Day 2 barrelling down on him with a case, I'm willing to bet I wasn't the only one. Between the nature of his affliction and the town feeling I had on him at the beginning of Day 2, I believe it was very likely scum in origin.

Now, assuming scum put Drake in his pod, they would know beforehand that he'd be a neatly wasted lynch, so I went back and looked at the train on him, which is doubly suspect with the way the day went from fighting back and forth between all the competing trains culminating into the dash to the mod-imposed lurker. I count Donut, Wrathie and myself as legitimate reasons to vote for him. Mode's vote would be suspect under normal circumstances but the "gotta lynch someone" nature of our system (which she cited) makes it forgiveable. Who was the other vote? Trance, with an unexplained vote that completely skipped over his previous top two suspects for no apparent reason and ended up really getting the Drake wagon in gear (he only had one vote at the time). The modkill reasoning that appears later is bleh - as far as I was concerned at that point I was welcoming the modkill, because it meant a free second lynch of someone I wanted dead - and then "Drake" reappeared anyway, rendering even that lone point moot. This vote sticks out like a sore thumb in terms of potential for opportunistic scum to get a lynch from their silencer power.

Not that Trance really needed more against him for me to want to vote him off, but realizing this really seals the deal.

This pretty much cements that everyone lives in a different time zone from me or something.

I was initially bothered by Trance's sudden clarification of something he should have made mention of already but after considering it it's not implausible that his legitimate thought process worked the way it did.  It doesn't make his everyone's-out-to-get-me theory of events much more sound though.

@Purvis:  As much as I don't like what Trance is doing, I don't think that that line of logic is sound.  While I agree that scum had to know what was going on with turning Drake into Gaggles, lynching notDrake wasn't burning a mislynch at all - the only thing it did was waste a day.  It would have been superior for scum to lynch me yesterday.  That goes back to why I said Trance wasn't scum before Drake came in.

Also, your TRUE IDENTITY cannot be more obvious than mine. :P

I roleclaim (orginally) Slaves, the legendary artist who can copy items for one night by drawing pictures of people like Kilga shooting jesus lasers from his eyes!  Night 0, I drew Eve L.Duehr, and her ability was to send a fake PM to anyone else through the mod (which I did not, since i saw no use for it).  Night 1, I drew Kilga but got roleblocked (sadly, in retrospect).  Night 2 I drew donut, and I can confirm his claim as completely true.  Sadly, nothing any different from what Purvis has claimed in the first place.

And no, I do not have the bat now. 

A quick explanation for not voting 'scum' yesterday is due to me believing that voting Violentia was the best option for that day (e.g more 'scummy' than everyone else due to lack of content).  Yes, I thought donut and Trance scum, but for reasons already stated I voted Violentia instead.  Would have hammered Drake for similar reasons if Purvis did not steal it.

Trance with that kind of 'make it up as you go' posting sequence doesn't really cut it for me.  I also severely doubt that there was actually an item with no powers if everyone is telling the truth (until Mode arrives), after all the flips and stuff, making his claim that he had an item with no power very hard to believe.  The way he changes his claim from bulletproof to police sounds rather odd too, and from what I see, it seems that there are a lot of holes in everyone's claims, making him obvious scum to me.  Mode needs to post before I go on any deeper with this role madness (it gives me a headache).

As for everyone else, Drake and Purvis seem to fit the bill of being townie the most.  Mode has even sketchier activity than me (from what I remember, he did not press his late day case on donut very strongly), and feels strange.  I would like to point out that Valentia had no way of knowing that his items could have been easily losable on D1 and thus him not using the dayvig on D1 may not be so townie after all if he's scum; interestingly though, Valentia's story fits both Trance's and everyone else's.  donut feels town due to the nature of his role, but I think things aren't as clear as they should with him... Whatever, I think Mode claiming first will give me something more to work on.  In the end for me, it's a cross between Valentia, Mode and donut as remaining scum.

@Slabes

4 things:

1. Is this drawing ability you describe your rolepower or special item?
2. Can you fill in the blank and claim your other power/role? 
3. Did anything change regarding your rolepower or special item between N2 and today?

and the big thing on my mind, 4. When the heck did we ever get a N0? You're either flat out lying, had a special exception allowing you to use your power before the game started, or Neo flubbed and failed to inform me of such. >>;




@Violentia

My first role was to be a Role stealer, but the role itself was automatic and i had no control of it whatsoever. The role activated on N1 Where i stole the role as a drag commando.

In #258, you say that the role you received was ##copafeel. Is this and 'drag commando' referring to the same thing? Makes sense but I want to make sure I understand you correctly.

It's a safe assumption to make that this role was Trance's, given his predisposition for crossdressing. The role even has scum undertones, being the Rolecop version of the Prostitute! Final nail in the coffin, anyone? 




@Trance

Dammit, I forgot a few things in my defense post, but that's been torn apart. My Night 1 action was used to use my role power #copafeel on Pescohax to find out the exact power he had, and it turns out, he can swap items! Then I asked the mods whether or not you can swap roles with dead people, and it also turned out you can. So we may have another person running around with an item swapping power of Mindhax.

Are you seriously trying to to tell us that you used your #copafeel ability on a corpse? :o

Hell, I still leave open the possibility that you're telling the truth about the Mindhax ability. Two item-swapping abilities in the same game seems ridiculous, but I shouldn't put anything past Neo with what we've seen so far. When I think about it, I could see the setup including powerswitchers for town and scum alike to encourage chaotic movement of items. 

However, there are two possible reasons why you would know what that ability does.

1. Necrophiliac
2. Pesco was your scumbuddy

EVEN IF WE ASSUME that there was a mythical N0 that Slabes mentioned, your admission in #252 (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg463833.html#msg463833) shows that you did not experience an item switcharoo before N1.  And we can assume that at least until this morning, ~*Mindhax*~ has been safely buried.

1) If Slaves inspects items, how did he get anything like what Purvis said?
2) If Trance is pretty much obvious scum, why is he missing from the scumlist?
3) If my role is only good for Town, why the generic suspicion?  I've made things more or less as clear as they're going to be.

Right, so we've had everyone come out and claim something !bat. Except me, but I can confirm I also don't have it. Wanted to get my vote on Trance in the event that someone is being a sneaky scum and LYING about not having the bat, because I expect Drake and myself to be the top two scum vig candidates. If scum want to kill someone else, that's fine by me, because they'd either be removing someone from my suspect pool (I'm not 100% on Donut, as much as I do lean town) or they'd be killing Valentia. Suggest Drake leave his vote on Trance as well.

@Purvis:  As much as I don't like what Trance is doing, I don't think that that line of logic is sound.  While I agree that scum had to know what was going on with turning Drake into Gaggles, lynching notDrake wasn't burning a mislynch at all - the only thing it did was waste a day.  It would have been superior for scum to lynch me yesterday.  That goes back to why I said Trance wasn't scum before Drake came in.

A wasted day is still good for scum, and Drake was a much better vote target for them because he wasn't going to defend himself while you had spent the last many hours kicking and screaming. I am sure they would have liked to see you lynched yesterday (assuming you're town), but it would have taken a lot more effort.

I would like to point out that Valentia had no way of knowing that his items could have been easily losable on D1 and thus him not using the dayvig on D1 may not be so townie after all if he's scum

False: the item portion of my role PM made it very clear that my item was not permanently affixed to me. Not that I said easily losable anyway.

It's a safe assumption to make that this role was Trance's, given his predisposition for crossdressing. The role even has scum undertones, being the Rolecop version of the Prostitute! Final nail in the coffin, anyone? 

As much as I would like to hammer Trance home, the Role Stealer/Purveyor of Fine Leather Jackets is not an inherently scum role. The one game I played with it, it started with town.

I similarly was not aware of a Night 0.

Um... lynching me yesterday would have been very, very easy.  Yes, I had spent plenty of time channeling my inner UncertainKitten but it certainly wasn't convincing anyone.  As far as I know the only reason Drake got lynched was because there was literally no other option after Trance's vote.

I was referring to the ##copafeel ability tied to the 'drag commando' role, which appears to be a Rolecop. I will lend support to Valentia's claim of there being an autonomous Role Stealer ability that she possessed D1, because I currently have that role.  Note, I still have an item that I received from the Mystery Bomb, but all i'm sharing for now is that it is Not-A-Bat (obv.)

Ditto with my item btw.

So you're basically saying that you didn't begin with an item then?

If this is the case, then on N1 and N2 you got the chance to use the cloak, right? Can you share your results?

On night one, I saw Purvis ##Ask Sana.
On night two, I saw Donut ##Pastry Purvis, but he failed.

Well, that would make sense. I don't think that clears you completely as there's still the remote possibility that you two are Lovers or some kind of third party or something. Would like a confirmation by Slabes, as well as answering my questions from last post before proceeding.


As far as I see the ONLY choice for lynch today is Trance. Getting the hard confirmation would cause the rest of the details to fall into place (and comfort my paranoid mind and its endless speculation on this wonky setup). However, there's still a lot that still needs to be said before we end today, so let's not hammer Trance until we've managed to figure this out.

That means that no one should put Trance at L-1 for at least another day, to prevent him from self-hammering. Just thought i'd make that crystal clear.

I've considered the Lovers thing. But thus far in terms of potential alibis I feel like clearing Slaves, myself and Purvis. Maybe Donut and you too, I have to go back and find the role info to see if stuff matches up. Trance is a sold scum to me. Violentia is 'ugh'.

Drake: Oh, okay. Sorry.

Mode: Do you have mod confirmation that you can trust Slaves? More than just "You and Slaves are masons and can talk to each other at any time"? Something along the lines of "You know Slaves to be town"?

I would like Slaves to answer this as well.

My original item's command was indeed Ask.

I figured item and role were a similar thing. You're quoting me back -before- I figured out what Donut meant. (Hence "Oh, for my role..." )

Post by: Sasword on October 18, 2010, 07:22:43 PM
 
"a disabler gun"

So yeah.

If this is true, then there are two roleblocks floating around. Why? Because the roleblocking I had was specifically a tool, and nowhere did it mention being a gun. My roleblocks on Slaves and Donut are accounted for, but the roleblocks from this item are not. Did anyone else aside from Slabes N1 and Donut N2 get roleblocked?
 
Pesco had a Hijacker, Kilga had a Lie Detector, and Alice had a Possessed Item Identifier. Neo never said anything about Eve holding an item, and Wrathie had the Mystery Bomb and Magical Tree Stump. I have a hunch that the Mystery Bomb only switched the items of people that are still alive, which means the bat is likely still out there.  If anyone that isn't Trance has one of the items held by a dead person, they should speak up now. Let's compile what we have so far.


Mode: Trackercloak ---> Disabler gun
Purvis: Rolecop device ---> ??
Slabes: Item copier ---> ??
Drake: Disabler tool ---> Bat ----> ??
Donut: Pastry-protector ----> ??
Trance: ?? ---> Vigbat --> ??
Violentia: Vigbat ----> ?? ---> Item identifier

With the exception of Trance's floundering, nothing contradictory has come up so far it seems. Violentia, can I get a confirmation of what item you ended up with when your bat was taken away?



Title: Re: MotK Psycho Plot Mafia ~ Day 3 ~ BOOOOM!
Post by: Sasword on October 18, 2010, 07:35:20 PM
Looking back over the chart I just posted, a problem already comes to mind. No one will own up to having the bat, yet we can guess that Scum didn't get their hands on it since they would have probably used it by now.

We currently have 6 unique items Trackercloak, rolecop device, item copier, vigbat, pastry protector, and roleblock device, with only five slots to fill them. This suggests that either someone is lying about their past or current item, or the 'disabler gun' and 'disabler tool' are actually the same thing and there's no consistency in the Role PMs. :| Why do I feel like its the latter?

In #258, you say that the role you received was ##copafeel. Is this and 'drag commando' referring to the same thing? Makes sense but I want to make sure I understand you correctly.


First awsner is that, my item was Death resistant! when i got my bat stolen from me, which allowed me to live if lynched or killed otherwise

Second one, the drag commando does go with ##copafeel

Post by: Ouja on October 18, 2010, 09:46:46 PM
So you're basically saying that you didn't begin with an item then?
No.  I'm saying that the mod gave a very large WINK WINK NUDGE NUDGE with the item about possibly losing it.

Mode:  Please don't call yourselves Masons if you're not confirmed to each other. >__>

Quote
On night two, I saw Donut ##Pastry Purvis, but he failed.
This is correct.  Note that until now I didn't reveal who I targeted.

The item chronology for me:  The "pastry protector" is Death Resistant.  I gained the One-Shot Anonyvote overnight (N1).  All of this has been detailed as of my claim D2.  After the Mystery Bomb I wound up with (and presently have) Death Resistant again.  (I am nothing if not hard to kill.)  Given Valentia's claim I suppose I know where my item went in the interim, and since the bat never crossed my hands it's worth assuming that the item change N1 wasn't a one-for-one swap.

##Vote: Kuruminut

I can see your confused faces on this, but with some help from the mods, I can sort out this mess.

My initial role was stolen Night 1, and I was basically immune to killing powers. However, that disappeared Day 2 and I was left with no role. HOWEVER, when I woke up on Day 3, lo and behold I now have an item swapping role. This brings me to the conclusion that THERE MAY BE MORE THAN ONE ITEM SWAPPING ROLE.

Now, how did I come to the conclusion of voting for Kuruminut? Well, he stated to have the vig vote that was used on Day 2 which nobody noticed. However, I had the item Day 1, and it disappeared on Night 1. Going with what Drake said in his previous post, VIOLENTIA SHOULD HAVE HAD THE VIG VOTE ON DAY 2. THUS, KURUMINUT COULD NOT HAVE HAD IT UNLESS ONE OF TWO THINGS HAPPENED: HE SWAPPED ITEMS WITH VIOLENTIA NIGHT 1, OR HE AND VIOLENTIA ARE WORKING TOGETHER.

to disect this a bit i suppose.

I never had the vig vote, the only items ive had are the bat, the death resistance and the item identifier which i have today on D3

i can and will agree with the more than one item swap role since items are going everywhere and anywhere for some reason.

on night 1 i only got the death resist item which Kuruminut has right now, but he ended up with it due to the mystery bomb!

the results of the mystery bomb did not shine down on me as i didnt recieve any kind of item from it.
im going to pull my punches and vote for trance just for now

In other words, if someone is lynched, and they are not a correct lynch, night actions will decide whether or not the game ends or lasts another day. If you don't lynch there will definitely be a d5.

##Vote: Purvis

Want to get this out RIGHT NOW in case of Deus Ex Machina silences me before I could say anything.

Purvis has rode through this game free of suspicion, being at the top of everyone's Town lists. But why? What has he done to deserve such a Town read from everyone? I didn't expect to live through the day and as such I didn't prepare a substantial post, but having gone over the details and iso readings of the remaining players, Purvis stands out by far as the most likely person to be Scum in this pool.

Post by: Sasword on October 21, 2010, 01:00:59 AM
Expect a more substantial post in a few hours. In the meantime, how about a roleclaim from you Purvis? You are notably the only person that is a complete question mark regarding role information. Quickchart time!

Slabes and Mode: Masons
Donut: Pastry-protector
Violentia: Role stealer to drag commando (rolecop)
Drake: Powerswitcher --> Role stealer to ???
Purvis: ???

In addition, it'd be great if we could get Slabes to confirm Mode's claim today.

Title: Re: MotK Psycho Plot Mafia ~ Day 4 ~ Pseudo-MyLo!
Post by: Kiva-la on October 21, 2010, 01:02:18 AM
I would ask for an actual case against me since there is literally nothing in that for me to defend against (though I will point out that we have a killstopping role floating about in whoever has the Donut power, so a no-death night is not unfeasible) but since you're not going to lynch me anyway I'm not going to waste town's time in getting bogged down in such an argument.

Roleclaim: One-shot Lynchstopper, where I specifically choose who I do not want to be lynched, and there's nothing in my role PM telling me I can't choose myself.

Fake Edit: Y'all are far too impatient.

Anyway. Still very much doubt Val is scum despite letting the day end like that. Still doubt Donut is scum. Drake is possibly crazy (or podded again) but not really thinking he's scum, though I'm more likely to change my mind on him than the other two.

Mostly looking at Mode and Slaves at this point, the latter more than the former. Would like to hear from Slaves on a number of things, such as mason status and item status.

Wonderful. I've just learned that, despite my role PM not saying I can't stop my own lynch, I can't stop my own lynch. Whatever, I'll fight with the mod in postgame about this.

So. I apparently stand accused of being suspicious because I haven't been suspicious? Or what. I'm not really sure I understand, since I didn't actually think people here would try to use Too Townie as reasoning against someone. Of course, didn't think people would use "you didn't die!" as reasoning against someone either, so I guess that shows what I know.

Is there something I've specifically done that you are seeing as scummy that I can explain why I did it? This would be a lot more productive than throwing out votes for reasons I can't actually defend. Extra nice would be reasons why I'm scummier than Slaves.

Though presumably Drake will be posting this post soon, so...I guess I'm twiddling my thumbs until then.
Title: Re: MotK Psycho Plot Mafia ~ Day 4 ~ Pseudo-MyLo!
Post by: Ouja on October 21, 2010, 01:20:41 AM
Purvis is like the last person I expected anyone to accuse.  Is there anything suspect in particular you want me to look at?

The fact that we're in pseudo-MyLo in spite of having never mislynched is kind of insane (it means that there are two groupscum left or a way to get three people to die).  Either we're looking at a Cult, a four-person Mafia (WHAT), a three-person Mafia with a Death Miller/izer on Pesco, or bastard mechanics as yet unrevealed that would allow for three deaths in rapid succession (a simple extra vote won't cut it).

So with that relatively unhelpful information out of the way, this is pretty much my list of suspicion.

1) Slaves.  His claim is full of holes, not the least of which is claiming an N0 target.  Calling fakeclaims are probably the most reliable way of finding scum at this point.
2) Mode.  Why, might I ask, did Slaves never mention anything about being fake-masons with Mode?  We've already established that Slaves is fakeclaiming and everything, but if Mode was Town he would have no reason NOT to talk about it for fear of being called out on it.  I mean, they're even NEIGHBORS, unconfirmed to each other.  That doesn't raise them up the scumkill target chart NEARLY as much as if they were confirmed to each other.  In fact, Slaves even said that Mode was a pick for the last scum.  Did anything that was said in private lead him to that?
3) Valentia.  Even someone playing at Valentia's level should have read the DON'T VOTE TRANCE warnings, and I actually kind of hate this most recent vote.
7) Purvis.  Has looked Townish all game.  I'll reread him (eventually) because Drake said so but I don't expect to find anything.
11) Drake.  No wait, scum would absolutely bus Trance after being hijacked and replaced by some third party.    Sorry, obvscum!  (kidding)

To clarify, I was a vanilla with a role-switching item.  Thinking about the item/power distinction, I have no idea  about whether I'm copying their roles, their items, or both.  (it seems like a role however).  Also, I will clarify that although I can talk to Mode, I have no mod-confirmation that he is town at all.  Also, I was given the opportunity to  copy an ability right off the bat, which seemed like a N0... either that or it's just special for me.  I did nothing in between N2 and D3, as I said my item changed due to the mystery bomb. 

Quote
) If Slaves inspects items, how did he get anything like what Purvis said?
2) If Trance is pretty much obvious scum, why is he missing from the scumlist?
3) If my role is only good for Town, why the generic suspicion?  I've made things more or less as clear as they're going to be.

And donut, Trance I labelled obvious scum in that post, and would have hammered if I had access to a computer yesterday.  Also, on N2, I drew you and that revealed that you have the pastry item, for that gave me the ability to pastry someone as well. 

Quote
Does this or does this not seem like a scum ability?  If so, why didn't you do anything to suggest that Eve may be scum on Day 1?

As for Eve, well, that kind of ability seems impossible to determine alignment from (sounds possible for town too?), and I did not want to risk something from that.  Everyone may be scum actually, which makes that distinction weird.

I'm quite happy that you 'established' that I'm fakeclaiming.  Furthermore, said that it was a cross between Violentia, donut, and Mode as the remaining scum due to not having the role solidity (watchers could be scum) or past play to confirm that.  Lastly, why would scum think up of a N0 for fun, and how is it a definite scumtell?  It seems more WIFOM-ey than a scum tell, after all.

---

Alright,  thinking about it, donut's role seems to be more suited for town than scum (sounds strange for scum anyway, they would protect no one other than their scum-mates anyway.  But it still is possible, and I'm not very happy about his play sans role, what with parroting following other people's points regarding me on D2, the whole supposed defending and WIFOM on D2, and the relatively bad D2 (voting me for 'lining up lynches'?).  Even his latest vote on me is not exactly comprehensively given, what about accusing Mode on the sole basis as me being his scumpartner.  But on role alone, and perhaps the putting of the secret vote somewhere else on D2, other people are worthy of consideration as well. 

Purvis has kept up solid activity throughout the game and is the main instigator of many cases like the donut one, which do utilize plenty of original thought and active scumhunting (as opposed to donut's passive, defensively-oritented scumhunting).  I would think that one needs actual reasons to implicate him rather than the mere thought that he could be scum as well.  Scum could have a rolecop as well, however, but I think his play is great enough to discount that chance of him being scum.

Violentia is one of those horrible enigmas which one cannot make anything out of, which is why I suggested to lynch her D2.  I'll go for noobtown, but I'm still quite wary.

GODrake is most definitely town.

Mode, I have not looked at very much at all during the game (as did anyone until D3, I would like to point out), but while her presence has been strong for the majority of D1, with that questioning of donut which was pretty good, she kind of disappeared off the map on D2 and D3, with not a case I remember of (coasting behind the lurkwagons on D2 without much reasoning, going through motions of role madness on D3).  While at the very least donut did put up solid activity and rhetoric about how he wasn't scum on D2, and participated in calling me out (rightfully) on my claim, Mode did not do anything.  Really seems to me that Mode is coasting by the game, role-madness or not, not in the Violentia way but the scummy way.  She needs some posting on who is scum and why.

I wasn't able to due to real life reasons.  I could only be online once a day then, and by the time the mod sent me the results, I was not able to use them since day already started.  As for the pastry role, it's a role, I suppose.  The main thing is that I was able to copy it.

I clarified that my drawing thing was an item and not a role.  Other than the neighbour thing, I'm not sure what you mean, if Mode's original item was a watch.  Could you explain?  If you mean that we targeted the same people on N2 (e.g you), I would like to point out that Drake targeted you too.  It's sheer coincidence, since my role was non-functional the way my activity was.

In the meantime, I'm curious about your One-Shot Lynchstopper thing Purvis. Do you have to choose the person in advance before a certain point of the day, or do you lose the opportunity if they get hammered, or what?
Title: Re: MotK Psycho Plot Mafia ~ Day 4 ~ Pseudo-MyLo!
Post by: Kiva-la on October 21, 2010, 04:47:29 AM
I'm supposed to choose them "late in the day", but I can actually activate the power after the lynch if I'm quick enough, too. I tried to pull it out as early as I did today because with both you and Valentia slapping down votes on me with little to no debatable backing I wasn't inclined to wait around for one or two more people to come waltzing in and do the same thing. We've had two premature hammers in the three days, so I think my jumpiness is somewhat justified. I honestly don't know what would happen upon successful use; the next-closest person might get lynched instead, I guess, but it's more likely that there would just be no lynch that day.

It is also heavily suggested I can submit more than one person to be made unlynchable, but with the way my self-"protect" fizzled it wouldn't surprise me if I tried that and got "NOPE ONLY ONE" in response.

Since I can't use it to protect myself I find it highly unlikely I'll use it at all, as none of the people I wouldn't want to see lynched are under any sort of fire.

(Totally not breaking any image rules, yeahhhhh!)

Humour me, Chentlemen!

Donut is town.
Drake is town.
Mode is town.
Purvis is town.
Slaves is unconfirmed.
Valentia is scum.

I know this because I can establish an alibi for the first four people I listed!

On night one, I used my invisibility cloak to follow Purvis.
I saw that Purvis used ##Ask on Sana! Purvis has confirmed this!
Given that Sana was alive the following day, that he did not seem to be impaired in any visible way, and that Purvis did not use a nightkill, Purvis is town!

On night two, I used my invisibility cloak to follow Kuruminut.
I saw that Donut used ##Pastry on Purvis, but it failed! Donut has confirmed this!
Given Donut's power, record of town action (blah blah logic applied to Purvis, you get the idea), Donut is town!

Drake's lynch and the subsequent destruction of ImposterSerela give Drake an alibi! Drake is town!

I can account for myself, and I can account for why there were NO DEATHS yesterday!

Mode used her roleblock gun to roleblock Valentia! The following morning, nobody was found dead! This is because Valentia attempted to use her kill power and failed because of the roleblock!


(http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/8503/saveusbernkastel4651548.jpg)

"Wait! On its own, this doesn't verify that Valentia is scum! Anyone can still be the culprit! Ahhh! It's useless, it's all useless!"

You're right, Battler-kun! On its own, this doesn't implicate Valentia. Scum could have simply withheld a kill to cause confusion. This doesn't clear Slaves, either - let's address this last point first!


The mason pair is unable to verify the town status of eachother.
Mode, one of the pair, possesses the roleblock gun.
We know that this item exists because it was successfully used on Donut on Night 2, and we know that it is in Mode's possession because nobody else has counterclaimed the item!
With this, the town can lynch the implicated Valentia and, if she does not flip scum, Mode can roleblock Slaves in the following night!
Whomever is in possession of Mode's old invisibility cloak can confirm that Mode fulfills her action overnight, providing proof to her claim of townness!


"But this isn't enough to implicate Valentia!"

(http://img136.imageshack.us/img136/5618/butdefb1.gif)

Yes it is!

Valentia jumped to help hammer Sana with little prior participation at the end of Day 3 as evidenced in this link! (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg464531.html#msg464531) She did this to help her appearance of being town-aligned! You can compare this to her past history of riding off the labors of other players, even if we are to disregard Refuge in Audacity!

##Vote: Violentia

I have you cornered, witch! You will not escape from meeeeeeeeee!

DIE THE DEATH!
SENTENCED TO DEATH!
GREAT EQUALIZER IS THE DEATH!

...Huh. Well.

I must admit that was not at all what I expected, given what I learned overnight (and then again today).

I claim the cloak of invisibility. (This is why I've danced around the item issue ever since the beginning of yesterday - I didn't want to draw more nasty attention to myself.) Last night, I stalked Slaves. He did not take an action, just as he has claimed. (This is why I did not immediately vote, as others around me were doing - Slaves was still my prime suspect, but I wasn't as sure as I was yesterday.)

I have asked our mod in the interim if scum can choose to forgo their NK. He told me no, scum have to kill every night. As not sending a Night Action-less Scum Slaves out on the kill last night would have been very stupid, and Mode has now claimed to have roleblocked Valentia, I firmly believe Slaves is town. (I was still holding out for the possibility of Mode having roleblocked Slaves, which is why I wanted to delay my claim today.)

##Vote: Valentia

Foot in mouth on this one. I was wrong about Trance, and now I've apparently been wrong about Valentia.
Title: Re: MotK Psycho Plot Mafia ~ Day 4 ~ Pseudo-MyLo!
Post by: Kiva-la on October 21, 2010, 07:27:45 AM
Worth noting: The "can't see night actionless Scum Slaves not going on the kill" point also is based on the idea of four scum. If there are only three scum then he's completely in the clear.

Though I imagine Valentia is that third scum so it wouldn't really matter anyway.

I ran out of time to finish my response, but suffice to say I'm not ready to buy into Mode's theory.  I'll be back this evening to elaborate, hopefully.  (Today's going to be really bad IRL.)
Title: Re: MotK Psycho Plot Mafia ~ Day 4 ~ Pseudo-MyLo!
Post by: Sasword on October 21, 2010, 01:08:05 PM
I'm supposed to choose them "late in the day", but I can actually activate the power after the lynch if I'm quick enough, too. I tried to pull it out as early as I did today because with both you and Valentia slapping down votes on me with little to no debatable backing I wasn't inclined to wait around for one or two more people to come waltzing in and do the same thing. We've had two premature hammers in the three days, so I think my jumpiness is somewhat justified. I honestly don't know what would happen upon successful use; the next-closest person might get lynched instead, I guess, but it's more likely that there would just be no lynch that day.

It is also heavily suggested I can submit more than one person to be made unlynchable, but with the way my self-"protect" fizzled it wouldn't surprise me if I tried that and got "NOPE ONLY ONE" in response.

Since I can't use it to protect myself I find it highly unlikely I'll use it at all, as none of the people I wouldn't want to see lynched are under any sort of fire.

For someone who just commented earlier today they were jumpy about these premature hammers, and being a pseudo-Mylo situation, and you being the Golden Townie, you sure did just put someone at L-2 and eat up what Mode just said, despite in #305 saying that she was your primary suspect.

Hell, you didn't even wait for the rest of the claims, to see if someone else could dispute her claim of roleblocking Val! What's up with that?


Val, please let me request from you that you don't immediately follow along with the theatrics, and wait until everyone has gotten their claims out before jumping on a wagon. We still need a claim from you as to who you used your ability on last night, and a claim from Slabes. And Donut. We've all but confirmed that the bat has been buried, and it's seriously starting to look like a 2 scum situation with the 'Pseudo-Mylo' being due to Donut's pastry and/or other protective abilities that could keep us from dropping down to 2 scum 2 town in the event of a mislynch.
Title: Re: MotK Psycho Plot Mafia ~ Day 4 ~ Pseudo-MyLo!
Post by: Kiva-la on October 21, 2010, 01:21:01 PM
- I said Slaves was my primary suspect, not Mode. Lern2latter.

- I trust Valentia to not lynchrush herself. In addition, there is at least a modicum of a case on her for her to defend against, while there was not with me. Yes, this is an important difference.

- Mode lying about who she roleblocked would be mind-numbingly stupid because there's a very good chance whoever was roleblocked was told they were roleblocked and thus would be able to call her on it immediately.

Funny how you demanded a roleclaim from me really early on today when you were set to lynch me and are now demanding roleclaims from everyone else, including two people extremely likely to be townies in Slaves and Donut (the latter of which has explicitly requested to go later), while you are still sitting on the table as a complete enigma despite having had several chances to claim. What's up with that?
Title: Re: MotK Psycho Plot Mafia ~ Day 4 ~ Pseudo-MyLo!
Post by: OOO on October 21, 2010, 02:05:54 PM
Modes post is interesting, but still... I'm still quite bummed about how there are probably two scum around even though we only mislynched once and even though scum did not NK anyone last night.  Instincts tell me however, that there might be something else involved... perhaps a one-shot vig survivor or something of some sort that someone is hiding ... The vigbat is probably not around if there are two scum due to it being a psuedo-MyLo. 

I itemclaim my Sock Stealer, which grants me the ability to forceaim anyone's night actions unto someone else one night without ever knowing what that night action was in the first place and without knowing who was targeted originally by that ability.  I decided not use it last night as investigative and protective roles could be screwed up and stuff like that, and also, I did not know whether the vigbat was with someone.  Given the situation now, I think that decision was good.

As for deciding to claim after Mode, I did not want to give him the fancy idea of throwing the roleblock to me in his claim (since I did nothing) on the chance that he was scum and that there was someone investigating me (e.g Purvis), to maintain my innocence.  But on hindsight, this seems kind of stupid, since a scum roleblocker has every interest to use his ability anyway, and as Purvis said, everyone else (who presumably can make night actions) can tell if they have been role-blocked or not.  Oh well..

---

Mode's reasoning seems fair enough for me to believe it.  If no one else is targeted for an NK, then Valentia is most definitely scum, since scum have to kill... Valentia's conduct the entire game hasn't been stellar either, with her giving up at D2 and stuff like that, though she improved on D3 and beyond, and I'm quite alright with lynching her too.  Not going to vote before listening to what she has to say, but okay.

##Unvote

- asdfafds former vs latter. Sorry.

- Like I said, I was going to be posting the subsequent writeup as to why I suspected you and wanted to get it out on the table for now, but a realization cut that short.

- No comment for now.

Yeah, I apologize about that one. I trust Donut's towniness and i'm fine with going before him first, but it's important that the results of the night actions come out before I bite. The case isn't as slam-dunk as Mode seems to think and there are some glaring problems with the case, since for one the NK for last night could have been protected Donut.

And I haven't claimed yet because its a reeeeeeeeeeeally sketchy situation, Purv. It's important that I don't give scum information about this role. I guarantee that my reasoning for wanting to go after everyone will be made clear once I get the chance to make my case.

Post by: Kiva-la on October 21, 2010, 06:11:58 PM
It better be something good, then, because that sort of double standard makes me unhappy, especially with how hard you've been pushing other people to claim. Really I would have rather you claimed before Slaves as well as Donut because I trust them more than you right now, but what's done with Slaves is done so whatever.

Also, as I forgot to mention it at the time, I'm not worried about a Valentia lynch rush because, at worst, there are two scum between Valentia, Mode and yourself, which means L-2 is not a threat when it's on Valentia and Mode is one of the votes. I would pull my vote back if I thought you/Donut was a viable scum team, but I really don't.

No really, I'm actually making a votecount here for once.

Hoboverlord Purvis (1): GODrake, Violentia
Slabes (1): Kuruminut
Easy Modo (0): Slabes
Violentia (2): Easy Modo, HoboverlordPurvis

Not Voting: GODrake, Slabes

With 6 alive, it takes 4 to lynch. Violentia is at L-2.
There are somewhere around 100 hours left in the day.

Additionally, with the game slowly edging towards a conclusion, now would be a good time to PM player guesses to the mods (NeoSerela and I).  Doing so will win you cool points for at least trying, regardless of whether you are in the game or not. Though considering the amount of night actions I've received, I wouldn't be surprised if you people have already PMed something like that to Serela but not me. ;_;

Post by: Ouja on October 22, 2010, 02:00:40 AM
The mason pair is unable to verify the town status of eachother.
Mode, one of the pair, possesses the roleblock gun.
We know that this item exists because it was successfully used on Donut on Night 2, and we know that it is in Mode's possession because nobody else has counterclaimed the item!
With this, the town can lynch the implicated Valentia and, if she does not flip scum, Mode can roleblock Slaves in the following night!
Whomever is in possession of Mode's old invisibility cloak can confirm that Mode fulfills her action overnight, providing proof to her claim of townness!
Since Donut, Drake, and Valentia have not claimed yet there still exists no guarantee that Mode targeted Valentia in particular last night!
There IS precedent for Mafia Roleblockers/Doctors fabricating blocked kills in spite of being compelled to kill!  (Gensokyo Workers' Union Mafia)  It is entirely possible for a sequence MODE BLOCKS SLAVES -> SLAVES ATTEMPTS TO KILL MODE to have occurred if they are scumpartners!
Slaves' claim to have not targeted anyone last Night, corroborated by Purvis, validates this theory! As Sock Stealer is a role associated with Pesco in particular and Pescohax didn't flip with it before any item swaps occurred,
and considering Slaves conveniently did not use his item  means there is no way to validate the verity of his claim, I find his claim to be dubious!
The major hitch in this logic is that Mode claimed that I took an action but was blocked, whereas Purvis said that no action was taken at all!  Of note is that Mode claimed my action after I did, whereas Purvis claimed before Slaves!  Purvis, clarification on the double!
Last, while Mode still holds the Roleblock gun Mode-one-of-two-scum can ensure that all kills go through N4 (i.e. by blocking me) and bring about the end of the game before getting held accountable!  The previous statement is not Red Truth only because it is possible for Slaves to redirect Mode and can be expected to do so if somehow they have differing alignments and both are alive at the end of the day.  The chance of this happening is fairly small but worth mentioning.

With that said, we are in MyLo. If there is only one scum left then there must be a way of three people dying overnight!
One way is the night-kill. One way is through me being nibbled to death (i.e. overtargeted). The third way is the vigbat, which may also serve to explain how there were two deaths N1! Therefore it is possible for there to be only one scum left.
Valentia is most likely to have the vigbat because she claimed not to get an item from the Mystery Bomb, when it seems clear that the bomb was a mass item-shuffle and that she allegedly received the Item Identifier from the N2 swap!
Quote
I never had the vig vote, the only items ive had are the bat, the death resistance and the item identifier which i have today on D3

the results of the mystery bomb did not shine down on me as i didnt recieve any kind of item from it.
Valentia has not claimed an Item Identifier result from last Night!  Why not?

However, the nature of the vigbat begs the question of why it hasn't been used if it is still in the game!
There are no further item switchers in the game, so its location should be positively identifiable if it is still in the game!
If the vigbat is not in the game, then there is no way for the one-scum theory to be true!


tl;dr
These claims AREN'T LINING UP ANYWHERE.

Also, if I screwed up rules of truth (i.e. conditionals) sue me now.

In related news Valentia isn't voting the person who obviously presented a contradiction/frame on her if she's town.  >___>
Title: Re: MotK Psycho Plot Mafia ~ Day 4 ~ Pseudo-MyLo!
Post by: Ouja on October 22, 2010, 02:13:58 AM
Oh right, obviousness time.

Mode claims to have blocked Valentia.
Valentia claims to have targeted someone successfully, and has had her claim corroborated by Purvis.

This contradiction COULD be resolved by Slaves' claimed item, but Purvis has also validated that Slaves did not take a successful action last night, therefore it's not possible for Mode to have been redirected unless Slaves and Purvis are scum!

But! There was no kill last night! Scum are compelled to kill! Therefore under the above scenario the kill was either blocked, doctored, or stopped somehow!
Slaves, redirecting Mode, would not redirect the roleblock to his scumpartner or himself!
My night action claim is as follows:  I Pastried Drake last night and nobody came to visit! Therefore Pastry did not stop a kill!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but someone said they had one-shot bulletproof as an item, did they not?  If it's still in the game, it needs to be claimed ASAP.
If all of those are ruled out, Slaves and Purvis are not the scumteam! Thus the contradiction stands, and one of Mode and Valentia is scum!

Mode claimed you were roleblocked on the night she watched you, IE N2, not the prior night. So Purvis can't say if any action was taken at all since he didn't have the invisibility cloak back then; this was just my clearing your alibi for prior nights.

So, if we take this into consideration:

1. Purvis can confirm Slaves did not redirect anyone.
2. Nobody is rasping out vote-only commands, so death-resistant persons have not been harmed.
3. With scum being required to kill and no kill forthcoming, my roleblock on Valentia in these lights is successful, and it seems we have further evidence.

Clarification.
On D3 I claimed that I was blocked N2.  Then you claimed that I was blocked N2.
On D4 Purvis claimed Slaves took no action N3.  Then Purvis claimed that he took no action N3.

You would also be able to answer whether Purvis would know if his target was blocked or merely didn't take any action.

Alright. It's still a while until I'm actually back to make that substantial post, but skimming through the last posts a couple things came to mind I thought I'd share.

1. The vigbat nor the doublevote can be used in mylo/lylo situations, which I found out when asking for clarifications about using the vig item.

2. I honestly am having a hard time figuring out how this can be mylo/lylo right now. Four-scum team makes no sense, since we'd have been in lylo on D3. It could have something to do with what Donut mentioned about the nibbles killing him. But even with three town deaths assuming one scum, that still would leave us in Lylo D5. Hmmm.

I'm really itching to share all of what I know, but I think it'd be best to wait until I'm actually sitting down at a computer later.

I addressed this before; it's not hard to take a shot in the dark and say that Hoboverlord is the role name of, you know, Hoboverlord Purvis.

You, myself, or Slaves is scum. We could have an unknown scum X in this sealed room, too, but given the evidence I still think the safest lynch is you.

Speculating on this, though, just edges into meta, so I guess it's up to everyone else to decide on.

I was told I stalked Slaves and "nothing happened". I was not told that Slaves tried to do something and was stopped.

There's also nothing in the item PM to suggest I would be told if the action was stopped or not. Only that I would know who they target and what the action name is.

Valentia, you STILL haven't claimed an Item Identifier result.

This is very tricky... As Drake said, the vigbat and doublevote could not possibly be used to kill town, and if there were two scum, it would have been a LyLO yesterday... 

Regarding the Mode/Valentia thing, it might be possible for her to know Purvis' Role if she used her copafeel on Purvis instead of wrathie as she claimed on N2.  If she NK'ed wrathie it would be a rather safe thing to do to keep that information on Purvis for something useful like now (if she were tracked on N2, she would have been implicated anyway).  Thus I am not so sure that Mode is definitely lying yet.  Personally, I drift more toward Violentia.

One theory I think is that there could be a third party survivor in our midst with a one-shot nightvig (rolled into one role) of some sort.  Assuming that we do lynch and bring the numbers down to 5, a one-shot nightvig could, coupled with a successful scum NK, bring us down to 3 people with only one townie left (if my theory of there being one survivor and one scum) being correct, resulting in town unable to win the game.  It depends on the rules; but given such role madness, I would be surprised if there wasn't a third party somewhere within our midst.  This really seems like the only way all this could happen.  But everyone's so role-confirmed that it seems rather unlikely for any of this to happen.  Purvis would be the most likely one given that his role was not shown, but Violentia confirmed his one-shot lynchstopper and had no business to if it was not true...  Argh, gives me a headache.

Alright. Decided I should make this post before bed instead of waiting until tomorrow morning/afternoon, but I also don't want to spend multiple hours writing this up. asdfasdfaf too late, ah well.


1. The item I received after the mystery bomb were Magical Drawing Utensils. They came with a picture of Donut already drawn, which gave me the ability to ##Pastry someone last night. That supports Slaves claim back in #270 about his item and having drawn Donut N2. To clarify what the item does, it copies a player's role ability.

2. My night actions for N3 were to ##Pastry Donut and ##Draw Purvis. I received one nibble last night which means SOMEONE targeted Donut and isn't fessing up.

3. My result of the ##Draw was exactly as Purvis said, the 'Governor' role that can stop a lynch from happening. This supports both Val and Purvis's statements.


Why did I ##Pastry Donut despite the death proof? I had the sinking feeling that as a result of my actions from D3 that I would be the primary lynch target. I also had the feeling that Donut might ##Pastry me instead of Purvis, so I chose to protect him in turn in case Donut got roleblocked last night.


So why do you suspect Purvis anyway?

First i'll start with how I arrived at Purvis to begin with. Six people left, and I was assuming five townies and one scum at the time. I was sure Donut was town, and was feeling pretty good about Val being apathetic/new-Town mainly due to having the bat N1 and not using it. I was thinking that Eve was a self-kill or something not related to the vigbat  related to her blue alignment. And as Purv said in an earlier post, Eve would have been a stupid target anyway and they probably would have killed Kilga sooner than D2 if they had the chance.

I also thought Mode was probably not lying about her and Slabes being Masons (made perfect sense given their characters and all), but admittedly I thought the whole unconfirmed bit was a miscommunication and they were likely Town partners. Admittedly, I thought the whole unconfirmed bit about their roles could have just been a miscommunication of some kind or inconsistency in the mod pms. I had the magical drawing utensils at the time with a drawing of Donut, so that confirmed Slabes as telling the truth for me as well.


So, that left you, Purvis. And looking over the game history over N3 I couldn't find anything that cleared you as Town. Yes, you've participated a lot and have made some well-thought out posts, but that alone doesn't clear you in my eyes. You were holding back your role, and I noted that not once this entire game did anyone give you a good lookover. Donut seemed to decide you were definitely Town on D1, and the question of your alignment was never brought up again.

What did I find that raised red flags out of you? The biggest was your actions on D1. Post #65 (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg457799.html#msg457799) and post #69, you pressure Mode and chastise Pesco for not reading the mod's post saying multiple newbies, and say that 'this is not the sign of a person who reads'. Your next post in #91 (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg458668.html#msg458668) comes after serious bandwagons have formed on Pesco and Kilga. Look at post 65. Now at post 91. Now back to me. Purvis says that he's jumping onto Pesco's wagon "for all the reason I stated prior,", as if you suspected him all along. However, the ONLY comment you made about him prior was that he was not someone who reads, and that he needed to step up his game. I find this a scummy exaggeration.

D2, you express a general discontent towards the idea of TranceScum in both #116 and ]#173 (http://[url=http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg461011.html#msg461011), with the latter post standing out as being especially wishywashy. And on D3 after I dropped the bombshell, you hung back until it was pretty clear that Trance dug his own grave. Val's premature hammer was annoying, but I realized it was only possible because both my and your vote were on Trance. Your reasoning for eventually slapping your vote down in #277 (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg464160.html#msg464160) doesn't make sense to me. "Wanted to get my vote on Trance in the event that someone is being a sneaky scum and LYING about not having the bat, because I expect Drake and myself to be the top two scum vig candidates." How would either of us getting vigged had made a difference in the outcome, anyway?


So... yeah, that's my piece. I'm still very suspicious of Purvis (and also the idea of his role seems to be inherently Anti-Town as far as I can see). However, I still don't know what to make of the current situation, especially the Psuedo-Mylo suggesting less than five townies and what the actions from N3 and claims from today are suggesting. Let me compile what we have so far into an easy to read list.

- Val knows Purv's rolename, which makes it likely she's telling the truth about her target last night.
- Mode's claim that she roleblocked Val is sketchy given this knowledge.
- I ##Pastried Donut and got one nibble. Someone targeted Donut last night.

If Mode is telling the truth and roleblocked Val, then Val is lying about having done her action last night, which would imply scum. But there's evidence suggesting she did indeed rolecop Purvis. If Mode is lying and instead tried to roleblock Donut and NK me or someone else, then it's odd that there is only one nibble between the two of us. Unless of course a roleblock + kill by the same person would only result in a single nibble, which is a possibility.


And before it's brought up, yes I checked if ##Pastry would stop roleblocks, and I got a confirmation that it would.

Post by: OOO on October 22, 2010, 11:20:37 AM
Alright, that sort of discounts the possibility of a third-party vig or something like that.

The thing about the Purvis case is that if he was scum, I would see no reason for him to out  or even target me at all today; it dramatically reduces the chance of him surviving; with all the role flying about and people getting role-confirmed left and right.  His actions throughout the game seem to be town, after being the prime mover of several coherent cases, and thus I'm not really buying into lynching him today.

I believe we must either lynch Mode or Valentia today, since there is definitely scum (or at least a third party) between the two given that one of them is lying.  Whatever is happening, I think lynching scum would definitely win the game for us, I suppose, since there is probably only one left.

Again, Valentia claims that she rolecopped Purvis last night and that Mode is lying but in fact, this isn't really airtight.  Given that Violentia stole the role of Trance the first night she could have copped Purvis on N1.  There is nothing saying that she could not cop anyone on N1, and given that when pressed by Mode, she could have simply picked the name of a person she copped on N1 and give the role name... It's quite plausible that this happened.  Furthermore, why would Violentia target wrathie, the most obvious townie in the game at that point, if he were town?  That suspicion wasn't telegraphed anywhere.

Also, Mode would have likely roleblocked either donut or Drake if she were scum, but she roleblocked Violentia, which was perfectly understandable.  And with the pastry having been nibbled on only once, I doubt that she did so (it seems more likely that donut would have two nibbles in that case).  Thus, I would prefer going along with the Valentia case.

Long TMIpost coming tonight, hopefully.  I'm trying to deduce what circumstances would lead to a disappearing Roleblock AND a disappearing kill in light of knowing that I was targeted by an unclaimed action last night.

One thing that would help me get there - which any of you can answer, hopefully - is knowing whether people can use multiple actions at once overnight.  For instance, would it be possible for Valentia to use Item Identifier and whatever her claimed action was at the same time?  I have a similar question about the scumkill (whether a given scummerson can kill and perform other actions at night) but I think the mod has to answer that.

I think... yeah, every night i've used more than one action. :derp: N1 and N2 I ##powerswitched and ##disabled, and N3 I used ##draw and ##pastry. Of course, it's still possible that as a stipulation of scum's NK action that they can't use anything else, but i'm inclined to think that isn't restricted.

The thing about the Purvis case is that if he was scum, I would see no reason for him to out  or even target me at all today; it dramatically reduces the chance of him surviving; with all the role flying about and people getting role-confirmed left and right.  His actions throughout the game seem to be town, after being the prime mover of several coherent cases, and thus I'm not really buying into lynching him today.

The first part of this is WIFOM (Because I don't see what it is about targeting you that makes it so unlikely he would have survived.) Also, he hasn't been the 'prime mover' of any cases on scum, and he's shown some wishywashy behavior (esp. in the post I pointed out D2). Again, i'm just not seeing the logic where a smart or active player cannot possibly be scum.

I do agree that the contradiction between Mode and Val's claims is pretty damning for one of them.Hopefully I hit upon some insight when I get out of work or something.

However, the ONLY comment you made about him prior was that he was not someone who reads, and that he needed to step up his game. I find this a scummy exaggeration.

I provided several reasons in #65 as to why Pesco needed to "step his game up". I pointed out (via flavor) that he was not reading the topic, he unvoted without revoting, and that he let up a pressure vote without actually getting a response from the person it was on. Then, in #91, I tacked on the additional reason of providing a crap defense to Kilga's accusation, which was the real turning point for me moving my vote to him (note how my vote had not been on Pesco before, even though I did say in #91 that I probably should have been there to begin with). Given all these I am wondering why you're trying to paint my Pesco vote so terribly when several more reasons for it than the ones you listed are readily available.

D2, you express a general discontent towards the idea of TranceScum in both #116 and [rl=http://]#173 (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg461011.html#msg461011), with the latter post standing out as being especially wishywashy. And on D3 after I dropped the bombshell, you hung back until it was pretty clear that Trance dug his own grave. Val's premature hammer was annoying, but I realized it was only possible because both my and your vote were on Trance. Your reasoning for eventually slapping your vote down in #277 (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg464160.html#msg464160) doesn't make sense to me. "Wanted to get my vote on Trance in the event that someone is being a sneaky scum and LYING about not having the bat, because I expect Drake and myself to be the top two scum vig candidates." How would either of us getting vigged had made a difference in the outcome, anyway?

Best I can say to being wrong on Trance is "oops". I didn't think he was more likely to be scum than Slaves at that point. As for getting vigged making a difference, I apparently misremembered that Kilga's vote had been removed after his death - I thought it had stuck there for the rest of the day for some reason. That does make my gesture a useless one, since I wanted my vote stuck to Trance in the even I got batted. Chalk this up to misremembering or possibly plain misreading, which, yeah, I also have no real defense for.

I'm still very suspicious of Purvis (and also the idea of his role seems to be inherently Anti-Town as far as I can see).

While it has appeared on the scum side in the past, in my experience, Governor is traditionally a town role, so I don't see how this can be held against me in anything more than a null tell capacity. And while we're on the subject of roles, precedent has been set for unconfirmed masons - they've been used before, at this site and others (sometimes called Neighbors, sometimes actually called Masons). You can't just throw it out due to assuming people didn't read their PMs properly.

I will grant the Trance thing and the misremembering thing, but the way you're trying to paint both my Pesco vote and my role comes off as you really trying to push whatever you can think of instead of what's actually scummy.

The first part of this is WIFOM (Because I don't see what it is about targeting you that makes it so unlikely he would have survived.)

It effectively eliminates Slaves from the scum pool, which both narrows down everyone else's options and kills the major case I would have had coming into today. Neither of these would be good for scum me.

if i did copafeel at purvis instead of wrathie why didnt i roleclaim purvis? who wasnt roleclaimed as of yet. we all knew the role of wrathie after he had died. so there wasnt a point of me revealing my cop a feel results past i used it on wrathie.

"but wait that doesnt prove your not lying!"

Why waste a perfectly good copafeel on a dead man to begin with? if im scum i would know he would have died that night and would have used it on purvis or someone else that night. not wrathie.

the simple tl:dr version i didnt know wrathie was going to die that night! so i used my copafeel on him knowing i would get results! but sadly he ended up dead the next morning

Drake, Kuri, purvis, and I used a role last night. and slabes did nothing at all without fail.
that only leaves the possiblitiy that he is either A) lying, or B) someone else is lying.

Everyone BUT modo used a role last night, according to modo himself. he roleblocked me, but everyones roles went without a hitch including my own. so nobody was blocked last night.

BUT the someone targeted donut last night, and the ##pastry blocked the gun! so either modo didnt use it or he was blocked.

Post by: Ouja on October 22, 2010, 10:32:41 PM
I think I can conclude that IF Mode blocked Valentia's kill then the only feasible scumteam is Valentia+Purvis.  This is, however, only possible if Purvis and Valentia are lying about the HoboGovernor and Purvis targeted me with his real action.  Standing to counter that, I remember someone revealing that Purvis' action command is "Ask", which doesn't seem like a harmful ability (and does sound Governorish).

Therefore it seems unlikely that Mode blocked a kill made by Valentia.  Therefore Drake blocked the kill.  The question is then where the Roleblock went.  The feasible choices are
*Mode blocked Slaves (Mode is lying, but why Slaves?)
*Mode blocked Valentia (Valentia is lying, BUT Purvis confirmed Valentia's claim!)
*Mode blocked no one (Mode is lying)

So yeah, Mode or Valentia today.  This points to Mode, but Valentia feels so much better as a lynch, especially after helping Trance self-hammer.

Cut by Valentia - Items are day use now? :/
Even so that would have been much better spent on Slaves. That result doesn't really tell us anything because Mode already proved she had the roleblock gun.  -_-

Mysterybomb! i got the item identifer [and no PM to confrim it *cough mod cough*]

Exactly.  And then you would have every reason as mafia to lie about who you copped, so that you have an out to use in case something happens the next night, that's my theory.

But then again, why didn't you use your rolecop ability on N1?  It could have been that you used it on N1 to cop Purvis without telling us.

Not really.  As I said, Valentia could have lied about who he copped the previous nights, as well as copped Purvis on N1.

N1 I drew Kilgajesus, but I was blocked (or the drawing did not work).  I'm not sure if this was due to Kilga's role or a roleblock

I don't know if Pastry can block Role Cop.  Presumably it only blocks harmful actions.

If there's only one scum then I'm way overthinking this (and behind discussion).  Mode or Valentia, probably Valentia. Y/N

Donut: You mentioned someone saying my action was #Ask before. It was, back when I had the rolecop device. My item action is now ##Stalk. Item action description doesn't go with inherent power anyway, so ##Ask and my lynchstop wouldn't have gone together regardless.

Drake: You said you ##Pastried and ##Drew last night, right? That's it?

Valentia: Why did you target Wrathie, who look for all the world like a townie, on Night 2 with your Rolecopafeel power? Why not target, well, anyone else? Slaves asked this and I never saw an answer, despite your willingness to expand on other things; you even reiterate your explanation for why you targeted me in your night action summary post, but still refrain from explaining why you targeted Wrathie.

Night Action Summary:

- N1: Used rolecop item to ##Ask: Sana. Result was Planeteer with no helpful description.
- N2: Used rolecop item to ##Ask: Donut. Result was Delicious Pastry with an actual description of his role. Post can be found here (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg463897.html#msg463897). Note that I pointed out Donut got his name role wrong, if anyone starts entertaining the idea that I was lying about that item. (Also note that Mode confirmed my ##Ask.)
- D3: Rolecop item switched for Cloak item by Mystery Bomb.
- N3: Used cloak item to ##Stalk: Slaves. Was told "nothing happened".
- I have not used my one-shot lynchstop yet.

Unaccounted night action on Donut: Idle speculation suggests it was the NK attempt, which means no one is going to fess up to it. Donut was certainly a worthy target at that point, so I wouldn't be surprised.

@Donut

I've already mentioned this (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg467059.html#msg467059) once before, but yes, I confirmed with a mod that ##Pastry DOES block a roleblock.


And as for Val over Mode... Actually... I might have to agree with you. I honestly think that Val is lying now, after having just looked at something. Hooray mid-post breakthroughs.

Hey, we're trying to figure out who targeted Donut last night, right? Well, here is #333 and #335.

Anyway to defend myself vs modo.

One biiiiiiiiiiiiig contraindication in your master plan to pin the scum on me

My Drag commando worked last night i ##copafeel on Kuri who roleclaimed as governor which i really didnt feel like re-stating since he said it once already

So if i was Roleblocked last night how did i copafeel ;3

UGHHH i just royally fucked myself with that, i meant purvis @_@ jeez i suck at names

Sucking at names, or revealing her true target? Hence the "royally fucked myself with that" part? :derp: Note this was well before I came out with the information that I ##Pastried Donut and got a nibble.

And before someone says to me 'What if you did this just to frame Val for her slipup!", the hint I dropped earlier on for my N3 action:

Yeah, I apologize about that one. I trust Donut's towniness and i'm fine with going before him first, but it's important that the results of the night actions come out before I bite. The case isn't as slam-dunk as Mode seems to think and there are some glaring problems with the case, since for one the NK for last night could have been protected Donut.

And I haven't claimed yet because its a reeeeeeeeeeeally sketchy situation, Purv. It's important that I don't give scum information about this role. I guarantee that my reasoning for wanting to go after everyone will be made clear once I get the chance to make my case.

(I was actually worried that my phrasing was awkward to the point that someone would notice, but I think I masked it well enough. :V )



This is a big screw up in my eyes, and i'm having a major hard time believing that Val "accidentally" said Kuri instead of Purv. And while at first I thought the whole Governor claim made it likely she was telling the truth about her N3 action, I didn't realize 'Governor' was the common name for the role until now (yay Mafia noob up in here). And looking back, I realize she never knew the role name after all, claiming it to be "Hoboverlord" in #338 (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg466776.html#msg466776)!


I think that's pretty damning right there, but the one big mystery that still lies unanswered is, what's the deal with Mode's claim? If Val is the last scum and Mode is telling the truth, then assuming everyone else is being truth there should have been no nibble last night. And there HAS to be less than 5 townies given Pseudo-mylo, I just can't think of a way otherwise.

Why on earth would i target Kuri, shes walking around with the death stopper in her palms. :/.

that would just mean it would take 2 days to kill donut off instead of 1 which would make more work for the scum anyway, seems like a waste if you ask me!

Drake: Hoboverlord is the name of my role, and I confirmed as such in my next post after Valentia's claim. What are you trying to get at there?

The potential Freudian slip is very interested, though, I will grant that. It doesn't help Valentia that her investigations have yet to give the public something they didn't already know (outside of the Hoboverlord thing).

Also, since you have posted your action history but made zero effort to acknowledge my question, I'll ask again, because now I'm really curious. All you did last night were the two actions you've claimed?

Valentia: Stop dodging the question. Why did you target Wrathie Night 2?

This is keeping me awake.

*There's one Mafioso left (all the following depends on this)
*There is an unaccounted-for action taken on me
*Only scum would not account for actions
*If the lone Mafioso (i.e. Valentia) was Roleblocked last night, there should be no unaccounted-for actions
*Therefore the lone Mafioso was not Roleblocked
*Therefore Valentia has an alibi
*Slaves has an alibi via Purvis
*Drake could have killed AND protected me after bussing his partner yesterday, except that's kind of ludicrous
*Donut could have killed AND protected Drake, except no (deliberately stopping the kill seems unlikely with only one scum left)
*Purvis claimed a clearly disadvantageous-to-scum result on Slaves, but otherwise could have done it
*Mode as scum could have still Roleblocked Valentia and killed someone else, so why no Roleblock? (esp. since Valentia just confirmed that Mode has the Roleblock gun)
**The protect on me via Drake was in all probability completely unexpected.  Seeing no kill, why would Mode choose to lie about blocking someone who could clearly counterclaim in order to explain it away?
***Aside from Valentia being lynchbait in MyLo, which is a very good reason.
****But really where did that Roleblock go? bearing in mind that claiming a blocked kill wasn't part of the original plan
*****It could have landed on Slaves, therefore not doing anything and not being detected by Purvis.
******I can't actually tell if Mode knew ahead of time if Slaves didn't do anything N3.  Purvis said he saw something to that effect but I don't see it.  If Mode didn't know that Slaves was going to claim to have not done anything, claiming truthfully to have blocked Slaves would have been what happened.
*****It could have been not used at all, but WHY?
******To avoid confirming Townies.
*******Is that really a sufficient reason to not block someone when everyone knows you have the roleblock gun?
********Iunno, probably not

Cut by Drake saying something completely different.

I've already mentioned this once before, but yes, I confirmed with a mod that ##Pastry DOES block a roleblock.
I thought  I was talking about a Role Cop.

I agree that if we weren't looking at claims, I would lynch Valentia almost entirely over pushing Trance to be able to selfhammer yesterday.  But the block question is still there, unless Valentia has some kind of Untargetable item.

I wanted to know his role of course, on day 2 nobodys role was known. i simply was curious is all. on day 3 is when the roles started getting out. but sadly wrathie had died. so i had to reason to role reveal him out of the blue and tell everyone of my night action. curosity does get you killed i suppose

Wait, I'm still riding the short bus about this.

Now that it has been cleared up that I don't necessarily know how many times someone has targeted my Pastry target, it's entirely possible that both the kill and the block were meant for me.  That would solve BOTH mysteries very cleanly.  (Clarification is being sought here.)

This would also explain why Valentia was "roleblocked".  A Roleblock against me couldn't be claimed because someone was going to step forward and say they saved me, and the block would have looked very bad (especially against someone who was rapidly becoming seen as town and a Doctor-type and was already confirmed as not making a kill previously).  Valentia would be the easiest target for obvious reasons.  Slaves was likely not chosen for the block because he had already claimed to have lost the item his ability relied on, and Slaves didn't claim having a new item/ability.

While I'm going to ask for clarification here that's the only scenario I can see where all of the contradictions are resolved.

Valentia: So you used your power for a personal curiosity instead of in a pro-town capacity by using it on someone you found suspicious?

How does it matter who has the power swap role, and how did you know that it was a role in the first place and not an item?  You should have been amassing information on those more suspicious ones who were not likely to be NK'ed; it would have been more valuable today.

Quote
Well, um, Yes i did

>_>

Also, why didn't you use the item identifier on D3?  You really had nothing to lose by using it, and with all your weird uses and non-uses of your role and item, it really feels quite sketchy.

@donut:

If Mode is scum.... yes, that seems like the most likely scenario, I think.  If we could get mod clarification on whether a roleblock + NK would only take one bite, it would be nice... but the problem is that if Purvis got 3 bites on N1 from the same person, I think two actions might constitute two bites.  Could certainly see the reason behind such an action though.

I figured posting my action history *would* be answering your question, but to answer your question clearly: The only two things I did on N3 are ##Pastry Donut and ##Draw you.


Drake: Hoboverlord is the name of my role, and I confirmed as such in my next post after Valentia's claim. What are you trying to get at there?

The potential Freudian slip is very interested, though, I will grant that. It doesn't help Valentia that her investigations have yet to give the public something they didn't already know (outside of the Hoboverlord thing).

asfasdfasdf how did I miss that

The Magical Drawing Utensils never gave me a name for your ability outside of Governor and I remember thinking the name Val gave for it, 'Hoboverlord' fishy at first since that was never mentioned to me. Also, I misremembered you confirming Val's claim as coming *before* she said that and not after.

Hell, maybe it was just a coincidence after all, but damned if I didn't think that was a huge slip. @_@;

@Donut: I think we have to operate until the very real possibility of there being more than one Anti-Town role at this point. Like I said before, highly doubtful there are two scum, but there very well could be 1 scum and 1 third party with some sort of zaniness to them.

And ASDFSDFDS I'm going to have to agree with you wholeheartedly about Mode now. I don't know how I didn't seriously consider her using both roleblock and lynch on you. I kept thinking "If Mode were scum she would have obviously tried to block Donut and lynch me, but only Donut got nibbled!". Also was thinking nibbles = number of abilities stopped, but if that might not be the case then this suddenly makes a whole lot of sense.

Pseudo-Mylo with only one scum notwithstanding (and I swear to god if one of you is the Moriyavatar I will seriously flip my shit) , everything else makes sense if you assume roleblock + kill on Donut by Mode. She had to roleblock Donut to succeed because of Death Resistant, but she probably never expected to be blocked. The only thing she could have possibly done at that point, is hope that she could implicate Val and hope no one could support her claim or refute Mode's.

All in all, I think it comes down to this; either the above happened, or Valentia lied about rolecopping wrathie and rolecopped Purvis on N1 or N2.  The thing is that I think that Mode's actions do make sense as town too as well as scum; roleblocking Valentia was quite a valid option if she were town since Val had a decent chance of being scum.  Looking at this alone, it seems like a 50-50 toss up between her being town and scum. 

But Valentia has done rather interesting things that I don't accept as town; e.g rolecopping wrathie for the sake of personal curiosity, not using the item identifier on D3 when it could have really helped town in someway, and supposedly not using the rolecop ability on N1 as well when it could have helped town at no cost.  I don't think all of this could be explained as noobtown; voting Trance to L-1 on D3 I'm okay with, but not participating on D2 at all and dropping a vote for no reason?  Thus, I think I'd rather prefer the alternate explanation to all the events here, that Valentia somehow used her abilities on N1/2 on Purvis and knew his role even now; even considering that he's a newbie, Valentia is my vote for today.  Considering that 3 bites on Purvis came from one person on N1, I think it's likely that only a NK is involved too.

So what happened to the autonomous role steal (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg464195.html#msg464195), then?

I still have it, and it hasn't done anything yet. I still have no idea how it works, as it doesn't explicitly say any triggers either.

and supposedly not using the rolecop ability on N1 as well when it could have helped town at no cost. 

Correction, she had a bat on N1 and she chose not to use it. Or at least chose to use it at night and kill Eve for whatever reason, but I already mentioned why I thought that was unlikely.

I see your reasoning here, but I feel like Valentia being scum would be like throwing Occam's razor to the wind. We can assume that Valentia had the skills to make sure she has never been caught in a lie so far, was smart enough to use the bat N1 instead of D2 like Trance to cover up her kill (yet not smart enough to kill a good Townie instead of someone suspicious), has managed to evade any contradictory claims until now.... or that she's a nubTown that has been playing less than spectacular this game, and everything she says has been true.

EBWOP: "use the bat N1 instead of D2" should be "use the bat during the night instead of during the day"


Now that I think of it, using the vig N1 instead of D1 is a TERRIBLE idea, since that leaves the possibility of getting blocked or tracked.

True, but here (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg464020.html#msg464020) Valentia says that the baseball bat was stolen from her before she could use it, implying that she had the rolecop ability on N1.  E.g

Quote
oh, to clear up me killing N1, the baseball bat was stolen from me before i could use the night kill  so i couldnt have night killed anyone on N1

As for the evading the contradictory claims thing, I find that she did so in a very artless way; e.g not using the item identifier on D3 and using the rolecop on wrathie N2 (or maybe N1).  Perhaps claiming the latter takes a bit of foresight to do, but the others can certainly be attributed to a newbie.  Not many people paid attention to him N3 D3 anyways...

My ability swaps after everyone's abilities have resolved, and they get informed as the next day begins. I can confirm this since I used the action on myself, and I was informed of my results as the day began. Also, practically every night i've submitted my initial choices early, thought about things, then revised them before the night was over. If the switch happened in real-time i'm sure Neo would have said something to me. :V

However, what you quoted is a bit confusing for me, since it seems to imply the otherwise. I don't know what to make of it yet.

Drake: Oh, sorry, I had it in my mind that autonomous meant something else.

Kinda wish you had been clear about it from the get-go but that may just be self-frustrastion talking.

If I had to vote at this point it would probably be for Mode. All the other errors and unhelpfulness aside, Valentia did get the name of my role right, and instead of pursuing the angle Slaves tried to pursue regarding lying about timing she instead tried to discredit the guess directly, saying (or at least heavily implying) that it was "a fair chance" (among other phrasings) Valentia could guess it since it was a part of my name. Thing is, only one of the flipped roles so far has even remotely resembled the player's name, never mind being contained entirely within the name. This seems more a scummy discredit reach than a townie investigation (the Slaves path, again, would be something I consider an example of a townie investigation).

I claim the cloak of invisibility. (This is why I've danced around the item issue ever since the beginning of yesterday - I didn't want to draw more nasty attention to myself.) Last night, I stalked Slaves. He did not take an action, just as he has claimed. (This is why I did not immediately vote, as others around me were doing - Slaves was still my prime suspect, but I wasn't as sure as I was yesterday.)
I cannot find where Slaves said he did not take an action N3.  In retrospect, Slaves said this--
Quote from: Slaves
I did nothing in between N2 and D3, as I said my item changed due to the mystery bomb.
but the bomb went off early D3, so Slaves likely forgot how to speak English again and meant to say N3 and D4.

My fault.

The mod said the RB and the kill would have been one nibble each.  I propose lynching the mod again.
Alternatively, if Drake could ask huh what the same questions ("How many times did I get targeted last night again?" "If the same person targeted my target with two different actions, how many nibbles would I get?") and see if we get a different answer. >_>

Well you did just misrep Drake, edit your post, and (however accidentally) send me an entirely misleading N1 result.  And it would mean we've still lynched scum every day.

Given that I was targeted by only one of the kill and roleblock, we're back to square one-ish.

While I was gone today I thought about the possibility of Mode being blocked, causing the Roleblock to disappear.   This means that one of us one of us is lying about their role (not item) ability.  Slaves is still cleared via Purvis.  I'm cleared via Drake.  Purvis is cleared via Valentia and Drake.  Valentia is cleared by Purvis regardless of when the role cop ability was actually used.  Mode is definitely what she says for what it's worth.  Drake's claims are a giant mess but ultimately he's cleared by Valentia and Trance.

The only other factor I can think of that would produce Pseudo-MyLo given no LyLo yesterday is scumkill+2 delicious pastry vanishes.  So this very well may not be MyLo at all.

One remaining question - one for Drake and Slaves - is clarification on what the Magical Drawing Tools actually do.  Specifically, I don't see a ##command for Purvis's ability given inthread, and what exactly you're told about what each role does is unclear.

If that doesn't produce anything, then I don't think we can determine a liar from the information given (unless someone wants to argue that Mode chose not to Roleblock OR blocked Slaves and then lied about it later).

I'm not sure if we should No Lynch for more information or not, given that we've fully claimed.  If we were to lynch, I would probably go for Valentia and simply assume the Hoboverlord claim was a lucky guess.  Both of Valentia's present abilities do not produce confirmable information, whereas everyone else's does.

My current item's action is ##Stalk, which I believe Mode mentioned on Day 3.

My thinking on today being Lylo or Mylo or Hi-Lo or Shiloh or whatever is the presence of a third party, which is going to be nigh impossible to account for as they could have just about any power, including some bizarre nightkill-unlocked-by-lylo power or something. Whatever it is, I think it's safe to assume someone is lying via omission about what they can do, which...yeah, good luck to us trying to figure out who it is, at least today.

Noobish != scummy. I still feel like it's much less of a stretch to assume Val to just be an erratic noobish player than a scum player.

While I was gone today I thought about the possibility of Mode being blocked, causing the Roleblock to disappear.   This means that one of us one of us is lying about their role (not item) ability. 

Which makes it even less likely to be Valentia over Mode in my eyes. :/ She's claiming that she used her roleblock on Val, and that her roleblock was successful (I.E. she didn't get blocked in turn). So if it is as you say, Mode is lying in addition to someone else. And if that's the case, she's still using her lie to implicate Valentia, which would be insanely scummy.

The only other factor I can think of that would produce Pseudo-MyLo given no LyLo yesterday is scumkill+2 delicious pastry vanishes.  So this very well may not be MyLo at all.

One remaining question - one for Drake and Slaves - is clarification on what the Magical Drawing Tools actually do.  Specifically, I don't see a ##command for Purvis's ability given inthread, and what exactly you're told about what each role does is unclear.

There is no command for Purvis's Governor ability. I was just told that I PM the mod if I don't want the lynch to go through. ##Stalk is tied to Purvis's cloak, which I don't have.

Also, I don't have the ##Pastry ability anymore, because it got replaced by Purvis's Governor ability.  And I feel like things would be more clear to you if you read posts a little more carefully. :/

Magical Drawing Utensils: Once each night I can ##Draw someone. Drawing someone copies their role ability so that I can use it the next day/night, until I draw someone new where it gets replaced. I can both ##Draw someone new and use the ability at the same time.


I'm really not convinced of Valentia's scumminess, and it's to the point where I don't feel comfortable putting a vote down on her over Mode. I just can't believe that Val got a "lucky guess" on Purvis's role ability, and I don't like the ad hoc explanation that came up of "She must have used her ability on an earlier day and was lying". It's within the realm of possibility I suppose, but it still seems like a stretch.  Scum team obviously had enough sense to kill Kilga on D2, and I don't know why they would have killed somone like Eve N1 which makes me think she wasn't vigged. Also, "sacrificial lamb" implies that dying might have been part of her role.

It would be more clear if people precisely fullclaimed the first time >_>

I don't have anything against lynching Mode.  I remember the cheesevotes at the end of D2, I remember hating her D1, she has the lowest posting rate of everyone still alive in the game by a fairly large margin and doesn't seem particularly interested in finding scum or sorting out what happened.  Valentia is if anything a utility lynch based on the least possible harm and basically ignoring the night action mess.

Roleblockers do not get notification of if they were Roleblocked.  If Mode was blocked, there would only be one liar.

If you can no longer Pastry then I have no idea why we're in MyLo but I get the impression I won't like it.

I don't disagree with your reasons for not voting Valentia and can vote Mode, sure.  Want me to L-1 her?

I second Drake's explanation of my role.  And yes, I meant to say that I did nothing on N3 but looks like my english failed me...

Quote
Roleblockers do not get notification of if they were Roleblocked

I second this; I was roleblocked on N1 by Drake and the mod simply said that nothing happened.

---

I don't like Mode not really participating in the discussion either (especially regarding still planning to roleblock me tonight after all that happened), but still, I'm not convinced that she should get the vote over her.  There is only one scum left, and if Mode was scum she must have submitted the kill.  But there is no reason why she should not roleblock donut while killing him after donut claiming death resistance (if Mode is scum); you could say all her actions might have to generate all this madness the next day, but at the expense of giving town one more day to win?  I don't think it really makes sense, and if there's a third-party involved, I don't see how scum could know the existence of such a thing on N3.

As for Valentia, all the clears given to her (e.g not killing anyone on D1/N1 (I think Eve was fated to die) even after being told that the bat could be lost, etc), don't seem that convincing to me (it's okay to keep it till D2), and I would say that knowing a person's rolename is not as fantastic as what people think it is (e.g Trance may have had the ability to ##copafeel someone before everything started like I did?  etc.)  It's just that Valentia's night actions don't make sense at all in a townie context, while Mode's actions don't make sense on the off-chance that she is scum...  Thus, I would go for Violentia instead.

Drake.  Were there any strings attached to the vigbat item you received?  Specifically, anything that would stop Violentia from using it D1.

Nope. Very simple description, just saying that I could ##Kneecap someone to death day or night. One shot, refills when switched, can't be used in LyLo (these last three details I found out by mod query, not the description itself.)


I guess the only question to ask now is, would a No-Hammer be better than hammer in this situation, given MyLo? Probably should have talked about this sooner, but.. eh. Donut has death resistant, and can protect the person whose flip would give us the least information.. It's just an idea, haven't put much thought into it yet.

Well, it's MyLo, so if we No Lynch then we should still be in the game tomorrow.  And I'd hate to lose because we followed what we thought was best with limited information.

Since you brought it up, given that the Moriyatar has entered discussion, and considering there was no kill last night for reasons we can't quite tie down, there is one alternative left to think about - rather than there being a kill but no roleblock, why not the reverse?  I think we could see if that's true by No Lynching.

There is no 'should'; if we do not lynch today we will definitely be in the game tomorrow per Neo's (http://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,7309.msg466023.html#msg466023) post. The real question is, 'are we in Pseudo-Mylo because the only thing stopping us from a loss is Donut's pastry-defense, or is it because we have a risk of two people dying tonight if the NK goes through and Donut kills himself'? I have a feeling that its the latter tbh, it seems to makes more sense given that we weren't in Pseudo-Mylo yesterday.

So this doesn't add up at all.

If Drag Commando's Bulletproof is an item, then why is it just now coming out when you said "I didn't receive anything from the Mystery Bomb"?  Alternatively, has anyone had two items at once at any given time? since Val has already claimed use of the Item Identifier.

If Drag Commando's Bulletproof is part of the role, then you shouldn't have it at all.  Quite the contrary, it should be with Drake right now.  (Val was swapped with Trance, then Trance was swapped with Drake)

And speaking bluntly, I doubt you were targeted by a kill overnight.  Not after helping Trance self-hammer.

Val's roleclaim checks out on my end. She started out with role stealer, swapped roles with trance, who then swapped roles with me and died with powerswitcher. The role stealer is uncontrollable and happens seemingly randomly.

I can't prove the bulletproof dress part, but there's nothing to discredit it either. I don't see how her sudden reveal of this changes things either, though it would have been nice to know sooner. It doesn't contradict anything that has been revealed already, nor would this reveal make anyone want to avoid voting her. It's a nulltell if anything.

Yes. I have the rolestealer. Trance flipped up as a powerswitcher, go and check the actual flip post. If it says that Trance flipped up as a rolestealer in the OP, then Neo made a mistake there.

By the way, said flip post also shows that Trance originally had drag commando if you were entertaining the idea of Val having
 it all along. Look at what Neo crosses out.

I can't check any of these details or link anything because I'm phoneposting, but I know for a fact that I saw Trance flipped up as a powerswitcher.

I also thought that Val's starting role was Drag Commando.  I'm clearly not as good at identifying memes as I thought.  That also patches things up much more nicely; a scum Bulletproof makes a little more sense.

Don't worry, the feeling's mutual.

So here's what you're telling me.  Maybe this will be for my own benefit, I don't know.

DRAKE:  Powerswitcher with Roleblock gun
VALENTIA: Role Stealer with Vigbat
TRANCE: Drag Commando with One-Shot Anonyvote

Powerswitcher N1 gives Vigbat to Trance and Death Resistance (previously obtained through me) to Trance.
*We know this because Trance-scum hit Kilga.
--At this time, Valentia apparently becomes a Drag Commando (Trance's role).

Powerswitcher N2 gives Vigbat to Drake and Roleblock gun to Trance.
*We know this because Drake definitely claimed bat D3, pre-bomb.
--At this time, you apparently become a Role Stealer (Trance's role again).

This makes a little more sense.  The Role Stealer operates such that if you change items with someone, you swap roles as well.

In that case, the logic about vigbat holds, and
##Unvote: Valentia
Looks like a Modey Mode lynch.

The only thing unclear to me right now off the top of my head is how Trance swapped his one-shot anonvote with your death resistance before I swapped Val and Trance's items , Donut.

That, I can't tell you.  The only clue I've got is this--
Quote from: Trance
My Night 1 action was used to use my role power #copafeel on Pescohax to find out the exact power he had, and it turns out, he can swap items! Then I asked the mods whether or not you can swap roles with dead people, and it also turned out you can. So we may have another person running around with an item swapping power of Mindhax.
...but Pesco was already long dead and as far as I'm aware there's no way for anyone to have swapped roles with him.  Plus it's Trance saying it, so veracity isn't guaranteed here.

If Mindh4x or Hijacker or whatever worked during Day 1 then they might have obtained it that way, but I wasn't informed of the item swap until the end of N1, so I don't know.

Well, maybe.  If Hijacker was what I think it was, it might have been possible for scum to have been able to use Pesco's stuff postmortem.

Kind of interesting that Valentia also used #copafeel on a dead player but whatever.

Oh wait, one more thing.

Alternatively, if Drake could ask huh what the same questions ("How many times did I get targeted last night again?" "If the same person targeted my target with two different actions, how many nibbles would I get?") and see if we get a different answer. >_>
This was my favorite post.

Wow you suck. >:|

Anyway, player flips since Serela is apparently incredibly lazy. These were done from memory so I might have gotten the newbies mixed up.

Kilgajesus -> Bardiche
Alice Boofybofh -> Zakeri
Easy Modo -> Furienify
Slabes -> Affinity
Omega Wrathie -> Kiro
Violentia -> zwlda
Pescohax -> FFM
HoboverlordPurvis -> Kilgamayan
Kuruminut -> u?
Sana Spice -> Polaris
GODrake -> Nobu
TranceTheHime -> PX
Eve L. Deuhr -> NeoSerela (really)

Not many people guessed from what I can tell. I only got one PM anyway, there were two sent to Serela but not me (;_;).

I'll leave posting the role PMs up to Serela I guess, but to hold you all over, here's (http://www.quicktopic.com/45/H/GbtwpbvUyA23m) the graveyard, which had a couple things explained in it.

And gratz to Sana Spice (Polaris) for doing really well on player guessing! Ungratz to Affinityslabes for getting everyone other then himself wrong! But we still love you anyway.

Oh and huhwhat has the right stuff, except FFMaster baity's bro was Pescohax and PX was TranceTheHime :3

I want to know what the hell was up with Sana's role. Was he a third party or what? Why didn't my item work on him? And why did his power work when the time stamps he used were out of order?
The order the words were said in real time didn't matter.

Sana was immune to certain night actions at night, which I assume explains why you didn't get a full result. (Actually Serela messed up, but that can be his excuse because it really was part of Sana's role.)

I also have my personal QuickTopic (http://www.quicktopic.com/45/H/xuJvkqqjPPYc) for keeping track of the game. Kudos to scum for playing a good game; you had me completely fooled when I died, save for Slaves convincing me to go after Trance.

A few things I feel should be mentioned:

@Kuruminut: Please never entertain the thoughts of "utility lynches", especially not during MyLo. It was rather frustrating for us graveyarders to see. Also, please don't take offence to the charicatures I made in QuickTopic Graveyard, I meant no offence.

@HoboverlordPurvis: Damn you. You should have just continued your string of in character posts. They made early game for me.

@NeoSerela: A few requests.

1) Please don't hijack someone's account and then do nothing at all.
2) Please don't send varying role information to people, or incomplete role information, or differing role names. Better organisation works wonders.
3) Please don't give Town "personal victory conditions": they're more of a third party that can win with Town at that time, and I would discredit them as Anti-Town at any moment they pursue a win condition that differs from Town's.
4) Please keep your co-mod informed of everything so we don't get players wondering if they need to ask both mods for varying answers.


It was an enjoyable (if sometimes frustrating) game to watch even after I died, though. Kudos to Scum for a game well-played. You'd almost had'em.

Town MVP... I think GODrake deserves that title.



Also, I did not intend to play at all, and while I had hoped to die N1, I can find myself in a D2 death.

I seriously would not have been able to properly answer the question Kurumunut mentioned in that post. :x
I was left out of the loop on a lot of things, here.

Also, since I forgot to address this. Kudos to the scumteam for trying their best to put up a fight, considering how much things were stacked against them player-wise (Mode was the only non-newbie, and the only other time he's played here he rolled scum as well :x )

>Invisibility Clock was supposed to be a cloak
>No trance I did not give you a "baseball bay"
>Way too many friggin ways to reveal roles, resulting in too much confirmed info after a massclaim
>MAJOR MOD FAILURE IN LAZINESS OF ACTUALLY PLAYING MY ROLE
>Removing two townies from the setup to speed up Sign Up Phase reaaally messed things up, and town could have lost with only one mislynch, even after a successful doc! And very nearly DID!
>Totally forgot to actually tell Purvis what Sana's role did on Night 1 rofl
>Forgot to put in role pms that Powerswitching was compulsive (I received some "You Bastard" pms on night 1 due to this)
>Way overcomplicated how Governor was supposed to send in lynchstops
>Removed Delicious Pastry role's ability to die from nibbling but forgot to tell Donut (:V)
>Got zwlda to play, which after the game started ended up being like pulling teeth

And probably some more stuff.

Words cannot express how much I'm grateful for not having to use IE any more.

Thanks for only almost strangling me.  I actually did say something I basically knew was false about items D2 and "Purvis" called me on it, but I felt that if I admitted it it would have been the last straw for the lynch mob.  I did what I could to be helpful, and I'm glad in the long run I didn't just give up and let myself be lynched (which I definitely considered).

Also, I get the impression Serela really, really wanted to play his own game.  I like the roles but dislike the modding.  Please post the Role PMs.

Also also, this game has already started completely screwing with my mind when reading the other boards.

@HoboverlordPurvis: Damn you. You should have just continued your string of in character posts. They made early game for me.
Agreed.
Also, Mode's Umineko post was impressive.  I found Wrathie entertaining too, although his posts may have been too readable to match the original.~

"God dammit. She just had to...
Grr. I would have won if it wasn't for her."

You are Valentia, the possible sadist! Mafia sounds like a rather interesting game... lots of killing, funfun! When you heard about a game being hosted in an old mansion, you couldn't resist the opporitunity; it seems like the perfect time to learn how to play mafia is now!

Your role is Role Stealer! If a chance arises, you'll steal somebodys rolepower from right under their nose, and they won't even know it was you. You aren't entirely sure when these chances will arise, but you'll steal the rolepower automatically if you can.

You've also been given a special item for this mafia game; a baseball bat. Time to kneecap some bitches. During night or day, you may PM ##Kneecap:-target- to the host as a one-shot vig kill. Use it wisely! Hopefully you won't lose this useful item.

You win when all threats to town are eliminated and the mansion's doors open, allowing you to leave.

If you have any questions zwlda, just ask me x3

Wow, that's a lot of newbies. Pretty awesome. Two newbies + Furineify scum team? :V Impressive play given you had a combined what, two games between all of you?

Note to newbies: You gotta be reading posts more and posting reasons with your votes more. zwlda in particular, since you were actually town. It was pretty frustrating to watch you disappear for long periods of time and return with little information that didn't look like you had read much of the topic in your absence. I will certainly grant you first game jitters, as long as you're willing to use this as a learning experience.

Sorry to everyone for dropping the roleplay, Isaiah Mustafa is a lot harder to emulate than you might think. I also felt like he was interfering with clarity.

I sent no guesses because IP addresses are visible to me in posts and seeing several familiar addresses while puttering around the forums kinda ruined the mystery on several players. Eve in particular I knew all along because Serela didn't even bother to use a proxy or anything despite two mods having signed up for his game. <_<

Not sure on my town MVP vote. Bard did a fantastic job of looking town and thinking things through but he died too early. Kiro did a fantastic job of looking town and thinking things through but his slam dunk case ended up being wrong. Youmu and Affinity did a good job at thinking but they needed role shenanigans to clear themselves. Nobu broke the game open a good deal with his role analysis but he started saying a whole load of wrong things on the final day and I'm 95% sure he would have been my Day 5 vote had the game continued after a Mode scumflip. Really a tossup between any of them.

Fun Fact: I originally signed up as Pesco but switched to Purvis after the real Pesco commented on there not being a Purvis.

@u?: I meant the drawings I did. I made three of them as we were awaiting endgame in the Graveyard. Most involve you going Nyoro~n. I dunno, I liked that face on you.

@Huhwhat: Like I said. Kilga's my idol, want to be him, etc.

@Sana: Pasting my rolePM, I am reminded of your failure to share my Bomb-ness with everyone. Sigh! :(

--

"Another mafia regular, huh? Not suprising.
He's pretty good though, which is worrying.
I hope he doesn't mess up my plans..."

You are Kilgajesus, a mafia player that strikes fear into the heart of scum! Unfortunately, being at the top of scum's "Townies to Kill" list every game can kind of suck sometimes.

When you heard about the mafia game being held at the old mansion, you thought it sounded pretty interesting, so you decided to come. There totally couldn't be any foul play at work here. Nope. Nuh-uh.

Your role is Super Neighbor! You have a one-shot ability to have the mod claim you as a townie bomb to one person through PM. Not that you ARE a bomb (You are not, in fact!), but at least if you hit a scum with this power they'll stay away from you for once! When you want to use this ability, send the host a PM with ##ComeToJesus:-target-.

At least it isn't ##Screw, like that other time.

You also have been given a special item at the start of the mafia game; a Lie Detector! Every night you may send one post to the host, and I or huhwhat will tell you to the best of our knowledge whether there are any lies in that post or not. Hopefully you won't lose this useful item.

You win when all threats to town are eliminated, at which time the mansion's doors will open for you to leave victoriously.

If you have any questions, ask me through PMs on either the forum or #touhou-meido IRC.

I'm getting around to it! Like, next post.

And it's more that I didn't want to punish some nib who picked Eve L. Duehr with a ridiculously ridiculous role, and it'd speed signups up some; plus the win con. and role made it so being the mod and playing it would actually work.

But then I was too lazy to actually bother playing, so. Yeah. That was bad. I almost modkilled myself, but then I got lynched anyway... It didn't help that it already took over AN HOUR AND A HALF to get night action stuff done every night, holy shit it's amazing I even got days started roughly on time

Oh and Purvis early game posts were awesome along with most of what Wrathie said. That was so fun to read, even if I had to read wrathie's posts 3 times to understand it all.

You are TranceHime, grinding masochist! You were invited to a mafia game in an old mansion, so you decided "Eh, why not?" and came!

Your role is Drag Commando! With your bulletproof dress, you are immune to killing powers; and once every night you may pm the mod ##CopAFeel:-target- on one person to discover their own rolepowers!

You also have been given a special item that allows you to deploy one anonymous vote on someone. It's one-shot, lasts one in-game day, and cannot be taken back. Hopefully you won't lose this useful item!

Here is your quicktopic where you may chat with Pesco and Mode, your scumbuddies!

You win when all non-scum are eliminated, and the mansion's doors open for you to leave.

It was no end of confusing (and somewhat frustrating due to the confusion) to watch everyone laud Kilga's praises and talk about how townie he was when I knew they weren't talking about me.

I will, however, take personal victory in calling my own player before they had even signed up.

"Sana is p.cool... but also one of them.
And they've all got to go."

You are Sana! You, among many others, have recieved a sudden invitation to a mafia game in an old mansion. You've got no idea how mafia really works, but you suppose you might as well try it!

You are a Planeteer! On the way to the mansion, you got horribly, horribly lost. You're still not entirely sure how you got them, but while you were lost, you found 5 strange rings! If you can manage to use these rings, you might just be able to get out of the mafia game a bit early!

You win when all threats to town are eliminated, causing the mansion's doors to open; or, when you manage to activate all 5 rings and summon Captain Planet to break you out.

Activating the 5 rings is fairly simple. They are activated when someone says "Earth", "Fire", "Wind", "Water", and "Heart". If five SEPERATE people (which may include you) each say one of these words during the mafia game, you may make a post including a short quote of where they each said the word, and then use the command ##GoPlanet to fufill your special win condition.

Oh, and you can also switch people's power items during the night. PM the host ##Powerswitch:-targetA- and -targetB- during the night to switch the two target's items. You are indeed allowed to target yourself with this, if you so desire.

You also have been given your own special item upon the start of the mafia as well that, using your trait of becoming lost, renders you untargettable for many kinds of night actions. Hopefully you won't lose the item, too; well, unless you do so on purpose with your power, that is.

If you have any questions, ask me through PMs on either the forum or #touhou-meido IRC.

The powerswitching went successfully.

During the night, Kilga touches your heart and you see the light! Kilga is a Townie Bomb.

I assure you it was my greatest pleasure to torment you, Kilga, by taking the praise aimed at your name, and make it my own.

As well, I insisted that either I be Kilga, Trance or myself when I signed up. I signed up primarily to get that last member in, and because I figured if I really WAS Kilga, some might WIFOM it and think it too obvious to be me. Of course, my lack of knowledge of player names made it abundantly clear that I could not possibly be a regular.

My first thoughts when the game started were, "Damnit, what did I begin?!", and after that it was mostly, "DOn't post don't post kilga wouldn't post so don't post don't post AAAH YOU POSTED".

@notKilga:  Again, I can't blame you.  I'm many things to many people, but I don't think I've been a Master of the Obvious for a long time.  But fwiw, it's somewhat harder to find scum when you don't already know who they are and half the players don't make logical sense.

Also, my identity should have been incredibly obvious.  Even the Kogasa avatar is a halfghost (look at the legs).

You are Donut, MotK's edible buttmonkey* in no way related to Edible! You've recieved a sudden invitation to a game of mafia in an old mansion. You usually just replace out, buuut... maybe you'll give this one a try. Maybe you'll get a nice role?

Your role is Delicious Pastry. Each night you may go to one person's room, and sleep there for the night. Anyone who comes to visit will be unable to resist taking a bite out of you, and depending on what they came to do, their intended action may fail (Nightkills will fail, for example). You can only take so many nibblings, though, before there's nothing left...

PM the host ##Pastry:-target- with your intended target during night phases.

You have also been given a mystical item upon the start of the mafia game. With this item, you are Death Resistant. If you die (from getting eaten too much, or nk'd, for example), then for the next game day you shall be a Chicago Voter; unable to talk, except to vote/unvote once per post, and only able to do even this after at least two other people have spoken since your last vote. Hopefully you won't lose this useful item.

You win when all threats to town are eliminated, at which time the mansion's doors will open for you to leave.

If you have any questions, ask me through PMs on either the forum or #touhou-meido IRC.

*Donut told me it was totally fine to call him a buttmonkey in this role pm. Just in case you were wondering >:

Also, innuendo-laced result PMs.

Quote
You were nibbled five times during the night while cuddling with Purvis in his sleep. Goddamn.

You have experience with being nibbled though, and you can tell that three of the nibbles were by the same person! Huh.

"Maybe someone just really likes donuts... ;_;..."
Quote
You snuggled with Drake during the night!

But nothing happened.

You still kind of liked it, though.

@russiansigns: Oh, I definitely agree with that. Again, I meant no ill will. I know full well that we had Perfect Knowledge at the time of who were scum, so perhaps it was more obvious to us. I do maintain that Mode provided almost no real game input at all past my death, and I can't help but wonder if it wouldn't have made things easier for you guys had you noticed that.

Of course, lynching Valentia was completely understandable.

ROLE PM LIST. Typed up copies of all the puushes from the pregame image I had.

Kilga: http://puu.sh/gLw
Sana: http://puu.sh/gLy
Donut: http://puu.sh/gLz
Drake: http://puu.sh/gLA
Purvis: http://puu.sh/gLC
wrathie: http://puu.sh/gLD
Valentia: http://puu.sh/gLE
Alice: http://puu.sh/gLF
Slaves: http://puu.sh/gLG
Mode: http://puu.sh/gLH
Trance: http://puu.sh/gLJ
Pesco: http://puu.sh/gLK

And I was Eve L. Duehr Day 1. Each night I would target someone to possess and take over their account (and posting in whatever quicktopic they may have). Mode was unpossessable as a rolepower. My goal was to get the four godmothers, Donut, and Valentia killed, as revenge/an attempt to get a godmother position without anyone knowing I had killed them all! This is purely flavor-wise, of course.

If I had actually bothered to play and fulfill my role condition, I would have disappeared during the night, probably causing more confusion the next day as people try to find out who the new possession target was when nobody was possessed.

For those who didn't read all the pms, Mode and Slaves were a Scum/Town third party team that would combine into MODESLAVES and win the game if there was 4 or less total people left. That's why it was Pseudo-Mylo! They would have been very strong during the night after the Mystery Bomb, with everyone fullclaimed and having a NK, Roleblock, and Hijack at their disposal.

OH, and about that Trance targetting Purvis (and therefore nibbling Donut) 3 times Night 1.

If you've read the scumtopic, you'll see Trance sent in ##CopAFeel on Purvis three times night 1, just to make sure I got it. Well, ah...

Quote
You cop a feel on Purvis successfully during the night, and discover that he is a Governor!

A Governor has a one-shot ability to stop any lynch that is not on himself.

And then you go back to do it twice more, just for good measure. Or something.

I couldn't resist :V And yes, Donut's result pms were awesome too.

I have three pages of pms in my Inbox and Sent Box just from this stuff x_X

<Polaris> but but but you can say something vague like
<Polaris> "Valentia is a cookie!"
<MafiaSerela> I gotta start in 29 minutes and I have more results to send and flavor to write ;_;

<Polaris> and then I'll have to decipher it to uncover the true meaning

<MafiaSerela> Valentia is a cookie!

<Polaris> B|
<MafiaSerela> Only I know the answer to that.
<Polaris> then only I know the answer to your question

<Polaris> Neo, is Trance a cookie?
<MafiaSerela> are you going to ask if everyone is a cookie
<Polaris> no
<Polaris> I only asked for confirmation on Val's cookieship and Trance is the second person I'm asking on

<Polaris> Serela is it a bad thing if I'm responding to Wrathie's post with a continuation of the lyrics
<MafiaSerela> No

<Polaris> DOES THIS MEAN I'VE FOUND SCUM?!?! 8D
<MafiaSerela> what?
<Polaris> 8D
<MafiaSerela> I'm
<MafiaSerela> so confused

<Polaris> Serela are Trance and Mode cookies
<Polaris> are you going to answer this with a coherent answer
<MafiaSerela> yes
<MafiaSerela> they are cookies
<MafiaSerela> except mode is only half a cookie
<MafiaSerela> the other half got eaten
<Polaris> by slaves? D:
<MafiaSerela> no
<MafiaSerela> slaves baked her c:
<Polaris> D:
<Polaris> who ate her then
<MafiaSerela> idk everything!
<Polaris> D:

THEY'RE ALL COOKIES. ALL OF THEM.
I was using cookie as a term for "not particularly experienced-at-Mafia people" but I think Serela interpreted it as being "scum" by the very last conversation, which is why Trance is a cookie and Mode is a half-cookie. :V

Phew. I was about ready to pull my hair out if the game lasted for much longer. My head was starting to hurt from all the speculation this last day.

And oh god there's so much to read through even though the game is over already ;_;

>Forgot to put in role pms that Powerswitching was compulsive (I received some "You Bastard" pms on night 1 due to this)

Fun fact: I actually was considering ##Disable-ing myself so I wouldn't have to use my Powerswitcher role. :V I don't remember if I asked you about it or decided otherwise in the end.

Thanks for only almost strangling me.

Sorry if I sounded a little bit abrasive. No hard feelings though. :x

Nobu broke the game open a good deal with his role analysis but he started saying a whole load of wrong things on the final day and I'm 95% sure he would have been my Day 5 vote had the game continued after a Mode scumflip. Really a tossup between any of them.

A whole load of wrong things? Like what? :/
Title: Re: MotK Psycho Plot Mafia ~ Game Over, Town Win
Post by: GMOFucker: Makin' GMOs To Fuck 'Em on October 26, 2010, 01:17:31 AM
Here's my own take on things, because I clearly haven't made enough postgame posts already.
This game was fairly fun to co-mod and watch unfold at first, but unfortunately, D4 turned out incredibly dull for me because it was all role speculation, and I feel that if people had actually looked past roles for a bit (not saying the role speculation was entirely BAD) then maybe Furienimode would have been caught much easier, but then again I was reading this game from the goggles of somebody who already knew who was scum.

I actually liked seeing a lot of the roles in action (planeteer etc), but was a bit irritated because Serela had only given me vague info about a lot of them (there some roles that were to be used during the day that I assumed were night roles, etc). Then again maybe I just should have read the PMs more thoroughly? I dunno. I probably wasn't very good for reviewing the setup either (I did not raise nearly enough complaints as I should have towards a few roles, notably Eve), so I probably deserve a bit of rage over that too.

Additionally, people, when the mod tells you to send your actions to both the mod and the co-mod, it's nice to actually listen to them. I felt left out of the loop by both Serela and the players, honestly.

I do maintain that Mode provided almost no real game input at all past my death, and I can't help but wonder if it wouldn't have made things easier for you guys had you noticed that.
It was noticed.  Valentia wasn't doing anything either though.  Nor was Slaves, really.  For two of them, there was a reason for it.

The last Day's wagons came down to Slaves and Mode on one side and Purvis and Drake on the other.  All other things being equal, it was an easy decision.

Incidentally, with the exception of clearing Mode midway through D2 I insist that my Town reads were not wrong at any point.  Now consider that of the people left D2, there was:
*Sana - third party wannabe
*Trance - scum
*Mode - scum(ish)
*Slaves - scum(ish)
*Valentia - Valentia
*Drake - recently unpersoned into scum
And you wonder why I had a hard time choosing one.

Never again in a 13-player game will you put in two scumteams, a Townie who can ditch everyone else, and a third party who doesn't count as being in the game to begin with.

I'm being serious.  It's not fun to play a game that you don't have a chance to win.  (See earlier in the post for an idea of who THREE and a half TOWNIES were up against D2.)

I'm assuming Wrathie was Mod Note Insane?  Flavorful, but *>.>

Poor huhwhat ;_;

Also, I almost forgot! Time for more HUHWHAT ABUSE!

Game start flavor, Huhwhat comes stomping into the mansion to complain. Eve L. Duehr (Me in disguise using a transformation potion with hair of Eve L. Duehr's twin sister I kidnapped and then killed N1 to provide a dead body) attacks Huhwhat and ties him up and throws him in the basement to be the captive comod.

The first letter of every votecount spelled "Huhwhat basement!" and then there was Hungry Votecount Thirsty Votecount etc. But no one mentioned huhwhat at all, or even payed attention to him by sending him their action pms!

So, everyone ended up leaving the mansion at the end (if they were alive), not realizing huhwhat was still tied up in the basement after 4 days without food and only a pail of stale water. Poor huhwhat.

Haha, sorry. I really was paranoid that I'd be batted or shot as soon as the day started, and I had thoroughly convinced myself that you were the last scum. I figured that even if I got killed right away, throwing a vote on you would at least get people to give you a better look and come to the same conclusion I did. It wasn't so much the "You're scummy for never being suspected!" as it was "Does Purvis really have a good reason for never having been suspected?"

In the middle of my big explanatory post to explain why I thought you were scum, I hit a major incongruency when I was explaining why Mode was likely town. That's when I needed the roleclaims to get my information straight. :< By the time I was asking you specifically for roleclaim, I didn't feel very good about my scumread on you at that point.

Rage time: In a 13 player game, along with the standard 3 scum, you had three 3rd parties (Eve, Slaves, and a hidden 14th player in the mod), and a pseudo 4th one in Sana's role. And you also had me with the Magical Tree Stump that would also remove a Townie from a game if used. Couple that along with me knowing something was odd with Drake in Day 2 (I just "knew" he was lurking considering his Day 1 activity, but never suspected he was possessed) and is there any wonder I was raging mad at the end of Day 2 flip. I'm sure you didn't run through enough experimental playthroughs of the modified setup and as we can now see, Town literally had to be perfect to win. And we got lucky as I said in the QT with the deadline switch to possessed Drake being pushed by scumTrance instead of him just jumping on to the Donut wagon after scumMode.

Not an overall happy feeling for me being wrong on Sana and then being wrong on Donut in Day 2. I was very confident in the Donut case, but I wanted to see more reactions/votes for or against it and when only Purvis went along with me, it boggled my mind. I knew there was a chance I could be wrong, but with nobody else committing to anything other than lynch the lurkers instead, it felt like I tunneled myself onto the Donut case until it was too late to change to someone else since I was the initiator of the case. I think I'm going to have to balance that in future games between less tunneling on a person with the cost of looking less Townie by stepping away from a case I started so heartily.

 As for all my wacky posts, I was just going by the Maniacal Princess persona. It was admittedly real fun; I should do it again.  :D I was going to sing a COPS theme song on Day 3 with my night action clearing Donut, and I was sad when it turned out I died and also didn't kill anybody with my bomb.

I felt Drake/Nobu did great for the calm explanation of his being possessed in Day 3 and using his Night actions to definitively finger Scum. And his activity on Day 4 to try to secure the Mode lynch and going back and forth with Donut was good. The early part of Day 4 as Kilgamayan just mentioned was a little shocking, but you managed to not tunnel too long on that. He's my MVP.

I guessed Alice as Alice and guessed Kilga as Zakeri. Was off there. Only got Purvis right.

Uh, I guess I'm flattered. I don't do well with compliments I'll admit, I tend to get embarassed. Maybe I don't have confidence appropriate for receiving them?

This does mean the next Anongame means I should relegate myself to a background position to elude the eyes of people...!

It's actually funny. The other place I play at I usually end up playing Roukanken-level, in that no one quite understands how I draw my conclusions and no one quite seems to see my way. I'll admit I feel my play's better when I play Anonymous anyway. I get too caught up in trying to be Not Like Me that I tend to do all the things I normally do wrong well... not wrong.

I think I only sent in two or three guesses and ended up being wrong on all of them, though. Need to familiarise myself with the MotK nicknames.

I also like AnonyMafia setups. I don't have to worry about people judging me for being new, and I can look at people more objectively without being intimidated or influenced by who they are.

I like Anonymafia setups because roleplaying during the earlygame is fun. Hooray for me having shallow tastes!

I'm really sad that I didn't think about posting in Danmakufu code until the last day.

...then again, missing deadlines is also a Drake characteristic too :3

Ungratz to Affinityslabes for getting everyone other then himself wrong! But we still love you anyway.

Awesome.  Really, I felt that everyone was so new.  I didn't even know that u-mu or Kiro came back.

Generally, I planned to win by ModeSlaves combination from the start due to me never ever having played the role before.  Thus, I deliberately didn't post that much during the early days and sought to play as a survivor would; scummy enough for scum not to NK me and townie enough so that I won't get lynched (e.g thin numbers by lynching Val, which I wouldn't do as town).  Nailing scum wasn't my priority, but I guess that I nailed Trance, somehow.  Of course, this was all because I believed that Mode was town until the very end.

An interesting tidbit is that if Mode was around when Valentia L-2'ed Purvis, we would have won.

The thing I did not like about this game is that its end was more like a Rubik's Cube than Mafia; was inclined to play the setup instead of the game because i wanted to win via ModeSlaves.  I'm quite riddled as to why Mode didn't try helping out with my Valentia  case, which I think made a little sense, but oh well, what's done is done.  I would have voted Mode if I was a vanilla townie though, and people like Drake and Purvis were definitely on the right track at the end of the day.  Was pretty much resigned to losing two days ago.  Donut gave me a hope spot, however; u-mu's play tends to gravitate between two extremes.

All the townies in this game except Valentia played  very very well and sensibly, and I suppose scum had a chance of winning only because of the setup, which was unbalanced with around 4-5 alignments (two of them mod-aligned), overly reliant on role speculation, and more of a very interesting logic puzzle than anything else (props to Captain Planet and the general effort behind it though).  You should have removed the lovers role at the very least, as well as Eve.  But yay, interesting.

Drake had sketch'd Purvis' gov shot, so quicklynching wouldn't have worked.

Hahaha no, I was terrible. Mostly because I was convinced Pesco was town for some reason and that changed my judgement or something.

But I think I'll keep playing Mafia though, in the hopes that I'll eventually improve... right? :V

Welp. That was fun, too bad it ended while I was asleep.

Honestly, my only option by D4 was to go all-out and lie my ass off to implicate someone else as hard as possible. If I had thought it out more and made a follow-up post of similar magnitude to Valentia (pointing out she could have investigated earlier, etc) there might have been a chance, but as soon as I saw people on the fence and staring at me it was pretty much over. I found it funny that only two days prior I was considering letting Slaves get pressured to claim as Mason, with my backing him up, and then killing him so he can be flip-confirmed- and, by proxy, myself. Assuming nobody brought up the Scum/Town possibility. Sorry bro. >_>

Also, ugh, I hate playing scum. So much tension. I invariably implicate myself on Day 1, too, without fail. At least this time I didn't have to go through with NoobTown as my label like I did in that last disaster mafia. Anonymafia format helped with the comfort, really; nobody knows who I am until the very end, and the game stayed free of angst and rage through and through. It was clean and it was definitely fun. I felt like throwing myself on a sword and getting the game over with during day 2/3 because of how much the scum team was stumbling. I had to soldier on while there was at least a chance, though.

It would have been a damn glorious win if it was ModeSlaves victory, but it just wasn't meant to be. :<

I thought umu was UK because of the quoting style :V

I think most of the haterage with Neo has been mentioned already. As I had said in the signups, this theme was going to be a wreck. On my flip, it was already possible to guess that flavour and alignments were tied somehow. You definitely didn't think through how the actions and roles would interact. Personally, I'm glad I didn't have the time to play in this one because of how much inconsistency there was. End of the stroy, organize your shit completely and don't do it on the fly.

Ah, that was an entertaining read.  Definitely one for the MotK history books.  I lol'd too many times to count, reading through the thread and the quicktopics.  Still...  I'm really glad I didn't sign up. :P  You've got the creativity, Neo, so I can only wish you good luck in making a setup that's fair as well next time.

Is it just me or does role madness tend to favor town a bit? There's more actual facts to examine through claims and whatnot, making town less reliant on speculation about player behavior.

I thought I was old-style you for being psychotic as Town, lynchbait, and overall right :V
But I hate the quotes here, 4srs.

The next time I play here I should join the ?nesco hydra :P

@Stuffman:  Town usually doesn't win role madness unless all the scum roles kill each other or the Town has a few broken roles up its sleeve, I think.

Well, at least nothing personal anyway.  But there was angst and rage. :P

I don't know if anonyformat helped me or not.  Only a few people remember when I played here before.

Nope. That's UK's thing now. Pesco's thing now is that he insults everyone whenever he thinks they're wrong, but doesn't explain why they are wrong.

...Wait, that still sounds like UK. :V

Something about town benefiting from rolemadness
It depends on the game. Role Madness games are almost impossible to balance properly from a mod-standpoint. Unless the mod has had a lot of experience, you tend to get things like a townie with the power to skip the nightphase (I'm still surprized town lost that game.) or games where you can have a perfect town victory, and still have it end in Pseudo-Lylo (I'm surprized town won this game.)

It that respect, I turn a sympathetic eye towards the NeoSerela was thinking behind this game. What I strongly suggest to him, is to take a look back at everything that's happened this game, and comparing it to what running a normal, C9 or roleless game of mafia would feel like. Keep in mind, balance isn't just about having enough townies to give town a decent amount of mislynches. Once you get the hang of what a balanced game feels like versus what a game you want to have all sorts of crazy fun with feels like, then you should rewrite all of the roles in your next MOTK psycho plot game, and even remove a few if you think some won't work out.

This is why I think it's important in such games for the mod to either give scum solid fakeclaims that they can be planning for from the start, or else just give scum powers that are indistinguishable from townie ones.

Which was the goal of MSR (or at least the Scum Playercop role, and the Swiss Army Knife to a lesser degree).

I think it's more that Anonymous here tends to favor town, because suddenly people aren't getting passes that they otherwise would, or people are being listened to more when they otherwise wouldn't be.
