Echo Bay Grits SEO [game over]

[Taly]

I should'a shot Iconeum.

See.

This shit right here is another reason why random shooting is bad.

Now we CAN'T figure out why

Varsoon

believed

Iconeum

was a better shot and more likely scum.

is varsoon not dead yet? I'm disappointed, you guys

Kill: Varsoon

UNVOTE:
VOTE: McMenno

Still waffling on

Eddie

X_X, but keeping my vote on someone is not going to help in this instance. I'm less confident in him coming from a scum POV.

PRICKS (and sometimes WANKERS) members:

Sando
Taly
hebichan
the worst

Shooting any of these members will result in getting shot yourself.

I've given more thought to this, and seeing

Sando

make an example here gives me a better idea of how it'll work. This is a valid strategy to not only figure out people's interactions, but see their reads.

I'm hesitant to use up my shot without town solidifying on the wagons after several days, however:

As of right now, I'm unwilling to vote and shoot these people

Sando

the worst

StefanB

Creature

Chickadee

They're all working to help town bind together, and are making decent pushes to have a stronger understanding of the game.

I think we should form townblocs/protections while continuing the sentiment of voting.

Going to make another VC very soon, at least, sometime today.

May 6th is our 5-day deadline.

[StefanB]

Taly: I think my desire to shoot him in around 15 minutes answers the question what I think about his shoot.

[Gammagooey]

heya

taly you're not going to be particularly happy with this game if you take it as seriously as you are

stefan i'll give you that 15 min, mcmenno doesn't look great but I'm shooting someone else if you don't get around to it by then unless you want to <words> about it real quick

[Iconeum]

we can make a kill-list and begin to shoot it top down in order to control all killings. This works if there are enough of us so we can ninja the kill each time.

fp'd by crazy Taly and others

[StefanB]

Gamma: Hello, again has been some time.
If you want to say somethink, okay.
Who do you want to shoot or don't you want to say it again.

[Sando]

I've given more thought to this, and seeing Sando make an example here gives me a better idea of how it'll work. This is a valid strategy to not only figure out people's interactions, but see their reads.

Just giving peeps space to work, plus I find random kills particularly boring, so hopefully it'll sort itself out in the next few days into something interesting.

Pretty sure we're gonna build a block, it'll get shot at once or twice and that person will die, then the people outside the block will decide to either join or kill each other with their super funtimes "random" shots.

Then the fun starts.

Who do you want to shoot or don't you want to say it again.

not gonna say it in case they magically appear and shoot me first b/c of it

it's someone with 1 or less posts tho

[Taly]

Oh, I skimmed through that on preview. X_X

@StefanB

I'd rather refrain from shots further from the deadline but there are multiple people on board with the shot, as am I.

We could make the deadline less fluid, and more "when a good portion of people" are invested in seeing a shot or flip.

Also

StefanB

, what are your thoughts on

PRICKS

? (XDDD funny name)

heya

I'm not really upset at all if that's how I'm being perceived. I tend to approach Mafia more forward and sometimes aggressively.

I do think this game is interesting, and that's kind of why I'm pushing for my stances a lot.

I'm feeling more confident in my

Sando

townread. He's geared to having flips gain meaning and working off of that.

I assure you I'm mentally stable,

Iconeum

.

Also, you said you liked my method better, where would your vote or potential shot go to?

[Sando]

Taly, what I'm saying is chill, nothing happening now is going to result in decent reads, unless you want to pull something like StefanB is right now, then this game isn't going to get interesting till the herd is at least thinned to a controllable point. Create the block, sit in it, protect it, and we'll get an interesting game in a few IRL days as the world burns around us.

PS. I feel like I'm playing to the lore, creating a block of people watching the world burn around them You're welcome mod.

[Taly]

I see your point. X_x Showing frustration is not going to help here.

I'll keep adding to the VC and townbloc while providing my assessments of the players and engaging with questions/thoughts.

[StefanB]

Shoot: McMenno

, a ultimatum should be enforched.

[Taly]

I'm on board with both creating a townbloc via protection and voting as if we were to lynch.

That's the most structured combination of approach so far.

[StefanB]

I like most of the players in PRICKS for town for now.
Was tempted to join but I rather did somethink else with my shoot.

[Sando]

I see your point. X_x Showing frustration is not going to help here.

One thing I've been considering, at some point the mod's activity levels is gonna play a part of this game since kills need to get resolved before moving onto the next one. I'm assuming any scum have daychat so have the advantage in terms of coordination. Probably a decent idea for us to have a good handle on the xyzzy's activity habits before scum start exploiting it against us. Admittedly I dunno how they do that without painting a massive target on themselves...but still, worth considering.

[StefanB]

I will contribute to voting after the shoot is cleared.

[Iconeum]

I am not gonna be giving (detailed) reads yet. The game is simply too big for that, for me. For now, I'm happy doing it as we go according to your strategy and we can begin searching for motivations and scumbehaviour later (if you guys wanna do that now, feel free lol).

Controlling the kills where we want them to go is just a matter of controlling the game better.

[Sando]

On the subject of mod activity, I think we implement a town-rule. Anyone submitting a kill within say 1 hour (at this player level this seems safe) of the mod resolving a kill should be the target of any towns kill.

ie, if you're on and you see someone shoot within an hour of a previous kill being resolved by mod, shoot the person that sent that kill and break any scum cycle that's happening.

[Chickadee]

Wow. A lot of kills while i slept. Can’t say I’m surprised.

Varsoon hasn’t slipped yet right? Varsoon if you around and still alive why would you have rather shot iconium?

[StefanB]

Varsoon is dead town.

[Chickadee]

There’s too many flips for me to keep track of what’s resolved :Dead:

[Taly]

McMenno

lolshot

Varsoon-Town

for no reason and now

StefanB

shot him after multiple votes were placed on him.

Would this rule conflict with the

"you must have a shot to be in the townbloc?"

I do think timing of kills may be AI given the nature of this game.

Also, I'll look into the mod's activity habits and see the best times to shoot.

I will say

xyzzy

was pretty active my time last night.

(Central time, 8 to 9 PM)

but I don't know if that's usual.

There’s too many flips for me to keep track of what’s resolved :Dead:

Same. I've reread the pages 5 pages twice now.

We need a few more members, say up to 10 or so, but then yes, I think it takes priority over that, we'd have enough shots elsewhere to ensure the kill.

[Gammagooey]

i was hoping to do this before 10 pages of junk but just to let ya know

my plan is to absorb catharsis from this game like a sponge in an ever increasing pool of blood

Kill: Harambey180

[StefanB]

For everyone the deads are in the first post.

@Mod could you please add the alligment of the players to the first post, will make it easier late game.
