TAZ Mafia: Murder on the Rockport Limited mod/dead thread

[Irrelephant11]

Hahaha nsg is playing an impressive active lurker game, if there is such a thing

[Varsoon]

I was calling NSG out for perma-lurking to victory from D1
I really wish the winning play on this site wasn't so often to just not play the game.

[Varsoon]

NSG not even being subtle
like instead of critiquing Skitter's enthusiasm, is just like "Hey vote the guy I want to lynch."

[Varsoon]

Removing voting modifiers in LYLO was not standard practice when I started on-site, as far as I recall.
It's something I've rolled into a lot of my games because I tend to run role madness games with lots of voting modifiers and I wanted LYLO to not be 'cheapened' just because of an unfortunate arrangement of roles.

[Varsoon]

I would not be surprised if my insistence on this has become site meta given the popularity of my games, how many other mods have modeled games after mine, and how many mods have asked if they could just lift my rules set.

[Varsoon]

Oof, jenkins flavor doesn't look all too great for Kokichi

[xyzzy]

the lylo discussion actually came up in setup design! the only role that doesn't work in lylo is Angus (which actually just triggers at a specific number of players regardless of how many mafia are alive). I'm not opposed to roles that don't function during lylo but I also don't like explicitly confirming when lylo is -- in this game I actually confirm in the rules that it's only 2 factions, but I like leaving those sorts of things at least a little ambiguous when possible. obviously 3 player lylo is almost always easy to work out as 2 town/1 mafia (and in the case of 2 factions has to be), but, like, if there are 7 players alive and no scum flips yet, I don't want the players to be 100% confident that it's lylo.

[Varsoon]

I'm of the mind that secretly being in lylo isn't really a fundamental part of the mafia experience and that it's a more interesting game when all players know they are in lylo.

It baffles me that people who didn't put any stock into my reads are now trying to lynch out my top scumreads from a hypothetical D1 list when it's obvious my night results are why I was day killed and the old list is not entirely relevant--what's even more shocking is that people think I would have blocked one of my most suspected slots instead of a lurker mid-range read that's more likely to take the kill but whatever stay basic I guess

[Irrelephant11]

tbf I've seen this same problem happen before, and I don't think it's specific to any given playerlist
Your list of "If Irrelephant flips town" really looks like a crumb in retrospect
Not that you'd know I'd be lynched at that point, but once I was, it's semi-reasonable to assume you'd have that list in mind when making your roleblock decision and use it as a crumb just in case you were nk'd

I'm hopeful skitter's nsg-paranoia bears out

[Varsoon]

Except when I made that list, I was not nearly as informed as I was at N1, so it's not good evidence to look to as a crumb. People really should be looking to the posts I made AFTER the block rather than BEFORE it.
Even if I had that list in mind and scum was at the bottom of it, I wouldn't be blocking people at the bottom, because if they were scum they'd be less likely to commit the kill because they'd be aware of the list and know that they've got attention on them.

[Irrelephant11]

I agree

It just so happens that your post looked crumby and the remaining players will likely keep reading it that way

[Varsoon]

What people seem to keep forgetting is that I generated that list when asked to, rather than procuring independently and on my own. :/

[Varsoon]

"Oh yeah, the Gacha!"
what a joke

[Varsoon]

Thankfully this actually seems to have renewed Shoshin's interest in the game and has driven Gacha votes and yes-man'ing away from NSG

[Varsoon]

Idk, I kinda feel he's suss but I also recall townbinning him for something recent

MAYBE BECAUSE I WAS VERY OUTSPOKEN ABOUT HIM BEING TOWN AND THEN I WAS SUCH A THREAT TO SCUM THEY SUICIDE BOMBED ME?

[Gammagooey]

maan it's probably not going to happen today but i'd be shocked if nsg doesn't get lynched for lurking this hard eventually

esp. if reck/skitter both survive for a bit longer

[Irrelephant11]

lol Reck thinks he's dead but I'm pretty sure I counted that he isn't

[Irrelephant11]

SKITTER WHAT

[Irrelephant11]

d i s a p p o i n t i n g

[Gammagooey]

hue

[Varsoon]

skitter more like shitter amirite
let's lynch confirmed town's highest townread
A+ play homedawg

[Varsoon]

CONFIRMED TOWN WHO FUCKING CONFIRMED BLOCKED THE KILL TOO
like jesus
the remaining town in this game make me lose faith

[Gammagooey]

yeah

it's not great

[Varsoon]

Like this is just straight up NSG Porkens scum claiming when they didn't even need to and now they're gonna do the weakest scum theater ever and I'm worried that
It's gonna work
