Overkill 2: A Blood-Thirsty Stallone Themed Game

[Wisdom]

Nancy you dont really have a case on majiffy.

[BuJaber]

I rolled scum.

You heard him.

God this page 1 scum theater has been great
I'm really glad I rolled with you guys as my team
Like what are the chances amirite

We signed up for murder. It was promised.

I mean we could just like randomly quicklynch someone, get all that murder happening asap?

One sec, lemme go to a random number generator and see who we're gonna lynch today.

Came up with 21(naturally I removed myself, and I'm in the list prior to that point, so that's actually 22), so RIP hebichan.

I <3 you, you're adorable, but RNGesus, who is superior in scumhunting skill to this playerlist, has determined you should die.

VOTE: hebichan

-Cerb

I ROLLED TOWN GUYS.

VOTE: JIFFY.

Can I not be the day one lynch again? Please. I want to play a game one of these months.

VOTE: RCE

VOTE: Hebichan

Hey punks, who got Rocky?

This was my exact thought upon reading my role pm, and not getting Rocky.

But I don't like this question.

Hey awesome people!

Have you read the first few pages of this game and are now thinking "Oh man so many posts! Why did I sign up to this?"
Are you already feeling disillusioned from the usual RVS process of people doing ridiculous claim things and voting people so that they look like they're SERIOUS BUSINESS when really they have no idea what they're doing either?
Or are you in fact just really super duper uber excited and are trying to hold yourself back from posting lots but kind of failing?

Well guess what? That's right! It's

Regfan

DV here and I'm going to make everything amazing!

Spoiler:

I like to think that here Sylvester Stallone is actually parodying the ridiculousness (and sexistness) of telling someone to "man up".

Hmm maybe I'm over thinking it.

Yeah I'm probably over thinking it.

Just kidding!

Spoiler:

But you know what? That's okay! Because Regfan probably does know what he's doing and he'll be here to post uhhh.... at some point!

--

Anyway, I've read the game up until now and honestly there's not really anything that jumps out at me. I'll probably read over things again in an hour or two and express some sort of opinion because I probably should.

-DV (obviously)

Like 2 -3 scum above
I included Fortian because on reading it a 2nd time it sounds overly enthusiastic - like how scum fake being carefree and excited.

Getting A50 vibes from Flavor's entrance.. trying to garner favor with the mod?

Also alchemist21's ISO is rather empty even though he's seemingly keeping up.



Pedit - yeah because you switched your vote from RC to me while still seemingly scumreading RC yet you are joining a fresh wagon because me saying that was RC's best post is apparently indicative of me being scum with him? And you want to lynch me first to prove he's scum or something? How does that make sense?

[BuJaber]

RCE v Varsoon are never buddies here

[Varsoon]

I'm saying that your comment that it was his best post doesn't hold water and seems like a weird way to start walking back your vote on him.
I want to vote you because your play bothers me more than his right now.

[BuJaber]

And you sound like you're lining up mislynches.

What was bad about his post? Don't you feel it showed actual reasoning compared to his previous posts where he was just spamming nothingness or naked unexplained reads? I don't think it makes him town but I'm encouraging more posts like that because they give much more insight into who he is and how he's approaching the game.

[Varsoon]

Oh shit I didn't realize I wasn't allowed to scumread more than one person in a 26 player game on D1
Fuck me right then

[Majiffy]

VOTE: BuJaber

Vote hop on RCE wagon was meh

[Majiffy]

@RR and anyone else who thinks they know:

What is your scum range? How would you characterize the difference between your town meta and scum meta?

It occurs to me that for someone like you (someone whose posts are kinda emotionless) the line becomes rather blurry.

But tails here claims you're already out of your scum range.

VOTE: BUjaber

Oh hey DGB beat me to the punch

[Varsoon]

It's minimum effort which, at that point, is practically required if he's actually scum.
It doesn't express much independent thought--the conclusions he's coming to in that post aren't challenging or particularly unique to RCE's PoV.
It feels like he skimmed up to that point and just recounted literally what happened.
I'm not a fan of it.
I don't get why you are.
Like yeah I can get 'encouraging better content' but it really doesn't look like that's what you were doing at all.

[Majiffy]

Oh Varsoon too

Damn I wanted to be cool and lead the charge

[Varsoon]

You can still take the reigns if you have some actual reasons to elaborate on why other folks should be voting there
This is my worst challenge when it comes to mafia
It's really hard for me to get others to see shit that I consider obvious

[DrewVa]

I just took Wisdom's vote on the slot as a placeholder. I'm not sure why you're running full throttle into not only thinking there's significance, but then basing it on meta, as if you need to justify your vote.

I don’t need to justify my vote.

You don’t think there’s any significance? Why not? *confused*

It has to be based on meta though, meta is the entire crux of what my read is based on. That’s the same basis I had, for shooting Marquis in BoD.

[pinturicchio]

Ehhhh

Nancy using meta to vote someone is consistent with someone who thinks they deserve to be townread based on meta.

Reading last 8 pages and this is the most important post I've seen

[BuJaber]

I like how dripping goofball's naked vote on me was one of the justifications to join my wagon. I can see the path you're taking in your mafia career. Baa baa

[DrewVa]

Nancy you dont really have a case on majiffy.

Why are you voting him then?

This post makes 0 sense coming from you.

[pinturicchio]

My thoughts about this last 8 pages: the tinfoil hat is back, babyyyyyy. Wisdom and DrewVa's drama finishing with both voting the same slot seems staged. But I'll leave the tinfoil hat saved for later.

@Tails we have to talk sweetie. I would say profii is more likely scum for his list than town. Not because of the content (well that's something too) but because of the intention: big big game, scary game, you want to be active or seem to be 'cause lurking as scum is good strat and people could hunt you down for staying out of focus while someone else steals the show. profii said it himself. So let's say profii is scum and it's scared of a huge list of players who seems to know each other and know what they are doing. The best way to look busy is to create an early readlist and EXPLICITLY SAY "I'll reply to anyone who ask me about my reads" or something like that. So: profii doesn't create any content 'cause that's too risky. Instead, he waits for the rest to create content for him; if you ask, confront or agree with profii about one of his reads, you will give him the chance to look busy by replying whatever you say. That's the best way to stay engaged when engaging looks scary.

BuJaber and RR, followed closely by the blowfish, are my townreads so far.

[pinturicchio]

That, plus the early comments trying to blend in. Fortian felt it, I felt it. From all the players who were messing around on RVS, profii's post were the ones who stood out the most.

[Alchemist21]

Also alchemist21's ISO is rather empty even though he's seemingly keeping up.

Yeah don’t expect me to post a lot until I get engaged. A lot of my keeping up has been just skimming tbh.

I find it weird that this is the reason he “demotes” me on his list. Something weird is going on here with both Wisdom’s/Profil’s reactions to my vote.

[Alchemist21]

I have this same problem too.

And I swear when I’m right nobody ever listens to me; when I’m wrong everyone wants to agree.

[pinturicchio]

The important bit is now when people start asking me questions as I will get a feel for what people like or don’t like about the list so yeah that’s kinda my plan - I’m pretty new to games with so many players so I’m kinda trying to draw some conversation my way to get involved

This is what I was quoting about profii, by the way.

I can see where you’re coming from with the Profi thing but Townies withhold reads and reasons more often than you’d think, at least on this site. I wouldn’t scumread someone based on that alone.

Why is the Fish Town to you?

I'm not scumreading him for witholding reads and reasons, I'm scumreading him for asking the rest of us to ask for his reasons. I've seen town withold and not brag about it.

Fishbowl town because he makes sense, at least for me. Same with BooJaber and RR. But it's more of a gutread than the other two.

Nancy you dont really have a case on majiffy.

Why are you voting him then?

This post makes 0 sense coming from you.

I almost want to revote you

Again, this also makes no sense.

It makes no sense because

YOU are freaking voting him!

Lemme get this straight. You voting Majiffy is fine but me voting there is scummy?
