Mini Normal 2044: Game over!

[Irrelephant11]

yeah this game is way too quiet
Garmr who's never scum here? Maybe we just PoE the lynch

Sorry, someone please remind me what AtE and PoE mean?

Creature comes in and basically just writes that no one knows what they are doing, with very little evidence except a few quotes cherry picked from here or there, and people start unvoting?

I sense that some players are just waiting to sheep Creature because he's Creature? Like I've never played with this person before or even heard of him, there's no way I'm doing that personally. Even if I did know him, I still wouldn't do it. That's just stupid because whatever town feel you think you are reading from his play could easily be faked.

Appeal to Emotion
Process of Elimination

I have played with town Creature a few times, and while this isn't stellar play from him so far, it's definitely enough for me to not want to lynch him right now
Also if you aren't familiar with his play how do you know that the town feel I get from his posts could be easily faked

I want to add a lot of people underestimate creature and think he falls under the easy read category I won't make that mistake.

[skitter30]

I don't have someone particular in mind, and I make any post I want.

ok, and i can scumread you for making them
that post read to me like you were shading bji for pushing your slot
you're saying it wasn't made for any particular purpose, which seems kinda odd to me, and the context looks scummy to me

==

i don't really want to talk about politics in a mafia game tbh

Well, I don't want to talk about politics in the us politics thread

if i wanted to talk about politics i'd post in the us politics thread

==

Do you actually want to lynch Tex? Because it doesn't sound like you do. If you wanted to lynch him, a modkill should be just as good from your perspective; maybe even better. Because:

i don't really want a slot to be modkilled; it kinda ruins the integrity of the game imo

==

OK, thanks, I really did not understand your initial post -- I actually thought you might be throwing the game out of frustration with the mod.

No. And I know no one knows me on this site. But that is one of my biggest peeves. I honestly just needed a few days to take care of the things that I needed to do in real life without having to worry about possibly fighting off a wagon. I don't want to be a distraction for anyone let alone the players with my alignment. I havent had an issue except in this game. And it really seems like from one player. Just seems like to push when someone is known to be gone isn't very townish. Now I have to get some sleep. There are things I need to do in the am in preparation of the most beautiful girl in the world coming home for the first time.

i think that's fair; i think you can be pushed a little more so that you give some more reads/thoughts on the game
but i don't think it needs to happen *right now*; it can wait a few irl days until you have more time for this imo

i think i'm voting you?
UNVOTE:

also congrats!!!!!!!!!

==

You can if you want. Your vote would be L-1

That's why I asked. Pressure is good. But I didn't want it set up for someone to quick hammer them. Sorry I don't remember off hand the term that is used on this site.

yes, let's not end the day yet; ther's a slot that's literally done nothing

==

congratulations reaper!

the AtE is working, I'll VOTE: creature and see how that goes

i thought you were townreading him yesterday?

==

congratulations reaper!

the AtE is working, I'll VOTE: creature and see how that goes

What are you expecting to happen?

For the mod to confirm my alignment out of nowhere?

???
this feels like shade?
voting someone can prompt them to act in ai ways, making them easier to read
and how other people respond provides info both then and later in the game

like why are you saying the bolded? you know how wagoning people works and why other players may want to do that ...?

==

d) i don't townread creature which is low-key worrying

Then there's this crappy shade

that's not shade; that's comparing your play here o the last time you repped into a game i was in
there i was able to townread you pretty much immediately (or at least after you caught up)
here i'm not, and i find this worrying given last time

==

Okay great this is town creature
VOTE: bji

why is this town!creature?
why are you voting bji?

not sheep him really
he has a rep of being really good at obvtowning when he's town

irrel seems to think he's met that threshold? i don't think he has yet

[Irrelephant11]

I will withhold my Creature thoughts for a bit

I'm voting Bji for a reason

[Creature]

like why are you saying the bolded? you know how wagoning people works and why other players may want to do that ...?

As far as I know voting someone and saying "let's see where it goes" isn't that effective.

[Creature]

that's not shade; that's comparing your play here o the last time you repped into a game i was in
there i was able to townread you pretty much immediately (or at least after you caught up)
here i'm not, and i find this worrying given last time

Maybe because I was since the start there? Maybe because it had more players there? Maybe because the players were more fun there?

[Creature]

Whatever, 9-players games are starting to be more horrible

[Creature]

Seems like some inverse Malthus' theory, replacing food with number of players and population with open-mindedness

it was a 9player micro that you replaced into on page7 that also had a fair amount of lurking

[Creature]

Did it have Ausuka and Umlaut?

[skitter30]

like why are you saying the bolded? you know how wagoning people works and why other players may want to do that ...?

As far as I know voting someone and saying "let's see where it goes" isn't that effective.

sometimes it is

i didn't like the followup question of 'do you expect the mod to confirm my alignment' because you and he both know that's not how it works and you're kinda like undermining the notion of pressure votes

[skitter30]

Did it have Ausuka and Umlaut?

yes

[Creature]

and you're kinda like undermining the notion of pressure votes

Garmr wanted to hammer me

[Creature]

Did it have Ausuka and Umlaut?

yes

That's right

There were plenty of readable players there and I easily pegged scumteam + 1 town D1.

[skitter30]

and you're kinda like undermining the notion of pressure votes

Garmr wanted to hammer me

you said it in response to irrel's vote

Did it have Ausuka and Umlaut?

yes

That's right

There were plenty of readable players there and I easily pegged scumteam + 1 town D1.

and? why does that explain why i was able to townread you there but i'm not townreading you here?

[bji]

Also if you aren't familiar with his play how do you know that the town feel I get from his posts could be easily faked

Because any posting style that would lead you to a conclusion that he is town in like 10 posts is easily faked. It only takes 10 posts' worth of work apparently.

Also it's impossible for someone to be so easily town read just on style unless their scum game is terrible. Because then one could easily know when creature was scum because he wouldn't be playing this easy to read town style. Of course if he could then fake that easy to read town style, then my point above would be proven.

Whatever, 9-players games are starting to be more horrible

Are large games more fun? I wondered if I was was to join another small or large one next game. Do you have to be much better?

[Creature]

and? why does that explain why i was able to townread you there but i'm not townreading you here?

Because I didn't need much effort to solve the game there?

[Creature]

You probably need to know who to trust. If you happen to townread someone and that someone is pretty confident someone else is town, you should consider townreading that someone else too.

[bji]

What exactly is the difference between 15 sentences scattered over 15 posts and a 15 sentence wall? I can't see any ...

[skitter30]

Also it's impossible for someone to be so easily town read just on style unless their scum game is terrible. Because then one could easily know when creature was scum because he wouldn't be playing this easy to read town style. Of course if he could then fake that easy to read town style, then my point above would be proven.

he has a reputation for having an awful scumgame
(although in recent months it's gotten better; i think he just won 3way lylo as scum)

==

and? why does that explain why i was able to townread you there but i'm not townreading you here?

Because I didn't need much effort to solve the game there?

so you're saying i was able to townread easily there because you didn't need to effort to solve that game, but since this game requires more effort you aren't able to towntell as easily here?

[bji]

I will withhold my Creature thoughts for a bit

I'm voting Bji for a reason

I disagree
how about talking to me?

[bji]

Do you actually want to lynch Tex? Because it doesn't sound like you do. If you wanted to lynch him, a modkill should be just as good from your perspective; maybe even better. Because:

i don't really want a slot to be modkilled; it kinda ruins the integrity of the game imo

Fair enough; one of my only two losses came from a modkill, and I guess I'm ambivalent about them now as a result. If I'm going to lose to them, then I don't mind if they help me out either. This is assuming that a Tex death would be good for town; and I think it would.

[bji]

Oh right, you think I have a decent chance of flipping scum, but others don't.

Others don't have a decent chance of flipping scum?

Or others don't think you have a decent chance of flipping scum?

Which did you mean?

Also my lynch won't give any info if everybody goes like "let's lynch creature for info"

But not

everybody

will say that. I've never once seen a unanimous wagon. The dissention itself will provide info won't it?

[Creature]

Which did you mean?

The latter lol
