A Story Revisited (Anything uPick): Day 6

[Aristophanes]

This is my current read of Aristophanes:


He is scum but he is Tim Curry, and this presents a conundrum

-rh

this is how I felt the whole time You're so pleasant I don't want to scumread you, and yet...

That was a great post! I'd forgotten about it, but it was great XD

Thanks Krazy! <3

[Lady Angel]

Good game, everyone. It was fun playing with you all, and for most of you it was the first time, too. Nice meeting everyone!

[Firebringer]

So absolutely, yes.
I felt that conftowning people who were my planned fucking nightkills anyway (for instance, I almost got a chance to conftown Jingle...which would have been perfect for getting him out of the game because there was literally no player better on strength-of-play for me to use my strongman on overall) was a QUITE good usage of my role.

If you're confto

No it wasn’t lol

[Firebringer]

Like u conftown players who were going to be lynched and then night killed them and say “well I deprived town info and lynches” you also forced ur self down a path of denying actually good kills

U gave town way more by producing the conf town than they lost with no lynchesz
And it also forced ur kills.

Like the only way this play makes sense is if ur going down some apathy style where everyone gives up and just lets you win

[Firebringer]

This was by far the worst scum strategy I have seen

[Aristophanes]

I mean, I strongly considered NKing her...

[Firebringer]

Ur memes were good ari

[Aristophanes]

Ur memes were good ari

<3 <3

[Vecna]

Am I being wrong here or did town actually not mislynch a single player due to Mastina's role/usage?

Also Jingle, why make that claim up on lady Angel while u didnt get a result? Or did you interpret it for her not going anywhere instead of a no result? You had me like, feeling all responsible n shit to stop your evil.

[profii]

My PM was confusing and said I'd respawn after 4 phases (or something)

Everyone thought I wouldn't die so I just thought it was best to plead ignorant and not clarify that - I saw some people say they didn't want to know either so haha I just cruised

[Vecna]

Im just happy u were there so we could continue the game semi-properly. All the replace-outs really put a damper on this game (and I dont really believe all of that can be blamed on Mastina's role design).

[Jingle]

I legitimately misread a pm at 2 in the morning and didn’t bother going back to double check myself.

I might have been half asking this since Firebringer neighborized me.
Also feel free to release that RC.

Also, mastina’s role messing up the game isn’t rc’s fault. Give someone a mafia doctor and it’s not your fault if they stop all the night kills for towncred.

[Jingle]

Release neighborhood and halfassimg. Sorry, p drunk atm.

[Gamma Emerald]

Was very weird getting Shiro as a role lol. In Supp I was Firebringer and I ended up liking Firebringer once I actually played with him. Now I kinda wanna play with Shiro to see what she's like in game lol.

Nero, thanks for "correcting" my read on Wheme I'm assuming you were gated?

Creature, always a pleasure solving these large messes with you.

Vecna, Jingle, Lady Angel, jjh, nice meeting you all this game. Definitely appreciated all the work you did in sorting the crazy night actions Jingle

Aristophanes, Varsoon, Nicorobin, Mastina, Wheme, thanks for putting up such a fight

Maybe you should do what mastina does and just submit mafiascummers as your picks all the time

[Krazy]

Maybe you should do what mastina does and just submit mafiascummers as your picks all the time

I mean I've never picked a role since I've only replaced into upicks lol

[NicoRobin]

Maybe next time you'll listen to me when I said you should lynch mastina pre-emptively. If she wasn't lynched, we would have won.

That said, it wasn't in the plan for her to actually get lynched.

[Varsoon]

You can release PTs, it's whatever.

This was by far the worst scum strategy I have seen

I agree. I replaced in and we were already knee-deep in a strat that I saw no chance of victory from. I tried to make the most of it.
Not enthused about how this game was handled on all sides of the bat.
I was hoping a turbo-bus might buy us the WIFOM we needed but, really, the results being unanimously against us in my private voter was good indicator of how up shit creek we were.
RC--don't modkill slots when your rules don't say you wouldn't do that. If I were listmod, you'd be docked modding experience at least for that kind of stunt.

[Varsoon]

EBWOP: When your rules don't say you'd do that.
Rules as written, inactive slots would be force-replaced here.
You modkilling them without adequate warning constitutes game-compromising modplay, especially given that players started ignoring lurker slots entirely because they'd flip via modkill anyway.

[northsidegal]

funnily enough my reads got way better after i stopped trying hard

[Nero Cain]

good job you guys.

Scum played rather horribly but at the same time they seemed pretty underpowered. IDK

[Nero Cain]

I couldn't kill n1 and I could only kill the bottom 5 posters from the previous day phase. My only regret is that I should have killed Mastina.

[Varsoon]

I agree that our powers weren't amazing. I think we would have had a better shot if we had played them differently, for sure.

[Varsoon]

iirc, a good deal of our kills outright failed, too.

[Vecna]

Yeah if a town openly starts asking for their pinball machine to be repaired, itd be kinda nice if ur not bogged down in having to kill your own created townclears.

[Varsoon]

The hilarious thing is that the role doesn't even make townclears.
It's just a gladiator role from a town PoV unless the user tilts that it's non-loyal.
Mastina just decided, for some reason, we were better off with her running the game
But that created so much game apathy that, combined with Mastina's own frequent absences, people weren't going to let that fly.
