Open 753: Nomination Mafia [Game Over!]

[scum reading]

Volxen just hard claimed double voter.
There is no role and this is an open setup. Scum claim?

Me? I am a level 4 town, levelling is hard tbh, difficult way to get to game master

[Vedith]

I'm so confused.

[scum reading]

Are you town though Vedith?

I will consider who to vote for, I have conflicting thoughts, I don't know whether or not a scum might be on this nomination. I wanted to vote Volxen because my case was that there are 3 towns nominated, so volxen would've been the easiest vote because of his lack of activity, but now I have to consider Volxen's case and figure if this was a wifom or not, the mind games

[scum reading]

I'm so confused.

Why?

[volxen]

I have Alozno(RadiantCowbells) as 100% locktown now due to the way that RC replaced out. His frustration with GrandWazoo and the game in general seemed genuine, and there is no reason for him to replace out like that as scum after successfully pushing through his first mislynch. So I consider his slot confirmed town at this point.

With that in mind, I believe that a large part of scum’s strategy on day one was to try and discredit and antagonize town!RC. DoubtingThomas and Clemency spent most of day one doing just that, and throughout most of day one or both of them were voting for RC:

What a strong start

Clemenc‬y seems to be ruffling his feathers.

DoubtingThomas and RadiantCowbells are staring at each other intensely.

Hurry up my dearies
Let the feathers fly
Let the fun begin!

Let’s take a closer look at the Blue Orpington chicken, Shoshin, one of last season’s winners and according to our audience, the most likely chicken to win this round as well!

With that incredible number of feathers and powerful muscles, no wonder no one was able to beat her last round.
She’s standing in the middle of the arena proudly and looking at the others with a challenging spark in her eye. No other contestant has dared to approach her yet!

Let’s speak with one of our regulars.

• “Hello Willson, you're with us since the business started and seem to know a lot about cockfights... Would you mind sharing some of your thoughts with us? Who do you think has the highest chances to win?”
  
• “Honestly, it’s hard to tell. The battle has only just started, but if I were to bet, it’d probably be on the Scots Grey chicken, volxen.”
  
• “Not on Shoshin?”
  
• “No, definitely not. While it’s true that she was one the last season’s winners, luck played a big part in her victory back then and I don’t think it will help her here. Besides, the chickens in this round seem a lot more aggressive than in the previous ones, so it's just unlikely for such a big and easily noticeable specimen to be able to retain their strength until the last round."
  
• “I see, that’s an interesting opinion. Thank you for your commentary.”

I mean yes. Oops

[Vedith]

Why?

Because people are responding and quoting my posts and it doesn't make sense?

[Vedith]

His frustration with GrandWazoo and the game in general seemed genuine

AtE is always NAI

[volxen]

So reads wise this is what I am the most confident about:

A)

At least one of {Auro, Irrelephant} is scum

due to me nominated against two heavily townread players (Shoshin and Irrelephant), and this kind of scum play only makes sense coming from someone who is very familiar with my meta (Auro and/or Irrelephant).

B)

At least one of {DoubtingThomas, Clemency} is scum

due to the fact that they both spent most of day one antagonizing and trying to discredit RadiantCowbells (who I have as locktown due to the way in which he replaced out), and throughout most of the day one or both of them were voting for him, with both of them voting for him at the end of the day.

Since there is a very high likelihood of a town lynch today, I don't think we should end the day early. Regardless of who is lynched today, I want to have ample time to thoroughly sort between both {Auro, Irrelephant} and {DoubtingThomas, Clemency}, as I am convinced beyond any doubt that there is scum among both groups.

[Clemency]

alonzo's not locktown are you daft

Hi Clem

howdy

[volxen]

His frustration with GrandWazoo and the game in general seemed genuine

AtE is always NAI

Vedith this isn't just about "AtE", it's about looking at RC's replace out in the context of the game state at the end of day one. RC is known as an excellent scum player. If he was scum he just pulled off his first mislynch against GrandWazoo, and even though he was wrong he wouldn't have really looked that bad for leading the wagon on GrandWazoo due to how GW played on day one. There is literally ZERO reason for scum!RC to replace out in the manner that he did after getting GW mislynched.

On the other hand, look at it from the perspective of town!RC. He's nearly 100% confident that GW is scum because of his play, and because GW wrote posts (from RC's perspective) that looked like he

KNEW

RC was town, i.e. RC felt that GW wrote posts that looked like he had scum knowledge and knew his alignment because of that. Then it turns out that GW was town, and RC gets annoyed because in his opinion, GW was writing his posts as if he KNEW RC was town, but at the same time was pushing him as a scumread and voting for him. So RC incorrectly locked in GW as scum, when in reality there was just an inadvertent disconnect between how GW was writing his posts (like he KNEW RC was town) and what he was actually doing (pushing RC as a scumread and voting for him). So RC got annoyed over that and replaced out, because he basically felt like GW was responsible for his own mislynch.

[Clemency]

wait shit now i look scummy

[Clemency]

ignore that point but all i'm saying is rc replaces out a bunch

[volxen]

ignore that point but all i'm saying is rc replaces out a bunch

And I'm saying that in the context of this game, the way he replaced out only makes sense if he is town.

In any case, I said that I was confident that

at least one

of you or DoubtingThomas is scum, not that you are both necessarily scum together. Do you not see a world where DoubtingThomas is scum?

[Clemency]

i townread dt right now

[Clemency]

but anyone can be scum
i'm never 100% on anyone

[volxen]

but anyone can be scum
i'm never 100% on anyone

Alright so you don't agree with me that Alonzo/RadiantCowbells should be treated as a locktown slot, but are you actually still scumreading that slot? If so, why? Doesn't all of RC's day one play make sense from a town point of view?

Why do you find DoubtingThomas towny?

[DoubtingThomas]

sup this weekend is kinda hell for me.

i am kinda glad i am not on the nominations. hoping for this day phase to last as long as it reasonably can so i can slow down with the game and focus on irl stuff

[DoubtingThomas]

irrel was my strongest townie out of the 3. volxen's long posts and a really good effort to solve the game so far looks good on him, the only problem is his absence in d1. Him upping his game is good, but maybe he prepared this to thunderdome his way against (potentially two townies)

as for RC, his replace out to me makes it kinda hard for me to think that comes from a scum slot in that situation. i am not sure if a prideful scum player like RC would be replacing out like that in this situation as he just did hmm. Perhaps not "locktown" but not up for a lynch for a long time

@clemency, RC has done this as scum before, tho? Do you remember which game?
