No.... your "schadd 3 rvs lynches" case is moonlogic (to US anyway), no matter how much you try and explain it
also no offense, I just find the term to be funny :P

MAYBE it does to you: I'll give you the benefit of the doubt as your first game's RVS stage went completely differently, but after a few games here you'll know that it's quite easy for people to RVS someone to L-3/L-2 and for it to be more or less COMPLETELY NAI (non alignment indicative)

Also scum hunting in RVS is just funny.
Like redemption: let's have players A,B,&C be scum.
So they decide "hey, let's all try and get the player D lynch IMMEDIATELY, as soon as the game starts.".
All 3 players vote for player D.
What do you think happens next, and is this a good play?

In post 81, Gamma Emerald wrote:VOTE: MaryJoLisa
This feels like scum having trouble coming up with an entrance
That is probably the scummiest post in the game so far. It is referring to MaryJoLisa pointing out the three horsemen that actually lynched Schadd at the same time for no reason and calling it a scum entrance while she pointed out what no one had the balls to say.
Just to be clear because this whole thing originated with me. The Normal setup possibilities include informed roles (and a bunch of other shit I don't yet fully understand the nuances of). I don't know to what extent "informed" means, but it's been my experience that asking questions about what's possible *very often* results in answers like, "that can't be ruled out of the setup." Because this attribute is different than the games I'm more familiar with, I felt it perfectly reasonable to wonder if Penguin Power didn't have some information provided in his PM or other people didn't have information on Penguin Power's alignment that might lead them to sheep off his vote.

As far as I'm concerned, fire breathing, poison dart wielding unicorns could be in play and it's all good as long as it's "balanced" on the other side. (I get that this isn't a theme game. It was just an example.)

So Redemption, I didn't *see* something obvious that other people saw and they just didn't have the ovaries to say something. They probably just have a better idea of what is more likely or less likely to happen.

Will be back later tonight to reassess redemption. But I still don't see any good case against gamma other than being a lurky lou

Performer I don't have an alt but for full disclosure I played awhile ago under neko2086. That was like, over 10 years ago tho.

NM what's up? You managed to formulate a coherent question for redemption so maybe you can afford me one.

No
Also, what is Not_Mafia doing? This is some of the worst play I’ve ever seen.
I will SEARCH for games with you and N_M to help you policy him.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.

-COME ON REALLY?
Is this your first game where RVS lasts for several pages for some people and more for others?
I'm giving Redemption quite a few newb!town points, but a quick skim of your activity in other games makes it difficult to give you the same courtesy.

This is disingenuous as it depends on the information they are informed of. It doesn't always make sense for town to communicate the information they have (i.e. There is a town tracker/watcher/cop/etc in the game).

Entirely dependent on the player.

ITT: Vorkuta loses townpoints.

I asked her to put herself in a hypothetical informed!PP's shoes as a thought experiment.

But yeah ok. In that
triggered
game, I was informed that "If I targetted mafia (with my vig shot), they would die", and I literally only understood this to mean something like "there are no doctors/roleblockers" @end game.
Fair.

Also you can take your town points and shove them somewhere cold. :P

Okiedokie then. I'm not getting the townvibes off of Redemption like everyone else apparently is, but I'm not going to be able to fully sort him today either. UNVOTE:

@LUV: You still on board with the Gamma vote? If so, why?

@Psyche: you going to play or?

As of now I'll join the MJL wagon before Gamma but I'm not sold on either. We've got time to get another wagon going so howsabout VOTE: LUV. Any takers? He's contributed almost nothing of substance so far.

I'm not getting town vibes off Redemption. I don't really know what i'm getting, but they're definitely not *town* vibes.
