Open 767: Nomination Mafia [Day 7]

[Joey_]

I dont really want to deal w/ menalque shitting on me

[RadiantCowbells]

can just vote and stop reading til day 6

[Joey_]

It wouldnt be as fun

[RadiantCowbells]

lolhammering ss was the highlight of my last game

[Joey_]

If you knew man, i used to never play seriously and just seek drama/hilarious scenarios, including qh at every opportunity or so

[RadiantCowbells]

i was a pretty awful person to play mafia with.

[RadiantCowbells]

ppl wouldn't have written off how awful i was to play with if i wasn't running around with an 100% scum winrate and stuff.

[Joey_]

Its okay, you have your moments

[RadiantCowbells]

you should vote

[RadiantCowbells]

God Norwegian are you just always scummy or are you actually scum this game?

oh yeah

speaking of menalque/norway

[RadiantCowbells]

Hmm, creature could be scum here

This will be a deeply boring 1v1 that i guess I’ll prob lose if he is

Creature I can’t tell how genuine your SR on me is but I think you’re trying to marginalise me atm

Also you’re active here in a way that I haven’t seen you be before and I think I’ve only played with town!you so far so that’s kinda pinging me too

By which I mean I think you’re trying to control the game here and I don’t think I’ve seen you do that as town

Where can I find a couple of recent scumgames of yours?

how he reacted to creature pushing him as scum. should be very familiar. turns around and calls creature scum for voting him.

[RadiantCowbells]

Because I think you’re pretty much cleared on D1 interactions and play, and I think I’m p much cleared on D2 interactions and play. Which is why I want anyone who has worries about me (other than what is close to being pushingouted scum, lol pk) to get them out there today because, again, I think this game is close to pre-won if joey is town and we collectively agree that joey and I are town

Let's lynch RC and win this one for the homies?

[RadiantCowbells]

btw the first time I read that I had weird flashbacks to Enter's post in that game. it was the original reason for my Menalque scumread. my read became a lot more fleshed out when i focused on Titus later

[RadiantCowbells]

it's really hard for me to leave the thread and just let this lie

[RadiantCowbells]

i'm tired and sick and i still just wanna sit here throwing words at menalque or something

[RadiantCowbells]

That's pretty wild. My vote is still for GL/Suji today.

Want to hear a less game related take that I just realized?

Everyone knows the best part of being scum is that you don't have to worry about having accurate reads. Sure feels good just pushing agenda and just BSing reasons that sound plausible. When I first heard this it sure made me feel less happy to roll town.

But today when reading menalque's posts about me, I realized the best part of being town is that you will get townread for things you didn't see coming or plan ahead of time, and it feels great. So much better then when you get townread as mafia for things you planned.

Yeah it kinda sucks that everyone in the lynchpool is literally incapable of towntelling because 1 more town would have instantly solved this game

take some more obvtown Awoo posts

[RadiantCowbells]

I feel like this is another game where I get 1-2 scum and completely miss the last one, only this time there’s no vig around to get the last one

It’s literally happened twice before to me

And again, I think that after one more scum flip this game is basically auto. It’s just lynching scum by PoE until we get to, worst case scenario, you, me and one more.

like he's even making posts foreshadowing the fact that the game's gonna get to lylo with him still alive, it's just really obvious and i don't understand the failure to see it from GL et al.
like, there's nothing that he does that is a particularly hard post to make as scum. idg why people tr people like this. it's all very shoshin-y to me.

[RadiantCowbells]

No offense, but those reads are hilariously surface level. I mean i'm glad you're townreading me, but you should probably put a little bit more effort into it before TR or SR someone?

Do you think that this is an actual townie who scumreads Cirno's slot's response to someone coming in saying that they were town for the E V E R Y T H I N G !
Like, they would call them scum for that. There's no sorting in this post, town doesn't say "you should probably put a little bit more effort into it before TR or SR someone?" when their SR says something dumb.
they call them scum for the dumb thing.

[RadiantCowbells]

I think you’re fairly erratic right now. Are you really sure about this?

Didn’t you scumread me tho? And now you want me to join you on Mena?

Ah, ok.

RC's replacement in a nutshell:

Spoiler:

Like... i've seen your play in Vengeance as scum and i know what you're capable of. So i don't think it's completely unreasonable to suspect you're trying to push for a mislynch here RC.

Well yeah, but town only posted like 5 times in 8 days. So you were 10 times as active compared to them.

I don't know about you, but i usually try to avoid having a recognizable scum or town meta. That way people can't just go "ah, he is X in this game". You trying to describe how you would "never do X as scum" in a game kinda sounds like something scum would say TBH.

Unless you're going to argue that we should lynch outside of you/Menalque today then it's kinda a given that i'll have to choose to believe one of you.

Ok cool, i'm not going to spend my entire day arguing with you.
I choose to believe Menalque over you and i find your push super weird and scummy.
VOTE: RC

Also I don't think scum RC would say "treat me as confirmed scum if this flips town" because he knows people will actually listen to that compared to other people saying the same.

That's what he wants you to think.

I doubt that anyone here necessarily has the willpower to go toe-to-toe with him tomorrow where he’s conf!scummed after my lynch and I’m worried that he’ll wriggle out of it somehow

@RC
Sorry to say, but i'm not scum. I just never particularly scumread Menalque so i don't see why i should do it now.

this really obviously isn't a town's progression on my slot lol. this is someone who because scumbuddy needs to defend Menalque. there's 0 substance to their SR on me. completely devoid of meaningful statements.

[RadiantCowbells]

I've realised that this game is literally no-lose for me from a personal standpoint. I did everything I could to help town see the two openwolves. Doing that while in a 2v1 was a struggle and I think it's perfectly reasonable I lost. I think if the roles were reversed then even against you I'd have a p good chance of winning.

Hopefully town remember to actually lynch you and cirno after I flip, although not super optimistic. But fmpvo either I've nailed the scumteam or this loss is entirely your fault in the 5/100 worlds where you might be town.

and posts like this, like

he's not at all bothered to try to tell you guys to fking lynch me after he dies. townies in this situation are usually screaming from the rooftop to kill me after they flip town.
this is the reaction of someone who knows that there is no future lynches on me, there's no increased win equity to be gained by arguing about post flip, because he's flipping scum.

[RadiantCowbells]

and suji feels like town. joey feels like town. gif feels like town. gl idk but i'm not sure he's scum especially compared to the scum slots.

let's do this!!

[chennisden]

No change to the vc lol

[chennisden]

RadiantCowbells (2): Menalque, NorwegianboyEE_
GuiltyLion (1), Joey_
DrCirno (1): GuiltyLion
Menalque (1): DrCirno

Maybe I should quote this

[RadiantCowbells]

I've even given you the plan

Relying on townreads shared by Joey who no one SRs and Suji who can townblock later

For how to play around a townflip and win regardless of whether I'm town or scum.

Either Cirno is my buddy and that's easy to play around after i'm massively discredited by this flip or he's not and my slot was in fact obvtown

Oh

VOTE: Menalque
