Open 797: Bus Service [Game Over]

[Big Elephant]

I think mech talk is a bad way to TR people fwiw

and this is true, mech talk is the easiest thing in the world to do as scum

I mean, it's not the talk itelf that gives JV and yessiree townpoints, it's the proactivity, it's how they suggest solutions to solve this game and furthering the game out of RVS, and how they engage each other in a very genuine tone

ugh signing posts as hydra is officially my least favourite thing
not really sure what to think of prof. mafia for that vote on me as it's *something* that's game furthering, but at least it's quite a hot take given the townblock between me/JV/yessiree emerging

-shelly

[derp]

oh i dont think its scummy of the elephant to give that tr i just think its a cheap tr is all

[MiniVirgo]

Self townbloccing is kinda eh

- JV

[Not_Mafia]

Can we please get Johnny Farrar to E-1 so I can hammer?

[Big Elephant]

N_M's bold style is pretty town!AI. Scum usually don't go against the grain like that imo.

"People who have really out there reads, stick out too much, don't agree with the generally established townblock, and want to do their own thing which people don't largely agree with get lynched incredibly consistently. They also incredibly consistently flip town." - RadiantCowbells

re: self townblocking, its not really such a bad idea, im just currently identifying yessiree and JV as town and you're doing the same

I think you're the one that's shitpushing here. In my opinion, overexplanation is a scumtell and pointing that out is furthering the game.

Does anyone else see what I'm seeing here?

N_M is playing like a jester, like they usually do. I don't really get why that's a good reason to TR people.

Feels like you're randomly throwing out reads like candies here. Your trajectories to get to a TR are cheap.

Johnny/Professor Mafia/?

+1
Prof. Mafia: Big Elephant is scummy for being agreeable (which 1. is a misrep and 2. even if true, is a personality trait)
--
Me: makes TRs on people
Prof. Mafia: that's bad

Town
JV

Hello students, I'm your Professor of Mafia.

Step 1: Random Voting Stage: VOTE: Sando

In my opinion, not much to be gained from any of this. All the voting mod nonsense is anti-town.

I haven't ever played this setup (it's a mutantdevle one though so probably has some deeper gimmick)
+1 to hypoclaiming though.

I hate your gimmick.

[ManWithNoName]

Can we please get Johnny Farrar to E-1 so I can hammer?

Who is Johnny Farrar?

[ManWithNoName]

Also, what is Johnny Farrar? Why is Johnny Farrar?

N_M, just lay on me all the whos whats wheres whys and hows of Johnny Farrar.

[ManWithNoName]

so are u townreading the mod?

I lol'd.

Sup people, first game in a few years, I promise to be more chill than before I left.

VOTE: Sesq

Sando has requested replacement.

I like this more chill Sando.

[JohnnyFarrar]

Y'all breaking my heart

Hypo-claiming is where we say who we would hypothetically bus or cop before the night starts, yeah? I've not heard that terminology before. If that's the case I don't know if I'd reconvene cop hypo claim just because I don't want cop to out themselves prematurely

[ManWithNoName]

Hypo claiming is where you claim that you're going to get sick because you can just feel it and you definitely need to go get a test because you probably have cancer.

[JohnnyFarrar]

Also

@mod - v/la until Wednesday, in hospital for kidney stone removal

I'll prolly be able to post as normal but JIC

[JohnnyFarrar]

know if I'd recommend* cop hypo

I agree with this

[JohnnyFarrar]

Big Elephant is sounding increasingly scummy, I think the TR on MiniVirgo is a deep pocket, and they're just generally agreeing with stuff and throwing out forced reads instead of solving.

I think mech talk is a bad way to TR people fwiw

VOTE: Big Elephant

I shittily try to end RVS but THIS gets no vote? /salty

VOTE: ProfMaf

[yessiree]

it should be fairly easy to see that not agreeing with hypoclaiming or trying to undermine its efforts is anti-town, or even scum motivated might I add

especially since this setup has never been played before, it's like preferring to drive blind

this is misinformed btw
you're confusing setup/role spec in

[yessiree]

Dont agree with Prof Mafia's take on big elephant since big ele looks to come from a solvey mindset

that said, I do agree with him that manwithnoname's over-explaination in RVS is scummy, since he then proceeds to not contribute anything valuable afterwards

[yessiree]

dont think anyone can read N_M here, but he will sort himself out with time

still waiting for more people to settle in, I'm expecting great things from A50

I just like to have fun, scum.

VOTE: yessiree

Let me explain this vote to be because you aren't allowing me to have fun.
