Xenoblade 2 Mafia: Game Over

[Flavor Leaf]

Maria and LLD are my two strongest scum reads as of now.

Unwnd is hatcheting noted.

[Brian Skies]

I said I would hammer you.

Well, this is quite the dilemma.

[unwnd]

Motherfucker I will axe you, forget about hatcheting

[SirCakez]

What is hatcheting

[Dunnstral]

I don't think Noraa is scummy for their play

What do you think they're scummy for then?

I don't think they're scummy...

[Flavor Leaf]

Man I really hate Flavor Leaf's posting please someone tell me why he's townread he's so full of himself

FL being egotistical is an FL thing. He likes to point at everyone in the list and call it scum so he can claim the correct solve in the endgame. Just ignore him.
-spin

Severe misread of my playstyle will eventually wreck ya

[Flavor Leaf]

What is hatcheting

Scum discredit chop chop chop attempts to keep momentum down

[Flavor Leaf]

Motherfucker I will axe you, forget about hatcheting

What do you think a hatchet is?

[MariaR]

Man I really hate Flavor Leaf's posting please someone tell me why he's townread he's so full of himself

Na his narrative is dreadfully obvious even more so if you think about it from a Wolf Cakez POV. I shouldn't need to go into details on this though.

This gives me slight assurance about you

No need to worry friend~

Well now that you've used the tilde I'm worried again...

Can't you just townread me from game start like I do you without fail for once? You're breaking my heart

[Brian Skies]

@Brian - I think we’re correct in regards to LLD, but I don’t have faith in us being able to push it through.

Rip Day 1 LLD Dream-wagon.

To be fair, I was never expecting it to happen over Cakez anyway.

Man I really hate Flavor Leaf's posting please someone tell me why he's townread he's so full of himself

is being full of himself scummy? i like the way he's looking at things even if some of it is a little out there. recent posts where he was looking at peoples' trajectory on cakez was good, an eye for big picture stuff, what people are doing as the game progresses. you keep mentioning some dislike of him that seems almost entirely based in stylistic issues and never crosses the bridge to scum

[Bell]

I learned recently that scum equity was a term in professional poker and that it had nothing to do with stocks btw.

So I was wrong. It means the probability of a hand winning, so high scum equity = high chance of them flipping scum.

[unwnd]

I dunno FL, I think if you had your way you'd just say 'hey man I'm wrong and I was just doin' me' and everyone would just be like slurp slurp slurp yes yes of course it makes perfect sense

[Bell]

That was @April.

UNVOTE:
VOTE: Cakez

Important Role Related Info To Keep in Mind Before Reading

Spoiler:

I am a blade with negative town utility, and positive scum utility. My flavor hints that scum are aware I exist out there. As I am now claiming this factor, visiting me tonight is a scum claim. I am locked into driver with the first contractor... permanently. I will literally instavote you the next day, and keep my vote there forever until you night kill or mislim me.

The five names I posted are cakez, and other people who felt like they were either trying to feel out my role, or were weirdly NOT weirded out at the way I was hinting at being a driver. Except fferytammysyr. I included them for fun.

The Opening Phase

Spoiler:

Yeah Cabd is my Blade and I am a Driver we have weird role where we always have to link

This is a taylor-in-deathy-level scumclaim. This is my ability, and my flavor hints that scum is looking for me, without being specific about what they know. This is hella testing the reaction waters to see if anyone blinks. Ballsy. And technically it got me out, so... yeah?

The rest of psuedo RVS is nothing in particular that is super shiny.

Brian Skies?
More like Brian Scums

Hate this read, I know it's super early but like... Brian was transparently out the gate towning it the fuck up, ffery syr and tammy saw it from the getgo too.

Just gonna quote other early game posts that pinged weirdly:

Something is seriously wrong with the way the cake is opening this game.

I am currently driving so you're going to have to settle for the dump of voice to text but I can't place my finger on it but there's something really weird and evil in the way he's trying to be too light-hearted about this including his own wagon I really don't want this series of votes on him to get written off as RVS shenanigans I want it made explicitly clear that I have a actual genuine read that is beneath 50/50 rand on his alignment

Also you guys literally threatened to speed elim me day 1 before the game started so I don't see why you're surprised I'm not taking it super seriously

This is the start of the chain of posts where Cakez is REALLY wanting a specific casewall to argue against, but doesn't really try to intuit where I'm coming form, or argue in the general sense why he's town:

Fermis talk to me about your serious vote on me since Cabd won't

Are you hoping they convince you that you are scum or something?

I just don't get where this comes from as a town. I'd be more interested in people reading actual possible scum slots.

Hmmmmm......

I don't really understand why Cabd or them are SRing me so I'm hoping to be able to address their concerns because I'd rather work with them than against them this game

It is like... his single waking thought:

I can't wait for Cabd's wall

I see this game will continue the obnoxious trend of people SRing me without explaining why

I see this game will continue the obnoxious trend of people SRing me without explaining why

Why does that bother you?

Because I dislike being scum read in general so I usually try to argue against why people are SRing me
I can't do that if people don't explain why

Thus why I'm excited for Cabd's wall

But, yeah, I don't see this viewpoint from town on Cakez. Like, he's not going "Look at this read" it really feels like he's saying "Tell me why I'm scum!"

That is what I'm saying yes

More in this vein...

Yeah Cabd is my Blade and I am a Driver we have weird role where we always have to link

Can you explain why you made this post?

it was a joke
because in Cabd and I's last game SOMEBODY fakeclaimed mason lover doctors with scum
so i did that and then added some flavor for funsies and then people took it seriously

Like I'm tired of having kickass day one scumreads and never getting it through because other shininess.

This is my

², Zanza, Bionis Aligned Odd-Night Ability Cop, was lynched Day 1.

this is just a lie considering we got Taylo0r through in literally our last game together

You know what does not spark joy in me Cabd?
Whenever you post and it's not your casewall

Cabd there's no fucking way you're still in the drive like for covid test

Calling out this next one because it was immediately dropped and never went anywhere. At no point has it EVER felt like cakez was even remotely consitering I could be anything other than town pushing him.

I'm starting to think you're just full of shit

Back to your regularly scheduled wall fixation...

Because you know that I would be asking for a wall here regardless of alignment because I hate being pushed when people can't explain it
And you're just trying to push my buttons more now

Sorry Cabd I like you but I can't stand this playstyle and push from you

You're posting is totally insufferable rn
It's just like Alisae 2.0 where e was like "hmm look at the scum posting goo!!" And then I was town and e was all shocked but not really

Midgame Weirdness Around Noraa

Spoiler:

Pretty sure Noraa is actual scum here, guys.

Pour que?

Notably, first mention of Noraa in his ISO besides the weird NORAAAAAAAAAAAAAA callout thingie. Anyways. This goes absolutely nowhere for a loooong time.

Now the cakez wagon is very possibly going to elimination status, and it resurfaces...

the bigger discussion here is why Noraa is not giving me any town vibes at all when I usually get them from her immediately

There's a big back and forth here. It's the sequence of posts that Cobra and Flavor Leaf noted as scum theater. I tend to agree. The fixation on "specific meta from Betrayal" is super weird, like they are both trying to focus on something loud and shiny to talk over.

The back and forth gets dropepd again, cakez goes back to being all "Wall when noobs" and Noraa fades from his topics. Dare I say...

TRAJECTORY TRAJECTORY TRAJECTORY DANGER WILL ROBINSON.

Like go back and read Cakez in ISO. It's like the second he feels that theatering with Noraa isn't working, it just vanishes. Poof. Into the ether.

It then resurfaces a LOT of pages later.. here:

my BM vote is really stale and not going anywhere
VOTE: Noraa
I'd like to try this
her pop-ins yesterday were so bad
seems like she's not even trying, just complaining
which does not make for a town Noraa

Note this is his actual first time voting Noraa. Despite fixating on her, he never left the Battle Mage vote he'd made super early into the game.

Crocodile Hammer Tears

Spoiler:

Like... you either see these as being super obviously overblown and fake, or you probably disagree with all the other points I already made..

hi bork I love you

bring me sweet release

Fermis what are you hoping for I'm hammered

Bork just hasn't finished counting yet

Cuz I was at L3 then Midway and fermis revoted and then LLD hammered

Also please elim BM
I can't stand that he's acting like my push on him is the reason I'm dying

I was a Tracker Blade

Take me to the Lakes where all the poets went to die
I don't belong and, my beloved, neither do you
Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
I'm setting off, but not without my muse

FFS IM NOT DEAD

[Bell]

I dunno FL, I think if you had your way you'd just say 'hey man I'm wrong and I was just doin' me' and everyone would just be like slurp slurp slurp yes yes of course it makes perfect sense

How can you be scum reading this.

[MariaR]

Notice how FL has gone for people he considers weaker but he won't ever try pushing the bigger fish with real reasoning? It's so painful. Not my problem though since Cakez is dying.

[Will catch up later maybe]

i don't remember why i thought they were scum lol

just remember not liking some posts from them

i know one of the posts i didnt like from l dude was on the first page though, that's all i remember atm

*shrug*

i have time to read stuff prob tonight so ill look back over posts then if it matters

-Nacho

[Flavor Leaf]

@Brian - I think we’re correct in regards to LLD, but I don’t have faith in us being able to push it through.

Rip Day 1 LLD Dream-wagon.

To be fair, I was never expecting it to happen over Cakez anyway.

That’s fine. I’m okay with a Cakez wagon and end the day early.

I just think I want it on hard record that I think Cakez is gonna flip town, and i await whoever tries to push a TMI on me.

[Bell]

*Doesn't read it*

Brilliant I'm convinced.
Let's get Cakez.

[Cabd]

I didn't proofread that shit, sorry in advance for the three people who read it, not sorry in advance for the scumbutt about to go and try and make a rebuttal of it.

[REAGAN BUSH 84]

well

[Brian Skies]

Let me know when we get to E-2 so FL and I can double-hammer.

[MariaR]

Cabd would you like me to visit you so you can pick me regardless or just leave it be?

[REAGAN BUSH 84]

maybe bush will be able to catch up during the 4 day night
