TemporalLich's Grand Idea [Game Over]

[Flea The Magician]

I also get the worst vibes of the 4 from magnus

This is the face of madness

I have a cute face of madness though

I will only join your cult if we worship the great old ones

Even then, I'd probably rather just worship them on my own time. They don't seem like sticklers for organized religion.

Congratulations is in order to the following players:

Raya, Cook, unwnd, Korina, and Angry Birds!

The last player is special because of penguin_alien and her much anticipated return! You group of five are my group of FAST FRIENDS - while I will skim most posts in this game, your posts I will hang on every word and assume every argument you make is in good faith and support you where appropriate! All except for Angry Birds were selected randomly, and your special status will only last for one game Day. This status only extends to the Nacho hydra head (the one posting now) - Spiffeh is a loose cannon that I cannot control.

~Spiffy

Spiffeh is probably scum, so I'd let him fly loose myself.

Of your list I like Cook the least at present (page six as I type, catching up now). Who's townish: Toogaloo and Magnus V. Waiting for Nachohead to go to the mats on a townread for an obvscum player before I give him a town read myself. (all love, no hate)

...and Angry head spilled my town reads already. I feel so useless.

penguin thinks Toog and Magnus are town.

Why? I find that penguin rarely operates on gut and I'd love to hear the reasoning for her first reads post-hiatus.

~Spiffy

Well, first off, I have absolutely no idea how I operate these days, since my mental state is massively different than four and eight years ago. Hell, for all you know, I swiped some of Cabd's stash JUST FOR THIS GAME. But given a) Grand Idea and b) 14:7, I'm assuming multi-ball with 3-5 factions, which means town hunting is way more useful to me than scum hunting until we get some flips going. But in skimming at work on Friday, I liked Magnus's reaction to unwnd's play and Toogaloo's entrance plus their engagement with unwnd's claim felt pro-town.

Catch-up continues; if anyone's around and wants me to address anything in real time, sing out.

I just PM'd the mod and activated my

census taker

There is currently two scum on Korina's wagon

Discuss

Can you claim your role this just seems like bs after looking at the roles that have census abilities

Why would you want him to claim if you think he's full of it? Assume he's lying; does this lie come from town or scum in your view?

266 makes me want to townread the hell out of Disney Princesses. Liking NDMath here. Can't tell if I'm scumreading dsjstr for the 'bad logic = scum' thing that used to lead me down the garden path so readily or if there's something rotten there.

also what does everyone think abt a d1 massclaim? I think this guarantees we catch out AT LEAST 1 scum with a bad claim.

i was mulling it over during work and think itd be a good move.
-koba

I've spectated mass claim go very poorly for town recently, but I see the appeal. My concern is that maybe we nail a scum to the wall from it, but then all the scum have a field night with the info. Which could go very badly for town very quickly, since I'm assuming about half the town roles here are pretty much completely useless at best. How do you see Day Two and beyond being impacted post-mass claim?

[samantha97]

normally I'd support d1 massclaim but there's so much more that can go wrong in grand idea than normal

[Disney Princesses]

@Angry Birds The posts you quoted were from Nacho not me so blame him if you scum read us

~Spiffy

[Flea The Magician]

Huh, just reread what I've actually posted in this game so far...

how the tuna sammich did unwnd get that kinda feel for me on that little information o.o

[dsjstr]

Your unwnd logic is that his first post claim doesn't exist, therefore he is scum.

o7

I think his post was intended to get people to fight with each other because unless someone can find a role where Wind could have looked at a specific wagon with a census he lied. He has not said anything and instead is allowing people to continue to push people from that fake scum pool.

[dsjstr]

In some vaguely serious shitposting...

Expand on your read on me dsj. I know why koba is reading me as they are, I wanna know why you're reading me as you are

o7

I don't remember reading you

[row][cell]Bell[/cell][cell]: I worry that he's scum this game. I see the writing on the wall, but not enough to push it yet.[/cell][/row]

Talk to me about this? I've peripherally watched quite a few Bell games, but it's very different to me reading as a spectator versus being invested as a player, so I'm assuming a certain level of competence and not much else as a baseline.

[row][cell]NDMath[/cell][cell]: Hello. I don't know how to read you.[/cell][/row]

NDMath seems quite town to me--what are you finding difficult to read?

It's not really fear. The way I would describe my worry is that Bell has cooked everyone a familiar meal. There is nothing obstructive in their posts, yet it still gives off a foul odor.

Reading his ISO straight through has a lot of noise. Kind of slippery when I look for something to follow up on. Don't disagree.

claims are limited - it'd be a simple matter to see who faked theirs
-koba

[Rebel Radio]

also why are people ignoring the fact that pooky literally has claimed notTown?

[samantha97]

claims are limited - it'd be a simple matter to see who faked theirs
-koba

there's almost 10,000 roles wat

[Rebel Radio]

and not everyone has the patience to wade through roles / claim well - we can quite easily sift out at least 1 fake claimer

[samantha97]

I agree that I don't think 100% of fakeclaims would hold up, but there are op roles that snowball with information

[Flea The Magician]

Just gunna say I am solidly against it, but happy to go with it if people decide its good.

[Rebel Radio]

I agree that I don't think 100% of fakeclaims would hold up, but there are op roles that snowball with information

and town holds 14 of them that can work out for us.

[samantha97]

I support it for day 2 and if a majority of people here support it for day 1 then I will join in too

"Limited"

Yea, we're only limited to 9900+ roles! Suuuper limiting.

you think every player at this table that might have rolled scum is going to read through all of them? plus theres town roles that are literally self clearing if anything, or pseudo self clearing.

You forget that people can literally claim to be the town version of their scum role and they could probably find justification for it in the thread afterwards.

[Particularly Stupid]

you don't have to read the entire thread for a fakeclaim just turn to a random page and find one

[Rebel Radio]

and when their behavior doesnt match up with the role theyre claiming - theres ur scum.
