Mini 2228: Isekai uPick - Endgame

[Gamma Emerald]

Hey,

Rhiannon playing this game. How fortunate for you, not so fortunate for us, I suppose.

Our role is a trashheap pure negative utility role. I begin the game brainwashed. At night, the scum may use me to perform their night kills.

Oh, and I have the town win condition but thankfully I've been told that I don't count towards the Mafia despite being brainwashed, so that's good at least.

This is a full claim besides my character name which I will happily provide if asked.

My hopes have been dashed against the shores of reality.

Kyouko/Gamma/Cabd/Kate

That's where the scum is.

Kyouko/Gamma/Cabd/Kate

That's where the scum is.

[Dunnstral]

While noble, I'm not sure reading the entire game is entirely necessary

[Dunnstral]

VOTE: Toogeloo

Their openers as town are usually more distinct, from experience, and tend to relate to their own role or the actual game. Here they talk about the delay but that is it.

How is the delay not “the actual game”? Do you mean something to do with the theme?

The delay in the game starting.

. I begin the game brainwashed.

At night, the scum may use me to perform their night kills.

Oh, and I have the town win condition but thankfully I've been told that I don't count towards the Mafia despite being brainwashed, so that's good at least.

Is there any indication on how to remove the brainwashing? If you

begin the game

brainwashed, there is a chance you can break the brainwashing, no?

I had figured it was something she knew about based on that phrasing, that’s why I said I was hopeful; her clarification that it was a full claim busted that theory.

[Gamma Emerald]

Likelihood of Rhia lying about role is zero

JJH adding negative utility to town to fux with them also decently high

Binned

I can probably support this motion

[Gamma Emerald]

I'm not sure why you are already sorting this early, unless you're really excited about something

I have feelings and thoughts but nothing that has left my drafts, mostly

I am excited. This is a game with flavor I love to hate to love and that is directly impacting my willingness to throw caution to the wind. I'm a little soured about the screwover tho.

Plus, haver you SEEN what happens when I hold myself back and let paranoia and self doubt clog me up?

It ends with a random ass peta alt styling on me while I tunnel Town Pooky to death.

DAMN, peta been putting on a clinic recently apparently

[Gamma Emerald]

Vote: Toogaloo

Actually scum. I wasn't sure before, the opening was bad but the impassioned plea was good.

But that's kind of mask off paranoia creation at inception that scum does to reduce confidence in town reads.

This is some next level reading I can’t begin to comprehend rn. Would you like to break this down for simple old me? You can ignore this if you’ve done so already.

[Gamma Emerald]

LLD, I expressed you shouldn't be town read easily, you think I suck for that and vote me. It's not letter of the law omgus, but pretty darn close. You feel slighted because I questioned why someone else pocketed you.

I know you know better than this. I recognize you're now backpedaling for an answer to make it fit, but I know you know better than this.

This dies today. No questions. Cabd?

This, however, registers completely.

[Gamma Emerald]

I recently learned of this thing, its called "crumbing" and I thought I would try it out sometime.

As someone who crumbs most games, I find it a fun way to help me think about how I word my posts. Most times I word vomit though.

Not sure if I’ve ever really seen crumbing this way
Perhaps you could tell me more, if not now, then in the future?

[Gamma Emerald]

Dang I now feel bad because I feel like there are hella amount of neg utility thrown in to justify balance for my role.

hrrrrrrrmmm
I saw something about S_S walking back some of what unwnd said/implied. Something tells me we’ve got another Saber situation on our hands.

[Gamma Emerald]

Oh wait that was GIF
SCRATCH THAT

[Gamma Emerald]

+1 to thinking the whole luke situation is weird

.......

[Gamma Emerald]

Okay LLD you have my vote

I kinda wanna burn the Easily Compliants (Wheme, Manatee)

[Gamma Emerald]

Are you nervous or intimidated by me or the playerlist in general? Honest answer

part of this playlist im kinda nervous and intimidated by yeah, but the other part of the playerlist im comfortable with.

Is that intimidation more so

You're worried of being fooled by them/can't read them

Or something else? You had a minor thought about me so I'm curious how you're treating this engagement

sorta intimidation maybe?
dont tell anyone since its kinda embarrassing for me to admit this

Spoiler:

im scared my reasonings for stuff will be seen as "not valid" "not good" "dumb reasoning" which is why i've been in general.. a really bad player in some of the games ive been playing lately.
i know where this stems from, but i cant stop thinking along these lines.

when i play games with my friend group they usually shit on my reasoning, and my reasoning usually falls apart quite easily.. this has been happening for awhile now, and its just really worn down my confidence to even attempt to say things. i dont wanna be seen as stupid.

Sometimes my logic can get a little wild too, and it’s okay to be unsure. Also, what do you mean by them shitting on your reasoning because those sound like fake friends ngl

Spoiler:

I might be able to read everything, but I'm not really sure it would be worth my time. As always I am open to (and encourage) recommendations about particular sections to look at.

Big things I think are the claims. (A lot of those have happened for a day 1)

LLD: claimed that they can be brainwashed by the scum team to perform the night kill. So functionally a tracker/watcher miller, but said that she would come up town to a cop.

DGB: claimed to be a dreaming god.

GiF: claims that they remove themselves from the game night 1. Like, they gone for all intents and purposes for things like votes needed each day, but that they will come back at some unknown point.

Manatee: Claimed to be a double voted / vig combo. If their second vote is on wagon at the end of the day, they get a normal vig shot. If their second vote is off wagon at the end of the day, their vig automatically targets the person they voted. If the day ends before manatee uses their second vote on anyone at all, their vig shot kills a random townie.

Toog / Titus : claimed a Joat, that had to spend points to use their abilities, and that they gain points whenever a townie dies.

-----

Manatee has already placed their second vote on Titus, so they are functionally dead already

The LLD explanation as a pseudo miller was an over simplification actually. Because yeah, they would come up badly on those (targeting the night kill) they also let the scum team be ninjas. She has also confirmed that if she is roleblocked, the night kill will be stopped as if you roleblocked the scum carrying out the kill. She also says that a watcher on her would not see a scum targeting her to make her do the night kill. It just happens.

11. Death is final?

There have also been some discussions about the implication of the question mark on this rule.

Also, hi!

@ gamma. I typed these up for ss

Since then Kate has claimed a gated vig

[Lukewarm]

Gamma how much of the game did you read before you repped in?

[Gamma Emerald]

Also ssbm hasn't posted yet.

i know, but she doesnt make me nervous because she knows how i play > i dont think she'll completely drag on me for being an idiot

That wasn't at you.

I'd just like everybody to post before the day ends because lol Tarot.

Me being unable to post left me dead in the water wtf are you on about
(Yes I’m still salty cabd sussed me over literal jack-shit)

[DrippingGoofball]

eh maybe Gamma isn't scum after all hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[Gamma Emerald]

Gamma how much of the game did you read before you repped in?

I skimmed from a certain point around when unwnd repped out, because I saw something that initially ired me and wanted to keep tabs on it, it turned out not what I thought because I missed a crucial detail

[Gamma Emerald]

i have a second vote. placing it on a player that doesnt get elimed kills them.
placing it on a player that does get elim gives me a vig shot.
not placing it kills a random townie at night.

i knew i didnt want to not place it and i knew i wanted 2 keep the rest under wraps hence my original claim

This feels logical
Still not a fan of how shallow manatee has felt so far, not a lot of original thought detected from her so far

[Lukewarm]

Y’all should consult Titus on references that others can actually grasp on some level

I believe their intent is for no one else to get it :/

Are you really posing questions to your own slot?

He was scum that game
