Open 862: Diffusion of Power (Game Over)

[NorwegianboyEE]

Some of their voiced thoughts have been similar to mine.

[NorwegianboyEE]

Especially their townread of this Norwee fella. He seems pretty good, i think we should trust him.

[Alianna]

You're not lockscum, just a little sus.

Why would you say this?

For some reason, I felt the need to clarify that it's not reeeeeally a scumread yet, but I didn't phrase it very well.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Norwegian, pocketed. Good job, me.

Bella next.

PEdit - Hmm, I don't like that Ali but I'm not sure what it means yet.

[froggodoggo]

I mean, it would definitely be your fault Enchant.

Agreed Somnus, hence why it seems a little less likely to be scum.

excuse me? you just voted enchant and still were at this point?

[Alianna]

@Ausuka

I don't really read BBT one way or another yet. The not answering my question was irritating, but iirc he did that with all my questions last game when we were both town.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Shit. Here comes Sherlock.

If that's right, that's actually pretty rude and I apologise.

[froggodoggo]

i havent gotten thru all the pages but i think BBT is scum

VOTE: BBT

Apology accepted.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Why did you find it scummy?

I didn't initially like the first question to Gamma, although this was a minor thing.

The second post just felt wordy for the sake of it. Clearly, I couldn't possibly have a good read on NM from his few posts but I was joking around that because NM is using words (as opposed to rainbow reads-lists or some shit) that it makes me think he is town when he is probably more likely to be scum using an appealing style (humour).

Then came the buzzword read of Ali being 'genuine' and the TMI read of Enchant claim being town as if Enchant couldn't just reverse that claim at any time claiming it was an RVS joke post or whatever.

PEdit - Frog had his Weetabix this morning. Come at me bro.

[NorwegianboyEE]

Excuse me, but i'm supposed to be the Sherlock Holmes here.
I've even trained for years in mastering the martial arts of Baritsu. There will be no escape for the scum.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

The read on Ausuka has actually developed into a decent scum read due to my previous post regarding them though.

PEdit - I believe you Norwegian. We should work together. I'll be Watson.

[froggodoggo]

ok i kinda skimmed over page 5 but a lot of BBT's posts look disingenuine/fake and i dont think the way hes going about voting and pressuring this game is actually pro town. the only push that looks like it could garner a decent reaction is this one:

That's your second strike

VOTE: Ausuka

but up until this point i agreed with literally everything ausuka said and saw nothing wrong with it so im not sure what the reason for probing is. looking through BBT ISO its a lot of accussing people of being scum for lame reasons and i cant see any clear case against ausuka. i also really dislike immediately trying to throw shade on enchant for claiming d1.

PEDIT OH MY GODDDD SO MANY POSTS LMAO

[Fun Times]

Because it's unlikely i live long anyway, i hardclaim N5 Cop.

Why would you do this?

~Nancy

Noting this for later.

No one ought to be either hardclaiming or CC’ing pr claims.

~still N

@BBT, RCE bailed on me due to rl issues, thankfully Andante came through for me.

[froggodoggo]

Ok now i see a pretty decent post about ausuka. whats a weetabix?

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Weetabix cultural reference - 'So much so, that the brand slogan "Have you had your Weetabix?" has become part of British popular culture, and is typically used in reference to politicians, public figures and sports people when they've achieved something great or are up against a tough challenge.'

again this just doesnt sound real to me. its way too hyper analytical and looks like trying to make something out of nothing. which could be excused if we werent in RVS but now youre saying this a legitimate scumread and i dont believe you think that.

how is "genuine" a buzzword and what is scummy about calling someone genuine? now that i think about it you did see early TRs as scum!indicative in a previous game but i still cant lose the sense that ur just making stuff up as an excuse to push someone and look like youre hunting

So instead of explaining this when I asked you decided not to answer and then decided I'm scum for not asking you further questions after you decided to blankvote me instead of answering the first one...

Also I'm hard pressed to believe that you really thought NM's style here isn't humour

[froggodoggo]

I'd be interested to hear what other people think about him because I think I'm the only one who's really talked about him so far.

BBT seems ok.

please explain further

[Fun Times]

He could, sure. And we're probably treading into the deep waters of WIFOM and without knowing the ins and outs of how this setup tends to play out, my gut tells me that claiming on page 2 probably wasn't the best idea.

But since he did, does claiming Night 5 Cop as mafia seem like a +EV play here? Do you think he discussed this in a PT with 2 hypothetically buddies pre-game as a good idea or just decided to like...wing it as mafia out of boredom as soon as the game started?

I think claiming early in that manner was an anti-town act that i expect town to be more careful about. That’s all.

How familiar are you with Enchant’s play?

[NorwegianboyEE]

Weetabix is an incredibly unhealthy breakfast item that i used to eat when i was a child. Typically the preparation included placing 2 whole weetabrix "bricks" in a bowl, piling on an sugar mountain on top of each. And then pouring milk so that it filled the bowl until just before reaching above the sugar height. Wettening the bricks and giving you solid chunks of pure sugar and wheat to consume.

[froggodoggo]

Ausuka can you give thoughts on other players? maybe norwee or alianna?

[Not_Mafia]

I will be voting for the last person to join the game.

Please give me the exposition as to why this is your primary mode of conduct.

Hello there frenemy What do you hope to gain from this line of questioning? Why ask about this of all the RVS fluff?

[Fun Times]

Hi and-ancy!

@somnus, is it? Generally yes, but this enchant, day one elim bait...so even people processing it and saying 'eh let's leave this a day ' is a net positive for scum.

Hi Bella. <3
