Heroes of Comedy Game Over - He who laughs last!

[MagnaofIllusion]

If its a common enough occurrence it shouldn't be an issue. I'd appreciate if you can, I'll ho into more details later tonight.

It’s not very common at all. In fact the only other occurance I could find was -

Open 320: Tit for Tat

I was scum there also. I gave up looking at the end of page 3 of my egosearch threads list.

We should hang out more then... that or you could send me a copy of your biography. I can't promies you I'll read it, but I'll put it on my mantle and when people come over I can point it out as a bit of a conversation piece.

That was actually a lie.... People never come over... I throw the most loneliest parties *tear*

Well you never sent me an invitation …

How is it 'clearly fabricated'?

Well it’s impossible for me to have scum-slipped since I’m Town …

what about his reaction is a scum tell exactly? I should look into this M..something... 3K7 or whatever mafia... Do you just have this one example then?

Good luck … it was eaten by Tigers.

He reacted to Grey properly calling him out for being opportunistic scum (via being sucked into a trap) by calling Grey scum and making a poor case on him right afterwards.

Well given that is our ONLY common game before this? No, I don’t have any examples.

Damn those tigers! *shakes fist* Living off the state, why don't they go back to Russia!

He reacted to Grey properly calling him out for being opportunistic scum (via being sucked into a trap) by calling Grey scum and making a poor case on him right afterwards.

So in other words a completely different situation with a relatively 'similar' event. I hardly call it convincing but it seems to justify your own vote more or less well enough.

Well you never sent me an invitation …

What are you talking about? I clearly did one up for you... see I have it right here *taps envelope sitting on desk* It must have gotten lost in the mail or something... I'd write a letter of complaint about it but I already sent the one sitting on the cupboard over there this morning. I tell you, if there is one thing you can count on regarding Canada Post, it's to not be very reliable here in Alaska...

[pappums rat]

Actually I picked up a possible slip by MoI, which involves the thread title. Plus town points to anybody who can guess it. I'm going to bed, will post it in the morning.

VOTE: MoI

Yeah, I'm not seeing any slip. Could you point this out for us?

In the meantime,

Vote: Korlash

[The Jester]

Vote: JasonT1981

For faking his own death. It says he was found dead, but if we look at the official log, no one is dead. Yet his name doesn't appear with the living? It's a conspiracy.

I also want to point out that I don't find my comedian funny either. Though that's not part of my vote, it just means I will occasionally glare at jason from the shadows.

[Benmage]

unvote vote MoI

[Fate]

hehehahe

Hehahheahaehah

HEHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

UNVOTE:
VOTE: KORLASH

GUESS WHOS FINALLY TOWN

[Fate]

Oh look, OMGUS!

My vote moves from chuckle-vote to real now!

Thanks for being such an easy scum-read Vijay (just like MST3K Mafia)!

Oh wait shit I can't pass up an excuse to lynch MoI for actual reasons

Unvote:
Vote: MOI

[Fate]

Oh Korlash you don't know me at all. I'm very saddened by this

It's clearly OMGUS because he actually has no reason. His 'slip' is clearly fabricated justification to OMGUS me. Not that OMGUS is a scum-tell.

The scum-tell is his reaction to pressure.

Just like good old MST3K Mafia where I nailed him Day 1 on his similar reaction to being called out by GreyICE.

Oh how MoI longs for meta, for past games where he was town.

He's so uncomfortable here in hsi sucm pm

[Benmage]

Vote: MoI

Just cause.

Had you read the few posts thus far when you made this post?

-Fate you best be. Cause I'll know. And yes, MoI is scum.

[MagnaofIllusion]

You'd actually have to have them then other than residual butthurt ...

So Pizza is voting me. And you say I'm scum. And you want him to validate his vote to you?

Just curious.

I don't know any humerus comeback to this... So here's a picture of an Owl:



He is not happy...

[Korlash]

Should be funnier...

You should broaden your horizons more mate, this is a game of comedians from all woks of life... from every street and corner, from ice-cream salesmen to fucking weirdo transvestites! Let's take this opportunity to relish our inner comedic genius and pickle this thread with onion and tomato... What was I talking about...

-Fate you best be. Cause I'll know. And yes, MoI is scum.

Whoa, Ben is getting serious. Look at his game face *imitates his game face and bursts out laughing* ha ha ha... this probably didn't translate well to text, but I'm laughing and that's the most important thing...

So Pizza is voting me. And you say I'm scum. And you want him to validate his vote to you?

Are you suggesting votes don't need to be validated if they are placed correctly?

[iStark]

@How come I was never invited either?

I'm sad ;-;

[drmyshotgun]

Why was I not notified of this game commencing? Oh well,
VOTE: Vijay
I know him from other games.

[drmyshotgun]

Oh shit, didn't see Yates and Benmage.
Guess my past (?) is catching up with me. I won't troll this game. I'm serious.

[drmyshotgun]

Besides, Vijay knows I'm not a troll. Right Vijay?

[vijay2vasandani]

^ lol this kid. Yeah when you want to be.

The slip was that the title says "when the laughter died" ergo non-funny comedians are scum. Just a thought. Jester is probably his buddy following this logic, although less likely because MoI doing it first weakens it as a tell imo.

And MoI I'm sure you're experienced enough to know OMGUS implies the lack of valid reasoning or thought process. Me not stating one means you could have only accused me of withholding that. You can only accuse me of OMGUS once you've seen aforementioned reasoning and determined it's status. This is also known as mudslinging scum.

Another thing, don't pull the "im town so I can't scumslip". Just don't. There is no point to it.

[Fate]

Please don't tell me

that

huehuehue Benmage+Fate townwinstreak continues

[MagnaofIllusion]

Where did I ask him to validate his vote?

In the post I quoted Ben. Why the faux denseness?

There is no reason to question if he had read regarding his vote unless you are specifically checking for validation of said vote.

Unless you are just fluffing.

Perish the thought. No, I’m digging into Benmage and his motives.

Oh so your slip is that non-funny Comedians are scum. And I specifically as said scum who knew this went out of my way to explicitly say I didn’t find my Comedian funny. Complete bullshit away!!!!

Yeah, my vote can stay for the current period.

And MoI I'm sure you're experienced enough to know OMGUS implies the lack of valid reasoning or thought process. Me not stating one means you could have only accused me of withholding that. You can only accuse me of OMGUS once you've seen aforementioned reasoning and determined it's status. This is also known as mudslinging scum.

And page 2 of the Vijay scum playbook – attempt to assert that those attacking you are just mudslinging.

It must kill you to get caught this easily.

[Yates]

The slip was that the title says "when the laughter died" ergo non-funny comedians are scum. Just a thought.

That's a serious stretch. For one thing, comedy is subjective. Is Gallagher funny? What about Carrot Top? While it would be funny if the scum was comprised of the Pope and Dick Cheney, I don't think you can jump to this conclusion until there is a scum flip.

[Korlash]

I have to weigh in on this, even though I feel Yates said it perfectly. Comedians are comedians, regardless of how funny you feel they are. if they 'weren't funny' they couldn't be comedians, it's impossible. Your theory on the setup is solid enough, but since this is a game of comedians from around the world for all we know nationality plays into who is scum, not their lack of talent. We can't know until someone actually flips scum.

Furthermore, the 'when the laughter died' part of the title most likely refers to Jason's death in the third post... A comedy legend died, thus the laughter died with him.

Now all that being said, going after someone who is a 'mostly known as not being funny' comic makes perfect sense in this setup. But you'll need a hell of a lot more than just that PLUS an actual claim before it even starts to 'hold weight'.
