The problem with this plan is, from my POV it guarantees a town win for Tierce to be your hammerer. Which is what she was arguing for me to be the hammerer. And since I'm leaning towards her being the scum, I'm unlikely to agree to vote you. And I'm sure she'll say the same thing.
This is why I think it's so important for Tierce to claim
pedit: Exactly.

she is, and I'll unvote her if that's what it takes. I just don't accept that Tierce is a VT also.pedit: Exactly.

Exactly, which means that he is the lynch, problem solved. That was my original conclusion in the whole "that's the beauty of it" that was so shamelessly stolen.In post 76, saulres wrote:ppedit: He hasn't done any scumhunting. He's just riding the claim. That's not solid enough to be conftown.
By the way, scum supersaint and Town supersaint don't work because one would just hammer each other for a Town autowin.

Oh, I'll vote him. Kind of silly to propose the whole thing otherwise; the outcome would just be my lynch and a sure Town loss.In post 76, saulres wrote:The problem with this plan is, from my POV it guarantees a town win for Tierce to be your hammerer.

Nope. It does work, because the town one still needs to convince the other townie which one to vote for. That's what LyLo's all about.In post 79, Tierce wrote:By the way, scum supersaint and Town supersaint don't work because one would just hammer each other for a Town autowin.
pedit: Awesome. So do it. Otherwise it's just lip service. Scum could easily conceive a plan like that hoping it makes them look townie enough to have the supersaint pick the other person.

Friday afternoons through Saturday nights.Numbering these so I can get to them in some sort of organized fashion. I apologize for splitting it up over multiple posts but today I just can't do it all at once.
pedit: Man I'm tired of typing "pedit" LOL.
But if one supersaint self-votes, and if it's the town one, the scum doesn't hammer. And if it's the scum one, then -- but if the scum doesn't self-vote then -- oh. I see. Bad me
So we're back to the setup I first speculated (not the KK one, the other one -- SS3 I think).
In post 55, Tierce wrote:Behold! She lives!
OneSetting the game up like this on purpose would be immoral; you're a mod, you know this. I know you go on wild speculation as Town, but why would you suggest KK is doing something like that?

But, by the way, this is kind of offensive to suggest regardless of whether you believe it or not (if you're scum, it's obvious pretense). Mods are not supposed to set up things like this on purpose. Don't suggest they do, that's gaming the mod and questioning their moral code.
TwoThis is scummy. It's much the same as NS's mod-vote in Vi's Mafia in Triplicate; it's a joke, and itIn post 11, saulres wrote:I'm also wondering about this:Theoretically we could all just not vote forever until he breaks down and tells us who the scum is just to end it.In post 1, Kublai Khan wrote:The game is in LYLO and will continue as long as necessary.
Let's try something.
VOTE: Kublai Khanwasfunny when I read it, but--you read the previous 3p game. Like with the wincon bit, it was in the rules in that game as well. You said you didn't read the rules in the previous game, but it's a3pgame and you know there is a scum player due to said wincon and the fact that we are in LyLo, so we can't be "all Town", as you say you wondered. I know you're a rational person--speculation is not discordance, but in this game you have rather dissonant frames of mind. Did you or did you not know this was in LyLo/there is a scum player? Did you or did you not know that the wincon is the same as the previous game, so super saints are irrelevant to it because that's how KK writes things? The lack of knowledge makes no sense from a Town player who read the 3p Daycop game and who wants to verify things before making assumptions on roles. You're pretending not to know things to try and fish information out of Zach. However, I will grant you that I don't think you were familiar with super saints before this game, though you are familiar with vengekill roles.
Ramble ramble ramble etc. My point when I started this paragraph was that voting the mod is a cheap Towntell. My main point of contention here is: you were in Maf.Triplicate, you know I don't go on those things as evidences of Townieness, so it kind of doubles around and I go back to not thinking there's a lot of scum intent there. But it still looks fake, like you have nothing better to do yet are afraid to admit it, and chose to make that post out of a feeling of awkwardness.
ThreeI expect you mean hammeringIn post 38, saulres wrote:But his not hammering me tells me I'm right.me, notyou, but:
Claiming supersaint is suboptimal (Zach appears to have wondered if it was an iffy claim to make, if you look at Post 12) and you're trying to paint me as scummy for a theory point that is on the Super Saint wiki page, which you probably read if you were going through SS3. It doesn't matter if you "knew" the role or not, you're calling me scum for making a decision...too quickly?You do know I read a lot of games, right? Let's add that one of my first IRC mafia games was SS3 and I was the super saint. Also Open 390, with the Brass and Shrapnel setup. I don't have to wait on you to know things I've known for a year and a half about the SS/vengeful role.
I know it's not optimal to claim vengeful, and therefore have no interest in claiming or counterclaiming or co-claiming oranythingin these circumstances. Consider the hypothetical scenario in which I'm a super saint, Zach is scum and knows there is a super saint in the game. He can self-vote on page 1 without worry, because neither of us is the kind to trollhammer as Town. He claims super saint, and if he's lucky, you either blurt out you are a VT, or I counterclaim. Then he knows you have to be the lynch, therefore won't hammer the real super saint (me). (Hypothetical scenario 2 is Zach is a Jester, and wants to be lynched (SS would be an AWESOME claim in that case), but regardless of my role, he can't be a Jester because it's not a Mafia-aligned role and it's not present in the win conditions.)
Outside any hypothetical scenario, I'm not going to be lynched in this game (you are NOT going to add to my two mislynches), and neither are you. Zach is the lynch, and he gets to pick who hammers him after self-voting. And I promise I won't laugh at you for self-voting even if you're scum, Zach~
Four...And? If he's telling the truth, he is still the lynch. Choosing to lynch a claimed super saint is not scummy, but you're trying to say it is:In post 31, saulres wrote:No, Tierce, lynching Zach isnotthe way to go if you're town. Town would look at the things at their VT role (as I did), the wording of the town win condition ("dead", not "lynched"), and come to my conclusion that he's telling the truth.Bonus points for the posturing in the first sentence.In post 33, saulres wrote:And was I shocked to see her vote you right off the bat like that, instead of taking time to think it through. If she's "inclined to think that saul is scum" then she should have voted for me, not for you.
See above, under the LOLNOPE NOT CLAIMING section. It wouldn't be optimal for me to counterclaim as a supersaint, and I am not clarifying things on that end. It doesn't matter, becauseIn post 50, saulres wrote:This statement is not said from town to someone they think is scum.In post 27, Tierce wrote:Incidentally, you shouldn't have claimed, Zach. I think. But that cow's been milked.I'm not the lynch.
I think saul is scum, but it's up to Zach. #YOLetc.
pedit: Man I'm tired of typing "pedit" LOL.
But if one supersaint self-votes, and if it's the town one, the scum doesn't hammer. And if it's the scum one, then -- but if the scum doesn't self-vote then -- oh. I see. Bad me

I think he was expecting me to hammer you on the grounds of my "Oh, I'll vote him" words. Which was in answer to "If Zach asks me to hammer", not just hammering Zach out of the blue without him picking. I'm sleepy, not out of my wits.
Seriously, Zach. I want an actual description (though I understand the emotional value of keysmashing all too well).

I kind of really hope Zach is scum and made the worst gambit of his life and is trying to figure out how to get out of this situation.

No. Because if you're wrong, that means you picked me, and I won't vote you unless I think you're scum. Tierce doesn't have credibility in my eyes to call your claim a false one; she has givenIn post 93, Zachrulez wrote:I only die if I'm wrong, no pressure right?

I would prefer there is some other resolution to this but there's not.
Responding to Tierce point
You say you see no game-relevant information for that? That's correct, there wasn't. That's 9 posts into a game where we can't RVS, and you had only sent out one throwaway line. Until you were also talking there wasn't much I felt I could do as a VT, so I was having conversation for conversation's sake. Much like Zach's first post (3) and your first post (5). Nothing game-relevant there either.
Suggesting that I was offensive to KK for suggesting it? Let's see, post-game, if he felt that way. I think he saw where I was coming from and it wasn't an issue for him. But nice of you to try to paint me as "immoral" and "offensive" -- that's a form of AtE.
