Mini 1486: Fruit Basket Mafia (Game Over)

[Buffy vs Dracula]

Actually-- hold up a sec.

Also: Simple Plan, any reason you've just totally ignored the Formerfish wagon of glory?

I don't like the idea of wagon-ing someone to... What, L2 would it have been on page one of a thread. There wasnt enough time to get a solid read on anyone, at least for me, and seeing the wagon developing that fast, I'm going to be watching those four closely... Now, watching him react a bit more to the wagon, I think

it

looks rather suspicious. Not worthy of jumping on the wagon this quickly, but with a wagon filling so quick, I don't want to lynch immediately without getting a read on people first; these day one discussions are where my reads start to form, and a rapid wagon like that looks... Very intriguing.

What is the "it" you're referring to here, ASP?

I like your response to pressure, Buffy, but I would still like to see your reads to questions ratio improve.

[Alexcellent]

Hey guys, been sick as a dog for the last few days, I'll catch up and post tomorrow.

[Slandaar]

Simple has a lot of votes not sure how many and I am really bad at counting so noone else vote him for now before we get a VC.

[pdmedic]

@MOD Due to work commitments I am probably not going to be able to respond until Sunday.

[StubbsKVM]

He's at L-1. Time to claim.

[Alexcellent]

@Alexcellent, don't you find anything worth commenting on with Elyse's game so far? Surely she's caused enough ripples so far to find something noteworthy, on her or those she has interacted with.

To be honest, not really. I don't quite understand a lot of the heat on her, a lot of it seems to be based on meta. I might need to give her a proper ISO though, but yeah, nothing that she's said has really jumped out at me as being scummy.

[Alexcellent]

I'm pretty confident that ASP is likely scum, especially given that he hasn't posted since #171 yet has been fairly active for the rest of the day. But still, no one hammer until he comes back!
Also I really don't like FormerFish's #198. It just comes across as blatant bandwagoning after seeing everyone else jumping on ASP's wagon. Could be scum wanting to bus their partner at the last minute maybe?

Weird. Drac's played with her before, and he seems to think her behavior is more aggressive than this as scum. Maybe he can elaborate once he gets back from his crypt (or whatever the hell he's doing right now). Personally I'm not getting that many scum vibes from Elyse, although that thing with the borrowed guns Drac was nervous about gave me some bad feels too. I don't think she could be scum with Kid A, though.

And yes-- Formerfish's behavior is weirding me out as well. Primarily because he went from buddying ASP to voting ASP. I think he's being much scummier than ASP, actually.

[A Simple Plan]

Sorry guys... Long story short, with as light a schedule as I took in college, I seriously wasn't expecting to find it this difficult to sign on and post, at least daily if not more, and quite frankly its just been impossible- two days in and already a homework assignment that took me four hours, and that's just one class. Combine that with the urgent need for me to get a job now that my mom is going on leave for surgery, and I'm not going to be able to handle the game at the level I truly want to.

As per the request to claim, I'm Vanilla Town.

MOD

: I'm going to need a replacement, please. This has nothing to do with your game, the setup, any of the players in the game, nor you as a mod, and it was a privilege to play in your game for the time I did. I hope that at a point when I have the time to play to the level I usually am able, I might be privileged to participate in one of your games again; I am truly sorry.

[RadiantCowbells]

Thanks for playing ASP!

Searching for a replacement.

[Kid A]

Buffy keeps kind of sort of supporting an ASP lynch or a formerfish lynch while vote parking on me without pushing on me and not voting formerfish even though theyre apparently scummy

I think Buffy is probably mafia and I think Buffy's partner is someone within formerfish or ASP because they keep saying formerfish should be voted over asp

[Desperado]

Replace out is null + VT claim is null = not unvoting.

[Slandaar]

Buffy's posting has been quite lacklustre yes.

[RadiantCowbells]

A Simple Plan has been replaced by Crowley!

[Lucky2u]

Oh haha Radiant...

By Crowley he means me. Hello all! Catching up now. I was made aware I'm sitting on L-1. Please allow me at least a day or two to debate my predecessor's failure.

[Buffy vs Dracula]

Seriously though, do you think Elysescum would try to mimic me as she did? It is quite... outrageous from scum. It was a good reaction as I said in my post.

That would be sneaky indeed, and I do agree with this point.

I like your response to pressure, Buffy, but I would still like to see your reads to questions ratio improve.

Chances are, they will. Speaking for me I will share my reads whenever I feel and ask questions whenever I like^^

Maybe he can elaborate once he gets back from his crypt (or whatever the hell he's doing right now).

--Buffy

I will elaborate! She was aggressive in the beginning, last game as scum, but not all the way through, and not this active. All in all she feels different, so I lean more town than scum on Elyse.
I also do see the concern about ASP, and am not opposed to a lynch on the spot (Buffy might feel differently). I don't think his posts makes sense as either alignment, especially his #171 is just ...I just don't get it. The only thing that makes me hesitate is that I read him as newb town at the beginning, and I've seen newbs saying the weirdest stuff making them beheaded before.

*Staring, blood running out of mouth*
We kind of sort of kind of poke in different directions than what seems to be the norm. I'm not too content with "yay, this one must be scum, let's call it a day", cause I'm just not that certain. Also, this reads as your vote would be better suited at us than ASP, logically.

Oh haha Radiant...

I'm not voting for ASP because that would be a hammer, much as Drac would like to pound his head in.

You're implying that because I must be scum because I'm keeping on my vote on a player I'm certain is scum rather than changing it to one of two players I think could maybe be scum? That's just silly. I put my vote on the person who I think is most likely to be scum.

And this is ignoring the blatant misrep here. When did I "sort of support" an ASP or Fish lynch? I said that they couldn't be scum together and my suspicions of Fish have been... mild at best.

Final retort-- you are voting for ASP, presumably because you think he's scum. Why are you saying that ASP is a potential scumbuddy of mine if you've already suggested he's scum?

--Buffy

[Buffy vs Dracula]

Hey Drac, didn't expect you to ninja me there. :0o

[Formerfish]

How was I apparently buddying ASP?

[UberKang]

Been a little busy over the weekend but have been keeping my eye on things where I can. Pity ASP had to replace out, looking forward to seeing what his replacement has to say.

@Slandaar: I mainly wanted to know if the reads that you posted were based on where your summary was up to, or if they were influenced by posts later in the game too.

I'm ok with my vote at present but am interested in the ASP wagon. Some of his posts were pretty damning and it's hard to look past that.

[StubbsKVM]

I guess we wait for the replacement to catch up.

[Lucky2u]

Well that was fun to catch up on. You guys blew up my scumdar with how many of you are acting scummy that I am wondering if the MOD didn't mess up and assign you all as scum. I'm going to narrow this down to my two favorite offenders.

Formerfish: This is the guy who started out with all the RVS votes, which was mass stupidity on the towns part, but the way he reacted to it is showing that those people had some luck on their side because they outed a scum already. He is eventually let off the hook but as of right now, jumps on the building wagon of ASP/Me sensing his opportunity to get out of day 1 alive.

pdmedic: I know this guy is new but everything he says is making my eye twitch that he doesn't have a single vote on him. Is everyone just giving him a bye day 1 because of the new card? If we are doing that fine, but can we seriously look at this guy day 2? He even dropped the "new player" card twice to excuse himself and is lurking while the attention is on ASP/me. His 178 seals it for me.

Town Peoples: Jesus... I don't.... I mean I... god are there town people in this game? By sheer process of elimination I am going to say Slandaar is my top town read.
