i'm just going to take the ut-clear at face value for now. from a game design standpoint, the joat claim kind of bugs me, but i'm not going to over think it. i buy it.

ATTN: The Reckoning III Invitational Players


Untrod Tripod is our weak neighbourizer target. We have a QuickTopic with Untrod Tripod. Untrod Tripod is confirmed town. If you want to vote UT and not us, you are slow. If you want to vote UT when you think we're town, you're
really
slow.


(Waiting for a response on the godfather thing, but I think it'd be terrible modding to have a godfather be immune to weak roles, anyway. Godfathers show up as guilty to gunsmiths, after all.)

Why does it bug you from a "game design" standpoint, Antihero?

because then the scumbag joat can't claim his actual role without being counterclaimed

i could see it happening, but seems kind of tacky

Nitpick: We are a Drafter of All Trades, not a Jack of All Trades. (Also, maybe the scumbag has really scummy powers like Strongman, Ninja, etc.--in Anything Goes, my buddy had those.)

godfathers aren't immune to hiders/weak roles. i
guess
you could say "commuter", but given that the QT was set up, the action was obviously successful

take home message: ut is confirmed; let's not get bogged down

By gamma's message - assuming that it is made from someone's hidden knowledge.
It's only apparent in that regard. I've always been confirmed town in my personal opinion.

Oh, just got a response from the mods. Godfathers
aren't
immune to weak roles, and third parties would also kill us. Woo!

Gammagooey, I assume the contents of the message weren't mod-confirmed to be the truth the way, e.g., a friendly neighbour message would be? I'd think they'd distinguish between actual information and just a message someone could have made up.

Somehow I doubt it will.
you made 1 post which I liked.

it was the 1 about dan's exit <---there is merit there. I think I gave a pass to cdb for too easy reasons. did you do this too?

magua is not steering tho, and on a hunch I think he usually does. what say you?

eta:oh xposts. and then tammy is being a word I am not allowed to say
I made a bunch of awesome posts >_>

Yesterday when I was talking about my cdb (and magua) worries, Faraday told me I was nuts.

I haven't re-read through some things though. I never read in night, especially when there's a chance I'm going to die.

For Pie, I think he's fine. Mina's worried that all I think about him is he's fine.

Mina-head thinks Pie is playing in a way competent scum could easily fake, the lamentation over Eleven was forced and jeep-tell-esque, and the Antihero vote was lazy. YNGO had some tonally town posts early D1 and late D2 that made me want to target him last night--see below--but I hate that his reads have been lazy, his stance on ActionDan was awful for the reasons Eleven pointed out (almost too awful to be scum, TBH), he ignored Eaglekit, and his focus this game is 100% centered on anyone who suspects him being scum or dumb.

Also, to add a couple of things to Tammy's claim:

1) The idea was also to avoid NKs, since claiming and then being killed that night makes our role useless. I thought it was funny that everyone cleared us for the code, though, because that was me
being a geek for its own sake
thinking from the PoV of an actual hider and trying to look more concerned than I actually was about our target dying. It keeping our investigation alive for another night was a bonus, though. (Ideally, I'd have liked not to reveal UT at all until after our death, but too late.)

2) Although the _oAT was kept hidden to make the code work, I was deliberately trying to create the impression that the "modified" part of hider was something like "our role only works on certain people because of flavour," because otherwise, "Uh, if by any chance there's only one death tonight, just saying, you should REALLY not trust our result" was a dead giveaway. Technically, we didn't ACTUALLY lie! We just, uh, talk to the person instead of hiding behind him! That's a modified hide!

3) We went for UT mostly because (although we weren't convinced he was town by any means) we thought he was townier than most other people did, he was competent enough for us to work with him in a QT, and he was getting lots of votes. YNGO was actually my second choice (Tammy didn't mention him on the list.) I veto'd mollie because I had nightmares of Tammy and her in the same topic (oddly, this didn't occur to Tammy--I think we kept forgetting we weren't actually a hider :P). I veto'd Fate because of memories of Goofbash Invitational--I could see him lying about being neighbourized as town just to get us lynched. Nuwen was too likely to actually be scum. That's what I meant about "not trying to suicide"--we figured that given we're not NK immune and a kill could be blocked (but our survival + new QT was 100% unambiguous), and given mystery third ability, it was better to go for the most useful
innocent
result than the most useful
guilty
(which is a shot in the dark).

4) Look, I left a quasi-breadcrumb! It's quasi because W N is horrendously lazy. <_<

ell,
n
ow I'll leave a quasi-breadcrumb that the "modified" component makes our innocents much more reliable than our guilties, so I'm not sure I agree with Tammy's FUCK-THIS-GAME-I'M-SUICIDING strategy when we're at an odd number of living players.)
Hey, Iecerint, now can you explain what the fuck you were doing by saying publicly IN THE THREAD that you thought we were a weak cop lying about our role? You guessed right, but there was zero motivation to out that. We could have been fucked over if Eagle hadn't been lynched.

I am vt so I will stick out.

neighboring me probably would have gone a long way to heal the fissure between tammy and I. how sad you decided to let scummy in ut into your lovenest.

I think you are scum your actions don't add up nope not 1 bit.

but who the fuck cares. it is just a game that is all

Scummy UT who's confirmed town?

Which actions of ours don't add up?

Why did you decide to claim VT unprompted right now?

Why are you playing completely differently from how you usually play as town?

I already claimed vt when I was run up by a bunch of dummies in the previous day round.

how is ut confirmed? like you need to spell it out like I am a four year old.

cos last I checked neighboring some1 does not in any way shape or form confirm them.

or mebbe you are saying you can only neighbor town? so you had a vig shot and a neighbor shot that acted as an investigative role. hhmm.

why didn't you use the neighbor shot n1? especially since you are saying that ut had a bunch of votes so I am guessing you had some mild suspicions on him (going to check if you voted ut) so the vig shot seems sort of premature with that line of thinking?
