Mini 1603 - Air Combat Mafia - Game Over

[T S O]

Matt's sudden hard-on for lynching me is really annoying but it's prob town.

[T S O]

farside's is shit.

[Espressojet]

See, but when I try to people think I'm scummy for it.

[farside22]

farside's is shit.

Did I miss that big reason that SSK was scum from you?

Did I miss you doing some actual scum hunting this game?

*looks*

Nope.

[farside22]

I kinda feel Reck's scum. I also feel SSK could be scum.

reck ain't happening tho

Reck, if you're not going to respond to farside, I'm not going to stop calling you scum.

She made 1-2 illiterate posts and the rest are perfectly literate if you have intention of actually reading them.

One day maybe you're going to think "Wait a minute, I ALWAYS look scummy, maybe I should make an effort to not be scummy!"

These post are seriously just random comments tso makes in the game.
There is not one reason he explains why he thinks anything he said. There is no case. Nothing in his ISO that shows why he came to a single one of the conclusions he post above.
This people is called active lurking by scum.

And I was going to call this an easy to understand farside post. Until I got to the last sentence. I'm still trying to understand it.
I think it means that TSO has been called an active lurker by scum before, but I'm not sure.

Current Deadline

(expired on 2014-09-03 15:24:00)

MOD: Can we get a minor extension just so I can have your response to my question? I mean, I'm obviously limited by when I wake up tomorrow, but just wanted to check.

Sorry, mate. While I understand you'd like to be as informed as possible, the question simply didn't validate an extension. For extensions I'm talking about: site outages, mass replacements, mod v/la, stuff like that. I'll also note that it wouldn't be fair to insert that extension this late.



"Think I'll do it then." Mykonian's voice crackles over the radio. It's uncertain whether the crackling is from the static, or in his throat. "It's Espressojet."
You count the numbers on your hand, and count again. And again. Espressojet whimpers his plea but...the sun sets over the distant horizon. Looking to your left you can see the darkness creeping along your wing. You swing into a lazy right hand turn to extend your time in the fading sunlight.

"Myko, you don't ha-"
"I said I'll do it!" He shouts through the static, and takes deep drawing breaths from his oxygen mask. The rushing of air across his microphone gives a whisper to each big pause. "I said....Locked Two-Seven-Five. Thirty eight. Twenty three thousand feet...Master arm...on."

Espressojet looks down at his radar warning receiver. Nothing. He looks down at his position readout. Bang on. "You are locked my position. Locked friendly. Hold fire, man."

Mykonian's left index finger flitters across the multiple-function screen in his cockpit, checking that everything is working within the missile. His right thumb brushes over the fire button and flinches as if the button were red hot and poison. He draws his hand back from the stick, the aircraft's trim keeping him level. Bunching his fist a few times until the blood fills his flying gloves. He rips the glove from his hand and pops his mask from his face. A red ring is the only evidence of how hard it was jammed to his jawline, but even that is temporary as his regular tan returns to his face, perhaps just a little whiter than usual.

A few deep breaths without the artificially produced oxygen start to make Mykonian lightheaded, and though he welcomes the almost drunk feeling of relaxation, he returns his mask and switches the oxygen back on. Inside your cockpit the dead air across your radio is making you worry. You start to press your transmit button to ask if everything is okay, but before you can, you hear the distinct click of the silence ending, and you await the transmission.

"Hostile hostile. Fox Three." His voice lacks the excitement and adrenaline that usually comes with such a notification. Instead it is flat. Uncertain, but not unsure. Defeated, but not disappointed.


The missile streaks through the sky. If you could hear it from your cockpit you would hear the rushing of the rocket booster. You would hear the soft blips of the radar processor. You would hear the small explosion in the warhead. You would hear the metal rods inside expand outwards and snap at their ends. You would hear those rods tear into the soft skin of the aircraft. You would hear them tear into the softer skin of a pilot.


Giving Mykonian time to collect himself, another jet flies over the wreckage in the dirt. At this low altitude it's already night time, but the fire gives ample lighting for the observer.

"Bad news, Flight. Looks Korean. Definitely an F-15."

Espressojet - F-15K STRIKE EAGLE -

Night one.

Ends in 72hrs.

You cut your nose up a few degrees, getting a few more thousand feet in the air to see if you can catch the sun coming over the horizon yet. Instead of the bright sun on your east side, instead you see a flash below you and to the west. Snapping your head across you watch the flash burn out as it falls from the sky.

You flick your thumb over the transmit button "Call in!" Counting the names off doesn't take long and before the end you can guess which names wont be there.

Of course, Esspressojet is missing. Of course. Also, you don't hear the deep voice of Belisarius.

Goddamn it. You've got to do something.

Belisarius - MiG 23 FLOGGER -

Vanilla Town

- Has been killed.


DAY TWO BEGINS.

Deadline in TWO WEEKS from this post date.

Okay, this is a really important issue that needs to be addressed: I incorrectly posted a death scene for Esspressojet. It occurred, very simply, because I was unfamiliar with how Countdown tags actually work. It turns out they default to UTC-10 (for some fucking reason, Kison!) and not to board time. Which means that as it approached, I couldn't reconcile what time the deadline had expired compared to when posts had been made, and so I made the decision based off the same thing I've always tried to make decisions based on: Perceived intent. Here is the question I gave myself: "What does it look like Mykonian intended by his post? Did he believe it be a lynch, or not?" This isn't an alignment thing, this is about whether or not myko intended his post to be a hammer or not. And that isn't about what he

actually

intended, but what it appears to the game, to the thread, to me.

Without an objective answer to whether or not myko's vote counted, I was forced to say that it would.

I have a lot of regret regarding Espressojet, most notably for ceasing his play experience even a second earlier than I should have, especially for a reason as stupid as a BBCODE tag not working intuitively.

To fix the problem I have two solutions moving forward: One is to cease the use of countdown tags, as they're not achieving the intent I need. The second is that the deadline will expire 2 weeks after the post time of THIS POST. Which gives me an "in my time-zone, in board-time" benchmark.

I understand the anger the town may have, that Espressojet has directed to me. I'll use it to keep improving my methods and my structure.

[Csareo]

I think killing expresso was the right call from a moderation standpoint

[Anatole Kuragin]

That's interesting, beli was one of my scum reads.

[Anatole Kuragin]

but so was espresso, so yeah, I suck at mafia

[Flubbernugget]

I agree Beli was an interesting kill considering he was lurking even harder than me.

[Csareo]

Why the hell would they kill an inactive player is what I'm wondering?

[Anatole Kuragin]

So you could ask questions like that and waste our time, or you thought he was a PR.

[Csareo]

First rule of mafia: No question is stupid.
Speculate everything, ignore nothing

[T S O]

Because they didn't feel any need to change the gamestate.

[vezokpiraka]

I still want farside dead.
Speculating on nks ia wifom and helps us as much as spammimg.

[xRECKONERx]

Can we please continue lynching farside?

Also,

@MOD: You can plug in time zone changes to your countdown tags like so:

Code: Select all

[countdown]YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS -UTC[/countdown]

So, for example, plugging in -5.00 in the UTC spot would make the counter work with EST timezone. I don't know which time zone you're in but maybe this helps.

[vezokpiraka]

Yeah.

vote farside

I used countdowns and they didn't default to UTC. I wonder what's up with that.

[Espressojet]

It's all cool Oman, I just got really frustrated in the heat of the moment. These things happen, it's chill, don't worry. Good luck to the town. /deadpost

[xRECKONERx]

Oh shit is TSO scum?

[xRECKONERx]

farside attacks TSO, TSO calls her town and won't lynch her. That's EXACTLY how I respond to cases on me when I'm scum.
