Cata makes me itch... its between Cata and FTL.

[BRantz]

I like Cata more than FTL, but after doing some meta background on the Metal Sonic portion of FTL I think its just a playstyle clash more than anything else.

"'Neath blue-bell or streamer—
Or tufted wild spray
That keeps, from the dreamer,
*The moonbeam away—
Bright beings! that ponder,
With half closing eyes,
On the stars which your wonder
Hath drawn from the skies,
Till they glance thro' the shade, and
Come down to your brow
Like—eyes of the maiden
Who calls on you now—
Arise! from your dreaming
In violet bowers,
To duty beseeming
These star-litten hours—
And shake from your tresses
Encumber'd with dew
The breath of those kisses
That cumber them too—
(O! how, without you, Love!
Could angels be blest?)
Those kisses of true love
That lull'd ye to rest!
Up!—shake from your wing
Each hindering thing:
The dew of the night—
It would weigh down your flight;
And true love caresses—
O! leave them apart!

Vote: Lynx

[Ghatokaca]

I feel like there is no reason not to have Tier on the wagon right? We theoretically get another "flip" than if only people who have votes are on the wagon?

Tier's vote creates even more uneven pools, which is good if he's town and shitty if he's scum.

[Ghatokaca]

I disagree, TTH. We should try our best to make the division as uneven as possible. We ideally aim for 0 scum in the lynch wagon, but 1 is pretty decent. That means 2 scum in the remaining...what...4 players?

If "ifs" and "buts" were candy and nuts...

My plan gives no room for scum interference. 2-1 split isn't that bad of a thing anyway since it gives guidance to the investigative roles.

The worst outcome is a 2-1 split.

[Ghatokaca]

And why would we even care about scum interference anyways?

[fferyllt]

@modlady, would Tier's theoretical vote count as a vote by my ability? Totally understand if you cannot answer.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,



Only this and nothing more.

[TierShift]

I don't really care if I'm on the wagon, since I think I can more or less confirm I'm town later on. Well, not really, but close enough.

[Bookitty]

@Mod:

Could we please get a prod on Medea the Alien and Krystal Bald? Thanks so much!

[LynxKuroneko]

I hate that we have incomplete participation.

[Medea the Alien]

I'm here, I just am sort of checked out. OTOH, we bought new furniture and I'm interviewing for a job, so yay?

I'm content to sit off the wagon, see the results of lynx's ability, and then show myself town through my play.

I was actually expecting claims like Kthnx's, although not quite exactly what he claimed, because this is a ffery setup, there is ALWAYS negative utility to punish pure massclaiming early. I really wish nobody had claimed except lynx and policy.

[copper223]

So you think Kthx is town?

[Medea the Alien]

I do not have a town read there, the role claim in and of itself is null, as I'd expect fakeclaims to also be both a mix of positive and negative utility.

[Bookitty]

@Medea the Alien: Why were you expecting to townread me, please?

[copper223]

It seems outlandish to me to fakeclaim as Kthxbye did there, it's probably his real role.

As I said I'm not a fan of clearing people based on roles, but for their motives it's a different story and Kthx seems like the kind of player that would use his perceived immunity to try and get a scumread of his lynched.

Boo can you link me the OMGUS game with him you mentioned?

I agree with copper 518 fwiw

The top 3 posters in this game aren't hydras. I signed up for a spamfest! D:

[Catastrophe]

FTL is already on your wagon, and knowing what this is actually going to do, we should really be on it.

Not totally comfortable with BRantz, but there's not really anybody else I would suggest putting on instead. Why don't you want to self-vote again? That would allow us to get BRantz off the wagon and then we could hop on instead.

It seems outlandish to me to fakeclaim as Kthxbye did there

I'd like to hear some explanation on this. I don't understand why it's such a weird thought that scum would fakeclaim.

Also,

Yes, I did misread copper's post. Still not warm and fuzzy on him, but the push from Cata and BRantz onto me with the attempt to discredit my PR is just more scummy.

UNVOTE: copper

for now....

This is about as scummy a response as Kthx could have possibly given to our pressure. It's total OMGUS with no teeth behind it.

[TierShift]

I'd not want cat on this wagon because he's suggesting he should be.

[copper223]

@Cat
Because Kthx doesn't know if there is a way to check if his claim is real at this point, so it's even more of a gamble for scum to fakeclaim, and what's the upside? I agree it's OMGUS, but is that a scumtell for him?
