Open 647: Diffusion of Power (Game Over)

[Persivul]

I'm not leading this show so who cares. Decide whatever you want to do but I'm sticking with no lynch.

As it takes unanimous action by town to lynch scum, if you're town you are in fact leading this show by insisting on no lynch.

[Persivul]

why ranger over chip butty?

The way she scum read cakez all game but when it came time to lynch, she not only wouldn't vote him, she made some defenses of him.

Bussing is common, but not in mylo/lylo. At that point scum can taste the win and would rather hope a wagon on one of their own will fall apart than join it themselves. There's a very good chance that yesterday's lynch wagon was all town.

[Transcend]

the thing is:

get the head of the snake before you get the body

chip is the (lazy) body. but ranger is the ferocious head and will strike at a moments notice, inflicting you with her fangs. injecting her venom into your soul.

[Persivul]

Shameless plug: My game, The Purge Mafia, is open for signups in the Mini Theme queue. It's a unique setup. I ran it at another site to rave reviews.

[MURDERCAT]

If Karnos wants to l-1 and it sits I'll hammer

UNVOTE:

[Transcend]

boys i think we have this game won

they aren't saying anything at all lol

[MURDERCAT]

You two will deserve the win if you are both town and you are right.

[karnos]

If Karnos wants to l-1 and it sits I'll hammer

UNVOTE:

My worry is chip at this point. If he is scum with someone other than ranger, I'd fully expect him to quick hammer as soon as I vote. On the other hand, you can't be scum if ranger is town, so I am not concerned about you hammering.

Basically if chip is scum with {transcend, or persivul} voting ranger right now is handing the game to the scum.

[MURDERCAT]

Yes I agree, I'm not saying you should vote without thought

[karnos]

OTOH, the idea of waiting until Aug 10 for Chip to get off V/LA just sounds incredibly boring. Ugh, I feel like it's a coin flip wither way, I'm willing to go for it.

YOLO!

VOTE: Ranger

[Transcend]

Dear God please don't let it be

1. Karnos + Pers

2. Pers + Chip

3. Karnos + Chip

I'm banking on ranger + chip tho so just hammer and give the scum a congratulatory handshake if it's not her.

it's gotta be her tho

[MURDERCAT]

not hammering

[Transcend]

Pussy

[MURDERCAT]

lmao, just saying, not quick hammering

[Transcend]

That's cool and all, but my question is: why?

[MURDERCAT]

Why am I not hammering? I want to see if chip ranger say anything

[Persivul]

I'm banking on ranger + chip tho so just hammer and give the scum a congratulatory handshake if it's not her.

Yep.

[MURDERCAT]

But if you guys are scum I'll feel bad about myself. My goal isn't actually to win games it's to avoid looking stupid

[Chip Butty]

Sorry, computer conked out again almost as soon as I got it back. Hopefully will be okay now. Maybe time to buy a new one...

[Chip Butty]

Should be able to read up in a few hours...

[Transcend]

No blitz from Chip. Which means either Karnos+Persivul are scum or Ranger is scum.

I strongly believe that

1. Karnos' + Shotty's D1 was not scum theater

2. The two of them hardbussed SirCakez.

Ranger is about 99.8% confirmed scum here.

[Transcend]

What a recovery this town made imo.

[Ranger]

If it's a scumflip, and that would point to Chip Butty & Ranger as partners, or a bus.

No duh it's a bus.

Not Voting (3): SirCakez, Ranger, Chip Butty

^That would suggest that literally the entire scumteam was Not Voting.
Not, "not voting the lynch".

Not voting, at all.

Yeah, that doesn't happen.

SirCakez was bussed.

The ONLY question is whether it was by one scumbuddy, or by two.

I meant it when I said to take things slow, because I wanted to look things over.
In particular, there's a project I want to undertake for this game which I think is REALLY important: Transcend meta. For one simple reason.

Also if you are snowing me transcend I hate you and we aren't friends anymore, just saying

I actually think this is the case. Why?

Because Transcend had a Don Corelone nomination for "crazy scum play".
Transcend's play this game has been crazy.
It also has not looked, even remotely, whatsoever, like I've seen any of his towngames look like.
But this is from memory.

I didn't check out the games overnight since I wasn't around for most of the night phase. (Check my sitewide activity if you don't believe me.)
But I'm REASONABLY certain that in the game Transcend got his Don Corelone nomination for, there was at least one, maybe even two, busses going around.

FURTHERMORE, what I wanted to do is give SirCakez a good thorough iso, because something he'll do is push his scumbuddy, without actually applying pressure there to lynch. A player fitting this profile is Transcend, but I only have a cursory glance to confirm this, so I say it again.

I said it yesterday, and I mean it double this time:
Take. time. Don't rush.

Transcend seemed awfully eager to get that lynch, as if he knew it was a scum flip, and he could use it to encourage reckless voting on a town player today.
I'll have none of it, especially when we now have the iso of a scum player to help.
