open 826; trist fall (over)

[Faker]

Daaaaamn. I was all getting set to defend myself to Faker and now it looks like game is over?

Sad face.

On some emotional, completely irrational level I still think it's you and Meg is fishing for reactions. I think you failed in that case.

So don't worry, the dream steamboat surges forward, powered by the rapidly depleting stores of delusion below deck that get shoveled into the furnace.

[skitter30]

Faker you basically did the same thing, and it was very frustrating go basically see you also strongarm the game into deciding what was going go happen today

This wasnt fair
Sorry

[Faker]

I appreciate the apology. I don't think it's entirely wrong, in that I did go against Pooky, who I was confident was town, and you also mentioned earlier you thought it was premature so clearly process was an issue. I talked with Pooky about the scumread, I did my research, I took into account other opinions, but I still chose to swing and I missed. I missed quite badly, and deserve a lot of flak for that.

[Thor Ragnarok]

Wow

Sorry Pooky, I sheep you next time

[Faker]

It's been an hour since Meg claimed scum. It's a completely natural span of time to reaction test. He totally wouldn't have said anything by now if he's town. Yes, there's still a chance. Absolutely there is.

Imagine being scumread so hard that even when the last scum claims, Faker still thinks you're scum

[Faker]

The dream boat may be out of delusionary coal and might have taken on some water but I've still got the paddle and all those carbs this morning have my arms working overtime

[Faker]

In total I've spent probably 4 hours reading over Meg and his previous games. I am as close to 100% confident as I get.

The Titanic is unsinkable, don't worry

[tris]

Faker's apple is v delicious. thnk u thnk u. and MegAzumarill's, well.... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz etc.

in my my sleep i mutter, "the mafia team of Infinity 324 and MegAzumarill win"

[the worst]

oh no. sleep well tris.

gg, congrats mafia!

pooky, please stay out of my games - i'll return the courtesy

[tris]

i will release the mafia thread in 48 hours or earlier if both say its ok, unless there are objections

[MegAzumarill]

No objections here

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

sorry tw :<

i dont know why you got mad at me I was mostly joking with you :<

[Faker]

It's okay, tris might be trolling, she'll post the real flip later

;_;

[Infinity 324]

no objections

[Faker]

Anyway, I think I made all the commentary I wanted to. I still think Koba threw, but I wound up blowing the game that we had left and that's on me. I think Meg played extremely well. Obviously there's genius somewhere in that Pooky wall even if I never saw it and wanted to reach through the monitor and figuratively strangle the stuffed bear. Egg on my face and apologies to the rest of the town.

[DkKoba]

sorry for being hasty

not sorry for the strategy

i like using my vote in mafia games liberally and if its replaced by a trust mechanic, that's no different.


Glad to see Faker saw the light at least about moving the game along

If people want a setup where people have agency, having a vote mechanic for allowing trusts could be always implemented to add a layer.

e.g. vote for X to be allowed to trust someone, requires some small number of votes to be allowed.

And then it could be passed around like a baton if someone declines.

idk just spitballing, because if you want people to play in a specific way, you need to design the setup that way - I think my strategy was perfectly valid for wanting to play fast and aggressive and leave scum in the dust/cause reactions to bring out towntells. I always have played unorthodox and will continue to.


also for the future, if you want to dodge someone, tell them post game instead of OGIing in the game thread, aight?

gamethrow requires intent to lose. "bad play" is never gamethrow.

[Faker]

If you say so. I'll let the report feature decide the issue, and gladly never interact with you onsite again.

[DkKoba]

when I was scum in this setup and I saw how townies townread the poeple who were trusted, I wanted to replicate that but on a more major scale by choosing 3 people :shrug:

if i chose more than half the playerlist you could argue i was throwing but there was clearly some care in curating my list :shrug:


i was wrong like i nearly always am on D1 so nice. (been a bit terribad lately anyways, good reset game)

[DkKoba]

If you say so. I'll let the report feature decide the issue, and gladly never interact with you onsite again.

fam you literally did the same thing but worse because it was "limlo"

i did what i did with the full knowledge that even if i fuck up there's a chance to win still.

and?

i still think your play was totally valid, albeit hasty.



its a flawed setup. don't hate the player eh?

[Faker]

If I agree with you, will you stop blatantly baiting to get under the skin of someone who has made it clear they never want to interact with you again?

Probably not, because you're reaping enjoyment from trolling, as intended.

[the worst]

It's a factor of this setup. To get mechanical information, you have to take the chance on someone being scum. We might have benefited from taking longer to make Infinity nervous (or just slow rolling the conftowns so that we could parse what that meant etc.), but it's overall not a bad strategy.

Trusting Enchant was just legitimately a good move.

[the worst]

They're kinda not wrong, Faker. Personality clashes are what they are though. You're totally within your rights to avoid them.

[Infinity 324]

pooky is pretty good at the game
