Hmm. Ugly.

Yeah soupfly, the quicklynch attempt by Setael there was pretty blatant. I was disapointed that none of the town saw fit to point it out. If you guys had stopped and talked for a couple of days, there was no way whatsoever Setael could have explained her actions. I'm not going to flame you, because you probably feel pretty bad right now. But yeah. I thought we could get a win out of the on the last day, when d3s claimed cop. (I'd had some debate with Ether when we were both out as to whether there would be a cop, and was nearly becoming convinced there wouldn't be). I think the setup as it was slightly favours the town.

Not especially overjoyed with my play in this game. Mexal, Ether, Thin Man played decently I thought. Simenon was even better. Well done to scum in this game, minus AlyG. I enjoyed it for the most part, though I suppose I had the luxury of not coming under any pressure at all day 3. (Apparently, if the weak doc protected Stark, they would actually survive, so technically I could have been Stark still. So I wasn't confirmed innocent).

So... I'm guessing Simenon is Thin_Man. I'm confused why people create alts and then try so hard to make sure everyone knows all their alts... kind of defeats the purpose. It also creates cliques here where those who know each others' alts have personal connections and inside jokes that make the rest of us feel like outsiders. I'd complain, except after this game I know a couple of alts so I'm one step closer to being one of the excluders rather than the excluded.

btw, where is the titles thread?

Thin_Man is Primate. I wasn't supposed to know about Rhapsody (Patrick originally wasn't either but he tried to /out from Farscape so she set him straight). Quagmire just claimed Chipper Pear today, apparently. There are some other people you can probably do homework on; one has specifically forbidden me from mentioning him but he's findable.

I remember when Thok was trying to figure out who TS was before we had the IP records on Wikiscum...good times.

'Scum definitely
has
some implicit hierarchies. I have a pretty good reputation, and it's more as a chatroom personality than as a player. Feel free to come to ScumChat sometime if you have AIM.

Jesus, that was a crap endgame.

I pretty much nailed Setael down as traitor when I hinted cop then voted Shanba and he put the 2nd vote on immediately following. I was pretty sure Sarc, in 762, thought he was hammering, then recoiled. From there i was suspicious of Sarc-scum Setael-traitor, but it's a huge fcuking shame I didn't say anything at the time. God, how stupid I was.

Before I knew it, soupfly set on Shanba, Setael followed, and at that point I was "WTF", no whether Setael was traitor (for putting Shanba L-1) or soupfly was traitor (for not pulling off after Setael's vote). Completely lost my head there, not knowing what to do to prevent the scum quicklynch.

All-in-all, pretty decent game. In case anyone is wondering, the reason it looked like I wasn't talking as much as I normally do was that my primary focus was to stay as low as possible so as to survive to endgame with a few extra investigations before my claim. Hence the excuses about being busy and inactive and whatnot, which were completely fabricated. It actually got pretty tense earlier when Patrick and Mexal suddenly turned on me, I thought I'd have to claim then and there.

Live and learn, I guess.

I created mine because people on this site are sufficiently complacent around experienced players that it really irritates me. Creating alts then making it clear that people should know who you are strikes me as pointless, though I know people will do it. As for ether's point that it removes camaraderie, thats one of the major points in favour of it, to my mind. Camaraderie is just an excuse to freeride the player you're friends with.

As for this game, I think I'm lucky I died when I did. I was pretty much instrumental in catching a scum day 1 then died as a vanilla townie night 1, and it doesn't really get better than that. I think I would have screwed up if I'd been alive much longer, though. Mexals insistence that I just randomly lucked into lynching a scum d1 was pretty much 100% wrong.

:(

Oh well. You win some you lose some.

For the record, I had no idea what I was going to write for the third part, i.e. the attack on Rhap/Sarc. I'm sure I woulda found something, but it probably wouldn't have been stellar. I did rather avoid the subject when something else gave me a legitimate excuse.

Game shoulda ended at then end of the day. Making Sarc have to kill correctly too was a bit harsh.

I'm annoyed Soupfly voted me, but eh. What can I say. You win some, you lose some.

Sorry Ether :(

@Ether: Interesting that you use the word "hierarchy". I chose the word "clique" but your choice of word reveals your mindset which is nice I guess. Thanks for the invite, but we peasants try to keep our place, and not disturb the upper classes in the AIM chatrooms.

Setael, er, I don't think I'm being clear? Clique is probably a better word than hierarchy, except that there's an inside joke in which I am distinctly
not
part of a clique, and for all practical intents and purposes that's inaccurate.

It bothers me that you'd speak for "we peasants." I should reiterate that I came to the chat on my first day here, and I'm sure as hell not high-profile for my forum activities. ScumChat is
not
the place where people who've earned it first lord around.

Thin_Man, AIM conversation in mind, would you have felt differently about my behavior toward you if you were on Primate? For the record, it was, uh, kind of obvious who you were.

D3s, why did you investigate Mexal?

Shanba, thanks for replacing, though I do wish you'd fought harder. Just what
did
you do in that newbie game with Soupfly? o.0

This seems unecessarily cynical. Why do you think you're being looked down on?

I don't think I'm being looked down on. I'm pointing out the fact that if people are thinking in terms of there being a "hierarchy" then that means they are creating a caste system here which is very exclusive. And lame.

Aw, don't be silly. Come to scumchat. Then we can assimilate you, reprogram your brain and let you loose on the boards as some sort of benevolent monster thing.

That actually does sound fun. If it involves goodies as well, I'll be right over.

It's not that I care that people who scumchat become friends, I just think when you make inside jokes and refer to each other's alts and real names in game when the other players won't understand (I see this happen with Simenon all the time) you are excluding other players. Besides the fact that it's lame, it can negatively affect a game.
