WWE Believe in the Shield

UNVOTE:

I haven't read anything yet, but I saw Nexus offered a deadline extension. That sounds like a good idea.

[Rubicon]

I just realized The Goat is in this game. I counterclaim whatever he's claiming.

[Rubicon]

Don't think anybody's lying, Monkey - the mod just extended the deadline this morning.

I've skimmed like a third of this thread. Going to spend the next hour going through it in more detail.

[Rubicon]

could someone give me a few sentences summarizing the important events in this game? "This is multiball", "someone's been daykilling", "Nero claimed vig", that kind of thing.

[Rubicon]

GCBC was daykilled.
GCBC's death scene says he was "dropped" by the Shield.

So this is multiball and one scum faction can daykill?

[Rubicon]

I wonder if, if they are a group rather than a single slot, the shield day kills weaken in some form when we take out one of their members since, you know, you kinda need 3 people to do a triple powerbomb.

All theory until we catch a/the shield

I know nothing about wrestling but this makes a great deal of sense.

I'm kind of seeing scum-Monkey in the early exchange with AA9. The fandango comment wasn't scummy, but the defense ("I was calling him out for breadcrumbing") is weird.

Monkey's breadcruming early on Day1 appears like he is trying to fish for town PR's. He usually has a tendency to scum slip (just like the early claims on those games from the links i have provided) When I started asking him about this reason for role-fishing, He attacked me with my meta instead of defending with actual content, That come out really odd as expected. And anywayz, I know that a Town monkey could also possibliy capable of doing something this stupid, all I was waiting for him to come with a proper defence which he clearly didn't do as of this moment.

You can question the degree to which Monkey was fishing and how scummy it is, but the fact of the matter is he was, by definition, fishing for Duzn's role. The retroactive "It looked like he was posting under role-related restrictions!" justification is completely bogus, and his immediate reaction to arc's comment was to attempt to discredit her by negatively referencing her meta (which itself is not indicative of anything because Arc's meta is all over the place).

These are good points.

The guy darthe replaced.

I'm up to page 50, guys

[Rubicon]

I agree with what Darthe said about dicks.

(read up to start of d2)

[Rubicon]

Darthe, Desporado, Nero and (less strongly) mastin2 are probably town.

Goat, Monkey and mutley are my scum group at the moment. I agree that this looks similar to scum-P_A when I meta'd her during Jason's game, but it also looks a bit like her play in Jason's game where she was town. I didn't really like her votes there, either. So, @mastin: Convince me?

[Rubicon]

Oh yeah, ferret is probtown too.

Had a townread on Sven up until his last D1 post.

[Rubicon]

Fuck it, I will get the ball rolling here. I am sin cara.

unvote vote mac

I withdrawal my townread, and my God have mercy on your soul.

[Rubicon]

You don't think 2584 was a huge, whopping scum tell, mastin?

[Rubicon]

What does sin cara do?

If Sin Cara does anything other than bounce around on a trampoline, I'll die of surprise.

In fact, I'm...kinda surprised he'd...even be in the game.

*suspicious look*

explain this?

[Rubicon]

Vote Darthe

(back to L-1)

Mastin's probtown but I don't really see why I should sheep him on this.

[Rubicon]

Even if you think my logic is wrong, I have that immensely-strong gut townread on him, and that's not something you should ignore.

This is the only part of your list that would make me second guess Darthe being scum.

-The composition of the wagon is crap, and the reasons for wanting him lynched are worse than the reasons I've presented for keeping him alive.

You're definitely right that the wagon looks like 30% scum to me, but this is multiball. If anything, that should tell you that one of the teams believes Darthe is scum.

[Rubicon]

The thing about Darthe's post is it looks a LOT like he was given a safe flavor claim but not a safe PR claim. Thoughts, mastin? Talk me out of it and I'll vote penguin.

(I'm vaguely concerned I might be TRIPLE POWERBOMBED for this post, but meh.)

[Rubicon]

and the disappearing act

town motive for that, mastin?

[Rubicon]

no

[Rubicon]

VOTE: mastin2

[Rubicon]

VOTE: Mac

noice

[Rubicon]

Hey Nero, were you responsible for that surprise match thing?

[Rubicon]

vote:mac

should have waited to look at reactions but meh.

meh indeed. Speedlynch = no possible SHIELD kill, so let's go

nah, I've learned my lesson about quicklynches.

[Rubicon]

Reds probably can't triple powerbomb anymore?

[Rubicon]

Huge apology for not being around much - as I told nexus I've been kind of half-paying-attention all my games since graduation this weekend. But I've still been skimming the thread so I could have submitted a kill if I were scum. Even if I weren't going to be around, I would've just let nexus know in advance who I wanted to kill.

I'd like to toss out the idea that reds might be no-killing for game mechanic reasons.

pidgey, who did you target the night you were blocked?

Also, intent to hammer.

[Rubicon]

Holy crap, scum got steamrolled this game.

Awesome job by the investigative roles.

[Rubicon]

No one but me targeted Nero, ha. I deduced that he was behind the mastin2-Desperado match, which looked like a town role and meant he probably didn't have any blockable night actions, so I jailed him every night.

[Rubicon]

Who jumped on GCBC right after he made his "dayvig"? Desperado, Krab, and The Goat. There is Shield scum in that trio. Guaranteed.

(Disclaimer: Guarantees may not actually be guaranteed.)

I was sure there'd be red scum in that wagon, too. Weird that they went straight to dayvigging when they could have got him lynched.
