Open 527 - Hard Boiled: Dixon Hill's Maudlin Madness

[Natirasha]

Jesus fuck

Can I have one game where I don't have to catch up with like ten pages every four hours.

[Natirasha]

Yaaawn. Alright, so um. We doing stuff or not? baldeagle looks noobtown right now.

The shitposters are doing their usual routine.

Yaawwwn

[Natirasha]

Not yet. Half the player list hasn't even posted yet.

VOTE: Natirasha by the way.

[Natirasha]

That breadcrumb is so next level I wouldn't have ever seen that. >.>

That's not a good thing, TIP.

Bald Eagle, unless someone counterclaims you, Hider hiding behind you will just get you & Hider killed.

[Natirasha]

Obv hider claims..?

[Natirasha]

Tracker doesn't claim until Hider dies most like.

[Natirasha]

So I keep coming in here.

And I'm like.

"What should I do?"

Then I leave. Remind me never to join more than...four games ever again.

[Natirasha]

Hider do not claim

DO

NOT

CLAIM

As long as people are CAREFUL around L-1's it's fine.

But you're going for a breaking mechanism which is BS

The fact DP isn't here contesting it is bugging me

Pedit ALSO MARA IM OBVTOWN AND YOU HAVE ME AS PROBS WTF

How is it a BS breaking mechanism?

[Natirasha]

Because breaking mechanics suck and ruin the fun of the game

...seriously?

[Natirasha]

Fuck yeah I am Nati

I fought it last game, I'm fighting it this game.

...somethingsomethingplaytowinsomethingsomething...

[Natirasha]

The worst part is ns doesn't seem like the type of guy to care about breaking strats.

[Natirasha]

If it's any consolation, Cephrir, I'm only here because I was personally asked to by Syr.

[Natirasha]

Hi MAjiffy tell Mara I'm obvtown

You are really concerned about this, huh?

It's this thing him and TIP do.

Where they just say they are obvtown over and over and over again.

Like it means something.

[Natirasha]

TF gets a scumread for not saying I'm obvtown

Yeah yeah whatevs.

[Natirasha]

TF gets a scumread for not saying I'm obvtown

Yeah yeah whatevs.

Any reads?

Yeah, sorry. This game's been low on my priority list whatwith the nine other games I'm in right now. It's late, I'll get back to you tomorrow. Feel free to violently prod me if I don't.

[Natirasha]

Kay, time for some reads, I guess.

Sound of Silence-ffery always seems very town to me, this game is no exception. Trying to lead the town and generally being an inquisitor of sorts. I wanna hear from the easier-to-read half of the hydra.
Cephrir-Odd guy. I like half his posts, I don't like the other half. Null for now, with a minor town lean.
Shodan-He said I didn't know about his retardedness when I clearly do VERY defensive vs baldeagle, pinged my scumdar some. Hasn't done much otherwise. Probscum.
1baldeagle1-Claimed psych, no counter. NoobTown via default.
Mac-Claimed hider, no counter. Town via default.
Trolling Fairy-I always have trouble reading Cabd when he's not obv town. I like what I've seen, but it's not to obv-town status like in some games. I have next to zero experience with nacho, but Cabd as usual appears to be the primary head. I'm going to say null for now.
Cait Sith-I have little experience with either of these players. Contributions otherwise are solidish. #199 is probably the most town post in game. Otherwise, strong town read.
Violent Saxophone-by which I mean Mara. Contributions are mildly weak in comparison to some, but overall I'm getting a town vibe from the posting. nulltown.
BROseidon-I liked his entrance to the thread. Hasn't done much otherwise. Null.
SalmonellaDoctor-Others mentioned #222's oddness. Reading through his posts, the hydra has deceptively little content, mostly tunneling notscience--which is something I can get behind, but notscience is also a fucking fantastic bus target so that's like null or something. nullscum
TheIrishPope-He has a tell that he always does as town. I'm not pointing it out because I want to utilize in future games. An idiot, but unequivocally town.
notscience-He does this "I'm obvtown" thing every game. He's really hamming up on it this game though. Has about as little content as I do otherwise. His anti-setup gaming is anti-town at best and scummy at worse. Also, channelling his inner-Saki this game and shitting up the place. My current favorite scum.
Syryana-My role PM says that he's actually a serial killer/mod. We should lynch him.

That puts my reads at
conftown{Eagle, Mac}
Probtown{SoS, Cait Sith, TIP}
null{Cabd, Cephrir, BRO, Saxaphone}
Probscum{SD, ns, Shodan}
ConfScum{Syr}

[Natirasha]

Good read on me Nati

10/10

welcome to the scumreads with Mac as well

Yes, yes I know I'm speaking blasphemy because you're obvtown. :/ Can you go put on your town dress and go to the town hall and hop on the town stage and do the town dance for me? I promise I'll pay in town bucks, too.

I find GIF easier to read that you, yes. His style is more prone to making mistakes. I think I also got a good basis for his scum play from Rob13's normal a few months ago.

[Natirasha]

You have a basis for my scumplay there too

....

What color dress?

I forgot you were scum that game. You didn't leave an impression.

Yellow dress, obv.

[Natirasha]

You're talking to half the player who decided to steal the portal jump on day 3 of Paradox Prime.

At some point, I'll probably have the opportunity to remind you of this post.

I suppose I forgot about that as well. Thankfully, unless you're the tracker and claim right now, I don't think there is as much backfire potential this game.

[Natirasha]

I make people defy their preconceptions about town

Hi, resident ex-anti-town townie here, let me translate.

"I want to keep my meta open so scummy behavior becomes acceptable when I'm scum"

[Natirasha]

When I'm scum I play more protown

Not even joking

Now, stop stealing lines from my old playbook. Also, never make me go read what I wrote when I was 15 ever again. It hurts.

And, thanks, Ceph! I love being null. Null starts with an N which is the first letter of my name here AND IRL! Now, let's go about being awesome nulltells to each other, okay?

[Natirasha]

[Natirasha]

Cephrir gaining massive townpoints last few pages!

Whoa, guys, Ceph, did you just hammer? Um, I'll try to respond ASAP then @_@

[Natirasha]

I'm pretty offended by this.

Sorry, man, Cabd has a tendency to swallow his hydra partners whole.

What do you think of DoctorPepper pushing the NS slot and Salmonella defending it? Do you think that's a typical interaction with a scumbuddy?

Outside the obvious dissonance, I think there is something fishy going maybe? Maybe. It depends on ns's flip a little, but mostly I think it comes down to their friendships a little--NS and DP are pretty good friends outside the game, and I think they might do the sort of things I do with people like MafiaSSK/Vi--read them as town naturally.

#446 is aimed at me, I think ffery. And, no, to answer your question SD, I am putting less emphasis on the tunnel than I naturally do because ns is ns and I know if I was forced to scumteam with ns, I'd bus him hardcore.

~Thank god that wasn't hammer. I gotta go back to class soon, but I'm going to think on this. I may hammer when I get back, but I wanna make sure I'm not missing anything obvious.

[Natirasha]

Just reread ns's iso...it's kinda worse than what I was even remembering...

Also, retracting my last post RE: SalmonellaDoctor--SD is the one defending ns, DP is the one attacking him. I have no idea whats going on in their hydra thread, but I recommend they take some time and settle the issue.

In any case, if ns flips town, I wanna put the Doctor on the spotlight. If ns is scum, well, job well done I guess. The thing I like about this wagon is that both the conftown players are apparently on board-that means our townblock is probably going in the right direction.

P-EDIT: No, ns. I told you to stop using that excuse. I hate it as much as Sakura's selfhammering and Saki's super shitposting.

VOTE: Notscience

[Natirasha]

k

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

Someone just hammer me because it's clear this wagon isn't going to go off of me

I was going to keep my vote off you for now, but you're little "I'm always scummy" act was a trigger. Stop doing that in the future, okay?

[Natirasha]

Was this too much to ask?

Sorry, my last post RE: triggers is my excuse.

It's easier to act scummy then act insanely protown

Yes, I use to think the same way. Thankfully, some would say I figured out how to play better. I recommend you just start shadowing my play--you can have chaotic, spammy play without being blatantly anti-town.

[Natirasha]

Can't say I wasn't expecting the baldeagle kill. Remind me to rage some more at TIP later.

This is the part where the tracker claims, yes?

Edit: what, Cait?

[Natirasha]

? Hider dies if they hide behind scum as well I thought?

[Natirasha]

I wasn't killed?
Scum must love me

I wonder why.

[Natirasha]

? Hider dies if they hide behind scum as well I thought?

It's funny that you point this out. Because he hid behind you.

VOTE: Natirasha

Tee her hee.

I'm DEFINITELY the REAL tracker and I saw Mac going to Bro.

Tee hee hee.

[Natirasha]

VOTE: nat

Just in case.

See you on the other side Bro!

[Natirasha]

So this is where i post wifom right?

There is one partner we were planning on bussing asap if hider didn't die tonight. They are kinda a liability as scum.

Sorry, bro. We can chat in the dead thread.

[Natirasha]

Mother always said my son, 'do the noble thing'
You have to finish what you started, no matter what
Now, sit, watch and learn
'Its not how long you live, but what your morals say'
Can't keep your part of the deal
So don't say a word...don't say a word

Right ffery?

[Natirasha]

La dee daa not my fault.

[Natirasha]

I think Hider is just a bad role, personally. Has a lot of grey area and mechanical baggage that could be streamlined.

[Natirasha]

Just saying you and Mara should really work on that hydra dissonance if you hydra again, Jiffy. I think you guys made a mistake killing SoS over Cait Sith night 3 though.
