VOTE: borkjerfkin

What's a jerfkin and how do you bork it?

UNVOTE:

pretend I gave a witty fluff answer to that, but we actually have a non-fluff gamestate right now - any thoughts on page 1?

Confirmations and a conversation that went completely over my head.

I think you're scum btw Cabd.

Ffery's town. Cabd's not.

Why aren't you voting for Cabd if you think he's Scum?

No. My read on her is primarily due to her interaction with Gaiden. It looks like feigned paranoia, coupled with her explanation for reading you not seeming to have a way to scumread you, ultimately sounding like a way to townread/buddy you all game.

If this was the case, wouldn't it look odd for Sakura to proclaim a town read on Cabd for the whole game? Town reads change and evolve, so she'd back herself into a corner eventually. Do you think Scum-Sakura would do something so obvious?

Sakura's paranoia of me is well placed though.

Well, we played one other game together and i won using a newb card (it was my first game so i abused this newb card hard). Also, i'm just a sneaky bastard.

So do you think Sakura is lying about what she said in 96 about not letting her actions be dictated by paranoia?

[Skullduggery]

Why aren't you voting for Cabd if you think he's Scum?

Better question is why aren't YOU voting Cabd?

At what point did I indicate that I thought Cabd was Scum?

Clearly, each unvote decreases the day's health bar by 1%.

Oooh. Yeah, that sounds plausible.

Also, answer my question about Sakura, por favor.

[Skullduggery]

At which point did you indicate you thought Cabd wasn't scum?

I didn't -- and since I didn't, that means I should be okay with voting him? Can you explain that logical leap, please? I don't follow.

I apply the paranoia thing to everyone.

Including yourself? Does your alignment affect this strategy?

My logic is that you only don't have to be paranoid about someone if you already know their alignment. Then you either cooperate or go for the throat.

So according to this logic, because Sakura Hana is paranoid of you, that means she doesn't know your alignment, which means she's Town, right? Then why are you voting for her?

Why does one have to vote for who they think is scum?

Can't tell if this is a serious question or not...

And fine! If everyone wants me to vote VOTE: Cabd.

Why do you seem so reluctant to vote for a Scum read? You act like this is something that you're doing begrudgingly. I don't understand why.

[Skullduggery]

For the other question, of course. I am hyper paranoid (this helped me win a game in college once). the only thing my alignment changes is the type of paranoia I use. When town it is "everybody but me is scum unless otherwise noted" paranoia. When scum it is "all townies have PR unless otherwise noted" paranoia.

Is this a wrong stance to take?

Mmm. No, it makes sense.

Any suggestions on how we can tell the difference between your two brands of paranoia? What should we be looking for when we analyze your content?

Anyways, I was hammiing it up, Skullduggery. I was going to vote Cabd at some point, but I mean, I have to get in character.

Oh, right, gotcha. I think I'll refrain from doing anything in-character since that would make it super-obvious who I picked. >_>

If I had two votes, one of them would be on TAM.

Why?

And i'd pull sakura meta from "that one game nobody ever wants to mention by name" but I think there's enough of us here that played it we can remember for ourselves.

Care to provide a synopsis for the benefit of those of us who have no idea what the crap you're talking about?

This is different than any of those and more similar to that-which-must-not-be-named. I think she is town.

How does this decision about Sakura's alignment affect your opinion of Iso, if at all? Do you think his case on Sakura is coming from a good place?

Do you see scum influence on your wagon's formation?

ns.

You kinda saw how I overreacted towards him because he KNOWs that i am changing playstyles because of reasons i'm not gonna mention, yet he decides to push that anything different from my old meta means scum me.

Can you point to the specific posts where you felt that he said this?

[Skullduggery]

Awww, shucks. This was shaping up to be a pretty neat game too. On the bright side, it's better for a game to be abandoned on day one before we all get too invested in it.

My picks were:
1. Dist
2. Sheena Fujibayashi
3. Chester Burklight

I was a little worried at first because I figured I'd probably be Scum for picking a villain (and I hate playing Scum), but I went through with it anyway because Dist is pretty much the best character ever. I was delighted to find that I was Dist

and

Town. Talk about having your cake and eating it too. I was totally gonna shoot Gaiden on night one too!

Ah, well, it was fun while it lasted. Oh, and one more thing...

Spoiler:

10T - Skullduggery - Dist the Reaper (1-shot vig)

"It's Dist the

Rose

, you insufferable cretin! Get it right!"

[Skullduggery]

Chester respect!

*fist bump*

I think we know who the

real

hero of Phantasia is.
