[GAME OVER] Chicka Chicka 1, 2, 3

[Dragon D. Luffy]

LC has a point.

[Dragon D. Luffy]

Though I doubt its clear-cut like that.

[Dom]

I suppose speedchuck could be the Old Testament number too, but the verses he has spoofed are not all OT verses. I doubt he is the Pope number, but that would be a good one to fake role claim. You would imply you were impervious to NKs, making people less likely to use one on you. Of course, if we thought he really was the Pope, we could simply lynch him, making his immunity to NKs a non-issue.

Side note, whoever gets #42, don't wait until the very end of the game to push that button! Trust me on that one...

i can also vouch for this,.




What a good game.


Also I think Golden is relating religion with superstition?

[Golden]

Why 13?

The first quote suggests its a role where the person who targets Speedchuck is affected negatively. 13 isn't the only role that does that, but it's particularly extreme, and I also note that it was the first thing on speed's radar to say.

The third quote is psalm 13.

Not sure about how the Timothy quote fits in, but two out of three aint bad.

[Dom]

why does speed want everyone to know who he is tho

[juliets]

LC has a good point.

[Golden]

Everyone is saying 'LC has a point' like they are shocked or something

[Elohcin]

I think it's silly and I'm ignoring it. I tried, but can't discern his role from his posts so I'm not giving it any more thought.

[Elohcin]

Sorry, I didn't get the linki. I was referencing chuck in my post

[Spacedaisy]

its the Beatles, I'm voting yes. Plus who knows, I might end up rolling 64 later in the game. It would suck to have accidentally voted to
Kill myself.

LC never has good points. He has self-serving points people think are good points.

[Spacedaisy]

if you say so LC.

No, I make the good points that are also self-serving.

Sometimes. Sometimes not.

What team do you think it would be best to try and eliminate? Let's see if we get an answer or a non-answer.

You're going to get a non-answer. Or an answer, depending on how you take it.

I don't care.

Long Con, I've seen that colour on you somewhere before...

Oh no... I'm green now. I am saddened.

Golden, you get all the points. I am 13.

The timothy passage was just a pointer to tell people to look at the scriptures, that they would help. The other two clues you nailed. Congrats! I will not be voting for you this game.

[nutella]

Cool, good to know.

[Spacedaisy]

Long Con, I've seen that colour on you somewhere before...

Don't be saddened, Alex changed all the groups' color schemes. He picked that color for the Graphics Team specifically to match your avatar.

That is very thoughtful, but this avatar is not long for this world. It was created to match the old colour scheme.

wolves are Marmot, colonialbob, Sloonei and insertnamehere

[juliets]

Good morning everyone, rico maybe someone has asked this but what makes you think there is a mafia? Also, just fyi for everyone else, rico is emulating a style he uses when playing popcorn mafia which is kind of a speed mafia played on mafia universe so it's a style I've seen before. That info probably doesn't make a difference on how you feel about what he is doing but I did want to share that I've seen it before. It was not indicative as to whether he was bad or good, he did it as both factions.

[speedchuck]

There is no bad or good in this game, so I doubt it says anything about Rico.

But there are no wolves, witches, or mafia. And that makes this discourse useless.

Yes, that is also my belief which is why I asked him the question I did. I was only sharing what I knew in the spirit of openness.

One of the guys he's mentioning is on my team currently, and Rico is not on my team. When the time comes, he is my top choice for lynching.

[Spacedaisy]

[mention]Long Con[/mention] Check your PMs, Alex sent you something he needs some feedback on.

[Sloonei]

Well I can get behind roleplaying and helping my current team. Besides you never know when it will be your last one.

And as you said there is probably global mechanics that are affected by we play now...

Still no idea on how to lynch people tho.

I don't have any idea either so I'm glad I'm not alone. Golden, it's early and I'm probably missing something big but how will we know who hasn't shifted positions? And why would those people be high on our list to lynch or night kill?

Because they haven't died yet (when you die you shift). And to the second... human nature. In a game where there's 100 roles to cycle through and only 21 people, someone staying alive in a single role will begin to stand out eventually.

Where does this information come from?

[Nachomamma8]

As a bit of an insight into the approach I will probably take to this game, don't think that it's actual mafia and thus won't actually be treating it as such - we are all either scum or scum in transition and so there's no real reason for what I can tell to pretend that we are either town or mafia - we are all just people trying to survive in this harsh harsh world (unless we get a baddie serial killer role!). As of the first day, my plan is to vote either a lurker or someone who rubs me wrong - for days after that I'll probably participate in alliances with people who seem fun/cool/allianceable!

Ah, thank you. I was reading and re-reading every G-man post in this thread and my role card. Never thought to check the sign up thread.

And of course, by G-man I mean GAME-MAN.

We aren't all necessarily trying to survive in our current form, however, at least at this early stage. I think this game morphs over time. One thing to be wary of is teams growing to big. At the moment, my guess is things are balanced, but one team could easily gain an advantage if they manage to grow and keep members alive. I don't think it's as simple as treating everyone the same and assuming there aren't going to be people who it's more in your interests to knock off.

[Sloonei]

With the knowledge that we're all going to be getting new roles upon "death", I would suggest that it's beneficial to the eventual town team if we all state our roles/numbers right now, before anyone has died and gone unnumbered. The better we keep track of which numbers have been used up, the more footing we'll have later on.

But I'm not actually going to tell you what number I am because I don't know if I agree with a word I just said.

[Spacedaisy]

There is no town/mafia alignments. Just a bunch of teams all trying to win and one SK. And until deaths start occurring we won't even know if the SK is out there yet or not.

[Sloonei]

I am kind of envisioning the game eventually trickling down to a more-or-less standard Town vs. Scum mafia game, with one team in the majority trying to save themselves from a small minority team. I suppose this could go in any direction though. I assume 1 is being held for the end of the game by THE GAME.

FOR SOMEONE WHO IS ABLE TO FIND SMALL IMPERFECTIONS, YOU SURE AREN'T PAYING ATTENTION.

BWAA! BWAA! BWAA!

YOUR ATTENTION! YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE.

LET ME MAKE IT ABUNDANTLY CLEAR ONCE MORE TO YOU ALL THAT THERE ARE NO CIVVIES OR BADDIES IN THIS SIMULATION, NOR WILL THERE EVER BE. AS IN THE REAL WORLD, GOOD AND BAD ARE COMPLETELY RELATIVE TO THE INDIVIDUAL HERE. THE ONLY 'GOOD GUYS' IN EXISTENCE IS THE TEAM YOU ARE ON AT THE TIME. STAGE 2 OF THE SIMULATION WILL NOT EVOLVE INTO A STANDARD GAME LIKE YOU ARE USED TO. LET THAT SINK IN. YOUR SKULLS ARE INDEED A MERE 6.5 MILLIMETERS OR 7.1 MILLIMETERS THICK, FOR MEN AND WOMEN RESPECTIVELY. PLEASE DON'T MAKE IT SEEM ANY GREATER A CHALLENGE THAN THAT. I'M IN MY YELLOW PHASE AND MY PATIENCE IS SHORT.

IF YOU WISH TO BE OPEN WITH EACH OTHER ABOUT YOUR ROLES, THAT IS FAIR GAME. JUST KEEP IN MIND THAT YOU MUST TRUST THAT EACH OF YOU IS TELLING THE TRUTH ABOUT SUCH INFORMATION. THERE ARE, AFTER ALL, CERTAIN ROLES THAT IT WOULD BE ADVANTAGEOUS, STRATEGIC EVEN, TO CLAIM EARLY ON. THERE ARE ONLY A FEW WAYS TO VERIFY ANYONE'S ROLE BUT I'M NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO MY PART IN THAT SHORT LIST UNTIL STAGE 2 ROLLS AROUND.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, FEEL FREE TO ASK THEM. IF I AM FEELING GRACIOUS, I SHALL GRANT YOU WISDOM BEYOND YOUR WILDEST DREAMS. I COULD ALSO REJECT YOU LIKE THE REPUGNANT CLASS-3 BOTTOM-DWELLERS THAT YOU ARE. EITHER WAY, ONE OF US GETS SOMETHING OUT OF IT.

ENOUGH FOR NOW. THE ONE CALLING HIMSELF 'SLOONEI' IS HEREBY PUNISHED FOR HIS ARROGANCE AND DEFIANCE OF MY MANDATE TO RULE OVER YOU UNQUESTIONED. BEGINNING WITH THE DAY 1 POST, SLOONEI SHALL RECEIVE A PENALTY VOTE FOR ANY POST THAT IS NOT 100% GRAMMATICALLY CORRECT. LET THIS BE A LESSON TO THE REST OF YOU- TEST ME AND I WILL PUNISH YOU.

[Sloonei]

I was not trying to imply that any team in this game is the designated GOOD or the designated BAD, but that eventually the numbers (heh) might shake out so that we are in a situation where the game might be functioning as a regular mafia game. Though I suppose every team having BTSC available to them makes that less likely to work out.

I'm trying to survive in my current form. I'd recommend to most people to try to survive as well - you'll *probably* have a better chance of winning!

I'm sure the landscape of the game will change as things progress - don't think it will ever change into "mafia" as Sloonei seems to think and am glad it will never change into mafia but I've laid out the approach I think is best for this moment, doesn't mean it will dictate my play for the rest of the game.

[Nachomamma8]

Sloonei gets a penalty vote every time he makes a grammatically incorrect post or he gets a penalty vote if he messed up period?

If it's the former I think we might be able to bury him via reported infractions, and even if causing his death invited my own I think it might be excellent fun to play grammar Nazi for a little while.

Why does surviving in current form increase a persons chances of winning?

I won't incur any penalty votes. My English degree finally has value.
