The Polka Heist [GAME OVER]

[Quin]

Hi, Quin ^^ I'm not going to accidentally bus you this game, because I'm town. <3

hi dizzy!

thank...you?

[Quin]

Does anyone have any reads? I don't.

I do.

Spoiler: show

2020 is the last year of the second decade of this century.

staking my claim here that epi is a 3p that increases in power the more people he can get to start talking about the end/start of the decade

[Quin]

sloonei please care
about me

You couldn't stop me if you tried.

: o

Dom, I've been wrong about you in a few games recently, I think. Have I been right about you in any?

I’m pretty sure I have a zero percent success rate on Dom.

i tell myself i have a good track record reading dom but then i forget to pay attention to whether my reads on him actually turn out correct

so there's basically an equal chance of me being great and terrible at it

[Quin]

Dys just followed my (pretty random) voting twice and called me town. I should be suspicious, but I’m rather flattered.

[Quin]

Where's Mac and Quin? My heart yearns.

Australia

That's ...so far away.

and also a little on fire at the moment

understatement of the fucking decade

I sincerely hope you guys are safe.

[Quin]

Dizzy, why did you describe "Mac and Quin" as such in that order?

Why not "Quin and Mac" ?

[TonyStarkPrime]

Yeah, it's a good idea to make players not play the game

Phony indignation.

[VOTE: Creature] aubergine

There it is.

[VOTE: Epignosis] aubergine

Creature acted exactly the same way last game where he was civ.

Recency bias.

[VOTE: DDL] aubergine

There’s not much going on but I don’t think I have a take on this besides everyone is wrong.

please explain

Epi’s wrong cause it’s not recency bias cause Creature has a pattern of acting like that. DDL is wrong for thinking that Epi is overreacting for tossing an early vote on Creature. Creature is wrong for being obnoxious.

Mac and I (and Glorfindel if I remember correctly) all live in Queensland which is okay right now. Most of the fires over the last few weeks have been in New South Wales and Victoria.

[Quin]

To clarify I don’t think it’s always a stupid question I actually think it’s one of those weird questions that can get a lot more information than appears but if they’re both scum then it’s just stupid.

I thought Wilgy was just quirky. I love how this is the most interesting thing in the game right now. =p

This is my take.

[Quin]

I'd like to lynch MacDougall Day 1. Can we all do that?

Why do you want to lynch Mac before Quin instead of Quin before Mac?

Mac is an asshole and Quin is nice.

that's debatable

...discourse!

like bruh.... what?

Do you have a problem with Dizzy for the first part?

[timmer]

I've thrown a vote on long con. Mostly to get him to give some opinions, I read his posts in the game so far and they're pretty empty of content.

[Quin]

Y'all should be ashamed tacky is much better than white and nerdy

Are you really always scum?

I'm literally never scum here, catch me on MU and I probably am. (Don't carry that meta over there with you I don't need any pro sig readers) but here? I've been mafia four maybe five times. (And I've won in all but one. )

I feel like I need to roll up a newspaper or something so I can whack you over the head every time you say something so easily construed as suspicious.

[Quin]

Let’s talk about vibes, baby

Vibes is nice, cause it makes you feel like you have something to hold on to. Also, it's nice when I dream about someone flipping as something in a mafia game, cause I've literally never been wrong when that happens. =p

vibes are good. my 2019 mafia games were all about them vibes, baby.

[Quin]

Plus didn't really feel much of anything when reading back on Sloon's ISO, and not the same vibes as last time when he actually was scum (mind you, that was a game where more happened).

[VOTE: Dom] aubergine

Literally just for voting me without much else.

Sloonei isn't as standoutish in this game as I'm used to. That doesn't necessarily mean anything though.

[Quin]

That's why it's weird. He's come in and made this little clump of odd statements that don't seem very focused. Like, no one was talking about inactives at all.

Weird is one thing, but is it scummy?

This is why we're talking about it, lol. I always struggle to remember how some people play because I'm so infrequently here. Its also why I don't throw votes around.

I don't think it's scummy. sig has his own language here, or something. I don't know how to read him because he habitually says things that can be easily misconstrued and gets him lynched early.

[Quin]

Yeah, it's a good idea to make players not play the game

All good points. Thank you.

TSP and timmer are town. TSP is supertowning a bit and timmer makes me feel things.

Dizzy is scum. It's.. a vibe. but some posts just stand out in a way that's kinda skeevy. [VOTE: dizzy] aubergine

[Quin]

my new years resolution is to actively participate in a mafia game in 2020

[TonyStarkPrime]

I have a MTG tournament to get to. Might be able to check in, but some thoughts on EOD:
Voting for DDL. That’s all on thoughts. I don’t mind a dizzy or LC Lynch, but dizzy has a high participation rate which is good for the game and I think I can read LC pretty well and I don’t have any real thoughts about him right now.

[TonyStarkPrime]

Less succinctly, on principle Id never lynch a d1 high poster unless I feel like they’re actively trying to steer the game in favor of scum. I don’t think that Dizzy has much of an agenda. Not to say that Dyz is thus always town, but it makes the D1 lynch less profitable.

[Long Con]

I'll try in a couple of hours

[Sloonei]

Moved my vote back to dyslexicon because I don't actually have a reason to suspect DDL. I felt underwhelmed by his presence, but upon review he only has 7 posts. That's not lying low. That's being absent.

I don't know if I actually want to lynch Dizzy either though.

[Sloonei]

Long Con's ISO is a better fit for the "underwhelming" bit.

Scum LC does not underwhelm.

I thought you'd care more about lynching the top poster on Day 1.

I was unaware Dizzy was the top poster.

On the one hand, my response is that that's not important because they've produced content that I found suspicious.
On the other hand, I do not want to make the mistake of suspecting a player simply because the volume of their posts overshadows others.

Either way, I am currently looking elsewhere. I've only been half playing this game so far.

[Dyslexicon]

Hi, Friends.

[Sloonei]

I could vote for timmer, but he doesn't grace us with his presence all that often, so lynching him on Day 1 feels no fun.

[Sloonei]

Yeah okay. [VOTE: timmer] aubergine so dizzy can play the game right now without being in the lead.

[sig]

anybody else getting some scum vibes from Sloonie? I'm not liking his logic for switching votes or the fact that he tied it which could equal a no lynch.

linki: I'm getting whiplash from how often you're switching tbh.

Can't argue with "vibe". So be my guest. I'm very suspicious, not just obvious town who's trying to get the somewhere. =p I don't hate your other two reads.

Yeah, Sloonei just dropped down my list a bit. The Dizzy vote isn't very in character for him (even if he says he didn't know Dizzy was the top poster), and the immediate LC followup just felt like an obligatory justification for not being on that wagon. Now he's on timmer.

Meh. You brought up our last scum game together which I'd completely forgotten about and it spooked me. That's kinda it. It was enough for Day 1. Sloonei looks worse now.

Literally the last game I played here, Timmer also played. =p
And I never get lynched D1 here, and I shouldn't either. I wouldn't mind it now though. This game isn't really catching my interest right now, and it would be illustrating a point about D1 town play or maybe even town play in general here. I realize every time how much of a different culture this site is. But now I'm getting passive aggressive and bad attitude-ish. So I'm going to try and see what more I can get out of the game, and then you can all decide to lynch me or not. ^^

I'm not lynching you today.

Also I'm gonna channel my inner DDL and say its scummy that Sloonie didn't vote in thread, it may have been Jack who was mafia who said that though, I wasn't really paying attention last game, but we'll give DDL credit yes we will.
