I think that was my call, because I feared your skills.

Wow, nobody ever told me that. At least not in this site.

Why was I killed on n1 btw?

Barely played this, but good game.

I tried hard to save lapluie who was my BTSC teammate on day 1. Turns out all three competing wagons were civs. Oh well.

Same.

This was the scariest Courage villain imo

->3 curses
-> 1/3 of the players per curse

I feel like I'm playing chess with both my hands tied to a chair.

I'm making all the moves in my head but I can't move the pieces.

Colin not so much, this was posted much later after ignoring the phenomena for a while

Long Con didn't know what the list was. Genuine probably.


IDK I'm not getting a lot from this.

LC doesn't count since he's in the list.

Alright, so for some reason, it seems you are listing the players that reacted to King Ramses's songs in screams, horror, all caps, etc.
Some sort of insanification? (Insanification is sometimes called 'CURSE' on this site.) Since you were also affected, I don't expect confirmation or denial, but it looks like we're drawing attention.

DDL's got a list of player possibly affected by this curse. He clearly thinks it's pro-town speculation to chat about. Anyone want to speculate on it?

Let me throw an idea, albeit a little far-fetched.

Assuming at least one of the people in my list are bad (which statistically is VERY likely), the entire baddie team knew about it from the start.

I haven't checked, but do any reactions to the thing seem fabricated?

Hey, what's this list? I'm on a list.

If you don't know then chances are you accidentally joined it for fun.

We should be able to confirm that in a few hours.

This is interesting DDL, I'm watching.

It was confirmed a few minutes later, when LC just answered it.

I mean, if was confirmed that LC was not doing it just for fun.

In fact it might be good for the civilian faction if people understood it already and started discussing the ramifications of it to the indentities of our mafiosos/indies, whatever those ramifications may be.

Read Night 1 again.

From the start.

I can't.

@Marmot I may switch to Dom. I trust speedchuck is town, and he has a better read on Dom's meta than I do.

This post feels like bandwagoning.

I voted for you by default for not posting. Idk why others did.

I voted for the same reason lap. But now you are posting so I'm going to move my vote to the lowest poster nova who as far as I can see just posted his story and has posted nothing else. He was a low poster in a recent game I just played and was bad.

[VOTE: novaselinever] aubergine

This post feels like really lazy.

Civ Juliets is not lazy iirc.

ColinIsCool wrote: ↑Tue Jun 19, 2018 6:07 pm INH’s post tonally was so false to me that I don’t think I’ll be defaulting to nova.
I dunno about Dom. Hard to read I guess.

Epignosis is not in this game but if he was I feel like he's have stuff to nitpick about this word usage.

I think.

I guess.

I want to clarify something about my town meta, DDL. When I'm town I'm a lot more adventurous with my posts, sometimes at the risk of getting lynched early. Also If I were on a scum team with Marmot, I would not be communicating with him in thread like this, I would use our BTSC. I'm insulted that you think I would be that obvious.

You don't need to be on a scum team with Marmot. If both he and Speed are civ, all you need to do is bandwagon on their bad decision.

I didn't even hear it tbh.

I noticed the site forces a box in your chatbox if you quote an "@" with a name after, since it thinks it's you who's trying to @ someone and not just a quote. Might be what happend

You took way fewer months to notice that than I originally did.

And regardless of that, how is the speed of a wagon and the alignment of the person getting wagoned connected?

Depends entirely on the alignment of the people in the rest of the competing wagons.

He said he flipped a coin between someone with 1 post and someone without a post to their name, and when lap did show up he expressed his reasoning being because she hadn’t posted.

So that coinflip was less than honest then

My reason for putting lap in that category was because she hadn’t posted. The “coinflip” was arbitrary. It was a prod, not a death sentence.

She was leading in votes 1 hour before the day end. It isn't a death sentence per se but it's the equivalent of putting her in the guillotine and then asking the crowd if they are sure about it.

She didn’t have votes before me. I didn’t ask for a bandwagon.

You participated in it.

A wagon on an inactive who is easy to lynch.

You are as responsible for it as the rest.

ColinIsCool wrote: ↑Tue Jun 19, 2018 8:07 pm I think voting off wagon is pretty NAI, but I did get lynched for it in AG and I was scum. It does speak to a sort of wanting to avoid responsibility for the result, but does Kyle play like that?

Day 1 Kyle is a hot mess.

As the game progresses he slowly finds himself and starts slowly crawling out of the dumpster.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Chances of town winning a common vanilla game by RNG'ing are something close to 30%. For the game to be balanced and get closer to the 50%, it takes actual scumhunting.

(actually catching up now)

ColinIsCool wrote: ↑Tue Jun 19, 2018 1:22 pm I don’t really understand the rationale behind a random vote or the endorsement of it by other players.

Statistically, if you look at the odds of a properly balanced mafia game, Town wins by randomization and roles more often than they do if hunting. The latter is susceptible to being fooled. The former is not.

However, odds of victory do not matter. We are here to play mafia, not roulette. Victory means nothing if we didn't hunt it down and strangle it.

Town loses more often than not if we RNG every vote.

I've ran a simulation of that before.

And not caring = bad especially if both lap and Dom are civ.

Like it's not so much that Nutella is flip-flopping it's likie she doesn't really care that much. She's relaxed and is not pushing her opinions so hard. Nutella isn't really an aggressive person but she is a really more opionated from I remember.

Ties are fun

Hmm I just ISO'd nutella and don't feel so good. She feels detatched.

Dom is saying some things that make me feel bad but the way he's shitting on Sig's logic reminds me of the Champions game where he was a civ. Dom is just stubborn like that.

If it helps nova vanished in another game I'm playing though I don't know his alignment there.
