linki: Did you have anything to say about them, nutella?
Wolbre was lynched for really silly reasons. That's on him as much as on the people that were after him. The counter wagons were... wilgy and Sloonei I think? One is a mislynch waiting to happen (or a lucky mafia lynch, IDK with lurker wilgy) and the other is Sloonei. Which no. Bad lynch.

Pulling something out of that rapid-fire linki-filled mess in which the guy who got lynched was daring the thread to lynch him doesn't seem like the best use of my time.

I sure did, I made a multi quote post or two after the lynch. And wait, I thought you suspected sloonei??

speedchuck wrote: ↑Mon Dec 10, 2018 4:02 pm Tranq is okay in my book right now. There's a lack of solid content there, but it's very blunt. "Yeah I'm not looking at that right now." He's very comfy in his boots.

Hmm yeah I guess you're right as long as he's comfortable blending into the background and avoiding any suspicion and not helping the civ cause at all, Tranq's good to go.

Authenticity is everything.

Yeah Tranq seemed really authentic when he was like "wow golly gosh is everyone voting randomly for these meaningless poll options shucky darns"

I'm curious as to what stances (other than Sloonei) you've seen that are indirect or backhanded. Cite your sources.
I'm also wondering why any of this would point to me being scum.

So you admit that the comments regarding sloonei were. ok. Idk if I have other examples since you haven't said anything else besides thinking wolbre was amusing.

The way I see, Wolbre made a direct challenge against a force no one controls and few really comprehend: people's will to make stupid wagons on Day 1. You don't challenge Day 1 like that. You must respect it, bow to it, do what it wants. It's an unforgiving mistress. If will spot a player making fun of its wrath and bury them under 10 bandwagon votes.

I don't blame anyone for voting Wolbre tbh. He literally begged for it. Though I'd still find it useful to figure out any people who did it while stating terrible reasons for it.

I skimmed that EOD and it was some of the most hilarious play I've ever seen. Terrible decisions were made, but it was hilarious. @wolbre04 you are my hero this game. Please play more with us.

Lol u mafia

Are his teammates just like "ok bye rip"? Do hosts try to give him good roles on purpose? Does he ever lie anyway and then everyone believes him? I guess that would defeat the purpose of his whole thing, but it's possible for him to do. This is a great thing to learn exists.

nutella wrote: ↑Mon Dec 10, 2018 1:17 am Tbh I would say that the above posts look like preemptive TMI/ass-covering, but TMI isn't as much a thing in a two-scum-team game so idk and also sloonei's town but idk about luna.

Too much flip-flopping. I think nutella is bad.

Spoiler: show

nutella wrote: ↑Mon Dec 10, 2018 1:18 am Anyway I had a bad taste in my mouth for most of that lynch and I don't think we actually had good options on the table. Tranq or Speed would have been my preferences.

timmer wrote: ↑Sun Dec 09, 2018 3:02 pm So I guess if when sig said bloodthirsty, he meant aggressive, I can sort of see what he is seeing in SVS' posts, she did escalate to a vote against lunalee pretty quickly. Thing is, I remember SVS being like that, taking a stand and landing it firmly, so I'm not seeing a baddie inclination here. Also, SVS has asked several times for people to clarify whether this sounds like civ luna, and no one has responded, which echoes for me back to my last game where I had a lot of new faces to figure out and kept asking for advice on metas.

So I'm not suspecting SVS, but I at least see what sig had noticed.

Hypocrisy is a staple of thr civilian playbook

I've been half-keeping up and I don't think I'm that lost or anything (thought a few pages behind) but I really can't participate right now. I know it's kind of a cop out or whatever but suck it up you'll get plenty of me later.

Dragon D. Luffy wrote: ↑Fri Dec 07, 2018 12:39 pm Aubergine: looks like a civ since vote power is OP for baddies, but restricted enough that could be bad
Blind seer: probably civ
Chevuschade Voidwing: bulletproof makes more sense to be bad
D’Abrutsi: obvious 3P
Daisy: probably civ
Dark Worshipper: looks like our hostile indie role
Darth Malignus: name aside, silencing is such a baddie ability. If you are civ think twice before using it at all
Dream Splicer: could be either way
Frost Knight: the "does not block kills" suggests an attempt to balance a civ, but could be bad too
Gentle Shepherd: probably civ
Glint Viper: sounds like a civ, baddies wouldn't want to sacrifice themselves to bring someone back. Unless it can change alignments maybe?
Grimlock Wolverson: could be either
Hollow Man: obvious baddie
Kraken: could be either
Lycantha: tracker type role feels like a civ
Portalman: could be either
Psionic Ninja: very civ-looking, also looks very powerful. I suspect the <secrets> might be something negative, or a indie wincon.
Quantum Key: support-like role, feels civ
Quintessential Cat: 3P
Random Animal: 3P... I think? Or alternates between civ and 3P.
Sakana Sashimi: looks like a good assassin role for baddies, but might be civ
Savage Pixie: most of the text suggests a baddie, but the watcher thing suggests civ
Spirit of the Living Statue: 3P, or someone who can be recruited into any faction
Spirit Wrangler: most spirits sound like civ abilities
Thaddeus Mechaspark: protection sounds like civ, the rest of abilities look neutral
Toxic Frog: vicious sounding role, probably bad
Trickster: very bad sounding
Waresman: sounds like a 3P
Yin/Yang: probably civ

Is that correct?

Dragon D. Luffy wrote: ↑Fri Dec 07, 2018 10:33 am Also I checked the poll results and now I can't vote.
