GAME OF CHAMPIONS 2021 Endgame (town and 3p win)

[LinearPoint]

C4 who would your top 2 vig's be?

[Belzy]

I am back home and received a message KZA died.

[Belzy]

A shot rings out!

@KZA has died and flips TOWN! They reveal as:

This ability can be roleblocked IF the block is originally aimed at you, but will NOT be stopped if a block would be redirected to you.

Starting now you are right.

[Belzy]

okay wait was that c4's shot

No

I have to announce mine in thread

Damn, so who or what killed KZA and why

[Belzy]

I don't really wanna shoot LP or Paopan

On the other hand I can totally see myself shooting Marmot

Haven't looked into Scotty at all

Spicy,

@Marmot there is a laser pointed at you

[Porscha]

i guess most of that wall looks like busywork to me, alison. and i dont understand where pao's policy elims came from

again, i dont think i even know this person, why am i a policy?

I think that policy list is just a bunch of lowposters

see i asked them in thread but they disappeared. which also doesnt have me feeling great about the slot

they said they would be back in 12 hours or something

kaz, you have your game face on so i'm gonna give you a round or two, but i'm not sure i'm feeling the kawaii-town energy from you atmtbqh

idk who murked KZA but 112 had already commented they weren't getting townie vibes from them. and then KZA responded with song lyrics about not being his best. not sure if it's meaningful or not

[Belzy]

It well past midnight here, so I really should go offline, but then KZA suddenly dying popping up and c4 can also kill someone... I need some sleep!

[alexa]

i'm here

c4 was it you who shot KZA?

[Porscha]

i'm here

c4 was it you who shot KZA?

c4 already said he didnt shoot KZA and c4 has to make his shot publicly, which he has not done yet

[alexa]

i'm here

c4 was it you who shot KZA?

c4 already said he didnt shoot KZA and c4 has to make his shot publicly, which he has not done yet

yeah sorry i'm not caught up i just saw KZA died

You’re a two shot tracker. Also kind of a nerd, I guess. Anyways, twice during the game you can target a player at night at see who they visit, if anyone.

oh sick

[c4e5g3d5]

Well that also wasn't me but give me credit anyway

[hollowkatt]

lol marmot

[Belzy]

idk if c4 shot marmot either? I didn't see him make the shot publicly

Lol, would be crazy if c4 is going to make it to a 3rd day vig kill.

[Seanzie]

Gonna go ahead and say that my role is quite a bit better than 2-shot tracker, so mafia likely chose teams.

[LinearPoint]

So 3 dayvigs D1? Nanook is crazy. Neeko likes.

[Belzy]

Well that also wasn't me but give me credit anyway

This game is weeeird.

[Belzy]

So basicly this means I will sleep late.

[Belzy]

So 3 dayvigs D1? Nanook is crazy. Neeko likes.

Nook is probably killing them himself. Gotta be a God when you can, right

[alexa]

i just went outside in the blizzard to get food and now i'm sick with the most terrible cough ever but at least i get to see a dead mafia

[LinearPoint]

Neeko really hopes the rock paper scissors winner also gets dayvig now.

[dyachei]

you're welcome

[LinearPoint]

Gonna go ahead and say that my role is quite a bit better than 2-shot tracker, so mafia likely chose teams.

Marmot's also a pretty good player so Neeko thinks this is correct.

[hollowkatt]

i just went outside in the blizzard to get food and now i'm sick with the most terrible cough ever but at least i get to see a dead mafia

I thought that's why door dash was invented

[Belzy]

On the other hand I can totally see myself shooting Marmot

Haven't looked into Scotty at all

Spicy,

@Marmot there is a laser pointed at you

This happened 5 minutes Marmot got shot. Am I God but didn't know it yet?

[Seanzie]

D1: 34 people.

D2: 3 people.

GoC 2022

[c4e5g3d5]

you're welcome

Oh you claiming it?

o7

[Belzy]

you're welcome

You shot Marmot or?

[dyachei]

you're welcome

You shot Marmot or?

ye

[alexa]

very based dya

[112]

uhh, recanting my seanzie read if it matters at this point

marmot, sabie, dizzy are all good suspects imo

and i could easily see BK as a wolf in this one

[Belzy]

you're welcome

You shot Marmot or?

ye

Nice

[Belzy]

uhh, recanting my seanzie read if it matters at this point

I have had Marmot Dizzy as scum aligned for quite a while now. Dizzy's should I or should I need give a pass on Marmot... then I engaged with him about it and he really didn't seem to like that.

Should I or should I not*

[Creature]

Cool Phil and Gloria is sheepable

[sabie12]

Thanks everyone who came to the sockys! I missed quite a bit while working on those and I'm still going to be out and about for a bit.
In just my breif catch up I see someone shot kza out of nowhere but hasn't fessed up to it. C4 is trying to figure out who to use their shot on. There was some thing with porscha being given a hard time about saying they need to catch up. And now marmot died which at least that was a mafia hit.

[dyachei]

c4 has a shot too?

[Master Radishes]

*stares*

TBH has Creature played like more than three games with Alison

I think I played plenty. It's just that anyone who plays with me tend to wolfread me at first until they don't.

[VOTE: Creature] aubergine

Here is my case on Creature.

Spoiler: show

All of Creature's posts so far can be divided into one of three categories: useless fluff, attempting to derpclear himself for silly reasons, and "flame fanning".

Category 1: Useless Fluff

Spoiler: show

Why does the game always start when I'm the most low energy?

Wow this got intense so quick

Is this game by any chance bastard? I didn't check before joining

Who is Neeko?

Would much rather just be mafia in bastard games

I think you are.

I'm not mafia and this makes your push on me even more annoying

These posts go beyond the usual RVS horsing around (although we are well out of RVS now). These are posts that show a clear lack of interest in the progression of the game. His questions are flat, shallow, and in many cases could have been easily answered by glancing at the OP. He is more interested in looking like he is around and engaging with the game than actually being around and engaging with the game. He had a ripe opportunity to engage with me about my push on him, and he responded by going "I'm not mafia, I'm annoyed now, go away". I don't get the sense that he cares whether or not I am town misreading him or scum trying to get him killed, and this is especially concerning because in my last scum game I tried to get him killed early on.

I believe him when he says he is low energy. Take note that being low energy and unable to meaningfully engage with the game is a classic Creature scumtell.

Category 2: Attempting to derpclear himself for silly reasons

Spoiler: show

I want the guilty on nutella to be legit

Is soup kill a thing?

Would much rather just be mafia in bastard games

Wait I think the existence of a mafia captain should almost clear me from ever being picked as mafia this game

Unless you want to argue that I'm 3p here? But would be better to seek for the seven mafia first.

If I was mafia captain I would choose players tbh even if it is not mechanically optimal. I would much rather have an enjoyable team to play with.

I know I'd never be picked by the mafia captain if they chose players over roles

Creature makes an excessive number of posts attempting to insinuate that he is town, or in some way get people to "angleshoot" him as being town due to his lack of knowledge about the game mechanics or the inner workings of the mafia ("is there a soup kill?"). But a town Creature who genuinely wanted to know would just check the OP; asking in thread serves no purpose except to try to get people to falsely read him as town. He is aware that he struggles to gain the trust of the town when he is mafia, and he is cheaply attempting to earn this towncred through derptells and "townslips".

Take note that he is trying to convince the game repeatedly that the mafia captain chose players rather than roles. If he is town, he has no reason to believe that the mafia captain chose players over roles. I, personally, have reason to believe that the mafia captain chose roles. I think nutella is much townier than her scum self would be, and as I have argued, a town nutella implies a town Alexa. I know I am town, and I do not think a mafia captain who picked players would pass over both me and Alexa. So this attempt to convince the town - with no evidence whatsoever - that the mafia captain picked players reeks of agenda-pushing to me.

Finally, I want to highlight this line: "Unless you want to argue that I'm 3p here? But would be better to seek for the seven mafia first." Nobody has accused him of being 3P. It comes completely out of the blue, and reads almost as though he is self-aware of his own scumminess and is trying to hang a lampshade of it. I don't think it's a line that would flow naturally from a townie's mouth.

Category 3: Flame Fanning

Spoiler: show

lol if nutella is salty alexa caught her n0

lol if the alexa/nutella w/w theory is right

early take is that Seanzie is probably wolfing imo

Thought I was the only one seeing it

LinearPoint has been accused of fanning the flames. I think Creature is even more guilty of this sin. In his ISO of 19 posts (at the time I wrote this case), Creature utters provocative lines, egging on the suspicions of townies towards each other, three separate times. They are quoted in the spoilers above. Note that he first eggs on the "Alexa has a red check on nutella" narrative, then switches to "Alexa and nutella are wolves together". These narratives are contradictory. Creature does not have an opinion of his own; he just encourages whatever happens to be the prevailing opinion or thread sentiment at the time. This is strongly opportunistic, and this opportunism is exemplified even further by his agreement with 112 that Seanzie is wolfing. How is Seanzie being wolfy? Why has he not brought up this scumread on Seanzie before, if he thought he was the only one seeing it? In fact, if he thinks Seanzie is a wolf and fooling everyone except him, why would he keep quiet about it until someone else brings it up, at which point he eagerly jumps on the bandwagon? Answer: because he is nakedly taking advantage of 112's suspicion to push Seanzie.

At no point does he contribute to the conversation. He does not add evidence to support any narrative. He does not refute the evidence or points that others have brought up. He does not, in fact, engage with the theories and accusations that have been thrown around the thread. He merely fuels the fire with provocative one-liners and moves on without explaining them.

Please vote Creature.

jfc Alison you came to play. I take it you aren't the Gambit Demon this go around?

jfc Alison you came to play
