okay then, its just octuple posting seems like a bit much.
Unless the tool vote is lying, he proved it already.
This is getting weirdly similar to the LB3 double-voter situation.
The way you word things comes off with more "shade". It's subtle, but it's there.
That's....not it at all, Wee.
I'm going over it again but here's the breakdown.
It starts here where I vote for LP. As I explain later it's a half joke/half prod that I wanted LP to do more of something, anything. I also was not against it becoming a far more serious vote if nothing else popped up, i.e. scum reads
Then Wee posts this with little actual explanation
A couple of folks note it and ask questions. These are Reki, Sae, and Ket.
Wee clarifies to Reki that it's simply unbelievable that a Townie could ever pick out LP because he is the 'easy' target. Says my reasoning (keep this part in mind) is too weak.
Ket and Reki pursue it further, asking Wee how my vote somehow makes me Scum.
I wake up and join in on this fun time with an explanation of my vote.
Wee's response Ket's and Reki's question as to why that makes me scum is, again, I've been around long enough to know prods don't work on LP so therefore I am a liar for trying it anyway.
Wee doesn't respond to my explanation post (despite mentioning that my reasoning is weak even though I didn't explain it until after their chat with Reki/Ket). I ask them why
This whole exchange happens. I call out Wee for not discussing my reasoning behind the vote and they continue to simply sit on the 'you should know better' angle without talking about lunching low post counts, unhelpful Day 1, etc. Even Ket enters in again and echoes my sentiment that Wee is protecting LP and that gets nothing out of them.
Wee's next post is:
That's the second dodge from Wee so I vote:
Response? 'i'm scumhunting'. Still nothing back to me.
And then even keeps it going by ignoring this last statement too.

thank you for coming to my TED talk
Regarding Exodus and his claim.
He showed us that he has the power to double-vote.
That seems fair but that does not mean that he is town alligned.
Let that be clear.
exodus glad you flexed but what did you want to accomplish by coming out like this ?
I mean, we will keep assuiming that there is the possibility of you being scum.
If you are indeed town, scum will try to just keep you alive in order to get lynched by town.
Or you will get killed by Scum since a town double voter is a lot more valuable to town.
In hindsight, you made the wrong move in my eyes.
Meh. I thought a double vote would be a good town indicator. I guess not. I don't know what happened in Love Boat.
Mostly just trying to do something interesting D1 because I hate D1's, especially in such a large game. I also tend to be in the running for D1 lunches in a lot of the games I play, so I was mostly hoping to preempt that.
Maybe it was a bad move. I'm just not much for playing by the "best-practices" townie handbook. It makes for a boring game.
The whole situation with the role claim this early on is weird IMO. Here is how I see it:
If He is telling the truth and he is townie then revealing the double vote early on is actually counterproductive. Double-voting is an skill better reserved for the late game where the number of players is vastly reduced. Not only is claiming painting a target on his back, he could also reduce the options the scum has to choose in order to hit another valuable power role. If he did the claim in order to gain town trust then he just gave the scum a freebie IMO.
Now if he was mafia then the claim could make some sort of sense. He could be trying to claim a non vital power role in order to gain the trust of the townies in the game. Perhaps with the help of a role-cop in case we have townie roles capable of doing just that. However, by claiming day one he also puts himself at a disadvantage since anyone in future days could call his claim into question, thereby also painting a target in his back. I need to add here that if exodus were to be scum then I0d expect him no to do something as bold as role-claiming day 1 (Then again, I've seen some weird things happen, so idk).
Now then, onto the most interesting possibility: Exodus is an independent player. If he were neutral his playstyle would vary depending on his role, and based on his actions so far, he could be a jester looking to get lynched early. This could fit with the nature of his claim which can be easily proven wrong or right. If he is not telling the truth then he has already given the players plenty of ammo to use against him. Thus leading to an early elimination.
Now, we could prove this by tying votes with him in order to see that both his claims are true. If it is true, then more than likely he is town (and a risk taker) but if he is lying then my instinct is telling me that he is a jester and we should ignore him for the rest of the game.
[BTW Everyone, quick pause in the middle of my rant. I have a question. How does the outside communications work in these games. In the previous games Ive played elsewhere PM's were allowed as long as the game runner was also included in the conversations. Is this true here, or are only the mafia allowed to have their chatroom.]
Double: EzekelRAGE
Scum zeke is scary unreadable. I don't have a solid read on anyone right now. Maybe town for Sawneeks for purely selfish reasons.
What are both of my claims, and what do you mean by tying my votes?
So no reason in this game to believe im scum? I can't do anything with that then.Tbh, I'm trying to find a reason to believe Zeke is scum because he completely fooled me last game. He played a very aggressive early scum and was unreadable to me all game. Oddly enough, he went after Chuggs last game and seems to be doing the same here.
I guess I should go more in depth with my thoughts on this.So no reason in this game to believe im scum? I can't do anything with that then.
It's 24 hours long (hi, i'm covering for monkey here)
Thanks.Depends. Usually it is one kill per night if they don't have another limited kill ability.
They do. Don't get too caught up in which roles could be in a game though.
I can at least confirm this.
nin
I was very concerned for a bit due to his responding immediately to jokes but disregarding game content. He did respond to most of my game questions later though, this could be a schedule variance. Still waiting for a response to one question, maybe he missed it. No real read on nin so far.
I remembered your vote.That's....not it at all, Wee.

Ket and Reki pursue it further, asking Wee how my vote somehow makes me Scum.

People quoted the post and it turns out the explanation was in it, which I had forgotten.Wee's response Ket's and Reki's question as to why that makes me scum is, again, I've been around long enough to know prods don't work on LP so therefore I am a liar for trying it anyway.

You kept worrying at it. I let it go.That's the second dodge from Wee so I vote:
Response? 'i'm scumhunting'. Still nothing back to me.
And then even keeps it going by ignoring this last statement too.
thank you for coming to my TED talk
Pretty sure I asked you how you would categorize your current playstyle but i'm not going to go back and find the wording.
An ironic post from someone who has not yet met the minimum for the phase and never voted either.Ah yeah that makes sense, low post count players always give me the impression of trying to fly below the radar
you're doing great and also I adore you
Hey everyone!
Can't wait to see how I manage to stick my foot in my mouth this time.
Still fairly new to the game and there were some mechanics I wasn't familiar with in my previous games.
Ended up making comments that made me look suspicious and a target.
Don't make any dumb comments? lol
And don't wait till the last minute to vote.
I mean, after three games, I've learned the mechanics, but I still have trouble reading people.
Their only posts all game. Not even a shitpost or a hint of scum hunting.Fireblend Any reason why I don't show up on the post counts list?
I've reloaded it a couple of times.
I thought about this but there's nothing flavor-wise to link a human-gem fusion to scum unless town is actually all homeworld, which doesn't seem to be the case, or unless they're lying and thus was a supplied flavor name because they're actually topazIt doesn't make him town though. This could still be a scum or neutral power.
I wasn't talking about that, I was talking about the double vote.I thought about this but there's nothing flavor-wise to link a human-gem fusion to scum unless town is actually all homeworld, which doesn't seem to be the case, or unless they're lying and thus was a supplied flavor name because they're actually topaz
So was II wasn't talking about that, I was talking about the double vote.
You were literally just talking about the flair they posted about, the post you quoted was talking about the power itself. That a double vote isn't indicative of town.
Pretty sure I asked you how you would categorize your current playstyle but i'm not going to go back and find the wording.
So I have an hour and then I leave for work and the schedule ends days when I'm working and completely unavailable. This schedule is absolutely awful for me. I voted for the one that ends like 7 hours later so I could actually participate. If you want info from me you'll have to ask now and if you're asleep well too bad, wake up.
I guess you read my mind, thanks for that hahahI forgot to move my vote i have 2 choices that top my list, devious and meatwad, i guess i'll flip a mental coin. Well actually i've just seen WSD have very little to say so i guess i'll go
vote: meatwad
