DGames Summer Mafia Bash - Day 2 Begins. Deadline Day 2 begins - Deadline 8:00 A.M. CST Monday 6/24

[Thirdkoopa]

I'll reveal this much

Spoiler

Spak didn't want to vote Tom because Spak knew Tom was town. Also, Spak was gonna shoot Nabe and Nabe's just a VT. So, Spak/Nabe are off your scum guesses

And I'll allow you to guess on the mafia... for a couple more hours. Or until the Mafia gets bored.

 

[Lore]

Yeah nuke is locked.

If Spak isn't scum I'll be shocked.

If Ryker is scum he played a hell of a game.

 

[giraffelasergun]

Majority voted. Nuke locked.

I have it on PS4 and Switch. add me!

Tight. Once I figure out the whole 'get free Nintendo online through prime' thing I'll add you.

 

[Thirdkoopa]

No but I'm hype for Mario Maker 2! Alright I'll make my scum team guess in my next post since nuke is locked now.

ranmaru don't read my spoiler

Oh ffs

 

[ranmaru]

My scum team guess is [Ryker, Mac, Rockin, Doop].

 

[ranmaru]

Poor toad ahahaha, good choice ThirdKoopa

 

[Lore]

My scum team guess is [Ryker, Mac, Rockin, Doop].

Mac seems a bit random, but you've been direct on your Ryker read.

Pretty sure Rockin is scum though. Not sure after that tbh, I had a whole list of posts I had to reread depending on flips. Was waiting to see the night kill.

I was town btw, just played horribly. I should have slowed down and read slower D1.

 

[#HBC | Kary]

Spoiler

If Spak is JOAT, Poyzin is scum. Frozen is scum. Ryker is scum. Frankly I have no idea, but it's fun to guess.

 

[#HBC | ѕoup]

Ranmaru was scum and you all got clowned

 

[Thirdkoopa]

Actually, the scum team was me, Doop, Red Ryu, and Giraffel. If you lynched one of us three mods, you'd lynch the rest of the team. It was all a social experiment to see how far we get - we intended for Doop to blow himself up on Day one just to mess with ya'll

Spoiler

Obviously I'm joking.

 

[#HBC | Kary]

Ranmaru was scum and you all got clowned

Spoiler

By 'got clowned' do you mean 'realized he hopped off two waggons for no reason on day 2 and lost his town card prompting a rethink' ?

 

[#HBC | marshy]

fwiw im not tryna play w/nabe either. same stance as lore. to hell with self policing; i want standards and basic abidance of the spirit of the game

havent played that crash game but saw some gameplay and it looks tight

in reality im just hyped for pso2 next year and hope we can get a group goin lol

 

[Pythag]

Like if that's not self policing, I don't know what is.

That's a fair point, I guess I saw the self policing as happening IN GAME rather than outside of it. That was my take

 

[Thirdkoopa]

marshy pick up CTR. you/me/giraffel should totally play it.

i bought it on switch and PS4

re: nabe - I'm okay with allowing Nabe back in as long as he promises not to do what he was doing in this game (I don't know what that is) - we need basic standards.

 

[Lore]

Not a fan of this, especially if you don't even know what the issue is. :/

gopher explaining to me. I'll listen with open ears. I've modded a lot of games, especially in my prime (sometimes I was modding 5-6 games at once)

 

[ranmaru]

He was prod dodging basically.

 

[#HBC | Kary]

I really enjoyed Day 1. GG. I'm going to stop refreshing this and try sleep.

 

[Thirdkoopa]

He was prod dodging basically.

oof.

i have a lot of problems with prod dodging.

 

[ranmaru]

Soup, I'll try to post much less in the next game. Just don't be surprised when I am not engaged. Barely posting gives me apathy.

 

[Lore]

gopher explaining to me. I'll listen with open ears. I've modded a lot of games, especially in my prime (sometimes I was modding 5-6 games at once)

We had massive inactivity issues, with several players replacing out or at minimum giving large excuses. Those latter players (FF JTB etc) at least had the courtesy to actually attempt to play the game and post content.

Nabe did absolutely nothing the entire game, just coasted and prod dodged. I'm not even talking prod dodging with content, I'm talking full on fluff posts to dodge.

His only "content" was arguing near the end where I and others brought up directly to him how crappy that behavior was.

Others were inactive, but Nabe was by far the worst. And he apparently had zero remorse.

 

[#HBC | Gorf]

so my take on the nabe thing:

dude was vla for a ****ing week and we were cool with it by not speaking out about it. dude was gone ALL D1. thats gonna set someone back. and being involved in current situations in a game when youre not fully caught up can be a reeeeeally bad look regardless of alignment. it can let you fall into really ****ty traps. nabes not a quantitatively HUGE poster anyhow, and his posts led me to think hed be coming back and posting more the next Day.

but on the flip side it was really really really ****ing ****ty that he wasnt being transparent with us about the whole ordeal at the very least.

with that in mind my real opinion is that im fine either way... but man am i a sucker for nabe

 

[ranmaru]

being involved in current situations in a game when youre not fully caught up can be a reeeeeally bad look regardless of alignment.

I agree, this is true.

 

[#HBC | marshy]

why not just pace yourself and post it at the right time in flow with the thread. you can still do your playstyle just not overboard

like i feel theres a definite sweetspot between what youre trying to do versus being disengaged altogether. like ryker does what you do to an extent but is aware of not flooding the thread

 

[Lore]

Like I'm the poster person for looking bad by posting before catching up.

But did he ever give an excuse besides a game translation coming out, plus a single weekend road trip?

 

[ranmaru]

I don't know what the right time is though and what pace honestly

 

[#HBC | Mac]

highlight of this game for me was marshy going off on ran

 

[#HBC | marshy]

I don't know what the right time is though and what pace honestly

@#HBC | Gorf

i feel like youre better at giving constructive feedback in a way thatd b helpful to ran on this subject. im not sure how to parse it right now

 

[ranmaru]

Then talk to me about the occamz razor.

 

[#HBC | Gorf]

Soup, I'll try to post much less in the next game. Just don't be surprised when I am not engaged. Barely posting gives me apathy.

"much less" nah. i seriously do want to get with you and talk through game theory some before a reset happens because i definitely DONT want to not have you in the next game. but i think the sheer volume of posting you do makes it cumbersome for town to parse and easy for scum to sidestep.

 

[ranmaru]

I'm down for that. I'm free.

 

[Lore]

I'd appreciate a similar talk tbh. I definitely didn't play too well here.

 

[JeXs]

Oh, the game got nuked... Thank you Spak for replacing me, I really enjoy your play style from what I've seen!

 

[#HBC | ѕoup]

ranmaru

I'm not Gorf but from my own personal struggles you'd be surprised how much reflection and just watching things ensue instead of jumping in helps your reads, and promotes a better game state.

You need to be more conscious about what others are saying and then taking that feedback and stringing it along in your own way, because sometimes I think you unintentionally make the thread about yourself which defeats a lot of purpose in the first place. It's not that you need to suddenly change who you are, you just need to be less anxious about your opinion not being heard or needing the crutch of dialoguing with someone. Get more comfortable with yourself man and the rest will follow.

 

[#HBC | FrozeηFlame]

Vote: Don't nuke fwiw because I just think giving up on games is kinda wack even if they aren't running the smoothest but I get everyone's frustration, just contributing my worthless inactive 2 cents

Yeah D2 was a **** show for me, crazy ****ing work week and then my best friend from college surprise visited me Fri-Sun for my birthday which was yesterday and I couldn't justify spending multiple hours during his visit to do catch up reading and posting as much as I had originally planned using the weekend to do so. So yeah I dropped the ball on that and contributed to the frustration the really active players were feelings and I can own up to that ****, sorry bros

If we're nuking this game and restarting I'd love to get in on it but I also understand if I'm not welcome given my abhorrent D2 in this game. If y'all want more bodies def give me a holler as I'd like a shot at redemption but if you're trying to thin out the player list and play a smaller size game Im not trying to box anyone out who would be significantly more active than me

Maybe my attitude has just changed and I care less about winning/losing or playing like a top tier quality mega competitive game? I was just trying to have some fun playing in a big game with old homies. I def didn't come into this game with the attitude that I was gonna put in a performance for the history books and I really wasn't expecting that from anyone else. Kinda saw this game more like friendlies than tournament I guess. My bad if that wasn't what people were going for

no. this was my exact mindset going into the game and i imagine most people shared it

i for one dont hold anything against you for this game. **** happens and ive seen you come thru before; it seems like you just got blindsided by unpredictable irl circumstances that couldnt b foreseen. id love to see you in the next one

 

[Lore]

Oh, the game got nuked... Thank you Spak for replacing me, I really enjoy your play style from what I've seen!

My only criticism was the sudden turn to personal attacks as a defence, along with the indefinite reads. It definitely felt off to me and led to my scum read.

Otherwise, props to him for joining such a packed and intense game later than even I did. He did his best.

Yeah agreed with this take. FF was open and honest about his issues, scum or town. It felt genuine.

 

[#HBC | marshy]

btw Tom

sorry for misreading you. i was hoping to push you near deadline and get you to extrapolate on your reads but then that quicklynch happened and i died

btw that d1 dogpile on doop was the funniest **** ive seen in a while. my reaction in my role pm immediately afterwards:

LMFAO

HAHAHAHAHHA

THAT WAS THE FUNNIEST LYNCH IVE SEEN IN FOREVER
