I'm pretty sure Kary is scum. I'll be annoyed if Vinyl is scum, but I looked over Vinyl's play and Vinyl fits his meta rather decently. Kary's odd methodology doesn't really hold water considering he wasn't reaction testing me as much as he was "reaction testing" Vinyl. In fact, it's of my opinion that he thought he could coerce Vinyl into shooting me as scum, which is why he was "reaction testing" Vinyl. He probably thought he could accomplish this considering Vinyl shot Omni when Xonar asked him to, but Vinyl didn't do it when he was asked by Kary...which is odd.

Vinyl is pretty scummy too considering his reactions to Kary. Vinyl first says he likes me and doesn't like Kary, then he says we're both null, then when Kary asks him suspicious questions, Vinyl reacts oddly. However, this isn't peculiar behavior for Vinyl considering Vinyl has the tendency to be indecisive when choosing scum as seen in his game with Ranmaru.

Anywho, this game has gone on long enough and I'm just gonna say to hell with it and shoot Kary. If I'm wrong, sorry Kary, we'll talk about it post-game.

And with that shot, Kary was shot into oblivion and a bloody corpse was all that was left of him.

Poor Kary....

Kary, Town 1-Shot BP/DayVig, was killed!

BarDulL, Town 1-Shot BP/Dayvig, has been endgamed!

Vinyl., Mafia 1-Shot BP/Dayvig, has won!

I can give a little bit of I guess. I thought Kary was a bit more town then Vinyl since he was actually explaining his actions and also had some town intent behind his posts besides Vinyl who was just looking for you to shoot Kary and hiding in the background a bit.

Hm that's odd, I didn't recall that. Well thanks Zen. Man this set-up type deal is trickier than explained. xD

Anyways, I'll text Sang about the next game starting soonish.

I'm surprised the fact that Vinyl needed prodding to shoot Kary despite the fact that if he were town Kary would have been confirmed as scum didn't come up

As town, it's my job to get reads on the other two players, figure out who's scum, and then to convince the other town player that the scum player is scum.

I did my best to do all of these things, and explained that I was doing them, but Bardull still shot me because of meta.

I will admit I could have made a better case for Vinyl being scum, such as by pushing him more before I shot him- but to be honest he did nothing to seem town.

I really don't think you should be able to shoot twice- I feel like that undermines the point of the game. If I had thought that was allowed, I would've shot Vinyl again.

Good game.

Hmm. Bardull, the only other thing I will say is why didn't you pressure Vinyl more? You say we both seemed pretty scummy, but you didn't really ask him much about his play. Any questions for me?

Hunger Games? So much win.

Um... I plan to approach this as if I've never done this before... as I've never actually been to Lylo before and this is an entirely new experience for me. Not sure if that answers the question. It's vague.

Just FYI, my activity will be spotty for the next few days as this is my (and J's as well) last week of school and my teachers, at least, have decided to dump an ungodly amount of homework on me. ...I feel like this is how I start every game -_- Sorry. I'll try to be on as much as possible, though.

True dat @ Circus. Our activity may be a little spotty (Sang's more than mine, her teachers are evil haha).

I've been in LyLo before....once.....*turns dramatically to Circus*

Don't worry. This time, I promise I'll only kill you if you're scum.

My answer is I have no answer. I'll probably just kind of **** around, like we're doing now, until one of you gives me a reason to do otherwise.

Right, which is what I was afraid of when this offer came up. Hm. What do?

J, if I shot Sang right now, what would you do/think of that?

Probably laugh because we made a pseudo-bet because you have been at the hand of lynching both of us in the past and I said you'd shoot me first over her ASAP but she said you would shoot her.

All jokes aside, I'd think you would either be testing for my alignment or hoping that we let you slide for just 24 hours in order for ya to shoot again. Overall, null-tell because it can go both ways. However if it was a test for alignment, and I did happen to be mafia, the test would fail and I would win. If you were mafia though, I have a choice of 24 hours to decide whether to shoot you or finish off Sang dependent on her response/your actions from the shot.

...complex question haha.

I like that answer.

Theory: Due to the claimed lack of free time by you and Sang (especially Sang), if I'm mafia, my best course of action is to shoot you right now and hope Sang is too busy to stop me from shooting you again tomorrow night. Thoughts on that?

True enough, however, a fact that would interrupt said theory.

Me and Sang both have a period in school in order to post on SWF for about 45 minutes. We can easily post and make sure the other sees it before the timer is cleared up aaaand also we both check the computer at least once a day so it would not be like Vinyl/Kary where they were gone for days and were able to get away with things like that. If you were to shoot me at this moment, without hearing literally anything from Sang, I'd consider your intent to be much scummier than townier because it is only in the benefit of scum to rush the day phase of this LyLo scenario and I would probably shoot you back.

Man Circus, I thought this was supposed to be RVS but we are delving into the theory of each others minds.

Oh, I would absolutely expect you to shoot me back. The question is whether or not Sang, in the time allotted for her, would be able to drum up the confidence to finish me off before I get the chance to double tap you.

If it isn't obvious, yeah, I'm trying to sail past RVS as much as possible. I mean, it's not like there's even any actual Random Voting going on.

True story. Sang would have a slight problem of confidence as that's one of the things we have been trying to work on for her in IRL mafia games. However, I have a notion.

Let's all refrain from shooting this game and stick to votes because only scum really gain from using the shooting option. The shooting option is kind of like a saving grace in terms if you mess up your vote that you lock into someone ya know?

I feel like getting in on this convo as I am actually a part of this game and I don't work well on the sidelines. (code for: I'm feeling left out and feel the need to put in a word or two). I have to say that it would take me a while and a lot of deliberation to drum up the confidence, especially this early on when that would be so much of a null tell. It would also depend on what kind of read I had on either of you. But, this early in the game, I honestly wouldn't know what to do, and that would be the major cause of downfall.

J, what do you mean by "I have a notion"? Do you mean you have an idea of what I would do, or is it something else entirely?

Basically, I have a thought or idea that I feel should be put into swing. An idea in which we would all do. I.E. not shooting.

Sang, based on Circus' posts, why should I trust you over him? Can you tell me what you make of our conversation?

Circus, what is the first word that popped into your head when Sang posted 994?

At the moment, there's no definitive answer as to why you should trust him over me. I have not posted all that much (once or twice) and you and him have made an entire conversation. Your conversation was... interesting but, at the moment, it's null and doesn't give me all that much as most of it is all based upon theories and speculations.

Why not ask questions to gauge us then to determine our alignment besides sit in the back a bit saying "It's interesting but null."? =P

Can you tell me why you asked about my "notion" thing?

1) Because I can't think of any good questions at the moment (the ones I had thought up were easily explainable or useless to ask) and because that's all that conversation is to me. It's something to get conversations started and will be more helpful later down the road.

2) Because you were being vague and I wanted you to clarify. Since it was with the first paragraph and not the second, I didn't know that the two comments were connected.

Actually, I thought of one question, but it doesn't pertain to the conversation at hand.

Circus, what do you think of J's opening question?
