Shadow Games Mafia Over: Dgames Doomed

[FullMetalLynch]

There's a problem I'm going to have with this game and it's that some people (without showing too much bias) really are easy lynch scapegoats based on their playstyle alone. What FML is doing right now is teetering between dumbtown or scum and it's hard to exactly pin it if you've played with Rake before. If you take it at face value: Rake's scummy. Kary's vote is fine. That's why I unvoted him because I think it's a good push but there's also this thing called the Rake effect which I really don't want to see happen in this game because it's a waste of time, and I can see it coming into full force if FML becomes the main target. FML aren't strong scum players, they will become obvious by day two at best.

Without sounding like a broken record, I'm worried more about the inactive right now.

@-@

I think you underestimate human potential, but I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on this.

I too am worried about the inactive, and I REFUSE to post about ANYONE ELSE until we hear from at least one of them.

answer my q?

 

[Zalak]

answer my q?

very well, but after this I shall make my stand against the inactives

the answer is i forgot we were not in RVS anymore. i'm sticking to this vote though, because i'm suspicious of you.

 

[FullMetalLynch]

For the same reasons as kary?

 

[#HBC | Gorf]

dawgs my b about not being on top of this game but ive been slammed since i posted earlier today at work, and will continue to be slammed until about this time tomorrow night. if im as tired and lethargic tomorrow night as i am right now, then i probably wont be dishing out content till i wake up on monday. if i post tomorrow its cuz theres a god and he graced me with the opportunity to sit down and read this thread. just giving a fair warning before people try activity policing my slot.

 

[BarDulL]

alright. i haven't read yet, but i'm here now.

lez do this

[BarDulL]

Ok soup I have decided you can be my townbuddy for this game, except instead of really being buddies, we're like a cop film where neither of us really wants to be paired with the other, but we've got to work together to solve the case, and eventually we come to an understanding and develop a mutual respect.

Or you betray me, but that's not really in the script.

Tell me, who do you think is uncharacteristically quiet so far? I'm thinking Gorf.

hmmmmm just curious, why soup at this juncture?

 

[BarDulL]

triple post powers activate! not quite as strong as FML but i'm working on it Kappa

adumbro, what is your current topic of discourse in the land of film cows? aside from zalak

that's it from me for now, more tomorrow

[~ Gheb ~]

People are too quick to draw conclusions from Zalak's play ... iirc he hasn't even been scum yet, none of you should be that confident to have a solid take on him.

 

[#HBC | Gorf]

first off yea he has but for real no matter what i probably agree with gheb here especially cuz from my count zalak doesnt have a post 57 adum ?_?

He was scum his first game iirc

there's just no dramatic tension in our relationship without someone who expresses some distaste for my play

 

[#HBC | Kary]

The one thing that matters to you enough that you get off the bench, is what read people have on Zalak?

Tell me what you think of adum, since he's more or less who you're talking about anyways.

 

[#HBC | Kary]

Based SWF activity levels

 

[~ Gheb ~]

What game was that?

Tell me what you think of adum, since he's more or less who you're talking about anyways.

I don't have an opinion on him yet.

@ JayTheUnseen too and it's that look at Kary's posts so far and tell me if anything has been worthwhile so far. The whole interaction with Rake he had was particularly unsettling.

I agree, it was kind of odd.

I felt that the interaction was basically concluded.

Same here.

So coming out of the Kantrip/Zalak talk I have a town lean on both. Fair interactions that didn't seem wrongly motivated.

well, i'm new to the concept of buddying, but it seems really silly to become allies with someone at this stage in the game, when there's like 0 evidence of anything. trust no one

I agree, I don't see the point of buddying. Seems like it won't do anything but cause problems.

Hate to sound like a bandwagoner but no, I'm not digging Kary or FML, especially the former. The FML side is thanks to Rake's posts, I'm pretty sure, lol. Too abrasive for my tastes but it seems common for experienced players to do that, so...

Similar thing for Kary. It doesn't seem he has offered a valid reason for the Soup buddying. Making jokes won't last you forever. Your responses to scum accusations ( "You're rude," "I don't care what you think," ) are really unwise, which you actually complained about the same from FML. You'd better start caring what people think, lol.

#1 Zalak wasn't accusing me of beings scum
#2 I said I don't care about what Zalak thinks, not what everyone thinks.

Are you even reading the game, yo

Why on kantrip n zalek. Also which end of the kary fml interaction was weird to you?

 

[#HBC | Kary]

Why do you not care what Zalak thinks?

I don't think he said anything about me that I should care about.

You realize that caring about what people think about you is much more a scum trait than a town one, right?

 

[~ Gheb ~]

Jays digital world mini

OK, I just glanced over it.

I still don't see how anybody can confidently throw out a stance on Zalak yet. Like, I don't think any one of the three people who have taken a clear stance on him already have actually played a single game with him ... and it's not like his one scum game was that dramatically different from his town games. This game will be a mess if people continue to throw out half-assed non-reads like that.

 

[JayTheUnseen]

For Kantrip and zalak, both had fair and reasonable points that I feel were countered by the other fairly with no underhanded tactics.
Well, my post may not have been on clear on this, but I like you more than Kary. Not anything in particular was weird, just the whole thing felt odd, a little standoffishness on both sides.

I don't think he said anything about me that I should care about.

Unless you're town but still want to be lynched, I think you should at least answer questions so the town can see you as town and not waste a slot lynching you.

Yes, we should all sit on our hands and offer absolutely no reads or analysis, as per your example.

I clearly am answering questions, though.

 

[JayTheUnseen]

Why are you buddying with Soup? If you've given a valid reason that I missed, just tell me again, please.

Do you forget that reads fluctuate over the course of the game? They aren't static. I agree with adum on his analysis of Zalak's play so far, but that doesn't mean he's instantly clear in my book. Nobody is. I really want to see you get your feet wet, Gheb.

Glad you figured that out!

 

[#HBC | Kary]

Glad you figured that out!

So dar we have accomplished very little today we need to go and scumhunt.

 

[#HBC | Kary]

I'm not buddying with soup. I'm really not treating him any different to anyone else.

I even said that we're not really buddies, and that he might betray me.

BUT because I used the word 'buddy' in a post one time, people think it's a big deal.

 

[adumbrodeus]

Don't like kary, gheb.

undecided on kantrip.

liking soup, Zalek.

You planning on saying anything substantial? Disagreeing with people's mafia theory is a nice aside but doesn't contribute to killing scum unless it's about somebody on the chopping block.

What do you think of kary and kantrip?

 

[adumbrodeus]

first off yea he has but for real no matter what i probably agree with gheb here especially cuz from my count zalak doesnt have a post 57 adum ?_?

Lol, probably should've double-checked that post but didn't have much time when I made it and wanted to cover a lot, actually referencing his #97.

 

[FullMetalLynch]

why do you want to lynch Kantrip?

also, why would I help you. You've done nothing to warrant my trust

Just to see if I can get a rock rolling.

 

[FullMetalLynch]

But I've done nothing to make you mistrust you

 

[#HBC | Kary]

But I've done nothing to make you mistrust you

So what you're saying is I should follow you onto a waggon that you can't even give a reason for being on?

 

[FullMetalLynch]

Just so we're clear, Orbo seemed kinda defensive in the very early posts of the game, and now Rake has come in hyperposting a bunch, but without any clear agenda, and what seems like a lot of fluff. None of their responses to being called scum fill me with confidence either.

Vote: FullMetalLynch

But why should I have an agenda yet. I just got here. Plus in point of fact I do have one and its prodding around kantrip.

Why is fluff telling though. As scum if you'd compare fea then you'd see I ran that game from the get go and created a ton of content to offset people's ideal that posting itself and presence are equivalent to townie behavior.

 

[#HBC | Kary]

Don't like kary, gheb.

undecided on kantrip.

liking soup, Zalek.

conspicuous lack of opinion on FML

 

[~ Gheb ~]

Not sure how to feel about Kantrip. His initial point against Zalak looks fabricated and he was kinda quick to retract the whole thing. Can't see where he's coming from. Definitely a slot I'm keeping my eye on.

I have no problem with Kary atm.

Reads more like you're posting for the sake of posting than you are pursuing potential scumhunting avenues.

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

My side is V/LA til tomorrow

 

[#HBC | Kary]

On the subject of Kantrip, this one line seems really gross to me:

@ JayTheUnseen - Would you say that my vote is the most factual one that's been made so far? Would you care to join me?

I feel like there's something spooky going on between the Jay / Zalak / Kantrip votes in the very early game, but I can't really put my finger on it.
