Sage103082: @everyone - what do you think about lift mention putting some votes on gamma for not participating in the game? and about him ignoring the fact we do have a sub? Am the only one that this really bothers?
It doesn't tell me much, but it's rather out of proportion to say someone is already lurking intentionally. People are either just getting started, or have problems, or are trying to figure something out first. Maybe that's what Lift is trying to figure out, if people are intentionally lurking. Nonetheless, a bit extreme for the first day of Day 1, lol.
avatar
Lifthrasil: Three bodies might mean that we have THREE killing factions/persons. That's an awful lot and would make for a short game at up to 4 deaths per Day/Night cycle. But perhaps one of the flavour deaths was natural causes / accident? We'll see.
avatar
Sage103082: The deaths were all people who were not playing.

Am I the only one who noticed that the staff says the NO ONE has ever died at the retirement home? This is impossible at a RETIREMENT HOME. Everyone there is at the end of their lives. So this leads me to wonder if the mafia are the staff that are watching over us in this room. And they want to get rid of us before we die naturally so they can make it look like we died somewhere else and not tarnish their retirement home.

A few things of note. Lift's post does scream fishing, but before commenting, I'm curious how much/what parts of Drealmer's post
avatar
drealmer7: snip

bler144: is actually serious.

Bookwyrm is more interesting. He makes an opening post that is out of character, kind of points out that it's out of character, HSL reiterates it's out of character, and wyrm pivots to lynching no-shows in post 24?

That whole sequence is weird. I unwager my nickle.

this seems overly defensive for how early in to the game it is, but I'll also note that wyrm's 'list of people to lynch' from it seems ridiculous this early in the game
avatar
Sage103082: "drealmer7: let's hope I can not get modkilled this game! IT'S A GOAL!!! "

How I read this was lets hope I can not (as in not possible at all or not allowed) to get modkilled this game! IT'S A GOAL!!!

I was wondering why you phrased it that way and not DO NOT. I see do not as I hope it doesn't happen and can not as it can not possibly happen or it is not allowed, IE you can not go to the bath room (not allowed / will not happen). IE I do not want to go to the bathroom. (I could but I don't want to)
nah, I used "can not" as in, let's see if I am ABLE to get through the game without being modkilled - pretty sure I was modkilled in the last 2 games I played on here? it's more than a hope, it's a goal! to use your analogy, it would be equivalent to me seeing if I'm ABLE to hold my pee+poo, not just wanting to to not 'go'

avatar
Sage103082: @everyone - what do you think about lift mention putting some votes on gamma for not participating in the game? and about him ignoring the fact we do have a sub? Am the only one that this really bothers?
I'm definitely bothered! Pretty sure lift is scum, actually. I read him pretty well and I think he's already shown me enough that I am comfortable voting him, will probably do that once I catch up.

You don't vote lurkers D1 (unless you're scum!), and trying to 'test the waters' to see who wants to / is willing to vote gamma not 36 hours in to the game is super-suspect.

hey, look, it's gamma! yay!

gamma are you ever going to be scum in a game with me again? (we've been in like 10 games together and he's been scum once?)

The way I read his post #10, he's pointing out that Lifthrasil's opening post is out of character, not that his own is.

And as my response to bookwyrm about some of the players not posting it was basically in jest and if it came off as defensive it was not at all my intent. I have been having my roof redone and what was supposed to be a one day job is on day 3 now and ended up being 1/4 more than the quote so maybe RL might have made me a little snarky as all my attention and time has been sucked into dealing with that.

@trent and @dedo what are your thoughts so far?

@everyone - what do you think about lift mention putting some votes on gamma for not participating in the game? and about him ignoring the fact we do have a sub? Am the only one that this really bothers?
On phone, so won't try to edit.

Sage's question to all - seems a bit eager. In a raise an eyebrow short of way, but not an eye squint. If that makes sense.

Rehearsal stuff starting soon, likely all for now.

docbear1975: @ drealmer: How is HSL being scummy in post 21?

@ lift: Sometimes it can be hard finding something to say as town.
That may be true. But in my experience it's much harder as scum to participate. But that may vary from player to player and it's a moot point anyhow because Gamma showed up and stated computer problems as reason for the late arrival. And if someone states RL issues they have no control over as reason, I choose to believe them because I don't want to suspect that any player would sink so low as to pretend RL issues when there are none.

And since drealmer didn't answer you, I'll answer in his stead: he sees HSLs post as scummy because it is from HSL. It would also be scummy if it were from me. It would, however, be totally towny and genius if it were from drealmer himself. ;-)
In other terms: I believe that drealmer and HSL have a history of clashing just line drealmer and I do. And at least drealmer and I have a history of finding each other scummy. No matter if one of us is actually scum.

...and I do again. This way of latching on to something small, taking it out of context and blowing it completely out of proportion is just so drealmer and he just refuses to learn that that doesn't help town at all.


avatar
drealmer7: I'm definitely bothered! Pretty sure lift is scum, actually. I read him pretty well ...
and that one actually made me laugh out loud! :-D That's hilarious! You always read me as scum. So yes, in the game where I actually was scum, you read me correctly. In all others you read me wrong. That's not 'reading well'. That's just sticking to one preconception until it is true by chance. This time, by the way, you are dead wrong. The only question is: are you wrong intentionally (i.e. scum)? Or just out of habit (i.e. misguided town)?


As for yogs: well, at least he ran out of chinese. But still it is his declared goal to be useless and inscrutable. That's anti-game and far too easy to hide behind as scum. So I'm still totally OK with lynching him. Someone being intentionally useless is either scum or is intentionally harming the game just out of spite. Which is even worse.

Hmm... interesting that you seem to have taken my comment to mean that you should (I expected you to?) engage in setup speculation.

@Yogs: writing in Chinese only sucks. It makes the game more difficult for everyone and no, I'm not willing to use a translator on all of your postings just to comply with your whim. Please switch back to English. Otherwise I'll see that as you volunteering to be the D1 lynch. Someone, who intentionally makes the game difficult for all others, is a good D1 lynch!
Frankly, I was trying to see if you weren't subtly riding the "obvitown" argument that got medamiedo in trouble in game #47.

Given your post #62, is this one a serious vote?

Well, there's being useful, and there's appearing to be useful. Just saying.

Lifthrasil: [...] You yourself referenced the last game to and stated that you will try not to get modkilled this time. So explain to me: why was that not out of place, but asking people to participate more than in the last game is?

Oh, wait. I know the answer. Your post wasn't out of place because it came from you. But if someone else posts the same or something similar, it's out of place, because it didn't come from you. Right? [...]
I'm pretty sure referencing the last game was not drealmer7's point. yet you somehow missed it even though you quoted it. And you still don't address his point in your post #73, even though he clarified further in his post #70.

yogsloth: Look, last GOG game I played 100% maximum try-hard and got mis-lynched D1 (first and only time ever lynched as Town btw) with slanker wolves running my wagon.[...]

It's just not my responsibility this time.

You all can do the work.
Sorry, but this sounds kind of petty - you're not going to do your part this game because you got mislynched for the first and only time ever last game? Really? If you're town, that is.

On a side note, at least the big bad wolf you town-read/cleared D1 in your last game here is modding this time.

He's of the "in lack of better candidates, let's lynch a lurker" school, but it raises an eyebrow when combined with his exchanges with drealmer7.

cristigale: I expected Trent to comment on this.
Yett he didn't bat an eye even though yogsloth made that post right after trentonlf's reply-post to him. Perhaps he took it as part of yogsloth's stance of shitposting which seemed to satisfy him?
Sorry for misquote in post #99 ....aimed at GammaEmerald.

bler144 just got in the way (that guy is such a dick!!)

Unvote: GammaEmerald

HypersomniacLive: ............... shitposting which seemed to satisfy him?
Have a Snickers
As for yog's comment about role claiming I have not been on since he made it, I'm still out of town on a business trip and have not looked at the thread since my last post. So in response, yes I would have extreme issues with role claiming and hope yog's doesn't go that route (if he does l would have no issue lynching him but as of now he is not on my radar). It does raise my eyebrows that cristi and Hyper are making an issue of me not commenting on yog's when I haven't even been on to see the comment.

Also, drealmer this comment "gamma are you ever going to be scum in a game with me again? (we've been in like 10 games together and he's been scum once?)" sure sounds like you are lamenting the fact that you are scum this game and gamma is not with you.

HypersomniacLive: Well, there's being useful, and there's appearing to be useful. Just saying.
Yes, my vote on yogs is serious. My vote on flubb wasn't, because his 'obvitown' reference isn't serious either. I think.

And yes, there are hidden ways to be useful. But I don't see any in yogs case. If you find his anti-game stance to be useful, please enlighten me.

Concerning my reply to drealmer, I think I did reply. As for the second part of his post 70, I didn't think that that needed a reply, since he again just takes something in a (probably intentionally) wrong context. He goes on about the game just running for under 24 hours and that therefore my post was premature. But it doesn't matter a pair of fetid dingo's kidneys how long the game is running. And it's f*cking irrelevant whether 'referencing the last game' was his point. It was mine! Here, I'll quote myself for comparision:

avatar
Lifthrasil: So, a quite serious call to everybody: please do participate! The last game suffered very strongly from extreme lurkiness. Please don't do that again. No matter whether you're scum or town or something else, not playing makes a game not fun. I know RL intervenes sometimes and I know that finding things to say may be difficult if you're scum. But please do make the effort. Lurking is unfair to all other players!
See anything there, where I reference how long this game is running? I don't. Or something where I imply that this game is slow? I don't. It's just a personal plea, after having watched the last game dragging on, to avoid this in this game. And such a plea belongs somewhere in the beginning of a game. Especially since RW announced that he wouldn't enforce regular postings and just expects end of the Day participation. Which is what is happening here too much anyhow. Which is why I asked everyone to participate as much as possible, even without mod-pressure, just because it is more fun that way.

Of course such a plea on a player level - i.e. outside of all calculations, roles, factions and whatever, - just for the game's sake is something that gives a player like drealmer somethin to latch on to. He doesn't care that after the experience of the last game my worry is a very valid one. He just cares to find anything he can attack. But I am somewhat surprised, that you tag along. I thought you were more perceptice that that and could recognize a player-worry as such.
