M60 - Duck Season? (Director's Cut) - Game Thread

[Vecna]

Hello all. I was going to say it’s good to be back, but jeez the game has gotten
Complicated hasn’t it? Think I’ll have to have a few read throughs.

What’s this about banning the word ‘Lyn*h’? What’s all that about?

##VoteFluminator because he dragged me back into this destroyer of time.

I’m going to lurk a little at times because I’m still pretty busy, and other times I’ll post mini-novels.

Haven’t yet read my DM, see if I can figure out who’s who without knowing who I am. That might be fun.

Hello to all the players I haven’t played with before. Is anyone new or have you all played before?

If you did not want to read your role PM for that reason, it seems like it would be better not to announce it. It also sounds like you are anticipating being mafia, because if you are town, reading your role PM would not help you figure anything out.

##VOTE Maniac

awkward, no good feelings

[Vecna]

Tom. Bunny I don't instinctively feel too worried about, replicating that town meta as scum is a very tall order and I feel like we'd catch on.

People talk about his town meta. Can you explain what that is?

When I played with him as town, he was awkward and uninspiring and so I miskilled him.

I did notice him not caring, which seems out of character for him in general but I'm not sure it would be scum indicative.

From the one game I was in, he talks a ton and is super excited all the time.

Doing meta, the wrong way. People need to learn to compare d1 to d1, and onward to later play. Not compare later play to his current d1 and go "omg so much less energy".

I mean, the conclusion could still be valid for all I know (dont think so) but people this flawed way of reasoning way too often imo.

[Tom Bombadil]

Thank god now I can sheep you without stress

@Flum, I don't know whether I should go there but does your role PM REALLY say vanilla town?

Is this a joke or the fakest of all fake contributions?

[summit_fever]

Yeah, but not as dumb as wanting to kill Bozo to see if he voted his scumteam as his opening.

I disagree, and I was even arguing against killing bozo. But let's not get into it again.

Can you be obvtown again please?

Hold on summit, didn't you support killing us to prove theory?

I did want to kill you, and briefly bunny, but not to test the theory.

[Vecna]

##VOTE summit

Join us, Moscow.

This feels like a mistake. The easier way to read summit is to just leave him alone and push content naturally and judge that.

Itll be hella easy very quickly.

[Durga]

I am a bit sus of Tom's entrance.
He's pretending his scum game is terrible so if he is a modicum of useful everyone will townread him.

Bunnygo's heart doesn't seem quite as with it as last game yet but it could be d1 fatigue considering we just had one.

Idk about him pretending to not know his meta, but he just felt so stiff. Very similar to last game.

he always gets bullied d1...

Yeah apparently it's NAI. Who knew

[Durga]

@Flum, I don't know whether I should go there but does your role PM REALLY say vanilla town?

Flash 3p confirmed

[Vecna]

I didn't say I'm visible and therefore town. I'm letting people conclude that on their own.

Flum feels much more high-horse this game as compared to his last game's "blend due to jokey fluff"

[Tom Bombadil]

People like to pick on me I guess.

[Vecna]

##VOTE bozo

I think Bozo might be scum too. One thing could disprove it for me.

@Bozo, what college did you go to?

Universidade de Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro

had no idea you were from portugal. Always asumed the US

[Vecna]

##VOTE bozo

Why are you voting for me before I have posted?

Ghug, tell me this isn't the pointless-question bozo from M1014 to a T.

MF hard town

[Durga]

@Flum, I don't know whether I should go there but does your role PM REALLY say vanilla town?

I think the joke is its toon and not town

[Vecna]

I believe you were visible in the last game.

Why aren't you?

I don't need Bozo spreadsheeting my time reading the thread, thank you.

Hmmm, thats a bad reply though

[Vecna]

Okay, I gave the setup a good readthrough, and am I crazy or doesn't it make sense for the Road Runner to claim? Maybe not right now, but eventually/early?

Why give scum a free kill on a PR early? And free info?

Its not like we need valid targets for items since theyll just be diverted/stolen if the target is predictable.

Townclears do not help this early

[BunnyGo]

BunnyGo meta change could also be bc he was so excited to be pr with a guilty scan last game. I noticed he was different last game than the other game I played with him when he was town.

He didn't have a guilty scan until D2 though. That doesn't explain anything about his D1.

I figured Bunny was frustrated with being murdered day 1 in M58.

That’s true. Durga knew the team was wrong.

[Vecna]

I agree with ghug and bozo.
Don't like Chaqa's idea. Seems scummy to me.

It's worth noting that Chaqa is not always the brightest moron on the mod team.

*off the mod team

liked the earlier posts, but then this comment? Whats the point?

Find something useful to talk about if you only have like 4 posts

[ghug]

Thank god now I can sheep you without stress

@Flum, I don't know whether I should go there but does your role PM REALLY say vanilla town?

It took you 27 pages to realize this?

[Vecna]

No I'm not

"ghug was not An Imposter"

gaming on the brain

note to self: reread TrPrado. Scared posting

[ghug]

That was Flum's joke, though

[Vecna]

@Flum - I don’t recall fake town slipping whilst scum before. I thought this was my first time.

Ok - so I read the PM. What complete idiotic moron without a brain would give a Maniac a BOMB

Oh yeah, Bo and Jamie are GMs. That makes sense now.

Why hasn’t anyone put the player list in alphabetical order. The mafia community standards are slipping since my last game.

Taking of changes, I don’t like the ‘long quote, short reply’ nature of mafia now. I seem to recall eloquently worded novelettes last time I played. Has game shifted to suit the twitter generation?

Also, see my post in Game Theory Games and play along if you’re bored.

My brain might be failing me, but I remember plenty of games where you also just wrote short replies? And then only a few of them every phase.
