CarrionCrow: ... slow pace ...
Agreed.

CarrionCrow: ... not feeling like I was contributing due to inexperience
Don't be silly. Some experienced players seem the believe they are playing Global Thermalnuclear War with W.O.P.R. instead of a game of Mafia. You are doing fine.

avatar
CarrionCrow: ... knowing in my gut that something like what's happening with Hijack and RW was going to occur.
It often does. This had more pyrotechnics than the average, I will admit.
avatar
Ixamyakxim: Also, what are your thoughts on Bookwyrm, particularly his enthusiasm for having another crisis event and his soft claim of having a claim "all lined up" ? How about adaliabooks, any thoughts on him?
Hey where'd Hijack go I had some good questions for him!

Right now scum team is like, do we do this? Could there already be two of us on this wagon? After we didn't vote Day One should we all pile on? What about the crisis event, should we wait for that? Do we let this wagon stall as well? Will town finish it or will we have to?

Krypsyn:
Thank you.

Going to work on analyzing everything (all 1,652 posts of it and counting...) now.

Krypsyn: Agreed.

Shall we play a game?
How many of you are resolved until waiting until after the crisis?

drealmer7: How many of you are resolved until waiting until after the crisis?
Considering we have no idea how long until that Quad even starts it - I'm OK with lynching first.
avatar
drealmer7: How many of you are resolved until waiting until after the crisis?
I think waiting on the crisis is a bad idea, there's no reason for it.
Would much rather lynch than wait. Waiting involves 4 days waiting on top of however long it takes for the mod to roll it out, on top of who knows what happening as a result.

adaliabooks: There you go again... I've been trying to figure out how this could possibly be the case, but the only thing I could think of (droids not counting towards town numbers) is actually worse for town...
Why are droids less valuable than humans?
I'm getting the feeling that powers may function differently (if at all) when used on droids or humans. That has also set me to wondering whether there are any aliens at all aboard this ship; we might be facing a scum team consisting of humans and/or droids.

adaliabooks: And it looks like I'm the prettiest princess again!
If Yog's vote count just above your post is accurate, Ix is still prettier than you.

JMich: That does seem to be one likely scenario. The other one is that HijacK lies about not using his power, while he actually used it on agent, but why not say it then? Having three roles able to block seem unlikely.
See above about droids vs humans as targets.

agentcarr16: Mr. Bookwyrm. Where did I say that I slipped on well-washed section of floor? Please point me to the point in the security record where I said that. I do not remember why or how I was knocked unconscious, but I was.
My apologies, you didn't say you slipped on the floor. I pulled that part of it over from JMich's assertion about what happened to Drealmer. Lets see what Drealmer and you had to say:

avatar
drealmer7: I was knocked unconscious last night. The details are still hazy, and my head hurts. I almost forgot it even happened for a minute there, the last thing I remember was getting ready to perform my nightly before-bed routine, and, then I woke up with a bruise on my head today.
avatar
agentcarr16: I do my tracking by getting reports from Q.U.A.D. So my roleblock flavour is heading back to my room, preparing to run my programs... and then getting knocked out. I wasn't hurt or anything, just I didn't get to track anyone.
The similarities should be pretty apparent, and that was the point I was trying to make.

Bookwyrm627: I already know what my claim is going to be, if (when) I make it.
avatar
RWarehall: I'm also rather worried by this quote...
I'm glad you've "worked it out"...
This sure reads like a scum tell...
I was wondering how long until someone jumped on this. I'm a little sad you think this is a slip. Did you notice when Yogsloth called himself scum?

-----

avatar
Krypsyn: Wet. I think I feel a little wet. It could merely be the shower I just took though.
I'm glad you explained this. Your intended meaning went totally over my head; I figured you had actually just taken a shower or something.

flubbucket: Nope. Jailer role is tantamount to Doctor with side effects. To "hold his action" is not town.
Avoiding screwing up unknown town power roles, like cops, is not a town action?

trentonlf: I was also perplexed by his post here, I still can't think of a good reason to want a crisis to occur and him being willing to take the chance of losing a townie on the pretense of a hidden dispatcher is a very bad play if he is town.
If RW is the dispatcher AND there are so many certain townies, then how are we in danger of failing a crisis? He picks from that certain town list, they indicate whether they are ill suited for their assigned task, and he repicks as needed until everyone is happy. Job is complete, everyone goes home happy, we know several people that didn't screw up a task, Drealmer can analyze someone. Except for the wait, what's not to like?

avatar
trentonlf: He also made an odd comment to me here. At the time I thought he was just trying to be cute, but now it seems he might have been trying to say "Hey I'm a droid". That in itself is not bad, but the assassin comment is what struck me as off and I am starting to think he might actually be an assassin droid.
The bolded part, especially when I realized I could incorporate HK-47. I couldn't resist the urge to tease you some.

I'm starting to get out from crewdroog's shadow some now, so I should probably stop the contestable remarks.

drealmer7: How many of you are resolved until waiting until after the crisis?
My vote is already placed on an active wagon. If people are ready to lynch, then lets get lynching.
avatar
Bookwyrm627: I'm glad you explained this. Your intended meaning went totally over my head; I figured you had actually just taken a shower or something.
Yeah. It was a stretch.
avatar
HijacK: Damn, that was a fast reply.
avatar
Ixamyakxim: Oh snap you found my scum tell. No, really what was your purpose with this post?
The fact that you were following yet the last relevant post before that one was a while ago.

avatar
Ixamyakxim: Also, what are your thoughts on Bookwyrm, particularly his enthusiasm for having another crisis event and his soft claim of having a claim "all lined up" ?
I found crew scummy during day 1, but nobody was interested in her. As much as I'd vote for her, Booky is not her. I try to give him the benefit of the doubt. As for the crisis, while I do agree it's bad to wait for it, can one really blame him for being curious. It's a new spin on the usual mafia game. He may just be curious. Time will tell. I have him in a grey area of unknown for now.

avatar
Ixamyakxim: How about adaliabooks, any thoughts on him?
Since he is a replacement player I try to give him the benefit of the doubt as well. I do not like voting for someone else's actions. This and the coroner claim is intriguing. I'm waiting to hear what he has to say tomorrow, unless of course he is conveniently role blocked? That would suck. However, I have a plan to prevent that. If he comes up with any kind of excuse I'm going to call scum right then and there.

avatar
Ixamyakxim: snip
I don't know how to feel about this. It feels lamist, but not with malicious intent. I don't like doubting my votes.

avatar
Ixamyakxim: Hey where'd Hijack go I had some good questions for him!
I went to dinner with the vice president of our dorm's council, and I gotta say she's hot. Apologies for the late response, but can't really say I regret it.

avatar
CarrionCrow: snip
Carrion, I'm going to say I apologize if I contributed to you having a negative opinion of this game, but you're doing an outstanding job. Don't let yourself be discouraged by this game. It's truly been way weirder than the regular forum mafia game.
avatar
HijacK:
Don't worry about it, there's no need to apologize to me.

Yes, it does seem to be a bit on the non-standard side. But, the day 1 crap is over, no one is quitting, so the game can continue without any more hiccups or hurdles.
avatar
CarrionCrow: ... so the game can continue without any more hiccups or hurdles.
...

*sigh*

You just had to jinx it, didn't you?!

At least you didn't say. 'Well, it can't get any worse." or "What else could possibly go wrong?".

Good thing nobody said anything like that. Whew!

...

*facepalm*
avatar
Krypsyn:
I said it can continue, not that it will continue that way. It's hopeful without that tempting fate feel to it.

Thanks to what you said, though....yeah, we're all kinda screwed now.
avatar
agentcarr16: I feel the need to disagree with you, JMich. A job description needs to be an explicit description of abilities and responsibilities. 'Cop' is a job description. 'Head of Computing' is not. In my opinion.
Feel free to disagree. I stand by my opinion that a "job description" is sufficient, even if not descriptive enough.

avatar
drealmer7: Had I something to report, I would have, I guess he wanted a confirmation of his own actions and I gave in to letting him know, but, what should I have done? Lied or ignored it? I really don't know.
If you are town, lying or ignoring something is really detrimental. See yog's game and what caused trent's lynch.
If you are not town, feel free to lie or ignore actions that happened, but be aware that should said lie be uncovered, you will most likely be lynched. So even as scum it's best not to lie.

avatar
Bookwyrm627: See above about droids vs humans as targets.
I find that farfetched, mostly due to the PMs from QuadrAlien I have. While it may be possible for a droid to be part of the intruders' team, I find it unlikely.
