I’m not entirely convinced we are out of RVS, to be fair. As for RVS questions, the game is won and lost on the activity of the town really, and anything that encourages that is (broadly speaking) good.
What is it that has you convinced we’re out of RVS?
Activity is better than inactivity, but some kinds of activity are more productive than others, and my impression is that RVS is less productive than a serious hashing-out of suspicions. My concern is that by asking RVS questions, I'd be allowing people to engage with those questions
instead of the ongoing situation, i.e. replacing medium-quality activity with low.
As for why we've left RVS: we have multiple things to talk about besides random questions. First of all, your push on me, which I don't think is entirely unserious; the initial question presumably was, but the fact that two of your RVS questions were about me makes me think you might be pushing me for more than RVS/reaction-testing reasons, meaning that you either suspect me a bit or are scum trying to build a case (leaning toward the former—the latter seems weird to me given that it would put you in the spotlight at a time when you don't have to be). There's also Crystallizedmire's unusual (if entirely explicable) reply to your post.
The only problem is that some people haven't engaged yet, meaning that they could sneak by while we overfocus on the ones who have, but I think we'd be better-served by their thoughts on what's happened so far than their answers to bullshit questions (though I notice that three of your RVS questions
were about what's happened so far, which is good).
Are you asking me specifically because you've read old games and know my position, or just out of sheer coincidence?
I'm in a good mood this afternoon so I'll just give you a straight answer: fuuuuuuuuck RVS, man. I left RVS yesterday after setting off a dirty bomb in the town square. If you look back you'll turn into salt.
I picked you because I was pretty sure you're the most experienced player here who isn't hector13, and I thought the question would be better directed at someone who was familiar with the game. If I'd known, I'd have picked someone else; you hating RVS in general makes the question basically moot.
As for my essay, I'd like to ask for a two-week extension; my mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, brother, sister, and uncle all died last weekend, along with three cousins and both my dogs. I hope you understand.
Sorry Elephant Parade I rolled town so we might as well get you out of the way because the scum are either going to kill you N1 or you’re scum yourself.
Better they kill me than someone who's played the game in the last five years.
Crystalizedmire, are you familiar with the concept of RVS?
Quickly google searches RVS
Recreational vehicle, huh
Someone who's played more could explain it better, but RVS is the start of a Bay12 game where everyone asks goofy questions to get the conversation moving. Look at Hector's post where he prods basically everyone, or the first couple pages of any game in this subforum.
Maximum Spin encompasses everything. All matter. All nothing. Everything. They exist everywhere. They exist nowhere. Max is the sound a tree makes when it falls and nobody is around.
Caz is innocent, pure, clean. Has done no wrong. Only looking out for other people. Caz does not know what self is. Caz does not know who they are.
Hector represents the darkness of night, shadow, deception. Hector knows exactly who they are.
sofanthiel reminds you of your childhood. The choices you made with your limited knowledge, the actions you had no control over, the strengths and weaknesses you saw in others. Crystalizedmire wants you to remember. They hold no malice.
Snowkiller is whatever you want them to be. Snowkiller will fill any role.
Elephant Parade has been around for a long time, a very long time. Their skin has aged so much it has become dry and cracked, however it has never been thicker. Elephant Parade never been stronger. Durable.
Crystalizedmire is just here to have fun. Like a cheerful, sunny day. Crystalizedmire is icecream on a hot day, hot chocolate on a cold day, or a close friend on a lonely day.
TricMagic is passion, chaotic passion. Impulsive, unpredictable, but constantly evolving...Tric is the scariest player of all.
This made me laugh.
Caz, Crystalizedmire, Elephant Parade, Snowkiller, and sofanthiel: Have you read any recent games on this forum for a better understanding of what to expect? The life you save could be your own.
ToonyMan flatters me, therefore ToonyMan is town.
Yes, I've read a dozen or so games over the last few months. I wasn't lying when I said I'd been looking to get back into Mafia; the only reason I haven't joined the last few games is that they looked to be expert-level.
