Errol: I do not see you on the karma thread. If you were scum, I believe Vector would have shot you by now.

... Hah.


I am now going to do something that might be unwise... that is, I have a formal request of Rooster.  I am making it here rather than in some other venue because I do not want any of you to jump on sudden behavioral change.

Note to self: Being an asshole means facing no consequences. Gotta watch House MD today
JUST IGNORE THE UPPER PART OF THE POST

Nirur Torir you're so stupid it hurts you know?! Your purposefull tunnel vision?

TUNNEL MY ASS!

Being an asshole means facing the consequences of an angry IC.  I am going to strongly suggest that you cut this mess out.  I don't care if you're scum or town, your play is horrible.  You are not scumhunting.  You are not even performing a reaction-hunt properly.  Yes, there are alternative ways of playing this game.  No, I do not know everything.  I am, however, giving you a warning that your behavior is reprehensible.


I still didn't get my sex change operation! I still have my manly parts.

You haven't seen nothing yet. In LCS mafia Alexhans was... intense.
I'll just try to limit my offensive words, but that definitelly has some effect on you, or you would let me go rampart.

Nirur: So I suck balls. You have anything against people that suck manly parts? You homophobe!
(Read: OMGUS'ing would mean that we're all morons, because we have all done that at least one haven't we?)

Nirur: Next time wear a condom when you're fucking my mind.

Glyph Gryph: Ain't this what worked for Alexhans for much time?
Bitch, lynch me, vote me, whatever if you want I don't care. I feel sorry for you. In that you take my assholery the wrong way, and think I'm lying. I never said that I'm doing this shit to survive. (Is that the 3rd time I repeat this?). I'm doing this to mindfuck you and see how that works.

I would learn a whole lot. And why? Because I'm horribly bad at logical scum hunting. I have feelings toward people, but I have a hard time to prove them their scumminess and at the same time say something completely new. I'm still searching for a decent playstyle.

I'm totally into ladies action, but get out of Nirur's panties!

1. If you actually paid attention to Alexhans playstyle, you might notice that he is an asshole, yes.  He engages in personal attacks, yes.  What he does not do is stoop to base remarks about gender and sexuality.  I am disappointed to see that you are not above this.

2. Keep your interest in lesbian pornography to yourself.  Intentionally being an asshole is one thing.  Behaving in a bigoted manner is another.  Assholery is allowed and sometimes encouraged in this game.  This ... mess ... is not.

I have allowed several of these comments to pass, but this is more than enough.  I am nearly certain that Dakarian did not generate this setting just to let you spew churlish innuendo everywhere.  Some initial shock and attempts at humor might have been anticipated, but you have overreached yourself.

3. If you cannot figure out scumhunting, go learn.  At the moment, you are just making a complete fool of yourself.  This is not scumhunting.  This is not carefully concerned pressure.  You are playing to offend, and offend you have.

I will explain my statements, given that this game frequently does involve being offensive.  There is a certain level of offensiveness we generally consider an acceptable part of the game.  Namecalling happens; there are inevitable insults to masculinity, calls to crucify people, whatever.  After a certain point, however, all that grows to be too much.  You have crossed the line.



I had a hell of a time figuring out how to scumhunt.  Ultimately, you learn how by playing a lot of scum and looking at how you think (I think the basic sense of what to do kicks in at about 3 games or so, or at least mine did).  Once you've reverse-engineered your own scummy thought patterns, it's much easier to figure out what's going on with other people.

The only way you learn how to scumhunt is by scumhunting, not intentionally playing badly and finding that--true to form--yes, people do get angry when you try to incite them.  What a MIRACLE.  You must be a really smart guy, right?  Because anyone who can incorrectly imitate Alexhans is a really smart guy.  Makes me want to shake your hand for being so bloody clever.

You may be having trouble, but any difficulty you might have is no excuse for your current behavior.

Now, go learn how to play.  If you have any questions, the ICs will be there to help you.

LASD is ...voting me because I was not on Magmadeath yesterday- neutral.
Yeah, I just wanted to see if you'd jump, as that would be a question a scum wouldn't be happy to answer, especially coupled with a vote. You didn't jump. Unvote CobaltKobold

LASD, I could as easily have asked why you weren't killed in the night. I mean, you've mostly avoided suspicion as well, at least until now. I honestly don't know why I wasn't killed off, but I don't particularly see why I would have been either. So here's your question: Why do you think SirBayer was killed instead of someone else?
As I pretty much stated in my last post, I think the IC gave the idea of killing a lurkish person to catch a powerrole.
Don't confuse me LASD!

I still didn't get my sex change operation! I still have my manly parts.
I spent some time wondering whether I should use he or she in this setting, but chose the latter to have at least some flavor in the game.



I'm leaning on Refuge in Audacity in a Beginner Game to be more of a newtell (or a lucktell in the case of Nirur) than a scumtell (Big surprise as there's 4 people doing it and one scum left) The problem is that only leaves CobaltKobold and GlyphGryph. And I have to admit, I do not think GlyphGryph is scum. And not really CobaltKobold either.

So, I'd like everyone who hasn't yet answered the Ajah question to do that. Personally I have to go with Org on this, I choose Power and Red Ajah.

White, the a'ah I am, of course! I suppose the only difference with brown is whether it's like Aristotle or Galileo.

Also has the "advantage" of being the opposite of black (which I'd choose if it were characterised, but it is not)

I mean, none of them are that appealing at this point, but my non-tired personality is probably for White.

Vector:k. I'll cut the crap out. But that was certainly interesting wasn't it?
AND I wouldn't have learned all that if I wouldn't have tried right?

You could have figured it out by yourself, Rooster. If you had continued I'd have implemented a new policylynch.

LASD, your thought is, essentially, correct. After successfully lynching MagmaDeath, the scumbag he was, I'm back to square one, which means randomvoting. So, I try to gather some info, and then, compile it at day three, together with the latest deaths.

To answer that question with MagmaDeaths last post, I'm not concerned about it. The way I see it it's just a coupla last words, and whatever the mafia is plotting it should probably try to get the doctor, not focus its wrath on a hapless vanilla townie.

Since it's being asked a bit:

Whites focus on logic and reasoning to the point where everything else gets dumped to the curb.  The pride themselves with theorems of the world.  Emotion tends to get jettisoned for it. If you're thinking 'Vulcan' you got it right (though without the ears).

Browns hunt for information and knowledge.  Bookworm fits many of them.  Human Encyclopedia fits for many as well.  Nothing is taboo if it's information (learning ABOUT it that is, using taboo knowledge ....well... perhaps if you learn something).  They do get emotional but they also get so lost in their knowledge that they lose track of the world, making them seem air-headed.  The kind that can walk without a coat in the pouring rain and not notice that she's soaked.

Blacks tend to take on the mentality of the Ajah they cover as.

Errol: are you asking what I got, or what I'd like?

Yellow.

Cobalt(d?): Did you policy-vote me?
Errol: Do you declare that you would policy-vote?

Nirur: You didn't act like that when you were scum last time. That's certainly weird. isn't it?
You're you and you can't be not-you-you, and you isn't absolutely defined. the you-you is a subjective term therefore there cannot be a not-you you, so cut that out, and speak english.

Are you too policy-voting me?

Forgot to ask that(Everybody):

Declare reasons for voting someone based on definite acum-tell crimes.

Nirur's a passive player, he WIFOM'd indirectly (by telling that he's not acting like him. Which is weird since Mafia should generally act town)

Rooster, will the madness never end? This is not a policy lynch, this is lynching off scum. There are plenty of damn good reasons to vote for you, and your grasping at straws. You're not going to be able to WIFOM your way out of it. You've had no defense beyond, essentially, wanting to make trouble and experiment and then pointing your finger at Nirur. While I support experimenting, you are the scummiest player here.

Also, votecount please.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean with this statement? Are you saying you expect them to go after another lurker? Are you claiming that you're not the doctor? I'm having a bit of trouble trying to piece together your intent.

Org, since I keep forgetting you are playing and have no desire to let you just fade into the background, I'd like you to describe what you think of all the players and... uh... at least one other thing you can think of that results in a paragraph of least 3 sentences.

Blue, probably. Justice is important.

Rooster: It's both a policy vote and a vote against scumminess. If I had to choose two people to lynch, I would pick you and CobaltKobold. You're purposely giving off scumtells and trying to annoy people. (No, seriously. I'm not affected much, I just hate the thought of you getting suspended for a week, messing the game up.)

I realize that my argument against CobaltKobold sounds like WIFOM-rich nonsense, but I'll try again.

I suspect she is scum, using logic similar to something I would probably use in the same situation. She could have just NKed me (Unless there was a doctor protecting me), but she didn't. She was, however, VERY quick to point out that a day 1 lynch on a scumbuddy is pretty effective WIFOM.
She did very little on day one, aside from poking Errol for his mistakes. She stayed mostly silent about the entire Magma ordeal, aside from a pointless question shortly before the day ended.
