Cyclic Experimentation Set x01 - [Game Over]

VOTE: EU3248724 (EtherealCookie) for being the best SK

@curiouskarmadog
Who? First I've known about it...

[AntB]

Currently I'm not liking Muh, a couple of posts and no content; I'm also not liking quadz based on his "scumslip" vote on paramas nulltell.

I'm not too keen on the idea of a massclaim early on, however removing anti-town abilities early on could prove beneficial then the scum would be left guessing as to what is in game and where...

Also the spud has a "time limit" of X amount of posts for those who missed it... I would guess that the trigger is around 150~250 posts.

@MoL
Don't Like != "OMG scum *vote*

@Implosion
Voicing an opinion is parroting, noted. In that case there are several parrots in my flock. Also, those are my genuine opinions at that point in the game.

@All
If muh flips scum, parama is obvitown imo, I reckon theres about a 99% chance of that right now.

[AntB]

@quadz
Why would scum bomb scum like that?

@popsofctown and themanhimself
Best way to illustrate strawman arguments is person A and B are debating, A says beer laws should be relaxed, B strawmans by saying that relaxing laws on intoxicants would be too detrimental. Beer is a specific, intoxicants is a broader range of substances and as such, the argument is taken out of its initial context and eliminated by means of over-exaggeration. I fail to see both sides. Will review now.

P-O-P-EDIT:
From what I understand Occams Razor is the logical aspect against Strawman'ings exaggeration.

[AntB]

quick review

@popsofctown
There was no comment or question aimed directly at you between your #107 and #110, given there was nearly an hour between the two posts it strkes me as odd. Your previous post #99 also does not hint at feeling strawmanned either, despite the only response after being "I'm ignoring you"

[AntB]

Quick update as I'm not at home.

Muh flipping town leaves a null on Parama.

@All
Trying to discern alignment from who has what role is pointless, anyone of any alignment can get any role so... its pointless.
Also, any role claims should be treated with suspicion currently IMO, from what I can gather we could have any kind of ability on any person at any point. Conditional Vigilante could just as well be a cover for a Corrupted Server ability.

I'll catch up more later, possibly tomorrow.

[AntB]

The best way I believe for implosion to prove he is a treestump is to hammer someone. We see the vote, the mod would ignore it, meaning no hammer. Quick, dirty, doesn't waste a lynch.

@implosion
This is all speculative based on the role variation which has been so far revealed. Nothing to be taken into account.
Viruses come in many shapes and forms, some erase your computer, some fill it up, some turn it into a zombie computer and you get the idea. The game start flavour states we are all grouped on platforms, I assume from this that there are multiple virus types and to centralise an attack would be to attack the platform itself. I can't see any ability killing all players on a platform but perhaps randomising votes without notice, auto-hammering, changing required lynch ratio, and possibly even freezing us out altogether for a Cycle.

@Narsis
Wagon jump?

FoS

@Saint
There is absolutely no excuse at all for bad language. Also your random posting is annoyingly suspicious...

FoS

Also, re-read your

@WrathChild

Hi guys, I'm new here, so forgive me if I don't know the meta or joke-phase protocol, so..

And yet you jumped into a Large Theme Game... Did you even read the Newbie Guide?

HoS

@All
Muh had more than sufficient opportunity to pass on the potato. Despite being at school he could have sent it to another player other than just posting "I got the potato" and "A real post is where I type and press submit". His deletion is his own doing, anyone blaming Parama needs to rethink the situation.
WrathChild seems to buddy up to popsofctown, and "I'll let you off because its your scumday" reeks more than Auld Reekies sewer system.
Paramas "no go town bah post? hehehehe" rubs me the wrong way. Why fish a dead guy? that laugh makes me O_o as well...
My opinion of parama being obvitown if muh flipped scum was simply my opinion. Why would a scum pass it to another scum, town points sure. But that seems to unorthodox even for me at this point in the game as its too much WIFOM and could easily backfire. As muh has flipped town it leaves it as null on Parama.

[AntB]

HoSing someone for being a newbie and signing up for a Large Theme? Your scumhunting here is faker than Heidi Montag.

lol @ "faker than Heidi Montag". Seriously though, we have a newb/IC hydra in here whose evidently made an effort, Wrathchild just plain didn't read up on anything. Only reasons for that is offsite coaching, say by a quicktopic? or he thinks hes soo 1337 he doesn't need to read up.
Either way, not looking good to me.

Trying to discern alignment from who has what role is pointless...

UNVOTE:
VOTE: AntB

No it's not.
We don't want scum to control every single ability in this game

So your telling me in a game where any alignment can get any ability, we can figure out someones alignment from their role.
Did you read/understand what I put or did you autopilot?

--Just noticed EC posted this as well.


Time to turn up the heat I think. VOTE: AE8363413 for Bandwagoning without ANY referance to EC in any of his posts except for the vote and absolutly zero reasoning. Even if your V/LA you could have just said V/LA instead of voting if you were in that much of a rush to not post any reasoning.

[AntB]

Its flavor and user-codes. your supposed to vote using the codes on the first page
Rule 9 in Voting, Deadlines, Deaths and Activity:
You may use a Player's Flavour Designation (ex. MS1775305) as an identification in votes.

Guessing even the mod forgot that

[AntB]

p.s. I would also be happy voting EC or AntB

Your happy to vote me, yet have made no mention of me or aired any suspicions? The post I've quoted is the only one that contains my name in it.

FoS Saint

[AntB]

@RC
Just going with the flavour, but I'll vote "normal" if its going to bug people that much.

@Saint
You willing to lynch me, despite never mentioning me before that post. I don't like that you just called me out like that without provocation and more impotently, without evidence. Why me specifically? How do you get that "[I'm] a great player"? There is practically no usable meta on me unless you've been through me active games, which would suggest you either already have suspicions or are basing your voting strategies based primarily on meta.

Also, I would like whoever you are to post without Vi's help on this one please.

[AntB]

He hasn't even mentioned vibes yet, it was a straight and simple

p.s. I would also be happy voting EC or AntB

First mention of me in any one his posts. Nothing about scummy or vibes. I haven't specifically called it out as scummy, just something which has raised my suspicions of him slightly more.
He says my FoS seems a bit OMGUS to him then he makes an AtE by saying "[I'm] a great player". Seems a bit odd to dismiss my FoS as OMGUS then trying to get on my good side...

The reason for not wanting Vi's input for this one as the guy evidently needs a hand standing on his own two feet in Mafia, hence the hydra with Vi. I am assuming that post was made without Vi's input (its seems slightly out of place to the others) so I want him to explain himself without a helping hand.

[AntB]

I haven't actually played with Vi but I am well aware of her reputation and ability. If I was to just say, completely at random I want you lynched, provided I have made no evidence, pointed no fingers and as such have otherwise ignored you, you wouldn't find that suspicious?

To clarify once again:
Saint has made absolutely NO mention of me in any post prior to the one I quoted, raise no suspicions, reported no "scum" vibes, made absolutely no comment on me at all, then comes out with "I would be happy voting EC or AntB". This is his first mention of me and he states he would be happy voting for me. His response on being challenged about it is AtE.

So either:
Vi has told him to watch me and slipped up in doing so - doubtful as I'm pretty much an unknown so far on site.
OR
He slipped up, badly.

[AntB]

HoS for newb and no attempt to learn or even read up on how mafia works. Pressure to read up, not my best move by a long shot but it seems to have done something.

FoS on Saint for a load of random crap and seeming trying to throw people off.
Could also be an attempt to cover up the future post saying who he's prepared to vote for, hoping we'll think Saint, skip. Scumbuddies would keep an eye on it.

2nd FoS was for randomly coming out of the blue with he'd be happy to vote me, go read through it properly and you'll see what I mean.
I'm waiting for Saint to reply before moving my vote.

Did you read why I voted for Narsis?
He bandwagon-voted EC without a single mention of EC in any of his posts. Hardly gut feeling. In fact, he did pretty much the same as Saint has done to me but actually placed his vote.

FoS didin

Mis-rep my vote as "gut" despite clear explanation in the associated post.

[AntB]

Meta Hunt
PM'd

[AntB]

He asked for a game I had completed, he has been PMd in response. I can copy in here if needed.

[AntB]

Are you retarded?

Also, technically, yes I am. If my condiction was any further advanced I would be in permanent care.

As its not directly game related I fail to see how the rule is broken. He's after meta which I have made easily available if you know how to use a browser.

[AntB]

either way, its The Erucis call. If I done bad, crap happens. the PM contained no information attributable to this game, replace me instead of modkill me. Why lower chances? I will make the PM available to him on his request.

[AntB]

Trust me, there's nothing you can't find by clicking my wiki link and "I really should find there game I kicked ass as werewolf, circular reasoning ftw."

Its buried in archives from 2008 on Kongregate, I can't find it.

[AntB]

Nope, I said I should find it... I couldn't.

[AntB]

Well I still don't believe it contained any game relevant content.

I don't like modkills, so I'll replace out if people want me to or Eruci can replace me.

P-Edit:
Too Late, my bad. Will monitor anyway.
