Mini 961: Insane Asylum II: GAME OVER :O!

[Iecerint]

Which part are you lolwut-ing?

[Haylen]

All of it. Cause it made no sense at all to me. ^_^ Tbh, it is late here though and I generally have trouble understanding what you're all on about when I'm wide awake, the only one I understand fully all the time is DGB :/

[dramonic]

Like that requires a lot <<

ANYWAYS!

Socio is still alive. Makes me sad really!
AND I've yet to get an answer bout the sanity thing<<

[Iecerint]

1. All three of the players SP listed in the bit you quoted are not in this game. He was talking about his reads in a game that DGB had alluded to. I fail to believe that you are paying THAT little attention to the thread, so I think your statement was a failed attempt to lampshade that you are not paying attention to the game, maybe to deal with Tar's concerns.

2. As the subset of players in this game increases, the prior probability that said subset includes scum increases. That is not the gambler's fallacy; it is math. This part is probably a legitimate error or misunderstanding on your part, so I put it in parentheses.

3. I'm voting you because Tar appears to have secret information on you of some kind (probably via QT stuff; I dunno), I think Tar is probably town on account of the nature of his crumbs, and your comeback post was literally too awful to be believed.

[StrangerCoug]

I'd still like a SocioPath lynch, but I see myself being easily persuaded to switch off to Haylen or Iecerint, my two scumreads other than that. I'm willing to put stock in people being afraid of my kill that's now likely not going to happen being scum, hence why I'm willing to vote Haylen, and my last post with content said Iecerint comes off scummy after his argument with magnus_orion, which explains my willingness to vote Iec.

[farside22]

Okay here's where I'm confused. Tar votes haylen...I assume this is based on his feel that one of the neighbors is scum and he's reads her the scummiest. I asked both DGB and Haylen. DGB ignores the question but Haylen believes one of the neighbors may be scum but says DGB is town. Doesn't that mean that if she believes one is scum that Tar may be scum and should be questioned?
I really dont' see Iec as scum. I think he's handling the pressure well that magnus and others put on.
SP's vote on DGB makes no sense.

vote: haylen

So if you believe one may be scum in the neighbor group why are you not question or voting on anyone in the group? Who do you believe is scum?

[magnus_orion]

haylen, who is scum?

The Twenty-Fifth "Pathological Gambling" Vote Count

"Problem gambling (ludomania) is an urge to gamble despite harmful negative consequences or a desire to stop. Problem gambling often is defined by whether harm is experienced by the gambler or others, rather than by the gambler's behavior. Severe problem gambling may be diagnosed as clinical pathological gambling if the gambler meets certain criteria. Although the term gambling addiction is common in the recovery movement pathological gambling is considered to be an impulse control disorder and is therefore not considered by the American Psychological Association to be an addiction"

Mod Note: Seriously, just because I'm not prodding right now doesn't mean that you can get away with not posting.

Besides the game balance reasons for Haylen being scum - has her player slot done ANYTHING pro-town this game? (Not to mention that if she is town and thinks that a) there is scum in our masonry and b) that DGB is town then she should be attacking the hell out of me. But she's being passive. I'm pretty sure that's a scumtell for her, though I'll need to meta to be sure.)

Iecerint looks more town in his most recent posts (though the question of who exactly IS scum if he's town remains a good one).

I'd still like a SocioPath lynch, but I see myself being easily persuaded to switch off to Haylen or Iecerint, my two scumreads other than that. I'm willing to put stock in people being afraid of my kill that's now likely not going to happen being scum, hence why I'm willing to vote Haylen, and my last post with content said Iecerint comes off scummy after his argument with magnus_orion, which explains my willingness to vote Iec.

Wait... WHAT?!

StrangerCoug: Why "I see myself being easily persuaded to switch"? Why not something more active such as "I could get behind a lynch on these two players"? The former implies passivity (a scum/neutral mindset, since scum don't really care who gets lynched as long as it's not them) and an attempt to shirk responsibility for your actions (pretty big scumtell).

HoS: StrangerCoug

(this may switch to a vote, depending on Haylen and your actions)

[Haylen]

Excuse me for a few hours.

[DrippingGoofball]

farside looks bored, she's probably vanilla.

SC is scum. I can't believe he's gotten away with that fakeclaim business, and the fake excuses the day after.

Icerink is also scum.

Haylen is worrying me to no end. She did the same thing in a now-abandoned mini-theme, but she's doing it even more here. But. I'm going to stick my neck out and call her town.

I get no scum vibes from Tar. Since he's looking for an explanation as to why my teeth aren't in his calves.

Actual I got in trouble at work just recently so I may be feeling quiet blah over the next few weeks.
Appologies ahead of time.

SP's vote on DGB makes no sense.

Makes no sense from a lazy point of view.

The only reason I'm not switching is that I see my SocioPath case as having the most stock. If my Iecerint or Haylen cases were stronger, I'd ditch the SocioPath vote and move to one of them without saying "I could be persuaded with this" or "I could get behind this".

In addition, I consider my wording as implying less willing to switch than "I could get behind a lynch on these two players," but not unwilling.

Go through my games as scum. I'm smarter than this as that alignment, and if I were scum, I would have found it easier to explain the lack of a vig kill as my getting roleblocked.

[UncertainKitten]

Bout ready to mass prod all you fuckshits. POST, DAMMIT

Maybe you thought it was clever.

I think I'm going back to my original Socio, Haylen, SC team.

If you say so. But seriously I don't get most of your points at all.

DGB: Are you avoiding my question on purpose here? Do you think that there is scum in the neighbor group your in? Why?

[Tarhalindur]

*raises eyebrow*

Unvote

for now (don't want any quickhammers).

Haylen, claim in your next post or my vote goes back on you.

[Iecerint]

I think DGB is scum. Little evidence of careful reading, little evidence of thoughtfulness in her read on me. Those are the opposite of townDGB in my experience.

Haylen's last few posts were super-awful, though.

Tar is my super-town friend. farside is my regular-town friend.

[DrippingGoofball]

DGB: Are you avoiding my question on purpose here? Do you think that there is scum in the neighbor group your in? Why?

I did say I think there is. It is you who is not reading. I was also the first to mention it in the group QT, Tar can attest to that.

We're just too many to all be confirmed town.

And my idiot predecessor claimed in that group QT, so that the scum knows my role.

[DrippingGoofball]

...little evidence of thoughtfulness in her read on me.

I know you as if I had knitted you myself.

[farside22]

DGB: Which person do you find scum in the neighbor group then?

[DrippingGoofball]

DGB: Which person do you find scum in the neighbor group then?

I'll tell you who is town: Tar and myself. Elli flipped town. So by PoE, I suspect the rest. I don't recall if they've been outed yet.

This is graaaaaand.

Group is ME, DGB, TAR, YOS and HAYLE.

Oh there is the group.
OH BUT YOS AND ELLI ARE DEAD.
So that is:
DGB, TAR, HAYLE.

So by "PoE" since Tar and DGB are obviously town to DGB, the "rest" would be HAYLE.

But just few posts ago:

Haylen is worrying me to no end. She did the same thing in a now-abandoned mini-theme, but she's doing it even more here. But.

I'm going to stick my neck out and call her town.

Yeah, I can see your neck sticking out alright.


...So both Haylen AND DGB say "yeah, one is probably scum"...and both have "town reads" of people still alive in the group...

AND YET HAYLEN DOESN'T ATTACK TAR.
AND DGB DOESN'T ATTACK...ANYONE.
