/confirm, and pleased with letter received.

[Mafuyu]

BLATANT SPECULATION:

G and M are scum. If you don't understand why, you suck!

[Mafuyu]

Strong? Mafuyu sees three acutes and two obtuses. That's not very impressive.

[Mafuyu]

HEY, HEY GANDALF

WHAT'S THE NAME OF YOUR POST/VOTE ABILITY?

TWO MINUTES. GO.

[Mafuyu]

POSTS INVOLVING HASTE ARE CAPPED FOR NO EXPLICABLE REASON!11!!!

[Mafuyu]

HEY GANDALF YOU DIDN'T ANSWER MAFUYU'S QUESTION

[Mafuyu]

TICK. TOCK.

[Mafuyu]

ANSWER THE QUESTION.

[Mafuyu]

NOT ROLE-CLAIMING, STANDARD ABILITY-CLAIMING. IT'S NOT A HARD THING TO REVEAL, REALLY. REVEAL YOUR POST/VOTE GIVING ABILITY.

[Mafuyu]

ok guys, explain to me why a gandalf policy lynch/quick lynch is good. Reasons.

Elli: Benmage didn't switch from one to another within a minute like you did. His Fate vote was RVS, yours wasn't (from the way your post went). I don't like ANYONE on the gandalf quicklynch wagon, but you're the one who stood out the most

Easy one, Mafuyu's query is serious and intentional. Query has not been answered.

[Mafuyu]

Vote Gandalf

[Mafuyu]

Mafuyu's reason is bloody fucking obvious.

[Mafuyu]

Gandalf apparently does not, which makes this frustrating. He's either bluffing ignorance or actually doesn't know, which is painful.

[Mafuyu]

No, Mafuyu's of the opinion that it's a standard ability set across all alignments, for the sake of if someone actually srsly has a post restriction or vote restriction/ability.

[Mafuyu]

Damn. So much for LaL, that actually looks legit.

@Mod: Obv.

[Mafuyu]

Catchup explanation for Gandalf: everyone supposedly has a Vote/Post passive ability, based on their letter. Since you phrased it "My Activity: Line", it seems like you didn't draw that conclusion. Which means you're not lying about being A. Your alignment is still up for debate, but Mafuyu didn't catch scum in a LaL scenario, which was the idea.

[Mafuyu]

Yeah. Mafuyu wanted to aggro early to see if gandalf's claim held up to snuff. If it didn't, it's a pretty good lynch reason. A lie, so early? For no legitimate reason? It didn't pan out, however.

[Mafuyu]

Oh wow. Just realized that my abilities all started with A. >.< This is why they let me go to college, it's because I'm such an incredibly intelligent person.

It was Mafuyu's rationale that pressured liar-scum wouldn't have easily found a plausible A-word for something posting/voting-related. The same goes for quite a few letters.

@Parama: Pointless? There's actually quite a bit of content. Granted, you had to be a part of it to notice (or read posting times, which many people do not), but it's definitely there.

[Mafuyu]

Kind of curious what X and Q's are now...

[Mafuyu]

You're an idiot.

Do you honestly expect content-per-post to exist in the middle of RVS, hours after the game started? The value comes from the string of posts, not individual ones. Seeing as the majority of players active are quick-firing posts, you're being pretty harsh because people can't cite specific content posts off the bat.

[Mafuyu]

Setting things up for two student organizations as well as a MishMash game? Oh, and a replace-in.

Exe takes the obvious interpretation road, amplified by the "People are like they usually are" line.

[Mafuyu]

For those that aren't aware, DNA?

[Mafuyu]

Reck, are you still mad that Mafuyu fucked up playing scum in GP2? ;.;

[Mafuyu]

This might be what Parama was complaining about, you know.

[Mafuyu]

Mafuyu is displeased. Friend/Mafuyu aggro was pretty effective, and now he's fucking dead.

[Mafuyu]

Also, with regards to Ellibereth, not rolefishing. Depending on if the claim was real, Ellibereth is most likely scum.

You think so? Then answer this:
Do you find it likely that there are two scum daykills in this game?

No point in posting my reasons until Ellibereth confirms the claim.

Plenty of point, unless you think your reasons might affect how Elli claims.

[Mafuyu]

?!?!? inhim, how you ignoring all this not so soft claiming....Vote Fate.

To be truthful, it does get hard to follow if you're not part of the post stream.

[Mafuyu]

?!?!? inhim, how you ignoring all this not so soft claiming....Vote Fate.

To be truthful, it does get hard to follow if you're not part of the post stream.

Do I really have to coach you too for your next move....

Being a sheep seems like a baaaahd move. Reading more first.

[Mafuyu]

That's quite the stretch.

[Mafuyu]

Play to Win.

[Mafuyu]

WARNING
BENMAGE IS PLAYING WELL

THIS IS NOT HIS TOWN META

so why haven't you voted Fate then?

oh nvm... i get it.

Was about to say.

[Mafuyu]

For curiosity's sake, your speaking/voting ability?

[Mafuyu]

Classy.

[Mafuyu]

Unvote

Good question. Eating.
VOTE: Fate

[Mafuyu]

Mafuyu's yet to see a game where FoSes that didn't have mechanical impact actually faze anyone.

[Mafuyu]

WE ARE NOT DOING THIS WHOLE 'OMG HE'S THE LYNCHER' THING AGAIN
FUCK NO

ON ANOTHER NOTE, THE MOD IS MISSING

YES HE IS
AND YOU SHOULD TYPE IN HAIKU

[Mafuyu]

Hum.

VOTE: Parama

[Mafuyu]

ITT half the players parrot the other half.

[Mafuyu]

ROGER ROGER!

Unvote, Vote Mysterio

[Mafuyu]

Regardless, lover death train is stupid if you get an excessive amount of townies involved as opposed to scum.

[Mafuyu]

BE YOUR OWN PERSON, ANI.

[Mafuyu]

Mysterio, care to tell us what you're contributing, then? All* of your posts seem to be complaining about how nobody is doing anything.

Fixed.

[Mafuyu]

But...Mafuyu's vote is right where she wants it! ;.;

[Mafuyu]

Yes, and when most applicable.

[Mafuyu]

>hide online status

Nah.

[Mafuyu]

I don't even know if we're taking this game seriously anymore.

Was it ever taken seriously?
@Mysterio: Go ahead. It's your own personal failings if you do. Part of playing the game is handling the other players.

[Mafuyu]

As expected, DGB turns the game on its head by being freaking ridiculous, yet likely on the ball.

Unvote

Reread time.

[Mafuyu]

scum.

do the calculation. that's the best guess with the given information.

It didn't have to be posted. Easy speculation ~= activelurking.

[Mafuyu]

KAIRYUU IS PLAYING WEIRD
AS IN, HE'S NOT PLAYING
AS IN, HE MIGHT BE SCUM

Crap, he is the analytical type, isn't he.
Funny how much you learn from reading Tar games.

[Mafuyu]

Vote Pacman

Mafuyu thought the third line was for a different reason. =P

Wait, then you made it not obv. Booo.

You think they are scum, hence why there are conveniently 9 there?

[Mafuyu]

GO BACK TO BASTARDRECKGAME, ZWET.

[Mafuyu]

[Mafuyu]

Okayfirstitwaslike "Lolcapslockwin"
Thenitwaslike "Woahbigtextfail"

[Mafuyu]

DGB got a tophat. Mafuyu's respect for DGB just went slightly down. ;.;

[Mafuyu]

@Kairyuu: He claimed. In a situation like this, the first claimer can be pushed aggressively for claim clarifications (read: the post/vote power) in an attempt to deduce if at the very least his claim is real. It seemed like a good thing to burn a few pages with, especially considering that a few players got caught up in the stream of events and are now subject to analysis.

Kind of confused why your opinion changed between pages 7 and 14. A quick look back at Mafuyu's posts in that timeframe are complaints and spam. o.O

[Mafuyu]

Agree with DGB. None of those are significantly town powers. Mafuyu was a Scum Commuter not too long ago.

[Mafuyu]

THIS and THAT?

Approval of faction names.
Also, DGB now sports iPod. You change your avatar like clothes. o.o

[Mafuyu]

Also, the accuracy of town thus far is pretty fucking awesome.

[Mafuyu]

Vote Chrono

Blindly following wagons seems to be working out pretty well so far.

[Mafuyu]

This is the first time Mafuyu's ever seen 'instaure' used in a sentence.

[Mafuyu]

ITT Mysterio is a fan of loaded language.

[Mafuyu]

Zero scumhunting, all bandwagon votes.

For curiosity's sake, considering that this applies 75%ish to Mafuyu, what's the significant difference that makes you mention gandalf and not Mafuyu? Or is it just that Gandalf's being annoying on purpose, and is thus the easier and more pronounced target for your set of statements?

@Gandalf: Didn't you learn your lesson already about partial claiming?

[Mafuyu]

Ani, sometimes you... -.-

[Mafuyu]

Mafuyu doesn't think it's a fake claim. Those Ws are plausible. Alignment, on the other hand..

[Mafuyu]

Mafuyu IS voting for him, you know. Stating the implication was superfluous.

[Mafuyu]

Mafuyu never knew DGB to be the type to flatter.

[Mafuyu]

Oh goddamnit.
Mafuyu's lost the frame of the discussion. Reread time.

[Mafuyu]

To confirm that Mafuyu is reading this correctly: Parama is a multi-shot rezzer AND ability negater? Or is one somehow a byproduct of the other (like a Reset Button technically being capable of doing both)?

This is one of those 'Mafuyu should have picked up subtext and inferred from that, but is a dumb fuck and needs it told blunt' moments.

[Mafuyu]

There are many roles which don't have a legitimate reason to reveal in the face of danger. That number, of course, dwindles the higher the ratio between TownPR:Antitown gets.

Hrm. Something just occurred to Mafuyu. Rereading every Dram flavor post right now.

[Mafuyu]

Wait, LyLo....in a game with 19 remaining players, any number of role interactions, and a presumably low number of surviving scum?
Is Mafuyu missing something?

[Mafuyu]

Mafuyu thinks, upon looking back, that Dram's posts need to be retained with as much coherence as possible. It's possible that, as the game progresses, any particular hints in the flavor text will be lost. Really, a mod who is slowly losing the capacity to communicate with his playerbase is a bad thing in general.

@Taz: Yes, but bear in mind that a significant number got wiped out pretty damn fast. Supposedly the starting number was nine.

[Mafuyu]

Mafuyu's not scum, kthnx.

[Mafuyu]

Fritzy internet availability does not a happy player make. Why are people voting Elli if they want a vig instead?

[Mafuyu]

By the way, do you know what a scribe might be? Mafuyu's been tossing that question around a bit.

[Mafuyu]

"Et tu?"

[Mafuyu]

Way to fail, Caesar.

[Mafuyu]

Vote Tazaro

Sounds like a plan.

[Mafuyu]

Why yes. You didn't notice this already?

[Mafuyu]

Oh, of another note: Where is DGB confirmed town by a cop? Mafuyu would like to see the surroundings of this post.

[Mafuyu]

Parama died, it's not perfect.
It could have been though. =/

[Mafuyu]

Oh, of another note: Where is DGB confirmed town by a cop? Mafuyu would like to see the surroundings of this post.

Either Mafuyu is retarded, or I am.

Mafuyu's retarded, yes. Also too lazy to page-skim right now.

[Mafuyu]

Considering the situation at hand, Mafuyu would like to claim, with DGB's blessing.

[Mafuyu]

Considering the situation at hand, Mafuyu would like to claim, with DGB's blessing.

Where's that claim, read my sig, kthx

CTF IRL. Got cancelled.

F, Jailkeeper, Flatter, Freeze. Targeted Friend every night applicable thus far. Considering the current lead town has, Mafuyu's of the interest of jailing a useful day-power role or any noteworthy players rather than protecting confirmed town.

[Mafuyu]

Unvote Vote BC

Sounds like a plan.

Mafuyu wants a JK target, and reasons why. Otherwise, Mafuyu's defaulting to one of (many) confirmed town.

[Mafuyu]

Life moves on?

[Mafuyu]

There's a significant slew of protective/confirmed/useful roles that this can stew over pretty easily overnight.

[Mafuyu]

@Mafuyu, you're killing me. Still refusing to contribute. Do not think that your claim fully absolves you of suspicion.

Oh, but it does. =)

[Mafuyu]

It's not really a slip. Bolding a loose statement doesn't make it a slip.

No one's claimed targeting you for a kill, DUH.

[Mafuyu]

BC needs to cross-reference night results.

[Mafuyu]

What about, what was it, night 3? was that mass roleblocked or something?

Yes. Therefore null for argumentative purposes.

[Mafuyu]

Mafuyu had no part in Mysterio's block.

Strange that scum nailed both a cop AND doc on the same night. PGO speculation ahoy.

[Mafuyu]

None of your business. Yet. Obviously not anyone that killed last night, which Mafuyu was gunning for. =/

[Mafuyu]

You're being trigger-happy for the wrong person, and isn't it Mafuyu's right to fish a reaction out of who got jailkept first? It seems like a waste to simply state who it was off the bat and not let the results stew a bit. In addition, this day shouldn't be ending without you day-killing a person (if it does Mafuyu would expect some scum involvement), so it's not like you're in a particular rush.

Make sense?

[Mafuyu]

It seems like you're the only one getting substantial information out of this exchange.

Mafuyu doesn't like it.

[Mafuyu]

Uh, tough shit? Let me make this clear:

You are my daykill target as of now.

However, I'm also giving you multiple ways to clear yourself. If indeed your JK target is the the one I tried to vig, that confirms your role and clears you for the time being. Even if your target is not the person I tried to vig, we can still use that information to find out if that person was roleblocked. If so, that also clears you as it's highly unlikely scum will have two roleblockers. Having said that, if you try to lie about your target and get called out on it, you're screwed.

As such, the only motivation I can think of for not revealing your target is because you're either lying about being a JK, or you're lying about roleblocking me.

So, do the pro-town thing and help clear yourself. Otherwise, we'll find out what your alignment is for sure the next time I login.

That's the faulty reasoning in your post. Neither is true, and yet here you stand saying otherwise. The fact is, you haven't even entertained the NOTION that Mafuyu might be looking for something, and that only a small portion of town has even posted since the day started. Threaten Mafuyu all you want, but do so AFTER 90% of town has showed up. You might have the gun, but you're not right in this.

[Mafuyu]

The correct answer is that Mafuyu's JK'd DGB for the last

2

nights. Someone hammered before Mafuyu could drop this information yesterDay.

Interesting the direction Pacman ran with it, however.

DGB, do you want Mafuyu to JK someone else, or has the damage been done?

[Mafuyu]

Considering the kill count of the last two nights (as well as the number of supposed scum remaining), it's probably safe to consider DGB a non-killing (and therefore likely town) role by now.

@Reck: He's surface-reading.

[Mafuyu]

Irksome is that 3 people died last night, including a vigilante, which leads to the question of whether or not he actually got a kill off.

[Mafuyu]

Hey cool confirmation.
Although, 4/11 is still pretty morbid-sounding.

[Mafuyu]

In other news, Mafuyu's name is still whole. SUCK IT!

[Mafuyu]

Now now, how often does Scum Commuter show up in games?

>>

[Mafuyu]

There is a joke to be had here. Mafuyu was scum commuter, like, a month ago.

[Mafuyu]

A bomb, then.

Obvious 'bomb+vengeful in same game?' comment.

[Mafuyu]

Correction: Super Saint.

[Mafuyu]

Mafuyu can't beelieve that you're delivering all of these bee puns. Honey, you should really stop while you're ahive.

[Mafuyu]

Mafuyu didn't fullclaim?

[Mafuyu]

Every night, I was watching Mysterio. Because I thought he'd be a top priority for the kill, and not thought to be doc-protected. When he died, I was JK'd by Mafuyu. Damn.

GEEZ SORRY. l.l

[Mafuyu]

@Triglav: Yes, which is exactly why Mysterio declared the intent to vig Mafuyu.

[Mafuyu]

Waitwaitwhat?

[Mafuyu]

It's your belief that Mafuyu is red scum. You're wrong, and even if you weren't you shouldn't just lump that in with the claim list. That being said, Mafuyu will hammer Taz if that is what is required.

[Mafuyu]

The answer to your question, by the way, is that as per the kill results, the odds of Friend being targeted were low, despite being confirmed town. So Mafuyu instead opted to go for an influential, yet unconfirmed player.

Fullclaiming F, Flatter, Freeze (again). Town Jailkeeper.

[Mafuyu]

Is Triglav confirmed?

[Mafuyu]

In addition, that's a large jump from start-game opinion, gandalf. What happened in the interim?

[Mafuyu]

Said night coinciding with when Mafuyu Froze you.

[Mafuyu]

Viva la town. Kairyuu, you'd do better to provide the option first before making those claims.

Every attempt sans the last two were Friend-Freezing. The last two were for DGB. Be wary of Triglav. Trust in DGB for maybe two days tops. If things persist longer than they should, look in to Friend juuuuuuuuuust in case. Rez isn't always a town role.

[Mafuyu]

Ah, right, there's also the most important aspect:

Vote Taz

[Mafuyu]

Believing Taz-Saint to be the counterbalance of Friend-Vengeful.

[Mafuyu]

Seems odd that town would get two nukes? One flipped death as town, so..

[Mafuyu]

Yay! Mafuyu's first wagon WAS scum! =D

[Mafuyu]

Did anyone else notice:

Scumteam: WASD.

Look at the keyboard.

[Mafuyu]

GEEZ SORRY MAFUYU THOUGHT YOUR DAYPLAY WARRANTED YOU NOT DYING.

=P

[Mafuyu]

So, could Dram be nice and un-dash the flavor text now?
