Or it just as likely means that the flavor is completely scrambled. I can show you any number of Theme games where no fake-claims were involved and the source flavor was in some way subverted (Kingdom of Loathing Mafia, Lost Season 1 and 2 Mafia, etc).

A) he has no one on him so he shouldn't whine too much I hope
B) I still have my gripes about his play but seeing that we won't come to an agreement today I'll just lay my vote there
P.S. If you do become in danger of being lynched today and I DO feel that you haven't be rightly givin a chance to defend I WILL unvote you but due to the odds of ever being in that scenario are high mainly because of vibe. is this OK?
Why do you not want to hammer?
Why go through such a convoluted thought process to ask Podium for his permission to vote him and explain in detail you will likely UNVOTE if he is wagonned?

Implosion, how familiar are you with Aqua Teen Hunger Force, will you recognise potentially scummy characters? MC Pee Pants and the 4 aliens are probably the most familiar bad guys. I don't think the professor would count but he could.
Seacore take a quick gander through the ATHF and tell me if you REALLY think that any characters really qualify as ‘Villans’
The Moonities are basically juvenile delinquents. The Plutonians are basically morons. Most of the characters are more harmless than evil.
Hell their Landlord I would classify as more evil than anyone else off the top of my head.

Again, though, if you seriously think this game needs "more discussion" as a solution, then you're way off base, my friend. That's why everyone is leaving in droves. That's why people like VibeBox are afraid to so much as look at this thread, let alone post in it. If you don't post a wall commenting on every like detail then you're made to look as though you're apathetic.
It is far from dramatic RC. And I’ll only respond to your suggestion that the volume of posts is driving people off with the following truth – Reading isn’t a hardship.
I’d really like to see Vibebox come in and actually post content with reasoning. All he’s done so far is play defense and make unsupported reads lists coupled with generic game theory.
RedCoyote wrote:I felt similarly, but why do you think Nacho has taken to him?
Because Nacho is going out of his way to be useless and Anti-Town for whatever reason he has.
RedCoyote wrote:It's a wonder players like MoI and Nacho don't seem to get it.
I carved this particular sentence out to say quite honestly its crap. My interactions with Podium took off well after he and Fate / Nacho has stopped Spam-bombing the thread. I’m questioning Podium to get a read on his alignment. He’s hardly being bombarded by me faster than he can respond and aside from KCDA no-one else is interacting strongly with him currently. We can continue to disagree as to playstyles if you like but I doubt it will really get us anywhere scum-hunting wise.
RedCoyote wrote:I mostly agree with this in a kneejerk sort of way, but we should be resistant to assuming anything so broad, as MoI has pointed out. Did the Mod tell us whether or not the game has barrier? Is the entire franchise fair game, or just a certain amount of seasons? I've only seen up through season 6. An episode I think we can rely on, and I don't remember the number but I'm pretty sure it was season 4, where most of the "bad guys" met together on the Moon at the Mooninites' invitation.
The Mod has indicated nothing other than that the game might be ‘slightly bastard’. That said answer the following question –
In a series with probably 100+ secondary characters and antagonist and at best 4 protagonists (Frylock, Shake, Meatwad and maybe Carl) do you honestly think the informed minority Scum team is in any way shape or form going to be easy to spot?
I honestly don't think so. Hell at this point I'd be willing to take a wild guess and say Meatwad isn't really dead but is the Mafia team Godfather.
RedCoyote wrote:You people have even managed to wear Fate out. How shameful.
Umm he’s posted this in all his games. Seeing as Fate was one of the main culprits behind the many pages I don't think he's been worn out by this thread.
"I am a leaf on the wind ... watch how I soar!"
Pretty much Geriatric game restricted at this point ... unless there are players I REALLY want to play with.
