SMBM 1: IoBC GAME OVER! CONGRATULATIONS: TOWN AND KAMIKAZE!

[Iecerint]

The mod is someone who likes Super Mario RPG enough to base an entire game around it. While I expect a few surprises along the way, I don't expect a set-up that violates major game premises. (Like, Mario-scum would be OK, villain-scum would be OK; totally random alignments are not expected).

I also don't expect the mod to do much with Pa Mole and Ma Mole, since they're extremely minor characters who have like 8 lines in the entire game. A subversion involving them would make a one-scene-only character into a major game event, which seems like squandering built-in drama.

If the game were a bastard game with a less esoteric theme -- "office romance" or something -- I'd have a different attitude toward roles.

So it's basically /outguess. YMMV, but I still feel pretty strongly about it.

Regarding your specific "Pa Mole becomes 3rd party after other dies" idea -- if the theory is that MG has recently become scum, I don't think there's any scumtell, because his play hasn't changed D1 to D2 AFAICT.

Sergeant Flutter.

That's me, btw.

Yeah it was written in sort of an unexpected way in my PM, sorry I missed it. Try to resist mocking me, when we're done I'll post the PM and you'll see.

[GhostWriter]

Righto. I focused mostly on today and used isos to fill in the stuff from before, as they are often easier to work with. And I am freaking confused as hell. I come up with a lot of people I see that I can easily place as almost certainly town, though I'll name no names. I just have a real problem finding anyone who's really overly scummy. So I intend to go with a gutshot and see where things go from there. VOTE: Nexus.

Also, I would've posted sooner, but it turns out there are a lot of parties and club events around Christmas and the New Year... and I have friends that know of them and even do photography for it, meaning I get invited often, and wasn't home a lot.

That makes sense. I'll leave you to your scumhunting then. Also, yea the theory of that was just something I came up with, nothing serious.

Ill see if anyhing else pops up from previous convo that I want to address

[Midnight's Sorrow]

Oh Mallengeno. Tsk tsk.

Only you would find it OMGUS.

I myself, find it simply being made aware of the game your trying play. Mold if you will.

VT indeed.

If only my Snifits cried home thus.

[Iecerint]

I should point out that it

is

kind of a subversion that they're both in the game without being linked at all...that's a surprise to me.

[Nexus]

Sorry I haven't been around, I had to work almost full time hours, and then it was Xmas, and now I'm ill.

Couple this with the general pace of the game, and I'm struggling to get motivated.

HOWEVER.

Whyare you gut fancying me GW? Gut is a poor excuse for voting on Day 2.

[chkflip]

And your nameclaim was a poor excuse for a nameclaim.

Does it read Johnny Jones?

[GhostWriter]

Was I just asked to explain a gut vote?

[Nexus]

You were asked to explain a gut vote on Day 2. Gut is a shit excuse.

Yes, Johnny Jones is my name. Short of actually quoting my role PM, I can't prove it.

[Nexus]

FWIW, I have never played the game, I only joined the themed game because the mod asked me to~

[chkflip]

Well, FWIW, I think you're lying. His

friends

call him Johnny, so I don't particularly understand why that's the first name it'd give you... y'know, for it being such a particular character and all.

BURN TO A CRISP: Nexus

[GhostWriter]

It is what it is. There is no concrete evidence, or even paper-mâché evidence to the vote, however you have the feeling of mafia just cruising along. A feeling I feel in my gut. Making it a gut feeling. And on a Day 2 with as much random crap and outrageous numbers of deaths as this one, I doubt trying to put down what should be normal Day 2 behavior will go very well. We've already, for whatever reason, had a second semi-RVS...

[Bunnylover]

I'm back, going to read the stuff I missed, will post if I find something I need to give my opinion on or something

[curiouskarmadog]

behind a page or two...will update monday or tuesday

[danakillsu]

This game has kind of died for me. Somebody say something interesting/controversial!

[Bunnylover]

Well since this game is slooping down, we need to fix that v_v.

Right now I am still wondering why we even named claimed.

Still wanting to hear an answer for that, lets have everybody bold the people who would be most likely to be town just by their claimed character.

mallowgeno- MA MOLE
Bunnylover- Jinx
Midnight's Sorrow- Booster
curiouskarmadog- Mallow
chkflip- Princess Toadstool
jimfinn- Yoshi
Zdenek- Toad
SwiftStrike- MARIO

My list is fairly simple. My name since I know my alignment, then Mario, Mellow, and all the other main character. MA Mole due to the fact that their was a PA mole who flipped town.

[Swiftstrike]

I can't see how list a likely list of town players is progressive usually as it would allow scum to know who to target doing so off names in a bastard mod game sounds like suicide, I don't see how we can take any names as given as all the dead scum have been smithy gang members and yet none of the name claims are so either the scum have been given fake claims or have come up with them. I think the former as otherwise it would be to easy to break the game and bowser said that the game is protected against that.

[Lowell]

I agree with the above. It's a self-proclaimed bastard-mod setup. Not really clear why anyone thinks the names are going to do much for us.

[Nexus]

Scum looking for easy targets to set up easy lynches, perhaps?

[Bunnylover]

Just trying to get some kind of discussion going to pick up the speed of the game.
I know its idiotic to think Name Claim = Town.

[Nexus]

So what do you think of Chkflip using name as a reason to burn me?

[Iecerint]

It calls him Johnny in-game.

[Bowser]

Head_Honcho explodes! Day continues.

Hope you all had a nice New Year's and Christmas. Back to work you go.

Deadline is in two weeks, which should be the 20th, at 7pm EST. Good luck.

I am very upset by people flaking out. This is getting really frustrating seeing only a handful of players that are left posting. You sign up for a game, you are obligated to play it.

To those of you that have stayed in this game until their demise (or still playing), good job. Keep it up.

[Bunnylover]

So what do you think of Chkflip using name as a reason to burn me?

Its not totally illogical.
Although, I wouldn't put my vote on you for that reason alone.
