Cyclic Experimentation Set x01 - [Game Over]

[DrippingGoofball]

DGB no one wants to watch you. If someone kills you we'll be happy enough that we've found out your alignment. No need to put all the bets on one horse.

But, you dumdum, you'd find out who's targeted me for, you know, DEATH.

[DrippingGoofball]

In other news, Q21 is looking like "scum giving up."

[popsofctown]

what would that prove?

[DrippingGoofball]

what would that prove?

That I was killed by you know, scum, which you could then lynch?

[popsofctown]

Killing townies implies a player is scum? Then maybe we should lynch you.

[DrippingGoofball]

Killing townies implies a player is scum? Then maybe we should lynch you.

Are you like this naturally, or are you faking it???

You would know, if I were, say, SHOTGUNNED, that I was gunned down by scum, right?

And since you spent all day calling me SK, and I'm just going LOL, the scum has to NK me at the first opportunity, right?

[implosion]

BTW if ckd flips scum that would make me confirmed town and IAI confirmed town (although I'm pretty sure I'll cut myself if he's mafia) and likely others as well, and as such I'd like to request protection from any roles that are capable of it. That is, the role reuser (or whatever it was called) should take doctor, and it and any other protective roles should be on confirmed townies, IMO.

I see no reason we can't wait a day or so to claim it though. It's really not going to help out the town to know about it. It's pretty useful if you use it as an investigative role, but we can wait until someone finds scum with it before we claim it. Don't you think?

Agreed.

Time out. Why is CKD getting off the hook for his failed Tree stump pass to TMH?

*headdesk*

ckd's Tree Stump pass, on its own, is worth a lynch.

This may take a reread to confirm, which I don't really feel like doing since this may be answerable with a simple question, but didn't you have a fairly strong townread on CKD even after he failed to pass the stump? I might be mixing stuff up chronologically, but if not, I think this might be an incredibly blatant contradiction.

But somehow I don't think the mod is treating the watcher ability like a recessive sex-linked genetic disorder

I lol'd.

[popsofctown]

I think you are mixing it up chronologically, the way I recall it Vi was a ckd fan before the failpass, the furcolow was the only one posting ckd love after the failpass.

DGB I was kidding. Settle down. But anyhow, from our PoV you're not a definite target tonight, while the plethora of conftownies are.

[I Am Innocent]

It is interesting, whoever PlsLynchMe passed the role to could use the Watcher (on DGB) instead of the Doctor (on a very townie playeR) N4. Not sure I'd advocate one over the other publicly, let's let the person who has it decide what to do privately to keep the scum in the dark on what they should do.

But good suggestion none-the-less.

[popsofctown]

hey that reminds me.

PSA: L-2 IS NOW L-1 and L-1 IS A HAMMER BECAUSE DOUBLE VOTE IS POTENTIALLY IN PLAY.

My concern is that she has an entire faction. Does the flavor really rule out two scumteams? Why does everyone seem to think that's impossible?

Nothing in the flavor does (although seeing red used for one faction hints at it somewhat.) However, the setup and her actions pretty consistently hint at SK. I would love to be proven wrong on this, specifically by her flip.

The avatars in this thread just clicked up two notches of awesome, btw. Is this your method of bribing me, pops?

I'm not particularly fond of ckd not passing the Stump and not doing more than whine (how dare you try to usurp my status as Most Convenient LyLo Mislynch <_< ), but the creeping wagon on him is not comforting at all.

I'm totally skipping the Reinitializer talk due to tl;dr. Because the mod just came out and said "oops", I think it's safe to wait for an update before bothering much with it. (fake edit: lol, she's evidently not in any hurry to reveal anything)

I actually DO agree with pops about Coug. What, exactly, is Coug screwing in 2247? Fake appeal to emotion is indeed very fake, and a poor cover for jumping on the wagon.

And since you spent all day calling me SK, and I'm just going LOL, the scum has to NK me at the first opportunity, right?

I think it's within the realm of possibility to think they already tried~

This may take a reread to confirm, which I don't really feel like doing since this may be answerable with a simple question, but didn't you have a fairly strong townread on CKD even after he failed to pass the stump? I might be mixing stuff up chronologically, but if not, I think this might be an incredibly blatant contradiction.

No, you're right. This IS an incredibly blatant contradiction. With that said, if you pushed a lynch on quadz (who was unkind enough to be Town after all of my attacking) and defended themanhimself to some ludicrous extent (which he repaid by being scum) YOU'D want to toss all your previous reads too.

Snarkiness aside, I've already explained based on stuff on page 4 that ckd didn't seem like likely Town, and used that as a basis for my future reads. It's true that he hasn't done much good since, but also not much harm (as evidenced by the vote count analysis I posted before). I'm not thrilled to vote him, but after getting burned by tmh being scum in spite of being rationalizable, I'm not going to fight his lynch.

[nhammen]

The Void Collector has the same restriction as other abilities, which for me is that I cannot pass more than 1 ability to the same player each night.

Do the collected abilities have the same restrictions as well?

@ Everyone, please state in your next post if you think at this point in the game, whether we should mass claim our roles from D1/N1 & D2/N2? And why you feel that way.

I think that at this point, the amount of information we have is quite much. Adding more can't do to much worse than already has been.

since I misunderstood the ability and thought I didn't have to pass anything I didn't remove from the void, you got the dayvig at random.

This explains it.


Still catching up, but have to do something else, so will get to the rest tomorrow.

[I Am Innocent]

Do the collected abilities have the same restrictions as well?

Yes, the night/dawn I took the Hibernate ability from the void, I was told I would have to pass the Hibernate Ability and Void Collector to different players.

[popsofctown]

Actually I was planning to RL spam the thread about my wondrous adventures ballroom dance class but figured that'd be rather off alongside Rika, so I tried to brainstorm a more masculine avatar. I decided I prolly actually shouldn't spam since it's already adequately irked you this game, but then since I came to the realization that I had not done an avatar of the crocodile transformation of Banjo during all this, an avatar change became absolutely and forcefully inevitable.

You better be afraid of what happens if one of my to or fro cycling partners flips scum. You'll have to use google searches with advanced settings on to find my content then .

[popsofctown]

Hey, I don't like the way the forum depicted that emoticon. I'm totally writing some angry emails to mith.

Anywhoo, implosion, I think we should at least claim the role from the q21-implosion-pops change by twilight, would you agree?

[implosion]

Maybe. I'm honestly not sure if there are any strong upsides or downsides to claiming it. I can think of one possible upside of claiming it possibly during twilight, so I guess we might as well at some point.

[popsofctown]

We'll just twilight claim then.

[DrippingGoofball]

hey that reminds me.

PSA: L-2 IS NOW L-1 and L-1 IS A HAMMER BECAUSE DOUBLE VOTE IS POTENTIALLY IN PLAY.

I don't think we're at L-2, and in any event, if anyone uses the double-vote, and we know who it is, they'll be confirmed scum and as good as dead.

[popsofctown]

Not if they silence the only person who'd know.

With 12 alive, it takes 7 to lynch.

Deadline for Day Four is Saturday February 19th, 2011, at 7:00pm EST.

I lol'd.

That was me
CKD would have had to have been bussing to have been scum. He also buddied up to DarlaBlueEyes, a town mislynch, which buys him town cred from me.

His lack of passing might just mean he viewed the situation differently than we did. I would be OK voting him, possibly, but I'm not convinced.

[Saint]

bunnylover openly wagonned quadz, a townie, in an rvs style vote
bunnylover quickhammered powerrox, a townie, then his defense was "if you want to attack me for that, fine"
he also appears to have more knowledge of the setup than anyone I've seen yet, while having the grammar of the uneducated.

Anti-town voting + unexplainable knowledge = scum

vote: bunnylover

lol I'm sorry, I suck at grammar :<.
I didn't quickhammered anyone. I did vote for powerrox. The question that went unanswered was, "Does your ability pass on?" which to me that is an obvious, "Yes my ability cycles."
Would you have rather me not make a choice between Powerrox and TMH?

I dislike that you put "townie" in your post against me. I do not know anyone elses alignment besides myself. I do not know if Quadz is town, I do not know if Powerrox is town, nor did anyone else on their wagon knew he was town. Their is probably 5 scum, which means townies are going to be on a wagon.

o.o I thought I was lost in this game with the abilities talk, now I have more knowledge x_x.

@Pops: I wouldn't have expected the virus to show up their after it been used (I'm guessing that when it showed up?).
By the way, we need to get rid of this power. I can see pro side of having this power, but I also see a glaring negative side. IF you haven't thought about it, then I can explain it be rather not since I don't think scum have thought about it yet.

Weak defense of "I don't know anyones alignments" with AtE into asking pops about setup analysis

pops/bunnylover scumteam
add Q21 to that list

[Saint]

Now I understand.
Pops actually makes a point. If DGB did kill scum the second night, then obviously he/she knows who shot N3, so why haven't they come out or DGB announce who they are.

@LMP: I think its because of what DGB says, so either its you or DGB who is lieing. I'm still trying to understand that whole post.

DGB
DGB
DGB
when dgb is in the op listed as eruci
focusing on the SK should be a scumtell
when I'm scum, however, I call them scum (like pops is doing in the post that is making you say NOW I UNDERSTAND)

[Saint]

Vi, do you feel bunnylover and pops are buddying?
You said you're happy with the bunnylover vote, and pops responses/grilling of DGB. If you answered yes to the above, care to explain how you can be happy with a vote on someone, and with another player they are buddying, both at the same time? Do you feel like one of them are scum, and one are town?

Not trying to confuse you here, just trying to get on the same page.
