Also AI: Kill flavor: I shoot the target with my gun and freeze them, thus removing them from the dragon army. I have no idea what the flavor of this game actually is so who knows how that fits in with it.
So how do you feel about ganderin_dan? Scummy? Not so scummy? Don't care?
Specify which phrase, answer my question that statement implied (you agree/disagree that kpaca's claim [that he willingly volunteered, mind you] contradicts your point on the matter), and no, I don't.
Huh?
Look. kpaca's statement, if true, does not a set-up make. Do you really want me to explain the grip of things I learned from your question, and the grip of things that a mass claim at this juncture would all accomplish? Hint: All bad because of more information in the thread.
How much information should I reveal about my own role PM to answer your question? How much should everyone else?
I'm saying we should button it. Period. Scum learn things, power roles get dead, games get harder to win. No. Thank. You.
I think that if we put the most powerful commander ability in that position, without revealing our base protective roles, we stand to maximize that ability for the town's benefit.
Without revealing more about your role, elaborate on this? The language lost me.
You must suck at this game, then. Assuming one or both of you are sincere, I learned much more than I wanted to from his question coupled with your claim. Just like I learned a grip about zinda from his one post. So either gan_dan's scum leading us on, or he's town being dumb. Pick one.
Then why are you asking kpaca (your nemesis in this sub-forum) for flavor to confirm his truthfulness?
Gaming the mod is awesome.
Not a 1-10, but I'll assume this is a 9.
That said, no one should do it but me or possibly k-pain because we're familiar with Guard-san games.
Are you saying I can't do some reading and presume a few things about human nature?
Look here. It's really quite simple. There is no SK.
Why not?No other win con's, gotcha.
If kpaca can demonstrate a kill, he is either vig or mafia with a bonus kill. I am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and assume the former. And this is kpaca, so he is obviously telling the truth. He never bluffs about this sort of thing, ever. So someone is dying N2. And it should be ganderin_dan. Because he is scum. Any questions?
Yes. Are you scum trying to manipulate kpaca into not shooting you? Because last I checked, trying to direct PR's was a bad idea.

My claim idea, Art, would have nothing to do with one's current abilities. Just abilities gained when becoming commander. I don't feel like this is likely to out a protective role.

There's a difference between getting flavor to get it and trying to extrapolate a player's alignment from it. If you get my drift, this line of questioning is over. If not, tough.

Who said anything about protective roles? Man, your conscience must be guilty.
Un-revealed protective role would be somewhat necessary to keep our intended commander from dying.
But almost.
And this is assuming that the Commander needs to live, why? There will always be a Commander; we just have to make sure that the second-highest vote-getter is also town.
Uh-oh, I just realized how similar this Commander voting mechanic is to Hetalia Mafia's CC votes...good thing this is a mini, so we can just kill all the scum before their superior voting coordination matters.
Why would we NOT want to keep an elected PR alive? That a serious question?
(this is also the part where I admit the protective role thing was partially a slip from my epicmafia re-endeavors as a result of dying early in Flame Warriors, and waiting for this game to fire)

@Mod: will we be told who was voted the commander every Day? If so, and the voted player was NK'd, will the replacement be revealed?
I await my answer, but for the moment I think you're playing Rubik's Cube when you should be playing Mafia.
Also, the votes are secret (sent by PM at night). We can discuss it in thread all we want, but the scum vote, too. The results of Commander roles and NK's are going to be WIFOM factories.

Who is elected commander will be revealed at the beginning of each day. If the voted player is nightkilled it won't be revealed that he was going to be the commander. You will only know that the runner-up is the new commander.
I could see g_d as scum. He's a little too twitchy for a townie this early in the game. Art is giving me bad vibes too.
I don't think I'll be doing any of this voting Nai or electing the vig as commander stuff. I don't like vigs. Vigs in minis are even worse.
I would like to learn why Nai is scum two days and two posts into the game. Not that it's impossible - him being the main character and starting the game as commander does not preclude him from being scum by any means - but I don't think there's any sort of evidence yet.
I guess I'll unvote my random vote. Unvote. Please join us soon, absentees.
It's cool, bro. Maf won't kill me. Too polarizing too early, and obvscum proposing the massclaim, amirite AI?
Yup.
In all seriousness, if you were town you would not wave your role around like an erect *****, hoping it will save you from getting lynched or vigged. Ergo, scum.
I don't think I'll be doing any of this voting Nai or electing the vig as commander stuff. I don't like vigs. Vigs in minis are even worse.
/barn in regards to making kpaca a commander, as far as i can tell the size of this setup makes the vig a role incredibly swingy and can lead to a quick loss for us, im happy to have his imput but hell no i don't want him shooting.
Art is playing his usual town game which is funny since that usually means at some point im gonna start shouting Latin at him.
I don't have enough experience with kpaca but he is the guy who completely swindled the town into giving him a win as the lyncher in the last mini i saw so im incredibly weary on what he says.
don't know what to say about dan, the amount of attention he is attracting seems contradicting to what i would expect scum to be doing but i haven't played with him before so that is making me take pause.
unvote, i cannot believe i actually killed the RVS 6 posts in, that feels awesome

I'm not sure you understand how games with claimed vigs work. They generally are used as second lynches. Now, kpaca is too cool to listen to the rest of us, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to discuss the usage of the shot anyway.

Epic fence-sit is epic.
Sadly, I'm pretty sure all we've done is establish that Sepiriel is town.
Normally opposed to massclaims, but would massclaiming Commander-activated abilities be something worth considering here?
I clearly can see why he was first accused. What I don't get, is : Why all this tunnelvisioning afterwards? AI just kept saying "You are scum" and this led to some sheeping (Wheat_Grinder I'm staring at you.) . Okay, where do we go from here, we lynch him in a huge amount of Panurge effect, following the followers? That the best way to limit the clues and informations we can get from the first day.

What is the Panurge effect? But if you have a read that tells you he's town, yea, I'd wanna know that.
I'm not sure you understand how games with claimed vigs work. They generally are used as second lynches. Now, kpaca is too cool to listen to the rest of us, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to discuss the usage of the shot anyway.
My problem is that kpaca IS TOO COOL TO LISTEN TO ANY OF US, that means that should he be made commander and we ask him not to shoot he may as well say 'heck' and still shoot, and while that may not be a big problem during the next night or two i would rather have the game be vigless and last a little longer with possibly more assurance of a town win than last shorter and perhaps (most likely in my views) snowball into a scum win, as of right now i see no sign this group is united (i mainly blame our current commander for this, no charisma at all :D, yes that was a underhanded 'vote me for commander' plea, im just awesome).
This is an underhanded way of calling him town without actually calling him town.
Oh no underhandedness there, im saying as of right now he is playing to what i believe to be his town game, it is also fact that every time he and i have played with him as town we have ended up shouting at each other in latin which i find amusing.
I fail to see how his play as a neutral in another game is relevant to his play in this game, which has no neutrals.
I am not talking about alignment here but rather about skill, craftiness and overall avatar sexiness, kpaca is a known evil mastermind and as such i am saying i will thread carefully when dealing with him as im sure he has an agenda regardless of alignment.
Epic fence-sit is epic.
I rather look at it as statement of facts as well as my personal standing as of this point but i suppose your explanation might tickle some other player's funny bones better than mine so have at it.
Sadly, I'm pretty sure all we've done is establish that Sepiriel is town.
Aww shucks you guys know me so well im blushing

Ah crap it's happening again. It's gotta be a new record this time.
As far as any other content, right now I have g_d as scum for those terribly scummy posts, am beginning to be of the opinion that kpaca is leaning town. Lastly, I don't like AI's post on voting me in exchange for kpaca vigging g_d. It does not sit right with me, and not just because the vote's pointed at me.

It ends up pretty well for scum if you're both town...which you're not.
In French, reference to Panurge occurs in the phrase "Mouton de Panurge" (Sheep of Panurge) , which describes an individual that will blindly follow others regardless of the consequences. This, after a story in which Panurge buys a sheep from the merchant Dindenault and then, as a revenge for being overcharged, throws the sheep into the sea. The rest of the sheep in the herd follow the first over the side of the boat, in spite of the best efforts of the shepherd.
"Suddenly, I do not know how, it happened, I did not have time to think, Panurge, without another word, threw his sheep, crying and bleating, into the sea. All the other sheep, crying and bleating in the same intonation, started to throw themselves in the sea after it, all in a line. The herd was such that once one jumped, so jumped its companions. It was not possible to stop them, as you know, with sheep, it's natural to always follow the first one, wherever it may go" --Francois Rabelais, Pantagruel, Book IV, chapter VIII
This effect of mass-following is what we call "Panurge effect"
I'm amused that [Shalako], of all people, are talking about terrible reasoning. "Hey, PF's RVS daykill must be serious, therefore I should shoot him to prove that I have a daykill!"
What confuses me is that kpaca has been acting in a completely different direction until that vote.
I mean, it's understandable that he finds W_G scummy, but it doesn't match with kpaca's previous behaviour.
Art is playing his usual town game which is funny since that usually means at some point im gonna start shouting Latin at him.
Likely. Which is why I'll beat you to it.
For example, to kpaca: "Merda taurorum animas conturbit." (I'll let you figure it out yourself, slick.)
And to AI: "Ridentem dicere verum quid vetat." (Roughly, "Why so serious?")
And to you, Sep: "Vescere bracis meis." (I didn't know Bart Simpson spoke Latin :))
I don't have enough experience with kpaca but he is the guy who completely swindled the town into giving him a win as the lyncher in the last mini i saw so im incredibly weary on what he says.
Agreed, although much more generally, because its kpaca. There are no neutrals in this game.
Do I need to tell you how awful this vote is, or should I let you do it?
Huh?
Fortunately, I'm not worried about the "massive amounts of WIFOM" that will be generated from the commander votes. I have no intentions of being lynched or vigged.

I have something for you to "work on", too. But I can't say it without getting in trouble. Why don't you go do a Huck' Finn impression and paint a fence or something.
You're already useless in this game. zinda pointed that out. If you're telling the truth as AsianI seems to believe, you're too "cool" (read: stubborn and antisocial/uncooperative) to vig who the town finds scummy as a majority. The irony of the fact everyone says your lack of team play is what will make you a bad Commander vote is priceless given the bolded in the above paragraph.
Quoting Wiki : This effect of mass-following is what we call "Panurge effect"
Hi Flew. *waves* Nice to meet you. I'm Arti', and I'm not as dumb as kpain would have you believe. Thanks for the "learned something new today" moment. I'll remember it as a variant of the "Pied Piper of Hamelin" or the "Golden Goose" story (not to be confused with "The Goose that Laid the Golden Egg"). Interesting.

His vote on me was just a straight barn of AI. Blanket statement that all my posts are scummy without any previous skepticism/doubt, doesn't give any actual reasoning as to why, and tosses in some fencesitting filler for good measure.
You could've filled those blanks in on your own if you felt so inclined. Why you chose to have me say it, after two other people said it, confuses me. Care to explain?

I chose to ask you what you meant because the wording was odd, the point of which was to determine why you wanted to make Wheat explain his own vote. In doing so I wanted to understand what your motivation was, scummy or townie. I'm not seeing townie, now.

The back and forth right now doesn't seem to have a lot behind it. I agree with Artifice, it makes me think nothing but 'huh?' I can't see where people are coming from.
I am a little concerned about Kpaca's 'I can prove Nai is scum, and I'll tell you why! But, no, I won't.' Then he follows up rapidly with 'I'm going to vote for someone else entirely, even though I could prove Nai is scum after he only posted once'. I'm also not happy with the bid for commander-dom with the campaign plank of 'I can kill people if you do'.
I'm also amused with G_D's "I want to hear more from Nai" statements, two within twelve hours. Within five posts of each other. If you weren't aware, I tend to only get in one or two posts a day due to work an familial concerns. More, sometimes, when I'm on at the same time as someone else. It takes so much time to respond to everything.
So how do you feel about ganderin_dan? Scummy? Not so scummy? Don't care?
I'm in the library.
Don't care, he seems like the type of player who works themselves out, so I'm sure he'll either implode or compose himself within 48 hours.
Look. kpaca's statement, if true, does not a set-up make. Do you really want me to explain the grip of things I learned from your question, and the grip of things that a mass claim at this juncture would all accomplish? Hint: All bad because of more information in the thread.
How much information should I reveal about my own role PM to answer your question? How much should everyone else?

What do we have there ? Almost no random phase (Curse you guys, I was hoping I could run in the game spamming and joking around.)

What I don't get, is : Why all this tunnelvisioning afterwards? AI just kept saying "You are scum" and this led to some sheeping (Wheat_Grinder I'm staring at you.) .

Last time I directed the vig into shooting someone, I was indeed scum .
This, sir, is rational reasoning, and that's why I currently am willing to vote Zindabad as commander for the next day.

Oh no underhandedness there, im saying as of right now he is playing to what i believe to be his town game, it is also fact that every time he and i have played with him as town we have ended up shouting at each other in latin which i find amusing.
I am not talking about alignment here but rather about skill, craftiness and overall avatar sexiness, kpaca is a known evil mastermind and as such i am saying i will thread carefully when dealing with him as im sure he has an agenda regardless of alignment.
I rather look at it as statement of facts as well as my personal standing as of this point but i suppose your explanation might tickle some other player's funny bones better than mine so have at it.
Aww shucks you guys know me so well im blushing
I thought you were just deflecting. But if Wheat_Grinder flips scum, it looks good for you.
Sepiriel now has wiggle room if Artifice 101 flips scum. EWP: Less likely now that he's restated his read.
@Sep: kpaca is town. 90% sure.
Lack of content is due to this thread being up for very little time so far and me having trouble posting content early game, every game.
Uh oh.
Ah crap it's happening again. It's gotta be a new record this time.
As far as any other content, right now I have g_d as scum for those terribly scummy posts, am beginning to be of the opinion that kpaca is leaning town. Lastly, I don't like AI's post on voting me in exchange for kpaca vigging g_d. It does not sit right with me, and not just because the vote's pointed at me.
It ends up pretty well for scum if you're both town...which you're not.
Then you have exactly the answer I give to your question.
Quoting Wiki : This effect of mass-following is what we call "Panurge effect"
[The Family] pressed the "lynch" button, thinking it was labeled "lunch" .
12-11? I'm losing track
Well, you are certainly wrong with whatever sort of logic leap you are undoubtably making.
This is the worst answer to a question of all time. "My answer is your answer!"
@AI less likely that Art flips town, or less likely that Sep has some room to play with re:town perspectives
Flew, what confuses you about Kpaca's vote? Doesn't strike me as anything besides the obvious.
I mean, it's understandable that he finds W_G scummy, but it doesn't match with kpaca's previous behaviour.
[The Family] pressed the "lynch" button, thinking it was labeled "lunch" .
For example, to kpaca: "Merda taurorum animas conturbit." (I'll let you figure it out yourself, slick.)
And to AI: "Ridentem dicere verum quid vetat." (Roughly, "Why so serious?")
And to you, Sep: "Vescere bracis meis." (I didn't know Bart Simpson spoke Latin :))
Agreed, although much more generally, because its kpaca. There are no neutrals in this game.
Huh?
...uh ok?
Oh snap!
Why are you channeling Seppel? (Serious question)
I have something for you to "work on", too. But I can't say it without getting in trouble. Why don't you go do a Huck' Finn impression and paint a fence or something.
You're already useless in this game. zinda pointed that out. If you're telling the truth as AsianI seems to believe, you're too "cool" (read: stubborn and antisocial/uncooperative) to vig who the town finds scummy as a majority. The irony of the fact everyone says your lack of team play is what will make you a bad Commander vote is priceless given the bolded in the above paragraph.
Which would be?
Hi Flew. *waves* Nice to meet you. I'm Arti', and I'm not as dumb as kpain would have you believe. Thanks for the "learned something new today" moment. I'll remember it as a variant of the "Pied Piper of Hamelin" or the "Golden Goose" story (not to be confused with "The Goose that Laid the Golden Egg"). Interesting.

The latter. I don't understand how the former is even a possibility unless you think (I think?) they're linked somehow.
Hey, that's my line.
I think Seppel is a pretty cool guy. eh lynches sucms and doesn’t afraid of anything…
You are both town, so you should stop bickering and get back to scum-hunting.
What.
Do you have a question for me? I would like your query to AI answered, however.
Thus my asking. I don't think the former is possible.
I wanna hear more out of Nai.
Huh? As in: how the what the huh? This whole exchange makes no sense, and specifically the wording of your last line. Why are you asking the guy voting for you to explain why his own vote is bad?

You could've filled those blanks in on your own if you felt so inclined. Why you chose to have me say it, after two other people said it, confuses me. Care to explain?
I chose to ask you what you meant because the wording was odd, the point of which was to determine why you wanted to make Wheat explain his own vote. In doing so I wanted to understand what your motivation was, scummy or townie. I'm not seeing townie, now.
Vote gan_dan

I am a little concerned about Kpaca's 'I can prove Nai is scum, and I'll tell you why! But, no, I won't.' Then he follows up rapidly with 'I'm going to vote for someone else entirely, even though I could prove Nai is scum after he only posted once'. I'm also not happy with the bid for commander-dom with the campaign plank of 'I can kill people if you do'.
I'm also amused with G_D's "I want to hear more from Nai" statements, two within twelve hours. Within five posts of each other. If you weren't aware, I tend to only get in one or two posts a day due to work an familial concerns. More, sometimes, when I'm on at the same time as someone else. It takes so much time to respond to everything.
