    Replying quickly to art as I'm busy tonight.
    Quote from Artifice 101

    @mystery meat': Why am I "pretty" scummy? I want your explanation on record.
    Because i think your points are mostly bull****. You're tunnel visioning hard, which doesn't make it as scummy as it could be.


    Why the repetition here?
    ?? Your case, and your second wall of text? Not sure what you mean.


    That doesn't make me wrong.
    Not necessarily, but it makes you more likely to think yourself right when you aren't.
    Again, I'll consider this. It seems the wagons at the moment are settling between TIM and Wheat.


    Please explain why this is a fair point, aimed at a newb player (this is Void's first large game), given the conversation I reposted between Burst and Void?
    In general, smileys can be used to "offset", or handwave away things you don't really want to be scrutinized. It can be a sign of nervousness as well. Going even further, it can be used as a replacement for actual words, which gives less things to scrutinize.

    In the actual post of void's; it could be read that he doesn't want people to look into the original point, and is placating them with the smiley.


    You're saying this seemed like a town tell, right?
    yes.
    How many games with TIM have you played?
    2 or 3? I remember him being pretty articulate, and that usually means careful posting if that's what you're driving at.




    As for burst, maybe I just associated girlavatar + alot of spammy talking + seemingly airheadness for girl.

    I completely mangled my sentence on burst as I copy+pasted part of the sentence but forgot to finish the rest. Also I remembered Artifice's point on TIM being self-concious in his posts is bull**** because some people are just careful with their posts.

    So what I meant to say about burst:

    Didn't like the vote on TIM, not much reasoning in it, and also didn't even read Art's case. However the fact that she (?) dumbly claimed her race evens that out.

    unvote.

    So why are people voting TIM again? His smiley point is perfectly valid. The case on him was complete bogus and Artifice is pretty scummy. Case is pretty bad, and his second wall of text wasn't much better.


    Some tidbits from earlier.

    Vote Zajnet because lynching the mod is fun


    Am I sensing a posting restriction?

    Don't like this for PR fishing.

    Quote from Artifice 101
    @Everyone: Save me the trouble of wiki'ing this, and tell me: is there a flavorful reason a player would have this post restriction? Also, on a scale of 1-10, ten being I play "professionally," how familiar is everyone with the flavor? I'll go first. I'm a 1, in that I know only what I've learned from the sign-ups.

    I take it you don't have a theory?



    @zinda: Is Aiur a game reference? If not,...?

    That was an awesome Magic advert' campaign. But what does it have to do with the game at hand? Please be as specific as you can. Thanks.

    Agreed.
    Don't like this for more PR fishing.

    Quote from Wheat_Grinder
    How serious are you about this proposition?
    Pretty bad. Others have commented, but it was obvious he was joking, and this sort of question paints you as oppurtunistic: either to wagon on a dumb comment or to actually try and get a wagon going on one of the other 2 (yanni/burst IIRC).

    Quote from Brinatoo

    Thank you for this. I also wanted an encapsulated version from someone knowledgeable Town Points for Archonoid!
    what's so town about that?

    Quote from Artifice 101
    Ok.

    Vote TheIceMan

    I've been scum hunting, while exploring the game. I think I found one. Your posts sound forced. Lets lynch you.
    u srs?

    Yah I guess he was.

    Quote from Artifice 101
    Every. Single. Post. In. This. Exchange. Had. An. Emoticon/Smilie. Why would "" be more scummy than "" ?? No thanks. This post reads like throwing spaghetti up against the wall to see if it sticks.

    Also it helps that Void was my mentor recently and he's purely town in this game. He's genuine, sincere, and realistic. If he were scum it would be patently obvious to me. He's town. Deal.
    Pretty egotistical of you.



    Personally I like W_G as scum - the question he posted to heartwork + that fence sitting between artifice/tim was pretty scummy. His forcefulness towards TIM seems fake to me, maybe to make his decision between artifice/tim more legit (it isn't). vote: W_G

    TIM might or might not be scum, but he sure as hell isn't for the "case" on him right now. Artifice seems really tunnel-visioned. Most of his points are rather... weaksauce (in fact the entire first PBPA is rather weak) - the omgus is pretty bad, that underlined "you're scum. period" thing.. I disagree with his analysis of TIM's reaction; it seems genuinely honest anger as the points on him at that point were all bull****, whereas the small smiley accusation he leveled was a fair point.

    Don't like Burst's vote on TIM (didn't read the case either ?????) though I guess she (?) makes up for it with that race claim seemed completely out there.

    I don't softclaim ever on day 1. I don't see a point, on the front page there's a sample town PM anyways IIRC (firebat?). Prob 7-8/10 for SC knowledge (played SCBW alot), though I really see no point in this information.

    ah feels good to play mafia again.

    Quote from Audinho
    In Sc each rase had an "easy" tier 2 unit that could hit both air and ground: Goliath, Hydralisk and Dragoon. At least at my beginning days as a sc-player I loved just amassing those units, as that didn't require much choosing. (note that hydras were tier 2, the roaches of sc if you like).

    This brings back so many memories Smile

    hydras are tier 2?

    gimme a few minutes so that I can tell all the poor protoss I ever 3-hatched that they couldn't even defend against a tier-2 rush. mm yeah protoss tears.


    Quote from GigaRage
    Wait, I'm only know SC2, but ain't the dragoon just an immortal cut in half and just keeping the legs?

    I hope SC1 at least had Thor's... AND TACTICAL NUKES! Those nukes are so OP. It took out my marine.

    in BW you had a 125 mineral unit that was faster than any other ground unit, could 2 shot workers, AND had 3 nukes installed after getting an upgrade

    YEAH I MAD

    all abilities should only go through if you manage to win a game of SC against the target.

    Quote from Wrath_of_DoG
    This game looks epic, despite the fact that it isn't based around the intensely frightening game Amnesia.

    I am so /in, though for the next few days my time will be spent mostly reading A Dance with Dragons.

    My favourite mafia memory is when

    Currently I'm in two games, though I suspect that will go down to 1 soon.

    My favourite mafia memory would be (as a roleblocker in Persona Mafia) WIFOMing Andelijah and MMoD into making a bad nightkill Smile

    Oh god persona. You've reminded me that I bruised my forehead facepalming that game.


    /in

    Favourite memory is probably Magic Mafia hahahahahaha. Chamber, what a riot.

    Hey, just want to apologize because I need to be replaced.

    It's my last term at uni and it's almost exam time so I'm pretty busy doing assignments and projects - I underestimated the courses I took. I want to keep up and keep playing (especially considering how Amistaria 1 went), but it's really hard, and it's not fair to anyone else.

    Hopefully I'll see you guys in 3-4 months when I'll have time to play mafia again.

Game was fun, concept cool, and I'm sad I'll be missing out on the rest, but I want to keep my marks up until to the end, and I haven't and can't do the rest of you justice if I stay in the game.

    Hopefully I'll see you guys in 3-4 months when I'll have time to play mafia again.

    It's my last term at uni and it's almost exam time so I'm pretty busy doing assignments and projects - I underestimated the courses I took. The game had a really fun concept but I can't put time into it with the way life is going right now.

    Hopefully I'll see you guys in 3-4 months when I'll have time to play mafia again.

    BTW I attacked DRey but it failed.
