Board 8 > Mercenaries 4 Topic 6: Dante Solos Edition

(+) Yeah! (+)

Tom being a "mediocre player who kept signing up" sounds like m3 flavor more than m4 flavor. Given Kanzaris is on the scumteam and played in m3 I'm kinda suspicious of that one.

Also don't really like Ark cause pjbasis being in two but maybe all the vanillas are the turbo fodders as a theme-- do we have any other claimed vanillas or just these two + Death?
---

Corrik absolutely does go all in on people without having anything concrete, as scum or town. It's why I respect his play and it seems he's toned it down a bit too, or perhaps people have just grown more used to him.

Maybe he's toned it down to the point where people have started believing him? If so he's finally cracked it and is probably the best player we have. (Not a joke)

TheArkOfTurus, TOWN Vanilla

Solo shoto, tries recovering PJs team dealt green a loss

Ok so imo based on flavor, I think IGCD and Pj are the same team.

I remember someone (Lopen?) saying Pj was barely in Mercs, so for him to be a role AND referenced seems like no mistake.

Or maybe Gravy just loves that Peej.

Or Death could be scum fake claiming.

How awesome would be to have actually had a scum/scum/scum lynch on day 2 lol.

I'm Nilla. KommunistKoala at your service. my claims on t'other page.

My favorite corrik moment was when he fake claimed a track on scum Death and he completely cracked

Sorry death
---

Okay well I guess I'm not familiar enough with Corrik's play. Honestly trdl did legit make sense to me as a cop which also factored in. He was pretty much the only guy in mercs to show scruples, choosing to forfeit an elimination match because he thought there were shady circumstances behind a win he had.

My favourite Scum Death moment was when Chris voted him in GOT1 and Death basically went "but whyyyyyyyyy?" and I was like why do you care and voted him for cracking under a single votes worth of pressure, then he claimed Tyrion as a vig and FD was dayvig and countered him in style.
---

we killed two scum on day 1, was beautiful. Perfect town game.

Waiting on Jaded's gonna stagnate the day, ugh.
---

I know, right?

I'm finally free to be active and this happens
---

Hmmmm guess we can try and piece together who number 4 and potentially 5 is. The problem we have here is votals for the game provided Lopen isn't lying or some tom foolery is going on are going to be worthless as we only have one legitimate day of votes to go on.

no my favorite scum moment is still claiming BP and then getting daystabbed
---

damnit Menu

oh well, I will at least always have the one game where I killed everyone to remember
---

Provided it wasn't a triple scum day 2 and I doubt that. I like Scare much less based on votals and play.
---

Goddammit that anecdote isn't a corrik moment!

He it says he kept signing up for the past 10 years, so I think it's more than even that <_<

It's certainly more of a death moment in my mind, but yes it's very indicative of Corrik's playstyle.
---

aside, Mercs doesnt sound like my cup of tea

also yeah Scare, keep forgetting him but he was also vocally against me
hrm

Corriks been pretty apt lately
good for him

If I could ban any role it would be miller. Who thinks miller is a fun concept? Besides pjbasis
---

I'm just saying Tom had a pretty good run in m4.

But Gravy being overly harsh to Tom in flavor wouldn't surprise me to the point where the claim is unbelievable I suppose.
---

I liked being a miller
...
jack
---

Being the uncountered Miller seems like easy mode.
---

Thinking more on Scre yes I know he's just said he's sick but I hadn't seen him mention this previously, if im wrong please point it out.

Is that most players have accepted him as town based on the miller claim, and usually a solidified town Scare would be a much stronger player vocally than he has been throughout, he's just let things play out. I don't think a town Scare with most people backing him shirks the limelight like that. Quite the opposite in fact.

I'm not convinced he's scum at this point, but it's certainly something I need to keep in mind.
---

Hey Lopen why you faking a role

what's your play
---

Oh yeah I also hate everything Scare has said this game. Its just claiming Miller after me.... then again he acted like it was real but didnt vote me. Maybe he knew it was a joke and the act that he thought i was serious was fake..?
---

I quite like being miller as it's basically super powered vanilla when used correctly as you always have that doubt hanging above your head so you've gotta play your balls out to keep afloat.

The miller meta is what killed miller.
---

You guys remember that Ulti Mafia with like 6 millers?
---

I am sorry Johnbobb. If it makes you feel better you had me fooled at least.

I'd like to say your scumplay was good as a result of fooling me, but considering it fooled like no one else that's probably incorrect and it's more a problem with my play.
---

Yes the only solution for every game having a miller is obviously having multiple millers so it's even less skill testing
---

I'm gonna go play Nier for a bit. Will check back later. I'm still in favour of a mass while we have more voices to give their opinions on things.
---

Could someone give me end of day votals and can someone compile the claims list?

Johnbobb as scum is not surprising.
FFD as watcher fits pretty well. I buy it as town (although any claim from Lopen would fit)
I am not sure how I feel about the poisoner claim.

If I felt better I would go back and check out how IGCD reacted to Ben and Death day 1, because I dont recall him doing much with them off the top of my head. At least 1 of Death/IGCD is scum here. I don't buy one team taking two slots in the game.

My gut still does not like Oddity as well, and it doesnt like Tony either.

eaedwards6400 posted...

After I die, I have the ability to poison someone in an aspect that would have me taking someone down with me and this will be confirmed to everyone when I flip. This is considered a twilight ability. So if I am lynched today or I am night killed tonight as long as I am around for the STOP I will have a half hour to decide who I want to poison.

I'd actually like a bit more detail on the poisoner claim. Do you have to say you're going to be vengeful as a night action or do you auto poison whoever kills you no matter how it occurs. Like the phrasing seems to imply you only have half an hour after STOP but that obviously wouldn't make sense for a night kill.
---

Votals are in the new topic
---

Work is finally over

L8r nerds I'll be back when Jaded shows up
---

Or, you know, whatever

With you gone, we just didn't see the point.

Jaded_Eye posted...

Okay...so what I am getting from what everyone else is saying...is that I screwed up by unvoting Death. I unvoted Death because I knew I was going to be gone for a while, Johnbob, another scumspect of mine, jumped on his train, and I knew that put Death pretty high up on votals. Right now, I clearly need to be doing a better job of committing to my reads. So my bad.

I would prefer Death over Johnbob, claim and all, though I'm not counting Johnbob out as scum.

So:

Vote:Death

This Jaded's last post, on D2. Pretty scummy now that we know Johnbobb is scum.
---

@Jaded_Eye where you be?
---

I'm here, going to making dinner so I'll be in and out. IGCD, are you seriously accusing me of not reading the game? Frankly, if you're not scum, I'm offended. Did you see all those stupid blocks I posted as I was rereading? Man, whatever, you're not worth my time.

##Unvote

Don't know what John is at, but I'm good to wait for Jaded. Do you all want me to claim??
---

I think Jaded is overwhelmed Town to be honest. He seems to lack confidence and is unable to commit to his reads. But I'm not seeing scum (depending on whatever Ben has going on here)
---

That's my read, too. But I can understand the flip side of that coin. You live and die by your own actions in mafia.
---

Mzero, I'm pretty convinced you're town now, am I still super scummy to you?
---

I was going to be satisfied with Jaded claiming (and Ben claiming once he had Jaded's info) but if you want to save us from a boring evening feel free Oddity!
---

Aite, it sure ain't gonna help me, but I'm Terastodon Town Vanilla.

He accidentally bought aeris for min, gravy still thinks Shulk loses to Kuja, and it looks like he ticked somebody off and got skewered for it or something like that.

Mzero, I'm pretty convinced you're town now, am I still super scummy to you?

Not sure I ever though you were SUPER scummy, but I was leaning scum

at this point, I feel you're find of following the pack, as you were on all three of the "big" lynches yesterday... and I didn't really feel any conviction from you on any of them. Like you kind of just settled on Johnbobb before leaving and didn't really seem like you wanted to... just that there wasn't a better option.

so basically still leaning scum
---

If we're all claiming I see no reason to space them like that. It should be as many simultaneously claiming as feasible
---

I guess in hindsight that didn't make the evening all that less boring.
---

Nah, I really wanted him to die. I mean, it does no good just to say that, but I genuinely wanted John to die. I was also down with Death until John voted him. Kanz I was having sort of mixed feelings on.
---

Who did he tick off, Oddity?
