I gave and I prefer real interaction when I can get it.

Is anyone else sad Armada retired? He's the only one who could beat Hbox.
---

is that our first wrong topic. I imagine it wont be the last.

Also the more melee players that retire the better.

ok I should be here rest of the night

whats going on

Knew I shouldn't have used that word again.

Anyway, I'm off-kilter a bit because I had a scheduled major nose surgery this morning with this funny gauge and stuff blocking my major major nosebleed after, so yeah, I'm a bit low on blood now.

But on the plus side, I absolutely will be able to post as much as I want tomorrow!

What makes me difficult to talk to? If it's just that you're trying to hold your temper back... Don't? I can take it.

Dangan Ronpa mafia

Its kinda hard to search for on the logs, because Benjamin forgot to add mafia to several topic titles

is that the last one?

That one doesn't count cause I wasn't here.

It has prime scumhan material though
(and me and Scare, but I didnt get a good feel of scumScare back then)

I was town in dangan rompa. I replaced in to pirate's slot

...and you were scum with han so you should know that

Also am not trying to be a red advocate I just really hate votes that have no reasoning with it. And I think if you have played with me before you would already know this. Hence why I want some reasons from ben and sheon though more so sheon ben did give little reasoning

This is a fair point.

It makes me nervous when people jump on my lunch target for no reason

Lunch target hm? Clearly you are either Kirby or Yoshi, who are veterans and thus town. Also dont mind me, just woke up to discover I got the replacement after all and now Im catching up
---

Huh. Timezone, hombad?

EST, just had a headache last night and went to bed early

Okay so two things.

1. Im caught up now and the main things of importance seem to be that Corrik dug a hole for himself (and me) out of frustration for his leaking roof, and there seems to be a red bandwagon based on how he normally plays I think? I dont really understand it myself so Im not joining just yet.

2. I answered Scares questions from the previous topic in the B8 Discord. Know that these answers are from before I got the replacement so try not to read too deeply into them

1- Whats your mafia experience?
-if none how much do you know about the game and its terms

Played frequently in the days of the Brawl board, regularly play it at a convention I go to yearly.

2. Whats your favorite mafia memory?
Ive got two. My favorite online memory is being the bus driver in a game and completely screwing over the mafia. On the first night I swapped the Godfather and their target by complete chance because I swapped the best and worst players in that game, and then on the third night I swapped the target and a mafia again by chance. The next day all I had to do was claim and it was over.
IRL I had a game end in a stalemate. The final three people alive were a town, a mafia, and someone that wins if theyre alive when the mafia wins, overruling their win. So they all wanted to vote someone different.

3. Whats your favorite mafia role?
Bus Driver, due to earlier memory.

4. Whats your favorite smash character or moment if you have one
Character: Kirby
Moment: The Great Invasion
---

Why do you feel like Corrik dug a hole for himself?

Heck, as a replacement, why focus on who you are replacing in for, like, at all?
---

so I dont know what votes are but it looks like theres a murder's row of people who want to lynch red

I dont want to vote because dont know the number but red you need to claim
---

also severe lack of HYPE going on, this game hasnt had much pulse. I wonder if thats due to more newer players playing or something else

expected more going on by now

I may have misread things but it looked to me like people interpreted his aggression as scummy? And because Im taking his place and I think I remember reading a post saying replacements tend to get scrutinized more?
---

So I've been super unreliable so far, but better late than lynched.

My reason for voting Red in the first place is that I felt he spent much of the first topic coasting along and making fluff comments, and only really started getting into it after getting buried in votes.

The reason I think he's scum now is that after getting hit by the vote train he spent a fair amount of time attacking the people voting for him rather than trying to defend himself or be productive.

There's my reasoning, good or bad.
---

Hombad, Scrutinized for their own opinions, possibly! Not the opinions of the one they replaced.

Is that the only reason you don't want to vote?

Do you feel red's lack of argument on votes issue holds any weight?

Do sultan's abject refusal to scrutinize red make you feel worse about sultan, red, or both?
---

yeah because I think I saw like 7 votes on him which seems a bit much

I dont think I need to vote him to get him to claim, but if I have to do so I will
---

Red hasnt stuck out to me negatively yet, but FD and Chris on him rings bells like Chris mentioned, and mason bro ben said red is scum so willing to look there especially since I dont have much of a lead elsewhere

but Han never did respond about his claim business

as for sultan stubborn sultan isnt really alignment indacative. He plays pretty similiarly town and scum honestly.
---

Shonen_Bat posted...

I feel like he only started to make serious attempts to move the game forward once suspicion started being placed on him.

Checks out.

As for the rest...
Let's pretend for a moment you were a daycop and just scanned red town. Of his voters, who do you suspect the most and why?
---

Speaking of votes I just remembered Corrik left one on Geno that I don't agree with myself so I guess I'll

##Unvote
---

Also, what does it mean for a name to be in parentheses like HB is here?

geno [1] - hombad46, (HB)

Stubbornness is hardly the point, but what he's being stubborn about.

I guess it would be Chris in that case, since he's been driving the Red lynch campaign quite a bit.

Could be FD alternately, but it's 1 AM and I'm not skimming over the first topic and a half again to make a case there.
---

Frankly I barely consider fd part of the red train given when his vote was cast and all.

No experience with Chris before this game, right?
---

Lolo_Guru posted...

Only one so far is that Geno was strange enough that I believe hes town
---

Right, I haven't played or followed any B8 Mafia so I'm just going by what I see here mostly.
---

Catching up

Why? Why you putting a vote on red I'd atleast want an explanation for it and your thoughts

Slightly worried about Sultan defending Red indirectly here.

Doopliss has a pretty decent start. About as far removed from his danganronpa-list of three-scumself as he can be. I like it. Though I dont agree with all of his logic.

FD's explanation of his mason reaction I also buy. And he's caught some good points about Shad/Pendragon to poke at.
---

I'm probably putting my phone away for the night momentarily as I have to try to sleep. I'd already be there if I was more comfortable.

You don't have to be sure on anything to throw it out there! Thoughts are great! Questions are great too! Just let whatever grabs you flow through your posts!

In your own words what was strange about him and why does his strangeness lead you to him being town?
---

Oh and just to theorize a little (while I appreciate the trust from doop of course)

I believe that a Town who saw "Veteran" as their only indicator of alignment in their role PM would likely be less open to someone declaring that Veterans aren't Town than scum who have no idea what Town's PMs were like. Death said he was shaken, and that reads Town to me.

I believe scum would probably know about the flavor split anyway. If not due their own flavor, then due to the host warning them. Because thats the fair way to do things.
---

Oh hey it's death!

Haven't been able to be late-night posting with you for... Like, years.
---

Its been that long?
Good to see you then.

benjamin3740 posted...

Sultan hasnt town confirmed himself yet, so he may actually be scum this time.

I dont recall Sultan being this genuine that he always makes himself confirmed town right from the start.
Technically FFnut confirmed himself town for Sultan in the last game and Sultan was a decent Mislynch target for us back then still...

What games were you thinking of Ben?

I'd normally be at work in 4 hours, and that's been the case for the last 2.5 years.

So yeah, this is my first you/me late-night powwow in a long time.

He said that veterans werent Town, and why would scum say something so... scummy?
---

Death I never liked for a multitude of reasons. I could have voted him over a couple things he did. The Geno reactions seemed a bit fake. And it was the last straw to get my vote. I dont think I ever wanted Geno to claim, since I thought he was town after saying he was a villain. I just knew it was freakin inevitable that he'd claim because people can't be calm and let things like that just float around

I do find it curious that you not made mention of that before the Geno stuff. (even if Chris ' silenced' you)
Also that you didnt vote me until Chris basically gave you the okay to do so... since your first reaction to my Geno reaction was not the actual vote.

Eh. Only off-the cuff reason I can think of is sowing misinformation to town.

Quick question, is that ben you're quoting?

But why put so much attention on himself?

Also is Shonen new at all?
