A Tale of Middle Earth: Game OVER

Due to my claim, there will be a number of guilty people who end up voting for me today to save Verbal.

 

Especially if I were to be protected at night by a doctor, I will pose a significant threat to all scums in the game.

 

That all being said, people rely too much on village power role claims- if you make the lynch competitive and I do swing, it will be more informative than a scanning power ever would be.

I hate seers and I hate metagaming. I could have used the power on people I know, but that's distasteful to me.

 

Random.org is the fairest way to handle N1 seer actions. I wouldn't get another scan until N4, and I doubt I live that long.

Granted I do believe what you say regarding seers because I think I remember seeing that from you quoted somewhere in the Champs game.

@Verb, no I was saying before this I was too-ing and fr-oing between town and mafia of you, in this, at the moment I see it as you trying to get a claim from a possible PR, so if you go doen anyway you can give team mates some good info at the same time. But I'm not voting on that alone, I want to have a good look at both of you before I decide. 

 

@AJ - haven't said anything about Tina, accept she was the one pushing, doesn't mean anything on it's own. 

 

Kind of far-fetched for scum!Verb to do, or anybody really, but I get your point.

You could've peeked your scum reads, too.

 

It's not how I play seer on N1. I prefer to play without a seer but there's little I can do about being one.

 

I'd avoid using the power given I have options, but it makes no sense at all:

 

Protection is far more useful later in the game, and I wouldn't roleblock N1 because it's vastly more likely to block a village power than a scum one that early.

 

I used random.org on the seer check because I didn't care what the result would be and I wanted to save the more useful powers for N2 onward.

I have an array of abilities which I can use at night, the first night I used a 2x scanning power on Thane and Krak, which is why I am defending them.

 

I can also do a 2x protect power, which I can use, or a 2x roleblock power. At the end of using those on three nights, I can return to using the scan, or any power that I did not use the previous night.

 

I do not have a red scan on Verbal, to be honest. I was saying that I did for reactions.

 

If I said that I did have a red scan on Verbal, I could get him lynched today, and people would follow me. Sorry, I don't, and if I were to try to be a hero and get Verbal lynched based on such a lie, and he were to be a villager, I'd have to be the lynch the next day.

 

There were better choices for the gladiator challenge, but I understand using it against someone on your own wagon.

If this can be corroborated somehow, I'll vote myself in this glad challenge and know that it was a pro-town move.

 

That said, I'm having trouble believing such a role is in this game.  It seems a little.....much.

Why do you believe you are better for the town dead, that anything a scan could give (other than you might not make night 4). I see two protect roles and two blocker roles quite useful. Can you not protect yourself? (although this is null question if there is a roleblocker out there)

Really? If that role was a scum role, I would have thought that that would have been a good use if it. It's the way my mind works

That's what you said about Yates 1.0...

Also - he's claiming JOAT. The only thing weird is having two shots per night. And that gives me pause.

Granted I do believe what you say regarding seers because I think I remember seeing that from you quoted somewhere in the Champs game.

 

When I played on my native site, there were like 4 games in a row I was peeked N1, and finally there was a game where I was peeked N1 by the scum, neutral, and town cop.

 

I grow weary of playing in games with Cops. I have to because they exist. But people use them to metagame, which is to play against the player, not play the game.

 

I despise cops. My policy is to randomize any N1 scan, never ever ever ever would I use a scan based on my own biases or suspicions on night one. It's despicable to me because everyone uses cops as a crutch. I prefer hunting scums on my own merits.

I don't see how it can be corroborated today.

 

I want you to vote for me even if you believe my claim.

 

Again, this goes to my theory on village powers- we rely on them too much. I want to see the vote record.

 

Use the vote record, don't just lynch based on claims. Anyone can fake a claim. I could be faking my claim, I could be vanilla townie.

 

See where people stand. Do not self-vote.

I call it cowardly. But people do what they do and people are free to play the role legally if they choose to do so. It's not their fault game designers put them in their games.

 

I just hate N1 scans- you only get one chance to silence the cop before you're outed. And if he's protected, it's all over.

Damn, I'm sorta stuck now.

 

If true that's like the most OP JOAT I've ever heard of.

 

Maybe I'm guilty, or attempting to draw the murder.

 

This shouldn't be that hard a decision, Verbal's claim has basically already been corroborated by his action.

 

If you think I'm guilty or lying, you should probably lynch me, especially since I think you're guilty.

Posted

If I'm not lying, then we'll find that out when I flip, and at that point, it will be the case that some shook wolves will be pretty much outed, especially if the wagons are close.

I'm not going to let your read on me effect my decision, but I appreciate you trying to bait me into it because of your read on me :wink:
