where is jason anyhow?

do i have to press x to @Jason again?

for someone who's about to be lynched, he has oddly few posts

 

[Green Ranger]

Yeah I don't buy that Black is scum.

Vote: Jason

Why Jason? You haven't really mentioned suspicions about him much beyond saying he felt off, and that was when you had the initial random vote on him.

 

[Pink Ranger]

really?

after the bad claim even?

But is it a bad claim? Literally the safest claim someone can make.

How is it any more persuasive than someone saying they are Town?

it's always a bad claim to claim vanilla townie unless it's a mass claim

like it's one of the dumbest things you can do

i know

i did it

i experienced the dumbness first hand

it was baaaaaaaaaaaaad

 

[Bulk]

Yeah I don't buy that Black is scum.

Vote: Jason

Day 1: Votes for Goldar to make it a 3-way tie
Day 2: Votes for Jason and unties the Black-Jason tie.

Hmmm

 

[Black Ranger]

it's always a bad claim to claim vanilla townie unless it's a mass claim

like it's one of the dumbest things you can do

i know

i did it

i experienced the dumbness first hand

it was baaaaaaaaaaaaad

Oh, so that's what you meant by "I speak from experience"

 

[Pink Ranger]

How is it baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad? You can't be counter claimed and later if you want to actually claim PR later you could say you claimed vanilla to avoid night kills.

 

[Rita Repulsa]

Oh, so that's what you meant by "I speak from experience"

duh

i'm RITA FRICKING REPUSLA THE EVILIEST WITCH WHO HAS EVER LIVED

done this song and dance before

we should still lynch trini

 

[Green Ranger]

I do want to point out these posts that happened shortly after each other.

Just waiting till its decided so I can finally jump on it.

Yeah I don't buy that Black is scum.

Vote: Jason

Red makes a post that implies he's waiting for a train to emerge, then votes for Jason with zero previous explanation. Nothing happened in that time gap that would push anyone towards Black so what changed their mind? Both me and Bulk quoted the first post and then Red proceeded not to respond to either of us and then voted, possibly because they realised the first post was bad.

 

[Green Ranger]

*push anyone away from Black

is what that should have been

 

[Rita Repulsa]

How is it baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad? You can't be counter claimed and later if you want to actually claim PR later you could say you claimed vanilla to avoid night kills.

true vanilla want to be night killed tho

it's their goal in life

by claiming vanilla, you're putting yourself in this weird spot where scum won't night kill you and town will always have doubts on you

it puts investigative roles in an odd spot too

 

[Bulk]

Quick note: Looking at people voting for Red I got my hopes up because I saw @Zordon voted for him at some point, and I figured he'd noticed something or called him out for something earlier and I'd have a new scum read... only to have my dreams dashed by the fact that it was another prod vote T_T Zordon pls

 

[Black Ranger]

I don't know what to think about Red. That vote feels scummy to me.

Could have left it with thinking he didn't think I was scum and then waited for a train like he said but instead he voted for Jason

Weird to me.

 

[Bulk]

town will always have doubts on you

Eh, how many doubts though? Honestly it's not that hard for me to understand where Pink's going with her posts.

 

[Bulk]

Trini voters: Consider red as an alternative? I don't think Trini's happening today.

 

[Rita Repulsa]

Trini voters: Consider red as an alternative? I don't think Trini's happening today.

i'm considering it

i don't like the jason vote because i think if he were scum he'd be here a bit more

 

[Black Ranger]

Vote: Red Ranger

Billy hasn't shown up again and with only an hour left to go, screw it. They will be warned or replaced if their activity keeps up since they are currently under the post count.

 

[Red Ranger]

Unless I'm reading this wrong, I think Black already called the "so obviously scum must not be scum" position. Would rather not have 2 playing the same game.

Both me and Bulk quoted the first post and then Red proceeded not to respond to either of us and then voted, possibly because they realised the first post was bad.

Just more snark directed at Alpha 5.

 

[Green Ranger]

Just more snark directed at Alpha 5.

Why did you vote for Jason then?

 

[Alpha 5]

Just got back from lunch, will be here til the end.

 

[Bulk]

Just more snark directed at Alpha 5.

And voting for Jason was the non-snark reaction to Alpha-5 calling you out?

 

[Zack]

VOTE: Red Ranger

 

[Red Ranger]

I've tried reading a little of day one but all it looks like is a whole bunch of nothing.
Just a lot of tunneling and omgus.

I don't think Black is scum, and I definitely think there is scum being inactive.

Hmm, okay. Who do you think is the most likely inactive Scum?

 

[Rita Repulsa]

vote: red ranger

think jason and black are both town

and others jumped

so no regrets

lets do this

trini dies on day 3 tho

 

[Alpha 5]

I am tempted to swing my vote over to Red. I was suspicious earlier, and I don't like his tendency to save a vote for the last minute to make specific lynchs happen.

I was okay with the Trini vs Jason showdown since it might resolve some questions, but if I can catch one of my big scum reads I'll go for it.

Vote: Red Ranger

 

[Rita Repulsa]

defend yourself @Red Ranger

for all the good it'll do you

 

[Red Ranger]

‘It’s Morphin’ Time!’

Vote: Alpha 5

 

[Red Ranger]

Have fun.

 

[Green Ranger]

Is that a override or a double vote?

 

[Zack]

Oooh

Is this something

 

[Bulk]

What happens now

 

[Rita Repulsa]

‘It’s Morphin’ Time!’

Vote: Alpha 5

i'm gonna assume that's not a command until the gamerunners say otherwise because it's in a red identical to the highlight

and if it's not a command i think you should get in trouble for trying to mask it with the red color

 

[Black Ranger]

Okay so I guess he has given up

Red, if you're town. Who do you think we should look at D3?

 

[Alpha 5]

Hold on, what?

 

[Red Ranger]

Also Rita, I'm glad you can tunnel Trini another day.

 

[Bulk]

I wanted something cool to happen :( if it's nothing I'm voting you out of disappointment

 

[Zack]

Out of the two who backed off the Finster train of love into the Goldar train of failure, Zyaaaaaa would probably look at Yellow first... but hey, this works too

 

[Zack]

Wait, it'sfuckingnothing.gif?

 

[Pink Ranger]

i'm gonna assume that's not a command until the gamerunners say otherwise because it's in a red identical to the highlight

and if it's not a command i think you should get in trouble for trying to mask it with the red color

Yeah. If it is an override then why also vote?

 

[Zordon]

What the hell? Let me catch up.

 

[Bulk]

Ok then. I was going to say I was at a crossroads about whether to vote for Jason who I've been tunneling for 2 days or Red Ranger who I legitimately think just made a pretty terrible move but assuming he just bluffed some inexisting action my mind is made up.

 

[Alpha 5]

I am terribly confused right now.

 

[Kimberly]

This isn't a thing, right?

Surely not on Day 2

 

[Pink Ranger]

This isn't a thing, right?

Surely not on Day 2

I've seen Day 2 overrides before.

Melon started it buuuuut

Please Standby

 

[Zack]

Well, that could've been really useful down the line

UNVOTE

 

[Skull]

Can’t keep up right now, but can we please focus on the D1 vote candidates? What the hell just happened with that sudden push on Red?

 

[Blue Ranger]

They're just that. It mostly feels like after those initial posts about Goldar and Trini you've been mostly inserting yourself in the conversation rather than actively participating. Maybe my perception was a bit colored by your umprompted reply to Rita (who wasn't talking to you) which I saw as a way justify your vote, and the followup on how Goldar had put in more effort not to get lynched, which I saw as a bit of a backpedal.

I don't understand...is there an inconsistency between Goldar acting erratic and making an effort not be lynched? They seem alright to me.

 

[Black Ranger]

Melon started it buuuuut

Please Standby

Oh shiiiit

 

[Zordon]

maybe Pink Ranger.

So do you think you could explain this or is it just going to sit there?

But is it a bad claim? Literally the safest claim someone can make.

How is it any more persuasive than someone saying they are Town?

It's a great way to try to get out of a lynch without revealing anything. I don't agree with Rita here.

Quick note: Looking at people voting for Red I got my hopes up because I saw @Zordon voted for him at some point, and I figured he'd noticed something or called him out for something earlier and I'd have a new scum read... only to have my dreams dashed by the fact that it was another prod vote T_T Zordon pls

I never voted for Red Ranger, what are you talking about? Not today, not last phase.

But wow, an identity/alignment reveal.

 

[Red Ranger]

well that was scary

 

[Blue Ranger]

Can’t keep up right now, but can we please focus on the D1 vote candidates? What the hell just happened with that sudden push on Red?

Happened ridiculously fast, so I dunno.

 

[Bulk]

I don't understand...is there an inconsistency between Goldar acting erratic and making an effort not be lynched? They seem alright to me.

I saw it as you potentially (1) justifying your vote on Goldar and (2) immediatey jumping after Trini without much prompting, which I saw as something scum, having voted for Goldar, would want to do.

 

[Pink Ranger]

Melon started it buuuuut

Please Standby

Should we still be Standing By???

 

[Alpha 5]

Are we still on standby?

 

[Bulk]

I never voted for Red Ranger, what are you talking about? Not today, not last phase.

Sorry. I just double checked and I must've been looking at your green ranger vote from today which was also a prod vote.

 

[Blue Ranger]

I saw it as you potentially (1) justifying your vote on Goldar and (2) immediatey jumping after Trini without much prompting, which I saw as something scum, having voted for Goldar, would want to do.

That would only be true if Goldar wasn't being erratic, and he didn't try hard. I'm not sure how either of those are a vote justification unless you don't agree. My reason for voting him was also explained last day phase, so why would I need to bring it up again?

 

[Jason]

Ok with Red Ranger confirmed town, let's look at that vote flop.

 

[Sawneeks]

‘It’s Morphin’ Time!’

rac, the Red Ranger, has powered down and will now post in their main account for the remainder of the game.

Welcome to the Morphin Grid.

You are the Red Ranger, a Town Username Celebrity.

Once per game during the Day Phase you may post the command ‘It’s Morphin’ Time!’ in the Game Thread to have a Mod reveal and confirm your real identity as well as your Alignment. You will then post in your real account for the remainder of the game.

However until then, not only is this your Role Name but it is also your identity that will hide who you truly are. You will be given access to a special account to use only for this game. All game-related posts or messages must be made through this account.

Your login information is:
Username:
Password: whyyougottadothiswhenwe'rebothbusydude

Each password is unique, please do not change it.

You are aligned with Town and win when all threats to Town have been eliminated.

THE GAME CONTINUES AS NORMAL
Day Ends in:

 

[Rita Repulsa]

dude

not gonna lie

that is an awesome ability

kudos gamerrunners

 

[Black Ranger]

Password: whyyougottadothiswhenwe'rebothbusydude

LOL

 

[Green Ranger]

I'm not sure who to go for now. I was convinced that rac might have been scum.

 

[Zordon]

Okay so can someone please explain to me why a huge chunk of the game very suddenly moved on to Red?

Why didn't you actually move there before all this happened? You asked others to do it but you didn't. And not all these people had been on Red before:

[Bulk]

Okay so can someone please explain to me why a huge chunk of the game very suddenly moved on to Red?

He posted some snark about waiting for a lynch lead to be decided so he could jump onto it, then voted for Jason for little to no justification, then I pointed out that he'd been the one to make a 3-way-tie yesterday by voting Goldar (I dunno if that had any impact) and the votes piled up.

I think this is good, we have about 4 people who had to get their vote off Red 30 mins away from day end. This may give us some reads, for example:

I'm really not sure who to go for now.

Guess I'll go with

Vote: Billy

This guy with the most boring safest no-info lynch in existence.

Wait, what

What I explained when I voted. I really think we need to clear up what the hell happened at the end of D1 with the Goldar and Trini push. No one seems to care about Blue Ranger today, so I think we need to pick Jason or Trini right now.

From this dog pile, i'm giving green ranger a pass. they voted for Red ranger almost 600 posts prior to the pile

That leaves Black ranger (which makes sense because its self serving). It starts to get the vote onto another target that's isn't them (as Black Ranger and I are vote leaders).

Zack, Rita and Alpha 5 jump on in quick succession in the DP. Red Ranger makes the play that its alpha 5. I have been town reading Rita Repulsa since day 1, I'm not going to flip flop on that now. That leaves Alpha 5 (who red ranger thinks the scum in that pile is) and Zack. Zack is playing too crazy of a game to be anything but town. BUT is it all an act?

In order of most likely scum to least likely I leave it as Black Ranger, Alpha 5, Zack, Green Ranger, Rita Repulsa.

So to that end.
vote: Black Ranger

 

[Blue Ranger]

@Zack did you explain why you slid into RR's train and I just missed it?

 

[Bulk]

Why didn't you actually move there before all this happened? You asked others to do it but you didn't. And not all these people had been on Red before:

My attitude since I came here today has been to try to force people to make decisions. I didn't want to move off of black because I wanted to see if that would make people jump from Jason/Black to Red. I was planning on changing but rac genuinely surprised me with his command.

No, I legitimately scumread Green Ranger but there's no movement in that direction. Did you read the rest of my posts about him?

Yeah, you're actually one of the players I just spent some time reading the most. And I agree with you, it's just that that vote in particular reads like a prod vote, that's what "I want to see if Green Ranger in particular will show back up today".

 

[Black Ranger]

Damn it guys, I literally said I voted for her cause I wasn't sure who else to vote for and I'm not voting for someone I don't think is Scum (Jason) for self preservation reasons.

I'd rather vote for people I think are or might be scum. and Billy is the closest to that right now.

 

[Bulk]

"that's what "I want to see if Green Ranger in particular will show back up today" screams to me"

Is how I wanted to end that post :P

WhIch I doubled down on later. Look I'd be thrilled if Green Ranger was a lynch candidate but that ship seems to be stalled in the rocks. VERY intrigued by everyone who ignored it today though.

 

[Zack]

No, I legitimately scumread Green Ranger but there's no movement in that direction. Did you read the rest of my posts about him?

At first Zyaaaa didn't really consider your case against Green Ranger much, but I could see it. A couple of his posts are raising some alarms, like this presumptuous one

I understand some of the arguments for Black Ranger but I don't know if I see them as scum. Scum aren't going to just claim ordinary out of nowhere, especially with only two votes on them at the time.
