Scum Thread Army of The Blargonauts - Scum Chat

[heymonkey]

Okay, Faddy said enough about Fandorin in the thread that I think we can gloss over him, but what about the others? I can look at what he's posted here shortly. Pickle has an art class tonight so I'll be hanging out in the back with my computer.

 

[dragon mom]

We're talking about you, Natiko. Fran thinks Malus was the counterbus between two scum: Fando and Faddy.

 

[dragon mom]

Fran town reads you but says your vote at EoD doesn't look good.

 

[dragon mom]

We're also talking about who I should "check" tonight. Leaning towards you, Monkey.

It may be risky, but I'm pretty much confirmed town at this point. So if I give you a green check, it might work.

However, if one of us dies, that would be bad.

 

[heymonkey]

I thought we were holding off on the block so you could say you were blocked again? If not, we need to submit a block candidate ASAP and then I'd suggest checking and clearing someone who isn't likely to have much impact, not me. But holding the block may be better than clearing someone else. We already have a few to mow through. Which is good - it keeps me alive, because there's no reason for scum to kill me yet. If you green check me, I probably rise in nk targets as I was generally townread anyway.

And Sorian agrees with Fran on all those accounts, so we should be able to take down Fandorin easily tonight.

 

[heymonkey]

anyway, out for a bit to get Pickle, but will be back.

 

[heymonkey]

Oh! We could green check malus. That almost confirms Fando as scum. If we need a green check, that’s the one. Y’all feel free to submit a block for me if you need to.

 

[Natiko]

This is all a very dicey plan. If Bae EVER gets a check off it will be heavily scrutinized now. In a world where we have a blocker and know the identify of the doctor and the cop - they both die back to back in whatever order we want and never get a block off (block doc, kill cop or vice versa using a strong kill). It makes no sense for scum to let the cop get a check out so playing it that way will look very sketchy.

 

[Natiko]

check off, not block

 

[Natiko]

Fran town reads you but says your vote at EoD doesn't look good.

Yeah, that was bound to catch some flak but I feel like I have an okay enough defense between immediately expressing concern over Faddy's claim and that I was never strongly pushing him as town. I always had concerns and was just sprinkling that I had reason to wait. Not gonna sweat it too much. Maybe I die in the next few phases, but I don't think it'll be this phase.

 

[Natiko]

Zeke: “I think all these people did something scummy.”

Then votes someone completely unrelated.

I swear he doesn’t even try to play seriously anymore.

 

[heymonkey]

Uh oh, couple people looking at me.

 

[Natiko]

Uh oh, couple people looking at me.

I think you’ll be okay, but if you’re concerned I can not follow up the way I was going to after I mentioned you (which itself is dependent on the below).

Did we ever settle on what Bae is going to say? Does she claim a check or no?

 

[heymonkey]

I think we say blocked again. I agree with you.

 

[Natiko]

I think we say blocked again. I agree with you.

@dragon mom Say you were blocked again when you do go in pleasee.

Monkey - the post I mentioned you I think stands on it’s own without me following up and digging in on you if you prefer I play it that way. Just let me know. (For context: I was going to suggest a theory that scum have the ability to strong kill and that’s why your reaction was more muted for Faddy’s reveal than others - you knew he was likely to be counter claimed).

 

[heymonkey]

it just occurred to me that with Ketkat dead, another of us is dead, technically.
bad omens.

 

[Natiko]

That was my first thought after she claimed lol

 

[Natiko]

Brazil out here OMGUSing not for reads against himself but against his brother lol

 

[dragon mom]

oh no ive been roleblocked

 

[heymonkey]

someone should stop roleblocking you!
what an asshole that roleblocker is!

 

[heymonkey]

I WILL FIGHT YOU NATIKO I'M NOT AFRAID

 

[Natiko]

I WILL FIGHT YOU NATIKO I'M NOT AFRAID

Your sentence didn’t make sense to me okay D:

 

[heymonkey]

oh lol

I’m sorry, booboo.

 

[Natiko]

It's fine, probably best if we butt heads a bit in the thread. I suspect I'll be lynched within three days at best with our shrinking candidate pool.

 

[heymonkey]

I'm trying to keep my post count up but I also feel very LET THEM FIGHT about this whole day.

 

[Natiko]

I'm trying to keep my post count up but I also feel very LET THEM FIGHT about this whole day.

Yeah, I really hope they lynch Fan or Brazil.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Day 4, two scum down, people tearing at each other, seems like your standard mafia game. Hopefully it's one of those games where town scuttles their early lead and endgame is just active scum driving discussion.

 

[Natiko]

That would be nice. Still feel like we're going to face an uphill battle unless more deaths start appearing.

 

[Natiko]

Well, for what it's worth my reason for scumreading Brazil in KH is no longer valid because it turns out he can get real fucking heated as town too lol

 

[heymonkey]

uh oh I may have fucked up here haha

 

[Natiko]

I give us six phases, maybe seven until we lose barring some major help. Oh well.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Sorry about the shade but my arguments will fall flat if malus and Fan flip town.

"Turns out there was no second scum wagon, whaddaya know?"

 

[Natiko]

I don’t mind. I don’t think we’re going to lose due to shade - I think we’re going to lose due to so many widely town read players lol

 

[heymonkey]

Well, the good thing is malus will flip town and then maybe we can get a couple lynches out of that while we pick off confirmed townies.

 

[heymonkey]

What is CeeCee up to?

 

[Natiko]

Just have a feeling once we burn through malus and one of Fan/Brazil town will close in on whichever of us still stands. No clue what CeeCee is doing. Probably just being weird.

 

[Natiko]

Love you Monkey <3 I'm just faking asshole to give you more cover when I end up getting lynched. You're still ultimately our best shot at winning between your ability and your town standing.

 

[heymonkey]

I think everybody’s on shaky ground but we’re gonna do our best.

 

[heymonkey]

Also I GUESS you’re okay too. <3

 

[heymonkey]

Hilariously, Brazil is describing my internal attitude but making it about Sorian.

 

[Natiko]

Just didn't want you to take my comment in the thread seriously lol I would actually feel okay about our chances if it weren't for the huge number of mislynches we need to win this game in general. Town is just going in circles.

 

[heymonkey]

Maybe the items will help pare down the playerbase.

 

[Natiko]

We're all just going to spread out roughly evenly for the item(s) right?

 

[Natiko]

@Lone_Prodigy One more post this phase. I believe in you.

 

[heymonkey]

I don't really understand how the item thing works. Are we guessing real world items? If so can't we just google? I'm confused. Maybe I should ask @Grizzly if clarification will come in the thread before that commences?

 

[heymonkey]

Wow, Brazil's saltiness took down the whole forum.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

I was going to post a reads list too!

 

[Natiko]

I don't really understand how the item thing works. Are we guessing real world items? If so can't we just google? I'm confused. Maybe I should ask @Grizzly if clarification will come in the thread before that commences?

I'm guessing they'll be made up items with a value that Grizzly came up with himself but who knows.

 

[heymonkey]

god, I'm exhausted
can this day be over yet

 

[Natiko]

god, I'm exhausted
can this day be over yet

I wish. I apologize if my demeanor this phase hurts my chances of living, but I just can't bother to get invested in these fights when they aren't going anywhere.

 

[heymonkey]

If I was a vig, I would shoot you, Brazil.

 

[Natiko]

I'd shoot myself

 

[heymonkey]

NO, NO MORE SCUMDEATH

for a day or two at least

 

[heymonkey]

Brazil out here softing a role.

 

[heymonkey]

I think that means Fando is vanilla. I wonder if Brazil is neutral. I'm sure this game does have one. What other role could he be? maybe we can brainstorm

 

[dragon mom]

sorry was busy what did i miss

 

[heymonkey]

mess is all that happened
just a lot of yelling and trolling from b&f

 

[Natiko]

To be fair Sorian has been a bigger troll than Fand, just not as big of one as Brazil lol

 

[heymonkey]

Sorian has largely been Sorian, tho.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

I should probably move off malus.

 

[heymonkey]

I would prefer Brazil to die if you want opinions but I don't think I can easily switch.

 

[Natiko]

Sorian has largely been Sorian, tho.

He played the role of egging them on perfectly. Unfortunately for him it's not going to turn out like he hopes lol

I'm sitting on malus unless I have to move to Fan to break a tie. I'm too invested in my town read of Brazil.

 

[heymonkey]

Can we kill Brazil for the lulz? No? Okay.

I do say we kill Fran. Gotta start picking off those confirmed townies.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

I think Fanto is the more dangerous one.

 

[Natiko]

I think Fran is the one more likely to start picking us all out. He’s naturally more skeptical. Not sure if killing him now before he can form more reads or waiting to try and not draw attention to his current ones is better

 

[heymonkey]

LP, why do you think Fanto is more dangerous? I think that isn't the case until late game, and we can get him the following night. Fran is REALLY stubborn. But I'm curious about your take.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Fran is stubbornly wrong a lot. Fanto is more thorough and perceptive.

Depends on what Fran's reads are. He does tend to pick up on small details, but then makes the wrong conclusion. Whenever we're both town he's very frustrating to play with.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

But I'm good either way. I probably have more sway with Fanto. Fran always scum reads me.

 

[heymonkey]

Fran is stubbornly wrong a lot. Fanto is more thorough and perceptive.

Depends on what Fran's reads are. He does tend to pick up on small details, but then makes the wrong conclusion. Whenever we're both town he's very frustrating to play with.

He usually goes after me specifically when we play together so I'm definitely biased on this. (Fran, that is.)

 

[heymonkey]

I already sent in a bid of $83.79.

 

[heymonkey]

Someone should go higher and someone should go lower, maybe. I'm gonna check not-US amazon real quick.

 

[heymonkey]

Okay, got a bear on Amazon.de for 18.95 euros (about 21 dollars) but the average price I'm seeing for the lollipops everywhere is about $50. So someone might start with $70 and take the discount off there.

 

[heymonkey]

I guess that would be $55.30ish if anyone needs a bid.

 

[Natiko]

I put in 55.31

 

[Natiko]

I’m being scumread by Fran and Fant so it doesn’t really matter to me.

 

[dragon mom]

I'm submitting a bid of $4.20.

 

[heymonkey]

hahahahahaha

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

http://ozarkdelight.com/sugar-freeplus40ctbag.aspx

$15 for 40, $45 for 120.

https://www.toysrus.fi/my-friend-and#45;iso-nalle-jolla-rusetti/000000000106759001.html

54.99 euros, which is $62.53 USD.

62.53+45=107.53 x 0.79 = 84.95

Awfully close to Monkey's bid...

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

What are the odds that someone else did the research? And would it be that easy?

WIFOM...

 

[heymonkey]

oh, did you find the actual bear?!?

 

[heymonkey]

Nice job!

 

[heymonkey]

Just have to be the closest. And since we're close to each other, hopefully one of us will get it.

 

[Natiko]

So..who are we killing and who’s submitting the kill (Bae or myself)?

 

[The Bear]

standard reminder about night actions etc.

 

[heymonkey]

My vote is still Fran. I assume we continue to hold the block?

 

[Natiko]

May as well at this point. I refuse to believe Town even has any particularly strong roles left anyways.

Who performs the kill, me or Bae?

 

[heymonkey]

I don’t know that it matters.

I do wonder what Fantomas or Fran will say in reaction to Fandorin’s flip. I just think Fran is more immediately dangerous and Fanto can be contained for a day.

 

[Natiko]

Pirate Bae - KILL: Fran

 

[Natiko]

In the off chance there’s a tracker I’m probably more likely to be targeted I would think.

 

[heymonkey]

Here’s hoping.

 

[heymonkey]

Hope you were closest, LP.

 

[dragon mom]

I dunno I think my bid definitely won.

 

[Natiko]

Grizzly probably would have notified us in here so unless he just hasn’t done so yet we likely lost.

 

[heymonkey]

Boooooooooo hisssssss

 

[The Bear]

I'll just make it quick - no, the winner was none of you.

 

[Natiko]

Whomp, whomp. We just can’t catch a break.

 

[heymonkey]

Damn. LP was close, too.

 

[heymonkey]

I sure hope it wasn’t Brazil.

 

[Natiko]

We need this phase to be something like “kills half the townies” in order to catch back up lol

 

[heymonkey]

Maybe Brazil won
and it's a vig shot
and he'll shoot Sorian
and then get lynched

a girl can dream
