Spectator Thread Knives Out - Spec Chat

[Fanto]

I think it's still possible, but highly unlikely, for Scum to win at this point.

Had Chugg survived today, I think their chances would have been pretty decent, though he would certainly have been up for the vote again tomorrow.

Scum is down to 1 player now, and Town has 2 chances to find them. I think they'll do it, but who knows, stranger things have happened lol.

If everyone is cool with it, I'll go ahead and go open spoilers in here, probably once the day starts tomorrow.

 

[jman1954goat]

Wow is that a terrible read by flat earth pandas I can't see myself ever subbing out as scum.

"Got stressed and left" Scum is not a stressful role scum is the most fun. I love when people correctly scum read me and I have to get out of danger, it's like a thrill ride and I never get mad because there correct and I'm a bad guy.

If I get mad and replace out (something I will try very hard to not do again) 99% odds I am town.

 

[Chuggernaut]

Major Scum Spoilers:

Spoiler

That pre-typed from Chugg was weaksauce lol. In Scum chat he was all "I'm gunna have a pre-typed post, fuck Town, this is gunna be great" and then he posts like 4 sentences and I'm sitting here like "You call that a pre-typed?" Lmao.

Yeah it was lmao. I regretted it as soon as I posted it. Think I’m having some mafia burnout because I just could not get my head in the game here

Boo no spoilers!

 

[Chuggernaut]

Also I would like to believe in my scum buddy, but town is probably winning this

 

[jman1954goat]

I think the biggest problem is you were kinda all over the place even since day 1

 

[A Wild Shark Appears]

Gimme those sweet sweet spoilers.

 

[Fanto]

Think I’m having some mafia burnout because I just could not get my head in the game here

Yeah, I know that feel.

Boo no spoilers!

Ok! Give me some reads then, who's the last Scum?

 

[heymonkey]

YAY PANCAKES YOU DID IT

 

[heymonkey]

Also I would like to believe in my scum buddy, but town is probably winning this

honk honk mf

 

[jman1954goat]

@TheChuggernaut it's a tough situation in such a small game and nowhere to hide I think in a bigger game you would have gone farther.

 

[jman1954goat]

Yeah, I know that feel.

Ok! Give me some reads then, who's the last Scum?

has to be zipped, pandas, or pancakes in that order.

 

[A Wild Shark Appears]

Yeah I’m guessing last scum is Feps or Zipped.

 

[heymonkey]

Yeah I’m guessing last scum is Feps or Zipped.

These are the only two it really can be here. Everyone else has towntold pretty hard except those two.

 

[lokiduck]

Spec Chats, like Vere said, or even joining a modchat just to observe, that's something that's totally possible, just need to reach out to a gamerunner beforehand and ask. Getting the bird's eye view of a whole game before it even starts, and being able to watch Scum do their thing in real time, and watch Town yell at each other instead of Scum, can be helpful for noticing those same patterns in the games you later play in.

Yeah game watching really helps. Because of running my own game and being a game watcher, I got a lot of good insight into how the mafia team works and even other chats as well.

Hawthorn, I have something for you:

Hawthorn has been amazing. Love my replacement so much <3

Maybe now she will learn to like playing town!

It helps that the person she replaced was really town read ;) But yes :D

 

[A Wild Shark Appears]

These are the only two it really can be here. Everyone else has towntold pretty hard except those two.

Yup and that push for malus seemed SO scummy.

 

[AllThingsPurple]

Spoiler

It was pretty obvious Chugg was scum when he replaced in. I didn't think it was fair to go straight at him because ATP replaced. Now I even said yesterday that I didn't think Zeke & Chugg were on the same team and that should have been the point where I backed off Zeke.

A bit annoying. I didn't sub out because I was scum. I subbed out because of you and Loki role-playing.

 

[AllThingsPurple]

Sorry ATP :( I tried

No Worries dude, its my fault seemingly. Next game I roll town im subbing out straight away.

 

[lokiduck]

A bit annoying. I didn't sub out because I was scum. I subbed out because of you and Loki role-playing.

Sorry we made you uncomfortable with the RPing. It was basically just my way of shitposting and doing content till i had something to work with. I admittedly might have kept it up slightly if real life stuff hadn't affected me so much, but it was just my way of having fun since normally you can't openly flavor claim like that.

I will say tho that like I said in game I wasn't scum reading Chuggs because you subbed out.

I worded that clumsily because I was a tad annoyed, to be clear, I subbed out because of insecurities about my own writing. You and hedin role play was neat and I would have loved to have joined in I just didn't feel capable of writing well enough to rp and incorporate trying to play mafia.

Ah okay.

 

[A Wild Shark Appears]

Yeah if there’s one weird thing that this game has taught me it’s that shitposting is an art.

 

[lokiduck]

lol I've never really considered myself that great at Shit posting largely because I'm a terrible improvizer. I like to plan shit in advance.

However, this case it was like super totally easy roleplaying as Joni because she's like a super fun character with such an amazing company. <3

I'm also proud of myself for that joke vote on Hedin. I'm shit at doing those, and have only ever done it once before which was voting sparks in the first post of scooby doo mafia, because he did the same joke as me pregame but better.

It's not all that bad, we get to do all the paper work and enjoy doing it :D :D :D

We agree.

Trust me purple it's not you subbing out it was chuggs gameplay and acting like his name was Shady Badman especially day 3.

 

[heymonkey]

Welcome, malus! RIP

Zeke coming out strong.

 

[Fanto]

Zeke was very excited when Chugg flipped Scum yesterday lol. I shared a *truffleshuffle* with him in PMs lol.

 

[heymonkey]

I dunno what Zeke sent Pancakes but I hope it was letitgo.gif.

 

[A Wild Shark Appears]

Zipped wants to look at Lokiduck/Hawthorn and Chugg's interactions?!

He has to be the last scum.

 

[A Wild Shark Appears]

Maybe I'm wrong there but both Loki and Hawthorn have been exuding townie energy all game so it just seems like a weird place to look.

 

[Fanto]

I dunno what Zeke sent Pancakes but I hope it was letitgo.gif.

It was this:

 

[jman1954goat]

I really hope Zeke gets off the pancakes tunnel. Is it possible it her Yes. Zipped and Pandas are way more likely to be scum however.

 

[jman1954goat]

So weird to kill Malus instead of Season 19 MVP and 2021 replacement of the year Hawthorn.

 

[jman1954goat]

Like even if Zeke was right about Pancakes being the last scum refusing to even consider someone seems very shortsighted.

Edit: well it seems like Zeke is interacting with Zipped now so maybe he is not full tunnel mode.

 

[jman1954goat]

The reason I suspect Zipped is because he makes the most nothing statements this game.

The guy just posted we need to vote for fep because "at best fep is 1/2 scum and at worst he is town"

I think the word choice "after the bus yesterday" is odd

 

[jman1954goat]

It almost feels like mylo today to me if they choose wrong between Fep and Zipped (still unsure myself which of the 2 is scum) because I don't trust Zeke and Pancakes not to vote for Each other tomorrow.

Edit: however if the two came together on the last day to kill scum it would be a really cool friendship arc.

 

[A Wild Shark Appears]

Zipped trying to take advantage of Zeke tunneling Pancakes is so sus.

 

[heymonkey]

It was this:

Okay, that's good too.

Did I make you proud monkey?

you did, friend! you're townie af
(but it's really not Pancakes)

 

[lokiduck]

So weird to kill Malus instead of Season 19 MVP and 2021 replacement of the year Hawthorn.

I'm confused by this lol. If chuggs was still alive it would have been her (chuggs told me as much on discord :P) So I was really surprised.

I think the final scum is trying to throw off suspicion on them because they voted Malus (since I think it's Zipped or FEPs) and because Malus was massively townread after what happened.

The reason I suspect Zipped is because he makes the most nothing statements this game.

The guy just posted we need to vote for fep because "at best fep is 1/2 scum and at worst he is town"

I think the word choice "after the bus yesterday" is odd

Yeah this is why I voted Zipped lol. His arguments and votes were so weak.

 

[Chuggernaut]

I don't know what you're all talking about. Obviously not Zipped

 

[lokiduck]

Someone run a search with me, I only got four posts where chuggs even mentioned Loki, I got more from the Hawthorn search and they only interacted for a day.

that being said the four posts, three are early saying Loki is town and the last is changing. No ACTUAL conversations with Lokiduck (which really isn’t that bad in this game since Loki had a LOT going on IRL during most of the game)

I wonder why? It's almost like Hawthorn has been playing in the game only for a day.

 

[lokiduck]

I don't know what you're all talking about. Obviously not Zipped

 

[heymonkey]

That Hawthorn didn't die (or Zeke) should tell y'all who it is, honestly.

edit: well, addendum: that Hawthorn didn't die makes it very obvious. I actually don't know why not Zeke unless they thought Zeke would be a distraction, but Zeke is the towniest town right now after Chuggs' flip.

 

[lokiduck]

Seriously Zipped why are you even considering me/thorny. LOL She's the only one trying to be peacekeeper between Zeke and Pancakes... ooooh that's why

 

[Chuggernaut]

Loki I don't know why you're not telling spec that me and you were scum partners at this point

 

[heymonkey]

Zipped what are you doing

There are a lot of people who'd have bussed Chuggs cold with the hammer drop but I can't see Pancakes as being one of them.

 

[Chuggernaut]

Oh sorry, meant to send that over Discord

 

[heymonkey]

Loki I don't know why you're not telling spec that me and you were scum partners at this point

chuggs did you write in this book

 

[lokiduck]

LOL if I was scum i'd keep Zeke and Pancakes around purposefully with the hope they'd keep bickering, just like I would have kept malus so Zipped or Feps would keep pushing him. So the fact that Thorny didn't die really surprises me as the person in that slot.

 

[lokiduck]

Loki I don't know why you're not telling spec that me and you were scum partners at this point

You just had to go and spoil it didn't you.

 

[Chuggernaut]

chuggs did you write in this book

No that was you

 

[A Wild Shark Appears]

Ya'll joke but that would make people scumread poor Hawthorn forever.

She needs this towncred.

 

[lokiduck]

Ya'll joke but that would make people scumread poor Hawthorn forever.

She needs this towncred.

What are you talking about? Chuggs like totally just spoiled the big twist.

 

[A Wild Shark Appears]

What are you talking about? Chuggs like totally just spoiled the big twist.

 

[lokiduck]

The fact that Zipped keeps going after the mainly townread peeps is LOL. Like come on Zipped.

 

[jman1954goat]

That Hawthorn didn't die (or Zeke) should tell y'all who it is, honestly.

edit: well, addendum: that Hawthorn didn't die makes it very obvious. I actually don't know why not Zeke unless they thought Zeke would be a distraction, but Zeke is the towniest town right now after Chuggs' flip.

but Zeke is the most likely to mis vote I would not kill Zeke ever if scum is who I think it is

 

[heymonkey]

but Zeke is the most likely to mis vote I would not kill Zeke ever if scum is who I think it is

Yeah, possibly. But I think they'll drag him off Pancakes.

 

[jman1954goat]

The fact that Zipped keeps going after the mainly townread peeps is LOL. Like come on Zipped.

I actually like the tactic makes Zipped look more like confused town than the Lazy scum he looked like yesterday

all of Zipped arguments have been absolutely terrible though. He has never explained going hard after only Malus yesterday besides the very weak "slip" angle on malus.

He has presented no reason to go after fep at all besides "we have too"

I don't blame Fep for misreading my day 1 play but Zipped knows me and would have stronger reasoning if he actually thought I was scum.

 

[Chuggernaut]

Oh and I'm not saying anyone is wrong about me and Zeke.

But me and Zeke would 100% bus each other like that.

 

[Chuggernaut]

it's okay Zipped, I think you're doing great

 

[jman1954goat]

If zipped is scum he still has a decent path to victory he has to play this just right though. (Stop pushing things chill a bit.)

of Fep is scum he is already playing this just right stay low profile and let town feast on each other.

 

[jman1954goat]

Oh no Zipped baby what is you doing, don't say your confident it is pancakes when literally 40 minutes ago you were completely unsure who it was.

 

[jman1954goat]

Zipped chill out your about to throw this game you were not even in that bad a spot.

 

[jman1954goat]

it's okay Zipped, I think you're doing great

I was about to agree with you and point out what he was doing right until his last 2 post. This reminds me of launchpad in mylo during Risk going way to hard giving himself away. (Still won with neutral help though lol)

 

[Chuggernaut]

I was about to agree with you and point out what he was doing right until his last 2 post. This reminds me of launchpad in mylo during Risk going way to hard giving himself away. (Still won with neutral help though lol)

Nah, he's got it. He'll turn it around here. Just you watch

 

[lokiduck]

Ugh people need to listen to Thorny D: Come on people. Wha she's saying makes common sense.

 

[jman1954goat]

Nah, he's got it. He'll turn it around here. Just you watch

Yeah he can turn it around and he has done some good things I don't want to sound to harsh on Zipped mostly focusing on his last 2 post being a major unforced error.

Hawthorn went from leaning Fep to leaning Zipped because he is making no sense right now.

 

[jman1954goat]

Oh Zipped killed Malus because it is obviously the wrong play and sets up Wine in front of me!!!!!!

I get his plan now and honestly it's not bad.

 

[jman1954goat]

Still leaving The Crow alive is Hella dangerous

 

[lokiduck]

LOL Zipped... Chuggs townreads townies as scum, it's what he does to try and pocket people like he did me my first game >:( He doesn't townread his partner the entire fucking game.

 

[jman1954goat]

The argument that chuggs can't townread pancakes do to lack of interaction is so devoid of logic in multiple ways.

what a bad argument.

 

[jman1954goat]

Zeke escaped the tunnel !!!!!!!

for now........

 

[lokiduck]

I'm Joni, vanilla town.

I agree with your case against FEP. Zipped hasn't made a ton of sense to me today, but I can see his posts coming from town who's trying to readjust his reads after realizing he was wrong against Malus. The way Chuggs ducked out of voting for FEP pushes it enough in that direction that I'm confident in saying that it's FEP for me today.

I'm not saying that I'm setting up a chain-vote-out. If FEP flips town and I'm alive tomorrow, I'm not going to assume it's zipped, I'm going to look at all living players as possibilities.

I'll hold off on voting in case someone wants to say something, but that's my vote for today.

Go Thorny go! You can do it replacement Joni!

 

[jman1954goat]

@TheChuggernaut ok just admit it Alexi52 is your scum partner.

Shame Alexi52 editing your scum slip.

 

[Chuggernaut]

Wow Fanto are you really not going to mod kill Alexi for editing that

 

[jman1954goat]

Wow Fanto are you really not going to mod kill Alexi for editing that

I know The entire games integrity is ruined for what Alexi did.

 

[jman1954goat]

Just turbo Alexi and get the game over with.

 

[jman1954goat]

It's so hard for me to read Fep's No real scum tell for me or town tell is just process of elimination saying it has to be Him or Zipped.

(Small chance it's pancakes but it's small enough that If I was in the game I never vote for pancakes and accept the lose if she played that well.)

 

[Fanto]

I see I got done playing Jackbox right when they started talking about turboing, nice lol.

 

[jman1954goat]

Is Zipped is scum his path is now open vote out Feps then night kill The Crow.

Wait for Zeke's "Pancake Paranoia" (tm) to take over.

 

[jman1954goat]

Let's hope I'm wrong about zipped and Town wins right now.

 

[Chuggernaut]

Zipped is innocent

 

[jman1954goat]

Zipped is innocent

so towns about to win?

@Fanto Thank you for not spoiling the game. This last day of spec chat would have been way less fun if you told people who scum was.
