Aliens II: Xenomorph Within - Town Wins!!

[A.J.]

I ****ed up at the end of the Day there, can't take it back now. I should've stayed put since LZM hit a bunch of check marks D2 - screwing up his reads, differentiating between types of scum, etc. I got happy feet and decided to follow Crusher because I thought maybe he saw something in SMC that he'd recognize more than I would, and I had thought SMC was suspect after how he blew up on Nolder D1. Oh well, I'm glad LZM got-got anyway and saved us another Day having to wait around to lynch him.

crusher isn't a VIABLE INCUBATOR anymore.

and since when does having mafia rule out cult?

When the flavor dictates there is only one enemy faction?

If Aliens are mafia who would be cult?

[A.J.]

So Dice is either not thinking or he's scum. He's been chasing this cult angle since D1.

Ape is confirmed not a teammate of LZM.

Nolder is at ease. Wouldn't lynch.

80 voted LZM out of the gate and generally has played a clean game. Wouldn't lynch.

JC cuts thru the noise and votes his suspects. Wouldn't lynch.

Smash can get got. Seems to be playing to the meta I've heard others talk about how he avoids the thread like a plague as scum. I guess me calling it out D1 makes me scum too.

Dunnie can get got. Hasn't done anything but vote Nolder.

Pac claimed scum and hasn't done anything else. He can get got.

Hallia is MIA. Maybe sub her for CTM so we can have another active player?

JiF im unsure about. From my experience I'd think I could have a lean on him at this point in the game but he's going through a lot at home. Can't blame him. I'd hold off for more but voting Nolder two Days straight isn't a good look.

[A.J.]

Lynch everyone in LZM's null reads and we probably win.

 

good game.

We can discuss it more later since we all have in game biases going on right now but, yes Smash should be lynched D1 every game until he changes how he plays or I guess until he just quits playing.

I know that sounds harsh but if a community actually did this and weeded out people who are a chronic activity problem their games would be amazingly active and I think you might also find surprisingly more fulfilling than many of the games we have now.

I want to be clear. I am not trying to knock anyone or anything and Smash was just one example I'm not singling him out and it's not like I don't like the guy. Nor am I particularly unhappy with games on JN. It might be this just wouldn't work on JN anyway because you guys are too good of friends with each other to exclude anyone even to the detriment of the game. I'm just saying that if you want more active games the only reliable way to get them is to self police your community of players.

Agree with this.  Catching up now.

Derp. If soldiers are the only viable incubators, the scum/aliens are going to want to target soldiers so their kills/implants are successful. 

Pac is pre-occupied with whether or not I have a PR. Fishing, perhaps, for if I'm a soldier or not.

Pac should die soon as possible. Smash too. AJ too.

Good luck town.  First game back in over a year and I'm speed lynched in D2.  **** you all.  

Look at the 3 speed lynchers in LZM, Nolder and AJ.  Those are by best scum tell.

 

 

Sorry to see you leave this early SMC.  Hope we play again soon.

Dice: he's either town or scum, so you aren't saying anything

Ape: I'm not confirmed as anything, so you're pushing false logic

80: easy for scum to play clean, they know more than us - plus scum should be voting each other early for distancing, this isn't false logic, but it flies in the face of basic mafia play

JC: not even sure what this means, but okay

Smash: Wifom

Dunnie: Not saying anything new about him.

Pac: Not saying anything new about him.

Hallia: Not saying anything new about her.

JIF: Closest this in this list to taking a position, but still a bit fence-sitter for my taste, as he's basically saying "I could go there, if others do"

I'm not sure what to make of this uselessness.

Lemme rephrase so it gets through that thick neanderthal skull of yours.

Dice never has a ton of content. But he's sharp and he's aggressive. This cult thing he's been pushing for two Days is a weak talking point. And even now when it's more or less proven false he's still chasing it. He's scum or he isn't processing information cause his head isn't in the game (understandably)

for you LZM called you 3p specially, IE he gave away his knowledge that you weren't on his team.

80, do you disagree so much with the read or are you just further outing yourself for having a huge crush on me? Dude is playing like a townie. I like him for Town.

JC in my experience is very direct and doesn't bullsh*t. I like his style. He says who his suspects are and votes accordingly.

dunnie hasn't done anything else to discuss. Continue ignoring if you want.

Hallia hasn't done anything else to discuss. Continue ignoring if you want.

As far as JiF goes, I don't know him well enough to say one way or another. I've seen him be really townie before and I've seen him be pretty scummy as well (in hindsight). This is a mix of the two. Idk if it's because he's got a lot going on at home or what. Not comfortable naming him either way but he's a suspect to me for now.

Nice work on LMZ.  A good example of, if something pings, it pings.  I should have switched to him when he posted that completely fabricated list.  Oh well, good job whoever got him.

The rush to SMC was pointless though.  I'll look back to see if it anything was super scummy from it.  I do agree with the banter around the mechanics of the most votes get lynched but another time for that debate.

Not sure what to make of Nol.  Part of my reason for voting him was that I could see a scenario where scum would use the potential of a cult as a cover so that town would chase their tails, which happened perfectly.  No consensus lynches thus far and it's down 3 town vs. 1 mafia.  The fact he brought it up, only to ask to drop it, only to then dig in deep that it's real and then be the first to claim it isn't the case, is really ugly.  But ugly doesn't mean scum.  Especially with Nol.  However, the 1 vs. 1 with AJ was ballsy.  Not sure here. 

Pings...Smash and AJ had pings but AJ's was because he moved to LMZ, so it doesn't ping as much in hindsight.  My best bets right now are Smash and Pac.  Both playing like cowards which is much in line with their meta as scum.

That's not accurate. A post filled with comments about cult? Really? That's how you describe saying "please don't be a cult" over and over? A misrep if I've ever seen one.

I believe I've already said this but shortly after making the post I regretted it. It was distracting and stupid and I own that. I tried repeatedly D1 to shut the conversation down.

 

Geez, defensive much?

Who's misrep'ing who here?  You are 100% responsible for all the cult hysteria that took place in the game.  Denying this is scummy as ****.  Don't back away from it now.  You brought it up, you then told everyone not to talk about it and then you open D2 digging your heels in that this was a cult game and were willing to sacrifice yourself to show that AJ was the cult leader.  And now you really weren't talking about cult?  please. 

Did one of the Aliens steal your memory?  Men in Black style?  Or are you an Alien?
