1) Layabout tells us he's masoned with CC. I think someone mentioned CC was 3p at this point? not sure
2) at some point Layabout claims 3p in scum QT, saying he was converted but is still scum
3) Kitaman tells layabout he too has been converted. Layabout isn't (???) fooled by this, and (knowing kita is in fact scum???), shared crucial information about how the 3p works, thereby giving Kita the means to shut down CC.

I initially thought Kita had suckered Layabout and pumped him for info, but layabout claims he was never suckered/pumped for info, and he offered all that voluntarily and without being fooled.

This is why I really hated this third party role. I felt like if scum was somehow converted he could never authentically play his new role. Either it would be too broken by posting the mafia team and GGing the game, or he would just float back to his team and try to get the third party killed which went directly against his win condition, but would also be creating a new win condition for him by allowing him to regain his former win condition.

Agree in full.
I think I commented a similar thing in the obsqt.

Im still not sure whether layabout knew he would re-convert though?


my theory is that he didn't and kitaman actually pulled a fast one on him

weirdest thing is.. i read that log between kita/layabout

& im shocked, it went so easily

i mean.. there wasnt even a sense of concern from layabout?

odd, because I thought i read that once layabout converted he lost the mason ability with cosmicomics.
Hence? "HOW" could Kitaman mason him; and why was this never questioned?

The whole thing is convoluted.. regardless.. well earnt win, and good adaption to the day4 lynch environment.

So to defend his VE lynch Ace blames DocH setup. Makes sense.
if I had to describe his playstyle, it'd be a coked up rabbit with the attention of a goldfish injecting caffeine into himself directly through an IV drip. it's like a reel of random animated shorts where things just blow up randomly

eh? I did no such thing and if it came across that way, oops. I dont know how many times I need to repeat myself but your lynch was based on the Vet claim + you being Scum lying/being Town recruited and the fact you WERE apathetic towards Town. If you want to refute any of these you're more than welcome.

I think in a normal setup you are allowed one "Twist" and in this case the twist was a 3p recruiter. I am not sure this was a non-normal game given how normal everything else was.

also thanks DrH and Oats for the great game!

I brought the shit to town. I said what I said to provoke a response from CC in tread. Apathetic toward town? You are taking one line fromMASON LOGS and trying to tie it to my entire play the game. I doesn't work that way. All evidence points to the oosite...that I cared deely about finding scum.

Mirror would have just recruited me and I would have lolld my way to victory if I were third party. You repeatedly calling me third party doesn't change the fact that I flipped town Ace. sorry again ot doesn't work that way.

And I've already said your plan made no sense: trying to "trick" someone and then posting you're tricking them IN PUBLIC plays on the assumption that player does not know how to read. What response from CC were you looking for? Sounds more to me that you were stumbling and had no clue what you were doing.

And no, it doesn't change the fact that you weren't third party but it does NOT excuse the way you played. The Vet claim was bad, the Mason thing was foolish, and you yourself even hopped on my wagon when I had no case on me until Wiggles showed up. If you were trying to get something out of CC then I don't see how I had anything to do with it. You're lying

This whole argument: "The other guy played bad so I was justified in my vote". How about stop thinking like that, eh?

But don't listen to me. I'm just the noob.

layabout lost his mason ability with cosmic, but was still able to converse with scum (kita)

kita lied and said he had been masoned by cosmic that cycle. Obviously no way for layabout to confirm since mason contact was broken.

Thats one of the whole things that is broken about this conversion thing, in my opinion.

Officially, if layabout converted and changed win-con.. he should not have access to the QT. Thus, Kita should never have been able to communicate with him.

Obviously, scum will know if this is the case.

I just think the mechanic is broken.

If you can not convert mafia... how do you tell the converter, who he CAN and CAN NOT convert?
That breaks the game as well.

Recruiter gets notified their conversion failed not knowing why (Priest type roles that block conversion or trying to convert Mafia)

or

Recuiter dies the night they try to convert Mafia. If this happens they either get a new recruiter picked from the existing ones in the faction (broken for obvious reasons) or the better but more controversial way: everyone in the faction dies when the leader dies.

I think that is what sl0osh/cosmi assumed was the case. (star crossed lovers IIRC)

If the priest is a one-off blue role, than the chances of failing on mafia >> failing on a priest. So I am not a fan of the failed conversation method.

Perhaps this whole situation could have been averted if layabout still had mason access to CC.
He could have held off the discourse with kita, to confirm first with CC?

Recruiter becomes a bit like zerg then.. continual psionic link

lol @ zerg scum.

we'll have to wait on Dr.H to chime in on what he wanted to accomplish. I don't think it was that bad as the game was still fun, and I don't think it outright ruined the game (and layabout seemed to like it, dont know if CC was really that upset either). Just something for the future when dealing with recruitment/cult roles and the potential pitfalls.

Well one other thing for me is:

This game specifically confirmed my love for Night Cycle - 23hr action submission deadline.

Considering the 24hr deadline was "fluid"; it was frustrating that the validity of vig claims be questioned purely due to a moving deadline; or BH final words require to be deleted etc

I have only seen the 23hr submission deadline in newbies, so uncertain why it is not apparent in the normal league? Any context I am missing?

hmm? If you mean 48hour day/24 hour night cycles I think that was the standard for a long time.

Oh yeah I had a huge HYOOOOJ post I made 5 minutes before the deadline the night I died, but the second I posted it DrH posted the day post 5 minutes early and he had me edit my post out ;_;

its still 48/24 cycle

but the submission deadline is 48/23

thus there is a 1hour deadzone, where you can post freely without consequence. (i.e. change to actions both town and scum)

Allows "final words" to be made with confidence of not influencing the night actions etc.

Also means, ppl can go to sleep 1 hr earlier
