The hardest part has been getting his days and nights flipped appropriately. That and convincing him to play Zerg later in life. You're too late. You should already have been playing the zerg soundtrack for your significant other while the baby was still in the womb. But there's hope, just keep talking about mutalisks and zerglings. Maybe aim for "spawn more overlords" as his first words? | ||

Honestly, I ignored it as I don't know what it is. I remember it being in previous aperture games. It sounds bad, so lets keep it low! But other than that.. I'm mostly going with a "roll with the punches" approach to the roles and mechanics. Weird shit will happen, and we should deal with it when it happens. Right now corruption is at 0, so I'm not worried! | ||

If I understand it, we need 1 person per night to check the database to stop it from getting corrupted... and also fewer than 6 (tonight). So somebody who doesn't want to action tonight should use the database, and everybody else should stay away? Unless there are 5 scummers (absurd), that means we should be able to control corruption, right? | ||

On October 28 2020 21:09 Dirkzor wrote: + Show Spoiler + The TL Mafia Database The TL Mafia Database is a wealth of information, and has assisted players with their quest for victory in many games. Sadly, it is in a sorry state of disrepair. Weakening security protocols and new technology has enabled greater access, but more serious danger of Aperture Science infiltration. Without proper care, the database will destabilize with disastrous results. Each night, a player, instead of performing any action they may have, may visit the database and target another player. You will recieve a clue about that player's role or the setup at large. You can choose to learn whether your target has a role that has been in a previous aperture game before, If your target has activated some part of their role, what modifiers, if any, are currently affecting your target, or what effect the next stage of corruption level will cause. Because your connection to the database is unencrypted, Aperture Science will learn who you have targeted, but not the information you obtain. Other factions may be able to use the database in their own ways. If no players visit the Database, it will continue to destabilize, causing the Corruption Counter to increase by 1. In addition, if too many people (half a majority of players alive - for example, 4 players with 12 players alive) visit the database, the corruption counter will increase by 1. At corruption levels of 1, 3, and 5, a special effect will occur that will modify the game in some way. I think it would be nice to know what happens when the corruption counter increase. So maybe we could have 1 person check that and report back tomorrow. 4 people using this device (unless other, better, night actions available) does seem like a good strategy for us. The more info we have the easier it gets to find scum/third parties... Wait. You *want* corruption to increase?!!! | ||

So all I got is that you are avoiding me. Regardless of the intelligence of my "questions". And you are clearly not avoiding me in order to stop us from bickering, as you just called me stupid... | ||

I mainly never understand your train of thought and why you do the stuff you do and ask the questions you do, because to me most of the time they seem worthless and i dont understand how you can deduct any alignment indicative things from the answers. I mean like, you asked me if i am mafia or if i am a third faction. How on earth you think i am giving you any other answer than "no" regardless of my affiliation and how on earth that answer can tell you anything about my alignment? That's why i think the questions are stupid and i dont see a point in answering them. That's the only thing you have interacted with me. I dont genuinely have any reason to "avoid you" regardless of my alignment. I am basically just going to wait for more people to post, corruption counter is interesting. Especially to see what people want to do with it. It actually CAN tell something about someone's alignment. I mean like i think Dirkzor is town already.  What I am doing is trying to get you to talk. It's not so much that you deny you're scum (duh), it's how you do it. Anyway, I do like this post. It feels like you're thinking about my alignment, and don't already know it. Been quite a while, so I don't know if scum!rayn is good at faking that, but at least you didn't escalate and start a fight. Town list for now. Not sure what you see in dirkzor. I don't see anything indicative of alignment. Seems easy enough for scum to talk about corruption. And not understanding the mechanics is null. @dirkzor: that bit made sense. My problem is with you wanting to send 4 people to the database, which in the bit you quoted, last paragraph, says pretty black on white that it will increase the corruption counter. In any case, if we send 4 people, they shouldn't ask what the next level does, as we'll definitely find out the hard way! | ||

(1) they can't use night actions, (2) they are almost certain to survive the night, and (3) even if they lie about their findings, catching a scummer in a lie like that is great info. So please, if you're mafia, volunteer to go to the TL Mafia Database tonight. It'll be a huge help! (obviously, volunteering for this duty is *not* a scumtell). | ||

On October 28 2020 23:29 raynpelikoneet wrote: yes i dont think he'd do that without discussing it first with his teammates. the intention of my first post was to get reaction from him mainly, because we just talked about the other game before the game started. I think it's actually best to full-claim with everyone at the start of the game (i also know that's not gonna happen because people dont believe in it), i havent lost an all-roled game where people actually did that, ever. I kinda thought he was mafia when he didnt post at first, but then he came in with a really really anti-town suggestion about the corruption level (if you are town you know what i mean, townies mainly fear for unknown -- as they should). It's like, he would have to take a step back to wait for his teammates to answer my opening, but then he just goes with THAT of everything he could have said. If you get what i mean. I think you're reading a hell of a lot into it. (1) I don't really see how his mechanic discussion was good or bad. It was mechanics discussion. He misunderstood something and yolo'd it. He really did understand something else and latched onto it, and it's a good idea for town, so I don't see how him saying to send 4 people (bad) to find out what 1 person (good) should find out was so outrageously anti-town. (2) You are expecting a hell of a lot of coordination from scum. I admit it has been a long time since I played mafia, but my experience with scum teams has been that coordination in anything except Grand Schemes (TM) during the day is pretty non-existent. That said, if this is a hugely anti-town proposal, I guess it's a Grand Scheme, and a scummer would want to run it by his team-mates first. But I don't see his remarks as anything I would run by my buddies if it was scum!me making them. Maybe explain it to me in babysteps, as I really don't see it. | ||

At least this whole exchange firms up my town read on you. I am not liking Iamp after the little exchange with him. He is sitting on a fence and waiting for people to feed him ideas... and then when you lay it out for him he is super uncritical of it. | ||
