There once was a Blargonaut Who posted more often than not He was one that some feared And others found weird Yet all responded with "what?"

Guys, I have a clearance meeting tomorrow afternoon and if things go bad I'll have to pull out of the game. If things go okay I'll stay in. I'll let you know tomorrow night which will probably be with 12 hours to go on D2.

I think it would be useful to try and get dragonz lynched. Vere seems to be setting himself up for that, as well as 30. I can't as I have been town-reading her. So I will likely vote elsewhere.

Whew! Hope we can get acohrs or dragonz lynched. Isaac wouldn't be a bad choice either

XD I suggest Blarg does one for Ourobolous --- I think Saw was right about Monkey being a cop. She asked Burb for his top 5 people he would check (30 was on that list, yay!). She seems super suspicious about confirmed townie LL lol. I need to see what she thought about him on D1. He brought up godfather seemingly out of nowhere, which should have alarmed a cop. At that point it was not public knowledge that there was an alignment mechanism in the game.

OH SNAP
Dragonz just got killed!
I think this is a good thing for me?
I'm going to take a few moments to try and react to this in a townie way.

Nice.
Crazy theory - is Palmer some sort of traitor role? I feel like a town palmer would push more against me and Sawneeks. Also, he talks about hunting coasters, but never mentions 30. In fact, his coaster stance is really beneficial to us, like he's trying to draw attention away from the more active players. His claim of being vanilla may have been a hidden cry to us to not NK him. He started testing the waters with a 'Launch might be scum by capitalizing on a townie mistake (mine)'. He had a useless vote on Blarg D1, which is his meta - he hates Blarg's playstyle. Even today, he went hard on Blarg, but as soon as Blarg started posting he unvoted. I think he might be secretly aligned with scum. But again, totally crazy theory.

Haha, I was thinking Palmer was more likely a neutral. It's either if he just plays up all sides

Damn Palmer's post 1505 is hitting a little too close to home... He's good! XD
I may have to go through 30s posts to find some shade to find a reason to vote him. Perry sure he won't get lynched today, but I could be.
Any idea on fakeclaims? I could claim town roleblocker who blocked Natiko on N1. I could say i was suspicious due to the tied vote and his reaction to Palmer. It would be safe seeing as he's a miller so he wouldn't have seen a message.
The other safe claim would be commuter. I wouldn't specify which night.
Blaaaaaarg I need you you're the gambit king!

Hmmmmm, it's just that claiming anything else that can be verified is kind of risky...I do believe people believe things that seem simplest to them...so maybe claim to have targeted LL yesterday?

jeez
I gotta say, this is one tough Town. Haven't seen a Town with this much soft rapport in a long while.
We got our work cut out for us. Too many voices of reason. Tonight it behooves us to start gunning for the leading contributors. A systematic removal of all the top posters. We need to go classic on these fools.
We can ignore Lifeline, no one's going to take him seriously after his playstyle and the WAMD event. Easy to interfere with him
We can leave hey_monkey and Natiko alone for the moment; they make good analyses, but presently, over-eagerness and pride are their respective downfalls. We can control that.
So, I'd be of the mind to NK either charisma-man SkyOdin or over-sensible LaunchpadMcQ, if not Palmer "Totally a PR" Version 1.0 himself.
...yes, Palmer might BELIEVE he's untouchable, and he very might well be to us given the context of his current social links/dangerously-placed reads against us... so now is the best time to slaughter him. I BELIEVE we can weather that inevitable superhot aftermath. We need to, while we're still at full strength. So, I will Juggernaut-crush Palmer myself Tonight.
I have little confidence in the remaining Town leaders to be able to pick up the pieces of Palmer's work afterwards. Thanks to his bouts of anger, his words can be twisted by us through a dismissive lens of temper, after he is gone.
With our limited number of personnel, only 4 of us? I highly doubt there is a Veteran in this game, balance-wise. There might be a Switcher though. There's clearly a Doctor/Bodyguard out there due to my existence, just as an Alignment Cop must exist due to our Godfather being.

Sophia, please remove me from the game before I get myself banned. Thank you. Good luck all. I'm off to try and save my bosses job. Is this specifically because of interactions with other players, or do you have another real life reason? I do have replacements available, but understand that I am bit hesitant to continuously replace the scum team like this. If you need to step away, that's fine and would be much preferable.

Post by Blargonaut on May 23, 2017 22:57:45 GMT -8
alright, time to get my soliloquy on for this Swamped rescue plot: Firstly, I need to engage Swamped in my own dialogue. We haven't interacted much in the game-thread. This is an opportunity. I'll step forward and cold-ask Swamped, "Swamped, why do you feel you are being scum-read?" This will place Swamped in my BLARG?! spotlight. This is a heightened level of scrutiny for the both of us. This is an opportunity to refresh this whole class-action case against her; clean the table with the intro of a new interrogator, thus a precarious chance to establish a new pro-Swamped narrative from the embers of the facts they've been using against you. So from there, Swamped replies, basically introduces herself again, lays out her own POV, yes; BUT, she shouldn't immediately move her vote or accuse anyone in this tentative first act. Right then, she needs to purely defend herself with her own current merits in this game, not try to shift blame... for now. But who to slowly scapegoat in her stead..? This alert level on Swamped must be peeled off like a rind, not diced skin-on for conveniently instant gratification. With WAMD gone, so has our best chance for deflection Today. Fucking assassins We simply cannot hope to shift this burden onto a low-activity poster. The general gulf in capability between her and them is too vast in mind to justify such a translation. So if acohrs dies Today, ...I need to think about those consequences There is a bold out to be taken here... Swamped may simply openly claim to be the one who targeted Lifeline (simply the truth) and as the one who triggered his Innocent Child ability (simply the truth, she Roleblocked him last Night)... Of course, we can't say that Night-action of hers was indeed a Roleblock. Yet, in an arena of Role Madness a Town-aligned Roleblocker would be a fiendishly reasonable mod inclusion so as to purposefully promote their own creator-fueled schadenfreude for fun for the players/toys in their sandbox. But in this case, I think we'd only hear cries of ROLEBLOCKER IS TRADITIONAL SCUM ROLE KILL HER and only accelerate her demise... A Town-aligned Roleblocker who openly attaches herself to the most prominent convo piece of D2 that mod-confirmed Lifeline is? Yes, claiming that position and that responsibility is mindshare suicide. Some things are better left unexplained; if we try to place her as the explanation, it would only anger the crowd further. But could there be a chance of this saving her? No, simply not. To claim Town-aligned Roleblocker who triggered Lifeline during N1, is simply ass But what if not "Roleblocker", such a conventionally scummy Role? What if she claims any kind of Power Role that triggered Lifeline? Why do I keep trying to involve Swamped in this event? Besides it being the truth, there must be some way this celebrity reveal can be used to save her. The truth can be lied! The alternative is to claim she is a Power Role yet refuse to state the details of her nature nor name her N1 target; no, that's asking to be flipped. The alternative is to claim she is a... What if she were to claim as yet another Ordinary? Double-down on the primary point of furious contention. "Scum wouldn't do that." "Would scum!Swamped risk moving into a burning house like that?" Is this real? Could she be saved by simply frustrating them with their pre-existing ire, to past the point of their desire to kill her? There is a complication, if she does this, again as I've said, she must purely defend herself with her own merits BECAUSE THAT'S ALL A POWERLESS ORDINARY CAN DO... and so as I've said, if she claims as Yet Another Ordinary in the midst of this Role Madness, there must be a scapegoat. I mean obviously, Blarg, there must be a scapegoat regardless of any permutation of this rescue plan but no, this particular claim route NEEDS a scapegoat. Only acohrs is closest... and that ground is far too shaky to build a scapegoat fortress on as-is... but he's the closest, least time needed to transport those scapegoat-building materials via bandwagons... but that soil is just too loose, he's just a low-activity dude, not like Swamped who's being attacked for reasons..? Will he do, will he do, who else... Ordinary claim, defend yourself based on your own merits, make it about what you have said with a hint of what you could've. Past the initial incredulity and rage of the audience upon hearing such a Role-claim again in the context of the current game; Swamped, you will be supported by the suggestion that the immediate pile-on of angry votes onto you due to your "Yet Another Fucking Ordinary Role-claim Again", is a bandwagon Thereby, we will advance from there to then paint and dismiss the entire body of votes against you D2, as a scum-propped bandwagon. Attention will drift eventually once the anger settles. You will come closs to being lynched but doubt will creep in after your vote count is accelerated. Because the tide must first flow in to flow out. But you mustn't waver from your Ordinary-claim, no matter what. This will be the double-edged blade you cut your way out of this... as long as you don't drop it. Yes. I think this will work Swamped, wait until after you've answered my question in-game thread. Then, you deploy this Role-claim, at your discretion. It won't be your Power that makes you valuable, no it must be the insight you may offer. It must be enticing but not curious. Melancholy at the prospect of your imminent wasted potential. Anger at people for not listening to what you said before, and what you're saying now. You need to dance on their frustration, with your own. But don't make it unpleasant like Palmer's Just Ordinary charm

Could Yet Another Ordinary Role-claim lead to a possible policy lynch?
It could
But BB and Palmer won't fight for it, because if they do, they'd be something like hypocrites, which they can be undermined with
That alone is a buffer
This is a plan
