but could be worse - I could have had time to answer and clear myself before Joth stepped in

Fwiw, even if I got here before Joth, I wouldnt have answered because it would have felt like a very unfair way to gain a lot of town cred.

These statements seem to be a contradiction.

Hmm I think like most other people, I'm getting somewhat of a scum-vibe from Eevee.

What do you want me to say? I'm station-aligned. Kind of meh Dsell became almost obvtown because of something like this, but could be worse - I could have had time to answer and clear myself before Joth stepped in (well handled btw). Me claiming town was obviously just the running joke from blitz, also I didn't even remember what the exact wording was, not like I read my pm's that carefully. I still don't know what's my flavor name for example (because I've never seen any star trek so the name wouldn't mean anything to me).

Firstly, why is it bad if Dsell has become obvTown? If he's Town, surely that's a good thing. I also agree with Robz that it seems a bit strange that you wouldn't remember what the wording was. For me, at least, I saw "Station-Aligned", and it took me a moment to realise that couldn't mean anything other than the equivalent to Town. I even checked the OP to see if it was there, and there were enough "station"s to make it obvious that Station meant Town. If the PM said "You're Town (which btw we're calling Station-Aligned)" then you could just see the Town and move on, but because Town wasn't mentioned, you had to see Station-Aligned and interpret that as Town, which I feel makes it harder to forget at least the Station part. And although I agree with you that I can't remember my flavour name without checking, I think saying that you "still don't know it" was a strange way of wording it.

and liopoil, well i think I'm just suspicious of him because hes new and when I was new I was scum.

Ha ha, I like your logic.

Also, I guess we're not accepting "mom salon" for mcmcs.

On the Town/Station thing, I considered PMing joth about it, but I thought "Station" appeared enough in the OP for it not to matter that much. I got a null-read from Eevee's first post, that seems like something Eevee might do regardless. Town-read from Dsell of course, but certainly not obvTown. I think it could be possible for scum to have guessed from the OP that it wouldn't be called Town (what does Town mean when you're on a space ship?), or they might have been told we were "Station-aligned". But I think the most likely explanation is that Dsell is Town and joth saying "I'm not saying if scum know you're Station-aligned" was attempting to give us a way out of giving Dsell obvTown status (regardless of his actual alignment).
Also, nullread from Cuzz asking joth to fix it, I think that was good sportsmanship and could have come from any alignment.

9005
Yeah I was reading Galz' argument on you and thinking I'd probably be convinced by it (I obviously knew you were scum, but still).

Also, FWIW, the "Don't put me on L - 1" thing was just a safety net. Just don't lynch me before I've claimed.

Oh, because if I'm "Hated" then it's less bad losing me than someone else, I get it.

It's been less than five hours! hmmmm.... so, since it's bad if Jimmmm is in the end, hated, and station, then we should be more inclined to lynch him. He could still be scum. we'd also be able to get him to claim, although who knows if that helps scum or station more... I'm not saying we should lynch him, but he is the least risky person to lynch because the consequence of a mislynch is not at bad.

Why do you want me to claim? If it was good for me to claim day 1, I would have done so already, or would do so of my own accord. Don't be pushing for claims day 1, if a wagon starts on me then hopefully it's because people think I'm scum, NOT because you want me to claim. Also, can you explain what you mean when you say I'm the least risky person to lynch?

This may be true in general but I just want to emphasize this now: do not lynch me without giving me a chance to claim. If at any point in the game you want to put me on even L - 1, instead, announce your intent to do so and at my next availability I will claim. I will be pissed if you lynch me while I'm away.

Hi all! It feels good to finally be Town (well, you know, "Station-aligned") again, and in fact playing again. This should be fun.

Vote: mom salon to see if it works.

9011
It wasn't 100% scum ploy, I was sincere I want you all to like me, I just figured winning was the best way to do that.
We do like you, mom salon. I also want to repeat how impressed I was by your play as a first timer.

So mcmc is officially mom salon now?

9012
Hey this thing is over, what do you know? Congrats to Eevee, shraeye and mcmcs.

Variants and Fan Cards / Re: Greed (Treasure)
« on: January 04, 2013, 01:26:24 am »
I think any card with a -Buy has to have at least one of the following:

-A way around buying, eg Remodel/Workshop-type, VP tokens etc.
-Another option that provides +Buys. Maybe something like Choose 1: +$3, -1 Buy or +$1, +2 Buys. It'd probably have to be non-terminal too.
-A duration effect. Give up on your buy this turn to have a mega-turn next turn.

Maybe there are more things you can add to this list, but you get the point.
I think the problem is, in some games -1 Buy will be huge, but in some it will be almost meaningless, so it'd be super hard (maybe impossible) to balance a card like this in general.

I hope you're all enjoying your winter!

It's currently 41 degrees C (106 degrees F) in Melbourne. That's bloody hot. Luckily I can come home to an air conditioned house.

This game should be pretty Newbie friendly, with a completely open setup. Multiple scumteams is a little bit funky I guess, but should be pretty easy to get a hold of. I'm not too sure how Newbie friendly joth's game will be, I'd check with him.

I would want to play, but I have a lot of stuff I need to do irl in the next couple of .  So I could either be very inactive for the first bit, I could not play, or if it doesn't start for a week or two, I could play.  I would need a little bit more information (sorry if this was mentioned in this thread, I haven't looked through the whole thing).

if you don't make it into this game, check out this one instead. It will start a little bit after jot's

Cheers.

Actually, Dsell makes a good point, and cayvie was quick to jump on my wagon (then again, why wouldn't you be in this game).

So I'm going to Vote: cayvie

Here was my original PM by Morgrim (I'm assuming I can do this in a bastard game):

Quote from: Morgrim7
Ok, here you go.

You have been selected by Morgrim7. your choices of book character, Dominion Card, ect have been ignored. your role is this:

You may choose one rule. That rule will change.

P.S. you are also a doctor.

Alignment will follow once roles have been sent.

I noticed long after this that my alignment actually didn't follow. I pointed that out in-thread (#680) and received this from Volt:

Quote from: Voltgloss
nothing Morgrim does (or doesn't do) will surprise me any more.

I'm sayin' you're Town.

So basically how can I be scum and not know it? I'd have to be in a QT with other scum.

So Eevee, Arch, who do we go for out of Dsell and cayvie?

With a fine display of hedging:
Vote: Dsell
Vote: cayvie
