Rules (adapted from Fire Emblem RTUs) - Votes need some explanation regarding their gameplay performance to be counted. If somebody else said what you want to already, quote them explicitly. You can troll a bit, but no CATERPIE HAS STRING SHOT 10/10. +/- ≤1 point extra regarding personality/appearance is encouraged, but no more. If you exercise your bias privileges, please do so explicitly. - Votes are made out of 10. You cannot rate a pokemon above 10 or below 0. - The rating topic will be updated whenever I feel like it, but I will try to allow at least 24 hours for each topic. They will generally be updated at around 10 PM EST. - A pokemon being inferior relative to another pokemon does not explicitly reduce their rating. - We are rating ingame performance only, up until the Elite 4 is beaten the first time. - Evolution lines get condensed, so treat Bulbasaur/Ivysaur/Venasaur all as one pokemon. Weedle/Kakuna/Beedrill: 2.44 Ekans/Arbok: 2.57 Rattate/Raticate: 3.20 Pidgey/Pidgeotto/Pidgeot: 5.00 Caterpie/Metapod/Butterfree: 5.21 Sandshrew/Sandslash: 5.86 Pikachu/Raichu: 5.94 Spearow/Fearow: 6.21 Charmander/Charmeleon/Charizard: 7.80 Bulbasaur/Ivysaur/Venasaur: 8.25 Nidoran-F/Nidorina/Nidoqueen: 8.58 Squirtle/Wartortle/Blastoise: 9.36 NIDOKING. This guy is a boss. He's Nidoqueen with less HP, Defence, and Sp. Defence in exchange for more Atk, Sp. Atk, and Spd. This is good, because we catch the Nidoroyals to be our Jack of All Trades fighters, not our tanks. 9.5/10

8.58 for the QUEEN.

Well, it's possible that they're vanilla goons, but considering any role can be any alignment, even town ninja and scum doctor, I think it's stupid to lie. Unless you're simply saying that you find one of them scummy, not that you think one of them is fakeclaiming in addition.

I'm the only unknown on purpose. In fact, your last post advised me to remain unknown. Why are you suddenly finding it disconcerting that I haven't revealed anything about my role? If it makes you feel any better, Goodbye Elieson. I am not the dayvig, which is why I think we don't have one at all. As for the Prims post that made me reconsider my opinion that Proto was scum, http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=33440&view=findpost&p=2033946 http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=33440&view=findpost&p=2033961 http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=33440&view=findpost&p=2033982

One needs only to look at Haze's reaction to my poem to see the underlying themes that everyone fails to catch. He said that my poem devolved quickly into a scientist joke- but why can't Inuit be scientists too? My poem is about minorities challenging preconceived notions and stereotypes, a theme I begin to build in the first line where I remind people that Eskimo is considered, at least where I come from, a derogatory term. And when I cross out the word chemist to replace it, that's to show that yes, the joke is about chemists, but to tell people that just as Taffy is an Inuit before he is a chemist, this joke is about Inuits before it is about chemists. Man, if I'd put as much effort into the poem as I am into trolling, I would definitely have won.

First off, that post about being more confident was directed towards Rothene, not you. You ninja'd me. As for my change from Proto to Blitz, it was three reasons mainly. The first was that last post he made where he dropped off a vote without any reasoning and then announced he wouldn't be back before phase end. That was dumb, and a scummy thing for him to do even if he flipped town. Secondly, while I initially thought that Proto's reaction to his impending lynch was scummy, Prims's point made sense. And finally, I thought that lynching Blitz, who had been more active, would result in more information to the town than lynching Proto, a player who had been mainly inactive, would. Almost all the votes for Proto were for the same reason (the nolynch vote) meaning that more than just scum were thinking that and analyzing those particular voting trends upon Proto's flip would therefore yield little.

Basically, why are you agreeing with half of Prims and Manix's posts despite finding them both scummy? Your points against Manix are the ones Prims, the person you think is the scummiest, is making, and your points against Prims were mainly what Manix was saying. You're taking Manix's side against Prims, Prims's side against Manix, and simultaneously saying they're both scummy. What? You've been sheeping almost as much as Rothene has, except you're not clueless or inactive like he is.

Be confident. If you think that I'm scummy, then vote for me, and try to get other people to agree that I'm scummy. Maybe it'll work and maybe it won't, but don't just follow whichever wagon you think seems best. That's not helping the town in any way.

And the scum also know that whatever two roles they got are gone. Or if either of them are Vanilla, they know what one of the roles that must exist is.

I suppose, but consider that Hooker and Redirector are gone as well. I think you misread my post or maybe I didn't explain myself clearly in it. What I was trying to say was that if we wait until the very end to vote, we'll have less voting trends to work with. I was actually advocating analyzing voting history, and arguing against not voting early. The reason I myself didn't vote early was because of Higurashi mafia where I almost got lynched D1 for overreacting to one of Elieson's posts and voting for him. But I realized that letting that affect my play was dumb, but it was too late at that point. Does that make more sense? By this logic, almost all townie behaviour can be explained away by them being scum trying very hard to seem town.

But mine was clearly better.

BLIND SOYO DRAFT. WOOHOO.

While I can agree that Prims has done some weird things, I think Elieson is scummier. Despite having posted quite a bit after the wagon on him started, he hasn't done much to respond to the points that people are making against him. A lot of what he's saying isn't really answering the questions, or is sidestepping them somehow.

Troubadours were actually wandering bards. You should allow Bards to promote into Troubadours, where they are mounted refreshers, and change the name of the mounted unpromoted staffbot to something else.

We were talking, and then everyone left... Bizz, why do you find Prims scummy? And do you think he's scummier than Elieson, or would you still go for an Elie lynch first?

I don't think that's really necessary. Asking everyone to prove that they are not a role helps scum narrow down which roles people actually are.

Elieson, are you claiming vanilla? I think this means that everyone except Bizz, Prims, and I have claimed/softclaimed it, which makes me think it's unlikely that we even have a dayvig. Unless someone is lying, but as roles and alignments are completely separate, I can't see a real reason why.

Needs more Treecko. Well, I wish you luck!

Technically, Snike was town. He/Kay just decided to side with the cool kids mafia.

I vote Bizz for 2nd MVP for mafia for giving the whole scumteam a doublevote on her way out.

My first pairings will be Serge and then Tiki, but if I like the game enough I might go for all the supports like Othin has plans on doing.

I pointed it out like 10 minutes ago so you probably did. CURSE YOU REIN.

You are no fun.

gg town I take full responsibility for the mafia win because I pointed out that mafia can force a nolynch today.

Basically getting any Azure support up to S with one girl and then doing any another support with him. His supports with females have him flirting with them, and his supports with males have him convincing them to go flirting with him.
