Umbrage

About Me

The first thing you should know about me is that I do not suffer fools lightly. If I called you a dumbfuck, that is because you were being a dumbfuck. The best way to stop me from calling you a dumbfuck is to stop being a dumbfuck.

I hate Harry Potter. It's Umbrage, not Umbridge. You'd be surprised how many people make this mistake.

What else? Well, I'm Canadian, I'm a university student majoring in psychology, my favourite band is R.E.M., I play the occasional video game, I've studied ballet and other dance forms for most of my life, and I'm a Grade 9 level pianist.

My Style

I'm still developing my own unique style of play. I'm known for being very critical of other players, and have been wrongfully accused of making personal attacks. However, my attacks never extend beyond the scope of the game. I prefer to ask questions to players, hopefully trick them into revealing something incriminating. I make a conscious effort to change my style slightly each game so I cannot be meta read.

I believe the best way to play as scum is to play as you would as town, no matter the consequences for your team. I believe that bullshit, statements made without regard for truth, is anti-town. I believe aggressive tunneling is anti-town.

My Games:

Game: Newbie 1036

Role: Vanilla Townie

Result: Town Win

Thoughts: I replaced into a very scummy slot, and although I was probably doomed from the start, I didn't help matters by playing very passively. The rest of the players grew impatient with me. I ended up being quickhammered by one of the scum, which was one of the reasons that scum was lynched the following day, so I guess I was able to do some good in my short stay.

Game: Newbie 1039

Role: Town Cop

Result: Scum Win

Thoughts: I have mixed feelings about this game. I replaced in just as my slot was going to be lynched. I managed to turn the tides and start a bandwagon on the player who was leading mine. I got him lynched, and he thankfully flipped scum RB. Only to find myself dead the next day, despite my slot softclaiming. So yeah, I hate bad docs.

Game: Rivertown Mafia

Role: Vanilla Townie

Result: Replaced Out

Thoughts: God this game was horrible. There were two kinds of players, VIs, and those who refused to lynch VIs. I was the only player who was really trying to win, everyone else was just throwing insults around and spamming the thread. When I tried to get instill some order, the mod threatened to kick me out. I had had enough, and replaced out shortly after.

-Note from sorasgoof: This is totally wrong. Read the game to see the true story. :)

-Note from Umbrage: As you can see, I am very tolerant of differing opinions on my wiki. On an unrelated note, sorasgoof SUKS.

-Note from sorasgoof: As you can see, I am very tolerant of differing opinions of myself on other peoples' wikis. On an unrelated note, Umbrage is AWSUM.

-Note from Umbrage: Multiply this back and forth by a hundred, and you'll have the hell that was Rivertown Mafia.

-Note from sorasgoof: However, if you divide by zero, you'll get the anomaly known as Umbrage.

-Note from Umbrage: An entire large game filled with the likes of him. The only reason he keeps posting here is because I almost got him lynched for sitting on his ass.

-Note from sorasgoof: Ha. You were never a threat to me. Let's not talk ourselves up here. And perhaps I did "sit on my ass," but it could just be because mafia is literally at the bottom of the things I enjoy doing. Just a thought. Oh, and I didn't ragequit the game. So...

-Note from Umbrage: Really? Then why do you feel the need to be the last person to comment?

Game: Mutiny on the High Seas

Role: Scum Role Cop

Result: Scum Win

Thoughts: The town was fairly weak, and we totally had them fooled. I pulled off some excellent distancing with my partner, AurorusVox. In lylo, I sacrificed myself, letting my partner smargaret claim watcher with a guilty on me and a townie, a maneuver that luckily worked and led us to victory. I figured I was dead that day anyway, but I still can't help but wonder what would've happened if I had claimed instead. Oh well, it was a great game, not perfect, but still pretty good for my first scum game, I feel.

Game: Call of Cthulhu 5 Player Mafia

Role: Suicidal Hunter

Result: Town Win

Thoughts: My first Marathon Game. Not sure how I won. Most interesting part was when I had to hammer myself to trigger my revenge kill before I was shot. Yeah, it was a fun role.

Game: Call of Cthulhu Mafia II

Role: Cult Leader

Result: Town Win

Thoughts: This game is a blur to me, it took place right after the prequel, and by that time all my brain power was used up. I shouldn't play late at night. I remember yelling a lot, and mixing up the players' names. Apologies to everyone with whom I played.

Game: Executioner Mafia

Role: Vanilla Townie

Result: Modkilled

Thoughts: If someone prematurely hammers a VT, then kills, and admits to killing an unclaimed PR, do you think they should be lynched? I thought yes. But the fucking idiots in this game opted instead to go for the easy newbie lynch. My protests were in vain. After I was dead, you'd would think they'd listen to what confirmed town had said, but no, they mislynched a third time and lost the game. Morons.
