I got that wagon rolling. Your point?

There's nothing in his recent posts that make me think town. You?
I'm trying to reason out why he would provide a clarification for a read for you, but he's not really shedding much light on the situation. Also, when someone practically posts a wall in every post when it could simply be said in a sentence, it kind of gets irritating to have to read and that's fogging up my judgement a bit of my read on him.

First of all, what is TL:DR? Should I know that?

Second @axle, I couldn't really understand post 126 too well due to the massive amounts of information that didn't have to do with the question, but 128 did clear it up for me. However, it doesn't matter if I understand your answer so much as if 3dice understands your answer.

Third @3dice, post 128 is probably the best explanation of that statement that you are going to get. I didn't find it that meaningful. If you see otherwise feel free to press on with this line of questions, otherwise I would probably just give up on it

Waiting on Kyndy and Mallow to come back.
So Bulba is there absolutely nothing I can convince you that I am town?

Also Axle, just post smaller posts. Or at least try to. The walls make me want to stay away from reading them.

also note I dont care at all that you were talking about one occasion but in contrast reissebach noted two occasions he thought you were defending me,
I am asking which is the occasion you thought you were defending me.

You opened the game many ideas and thoughts to help town. They weren't as confusing as a couple recent ones. I thought you were town and still do. I am firm on that situation unless you fail. To me asking questions and why people help you seem townie to me so I will trust that you are town.

While that is a plan, and an explanation of why you thought I was town...


That does not explain what you defended me from?

If you are town.

Axle, would you include a TL:DR at the end of each or your posts please?
In many ways...what I posted was the TLDR.... :o Try asking about specific sentences in my first post... Most of them were part of a purpose/intent and had long thing behind them. even "rats...." had a larger message it made.
but I will try anyway

You have posts in the thread, and mostly I like them (one bit was uggh.)

You are VLA on weekends. A weekend is coming. before your last post before the weekend... (hopefully?)

TLDR:
@Doogal
I have expressed clear desire to lynch one of
"Vote to lynch OkaPoka or Vote to Lynch reissebach."
today.
if you were
required
to choose between just those two, with the information you have now, which would you choose?

CAVEAT: an indication of that will in no way indicates you wouldn't prefer to lynch someone else that you've been keeping to yourself a bit. (me keeping your options open if you still want/choose to)

TBMK currenly you are at FOS oka and everyone else is at ? (kinda dont care about your town reads if any, I got my own)
I dont understand "and Reis is what in poker is called a "polarizing hand". He's either got the nuts or it's a stone cold bluff."
can I have something that is NOT TLDR.... (aka more words)(what's the bluff? as you see it. )
Google is not my friend: when I looked it up I only find polarising plays made within hands? (poker is not my game)

What are your reasons for lynching me? Besides advocating for your lynch in the case that you are town, have I made any anti-town actions that you would care to point out?

@Axle: In poker, Texas Hold Em specifically, there are times when a player is chasing a hand, lets say they have 4 clubs and need a 5'th club to make a straight. The final card comes and they do not make their hand, but the 5 cards on the board are somewhat connected (maybe a possible straight has just come in). So, that player chasing the hand will make a huge bet in order to have everybody else fold. This backfires when one of the other players was chasing as well and just made their hand. This move is used so often that you can successfully do it and get paid off when you hit your hand. You make your straight on the final card and bet huge. Opponent has 2 pair and would not call a huge bet when their is a possible straight on the board, but thinks you are bluffing and calls and you make a ton. That's a polarizing bet in poker.

As for the Oka/Reis question, I'm actually leaning toward lynching Reis at the moment. I think Oka just panicked when the pressure was put on him and the unwillingness to get off him just didn't seem right. I guess I would expect some resistance if he was indeed scum. That being said, that implies that the scum team is a competent team that knows what they are doing. And, since this is a newbie game, I should probably get rid of that misconception.

how can you be claiming I am dodging the question when you also previously claim I cleared it up for you. (aka I have already answered the question as you understand it)

Its not my question though, if 3dice wants a better answer, then I think you should try to come up with a better answer rather than claiming you already have and changing the subject.

And also you said you want to lynch me before that happened, so there must be something else unless this is just an omgus

On a different note, that last post was perfect :)

Given that you asked this, which shows a survivalistic mindset over one that wants to scumhunt, I'm going to say no.

Mallow and I are the only ones on the wagon. Everyone else is calling Oka scum, but refusing to vote him.

But if you thought his answer clarified things, then you obviously don't think he was dodging the question, since he clearly answered it. So which is it? Did he dodge or not dodge?

@bulba

He did not dodge the original question in my opinion, but he did refuse to clarify when 3dice asked him to, and dodged all attempts at continuing the line of questioning and why is it scummy to ask for the reasons when someone says they want to lynch me?

I don't think he was dodging anything, rather asking for clarification. And according to you, he was trying to clarify. But suddenly, when 3dice is saying he's not and dodging, you change your tune to match 3dice's. So which is it? Was he clear or was he not? Was he dodging or was he not? You can't have it both ways.

Because it's very self-conscious and shows that your mind is not on finding scum but on trying to blend in and not look suspicious.
