Not scum. IF anything my rashness and alleged rule breaking would only prove that I am town but you're too far in denial land to see that.

Negative utility is that it's existence is a net loss. Like a miller, or a role that is compulsive, or in general disrupts the night game.

Yeah im in denial land cause there's no reason why a townie would deliberately break the rules like that, especially given the reasoning you used is completely flawed.

You can soft claim, hard claim, or even full claim and idgaf, I don't believe for a second you are town, let alone a PR.

This is because you play in black and white and don't see the world for the grey that it actually is.

Thanks. Yeah my role isn't one but some would say my play can be.

On that note I want to thank RC, you helped me find my old playstyle that I had been trying to find and couldn't. My games this year have sucked and I've been bored and disinterested, until this game. I'm actually having fun again. Thanks for being obvscum on page 1

Like I said earlier, town has no reason to be mad at the mod for posting that role pm if its in the game. It doesn't hurt town and only gives town a marginal bit of information. Without it they wouldn't know what kind of investigative role was in the game, but they probably assume their was one as most games do.

I also said it makes no sense for even the gunsmith to be mad cause it doesn't let scum know who has the role.

Your reaction wasn't town as regardless of your role, that info being posted has no bearing to the game.

I've seen scum fake outrage over things like that before, I'm pretty sure I've faked outrage before. That's what it felt like you were doing as like explained, you as town should have no reason to react like you did. Black/white/gray/whatever, your reaction made no sense to me

Jake: are you flagrantly trying to use out of game information, going so far as to screenshot a PM from a list mod, and posting it in this thread? Because I'm not exactly sure what you are accusing oversoul of, but the last two pages where you have had a tantrum over it has been extremely disruptive at best. Not to mention, I'm pretty certain you've broken several site rules.

I disagree that I have broken any rules but feel free to report me and let the mod decide. If me posting a pic was somehow against rules then I will take the hit. I don't think it is though.

Not a joke, hammer this.

My role is literally strictly less valuable than a Vanilla Townie.

Better than putting up a bunch of people to have to claim.


Yes, let's vote RC. This is getting ridiculous.

In case anyone's forgotten the gross inconsistencies in RC's game, let's go back to the beginning -- and I know we all want to go back there, in this game, sorry about this -- but after leaning hard and with absolute conviction against Jake, RC picks up on MattP's first read and flip-flops immediately:

In post 52, RadiantCowbells wrote:MattP's points are very solid.

Further, scum calling 1v1s involving their scumpartners TvT is very common. And look at JFSF's response.

1. I am
2. Yes I actually did.


It's just... off. I feel like Bulge could have been coaching his partner there.

And if we are both town, calling it TvT now could be a grab for towncred.

I don't like it, and I really don't like how it reflects on JFSF either.

VOTE: The Bulge


But it's not just inconsistency.

RC is constantly resorting to emotional manipulation, either through use of language or self-flagellation, in what I see as an attempt to justify his grotesque swings as well as eliciting some measure of sympathy for the woobie.

In post 124, RadiantCowbells wrote:How about you fuck off and go lose your games somewhere else.

People like you are the kind who lose games then cry after game "oh I knew who the scum were" but don't push their reads at all.
In post 394, RadiantCowbells wrote:Like there's Pisskop and Elyse being useful and a huge whack of town being fucking worthless and I don't even know if Elyse is town or not because she's been town MVP as scum before.

This game is a catastrophe of worthless players.
In post 353, RadiantCowbells wrote:Did Grimmjow really win a best town performance?
In post 386, RadiantCowbells wrote:This town is mentally impaired.

Just lynch me, I've had it with this game.


Yes, just lynch him. Please.

In the last few days he's tried to build a wagon on EPM, without any success, so he goes back to that Day One target, The Bulge. Because the Bulge finally has the temerity to participate, after being gone for a while?

In post 658, RadiantCowbells wrote:Yeah well EPM is lurking as fuck all game and now especially with pressure.

Why are more people not voting this?
In post 687, RadiantCowbells wrote:Anyone noticed that EPM's really not going anywhere despite no one really townreading the slot, and Oversoul keeps looking for excuses to jump off it?
In post 695, RadiantCowbells wrote:Bulge has been absentee for days.
In post 703, RadiantCowbells wrote:So you just admitted that you were reading the thread, but not posting while you lurked away pressure.

VOTE: The Bulge


At this point in the game, I think going after lurkingh-ish players is too easy.

If there's one thing I agree with RC on, it's that this game is a slog, not much fun to read through. There's some really immature social interactions, and RC is one of the biggest instigators of them. (Sorry Jake and Oversoul, but your recent argument doesn't help anything.) It makes sense that not a lot of people are chiming in regularly, regardless of alignment. It's deeply unpleasant.

So with that in mind...

I'll hammer Jake or EPM if they get voted up. Prod dodging until that happens.

In post 934, RadiantCowbells wrote:It's 4 days to go with 2 votes max on other wagons and it'll be way too easy for scum to knock out the smart players and have me as an easy lynch somewhere down the line.

I agree Elyse is probably scum this game.

Just vote me.


Please, let's put RC out of his misery, and ours.

(And seriously, a vote for Matt?!?!)

The discussion of the discussion of ongoing games inevitably steers the game back to the discussion of ongoing games. As such, the game will stay locked until the skittles are clear on the Jake/OS situation.

I considered forbidding in-thread meta-ongoing game discussion, but this seems a better solution for now.

He hasn't been playing well so far this game. I've only been impressed by a single one of his posts much earlier on.

@Bob

Can the deadline be stalled until 2 replacements are found? Those two spots are kind of integral to discussion
