Mini 1698: MDCXCVIII [C'est fini!]

[Boonskiies]

Sorry, that just really irks me. This happens far too often, which shows that I don't have one fucking playstyle. God damn.

Stop cussing O_O

[WoodyWoodpecker]

Every game of mine is 180 from the last.

So than every other game is the same?

I just literally play however I feel fit. It also depends on how my life is going. I literally have nothing going on right now, and I'm not even in that many games. I literally just refresh my mafia scum page every 5 minutes. I always do when I'm at home doing nothing, with nothing planned, and I've been super sick the past like week, so I've had much more time than usual to actually play the game. Plus, I'm liking my color coded tier list, and I can't really do stuff like that in games I don't keep up on. I usually am in like 6 games at a time, so of course this game is going to be different than what "FA" is used to, even though him and I really haven't played too many games, and the games we HAVE played together have been different anyways! Freshwater Frenzy was a game where I completely changed my playstyle, nothing was said about me there!

I just want Day 1 to be over; I hate Day 1.

I think I agree with boon's assessment of FA's most recent slew of posts. Something about the way he frames Woody/boon's interaction feels off. He just says that he doesn't like them because of the exchange without any further explanation, but it seems strange that the first thing that would come to mind after such a heated back-and-forth exchange would be that they both become scummier for having been involved. It just feels like an excuse to vote Woody and lead in to a Boon fos tomorrow. He talks about information from the lynch in the case that we get scum, but lynching scum is almost always going to give useful information.

I feel like taking this argument and framing it as "there's probably scum amongst the two of them" is a fairly likely scum tactic. And I don't see it as being a likely reaction to the argument as town. So. This is further strengthened to some degree by my still thinking both of them are town.

I also have a good initial impression of Annarchy's (Stubbs replacement) opening.

Unvote

VOTE: FA
Still have a (decently) strong scumread on the NE slot, contingent of course on spicer's posting. But my votes have been dead ends for pretty much this entire day, and I think I'm happy with this vote right now.

I don’t like the exchange because it completely shut out any scum hunting in its entirety and changed the focus of the game from finding scum to useless vitriolic nonsense. What is unclear about that?

Then I gave further reasons for my vote on pecker. And you are damn right if pecker flips town I will suspect boon, he is a scum read after all. I don’t see how that is anti-town.

It was also called opportunistic which is asinine – it was opportunistic insofar as it was a direct reaction to the way the players were behaving. I guess voting for a direct scum claim would be ‘opportunistic’ as well.

Vitriol is a fine reason to dislike it in the sense of dislike as in thinking it's a bad thing. It isn't in the sense of dislike as in thinking it's a scummy thing, which looks like how you were using the word "dislike." You call them scummy for engaging in such vitriol, with absolutely no justification of why being so vitriolic is scummy. I'm not criticizing any other reasons you gave towards Woody, just that.

I'm not calling you anti-town (at least, in my mind, anti-town is a different thing from scummy, anti-town means contrary to the interest of the town whereas scummy means indicative of scum). I'm calling it scummy because from a scum perspective it sets you up to have an easy route to follow tomorrow and I don't think equating vitriol to scum is a likely town reaction.

Will get to Boon's outstanding question in ~an hour.

Me too

Just go ahead and Lynch me, I'm over this game anyway

To answer Boon's question: I see Anna's play so far as townish. I think she's exhibited genuine lines of reasoning. I think from what I've seen you have a tendency to decry anything that disagrees with you or attacks you as lies. I honestly can't remember anyone who has attacked you at all that you haven't responded with some kind of mutual animosity (Woody, FA, now Anna). I'm probably forgetting some case where you have but that's really a bad habit if you're town.

[GrayFoxxxx]

I want everyone to get caught up, but once that happens, we're beginning to run out of time. It would be good for everyone to think of a few people they'd be ok lynching and start zeroing in on some players that could actually be lynched.

We already did
You implosion or bulb (and for whatever reason FA)

Anyone notice how everyone thinks my early scum picks are scum. Not sure if I'm proud or worried.

[implosion]

Another note, my townread on dragonspawn is deteriorating. He's pretty much been coasting since five days ago around post 200. He's given a lot of opinions but has given almost no reasoning.

[pisskop]

Dragon is usually obnoxiously town when he's town.

[dragonspawn]

Well give me some reason to comment and I will say more. I'm not in the mood to get involved in pointless bickering.

[GrayFoxxxx]

I can relate to this.

[Boonskiies]

I'm curious as to why Anna unvoted me?

[implosion]

Well give me some reason to comment and I will say more. I'm not in the mood to get involved in pointless bickering.

I asked you a question. Are you actually reading the thread?

[implosion]

Well give me some reason to comment and I will say more. I'm not in the mood to get involved in pointless bickering.

I can relate to this.

I'd be okay with it

if I hadn't literally given him that reason earlier today.

Idk if he thinks it'd be pointless bickering to answer my question or what, but an answer to that question will help me read him.

[dragonspawn]

And if I wasn't pushing for your lynch I might care how you read me.

But as I hope to have you on rope and be free of one scum by the end of the day, why would I care about you reading me?

[implosion]

Because you don't know for a fact that I'm scum if you are town?
Because I might not be lynched today?
Because it's common courtesy to answer questions?
Because my response might help you read me better, either solidifying your scumread on me or losing faith in it?
Because my response might help you convince others to vote for me?
Because it might help others read you?
Because being generally unwilling to discuss things is harmful to the town?
Because you don't want to be read as scum for avoiding my question?

[implosion]

Can someone who dragonspawn has a townread on, and who has a townread on me (or doesn't), please do me a favor and directly ask dragonspawn to answer my question?

Thank you!

[Boonskiies]

Dragon, are you caught up on the thread?

[dragonspawn]

Yes

[Boonskiies]

Thought so.
