Kinda interesting that you and Aristo have such different takes on my alignment when you both had the same idea.

Just sayin'

Yeah, scum likes to bit back like that. Especially when their attempt to placate fails.

There's 17 other players in the game besides me, and it's not like half of them are voting you so I don't see why you're so worried about my read of you.

I am worried you are caught in a deathtunnel on town, that's why! But whatever. I'll just not talk to you then.

This is exactly the unproductive, clutter shit I was trying to avoid!

Personally, I think this post is a crock.

1) There's no practical reason for giving up multiple shots at PR's in favor of stopping scum from being tracked one night.

The reason strongman is different is because it can overrule active protection on a target. It's worth keeping out of scum hands. If I hadn't used my points on strongman, they'd have likely gone into double roleblocker for the same reason, and I'd have been far more likely to believe the claim if it had been that over ninja.

2) It's easy to "me too" for town points when you see somebody else do something risky and get cred for it.

The weird part is how I am Innocent claimed to have the idea

right after the original claim.

I don't think the ninja and/or strongman all ins here are particularly alignment indicative for now.

Cause on the one hand, it's entirely possible they both did just happen to all in on the pro mafia roles.

On the other, the mafia could have coordinated to all in on the rolls and not cross over each other.

I'd say it's a pretty null claim, strong in neither direction.

@house

You would have to be the only one who all inned on strongman if you got the role, otherwise neither person would get the action.

I am Innocent claimed to have thought of it,
but decided against it
. Even if we assume it's true, there's no real point in saying this unless you wanted to look more town without actually contributing.

It doesn't actually claim, it doesn't stop the auction cop from looking at your results and thinking they're funky.

It's not really anti-town either, as it doesn't give mafia useful information. But it certainly seems weird.
The underlines were not the case, go back and look at my posts.

I spent all my points bidding on the role even though I'm town just to keep it out of scum hands.
Is this serious? I considered doing the same thing (and announcing it post 1) but worried that multiple town might do this and waste a lot of cumulative town points.

I now see why imp didn't want strategy talk in the sign up forum.

I think knowing this information for fact will change night strategies. Maybe even day strategies.
Yes. You did say that you decided against it later. "I considered doing the same" "but worried"

I feel like voting you again.

UNVOTE:

VOTE: I am Innocent

You not only lied, you're also being way too dodgy on whether you are the other strongman bidder. I don't like it.

So, Lynch all Liars now? That rarely catches scum.
And he didn't lie. Nor is he being difficult.
He alluded to an answer and was ambiguous purposely. He had a protown reason for it.
