Open 432: Robo's PYP (Game Over)

[Robocopter87]

• WELCOME TO MY PYP. NOW PLEASE DIE!
  
  You are in the madman's house. Oh yes. This will be wonderful. I love this, Robo thought.
  
  "Please please, come in. Sit down at the table."
  
  13 people follow Robo into his house.
  
  For many it will be the last time they see sunlight.
  
  Robo has everyone sit down at the table and he runs into the kitchen. For a few brief seconds you take in your surroundings. It is a weird place to be, with the pictures upside-down and crooked. The table wasn't rectangular at all, it was a lightning bolt shaped table with an odd looking pig figurine in the center.
  
  The chairs were surprisingly comfortable.
  
  Then he walked back in. He jumped onto the table and screamed, "CAPPUCCINOS FOREVER" How did he know that you loved cappuccino? Something was very off here. Everybody seemed to like cappuccinos, and everyone drank.
  
  At once you felt the effects. You became drowsy and confused. You looked up and Robo was three inches from your face. He leaned over and you tried to stop him but he kissed your forehead. "Nighty night." His smile. though wonderful, was the scariest thing you had ever seen.
  
  Then the world faded...

How valid is this tell if it's not mentioned?

[friday-13th]

not likely to say, but there's a 2/13 chance of it being true lol

[Scigatt]

not likely to say, but there's a 2/13 chance of it being true lol

Where did you get 2/13?

[Slandaar]

@Scigatt: why do you dislike my first post?

@absta: Why did I need to vote?

Shamrock ignoring the 'big' issue is the scummiest thing in this thread
VOTE: Shamrock

[absta101]

So we learn more about what kind of motivations you have. Not voting denies us that information.

Hmm...pointing out a questionable town read on yourself in the RVS, what's not to not like?

...Damn, that sentence was awkward.

Tbh, it wasn't that bad at all, but at that stage it was enough to vote on.

[Slandaar]

So we learn more about what kind of motivations you have. Not voting denies us that information.

So, your motivations are to vote conf town?

What is more useful, my first post or a 'I vote x because lolz' Which shows motivation more clearly?

Explain questionable in more detail.

Explain why you are actually voting me quoting a post and voting while saying 'Well actually it wasn't that bad but its RVS lol' is not a reason.

Do you believe I believe my first post? do you think I think it actually makes me conftown? what was the purpose of my post?

1. I vote people I find suspicious.
2. I believe that in general a post containing a vote is more useful in finding out about what the person is after. Though I won't deny that your post has somehow achieved the same purpose.

Let me ask you something before I elaborate. What was the purpose behind your first post?

[Slandaar]

Absta do you agree I am conf town because I posted first in thread?

If you do not understand why I made my post, why did you vote me for not voting and not in relation to my reasoning?

1.I will confess that I can't say why self-reporting a questionable town tell in jest is scummy, but it did bother me on a gut level. I was trying my best given the one post before my vote.
2.I quoted that post because that's the post you asked the question in.
3.I don't know if you believe it, do you?

Your questioning after the vote does seem town, though.

Unvote
