I get that a lot, actually. I'm not the most intelligent guy ever and some people think I'm so stupid it must be fake, so you're not the first to assume that. I'm glad you're taking time out for me even though I'm not on your level.

Don't read too much into it. It's mostly the length of your post. I haven't had eight different things to discuss about any other post. Short posts are totally in. Yours was sooo 2009.
I'm not gonna bother quoting the rest. Numbers make it obvious what I'm responding to.
1. I already explained why math's vote on me wasn't a sheep vote and the rest sounds more like familiarity with titus than anything else. But I don't see us agreeing on this read and I do see what your reasoning is now so I'm satisfied with this one.
2. He was being sorted in the pregame thread more than anything if I remember right. That's where I started townreading him. And I do absolutely believe that your comments make him a NK target. It's possible that that wasn't your intent, but I'm not so sure I buy that. You've played the experience card already and with that experience, you should know the consequence of a comment like that.
3. Their role PMs were posted. All you had to do was read them and you'd see that both Bins' and Nero's teams were two player teams.
I don't think I can sort Almost to be perfectly honest. His scum game is flawless. He had me fooled throughout all of WWE mafia and it wasn't by accident. The things he did were by design to get people to town read him. He appeared to be legitimately scum hunting and strategizing in ways to truly benefit town. I don't trust myself to figure him out. So you're right. I'm really not focusing on him at this point. I'm observing, but I don't think I'll learn anything by interacting with him any more than I am so far.
4. This is easy. It boils down to free time. Today, I stayed home and sat on my ass. My wife is working. My daughter took a four hour nap and both kids went to bed pretty early. I don't have cable. I had nothing better to do.
On Wednesday when Radiant did his thing with Bins, I was busy having lunch with my family and then working on my fantasy baseball teams. Also don't like dealing with Radiant or personal issues inside of mafia games.
As far as Gamma, again, my big push on him was BEFORE he claimed. I entered the thread with a vote on him.
What you didn't address is that I said your town read on me made no sense. I don't think it's a genuine read. You called me town but then called the Gamma wagon scum driven. I was one of the first people to push Gamma. That's not consistent.
5 Try the rules post? Other than that, it's probably come up about five times.
And again, it's not "common sense" that you are town for killing scum when there are multiple teams. If someone claims the Nero kill, are you going to townread them because it's common sense? I doubt it. I'd probably vote them on the spot to be honest. Why is your shot any different? Because it was done in an unorthodox way in a bastard game? No. That's not a pass.
Also don't tell me I haven't done shit. I'm putting time and effort into this game any chance I get which is a hell of a lot more than most people can say these days. One of the most insulting things you can say to me in a game is that I'm not trying because I always try. Always. I think about these games in the shower, at work, and while I'm trying to sleep. Don't tell me my reads are shit unless you know the setup.
Why haven't I looked for your buddy? You haven't flipped scum. That's not how you play mafia. You don't scum read people by association to living players justbecause you scum read them. Nobody has perfect reads all the time. You have to account for the possibility of being wrong.
6. Holy shit. Ok. *deep breath*. Let's try this again. You don't keep claimed scum alive because they promise to try to find other scum. That's never been valid strategy before and there's no reason it should be now. It's like a SK saying "hey guys I'm SK but don't lynch me because I'm gonna play like a town vig.". You lynch that shit immediately. Also, as has been said countless times, Gamma claims not to be in the lottery, so the arguement that scum wants to lynch him to eliminate it doesn't make sense. And that's not to say scum don't want him dead. Of course they do. So should town though.
7. Again, I apologize for my stupidity. I'm not as smart as you and I don't know of any way to fix that and it's probably my fault because I'm a shit human being. I'll try not to be so "dense" but no promises outside of that. I know my inferiority must be a burden to be around, but I'm trying to play a game I used to enjoy. But I do assure you any misunderstanding is not intentionally. I really am that "dense" apparently. We can't all be you. Now can you please just explain to dense old me how this isn't you saying a Gamma lynch isn't two deaths that aren't the scum pushing him:

8. I know my stupidity is ridiculous, but you didn't say this?

optimal play here is to leash gamma to kill other scum for us. If he does it, we give him a win by lynching massive. Easy.
Man I really do suck. I just want to apologize to everyone in this game right now for having to deal with me. I should have stuck to my break from mafia for a few more months minimum.
