I hate the leader FA pick, it's unnecessarily dangerous.

The assumption is Cerb just failed to pick BP or redirect, when it also provides the easy cover for FA to claim she picked Cerb and pick someone else while killing Cerb.

Okay this shit is not cool.

1) Yes I have had bad games. However you yourself have seen my town game improve in that I was right about Jingle when I just couldn’t explain it. I continue to receive feedback and improve. Holding a game where I sucked over my head is horrible.

I could easily go “Undertale precult” and say everyone worship the group I walk on I can find the only scum in a game of 20+ or worship me because on MU I got all the scums and freaking pwn turbos.

That is not how a town block functions.

Ank helps me with my difficulties and I will help her out. That is how a block works. It’s not meant to be an impenetrable forcefield of “omg I will but all you say all eternity”

But you and muffin have done this and it’s silly.

If I am bad this game point it out otherwise knock it off.

Note, I'm not saying she's scum, and I'm also fairly sanguine about her being in the superhero group tonight, just think it's unnecessarily dangerous to double up on a leader who's anon pick who had 2 protection picks available died overnight.

?? It’s not FA picks another leader. It’s that she picks between the two people we vote between.

A universal townread (doesn’t have to be FA if you scumread her but why?) then picks the second.

It’s arguably a two town leader plan which makes sure scum can’t override it.

So it’s all public. If she claimed to pick another person and then kills them then

For one she would be scum

And two then she would be leader again. In which case we would look at who died and why and analyze it

This way no matter what we get something

This assumption fails because there's no way FA can predict whether Cerberus will be mediumed tonight or not.

Ok let's slow this down MB. Process we should be doing:
1) Pick 2 people who are designated leader-votees tonight, everyone commits to voting within then 2 people
2) We designate 5 people for Titus to make as her superhero team tonight

If you want FA to pick those 2 people I'm not 100% against that, I'm (was, Ank points out my mistake) saying FA shouldn't be 1 of the 2.

There's nothing for FA to actually do as leader or to become leader or to assign leader to anyone.

That assumption still fails unless you also assume that scum would know D2's powers before the end of D1

But, that possibility I didn't think of. Did you ask the mod about it?

You’re saying “Hey don’t trust Math because they were bad in Civ”

For starters that has no relevance to this game.
Secondly I really dislike how you’re trying to plant the idea “Math is bad don’t give him powers”
Thirdly you’re arguing it based on a bad reason as I am advocating for a block
Fourth if you think I am bad here fucking discuss it

I am 99% sure you’re just intent on calling me bad to try to get others to doubt me.

So like your argument of “I am bad” don’t give me powers has no merit

What am I bad specifically on here that merits that shade?

@MOD - Other than the spiritual mediumship, can any other powers be targeted at dead players and work?

Titus

This paranoia isn't warranted, you literally just saw me pull Mathblade into a compromise (albeit with Eddie Cane's help, but I still had a hand in it) when our reads were virtually opposite each other's.

I'm just as heavily engaged in this game, so there's really no reason to assume he's going to go off the rails into whatever lala land you're assuming he'll go into while I'm alive.
