Not changing this until you get an avatar.

This is a cop-out.

I wanna vote this. But.. wagons are tasty and produce delicious fruit.

Everyone ends up wanting to vote me day one, there will be a wagon at some point.

How do you feel about the game at this point?

Up to this page it's kinda lame. Only highlight is you but I didn't expect you to be the kind of player to control the thread

[Creature]

wait that's not true

elements isn't always scum, he's just always lynch bait

I'm trying to change my day one play style to make me not as lynchbaity, but it hasn't been working so far.

Meh, discard the Elements lynch option

Still am up for some surprise train on farside though

[Creature]

Just call me disease-proof townie. I won't mind. Really.

Nvm, maybe No Lynch slot is indeed just town

[Creature]

Hey all, I hope all is well.

Would anyone on the Hoctac wagon care to explain why they are on it?

Are you from Jake and the Never Land Pirates?

[Creature]

Quick question; is this a game everyone is treating dead seriously or is it a game people are kinda going to meme about and not take too seriously?

I only take a game seriously if we can meme about it.

Oh well, my large sequence of posts would be interrupted by the mod

I thought I was doing good. What happened?

[Creature]

No family meetup plus my mother went through a frustrating workday.

I just reread my role PM and realised I'm town???

I've been playing based on the assumption I was scum all this time£"%Tpijgk

Happens to me every other game.

I don't think this is actually a thing unless you are Creature.

Impersonating the mod is against the rules.

Precisely why the action makes no sense as town but makes perfect sense as scum. She was under no real threat. As town, she therefore has no reason to have reacted that way. As scum, she does have a reason to react that way; to garner some cheap towncred and dissuade the efforts at wagoning her before they take off. It's a move that there was low-risk to pull, but incredibly high reward.

grabbing the spotlight d1 early for no reason on a play to AtE when its not needed makes sense how?
Precisely because it's not needed--what does ETL in the spotlight risk as scum? She wasn't even close to lynch range.

There's a weight between the possible town motive for an action, and a possible scum motive for the action. The town motive for the action is...well, honestly, it's hard to tell because there isn't much of one. The scum motive for the action is to shut down the suspicion on her slot, play wounded gazelle to get sympathizers to help defend her and divide the town and break unity, get people who're suckers for AtE to townread her.

these are all good points from the flip side of the same coin. If someone is to argue my points this is how you do it.

Why should I care what argument appeases you? If this doesn't do it?

BTW, I still think your case on ETL is NAI.

[Tchill13]

btw idc what you think quick lol. I agree to disagree regarding the specifics of my read on ETL.

Im saying that i am open to certain perspectives but im not entertaining anything that is pointless from my perspective. Mastina's points are valid imo. I've not seen why yours should be.

While im open to the idea I stand by my argument of ETL town. I believe mastina has fair points but im going with MY gut on this one.

[Tchill13]

And beware, I might hammer without claiming intent.

@Everyone

this man has 400 plus posts. Can anyone think of any hard stances he's taken with in depth reads/content to back it up?


VOTE: quick

Mastina at least made sense in her argument (scum can make valid arguments)

but quick hasnt accomplished anything imo. I dont think they've generated any meaningful interactions or content but somehow they have 400 plus posts.

[Tchill13]

@mastina

I believe the personality of ETL has had a bearing on her play in this game. Which is what explains the reason for things that dont make sense as town but reward as scum IF she is town here.

Basically, Early blowup with ML (which happened super quickly) plus the hist of ego make me believe the personality is capable of effecting her play to the extent it has. I do concede you make fair points, hence the vote change.

It's his wild inconsistency and complete free-flowing thought (or lack of it ) that's towny

He's not a slot you should evaluate as a "normal" mafia player.

@Vecna I am disappoint

Elements indirect town @Creature
