Said in the exact same sentence that I think a Val vote is a bad one :igmeou:,
plus
the fact that there's maybe enough support to get a lim on him.

not about to have this type of shit incriminate me LOL

I don't disagree with the idea of Eliminate All Liars, but I feel like it's the type of mantra (according to the wiki at least) that gets easily abused by scum. Also, I feel like this isn't abnormal that as scum, catboi could be completely lying about not doing anything as well to cover for themselves.
I mean, yes, that's the nature of the game, you have to decide if someone is telling the truth or not.

But for the record, I almost never put myself in a direct CC with the tracker here as scum - if it's in column B, with the doctor, CCing the tracker just makes me confirmed scum and I lose every time. If it's in column A, I'd have roleblocked the tracker every time, and there is no way the tracker would both be alive and have a report. It just doesn't go down this way if I'm scum, period.

Great, thanks, you've forced me to out for absolutely no good reason with your completely boneheaded play.

@catboi wtf, bad idea. why do you want the jailkeeper to CC me instead of the "true" tracker? for me you just want to know who is the jailkeeper because you already know that i'm the tracker
I said that because
I knew you were lying
. Not hard to string this together.

From a town's perspective, if someone is claiming a tracker result on them when they are VT, what is the more likely possibility: that the fae claime is lying scum, or that the seemingly noob player is faking a result as a test? (;¬_ლ)

Further, how the hell am I supposed to react? As scum I'd
know
it was a bluff, and not be worried at all. As town, I have to consider the possibility that igorsprite is simply claiming as a way to get me eliminated.


igorsprite, how much experience do you have playing mafia?

I understand your post before now, then, Igor. Okay.
Double lying on this one was certainly a play and I'm not sure it was as worth it as you think it is, let alone harming your credibility, but yeah, it provoked some reactions.

Because, were it setup A2, I would have the roleblocker on the tracker, and the goon would kill either the tracker or [secret PR read]. I would know, no matter what, that the tracker could not have a legitimate report on me. Therefore I would have basically no cause for concern whatsoever.

igor these kind of plays will lose a lot more games than they will win games. They'll also piss off a lot more people than they will win games.

I'm busy for a while today but will have a lot more to say later.

Here's a question for Greeting, why do you not trust igorsprite's tracker claim exactly? Because I feel like a lot of the logic makes it hard to assume that.

What does "osu" refer to?

I ask because there is significant dissonance between your day 1 act of "i'm a noob, idk what i'm doing" and you pulling this test today, as that's a more advanced play than i'd expect from a newbie, which makes me think you're faking being a noob to gain an advantage ingame, which would be very suspicious. You're decidedly not clear, which is why I'm bothering to pursue this line of questioning at all.

Okay. I'll pack away my tinfoil for now and take what you say at face value. I'm still extremely annoyed at how this has all unfolded but just have to move on at this point. I should probably just step away from the game for tonight since I'm too tilted to respond properly. (⁎˃ᆺ˂)

Super agree. I'm really confused as to how greeting thought catboi was the more verified claim when Igor claimed to have caught them in an action.
