i literally did this with Ythan in team mafia, i will always find the most recent game I can. The most recent Ranger scumgame was 2016. i must use that game then. I have no other choice.

Fair enough. This one is mostly curious though if you went looking for a Ranger scumgame you were in to compare to, or if you were picking up similar vibes from Ranger compared to that nine year old game and went to grab it to prove it to others.

explaining a natural thought takes very little time.

i would think your page by page readslist method takes more effort than just having thoughts


like what are u unable to verbalize any sort of thought, like "oh this led me to this"

its antithetical to the game of mafia and u are basically throwing as town by doing this to make your scum games easier. u want me to figure out which of your changes might gleam some AI information. but when i pressed you for reasoning on why you read me your answers were lame things like : "all the posts", "radiate scum", etc. all generic and bogus reasons.

It's dawning on me that this back and forth is doing nothing for the game at hand, this little song and dance has gotten boring now.

At least make it look like a real fight at this point.

ok koba correct me if I'm misunderstanding you ok?


your argument is that ranger is mafia because she is not elaborating on her read on you and if she were town then she would elaborate on her read on you.

for your evidence you've provided one example of ranger!town in a completed game elaborating on a read.

now for that evidence to be conclusive - it would also have to be true that ranger!town in every completed game would have to elaborate on all of her reads[or reads when asked]

now if you think that's true we can go on to the next step of asking ranger if she's ever not elaborated on a read as town in a completed game.

Any issues?
