Is this correct Wake?

1. you offer yourself to be lynched so we wont lynch a power role

2. you argue that you now cant be lynched since only a VT would do what you did

I was merely making an observation. On this site you are still very new and when many of the longer time players make comments, there are reasons.

That is what Dashie means by you being antitown. You are drawing all the attention to yourself which lets the scum hide in the background and not have to do anything to try to pretend to be town.
Town is free to persue their own hunts side by side with me. Perhaps our strategies could mesh.

We would do well to note those Scum hapless enough to hide in background. Have you noticed anyone doing so?

1. Yes. However, it becomes more effective with consecutive days.

2. No. You said that. Nowhere have I said they can't lynch me. They can, though from my view that wouldn't be good for Town.

1. So a VT should sacrifice himself each day?

2. So we should lynch you today?

appears so, but I now seem to have one vote for advocating a "policy lynch" when I did no such thing and now another seemingly random one? I know it's hard but I think some people are struggling to keep up with the replacing

Wake, you never really answered my initial question, well you brushed it off. let's say you were scum in this game. wouldn't you be doing exactly what you are doing now to appear town, particularly as someone said your meta was thus?

1.1) No. It is up to them. I volunteered. If I die, another can.
1.2) I'm not liking how you're subtly distorting my answers.

2) You can. But it'd be unwise, and I know you shouldn't today.

In general I'm fucking devious as Scum. Please pardon my emphasis. I play better as Scum. As Town, you have to work with various people and, well, some piss you off.

If I were Scum this game, no way in hell would I be doing what I'm doing especially since there's a Cop. One major difference between Town and Scum is that Scum has to be selfish in order to survive. They'r not going to take one for the team to help Town.

Only I know what my meta is. Disregard everything else.

If I were Scum I'd not roleclaim unless at L-1, or even replace out deliberately. I would post big reads and appear helpful, like some have done here.

Again, either you're not reading, or you're Scum trying to distort what's been said. Knock it off.

Lynching me Day 1 would be unwise (because I know I'm Town), and because my plan becomes more effective with passing Days. It doesn't disprove my strategy at all. You can mislynch me to protect a PR from getting lynched now, or you can do so later when it is more critical.

Regarding BoroPhil, Don Johnson and Maenara... Which of those three most deserve to be lynched.

@ those three: Would any of you be willing to claim at L-1?

Good golly this game is muddled! It is a mess! Wake, can you just like...not post? I can't speak for the others, but now that you are confirmed, I would prefer it if you just never posted. That'd be fine by me, make this game a bit less overwhelming.

VOTE: BP. I don't even remember who I suspected before all these confusing replacements showed up.

or you could claim at L-1. it really depends on the situation. at times there can even be a case made to not claim at all, or to claim at L-2, 3, 4, whatever.

No.

And, I'm
not
mod-confirmed.

If you're overwhelmed, considering this is a 20-player game, that's expected. Muddling happens when you have that many players and a lot of replacing going on.

I will contribute as much as I wish. You will not be silence if I ask you, so you can't realistically expect the same in return, now can you?

I guess it's my fault for assuming people normally annopunce their intent to hammer when one is at L-1. I've seen quickhammers happen, and I consider it to be bad play.

In post 438, Antihero wrote:explaining townreads is really anti-town because if I explain what I think makes you town, scumbags are going to start trying to emulate that behavior. then i'll have to change what i think is town, and that's just annoying...
This seems counter-intuitive. Explaining why you think a player is Town is anti-Town behavior? In that case, all Town reads would basically just boil down to gut reads if you can't explain them. And willingly withholding your opinions of the other players means that you're denying Town information, which in itself is anti-Town. I don't follow your logic here.

When you say that you'll have to change what you think is Town, what do you mean by that? The method you use to identify Town players seems like something that should remain consistent regardless of whether you have to explain it or not.

In post 538, Brian Skies wrote:Why would you vote someone based on something the previous slot did? It's not like you're going to elicit a useful response from them.
Because a player's alignment doesn't change when they replace out.

Oh, he's town, there is no doubt about that. If he is scum, he is seriously the stupidest scum I've ever played with.
If there is no doubt about Wake being Town, why acknowledge the possibility of him being Scum in the very next sentence?
In post 560, uctriton00 wrote:I liked Skull's case on Don_Johnson but I need to do my own read on the game to see if I agree.
For what it's worth, I've pretty much changed my mind about Don_Johnson. I said something earlier that would have caused a smart Town player to back off. He backed off. He can be Town for today. I'm not interested in pursuing that wagon right now.
In post 561, don_johnson wrote:no. you didn't. it was terrible.
Quiet, you. It was a perfectly reasonable case...at the time.
In post 599, Wake1 wrote:As I said, there is a very high chance of me being Town.
No. Either you are or you aren't. There is no "very high" chance of your alignment being one way or the other -- especially from your point of view since you know what your role PM says.
