What do you want to fight about?
Why do you want an easy lynch?

What made Pine compelling? Do you have any actual town reads?
1) I don't.
2) Pine couldn't defend himself.
3) still working on a list.

It's easier to lynch someone when they are not around to defend themselves.

VOTE: Pine

Weird. Because what I'm hearing here is "I want an easy lynch". Specifically, a non-controversial lynch so that you can't be blamed for killing a townie!

Why is the fact that Pine couldn't defend himself good?

So you voted for an easy lynch, which is a bad thing, because it was easy?

Does that sound like you're trying to kill mafia? Or does that sound like you're just trying to vote for someone no one will blame you for voting?

Because I know what it sounds like to me!

Please explain what specific posts lead to your reads if at all possible. Since nancy is your strongest read I'm most interested in this.

What behaviors specifically make them scum?

Good luck studying!

I initially thought her to be town until the recent interaction with Noodle, then I rethought my read on her and waited for more content from her regarding the whole wincon argument

Lynch is not easy. He is still alive with no extra votes.

Can't killing mafia and "voting for someone no one will blame me for voting" be the same thing?

Are you trying to say Pine is not Mafia?

And with her stances on pine and noodle(disagree with both of them) as well as her recent reaction, it kinda reads as scum getting defensive.

Aside from that, I just don't wanna lynch outside that pool because I feel the rest of the playerlist are townreads of varying strength

I don't think a Pine lynch is the best lynch to do at the moment, though

What does it sound like to you?
I dunno if pine is mafia. He's said jack shit basically. What I do know is that you didn't actually want to lynch him because he was mafia. You wanted to lynch him because he couldn't defend himself.

I mean, you're the one who said it was easier to lynch people who don't fight back, not me. You're also the one who voted for someone because they couldn't defend themselves! Which is a mafia thing to do! You even started justifying a myslinch preemptively with the whole "better a lurker than active town"

And at no point did you argue that Pine was mafia. Rather you argued that lynching an inactive townie was better than lynching an active townie. You know, as if you had some kind of... confirmation bias?

Like, let me be clear, you voted to kill someone without making an argument as to why they're mafia, and when asked why, said that it was because they were an easier lynch than other people. That is not the mindset someone who is town has. Hell, there's a number of ways a townie would have phrased lynching an inactive player, and you didn't hit on any of them.

You're mafia. If you're not mafia, then give me a good argument why Pine should die, since you seem so dead set on it? Make it convincing, because I'm fairly certain you're mafia.

How do you feel about nancy?

That's susp in my eyes. Of all the people to kill, you choose Pine? So you feel he would provide js with the most info? L m a o
I personally don't find anything suspicious with loop apart from his advocacy with a pine lynch. I'm confused why people repeatedly ask me about him. Can someone explain to me what he did?

I feel like everyone who was in favor of a Pine lynch is pulling back after realizing that it went looking good. Why take a risk to kill an inactive who could be a power role when we could actively look for someone who is scum. There are other potential scum ..

I have a slight suspicion on him, but nothing worth killing him over atm. His only posts of substance were defending Nancy early game. I would hope to think that he's too experienced to be the scum that lurks. Heck, he almost got replaced. There's no point in killing someone if we know little about them. We have a 7/9 chance of killing town after all

Look at this thread for evidence. RVS has been stilted by the philosophical differences in your insistence that people claim and my refusal to claim. Discussing theory at this point is not at all conducive to scumhunting, which is what we should be doing and which is what RVS is designed to facilitate.
Ok, you're town. (Not just for this post, but this sticks out to me as a post no mafia would make)
nancy's simply stating that because
she
had another philosophy than the rest(and therefore refused to vote), the game was stalled.
is this your strongest townread of her?

Yes.
Let's kill him.
Better than a possible mislynch of an active town. Can you agree with that?
This is a mafia argument. Period. It sets up "well at least we killed a lurker!" and "No one can be blamed".
I don't think it's much more than a simple vote, and his logic might be that he'd rather keep someone active, that he believes to be townish.

Stop pitying me, and give me your best shot. If I'm obvscum it shouldn't be hard at all. We all got into the game prepared to be lynched at first day. I won't be bitter, and I doubt the others will be either. Being an semi-experienced player, you know this - and tbh you're just making yourself more suspicious.
:twisted:

I'm not pitying you at all, ftr, I just want to let other people have their shots and don't want to dominate discussion. I've been too much at the center of the gamestate as it is and I'd prefer to let you guys interact with each other more. I've responded in a somewhat joking way ("come at me bro") to hopefully encourage others to pick at the situation. Basically the issue with your case on me though is that you're conflating a lot of non-scum-indicative things and trying to make a case for me being scum out of them.

This kind of post is why I'm scumreading you, Tes. You haven't been involving in pushing the gamestate forwards at all, you haven't been scumhunting. You need to get involved in more than a superficial way and try and pick at people's arguments and find motivation behind what people are doing. Even if you're scum, you should be trying to practice those skills and not hide by cutesy posts like the above.
