I have never said that "pure rationality will get me to the end." I don't know what you mean by "pure rationality."In post 1369, Sesq wrote: who are you to say
you're about to get lynched
you're playing the worst clearly
mafia isnt just a game of logic, it's a game of emotion and using interrogative techniques to try to get people to slip up
if you think that pure rationality will get you to the end you are very mistaken
(playing in such a way also implies that you are able to be 100% rational which is not always the case)
Also, it's not my win condition to "get to the end." My win condition is to catch scum. I'm happy to be lynched, if it means we can figure out, in the process, who is not really looking for scum. But we can't figure that out if we don't demand that Town list their thought-process and reasons for lynching me. If town does not list their reasons, then scum can hide by not listing their reasons and just following the crowd.
I'm not playing a game based on "pure rationality," whatever that is. I just want people to explain themselves. Take the time to make their reasons understood, so that we can evaluate them for their sincerity.
