Mind explaining this post a bit?

[Ferastical]

Soooooo, I can see now, that there has been a lot of "bullcrap" going around. In this case I'm uncertain and thus unavailable to pick the right vote. Brandi, you're free.

That's what happens when you don't refresh the website :')

[Fire Starter]

What.

[Ferastical]

I was away camping for a few days, no internet and so I couldn't refresh the webpage and when I posted my first reply, for me it showed only 1 page worth of text, so basically the first page.

[Fire Starter]

Actually by clicking submit it would show you all of the new posts and then you would have to click submit again. Ignoring that in case for whatever reason it didnt, to what were you replying and who is your buddy?

VOTE: Ferasticalscum probably

A phoenix and acid doesn't fit together and just a "scum probably" ain't a good explanation, but then again, this is the first day.

Hi everyone.

VOTE: Brandi Seems suspicious.

sweet did your scumbuddies tell you to throw a vote at me or did you pick me out all on your own?

This explains it ALL.

@SlingshotWaffle:

Do you still believe Brandi's interpretation was purposely malicious+scumread her for it?

Im always bad at the start of games especially when we have so many replacements. My bad. This is mess lol. It was clearly a joke but then Brandi took it seriously. I cant see scum on either side making a huge wreckless push like that this early and on something so trivial. However, Brandi hasnt played the game in a while so could see him doing something like that, and Slingshot isnt that new so cant see him being that bad.
UNVOTE:
Id like to hear what some of the replacements think of all this.

Hi, i just join this game, and i am a newbie to this site. I finished reading the 3 pages. This post makes me suspicious about FS( fire starter), he said a lot of useless stuff with no conclusion while everybody is arguing.

VOTE: fire starter

[SlingshotWaffles]

Except he did somewhat come to a conclusion. That he wouldn't expect a super early reckless push from me, but he could see one from Brandi.

Why not?

[Draynth]

Why's it "completely bullcrap"? It's clear she took it seriously.

I'm on her side here. This feels a lot more like opportunistic scumreading to me than Brandi's did. I didn't take your joke seriously like Brandi did, but I did scumread the joke. Your reaction to it on the other hand is a lot worse. This just feels like mock horror.

I'll go ahead and call myself out for early buddying before someone else bothers to.

I agreed with this when I came to it when reading the game but to be honest I'm fairly certain that there's nothing to it, to me it doesn't feel like a scum reaction. I'll try to put into words why I think that

VOTE: fire starter

I like the thought process behind the post, although I wouldn't necessarily agree with it

VOTE: No Lynch

It's been proven a few times that nolynching day 1 is more beneficial to scum than to town, why do you want to no lynch?

BP/NotBP

Everyone claim.

And why are you doing this?

It's a strategy that is making the rounds at the moment, here's a quote from TesXX who explains it in a newbie game: (

The game is over,

DON'T TALK ABOUT ONGOING GAMES

)

"The best way to start off the game is to claim BP or not BP. This is because BP claims won't be taken as seriously if you claim it later in the game, like if it's lynch or lose or if you're about to get lynched. It's a stupid idea for scum to claim BP this early since there's no reason to already think they'll be lynched. In the rare case that scum claims bulletproof, then either the cop (if there is one) or the bulletproof (if there is one) should counterclaim. The doctor shouldn't counterclaim, but if the setup is Column C then the doctor will be the only one to counterclaim(we wait for counterclaims first). If there is no bulletproof claims, then the tracker (if there is one) should claim because they know there is a doctor.
I think that's about everything about the strategy."

I just don't like it, I think it defeats the purpose of playing the game. In my opinion it moves the meta towards a situation where everyone just randomly claims D1 and you lynch people based from that, which I absolutely despise.

Sorry, but that attitude is dumb
