Newbie Mini Mafia IX - Page 8

I did call meta change before I got my role. If I took a big step back, it’s because my first 2 games had me attacking all over the place, causing unintentional chaos, and being the juiciest target at LYLO both times, which led to scum victories (though I was never lynched after all, but no one would listen to me).

- A lurker getting modkilled is worse than a lurker getting lynched because you can get information off of the lynch from where people’s votes went. With a modkill you just lose a player for no reason.

There is a big difference between ‘arguing for and against no-lynch’, and ‘looking at people’s behavior surrounding said issue’. I note that Nova’s case on Solohan relied a lot on said ‘behavior surrounding the issue’, so I don’t see why me commenting on it is scummy. I did focus my analysis on one side of the aisle because that’s the side I thought to be most suspicious, but I did not argue for or against nolynch, which is the real waste of time.

- Real life reasons right now keep me from being here at day apart from lunchtime, and my day is when the majority of player seems to be active. I still try to get out at least a good post at lunchtime and another at night.

- I will remind town I did not only defend Nova; I also attacked him for the macheji modkill stuff. I don’t think I can be accused of stroking his ego with that post, can I?

- As for Nova’s assertion that I don’t say which of Lazer or he is scum at the daybreak post, I note that I did provide a hint as to how town should find out. I simply didn’t have time to carry that analysis out right there, but I later returned and did exactly what I said should be done. I should not be blamed for doing exactly what I said I would do to judge who of Lazer and Nova was most likely to be scum.

- Me asking Lorant for his case on Pure should not be suspicious at all given that he mentioned Pure being scummy in passing, with zero analysis, and Pure was and is my best townread (for logical argumentation and pushing the right person).

My last post’s ‘defense of Pure’ is to be read mostly as an attack on Lorant, whose case was utterly unconvincing and made in a spirit of ‘what could be the worst possible scenario’ – and worst case scenarios are unlikely to actually be true and more likely to lead to a townie lynch, so I’m inclined to think of people who post them as scummy.

- Thinking there is a scum among the lurkers is not the same as advocating a lurker lynch. I even put a vote on Lazermonkey in the same post, so this accusation by Nova is entirely silly, unless of course he means I’m scummy because I would eventually lynch a lurker... I note Nova also thinks there’s a lurker in the scumteam and presumably he wants to lynch him at some point, so why am I being called scummy for this? This is the same behavior as mine.
