No BH, I have respect for your play. I thought I made that clear in SoaF when I thought you were a longtime Vet, even though you haven't been playing for that long.
I don't even know why the hell I'm defending SnB this much; then again, I don't know why you are so touchy about this. You have to remember that that modkill happened very recently, so it is fresher in people's mind, especially a newbie.
If you're town, you're going to be a strong asset, so I'm merely trying to diffuse a situation where it looks like you're getting worked up like shit.

So calling BH a retard is fine and if he's offended, he deserves to be, because he's retarded... right? Or are you just randomly defending some guy's OMGUS because it's against someone who is also running for mayor? What exactly are you trying to say in this post?

What, by saying the guy is right to call me retarded/trolling? I've presented evidence that I am indeed not a retarded/trolling player. Whether or not SnB thinks I'm retarded/trolling is completely irrelevant. I just get annoyed by people saying it to my face.
What's relevant is this, and the fact that you don't find it relevant is weird:

Look ET I don't know if you're aware of this, but if someone calls me retarded and trolling in a game in which Grush57 is also playing, it disturbs me a great deal. I'm willing to "be a brat" as you so put it and ask a Host to do something about it if he continues to call me a retard. I'm also unwilling to stop pressuring him just because he calls me retarded. What's your problem with all this?

I don't care whether or not you resent me. I presented a list of filters of every game in which I have played on TL Mafia. These filters show a number of things including that A) I am not a trolling/retarded player and B) I post a lot and have been known to triple and quadruple post a great deal. I find the fact that you find my triple posting odd to be odd. I don't think you're scum, I think for whatever reason you're just trying to pick a fight. I can't really imagine why but there you have it.

I'm trying to say your post and your reasons suck, BlazingHand's questions for SnB are legitimate, and the only reason I can imagine you having a problem is because BlazingHand is running against you.

I´m not considering neither of BH and Sinensis to be serious candidates at this time, and I will not vote for them. The reason isn´t that I disagree that a policy-lynch is a bad move, I think that if the mayor feels that we can only be sure about a certain player when he flips, or that a player will only hurt town if left alive, then he is entitled to lynch him. What I dislike about their campaigns is that it´s easy to run a campaign on lynching a particular player based on Meta, easy for town, easy for scum. I want to elect based on the player and how he´s going to play for the rest of the game, not about a single choice he will do at the end of the first day.
I´ll most likely vote for S&B. I was masoned with him half the game in Holy Roman, he´s a good player and I think I can read him fairly well. I can accept voting in ET too. I´m not sure about VE yet, but there´s a day and a half for him to campaign yet.

Dude, you're the one getting all worked up and mad at me LOL! Me try to pick a fight? Seriously?
I am going to fully, fully enumerate my logic and reasoning for shit right here. After this, I am completely dropping this topic because it is useless to talk about.
1. SnB says you post like a retard. 2. You get offended and post questioning on him in reference to earlier stuff. 3. I agree with your questioning on him, but I don't like how you wanted to call in the host for a retard comment. 4. You ignore what I said about the host thing, and instead focus on the retard part. You falsely think that I consider you to be a retard. 5. I say you are getting worked up, because you focus on the part of my post that you want to focus on. You then post a list of your games to prove that you are not a retard, when I already know you are not a retard. 6. I said that you deserve to be offended by being called a retard. You don't understand my posts, or maybe I was unclear, but you seem to think that I think you're bad. 7. You should care whether or not I, and other players resent you, because the excessive negativity is a reason for TL towns losing lately. I made a post about it on the other page.

BTW, I'd like to propose a sweet plan: We elect me mayor, and elect Grush57 vice-mayor, and I immediately lynch him. I don't like the Pardoner mechanic and I think this is the easiest way to get rid of the Pardoner and Grush57, both of which are threats to town, neatly in one day. Thoughts?

8. The "brat" thing specifically refers for the tendency for players to say things like "if you keep on doing X, I'm calling the host", or "you are playing against wincon, I'm telling the host". 9. This could be construed as a negative insult towards you, but my point in that entire post was to say "make your case built on regular shit, not you being offended+a host insult".
I still don't get how you got so swiftly mad at me. Playing scum is so much easier

However, every one of my questions about your initial post still applies. At the time that you wrote it, your campaign for vice-mayor was based on a thought that there WAS a vice-mayoral election. So, at the time that you wrote it... why on earth were you campaigning to be vice-mayor? Show nested quote +On May 27 2012 13:52 Blazinghand wrote: Why not run for mayor? If you really want to try out a blue role, and you really found it fun, and you take things seriously and are easy to subject to analysis, you should WANT the double vote.
In fact, you're willing to let ET, who you admit you like ET but don't know why... and also are hedging on whether or not he's easy to read... but the main thing for mayors is you need to analyze their posts in a serious way?
See, you know your own alignment quite well-- you SHOULD know you're town, assuming you are indeed town. If that's the case, why are you trying to get a power that's almost useless for town but super useful for scum?
Why not run for mayor? All your reasoning points towards you running for mayor, but you run for vice-mayor and waffle on ET. What's the deal? These questions still need to be addressed. What's your deal, S&B? Why did you take those actions? On May 27 2012 15:32 strongandbig wrote: I just said dood.

And the question "why are you trying to get a power that's almost useless for town but super useful for scum" has a retardedly obvious answer, doesn't it? So scum can't have that power?
Finally, it's not that I don't know why I like ET more than the other three of you. It's that I didn't want to come right out and say "half of everything bh or ve post is retarded or trolling" because you're both pretty good players and have a lot more experience than me; but I honestly think it's better to have a mayor who takes all their posts seriously so we can analyze them, rather than someone who posts like a retard or trolls half the time.
It's glaringly obvious that I did not react to SnB's retardation accusation with pressure, but rather, I BEGAN by pressuring him, THEN he made the retard comment, THEN I continued pressuring him. Did you read the posts or are you just fishing for reasons to attack me?

I'm not complaining to the host. I'm just saying, if he continues to insinuate that I am retarded, I will do so. If you disagree with my position, that is completely fine. If you call me a brat and also think that my language is demeaning and I'm the one causing resentment then I disagree in the strongest possible terms. The rules on the OP clearly state that I am allowed to contact the host:
If you do not like how someone is talking to you, please PM a host, Flamewheel, or Mig before involving the TL staff. If you are unsatisfied with how the situation is resolved, then you can appeal to the TL staff normally.
However, I'd much prefer if SnB just stopped without me doing this, so I asked him to do so and notified him that I will gladly contact a host if he does not.
I am done speaking with you on this issue.

Honestly it's probably better just to ignore ET on this issue. I don't think communicating with him about it will lead to anything and it will likely just clog up the thread, which isn't good for town.

I'm done arguing with you BH; it's clear that I have been patronizing in more than one way, but I hope you see the points that I've tried to make. Let's just cool down and reapproach things, ok?
Using the lynch on grush at this point is actually not as bad of an idea as I first thought. D1 lynches are hard as fck, and taking out someone bad isn't a bad plan. However, I can't agree with it for two reasons: 1. grush hasn't proven to be completely anti-town thus far, and 2. in a 30 man game, I think a D1 lynch intended to shoot at scum is possible.
I would rather go for a case that can produce more discussion/controversy (controversial lynches work better towards determining alignment), and a lynch centered around grush would merely be a conversation of "well, is he bad, or BAD?".
