I WILL ACTIVATE THE SIRENS KNOCK IT OFF

VE

THE THREAD HAS BEEN HIJACKED BY ARGUING.

ARE YOU A BAD ENOUGH DUDE TO CHAT WITH AUSTINMCC INSTEAD OF ARGUING?

You want to lynch Hiro Protagonist. And Palmar?

I will gladly chat about either of those people, and listen, and maybe get down with them lynches, if you will talk to me about solstice and ... pandain.

Specifically, I will offer this --> Hiro Pro does not look good, but why do I lynch him NOW instead of trying to get him to comment on like...a bunch of stuff, lynching him if he doesn't or his responses are super scummy?

Voting for who I want isn't enough.

If you care about the town then you fucking DO something.

MOTHERFUCKER I ASKED YOU TO LOOK AT HIRO! I THINK HIRO IS SCUM DUDE, AND I WANT TO DISCUSS THAT SHIT WITH YOU! QUIT FUCKING LECTURING ME OR I SWEAR TO GOD THIS GAME IS OVER FOR ME. ACT LIKE YOU DON'T THINK I'LL RAGEQUIT THIS FUCKING GAME TOO DUDE.


I don't respond to threats. It's no skin off my back what you do---I'm trying to win but I don't expect to win, so if you're town and modkill yourself then we lose faster. Meh.

If you don't want to play then don't, but don't for a second dare to blame it on me.
I honestly already forgot about your request because of this shitfest so I'll look at him right now.
Let's both cool it imo.

Wave, I HAVE ALREADY USED UP THE BAD ENOUGH DUDE THING SO SORRY THAT I CAN'T USE IT FOR YOU.

HOWEVER, LET'S TALK SPECIFICALLY ABOUT THE POSTS OF FT YOU HATE JUST BEFORE/AFTER LYNCH, AND ALSO ABOUT VA.

I MADE A POST ON VA. AND SPOILERED IT ON THE LAST PAGE. PLOX TO READ AND CHAT.

In non-caps, I think you're super overreacting to FT and jumping to incorrect conclusions. I think that "earlier voters scummier than later voters" comment is NOT scummy, because that post does NOTHING for a scum player. It doesn't move votes, it doesn't get read later, it's just useless letters.

I think that THIS set of posts:

Honestly, the second quote is more believable than the first. Don't ask me why, just goin' on guts.

I'm going to keep pushing VA and FT for scum until I die tonight, and then you guys can forget about my reads just like you do for every other confirmed townie!

I'm not using my vest. Scum, it's your call. Apparently I'm not exactly a threat this game since people won't listen but if you're still scurred of me I'm a free range fucking turkey.

Is also not scummy. I read that as legitimate WTF. Not "HAHAHAHA SCRUBS MAFIA IZ DA GREETEST!!!11!!1", but "WTF HE WAS TOWN AND I KNOW I AM TOWN SO WE WERE BOTH TOWN ALL ALONG /MNIGHTSHYAMALAN"

Can you read them in that light? Or they are absolutely positively mega scummy? If nothing else, IF FT happened to be town, could you see that as a reaction?

snb is automatically confirmed town because he always does 1) 2) and 4) (while attacking people for doing the same thing, which is actually town-point 4.5) btw )

Scumtells are now:
1) playing the game
2) being reasonable and/or calm
3) decent activity
4) being "pro-town"
5) trying to find a lynch (lynching is mean)

As such,

Mafia podcast thread has an entire discussion about how mafia players will start to take advantage of the troll meta and there is no reason for a town player to play like this.

Proceeds to over the top troll.

Needs to be killed. Keeps begging for gun, has listed several people he would like to kill without proper reasoning. If he's town, he needs to step up and become serious. In my opinion, he hasn't shown any intent of playing pro-town. He tries to make some kind of contact with almost everyone, yet it's all non-committing.

It is impossible to say for sure yet, but a possibility is that he's trying to create a false sense of communication with a scumbuddy. There are many times when the scum player can be found not for his connections, but for the lack of them.

No I don't think he's scum yet but that he would be a good shot.

This single sentence alone (references to his opinion about me), is enough for me to raise my suspicions. If you're town, why would you want to kill someone that you think isn't scum? Especially without delving further into the matter, or not even mentioning if he thinks I could be a 3rd party? What I feel from this line is fear. And town does not need to fear me.

There is a ton of people flying under the radar at the moment, but for now there isn't very much to do about it. I'll be more than happy to pressure them, but given what we have seen already there are more urgent matters at hand.

@Koshi
May I please have your item? My powers exceed it's. I will forward it to anyone that town wants the next day.


Calls me scum for my interactions with WoS that look like scum interacting with scum, but doesn't think WoS is scum in the same post. Bullshit. Would lynch.

of course you want to paint me as a third party when you know I'm not actually scum. And revealing my role makes it completely worthless but I'm trying to hint here. its very useful.


See, you're not even trying to deny it. You're clearly NOT TOWN. Unless you provide a very good reason how you are of benefit for the town, you should be killed. Why should we keep anyone not town around otherwise?

The underlined is an interesting reaction. I never called you specifically scum or 3rd party at first, until my latest message. All I said up to that point were my suspicions of you. You could very well be scum, but your responses are screaming "3rd party." And as long as you are anything but town, you should die for all I care.

@VE: To answer your earlier question: I am up for a lurker lynch today if that is the only way we're going to gain majority, but I think we have much better options available we should go for.


Still might be scum, is definitely obsessed with the idea that VA is 3P. Claim makes no sense from VA but this dude is definite suspect.

Hi guys. Sorry about me being late and acting as a 'lurker'. I've caught up with the thread now.

What I would like to elaborate on is the Null Talisman. It's the first item we've seen and I think it might be potentially very dangerous (or good of course). Now that Koshi has revealed it, it will surely come into play fast.

Some thoughts:
1) Why did Koshi reveal it? It might be that it blocks his role in some way. Of course, he could just have given it away then anonymously. But now it makes him appear town?
2) Can we trust Clarity to give him the item? I would be very careful with that.
3) On the other hand, now it is revealed, we can be quite sure scum will be after it. If there is about 6 scum (?), there might be a thief and someone who can use it in their advantage.
4) If scum would want to steal the item, how many nights would it take for them to actually use it? One night to steal, one night to give to someone who can use it, one night to actually use it. That's a long time.
5) Has someone a better idea on how the item exchange works? When Koshi gives the item away and it gets stolen on the same night, what happens first? That which is PMed first?

On another note, I don't understand Slam at all. But I have the feeling he says important things in his posts.

That's a little harsh considering the game has very recently started. Seems to me like you're trying to find something to appear active. You should try and tone it back a little, just makes you look like you're puffing up your post count.

geript is your typical low-hanging fruit / lynchbait townie, as he often is. let me rephrase what you've said here

geript:
"keeps begging for a gun, has stuck his neck out and stated who he wants to kill, even if he hasn't fully reasoned it though. We're less than 24 hours in the game, and geript is being his usual non-seriosu stuff. He is being very active and trying to at least make some contact with every player!"

well shit now he sounds like not a good lynch huh

If you're going into the territory of "meta", by trying to say that "that's not how he usually trolls / that's not his town-trolling", you shouldn't even play Mafia.

Or is this the point where I accuse you of trying undermine me and my intelligence by false claims and giving you an out, not having to explain yourself?


Cephiro claims that he can't deal with a meta of trolls, but doesn't want to admit that to do otherwise is to policy lynch trolling. I'm not saying I'm not down for that, but if you gotta call a horse a horse and say "I dont' like geript's style, so even though I don't think he's scum, I want to lynch him anyways" if that's what your'e doing.

His interaction with VA, although it seems at first to be the classic "overzealous townie" style, is in fact far more insidious. Take a look:

OK so what is going on here? Well, VA is, well, kinda joking around and posted and acrostic saying "I AM NOT SCUM". Was it worth his time? No. Was it useful to town? No. Is it a scumtell? I don't really see why. The fact that he wrote "i am not scum" rather than "i am town" isn't like a scumslip or anything, that's just how he chose to phrase it. Cephiro is going all lou ferrigno on this guy for phrasing his claim to be town differently. This isn't overzealous townie, this is someone trying to play overzealous townie. overzealous townies cling to hard to certain pieces of evidence, go over the top, and push/tunnel hard, but almost always these pieces of evidence are pieces of evidence that make sense.

Cephiro doesn't make sense. The fact that he is loud, or that he tried pushing a relatively defenseless player (geript) should not be mitigating factors. Let's lynch him.

Agree with BH here to an extent. Weary of wily scum BH.

Kita still maybe scum, more interested in speculating setup that scum WOULDN'T know 100% about than actually finding mafia.

I'm really only interested in figuring out the alignments of Marv and Hapa, because if they are town they will figure the rest of you out and we'll win the game. If they are scum we lynch them and the game becomes far easier to figure out. So forgive me for ignoring everyone else, my posts will be focused on them.

First of all, the way Marv entered the thread earlier today acting superior is a "holier than thou" attitude that I would not expect from town Marv towards two players he has played with so much in the past (Oats and myself). Mind you, his interactions with us basically served no purpose other than to establish his early activity, discredit my early vote, and to shit up the thread with Oats. He doesn't think either of us are mafia. Plenty of mafia motivation in his actions there. Since then, of course, he's been pro-town, but I know he's more than capable of that for at least a few hours.

What is even more perplexing to me is that Hapa, when questioned about the alignment of Marv, specifically said that this did not look like a "holier-than-thou" scum-Marv. If Hapa was town and Marv scum, he may be the only one well-versed enough in the wiles of mafia Marvellosity to truly push his lynch, but this shows that he's either not reading Marv very closely or has pre-decided what he thinks of Marv with some information from out of the thread. Either way, this is what a mafia Hapa would be like regarding Marv as either alignment. I may yet be wrong and this could be attributable to Hapa being up late and tired from all the awesome DotA we played, but it's something to note.

Aside from those interactions, I've yet to be particularly impressed by the scumhunting efforts of either player, but it is still in the first half of D1 and there is time yet to do better. Hapa going after debears was not what I usually see out of him as town.

If anyone wants to talk about the alignment of these two, feel free to respond. I will be on thread later.

Why would I want to do that? I'm actually leaning town on marv because he seems legitimately impatient/offended at the people attacking him. And not in a scum-marv "holier than thou" way.


This post is Hapa's read on Marv. It's also entirely truthful in Hapa's assessment of scum Marv's play. We've talked about this before on skype many times, and he's said that this is how he "catches" scum Marv. What I disagree with is his conclusion, that this game is somehow NOT indicative of this scum-Marv attitude.

1Marv sounds very bitchy to me. In fact, it sounds as if his emotions are a bit out of control when responding to things. 2When marv is scum, he says things that people want to hear, and doesn't antagonize the vocal town population.

It sounds like you two got into a fight, and your ego's are preventing both of you from backing down from each other.


1 Bitchy isn't somewhat of a holier-than-thou way of acting? If all you do is complain about the play of others, doesn't that imply that you put yourself on a pedestal above them?

2 Doesn't this sort of contradict your earlier assessment of his scum play? And it doesn't seem like he's agreeing, for the most part, with the most vocal/influential players in the game (yourself, rayn to an extent)? Notably, he's largely avoided interacting with me about my reads. He didn't even respond to my post until you asked him to. Doesn't that seem a bit off?

@ Marv, Yamato, Oats, and Rayn

Play nice.

Between the four of you, there is enormous thread-shitting potential, and how town does in this game is going to be determined by how well everyone can get along together. If you are town, stop with the antagonism. Going around and burning every bridge you can in this game is not how Day 1 is played.


##Vote Debears

Of all the people in the thread so far, Debears' push on Sciberia bothers me the most. I really don't understand the suspicions on scib all that much, and he's firmly null in my mind.

The bolded is completely random and unsubstantiated. Reminds me of his scum-game is such a cop-out read, much less when it's unexplained to everyone else in the thread.

Also, a 95% town read is full retard early d1 is full retard as town. As scum, its dumb but it has motivations (avoid early conflict, make friend of someone who apparently is consider3d bad town).

Vote scribs guise


So according to this, debears doesn't care whether Scib is dumb town or scum. He mentions both, then uses it as a justification to vote.

That's pretty darrrrrn scummy.






This post is bad OVERALL, not just in its suspicion of debears. I've already commented on that. But specifically, why are debears' suspicions of Scib so hard to understand if you only have him as null?

And did you read his scum game YANMM (that debears was in)? He started out in a similar fashion to this game with policy talk and a general "pro-town" style. It's not unsubstantiated if you know the context. But you didn't bother to ask, did you?

Plus, when the fuck do you say "darrrrrrn scummy" when talking about mafia? Why is debears voting for Scib somehow scummy when deebs is plainly stating the scum motivations he sees?

Post reeks of bullshit, Hapahauli. Notably, it's also your first post of the game, and I KNOW you have a hard time getting going as scum. That's why I was suspicious of you in the first place, and your Marv read is just another red flag.




RE: Debears

Deebs is someone who played when I started. Like I said, he also played in YANMM as SK with scib, so I don't see anything wrong with how he approached sciberbia in the early game. It's something I noticed as well, but didn't put as much stock into. Debears is notorious for tunneling early D1 and getting reads off that, so I'm totally fine with his play thus far in the game and wouldn't worry about him unless he becomes far less active.

In YANMM he made a setup-focused post like this one as his first post and it rang some alarms but I, in my noob days, ignored it because of how bad people generally were in my NMM games. To see it again this game is somewhat disturbing, but like I said, it's not damning.

Could I not say the same to you?


3) And yamato for being in the thread but avoiding engaging in discussion. Also I don't understand why marv is his strongest scumread for being useless when there is a whole handful of players who are as of yet equally useless.

I'd appreciate it if sylencia/tofu/yamato/anyone would chime in with agree/disagree on these three.


These consecutive posts feel weird. I did indeed respond to him, he just either didn't get the hint (I was suspicious of Marv) or was downright ignoring my posts and threw shit at me for nothing. I even explained my read on Marv at some point, as he noted in this post, yet he never attempted to disagree with me, he just shat on my read and said I wasn't "engaging in the discussion" (read: contributing to the spam-fest). No really that important either, just plain odd.

Other than that, most of his filter is arguing with Rayn/Debears which is not what I'd expect from a scum scib that I remember to have been rather quiet. He's also obviously affected emotionally by the posts of others at times and seems interested in actually finding mafia. He posts some weird things, but I generally don't like to get caught up in semantics with people who play this game that I don't know that well.

If there's anyone else worth talking about, ask. I'll broaden my horizons because Hapa/Marv (even if I am right) can't be the only scum.


Note I don't think him having long posts is an indicator, merely that he's more comprehensive in his outlook, something you don't need to do as scum and can just pick specific people in order to appear active.

Are you even reading my posts?


That's basically half the reason you're suspicious of me no?

You know I've played a ton of games with marv. While I can articulate my methods of reading him in one way or another, the bottom-line is that a majority of me reading marv is completely on gut. There are just certain posts by him that I get strong town/scum vibes from, mostly because we have such a history together.

In this game, there's just something about the way he's responding to the pressure here that makes me feel he's town. So back to the "holier than thou" thing with scum-marv, he tends to put himself above all the arguments, and either use it as an OMGUS or completely dismiss them at hand.

In this game, he's getting emotionally caught up in them, which I consider a town-tell.

Is he really, though?

It seems like he wants to use these back-and-forth exchanges more as an avenue to shit on my play and my reads than to actually get anything useful out of it.

If I am right about him, there is plenty of motivation for scum-Marv to want to discredit me when town-Marv is usually more cooperative even when I am tunneling him, in the recent past. Why the change this game in his response, and his overall attitude as compared to his recent play?

This is the main thing which you should get from this. In addition, you should read the thread itself. I actually think Yamato plays a very good game here, but the problem is that he appeared comprehensive, but he wasn't actually trying to get someone lynched. That doesn't seem to be his goal, merely a coincidence that agreed with the posts he was making. Wasn't actively trying to make people respond, get them thinking about Vayne for instance when he pushed him.

Basically didn't post much, didn't actively push for his lynches. Evidently didn't care. Read it here. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=423047&user=yamato77&view=all


Policy Lynches
He pushed two in Desert Mini Mafia as town. He pushed for others to join him and seemed sincere . Namely, Rayn and Marv.

As mafia, there is not much to go on. But he did make a mention of "possibly voting kush as policy lynch" but then never followed up on it in Persona mafia.

There is no point in claiming a role that there is likely zero or one of as scum when not everybody has posted. Koshi has also painted a target on his back so no reason to lynch him for the time being.

Don't like Rainbows first post, nitpicks DP flip flopping but doesn't actually follow up on it at all. Possible scum since they usually look for really obvious stuff like that since they have to fabricate scum reads.

WoS is playing to his 3rd party meta. Wouldn't be surprised if he rolled SK/Survivor. Good lynch.

Something feels off about geript's posting, not angry enough.

Observations so far.


Vayne's first post is suspect. His most definitive read is a 3P read (wtf?) on a player already under suspicion. Why is he so strongly considering the possibility of a 3P? As with Rayn before, the preoccupation with reads that aren't in the town<--->scum continuum is something worth noting. The rest of his post is notably garbage and he has yet to substantiate anything he's said so far. Definitely flying under the radar due to the massive blip of a shitstorm Rayn/DP/WoS created.

thanks for telling me what you think your case is about.

Ehh.. i think i was pretty clear in it:

"There is a perfectly fine explanation for his behaviour. Why does he not say that here, in this game? Why is he not trying to explain why town!WoS would bring that "let's not talk on N0" stuff again?

Answer is:
- Because he is mafia and he is trying to play the "look, i played similarly in the other same-a-like game".
- He didn't even think of needing to have an explanation because of "look, i played similarly in the other same-a-like game" would be enough.
- If he was town he could, should and would explain himself."


Can you give me a single town reason why WoS would not explain his "we should not talk N0 in this game"?
Can you?

Because i can't, and i gave all of you his scum!reasons, supported with his own post.


As for the Rayn/WoS situation, I'm not sold on the WoS=scum theory. Rayn's entire case is based on the idea that a person should always play as they do as town given a similar situation. Funny enough, it is the SAME rationale DP used to accuse Rayn, yet was ultimately dropped. Do I need to explain why these meta reads are fucking terrible or can we all agree to stop being bad and scumhunt with more conventional means?

OMG MADE IT TO PAGE 13 WOOOO kush out






And yet no one wanted to policy lynch him. Offer is still on the table btw.





Other general notes
Read this:right here from boardwalk and contrast to his current game of town. Overall a clear example of involved Yamato vs. Apathetic Yamato who tries to be an involved Yamato.

Persona is a slight disagreement with my theory, but supports it in that Yamato isn't actually trying to get anyone lynched.

I don't get the impression. He makes posts but isn't involved.

So what does it mean
I have to get going soon but evidently look at Yamato, he didn't really push for Vayne to get policy lynched merely voted him and gave a single comment. Not same as he does in town.


Here is his filter: Here. More response then commentary, targets specific people rather than overall try to figure out who's town and who's scum. Tunneled Grack for a bit and that's it.

Yamato is playing like scum in that he isn't actively caring, as demonstrated by his previous day one play, recent from all his recent games excluding TL Noir.

Vote Yamato

I like this because I feel the exact same way about Yamato atm. He is not as grating as he normally is when town. When conversing with people, he is being direct, but trying not to stir the pot to hard. Not normal townie Yamato. I would right up a more detailed case on the mater, but Panda pretty much covered it.

My 2 strongish town reads (Panda, and Oats) want him dead. Yamato is scum, and I will be lynching him.

Alright so you thought yamato is scum. I was obviously guilty of that by the end of D1 too.
What you do say here is your townreads Pandain and Oats agree so you like this lynch.
Care to explain where you got those townreads? I don't find them anywhere in your filter.

WoS on the other hand... He has been doing antitown shit all day, but I feel his actions have more intention behind them than VE's does. Hes on my radar.

ok, Im back.

Im not sure here, because I have only mostly skimed up to now from when I last posted, but from the looks of things, peoples reason for not thinking ShiaoPi is scum is because its to obvious? sometimes scum are obvious. After reading though some of his last games, I agree that his play can be pretty inconsistent. however, his actions this game dont look like bad town. When hes been town, he is not apologetic. He is more confident with his reads and open about his play.

I want to reiterate what I said earlier: how ShiaoPi is playing is a classic way to play scum. Pops in the thread, establishes himself, and then rides out without actually contributing. When pressed about it, he promises to contribute, but never follows up. then gos back to lurking once hes not in the spotlight.

On FT. ok, Im not sure why FT is such the scummyist target, but Ive been wrong before. People I have town reads on seem to think hes gonna flip scum. Im not as convinced. FT has contributed when not pushed, ShiaoPi has not.

Can you read them in that light? Or they are absolutely positively mega scummy? If nothing else, IF FT happened to be town, could you see that as a reaction?

Of course I could.
My case on FT however is based on a scum narrative, and if you take all of what I have posted on him into consideration, what he has posted makes more sense to come from scum than town.

You're certainly right that my recent stuff that you quoted may not come from scum at all. the last bits are just feelings that I have that fit. And before anyone goes screaming confirmation bias again, look at the sentences before this one.

Hey FT I don't think we've interacted at all this game so far. Is there any particular reason you don't want to even try to prove yourself towny in my eyes?

while you're around austin, I don't really understand your case. It just reads like a documentary. We know what happened; but you don't seem to really draw any conclusions from it. Instead of telling us how any of that makes me scummy in context you are content to just comment on what happened.

The first part I speculate...ok that's what I do lol. I have speculated in half my filter, why that post specifically?

The second part is me making a legitimate mistake and getting too excited about finding something incriminating. I take a step back and realize it fits HP's nature. Not even remotely scummy. Won't ever come back to this point.

The third part is really just nitpicking, I don't have a problem with Mr.CC yet so I don't feel the need to talk to him. By the same token you think mr.CC is scummy too for not talking to me then right? It's a bad argument as you can see.

Anyway, is it strange or no that FT is nowhere to be seen in hiro's pre-deadline reads list considering FT was one of the main wagons?

Alrighty. That post specifically because of what the speculation DOES, and the lack of effort to actually attach the speculation to the thread.

As far as what it does, it just tosses out a bunch of names. You don't show why THESE are the names you pull out of BH's filter, and you make no effort to narrow things down. Someone shot BH. You dumb a list of dudes, these are all potential killers. But poof, that's it. If you're speculating as a townie, you might say "Here are a bunch of maybe killers. Oh shit, one/some of these guys totally shot a townie last night, that's not cool, I better figure out which.

Analyzing things to see who killed BH is POSSIBLY helpful. But leaving a dump of names and not sifting through them is NOT helpful. And for someone who is apparently playing with cards close to the vest, keeping reads to himself, I would expect EVEN MORE SO that if you're going to bring up this list, you have a reason and a followup. You're willing to keep reads and information to yourself, but you're going to toss out half-thoughts? Boo. Not helpful to town. Just useless activity that LOOKS like it goes somewhere, but doesn't.

I see your thought process and I now know why you think im scum every game. Not much else to say. That's what I do. I don't explain or push my reads but I play a very defensive style where I just make sure I don't get lynched as town. You can be like wave and ad hom attack me for it or you can simply ignore me, I don't really mind either way

And I know a thing or two about speculating. Heck, I spend more time speculating as scum than I do playing the game, filling QT with useless scenarios and thoughts about what will happen if our team does x or y.

I don't see that post as presenting a whole thought, trying to get anyone thinking on this, or even showing that YOU are interested in thinking about this and reaching any kind of conclusion. It's a nothingpost that says "here are some dudes who are in the game where BH died."
Fe fi fo fum.

Stupidity/random questions/paint pictures > ad homs.

I actually had a bit I deleted about how you say you don't like to push your lynches/reads, and that's fine, but I feel like this is a separate matter.

This is just about presenting a full thought, or presenting any sort of read. That post is entirely air, imo (anyone else, feel free to weigh in here). I have found you scummy in games you've presented reads, yeah, but I don't think you can claim that the post about who might have killed BH is a read or something like that.

THE THREAD HAS BEEN HIJACKED BY ARGUING.

ARE YOU A BAD ENOUGH DUDE TO CHAT WITH AUSTINMCC INSTEAD OF ARGUING?

You want to lynch Hiro Protagonist. And Palmar?

I will gladly chat about either of those people, and listen, and maybe get down with them lynches, if you will talk to me about solstice and ... pandain.

Specifically, I will offer this --> Hiro Pro does not look good, but why do I lynch him NOW instead of trying to get him to comment on like...a bunch of stuff, lynching him if he doesn't or his responses are super scummy?

Where did the bolded come from?

Anyway, I'll discuss s0l with you. I'm willfully ignoring Pandain for the moment, but promise to take a look before dawn and I'll provide my read then. Anything specific you want to discuss about s0lstice?
if I had to describe his playstyle, it'd be a coked up rabbit with the attention of a goldfish injecting caffeine into himself directly through an IV drip. it's like a reel of random animated shorts where things just blow up randomly

I actually have laid out 3 pretty concise reads. my top 3 lynch targets right now are pandain, grackaroni, and palmar. You can see why I am not wasting my breath atm until lategame when people are actually ready to play

nobody should need convincing he is scum after he said he loved that case by CR that I destroyed. Didn't even give any reasons because he couldn't. Just awful.
