Do you have a special way of reading him VE?

Wouldn't it be convenient if this was the scum team? Highly unlikely, but then it is highly unlikely that any single player is scum- yet there is a guarantee of at least one. Therefore, you should elect players based on what they say, being WARY of those who have shown exceptional skill as well as those who have little or no skill. In fact, we want an absolute moderate with regard to meta until a veteran has sufficiently shown themselves to be town to earn our trust- in which case a veteran becomes ideal.

This point is why I usually talk about Svengali at some point. However, that is just an attempt to sound laughable- a meta I plan to give one last ditch effort to destroy here before turning wholly to co/hosting games with the very occasional /in. Therefore, I will from now on refer to it thus; "The Peid Piper Problem". The pied piper mislead a bunch of rats through skill; so also can forum vets who rolled scum.

I'm not an Assassin, therefore I'm not running for mayor. That was the only case in which I actually planned to run.

I am still catching up.

I disagree.

Either: He is right, you are scum,
Or: He is wrong, you both interact poorly here
Or: He is not only wrong, but he is intentionally wrong and actually Pied-Pipering you.

Or: something else. But VE is far from idiocy, I can give you am example of idiocy in a heartbeat and in fact will do so.

Game: Newbie Mini Mafia XLVIII
Filter: Alakaslam

Game: Aperture Mafia 2: Part 2
Filter: Alakaslam

For alignment specific idiocy.

Do not insult needlessly.

I don't trust VE but I don't think he is scum yet. I don't claim to be able to read him; this is just a pair of Lincoln coppers I used to own.

Coag, I will probably do that, in inside jokes dispersed here anBlazinghand d there, if you want to waste your tunnel on me over that know that it is a waste, therefore antitown unless there are reasons to think I would THE GREAT bloody cobbler as scum- so give reasons why that is a valid reason to tunnel me if that is an honest threat.

That being said, I'm moving on to the vote thread after a bit more deliberation

fml I had to write this out twice because I had so many tabs open ~_~


@ rayn's post earlier: Here

You claim that my case was in fact bad but then you agree with everything that I had specifically laid out within it, what gives? Did you just not read it? Clearly there were no good reads at that present time and for a mayor to be established reads must be thrown around, which is exactly what I was saying. Your choice of mayor is based entirely off if you agree with their reads? Why?

You also debase the entirety of it because of the one line that said if "I failed to lynch my top scum readS". The plurality in reads assumes that one would live past day 1 and be able to use their double voting power as you cannot lynch multiple reads on day 1.


There is also:




You were scum partners with risen in heavyweight. You know he is crazy and will literally do anything or write anything to win. How can you be so quick to have a town read on him based off of a post? He has won world champs and also has the "best mafia play" award or whatever. To quite openly say you will not read him for the rest of day 1 is making me apprehensive to say the least.

@rest of the town
Also some other things that struck me as odd;

Hopeless' start to the game:



I've played one game with this guy and in that game (he was town) at the very start he was trying to contribute to current conversations and get things talking. This games start has been very lackluster from him. After asking VE about his past mayor games VE responds that he has been mayor once and he died night 1.

By no means are they solid credentials in any terms. His contributions were just useless "won't vote for kush" posts. He then drops his mayor vote onto VE after hearing about his 1 game experience and leaves the thread.

_____________________________________________________________________________________

I'm actually leaning a bit more suspiciously towards rayn right now; however I thought it was interesting to see these 2 posts just as I refreshed.


+ Show Spoiler +

Obviously no associative tells between unflipped players yada yada but I find it "psychologically intriguing" when people bring up similarities like that. Obviously if you are scum, the posts that stick out to you the most are your scum partners and so you can subconsciously repeat them etc. However, this is a lackluster point to say the least just something I'd thought I'd note.

The last one is the only one I could conceivably see as being similar

Did you even understand me before? Or do I still fail to get my thoughts across?

So do you now? How the hell am I supposed to word things? I have stopped trolling and my head hurts with the assumption of -_- during my leisure time. It's like working a 16 hour day for kicks but I'm thinking it will pay off irl to become more serious here.

Well anyway I think some are mistaking sharrant for Storrzerg or Softiforget, because woah I did not see that coming

I think he meant before he got his role PM. "I think it's a good one" is, I think, referring to his plan, not the role.

I will continue to watch you, VE, but right now I don't want to make you insta-mayor.

Can't be bothered to read all this. Love it when I'm scum, reason I hate being town.

If anything anyone could say particularly indicated "town" everyone would post that every game. Which is why there isn't such a thing.

Yamato's post here highlights that nicely and I wanted to take an opportunity to point it out.

That being said, I take it personally as a failure to ditch my meta and will continue under that assumption. I will prove my alignment, and I will not be lynched. If I am lynched this game I am absolutely at a loss to improve. This statement should not indicate my alignment as it is WIFOM.


Coag who do you want for mayor and am I swinging BH?
