To add: There's no reason for a town player to avoid discussing the leading lynch candidates.

I didn't say that, I said he's beating around the bush. Not that he's being indecisive.
As town, I don't think you should have gotten yourself in that kind of situation.

If you really think cakeman is scum, and the votes aren't going in your way, and you've done everything you think you can to convince town that you are not scum, lonemeow is not scum and cakeman is. Then you shouldn't vote lonemeow to save yourself because YOU THINK he's town, and the town sentiment clearly thinks you are scum. You saving yourself will just make you be a HUGE question mark for the rest of the game.


In that case town sentiment is so wrong that I am obligated to keep myself alive as the sole voice of reason to salvage a terrible situation. You are wrong sir. As any faction, one should never roll over and die.

I would of been happier if you felt obligated to not leave the thread for 24 hours.

You must know why your being lynched. At this point I would just get all your thoughts out. In the unlikely case that your town. Acting like its town's fault for your lynch is a bit egotistical.

LoneMeow, why do you think Hopeless looks better? How sure are you that Hopeless is scum since you still seem to be pressuring him?


He seems to exhibit a mindset I find pro-town lately. I'm very uncertain about him right now.

For example:

Why are you voting the same player as your scum read Oatsmaster?

Because Oats isn't getting lynched by the looks of things. There is sufficient reasoning to lynch either of them independently of the other.


This is pretty much the only acceptable answer from a town player, had he been defensive about it I'd have called him scum instantly.

Hopeless you only addressed one part of what I said. You said he wasn't beating around the bush, but I showed you multiple places where he is beating around the bush.

Do you disagree that he's beating around the bush in those quotes?

If your playing the game and trying your best as town then of course you shouldn't just allow your self to be lynched. But you did kind of allow this to happen. You complete absence from the thread is very telling and the strongest part of why your getting lynched.

I will say that in some cases of lurkers it would be easier to have them modkill themselves then have to waste a lynch on them.

first off modkilling oneself is not in the spirit of the game.

second, you're all seriously pressuring Hopeless solely on the point that he was afk for 24 hours? He can't do anything about that now but he seems to be putting in effort now.

I didn't say this at all. You should absolutely not roll over and die.

I was expecting 2 types of responses from you on this subject:

1. Egotistical, "i'm better than the other guy so i'd prefer having me alive"
2. Where you try to see where i'm coming from.

You went middle of the road. I don't know where that puts you. I think outright saying you would kill a someone you think is townie to save you is kinda weird. The act itself not at all. The way you explained yourself I think is ok too.

I equate waffle to beating around the bush. When LM mentions people are kind of scummy he says why. When he has reservations about someone he says why. You never have to drag it out of him. You instigated a confrontation with him at the start of the game when his meaning was abundantly clear: LM lurks hard. There is literally no other way to interpret his statement that makes logical sense in context. I would say that is your shortcoming in understanding him, not that he was being uncooperative or vague.

Nobody's getting modkilled. Not that at all.

I'm pressuring hopeless on what I think is a faulty lonemeow town read and the fact that he said he would kill somebody he thinks he's townie to save himself. I don't think a town would SAY that so early. Actually doing it much later is totally normal from both alignments.

I'm not advocating for self-modkillage.

Balla: If you've done everything you can and town still wants to lynch you, you should let them

Hopeless: No. I should save myself.

Jay: You didnt try hard enough. Why didnt you try harder Hopeless?

Hopeless: I'm hypothetically suggesting literally have a deciding vote to save myself. Should I take it?

Jay: But you shouldn't have been in that situation to begin with!
->This doesnt actually address what I said




Jay wtf can you read the argument I'm trying to address?
- Yes I played scummy. I'm trying to correct that. Your argument has no place in the context of my conversation with Balla.
- If I can save myself, I'm going to. It is the correct play based on the information available.




Balla are you taking issue with the fact that I brought up the point about how I'd lynch LM over myself? The context of "I want to lynch scumread, I do not want to lynch townreads" isnt clear?

Oh I agree completely. I am just being brutally honest.

No I never said that was the sole reason. It's a big part of the reason tho. Other things are
  • Him coming back in the thread sheeping thread sentiment and trying to get Oats lynched

  • Writing up a case only when forced too instead of bring his own reasons initially

  • Actively lurking


Do you think these are valid reasons to lynch someone suki?

I think the same can be stated of cake and LoneMeow who both have been really noncommital in their reads and who haven't really been contributing (aka active lurking).

Hopeless does come back into the thread sheeping Oats, and I called it out. However, his case against Oats was well-written. His case against cakeman also mirrored my thoughts on cakeman that I was in the middle of writing a case on.

He wasn't forced to build a case on cakeman

He's not actively lurking right now.

If the biggest reason why he's scum is that he was missing for 24 hours then I'm afraid I can't justify lynching Hopeless over cake and LoneMeow today.

I'm taking issue with the fact that you said it so early when it wasn't even close to coming to a situation like that yet. I don't know why you felt the need to add that you would lynch him to save yourself at that point in time. It wasn't even close to lynch time.

To me, it's kind of like some sort of weird slip of information bias.

Regardless, we've said enough about the subject. Like I said your followup is ok so.
