Marv hasn't been useless. He just told us that he might be somewhat useless in the near future.

That onegu is ACTUALLY doing some misrepresentation

the thing is, Eden can't possibly believe i'm mafia after my play so far this game, and he can't possibly believe i'm mafia for acting like a stubborn child.
so he's basically just annoyed that i'm not doing what he thinks i should be doing, which is pointless.

And don't even focus on marv he's said way too many things re:vivax/gobble etc that I've been thinking to be mafia
|
meh tbh i got the same vibe at a couple of points. i ignored it because i figured if you were town it would work itself out, and later because i felt your push on Vivax was pretty townie
imma wait for him to finish catching up and see where he stands before i worry about it. but go ahead in the meantime

Pointless but very understandable.

i totally fucking can believe the latter, don't think it hasn't crossed my mind. you're right about the former and the former carries a lot more weight with any rational human being
but it has nothing to do with me. how does not having any leads and not trying to find anymore, being content instead to rest on a self-described leap-of-faith sheep read onto one scum when there are three to catch, constitute what you should be doing as a townie? like objectively that does not advance your win con
if you're just pushing my buttons i've got a deal for you so please if that's it just say so now

lynching mafia advances my wincon, and evidently right now i think sheeping kush is my best chance at lynching mafia

QED
false dilemma. the choice is not "sheep kush" vs "find more leads." you can do both and a townie should do both if they both advance your wincon
unless finding more leads somehow doesn't advance wincon... that's a tough sell, can you do it?

I don't think you interpreted it the same way Gobble did. Just because the misrepresentation is hard to recognize doesn't make it likely for town to make it.

Eden, when you read that you thought Haru was saying that artanis is scummy for buddying scum?
