Are you saying that men are not in favor of women's rights?

I reject the notion.

initial thoughts from prior games-

I'd prefer to put Cell C (my cell) on Day 3 since Marv and Oats are experienced and hopefully will be active enough to have good filters to work with. Day 3 seems ideal to me because it means that there is more accountability for what they post (since one of us is flipped) and I am hoping you'll all see I'm town by then.
Day 4/5 is alright I guess because I think I make more use of filters/prior quotes than other players, so if I'm around longer it means more filter to use. But, 3 would be my pick.

I wouldn't mind Cell E going earlier because in the games I've read/played with her, ninjabunnies tends to be more active early game and less active on later days. lilwade has been lower-activity regardless of the game day. Dunno Apathy.

Thats why we go DACBE.
C for guaranteed 1 scum lynch (unless marv derps) while A and D goes first. B for more risks and E being the most risky group to lynch into.

Why does mm1's entrance not disturb you bunnies?

Funny thing, I actually thought the same way he thought and wanted to wait until seeing lil's entrance before commenting on it.

You do give off a way to stiff vibe for me right now. Like you're constantly on edge for some reason.
Your very first post hit me as... not funny (I'm not giving you a bad time for that) at the same time it sounds like you're actually trying to somewhat defend yourself in that post. It's just a really odd mixture between people trolling, you trying to dig in as well but in the end we get some super awkward post from you.

And that feeling continues with your posts later on. You start off saying you like me towards a post from me that was clearly not to be taken seriously, again trying to keep the ball of "I can shitpost too!". I don't have a problem with that one post actually, not at all and no I'm not taking it seriously.
But you do end up going afk, get back in the thread and you're super serious when nothing has changed. My joke of a proposal (really I think it's good, the reasoning behind putting E last I mentioned just happened to be a joke) still is largely the same and you somehow think that's odd now.
So you actually went serious mode but I don't see why. You didn't do anything at all.

Furthermore:

more proof of you being unable to just be straight up with us. What's that "My mind can change" doing there? Of course people's minds can change, or so I'd hope. What's the point of mentioning that?
This is in essence exactly what I'm talking about. I think you're really scared and you're unconsciously (?) already setting up a retreat when there should be no need to be so wishy washy.


TL;dr:
Whenever I read your posts I get the feeling that you lack the balls to actually just shitpost or say what you mean.
That is I don't get the feeling that you actually feel the need to post something more serious when you do but do so because you think you should.

Re: Apathy's campaign;

No one should ever vote for this guy. First and foremost, this quote:



He has already indicated that he has no intention of doing anything beneficial for others or town victory at the sacrifice of his own fun. Especially if that is in regards to moving his own cell from last to anywhere else. A mindset like that determining something that can have great impact on the game will only lead to the detriment of women's rights and the town as a whole.

Further, there are some strange things about him that would ward me off otherwise. First, this guy has been like a sleazeball politician trying to get votes. He talks with people and they say "ah i would change this about that order", and then he does it and says "see i did it, vote for me!". I don't want such desperation in my leaders. Secondly, he had that strange unexplained comment early on about marv before marv had talked that wasn't explained. Thirdly, he has been calling group A a shitstorm non-stop but for no particular reason. To me it indicates that he knows something more about my group than I do. I look at my group and I don't particularly see some of the more rude/boisterous people I have played with on these forums so I can't think he is referring to that. So what the hell is he referring to? Seeing as how it is his primary justification for wanting the group early.

Re: Order of cells

I am pretty much at the same place that BH is at.

I think D and E are interchangeable for first and 2nd.

D is a miserable group with low participation rates and a bunch of smurfs; last time I was mayor I made the mistake of leaving that group until later and going for the 2 groups I felt were slam dunks early. It backfired badly, because they still didn't participate.

Group E seems way too straightforward to leave until anywhere past 2nd. Apathy has done some questionable things and his mind is in the gutter, but he has tried to be the center of attention which gives him back some town cred for me. Bunnies is being wayyyyyyy to similar to the last cell game. She wants her cell in the same place, she is making no effort to get involved in mayor race, she isn't screaming town; just a lot of things pointing to the same play style that was mafia last time. As for wade, that guy is town. Like my top town read. His entrance into the thread was just pure BALLS. His first full-fledged game and he does that? If he is mafia, he has pocketed me already.

As for the remaining order, BH proposes ABC. My only issue with that is C being last, and it really isn't my issue. A lot of people just say that scum Marv is super easy to read, and so in the event he is scum and everyone knows it early on; it would be shitty to have an easy scum read sitting at the end cuz we may not get to him. Currently I have no preference between the order of ABC as 3,4 and 5; other than I would prefer C not be 5.

I disagree with you about your own analysis of your game lol. That's the 'murrican in me. You being the person I have played with most on these forums, from what I have seen, have a historically weaker late game. Your strength from my perspective has always been early projection of town on an overflowingly town level. Which you didn't do last cell and I thought you were scummy for and you aren't doing now.

And who's got the bad read? Pretty sure you have ML'd me as town quite a few times

@bunnies:
It's been so long since I've ridden a bike I don't think I can give you any guidance for the tires :D

I don't really like Apathy/Marv's vote on BH because I don't really understand the "misguided" comment at all.
It doesn't really make much sense to me when
(1) batsnacks votes Blazinghand
(2) Apathy + marv say batsnacks is [u]misguided[u], then vote for Blazinghand
And when reading batsnacks I didn't really see what there was to be misguided (or correctly-guided) about in his non-crazy posts.

I get what you are saying about PA voting HF for mayor then seeing HF as mafia, but those two things honestly feel kind of unrelated to me. I voted for HF, but it wasn't because I felt he was more town, it was more because the order he provided seemed more likely to get two things I was hoping for him (E first, C fourth).
It doesn't matter much now, but in retrospect I think voting for a player that gives potential choices (such as indicating they may pick one of two choices) rather than a firm ordering is bad for town... but that's a lesson to try to remember in Cell 4, I guess.

If ritoky has always been town in forums I'll probably focus more on just this game from him to try to get reads.

Batsnacks did retarded shit and nobody knows what he is doing. He looks like he believes his retarded shit is doing good and has a plan™ this belief makes him look towny even if the belief is retarded and isn't actually helping. His actions are misguided. Like. Wtf. How do people not understand this yet?

like if ninja or oats or whoever can give me a single reason why BH is town, I'm all ears.
