Lol at people speculating about my absence or lack of followup when I explicitly said I had work coming up near the end of my posting.

I'm gonna catch up later but to answer HF: Calling it sheeping was a joke, I just thought you had a good point on SL being unreasonably angry/defensive and voted to add to the pressure on sicklucker to explain himself. I asked my question because I wanted to see why sicklucker was tilting.

Also I am completely serious about trying not to get nightkilled n1. Across all sites I play at I've literally gone half a year since I got to see d2 as town. Meanwhile as mafia I've had to drag myself through two final 3's and a final 4. I really don't like playing mafia and I like playing town, but my current style isn't letting me get there for whatever reason, and I'm pretty pissed that I sign up for a game and only get to play 3 days of the side I want to play while dragging myself through 2+ weeks of the side I don't want to play so I'm not a completely shitty teammate. To me being mafia is a fulfillment of the social contract of the game - we can't all be town all the time, so every now and then you have to pay your dues by playing the foil. And I feel like I've gotten a raw deal lately because 80% of my play time has been as the foil.

The really maddening thing is that I don't even feel like my d1 play has been all that good in the games I've been town. It's been okay I guess but I never feel like I've gotten close to solving the puzzle. I could be okay with dying n1 if I caught the scumteam or even felt like I'd gotten close, but I never really did. And again with bigger names like marv and HF in the game, maybe it's silly to even worry about it, but the data says that my play style = nightkilled often, and my self-evaluation doesn't change that.

So yeah, I wanted to sandbag d1. I've deliberately made my play style the last 2 games trolly and bullshit to start day 1 so that I won't be in everyone's townpile for trying hard to kickstart things. I wanted to do the same thing here, but it's getting in the way of actually chasing my lead on sicklucker, and I'm not going to sandbag so hard that I stop actually playing the game right. If I still get nightkilled here to start off then I'll just have to try something else next game.

Also I'm pretty sure I didn't actually ask my question well before work, so I'm gonna try again.

sicklucker, I remember you saying that "your meta says" you get upset at early roleclaims. It seemed like really weird wording, because it's almost like you were explaining yourself following directions. "My meta says I get mad at Robik for claiming, so I got mad at him." Maybe I read too much into it but it seems really formulaic, almost like a checklist. Needless to say, I think that's far more likely to come from a mafia POV. What did you mean by that statement?

Requoting here for reference sake:
