Koshi and JAT are possibly the two most hated players on all of TL, of course everyone used their powers on the two of them.

Debatable.

Fair enough, but you'll have to come up with an alternative hypothesis for why a good number of townies from various walks of life (Rso or VE or Slam who could have won with town for example) would townread you but also inexplicably not want to work with you and/or follow your plans. You're an intelligent player, so it's not that they think you're dumb; I believe it's an issue of personal animus.

Rso DID work with me and told me everything she knew so you can take her off the list. VE did not work with ANYONE so you can take him off the list. Slam was not town and also not working with anyone so you can take him off the list.

Yeah well I personally find you to be an excellent person and definitely the reasons VE and Slam didn't work with you, who was town, was that you were too excellent, smart, friendly, nice to be around, and generally pleasant.

Seriously though you played fine so the only explanation is that either 1. people are bad or 2. people irrationally don't like you, and the average TL Mafia player is really good, so 2 is correct.

Man I gotta say though, I basically had no clue what was going on that game. Just keep on shooting townies and riding my claim, that was the strat.

Also GreyMist according to post 106 in the scum QT it's ok to submit nks via scum qt rather than PM

dang if only my scumteam was as on point as I was bats would have lived

So honestly JAT you're a fine dude if a bit abrasive... but I hate your screenname. Every time I read it I'm enraged. No joke, naming yourself after the innocent alignment makes you a person of awful taste. You're a fine player and if you had some name other than yours I'd be fine with you. As it stands I will never accept you.

lol, that's fine with me. That's actually really funny.

I know it's a stupid reason but I'm a man of principle. And sometimes standing on principle means being stupid.

Actually, now that I think about it, being stupid for principled reasons is basically the definition of being a man of principle. After all, it's easy to be principled when that's the SMART choice. It's easy to say "I don't approve of eating cabbage" if you hate the flavor of cabbage. But if you love the flavor of cabbage? Or if cabbage is vital to your survival? Or if everyone's eating cabbage and you look like a fool for opposing its irresistible lure? It is only in these situations that your anti-cabbage attitude really represents principle, rather than convenience.

So I am not principled in spite of my stupidity in disliking JAT.

No, I am principled BECAUSE of my stupidity in disliking JAT.

It is my stupidity, it is the uselessness of the gesture, the unhelpfulness of the hatred, that makes it principled. It is because I am awful that I am great! It is because I am a tyrant that I am a hero! I am Blazinghand! RAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWR

I definitely enjoyed the fact that marv had a red check on VA, I knew he did, it was pretty clear that it was true, and somehow the lynch never happened.
