You can play to win and also play to have fun.
I'm getting upset with this because although I do stuff that may seem stupid, they often bring good information to the thread. And when I was really in danger of being lynched I've managed to show I wasn't Mafia.
For example, rsoultin caught Rels when I claimed being roleblocker at night. Sicklucker looked most likely scum when he got off of Shining's wafon to join mine. If shining flipped red he was certainly dead in the next day.
I am carried in a lot of games, especially when I'm Mafia. ButI manage to have a good win/loss ratio. Usually it's because good players caught good information that I have developed. And that's what people fail to see in those "plays" I do.
Maybe NOT doing those plays is better? Maybe. But it is intentionally trolling just to throw the game? No, I'm still playing to win.

Yes, sometimes doing something stupid by chance will lead to a good result. That doesn't mean it is good to do stupid things.

Ok, but what I'm trying to convey is doing stupid stuff doesn't mean a player isn't trying to win
Anyone could play the game with simple logic. It just isn't fun. Going for the gr8 plays is way funnier. That's all.

Cool. But not going for the great plays will actually win town more games and is the strictly better play. So yes, in a sense you aren't trying to win. At least if you know at that point that what you are doing is stupid.
It's not only about you. Maybe you think being retarded is funny but the other people on your team may think differently and THEY might have a lot less fun if they lose because of you.

Marry me everyone!
It will leadf to good resylts!

context: I have not read a single word of this game so this was definitely not a critique of your gameplay, i didn't even know you were in this game.

Well, that's their problem, not mine.
And it's very very easy to read me when I do those kind of things. Rayn lynched me when I was scum. Rsoultin can easily townread me. Truffle easily townread me. It's all about looking if I had Mafia motivation behind it and the fact is that I had none.
And no, if I choose to take a less effective path to win the game doesn't mean I'm not trying to win. That is a stretch of the concept. As I've said, some stupid moves CAN make me be scumread but it also can bring very good information in thread, in a game where information is everything.
Anyway, no use discussing this since I'm not willing to change my opinion not will you change yours. It's just a shame people take things so seriously that it influences their emotion. Life is already too serious to take this forum in such depressive way

No GB. its very hard toi not lynch yiu when you do those things.

It isn't that easy. Best example: your attempt at a "great play" when you got yourself lynched instead of your redcheck.
But you are right - berating you is kinda pointless.

hey guys, let's try to be reasonably nice to each other, yeah? we're all TL mafia people here

Just to say that I understand what you guys are saying 100%. I just don't feel like playing differently.
But I will try to do in the next game as I already said. I will give it a shot

I was halfway tempted d2 to claim a red check on GB to see what happened. Great big plays am I right?
