No but seriously. Since when is saying "I like this post" forced. What are you smoking HF? thank you for calling hf out. this is part of the reason I am paranoid. his claims come off as kinda skewed to fit his conclusion. not enough to pin him down as mafia though. grack, you can be town for now because you also had one post that made me laugh earlier That's pretty much my goal every game. I'm done crafting long posts at the start of games. I'm at the same place as you on Holyflare though. His case (removing the "I like this post" part) essentially states: *Ticktock made a wifomy entrance post. *Ticktock stated he dislikes talking about setups and then talked about the setup, which is a contradiction, but he'll have to sell me on why it's a scummy one. Would the post be scummy if he made his post without stating that setup discussion is boring? Also, to end up here after reading the posts seems like he's going way overboard.

I will never in 1000 fiery years vote anyone other than ticktock today. This is a terrible post. Not only does he hard defend ticktock for absolutely no reason whatsoever but somehow he doesn't see how someone complaining that setup is useless and boring but then talking about setup is scummy. Ticktock literally has 0 content in his filter in comparison to actual insights in his last game. Ticktock's only content is game mechanics which he complained about doing IN THE SAME POST. No content, all fluff, didn't return from dinner. Mafia. If he's not mafia then grack and new guy certainly are.
Your post was really bad grack.

Like people picking up on the semantics of the wording are bad and should feel bad. Sure he didn't say that mechanics are useless but his mindset is off from what he's actually posting and it looks solely like he's trying to skate by with low content posts.

But which is it?! Is he trying to skate by with low content posts or is he not coming back from dinner?
He did have a better start in that last game. If he's actually just bad at playing as mafia I'll vote him.
Also I did not hard defend him. What I did is what we call in the business a "chain saw defense." The idea is to hit the accuser with the chain saw while the other scummer has him distracted.

"I didn't defend him that hard, I just enacted a type of defense which is where I attack the accuser even though I haven't stated a town-read on the accused."
That's what I just got out of your post.

What's up with superbia? A dozen one liners in a row, his plan is to get lynched, some of his speculation seemed misinformed. It's like he didn't sleep for 24 hours, drank a litre of coffee then started playing mafia. At least it looks like he's motivated to post.

No but there's a key distinction here. In my opinion for it to be a hard defense I would have to provide arguments NOT to lynch ticktock. I did no such thing. My game plan was much more subtle. Here I avoided the hard defense trap while still landing a powerful blow.

Can we just say fuck the game and be honest for a second?
Like step out of the game for a second because I want this question to be taken seriously. I don't want your alignment or whatever to influence your answer.
Are you mafia?

Yes, I am an arrogant and presumptuous troll who has trouble persuading others, but I am not under some suspicion. Literally the only person scum-reading me is Tumblewood, and he hasn't given a half-decent reason as to why he did.
I've read 0 games of this site. So much for being 99% sure.
I don't think I'm an expert as far as knowing your play goes. We've discussed this already.

This is one of the most misused arguments on the forum. Calling somebody lynch bait doesn't equal calling him town. It just means he's lynch bait. It's like he's trying to get Calix to scumread Never, but he isn't scumreading him either.

They seem pretty null to me. HF opens like that as any alignment. Palmar only did some setup speculation. Super could just be handing out a few easy townreads to potentially dangerous players here.
Super can get lynched if he so badly wants to, I'm down.

Like there were a lot of places where he could have posted something substantial and he just made some joke comment instead. - I don't like Tumblewood still.

i'm just not gonna waste 4 hours explaining myself to some scrub who thinks he's caught me in a lie On September 09 2016 10:23 NeverUnlucky wrote:On September 09 2016 10:21 Tumblewood wrote:
pls stop making me explain myself It's kind of the point of the game. If you have reads but can't express them, no one's going to follow them, and you're as useless as town-Palmar. Explain them. see? it's not even my reads that are unexplained. it's my non-reads. like I have to waste my time explaining why you're all scrubs and I'm not scum for saying something but not drawing a conclusion from it The worst post of this game and I've only read like 8 posts. but that makes it seem less bad if it's only one of 8 posts you've seen On September 09 2016 11:33 fuba wrote:On September 09 2016 09:26 Tumblewood wrote:
fuba also seems pretty cool While I appreciate it, it always makes me uncomfortable when people town read me, especially D1 XD sorry nvm you're scum + Show Spoiler [in case you couldn't tell] +that was a j o k e and I still think he is town can I just complain about new players for a sec? cause I'm reading some posts by NU and he keeps attacking people for being lazy. I get the intentions and that may or not be valid on your home site but here on TL lazy is the meta. it's like a competition for who can look the laziest each game. I want to sheep you hf but after last game I'm paranoid I'll take "avoiding the main points being raised against me" for £200, Alex. Add a dose of unnecessary off-topic whining about Teh N00bs. Oh noes. That last line is really scummy. It's the classic "oh I'll give lip service to lynching X scummy person but then I'll give some bullshit excuse to not follow up on it" scum tactic when the scum feel compelled to talk about their scummy partners but don't actually want to bus them - there is literally NO reason to not vote for Ticktock at this point in time. Paranoia isn't a logical excuse - wouldn't you want to clarify your suspicions by pressuring Ticktock? Why is no-voting better exactly? - The only point of Holyflare's that I find compelling is Ticktock's contradiction ("I find setup spec boring, here's some setup spec") since it makes his point look like filler. Everything else is just background noise compared to that point imo. tl;dr: Grackaroni/ Tumblewood/ Ticktock are my scum-reads and the fact that they are low-key defending each other just makes me feel more confident that lynching among these three is the best option. So: - I'm town - My one townread is town. - All my mafia reads are mafia. Good reads. In all seriousness, nice pocket regardless of your alignment. Townpass-ish! What do you think of NeverUnlucky? You've played with him before, right? I have. He's a scrub but he's town. He's more proactive and abrasive compared to his scum play. He gets mislynched a lot given he's presumptuous, arrogant, prone to trolling, has poor persuasion abilities, etc, so I am not surprised that he's under some suspicion. I am also 99% sure that he's read like, one or two past games on this site and that's why he's acting like he knows what everyone's meta is. Recently, he read one of my scum games from five months ago and now thinks he's an expert. That's how he rolls. Is he prone to be abrasive and yet form no actual opinion on someone? He calls TW 'lynchbait', which suggests he is TRing him, but nothing suggests he is reaching any actual conclusion. Seems weird to put seemingly that much energy/emotion into something but reach no real conclusion. This is one of the most misused arguments on the forum. Calling somebody lynch bait doesn't equal calling him town. It just means he's lynch bait. It's like he's trying to get Calix to scumread Never, but he isn't scumreading him either.

HF opens like that as any alignment. Palmar only did some setup speculation. Super could just be handing out a few easy townreads to potentially dangerous players here. Super can get lynched if he so badly wants to, I'm down.
Verrryyy nitpicky. Incorrect on several points.
You OMGUSing?

Actually everything you said is incorrect.

Like people picking up on the semantics of the wording are bad and should feel bad. Sure he didn't say that mechanics are useless but his mindset is off from what he's actually posting and it looks solely like he's trying to skate by with low content posts. But which is it?! Is he trying to skate by with low content posts or is he not coming back from dinner? He did have a better start in that last game. If he's actually just bad at playing as mafia I'll vote him. Also I did not hard defend him. What I did is what we call in the business a "chain saw defense." The idea is to hit the accuser with the chain saw while the other scummer has him distracted. "I didn't defend him that hard, I just enacted a type of defense which is where I attack the accuser even though I haven't stated a town-read on the accused." That's what I just got out of your post. No but there's a key distinction here. In my opinion for it to be a hard defense I would have to provide arguments NOT to lynch ticktock. I did no such thing. My game plan was much more subtle. Here I avoided the hard defense trap while still landing a powerful blow.
Well what is your read on Ticktock then? You haven't made your stance on him clear.
What is your point with your last line? Why would you need to 'avoid a trap' anyway?
