I would very much rather lynch a lurker than go no-lynch. Would you rather:

a) be at LYLO with one or more players that are completely unreadable
b) be at LYLO slightly earlier with players you can at least try to get a read on

Lurking townies aren't just "not useful to town", they're an actual liability later in the game.

Obviously you should lynch scum reads over lurkers, but you shouldn't give lurkers a free pass either.

Okay guys, listen up. I can read vloski like a Dr Seuss book. And he is without a doubt town. I've like, never been wrong about him.

So, ##vote: Spicydinosaur

For all his posts being about game theory (lynching lurkers, etc.) and none of them having any intention of finding scum.

@Skanjab1s You throw a vote on me for theory yet your only post is just to throw a vote with nothing else. Town read for now.

What is it that causes you to have a town read on Skanjab if all he's done is "throw a vote with nothing else?"

Town read because it would be an incredibly stupid move if he were mafia. His reason for voting me is extremely weak and given his position of having 0 posts before this... it draws too much attention to him. He's not trying to blend in with the crowd and feels more akin to a new townie player than anything else.

Umasi comes across as a townie to me, albeit one that was gotten to by ivloski.

What if he was successful in lynching you? That seems a pretty good reason to come out of the fold.

Also this "mafia like to hide" shit bothers me, because you're making sweeping generalizations about what everyone does in the same situation. If all mafia acted alike this game would be super easy. Some mafia are just as in-your-face as I can be at times. And it's not just you that's said it, so don't think I'm picking on you.

My posts purpose is to lynch scum, something I haven't seen from you. You criticize me for my post yet it gives you a townread on me? Rather contradictory.

Skanjab what is your biggest problem with spicydino is he has had good post on the lurker issue, I am getting a town vibe from him. The strongest read I have is on iVlosk as town t this point, but a wish he would curse less. xzav is also giving me a very strong town vibe. Umasi is my only scummy read as he fueled the iV rant even after it most likely should have been moved on from it. Also the whole brocuff thing. Also what are your guys thought on finding a serial killer?

That's the thing, he felt so abrasive it was hard for him to be scum, but backing down and being like "he's probably town" is annoying, because I feel like he'll bring it up again pointlessly, merely to spite me. And my gut instinct then will be to say "he's mafia!!!!" which is WRONG. And it's BAD for him to do that.
regardless.
The first thing was his preemptive reasoning, which I took as an excuse, and still kind of do. there's nothing for him to be afraid of if he's town, so it's kinda scummy! Might as well talk about it.
When he comes back and tells us to vote on him, I couldn't think of any possible fucking reason other than "he's stirring the pot, and that's scummy." Apparently, it was to generate discussion, but I still don't know why he'd go back and bring it up again in the manner that he did. It felt like he was just drilling it in that he wasn't giving an excuse (and I still think that he FUCKING WAS, because it gives him reasoning to fall back on, and quickly assuages peoples doubts of him, but that doesn't make him mafia).
When Xzav pulled off of him, I don't know why he kept poking me to go at him. That's stupid! Why would he want me to stay on him? That's....bad. It means my vote is on the wrong person. This confused me.
And threatening to lynch me if my list of reads was unsatisfactory is stupid if he's done fuck all anyway.


What really makes me feel he's town though is that he says he's abrasive for shits and giggles, because it fits in with the way he'd been playing, because he never felt antagonistic, just trolly, which isn't necessarily scum.

I think that made sense.

Also, iV, me wasting my vote isn't your FAULT, but it sure as shit is your CONCERN, because you want scum lynched.

I am not meaning to be emotional, what I realized is that he was stirring me up, and that's what I was referring to. For a while I felt like he was egging me, and then I realized he was DEFINITELY egging me..
but I came to the conclusion that doesn't make him mafia or town, it just makes him annoying and antagonistic.
I was wrong when I thought he started the use of the word brofists, but I do not like how he ran with it. It still annoys me, because it's nothing but misdirecting to me
and the main reason I had for thinking he was scum, was his stupid antagonism.
That's just me being a whiny emotional bitch.
The reason I've gone afk for about an hour at a time is I've been trying to cool my head, and then I get back and he posts some shit about me drowning in my own mediocrity and I think "ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS"
So although I'd still like to lynch him, god knows I'd like to lynch him, out of spite, I've decided it's a bad idea. I originally pressured him on that stupid and inconsequential point (preemptive excuses) because I wanted to get discussion rolling, and I got overly emotional, in the face of him.
I'm rambling, it's late, but I'm not tired. so I'll try to consolidate if anything is confusing.

"pulling out"
teeheehee.

Oh yeah? Well as soon as that random OMGUSer shows up, Im gonna take my vote of him and put it on you. The accumulated filth from all your badness and lack of player reading ability will foam up about your waist and you will look up and shout "Save me!" ... and I'll whisper "No."

How does that make you feel?
