Reading up
I've got a smash tournament today so I don't have quite as much time to write this up as I would have liked. Here comes the abridged version.
-Why use the daykill at all?
I wasn't joking when I said I had to. I have two abilities that have to be used before the end of D2 or else I die. I could have opted to save the daykill for tomorrow, but feel the other one is much more consistent for that stage in the game.
-Why target J?
First and foremost, J is a slot I have historically had a very hard time reading. Any quote unquote meta slot generally throws me for a loop, and beyond that J if any of those were to be likely to pull the wool over my eyes it would probably be him. I also found it a little alarming how many of the new players are already buddy buddy with him, which could lead to them just following his directions instead of pushing to find scum on their own.
-BUT WHAT IF J WAS TOWN *******?
Odds are, he is! That's always town's advantage, having the numbers. But a) my daykill is confirmed to not end the dayphase, and b) J is one of the more connected slots in the game already. I was willing to pull the trigger because even if we did get a J town flip, it kicked us out of the bull**** RVS stage so we can actually play mafia as well as the most valuable thing you can receive in this game, which is modconfirmed information.
You guys kick around this post for a while, I need to go do video games. When I get back there's like 3 players I want to touch on, and hopefully they'll do more things while I'm gone too.
I don't buy this. The following are quotes from the above quote cut up

This doesn't explain why you used the daykill at the beginning of the day, and I 100% doubt Ryker would make a compulsive Day1/2 dayvig.

I absolutely hate that you stole Ryker's reasoning for shooting Evil Eye. That's just some meta garbage

That never happened. When you shot not a single new player had made a single comment on J except for Mallereon who was voting for him.

You say that as if it was the only way. RVS always ends in every game, you doing a dayvig early in day 1 does not help us, the potention of killing a townie right off the bat is not equaled by staying in RVS for a page or two.
Plus, J was not "connected". He made a single post, without any responses done to him that were of value. Presneting it like J dying would give us information is just a lie.
Oh yeah, I think you're a bit of a loon right now mallo. Not sure what kind of loon quite yet but I've never see someone dig so deeply into something that doesn't even have a solid explanation in the first place. and instead somehow skipped the hypothesis part in your crackpot science theory on why Glyph would do X instead of Y based on events not determined in this game. Some people in this world might call it reaching.
This is a terrible post. Removing pro-town reasoning from an action is not worthless
Glyph's first reasoning for shooting me is decent enough for me. His second reasoning is pretty illogical to me. Mainly because that was not even true considering most the new players were warning people who've played with me for years to be afraid. The "kicking us out of RVS" is kind of null and also just shooting in D1 RVS and killing my slot would have been bad for the remainder of the game.
It was literally a 50/50 shot and I was lucky enough to choose right, but in the end I think the shot was a terrible idea besides the fact that it generates discussion.
Why are you giving him a pass when he openly made up a reasoning to defend him shooting you?
On page 5 and Soup is doing nothing but obstruct Glyph pushes
Role fishing like crazy. Comment about hoping good players stay alive sounds more like trying to look town than actually being town. But mostly the first part. Would like to see some more pressure on this from others.
You post claiming you have a second, compulsive ability that is best used on day 2, you telling us that is fine, but someone asking you what that ability is is role fishing? He's not role fishing, because you
already roleclaimed. Asking what that second role is is actually important, as you used it as your defense for why you day vig'd today, but then failed to explain it.
Wow I was not expecting to find so much I didn't like so quickly, I'm actually going to post this now even though I've barely read up. I'm going to keep reading, but yeah this is where I am
